Reborn Brother Farming Story

Chapter 97 The Great Harvest

The original three-bedroom house is now lived by Liu Jinmei and Zhang Dashan, and Zhi Geer and Yan Geer live on the mountain, which makes them a lot more relaxed.

It's only been a few days since I saw him, Xiaobao has gained weight again, chubby, the flesh on his face is drooping, his stretched skin looks like it's about to explode, he looks white, but not as white as Liu Yaoqing.

"Xiaobao, you haven't studied?" Liu Yaoqing asked.

Frowning, Xiaobao said: "I'm not feeling well today, I haven't read it, I'll go tomorrow."

In the big house, Mrs. Li ran out with a smile and said, "Brother Qing is here. Please tell me that a teacher was invited to teach Brother Xing on the mountain. I wonder if I can ask Xiaobao to follow along. It's too far to go to the town to study. Little Treasure's body can't take it anymore. The schools in the nearby villages are not very good..."

"Auntie, did you tell Uncle about the marriage? Tell me again, what's going on." Liu Yaoqing said with a smile, "The gentleman I invited for Brother Xing is old, so I can only teach Xing One brother. Like Xiaobao, if you go up and down the mountain every day, you will be exhausted, so let’s go.”

Xiao Li smiled and didn't dare to say anything more.

The current Liu Yaoqing is not the same as before, if she gets entangled with Liu Yaoqing at this time, even if her family doesn't say anything, the villagers will drown her with their saliva.

Now that the Niu family brothers have eaten this meal, they have to go to work in the fields, or they will starve to death.In the past, Bao Geer and Lao Geer worked every day, and there was some harvest in the field, so the family would not be unable to open the pot. It was Liu Yaoqing who intervened and asked them to reconcile.

The man from the Niu family has been in prison, even if he didn't commit a crime, he can't get married again, and his life is ruined.

It's all because of Liu Yaoqing, he is smiling now, who knows if he will do something suddenly.Xiao Li felt a chill in her heart, trotted back and pulled Liu Quanfu who was sleeping.

One winter, there was no firewood to burn the kang at home, only the kang in the upper room was hot. Liu Quanfu could still sleep on the kang in the upper room during the day, but it was not easy to sleep on the kang in the upper room at night. Now, Liu Quanfu wished he could sleep every day. After sleeping in spring and summer, he had to sleep in autumn too, or else winter came and he couldn't sleep well.

"Uncle, did you tell Brother Zhi about the marriage?" Liu Yaoqing stood at the door and shouted loudly.

Liu Quanfu opened his eyes in a jerk, and said angrily, "So what's the matter? That's my brother's blessing. The wealthy businessman I met in the town specialized in selling silk and satin. He was only 31 years old. His wife died of illness and he had no children. Brother Zhi My son will be a sequel, and after a few years, I will marry him when I grow up, and I will drink hot food. The rich businessman has a name and a surname, and he is very infatuated with his wife. I have inquired about it, and there is nothing wrong with it."

Obviously, he had already thought up his speech, and when he saw Liu Yaoqing coming, he said it immediately.

"31 years old, how old is Zhige? Does this mean there is nothing wrong?" Liu Yaoqing thought it was funny, "My wife died of illness, but what illness do you know? She died after a few years of marriage, and a rich businessman came to the town to do business. Where is his hometown? , who else is in the family, do you know everything?"

Being asked by Liu Yaoqing straightened his eyes, Liu Quanfu's eyes were a little flustered.

"That's why I don't know." Liu Yaoqing affirmed, "How about this, you go back and ask the rich businessman, if you really want to marry Zhigeer, tell him to come to Shanggu Village and find me on the mountain."

"What does Brother Zhi have to do with you? Why do you care about this?" Liu Quanfu gritted his teeth.

"Because Zhigeer is working on the mountain, I have to be responsible to him." Liu Yaoqing said, turning her head to ask Zhigeer's opinion.

Brother Zhi nodded quickly and said, "It's all up to Brother Qing."

Coming out of the big house, Liu Yaoqing went to the upper room again, seeing the old man Liu sighing, there was an empty plate on the low table, and there was still a little bit of peanut crumbs in it, which should be eaten by Xiaobao, he was too lazy to talk, Just turned around and left.

Sending Brother Zhi back to the warm shed, Liu Yaoqing took Brother Zhezi's hand and said in a low voice: "Just now I took a closer look at Brother Zhi, he looks pretty good, he's not as good as Brother Yu, but compared to the brothers in the village, he's a little bit better." good-looking."

"Brother Zhi looks a bit like Brother Qing." Brother Zhezi has already seen it.

Brother Qing is so good-looking, so of course Brother Zhi is not ugly either.

The Liu family is not ugly, the old man Liu was also a good man when he was young, and the Li family is even more beautiful. The wives married by the sons are not ugly, and the children are all good-looking.

Thinking of this, Liu Yaoqing turned to look at brother Zhezi, and found that his appearance was also very good-looking, and their children would definitely not be ugly in the future.

"What are you laughing at, Brother Qing?" Brother Zhezi asked.

Only then did Liu Yaoqing realize that she was laughing out loud, "I was thinking that Liang Songzi's place is almost done, and we're going to start selling kiwi fruit. Thinking about it, I'm a bit reluctant... I'm going to build an icehouse next year to freeze the kiwi fruit. In it, you can eat it for a long time, so you don’t need to sell it out.”

"En." Brother Zhezi nodded in agreement.

The storage time of kiwi fruit is short, and if it is hung on the tree, it will only ripen completely by itself, so it can only be used to make wine.If you pick it off in advance, you can put it for a while, but it won't last long.

