The daughter was ruthlessly driven out of the wealthy family and went to the countryside
Chapter 58 Picked up a litter of wild eggs
Shen Dong came back from outside and saw Shen Juan learning to drive an electric car, so he said, "You are learning to drive an electric car. When will you learn to drive a car?"
"I'll go after I harvest the sweet potatoes." Liu Juan stopped the car. "You've signed up for a week. It's time for the first test, right?"
Shen Dong said: "I have an appointment for the exam tomorrow, I will definitely pass it."
Liu Juan smiled and said, "Then we will wait for your good news."
"Don't worry, I will definitely pass." Shen Dong walked towards Liu Juan, "Come, let me ride it. I have never ridden an electric bike before."
Liu Juan gave the car to Shen Dong: "Ningning bought it."
Shen Dong knew it well: "I know, except for her, no one in our family can afford it."
……
On the mountain, the grass seeds scattered by Shen Xue Ning have grown into a lush green meadow, a beautiful scene.
Grandpa Niu said to Shen Xue Ning: "We have raised the cattle for half a month, now we can let them out for a walk."
Shen Xue Ning's eyes lit up. She had been looking forward to this day for a long time: "Then let's release it."
Put the cattle on the hill and you won't have to cut grass anymore.
During this period, Shen Xue Ning cut grass every day, and all the grass around the village was cut by them. If it weren't for the sweet potato vines, the cattle would have had no grass to eat.
Uncle Niu opened the cowshed, took a bamboo pole in his hand, drove the cattle out, and drove them up the mountain.
Iron nets have been built around the mountain to keep the cattle out.
After the cattle came out of the cowshed, they had fun and were very happy. They ran up the mountain by themselves, mooing as they ran, which sounded very cute.
Shen Xue Ning followed behind and went up the mountain. The cattle each found a place and lowered their heads to eat the tender grass. The scene in front of her reminded her of a poem: "The sky is vast, the wilderness is boundless, the wind blows the grass low and the cattle and sheep can be seen."
After watching for a while, Shen Xuening returned to the cowshed. There was more important thing to do, which was to use a bamboo rake to pick out the grass stalks left over by the cows, and then use water to wash the floor to keep it clean so that the cattle would not get sick.
Shen Xuening walked into the cowshed with a bamboo rake in her hand and started working diligently.
After a while, Master Niu came back.
"Ningning, you should take a rest for a while. I can do these things." Uncle Niu took an iron rake and used it to grab the grass stalks.
Shen Xue Ning was not comfortable using an iron rake, but a bamboo rake was more convenient, so she always used it.
"It's okay, I'll help you and we can finish it earlier." Shen Xue Ning said while working.
Uncle Niu is old now, and we can’t leave everything to him alone. If he gets too exhausted, there will be no one to help him, and that would be a waste of time.
Seeing that Shen Xuening was doing a good job, Uncle Niu didn't say anything.
It took two people three hours to finish the work together. You can imagine how long it would take for one person to do it.
After finishing the work in the cowshed, Shen Xue Ning went home to eat.
……
After lunch, Shen Xue Ning went to the next mountain.
Now she has contracted all these mountains and has to pay rent every year. She cannot just leave them empty; she has to plant something on them.
It is early August now. What can we grow on the mountain and sell in the winter?
Shen Xue Ning thought for a while, then took out her cell phone and searched: What can be planted in August?
After some searching, she decided to plant four medicinal herbs: angelica, wolfberry, astragalus, and ganoderma.
As for vegetables, we plant a lot in the fields at home, and it is not suitable to grow them on the mountain. Other crops are not suitable to be grown on the mountain either. As for fruit trees, they should be planted in spring. To sum up, planting those four kinds of medicinal herbs is the most important.
Shen Xuening found a reputable merchant and bought seeds of four kinds of medicinal herbs. Then she came to the broadcasting room and announced, "I am Shen Xuening. I need someone to help me weed the mountains. It's 50 yuan a day. Anyone who wants to help please come to my house."
The broadcast sounded and the whole village could hear it. Shen Xue Ning was afraid that no one had heard it clearly, so she repeated it twice and then went home to wait.
Soon, Mrs. Shen Da and Mrs. Shen Er came.
Mrs. Shen asked, "Ningning, are you hiring someone to weed?"
Shen Xue Ning nodded: "Yes, the mountain next to the cowshed, I will prepare Chinese medicinal herbs."
Mrs. Shen thought about her family, and Shen Xue Ning asked her daughter to work during the summer vacation, so she said, "Then we won't wait, let's go first."
Second Sister-in-law Shen had the same idea. She took her backpack and sickle and set off with First Sister-in-law Shen.
More villagers arrived one after another. Without waiting for others, they registered with Shen Xuening and went home to get their backpacks and sickles and set off.
A total of twenty-five people came to work. There were not many people in the village to begin with, and the old and the young had to be ousted. Some people were unable to come due to other matters, so twenty-five people were already quite good.
Seeing that no one came, Shen Xue Ning put on her backpack, picked up her sickle and went to work.
Arriving at the mountain, Shen Xue Ning looked around. Several villagers were scattered on the mountain. Those who had good relationships gathered together, cutting grass and talking.
Seeing that everyone was working and no one was slacking off, Shen Xue Ning stopped watching, found a spot and started mowing the grass.
The cut grass is put into a backpack and carried down the mountain to dry on flat ground. After it is dried, it is burned into ash and sprinkled on crops as fertilizer.
The grass on the mountain has never been cleared. It is lush and thick, with all kinds of grass. Some of the weeds are thorny and can prick your hands if you are not careful.
Shen Xue Ning cut a few times and got her hand pricked twice. She went back to find a pair of gloves, put them on, and her hand was no longer pricked.
Everyone worked diligently and more and more grass was cut.
Suddenly, Shen Xue Ning parted a bush and saw a nest of eggs: "Are these pheasant eggs?"
She asked Mrs. Shen beside her: "Auntie, do you think this is a pheasant egg?"
Mrs. Shen looked over and said with a smile, "It's a pheasant egg. You are so lucky. Everyone is cutting grass here, but you are the only one who found a pheasant egg."
"Since they are pheasant eggs, I'll pick them up." Shen Xue Ning took the backpack and picked up the eggs in the basket.
She counted them; there were twenty.
He became rich and picked up twenty pheasant eggs at once. After picking up the pheasant eggs, Shen Xue Ning took them back home.
By chance, Grandma Shen came to her house and saw that it was a pheasant egg. She couldn't help but smile: "There are many pheasants and rabbits in the mountains. I didn't expect you to pick up a pheasant egg."
Shen Xue Ning was curious: "Are there any more hares?"
Grandma Shen nodded: "Yes, but the rabbit ran very fast and no one could catch up with it."
"The ecology here is pretty good." Shen Xue Ning went to the kitchen, picked up the pheasant eggs and put them in the basin, and then continued to work.
In the afternoon, Grandpa Niu came to the foot of the mountain and said, "Ningning, these grasses are very tender. You can leave them for the cows to eat."
Shen Xue Ning looked at the pile of grass at the foot of the mountain and asked, "Is it okay?"
"Sure." Uncle Niu answered affirmatively.
