Ever since the seedlings were planted in the field, many people came to look at them. Seeing that Miaomiao didn't know each other, and couldn't figure out why, even if they asked Liu Yaoqing, they stopped thinking for a while.

Now it bears fruit, which has never been seen before. Some people saw Liu Yaoqing in the field and asked, "Brother Qing, is this a sower? I see that one tree can bear fruit for all ages. Your family has so many fields. You have to harvest a lot of fruit, right?"

"I don't know yet, I have to water it these days." Liu Yaoqing squatted down and grabbed a handful of soil, and it loosened after a while, it was too dry.

"I think it's a good thing." The man just squatted on the ground and didn't leave, chatting with Liu Yaoqing, and even reached out to touch the green tomato.

Heibei squatted silently on the side, staring at his own things closely, and Erha had already turned out his belly beside him, letting the soft belly hair enjoy the sunshine and make it warm.

"Hey..." Seeing that the man was about to pick it off, Heibei stood up, arched his back and made a warning sound.

Erha jumped up with a stride, ran away, bit Liu Yaoqing's trouser leg after a while, and dragged him over.

Seeing the host's arrival, the man let go of his hand in embarrassment, and asked, "Brother Qing, can I pick one of these to taste?"

They're all from the same village, they don't look up and look down, and if you ask me about the crops grown in other people's fields, it's nothing to pick one or two.Maybe I will go to his house to pick them next time. This is all coming and going, but this tomato is the only one in the whole village.

Liu Yaoqing shook her head, "You can't eat it now, it's poisonous."

The man stopped thinking as soon as he heard it, and took a few steps back, but he still didn't give up, and asked, "Why are you planting so much poison? Have you planted all the land in Zhezi's house? No serious food has been planted." .”

"I don't know if Fifth Uncle is at home, I have something to do." Liu Yaoqing didn't reply, and changed the topic.

That person was not ignorant, seeing that Liu Yaoqing didn't say anything and didn't insist on asking, he said a few more irrelevant words before leaving.

Brother Zhezi just came out of the field, and he had already heard what Su Qi said just now, he said worriedly: "Brother Qing, I'm afraid we won't be able to see such good things in a few days."

The neighbors in the village say that they can see each other with their heads up and down, and the relationship is pretty good, but there is also a competitive relationship. Everyone wants to live a better life.

"Brother Zhezi, let's go to Uncle Wu together. I just want to talk about this matter." Liu Yaoqing thought about it for a few days, and felt that the person who untied the bell had to tie the bell. The good things in the field had to be guarded against the villagers. People can also help guard against people outside, it depends on how to deal with it.

The two entered Fifth Uncle's house together, and they happened to be at home, so Liu Yaoqing gave Brother Zhezi a push and told him to talk.

He made it clear on the way, Liu Yaoqing could have said this, but he had a whim and asked Brother Zhezi to talk about it this time.The fields and everything belong to Brother Zhezi's family, and what is planted in the field is also Brother Zhezi's own property. In the future, if Liu Yaoqing is unable to help with something, Brother Zhezi will have to go up by himself.

But Brother Zhezi was somewhat reluctant, so he walked to the front with a sullen face, with one hand behind his back, shaking towards Liu Yaoqing.

Angrily stepped forward to hold that hand, Liu Yaoqing encouraged him.

"Uncle Wu, the fruit in my field is about to ripen. I saw that the people in the village were very interested, so I went over to ponder it when I had nothing to do. I thought, why not share one tree with each household, as long as I help people in other villages , don’t call it close.”

After speaking forcefully, brother Zhezi moved to Liu Yaoqing's side, closed his mouth like a clam and stopped talking.

Fifth Uncle Liu looked at Liu Yaoqing with a smile on his face and said, "Brother Qing, this idea is yours."

Liu Yaoqing was a little embarrassed and said: "My things are really good. Each household will share one tree for planting, and it will be able to grow a lot next year. But if anyone is greedy, I won't give that one tree."

"You are caring. Uncle Wu will guarantee you this matter. Shall we ask the old people in the village to be witnesses this time?" Uncle Liu frowned slightly and said, "Some people are shameless. It will be ruined, Brother Qing, what do you think?"

"If you want more than five families to recommend, you can recommend each other. If one of them breaks the rules, then none of the five families will have it." Liu Yaoqing said, "Usually, if the neighbors have a bad relationship, they can't find the recommended family. Of course you can’t get it.”

Every village has a lot of rat droppings, but most of the people are good, so Liu Yaoqing asked them to supervise each other, guarding against the people from other villages and also guarding against the bad ones in the village.

Liu Yaoqing didn't explain much about the yield, taste, etc. of the tomatoes. When the tomatoes are harvested and sold, people who will watch will naturally know.

After the matter was settled, Uncle Liu went out for a walk, gathering the respected old people in the village again.

After these people knew Liu Yaoqing's plan, they said with emotion: "Brother Qing is really a character. I was wondering what to do if the things in the field of Zhezi's house were to be remembered by others. No relatives, no one to help."