The kiwi fruit used for wine making has been taken out separately, put in a jar and sealed inside, and when the wine is ripe, there are still a lot of kiwi fruit left over, and Liu Yaoqing doesn't eat much every day, so she is thinking about selling it.

"The school was built." Liang Songzi received a reply from his friend, and immediately told Liu Yaoqing about it, "I asked my friend, and he helped me find out, saying that all scholars are willing to help Brother Qing."

"That's good. I have to trouble you to choose some representatives. I want to entertain them on the mountain and sell kiwis. They can bring them for others, but the money has to be paid on the spot." Liu Yaoqing roughly thought of a way, and then told Liang Songzi .

Liang Songzi was overjoyed, afraid that Liu Yaoqing would repent, so he hurried away.

There were not many outsiders coming to Shanggu Village, even in Shangnan County, very few outsiders could come in, and only poor businessmen, porters, etc. could come and go freely.

Now Liu Yaoqing has spoken out, calling for scholars!

When the letter was sent out, Liang Songzi's friends were happy and sad at the same time.

Everyone wants to go to the mountains as a representative, but there is also a poem in it, which is full of literary talent, and the viewer can feel the fierce and domineering rushing towards the face, and then it seems that there are three mountains and five mountains in front of them. Average pressure.

The meaning in the letter is very clear. If you want to go to Shanggu Village, you must not be too poor in literary talent, too far away from the person who wrote this poem, right?

Liang Songzi was gloating. Although he was born as a Jinshi master and received a small three yuan, he was a well-known talent, and he was favored by He Shuo, but compared to the talent of that poem, he knew that he was far away. Far worse.

Scholars have the best face, if their level is too low, I am afraid that they will not have the face to come to Shanggu Village.

"Brother Zhezi can also write poems." Liu Yaoqing lay on the kang, reached under the corn husk mat, and touched the surface of the kang.

Brother Zhezi was lighting a fire in another room, and smiled at Liu Yaoqing's words, but didn't speak.

The water in the pot is heated, and then boiled for a while, scoop out the hot water inside, and pour cold water.Bring hot water to the room here, put it on the bench in front of the kang, Brother Zhezi smiled and said: "Come wash your feet."

"I'll do it myself." Liu Yaoqing was still a little embarrassed, quickly took off her socks and put her feet in the wooden basin, "The kang is hot, no need to burn it anymore, it's not too cold."

"Well, the fire in the stove is almost gone." Brother Zhezi smiled and nodded, reaching into the water to grab Liu Yaoqing's feet.

White and tender, without any calluses, smooth to the touch, the soles of the feet will curl up when the toes are poked, Zhezi will always poke several times in a row.

Liu Yaoqing couldn't help laughing, "Okay, brother Zhezi. You also come to wash together."

The weather is actually not too cold, and there is no kang burner in the village.Liu Yaoqing was most afraid of the cold, and it was a little cold at night, even with brother Zhezi, she couldn't sleep well, so the kang in their house was the first to burn.

When it gets colder in a few days, the kangs that people live on the mountain will be heated together, and there will be hot water every day, so the pots and stoves on Liu Yaoqing's side don't need to be heated separately.

This house has a door leading to the outside, and there is another door connecting the house with the kang and the house with the stove, so that you don’t have to worry about the cold wind coming in when you go out, which is especially convenient in winter.

Early in the morning, Han Da and the others had dinner and came to find Liu Yaoqing, which was agreed long ago.

"Is the wooden box ready? Then pack the kiwi today." Liu Yaoqing yawned.

The wooden box is made of six wooden boards, and the four sides are stuck with wedges. The top cover can be lifted, and soft corn husks are thrown inside, and two kiwis of the same size are placed.

After assembling all the wooden boxes and putting kiwis on them, it will take a few days before Handa and the others can go to the field to work.

Now is the time when the busy farming season has just passed and every household is full of grain.Liu Yaoqing built the warehouse alone, with two layers of walls inside and outside, filled with wood in the middle, and three layers inside and three layers outside to ensure food safety.

Corn, peanuts, beans, and a lot of potatoes, these things occupy several warehouses, and Liu Yaoqing will be very happy every time he passes by.

Such good things can feed the people on the mountain for several years.

"Let's collect all the coarse grains around to bake pancakes, and help Liang Songzi." Liu Yaoqing said suddenly, "After cooking the coarse grains, we can make corn, potato, and bean pancakes. The taste must be sweet and fragrant."

"Brother Qing is a good man." Brother Zhezi said.

Give the credit to the scholars, let them point out that corn and other rations are enough, there is no need to eat millet, and there is no need to eat coarse grains, but fine grains can be replaced, and every family will be grateful.

Build a school, and the credit is still given to the scholars.

Liu Yaoqing didn't take it seriously, "This is a win-win situation, and we are not bad."

"That's natural, Brother Qing is never bad." Brother Zhezi said sincerely.

The corn stalks in the field have to be picked up slowly by Han Da and the others. The leaves on the corn stalks can be chopped off to feed the cows.

This year, not only Shanggu Village had a bumper harvest, but everyone who took corn seeds and potato seeds was delighted from ear to ear. Some even planted tomatoes, and their hands and feet were nimble and fast.

"Then should we thank Brother Qing or the Emperor Lao Tzu?"

"Thank you, Emperor Lao Tzu, the world belongs to him after all. Just be grateful to Brother Qing in your heart, don't call Brother Qing the master of great achievements."

"What do you mud legs know!"
