My husband in farming

Life in Zucchini Village is gradually getting on the right track.After the house was built, people from each household began to reclaim the wasteland.Because Zucchini Village has a large area and few people, everyone's land is basically concentrated in one place for the convenience of future management.

Xiao Xiao remembered the agricultural miscellaneous journals he had read before, which said that it is best to plant some soybeans on the wasteland reclaimed in the new year, because the rhizobia of soybean roots can increase the fertilizer efficiency of the land.So Xiao Xiao told Han Ping about it.The men in Zucchini Village are basically peasants. Although they do not have such a clear knowledge system as Xiao Xiao, they all believe that Xiao Xiao is right.So Han Ping

The next day, I went to Qushui County again and bought a lot of soybean seeds.This time, Brother Zhang's family also went with Han Ping. Not only did he buy soybeans, but he also ordered a stone mill.

Xiao Xiao had never seen a stone mill before, so that day, when Han Ping, Wang Zhen and Brother Zhang pulled the stone mill back in a donkey cart, Xiao Xiao was very excited.

The stone mill customized by Brother Zhang is composed of two identical short cylindrical stones with a diameter of about 80 cm and a grinding disc.Below is a platform made of adobe that has already laid a foundation. The contact surfaces of the two mills are chiseled (zàn) with neatly arranged grinding teeth for grinding grain.There is a grinding eye on the upper fan for leaking grain.There is a grinding navel (iron shaft) between the two mills to prevent the upper fan from falling off the lower fan when it is turning.Two thick wooden sticks are fixed on both sides of the grinding disc for grinding.

Xiao Xiao watched Mrs. Liu scrub the stone mill up and down with a brush several times, but she wanted to help but couldn't help.After finishing her work, Aunt Liu turned her head and said to Xiao Xiao, "I'll start grinding later, and the soy milk is finished, you can call the big guys to try it together."

"Ms. Liu, don't bark. What about the large group of people? I'm afraid I'll tire you. How long will it take to grind?" Xiao Xiao shook his head and disagreed. I ran over to see, how could other men have such leisure.Either opening up wasteland, or hunting in the Western Mountains.

Aunt Liu's two young men followed his father to open up wasteland. Today, Brother Zhang went to bring back the stone mill. The farm work in the field cannot be left alone, so the two young men went to work in the field with hoes on their shoulders. son gone.What they can do is weeding and turning the land.Throw away the stones dug out of the reclaimed land.Although the work is not difficult, it is trivial and energy-consuming.

"It's okay, don't we still have our donkey, let him work hard today, please try Brother Zhang's soy milk." After helping to install the stone mill, Han Ping walked over and said, afraid of Xiao Xiao's shoulder.

"That's right, brother Xiao, just don't be reluctant to part with your donkey." Wang Zhen patted the dusty clothes and said to Xiao Xiao cheerfully.

"I'm happy to be able to use that donkey. Well, later, you go to the field and tell everyone that you come to Brother Zhang's house to drink soy milk tonight. I'm asking the mothers-in-law to prepare an order and bring them together .”

"That's good. After the house is built, our village will no longer be lively." Aunt Liu was immediately happy when she heard this. Come over to eat tonight."

"Okay, shall we go back and talk to the mothers-in-law?" Xiao Xiao looked up at Han Ping and asked.

"Listen to you." Han Ping has always been responsive to Xiao Xiao's requests.

"Well, I'll go to the field and talk to you guys." Wang Zhen said, "Brother Zhang, Aunt Liu, I will trouble you at noon." After Wang Zhen finished speaking with a smile, Xiao Xiao took a step forward out.

After Xiao Xiao and Han Ping threw the donkey at Brother Zhang's house, they also went back to their own house.

Although Zucchini Village is big, there are few residents, so when building a house, basically every house is next to each other, so Xiao Xiao arrived in front of his house not long after walking.On the way, he happened to run into Yang Xu who was looking for Li Zimu, so he told him to take Li Zi to Aunt Liu's house for dinner at night.

I don't know what method Li Zimu used. Yang Liu, who originally disagreed with life and death to let Yang Xu go to the pharmacy to help him, was still unwilling in the end, but he would not stop Yang Xu from going to the pharmacy.So Xiao Xiao was the only one who messed around in Zucchini Village every day.Because Yang Xu had to go to Li Zimu's place to help out every day.Xiao Xiao looked at Li Zimu's medical center and no one entered it all day long, and he didn't know what he asked Yang Xu to do every day.

Yang Xu responded and entered Li Zimu's clinic.Xiao Xiao followed Han Ping and continued to walk home.

As soon as he stepped into the yard, a black figure rushed into Xiao Xiao's arms. If Han Ping hadn't hugged him behind him, Xiao Xiao might have been knocked down.Han Ping hugged Xiao Xiao, stretched his arms around his arms, and pulled out the little leopard that jumped at him.

