My daughter-in-law is a snake
Chapter 17
"I don't agree with selling it. The house is also our own, so why sell it? That is to say, we can't take care of the busy farming now. It will be a profit when we are not busy." Yue Xiaohui was the first to disagree.
"Then rent it out?" Xiu Tianyu said.
Uncle Xiu squinted at him, "I said, why do you pay attention every now and then? I asked you a few years ago, and you said you wouldn't sell it. Why did you change your attention after the new year?"
Xiu Tianyu took a sip of his wine and didn't speak.
Today, the Xiu family stewed fish and steamed a large pot of rice.The rice in the Northeast is highly oily, and it tastes particularly delicious in the mouth.
Han Zhen himself is actually a southerner, so he prefers rice. Now it’s the first time he comes here to eat rice. bowl.
"Hey, do you like rice?" Aunt Xiu asked Han Zhen, adding a bowl of rice.
Han Zhen nodded, "But I have never eaten such delicious rice, I can eat a bowl of this rice for nothing!"
"Hahaha, the rice in the Northeast is good. It is cooked once a year, and it is cooked three times a year in the South. Naturally, it is not as delicious as ours!" Aunt Xiu had a smug expression on her face.
"Then does our family also grow rice?" Han Zhen asked expectantly.
"Uh..." Aunt Xiu blinked, her family had never planted this.
"Plant, if you like to eat, let's plant it!" Uncle Xiu said, "We will divide a few acres of land in the future, and the few acres by the river will be vacated, and our family will also grow rice."
"I know how to plant rice seedlings!" Han Zhen said happily, swallowing the rice in his mouth.
Xiu Tianyu laughed, "Hurry up and pull it down. Machines are used to transplant rice seedlings now, so why do you still need to do it manually?" He picked up a large piece of fish for Han Zhen, touched his bare head with his backhand and said: " Planting rice requires raising seedlings, right?"
"No, just go back and find someone to buy some. There are rice growers in the village next door. If we want to really grow rice, I'll go and see it tomorrow." Xiu Tianying took a sip of his wine, picked up a large chopsticks of sauerkraut and sputtered After eating, he said: "I talked about planting rice in the early years, but you always find it troublesome."
"Isn't that because all of you don't like rice?" Uncle Xiu clicked his tongue: "If you want to eat, you can exchange it with noodles. Now there is someone who loves rice at home, so let's plant three acres of land. Hurry up tomorrow." Go ask and buy some good seedlings."
"Yes." Xiu Tianying agreed.
"I know how to grow seedlings!" Han Zhen recommended himself.
"Get some rest." Xiu Tianyu rejected his proposal again, "Our family doesn't even have seeds. If you want to grow seedlings, what do you use to raise seedlings? You will keep the seeds later, and you can do whatever you want." He didn't take Han Zhen at all. Take it seriously.
Han Zhen was a little depressed. He took a big mouthful of rice and said, "I really know how to raise seedlings!"
Aunt Xiu coaxed him with a smile, "Xiaozhen, don't bother with the second child. It's past the season of raising seedlings now, and I will save seeds for next year. You can grow seedlings for as many acres as you plant."
Han Zhen finally realized that this family treated him like a child.But it's nothing, wait until next year I show my hand and scare them!
If you want to grow rice, you have to open a paddy field. Before planting, you dig a river ditch to divert water into the field, and soak the ground.But it has not completely thawed yet, and it will take some time.
Xiu Tianying turned around the next day and came back and said, "It's decided, but the rice will not be planted until June and July, so don't worry about raising seedlings."
Han Zhen was shocked: "Didn't all the rice be harvested at that time?"
"It's in the south. It's cold in the north. All farms only grow for one season, and everything they plant has to wait until the freeze has thawed." Xiu Tianying said.
Han Zhen was shaken by this new knowledge, and couldn't help asking: "Then, is there enough food?" Such a large field can only grow food once!What a waste of money!
Xiu Tianying was smoking a cigarette. Hearing this question, he choked up laughing and coughed. It took him a long time to calm down: "Oh my god, you're so funny, don't you have enough food? Then what do you eat every day?"
Han Zhen blushed, thinking about it, it was true. With more than 300 mu of land, even if one mu of land can produce [-] catties of grain, that is tens of thousands of catties of grain!Then pay the tax and there is enough left over to eat!
What a little fool.Brother Xiu thought about what his brother said, it was not suitable anyway, this little fool was not liked by others, so why not just stay at home and be a companion or something.
But he could see that this kid lacked in IQ, but he was pretty good in other areas, and he was fair-looking, so he matched well with his brother.
Ever since Han Zhen knew that the water in this well is not only good for people, but also good for all things, he has taken heart.Put a little in the cooking pot every day, put a little in Aunt Xiu's tea mug, put a little in sister-in-law Yue's chicken bowl, and even spray well water on the shelf for breeding wheat and soybeans , hoping to make these seeds healthy and produce more food.
When the wheat was all planted, Yue Xiaohui packed her things and went to a small restaurant. She was reluctant to part with the income from that restaurant. Even if she had to drive back and forth every day, it was better than leaving it there.
In the past, Xiu Tianyu was supposed to go back at this time, but now that there are more people in the family, he is reluctant to part with it.Uncle Xiu and Aunt Xiu also knew it well, it's just that a layer of window paper was not torn, for fear of frightening the child.
Even if they are stupid, we can't fool them, right?
With the addition of Xiu Tianyu's entire labor force, the family finally became more relaxed, and the little piglets were also caught. The four little piggies were crowded in the clean pigsty, grunting and grunting for food.