"My junior... hey..." The old man who spoke heard what the junior at home said yesterday, and planned to steal some fruits at night and come back to have a look. If there are good ones, there will be no shortage of seeds for next year.

There must be quite a few people who have this kind of thinking. As long as the moon is dark and the wind is high, there are so many fruits in the field, and it is impossible to pick one or two.

As a result, Liu Yaoqing planned to give it away directly, and if she got it openly, she can also take it out to plant next year, and just pay attention to people from other villages, and it doesn't take much trouble. All the old people agree, and most of the people in the village who heard the news agree. Only a few know that they can't find it. I don't agree with the clamor of the other four families who helped to elect.

They were all signed, drawn, and clearly written, so Liu Yaoqing took Uncle Liu to a small separate field of Brother Zhezi's house, "You choose one tomato plant from each household here, and tie it on it. Mark it with a cloth strip, and if you select it, you can’t modify it, and I often take care of it later.”

Even if each household in the village chooses one plant, there will still be some left in this small field, and Liu Yaoqing plans to save all the seeds for next year's use.

At that time, the one who was the first to sign the painting took a strip of cloth, walked around the field, and chose the strongest and tallest plant to tie it on.The simple farmer patted his chest bang bang, reassuring Liu Yaoqing, and he will help carry water in the future.

The other four families who were with the farmer also chose their favorite ones, and also expressed their willingness to help.

Others who are still waiting and watching see that the best ones have been selected, so they have to hurry up, otherwise there will be only small ones left in the future, and the results will not be many, so wouldn't it be a disadvantage?

Liu Yaoqing wrote down the tomatoes selected by each household, in a few rows and columns, clearly, in black and white, even if it is broken, it can't be changed.

After the division was over, the villagers went to look at their own tomato plant when they were free. If there were bugs, they immediately caught them and threw them away. They also helped to take care of the ones that were not selected. After dinner, he ran to the field and squatted, and other families followed suit, telling their children to watch over them.

After finishing all this work, some tomatoes in the field that Su Qi and the others were looking at finally began to turn red. The next day, the sun turned red and hung under the green leaves like little lanterns.

The tomatoes that Liu Yaoqing planted in the wasteland have been watered a lot these days, and they also specially retting the manure to water them. The next day, they lost flowers, and small tomatoes also grew.

"Everyone go and pick off the red one first." Liu Yaoqing said standing on the ground.

Su Qi and the others immediately ran into the field with a basket on their shoulders, found red tomatoes, picked them carefully, put them in the basket, searched the fields they were responsible for one by one, and went back to the field to look for Liu Yaoqing.

In order to calculate the yield per mu, Liu Yaoqing now records the weight of the tomatoes picked in each plot.

The first time I picked tomatoes was not many, Liu Yaoqing kept some to eat, and sold the rest to the villagers for five Wen a catty, and three Wen and half a catty.

There are also a variety of ways to eat, just wash it clean and eat it. It is crispy and sweet, cut into slices and boiled in soup. The sweet and sour taste also has an inexplicable taste, which makes people very appetizing. If you are willing For the eggs at home, make scrambled eggs with tomatoes, let alone the taste, everyone who has eaten it says it is good.

These methods are not difficult, and they can be understood after a few words. Most people who bought tomatoes went back and tried various methods.

"If any of you want to eat the tomatoes left over from us, you can use your own wages to pay for it, and it will count as three pennies per catty." Liu Yaoqing said to Su Qi and the others, "Why? Don't you believe what I said?"

"No." Su Qi's eyes widened. These days, because of eating well and drinking well, her whole body is like a sapling. She is thin and tall, her eyes are big and energetic, and she doesn't look like a little beggar back then. "Brother Qing, why do we also have wages?"

"Why don't you get paid?" Liu Yaoqing thought about it, and found that it was her fault.

He ordered these children to go to work every day, and they also went out to work every day, and never said anything else, Liu Yaoqing never talked about wages, and ignored it.

Brother Yu and Brother Xing helped Liu Yaoqing with their work, knowing that they were paid, and now they were thinking whether to buy tomatoes worth three Wen to taste.

"You two don't need to buy it, I'll bring some home later, everyone has them." Liu Yaoqing didn't forget that home either.

This time, Liu Yaoqing didn't ask Li Shi and Liu Quanjin to help in harvesting tomatoes, but they had to give them, and old man Liu, he was an elder after all, it wouldn't make sense if he didn't pay attention.

It can be regarded as using something to block them and block the mouths of the whole village. Liu Yaoqing doesn't like to ask people to find out what's wrong with his work. He doesn't lack food for the large fields around him, but he still has to clean up what needs to be rectified when he goes back.

"We don't need wages." Su Qi stared wide-eyed and shook her head, "Brother Qing, tell us to work here, just take care of food and housing. Those big families don't have people who work all the time, we just I want to be that..."

It was a servant of the landlord's family, who had signed a contract of sale, had no wages, and entrusted his life and death to the Zhu family.

Looking at the expectant eyes of these children, Liu Yaoqing suddenly felt her heart heavy.