The little leopard in Xiao Xiao's family has been raised for more than a month, and all the bald hair has grown back, and the whole animal has gained a lot of fat.Xiao Xiao also feeds all kinds of delicious food every day, his hair is smooth and smooth, his whole body is glowing in the sun.Xiao Xiao is used to the little leopard, so it jumps up and down at home, no one can control it.Only Han Ping, when the little leopard saw Han Ping, the whole leopard was completely paralyzed, drooping its head and not daring to move.

Now after being lifted out, the four paws were hanging down, the head was lowered, and the whole leopard was being carried pitifully by Han Ping.

When Xiao Xiao saw this, his heart ached. He grabbed Han Ping's arm and begged, "Don't be angry, didn't the little leopard do it on purpose. Look at how pitiful it is."

Han Ping bowed his head and kissed Xiao Xiao's face, "It just pretends to be good in front of you, and the two mothers-in-law and Uncle Wang often complained to me.

Usually I can't catch it, but I managed to catch it today, so I must teach it well. After finishing speaking, Han Ping ignored the sluggish little leopard, bowed his head and said to Xiao Xiao, "Hey, go tell the two mothers-in-law, I'll go find you later." "

"Then don't be angry with it." Xiao Xiao looked at the little leopard uneasy and said.

"Don't worry." Han Ping assured Xiao Xiao.

After watching Xiao Xiao turn around and leave, Han Ping brought the little leopard to his eyes, "Usually relying on Xiao'er's favor, you dare to act lawlessly, if you dare to make trouble in the yard again, I will throw you back to the back mountain, and then Find an identical kitty to replace you!"

After Han Ping finished speaking, the little leopard trembled, then raised his head, and stared at Han Ping with golden eyes begging for mercy.His mouth was also screaming.

"I kept you just to protect Xiao'er. If you can't do that, I'll just throw you back."

The little leopard understood, and suddenly scratched his front paws and his ears were shaking.He almost nodded, but Han Ping held his neck and couldn't move.

"Also, don't continue to make trouble at home."

Little Leopard blinked his golden eyes to show his understanding.

Han Ping threw the little leopard on the ground and turned to find Xiao Xiao.The little leopard that fell to the ground squatted on the ground, raised its front paws and licked it non-stop, which scared it to death.

At dusk, Xiao Xiao and Han Ping, with a few people in the yard, went to Brother Zhang's house to drink soy milk.Taking advantage of the afternoon, the two mother-in-laws first went to Brother Zhang's house to help. After all, there are more than [-] people in the village, and it is not easy to make a table.Because Mrs. Liu's house didn't have enough stools, the single-family men would habitually bring their own whenever they visited other people's houses.

So if the villagers of Zucchini Village get together to eat, you can see a group of men in the village either carrying or carrying stools, walking in one direction.The scene is extremely funny.

When Xiao Xiao and his party arrived, the courtyard was already full of people.Some men have already got together and opened several jars of wine.Seeing them coming, Kun Liu hurried over, "Boss Han, you are here, hurry up, my brothers are waiting for you."

Han Ping glanced at Xiao Xiao, Xiao Xiao waved his hand, "You go with them, I'll go find Aunt Liu."

"Okay, pay attention to yourself." Han Ping didn't stop Xiao Xiao, he knew that Xiao Xiao wanted to go and see the soy milk grinder.Brother Zhang's stone mill was placed on the west side of the yard. When Xiao Xiao passed by, he saw his black donkey pulling the stone mill with great strength, and a lot of milky white soybean milk was already flowing under the stone mill.

"Brother Xiao, you are here." It was Zhang Fang, the eldest son of Brother Zhang's family, who greeted Xiao Xiao.Brother Zhang's family has two young men, one is Zhang Fang, 15 years old, and the other is Zhang Tian, ​​12 years old.Now the two of them are looking at the donkey and picking up soy milk by the way.

Xiao Xiao didn't have a deep impression of these two children. At first, Xiao Xiao thought that the original owner was about the same age as them, so they should be able to play together, but unexpectedly, the young man of this age had already started to work in the fields.He wouldn't run behind Xiao Xiao's ass at all.

Some time ago, there were a lot of workers and villagers in Zucchini Village, and Xiao Xiao couldn't care less about saying hello to each of them, so now seeing Zhang Fang talking to him, Xiao Xiao was quite happy.

"Where's Mrs. Liu?"

"My mother is in the back kitchen, preparing meals with Aunt Du and mother-in-law." Zhang Tian squatted on the ground and raised his head and said to Xiao Xiao.

Xiao Xiao nodded, and was about to go and take a look behind, but was stopped by Zhang Fang.

"Brother Xiao, you can just wait here. My mother's side is almost done. Here, try the freshly ground soy milk." Zhang Fang handed Xiao Xiao a bowl full of milky white soy milk.

Xiao Xiao took it and took a sip. It was delicious and mellow, and when he swallowed it, there was still a faint aftertaste in his mouth.

"Well, it's delicious!" Xiao Xiao said to the two young men in front of him after taking a sip.

"What's this? When we grow our own soybeans, it will taste better than this." Zhang Fang said unsatisfactorily, pulling the grass on the ground.

"Well, the soy milk made from the beans we grow ourselves must be delicious." Xiao Xiao nodded in agreement.