Aunt Xiu discussed with her family that they would plant another two acres of sweet potatoes. The sweet potato vines could feed pigs, chickens and sheep, and the small sweet potato eggs could also be eaten by pigs, saving the need to collect swill everywhere.
"People in the city think it's not good for pigs to eat swill. I think we eat it at home anyway. The swill from the restaurant plus sweet potatoes is enough."
"The price is so poor all day long, and the sweet potatoes are really good to feed pigs!" Uncle Xiu was reluctant.
"Then why can't we feed pigs? Pigs are more expensive than those sweet potatoes? How many sweet potatoes can four pigs eat? Why don't you eat pork? You're so picky!" Aunt Xiu scolded her old man.
At first, Han Zhen also thought it was a luxury to feed sweet potatoes to pigs, but they were sweet potatoes, and they could be eaten as dry food in times of famine!But when I think about it, there are more than 300 mu of land here, but it's just two mu of sweet potatoes...
Sure enough, it is difficult to go from extravagance to frugality, but it is easy to go from frugality to extravagance!
"Then you planted the sweet potatoes as you said? You have to raise seedlings too!" Uncle Xiu said angrily.
"That's not the same as potatoes, is it? What's wrong with it?" Aunt Xiu got off the kang, got up and walked out, "I'll take a look at the sweet potatoes left in our cellar. It's enough to save two acres of land."
"I'll go, I'll go, what are you doing, you're falling and I have to serve you!" Uncle Xiu grabbed his coat and put it on his shoulders and went out.
"Don't serve me if you have the ability!" Ever since she recovered from her illness, Aunt Xiu has spent a lot of energy day by day, and her voice has also become louder.She also knows that her masters love her dearly, but Uncle Xiu is not very good at talking, and every time he says something that is obviously distressing, it makes people laugh and cry.
"Dad, don't go, my mother will feel sorry for you if you fall back, I'll go." Xiu Tianyu and Han Zhen were standing in the courtyard watching the excitement, but when he saw his father walking out with a serious face, he quickly stopped him.
"This old lady, don't make people worry!" Uncle Xiu scolded, and didn't enter the house, just squatted at the door to smoke.
Aunt Xiu pretended not to hear it, and called Han Zhen into the house instead: "Xiao Zhen, will you raise sweet potato seedlings?"
"Yes!" Finally came to work, and Han Zhen immediately got excited.
During this period of time, the land in his space is almost cleaned up, and things grow very fast. The loofahs and pumpkins are about to be planted in a blink of an eye, and the cabbage and radishes are all sprouting a bunch of long seedlings. Being caught and eaten by those two chicks, he didn't need to worry at all.
"Just tossing around, can a baby in the city know how to raise sweet potato seedlings?" Uncle Xiu couldn't help muttering again.
"If you don't say a few words, he's so bored!" Aunt Xiu didn't care, anyway, there are a lot of sweet potatoes in the house, and she doesn't feel bad even if she spoiled a few, "If you know how to do it, my aunt will teach you, it's easy."
"Auntie, I will!" Han Zhen almost knelt down, "If you don't believe me, I'll cut it out for you later."
Xiu Tianyu came out from the cellar with a bag of sweet potatoes on his back. These sweet potatoes were buried in the sand to avoid mold and germination, and now they have to be taken out to breathe in order to grow seedlings.
Han Zhen squatted with him in the yard and rummaged through the sweet potatoes, took the moldy ones to one side, and put the good ones on the other side, then moved the chopping board for chopping chicken food over to set it up, first cut off the moldy parts with a few knives, Then I picked the thick eyes of the buds and cut them into beautiful seedling pieces with a few knives.
"It's still like that, I didn't expect your city kids to learn this too?" Uncle Xiu asked after standing aside and watching for a long time.
"Well, I used to be poor and wanted to learn, so I learned." Han Zhen said casually.
Uncle Xiu and the others thought he was talking about how poor he was in the years before he was recognized by the Han family, and his family wanted to grow sweet potatoes, so they learned this, so they couldn't help but sigh.
What a poor little girl...
Xiu Tianyu didn't let Uncle Xiu and Aunt Xiu interfere, and he and Han Zhen were busy all afternoon. Before the blackout, they estimated that the two acres of land were almost enough, so they organized things.
Xiu Tianying's row of houses used to raise chickens is still vacant, and now the kang head has been tidied up and specially used for raising sweet potato seedlings.
Han Zhensheng was afraid that he would not be able to grow good seedlings, so he soaked each piece of seedlings with well water. After a while, the sweet potato seedlings were lush and full, so he had to divide the seedlings quickly, and he was stunned to divide an extra two acres. .
Fortunately, there is still a corner of the family's land that is rich, and it is not old or young to clean it up.Uncle Xiu took his eldest son and Han Zhen to the field every day to clean up. After all, there are only a few acres of land. Except for the use of tractors to plow the land, other digging and filming are done manually.
This made Han Zhen very tired. Although Uncle Xiu kept telling him not to go to the ground, he couldn't persuade him.It's a pity that Han Zhen's body is no longer that of a farmer who has been farming for decades. If it weren't for the well water in the space to support him, he would have been lying on his back and unable to move.
This made Aunt Xiu feel distressed, she felt that other people's children were spoiled and raised since childhood, and when they were sent to her home, they were white and clean, but who knew that she would be raised black in a few months!How did this work?
I blame myself, what did I say to grow sweet potatoes!
"Then rent it out?" Xiu Tianyu said.
Uncle Xiu squinted at him, "I said, why do you pay attention every now and then? I asked you a few years ago, and you said you wouldn't sell it. Why did you change your attention after the new year?"
