18 Buy land and plant

The next day happened to be Sunday, the day of the market in the county seat, Tian Jing and Tian Xiaoxia were watching the sale of steamed buns while washing the vegetables, and the elders of the Tian family came, Tian Jianjian, Tian Da Uncle, and Tian Da Aunt were all dispatched.

Tian Xiaoxia looked back at Tian Huagang, who was processing the sign, he didn't say yesterday that his family was coming.

Originally, it was going to come in a few days, but Tian Jianshe didn't sleep all night, for fear that Tian Xiaoxia would say that he wouldn't go to college. In addition, the people from the village office took the letter from Tian Huamin, the boss of the Tian family, to Uncle Tian's house last night, and Uncle Tian and Tian Jianshe came together.

Tian Xiaoxia asked people to sit, took a few steamed buns, and poured three bowls of soy milk for them to eat quickly.

"Xiao Xia, why did you still buy this?" Uncle Tian asked, he was ready to come to the shop and close the door at this time.

Tian Xiaoxia squatted to the faucet, and said while washing vegetables: "The house has been rented for a month, and the door is open for half a day, and the door is open for a whole day. ”

Uncle Tian nodded, yes, but this steamed bun fee is not troublesome. Pasta is eaten in the south, but there are not many, and most of them are noodles or pancakes, and they don't make much at home, let alone steamed buns and other pasta that need to be made, and basically no one will make it at home.

"Then you don't have time to sleep?" Aunt Tian knew that these tasks seemed to be small and small, but they could not be done all at once.

Tian Xiaoxia shook his head, "Yes, we go to bed at one o'clock in the evening, come quietly in the morning and steam the steamed buns first, we can get up a little later, and we can sleep in the afternoon." ”

Aunt Tian ate a steamed bun, pushed the remaining half bowl of soy milk to Uncle Tian, walked to the storefront, opened two curtains to take a look, one of the inside was set up with a turning head and a wooden board, and the outside was directly spread on the ground with a straw mat.

Aunt Tian didn't say anything, but just asked Tian Jing, "Jingjing, have you been helping them in the county for the past few days?"

Tian Jing nodded, "Well, it didn't help much, I left at nine o'clock, and they were busy until one or two o'clock." ”

"You haven't helped you yet, we can sleep for an extra hour or two when you come, look at your hands, the sticks are all rough. Tian Xiaoxia said.

Tian Xiaoxia is telling the truth, although Tian Jing is also a farmer's child, she has hardly done any work when she is a child, and most of it is housework such as cooking and washing dishes, and she has only helped in the county for three or five days, and her hands are rough.

I didn't ask Tian Xiaoxia about his plans for a long time, Tian Jianshe was anxious, "Xiaoxia, you ask your brother to go back and tell us what his plans are for farming." ”

Tian Xiaoxia still has the same old rhetoric, feeling that it is too dangerous to go to sea, and it is better to earn money if others earn it, so it is better to earn it yourself.

Uncle Tian gave them the letters written by his eldest son Tian Huamin to Tian Huagang and Tian Xiaoxia.

The brother and sister wiped their hands and sat aside to read the letter, and the elder brother also discussed the matter of this land.

When the brother and sister stuffed the letter into the envelope again, Uncle Tian asked, "What did your eldest brother say?"

"I didn't say anything, just said that it was okay if I didn't go to be a soldier, and it was enough for him to be a soldier at home. Tian Huagang said.

Tian Xiaoxia never expected that the eldest brother would agree to the second brother not to be a soldier, after all, in these years, being a soldier is a good way out, besides, the eldest brother himself is also in the army.

However, looking back, it is also possible that the eldest brother himself is in the army, so he feels that the army is not the only way out.

"My eldest brother told me to study hard, saying that he might go to Kyoto to study in October, and he would come to see me then. Tian Xiaoxia also briefly explained, and did not say that there was still twenty yuan in the letter.

Several people discussed the matter of the field again, but in the end no one could completely convince anyone, and the result was that they first bought the land with the fifty yuan, and planted the second crop of rice and autumn potatoes, anyway, the land did not have to be planted all year round, and it was rooted in the ground from dawn to dark.

If there is work in the field, the land will be planted, and when the land is empty, it will go to sea, and there will be no delay.

Since they all came to the county seat, Uncle Tian and Tian Jianshe went to buy the seeds they wanted, and Aunt Tian stayed at the stall to help.

It is estimated that because it is a big gathering in the county, people have come to buy steamed buns one after another until mid-afternoon, although they are only one or two to buy, but mosquito legs are also meat.

Uncle Tian and Tian Jianshe came back after buying seeds, but Tian Xiaoxia couldn't keep them for dinner.

The two brothers went to Tian Jing's house after eating on the island, but Tian Jing's father was the village head, and he had to go through him to buy land and land reclamation in the future, and now it is very suitable to buy land and find him as a middleman.

The people on the island are out of the homestead, and it is not a matter of plowing the land. Whoever has barren land and who is not happy to farm, Tian Jing's father doesn't say that Menqing knows a rough idea.

Paddy fields have to be bought ready-made, and dry land for growing potatoes can be cleared.

Looking for Tian Jing's father to say that he wanted to buy paddy fields, the two brothers planned to open up the wasteland.

Of course, Uncle Tian San was not left behind, and Uncle Tian San planned to do it with his two brothers in the spirit of brotherly righteousness, but was stopped by Aunt Tian San.

Aunt Tian is an authentic fisherman, relying on the mountains to eat the mountains, and of course relying on the sea to eat the sea. Who goes to the land to dig food by the sea?

Uncle Tian had no choice but to change to go to sea or go to sea, and when he returned from going to sea to rest, he went to work with his two elder brothers.

By the time Tian Jing's father helped them ask if they had land, it was already five or six years later.

They are all from the same village, fair and just, and they bought less than one mu for thirty yuan. At this time, the three brothers had cultivated more than half an acre of wasteland.

Uncle Tian San has no right to speak. Uncle Tian and Tian Jianshe are thinking that it is enough, no matter how much they can't wait, although they don't have to work every day, they can be busy enough just to grab seeds and harvest.

One acre of paddy field and half an acre of wasteland cost forty yuan to buy land.

Uncle Tian and Tian Jianshe are also kind, although Uncle Tian didn't do much, they also divided the land to Uncle Tian, the wasteland is divided into five parts, Uncle Tian is one, and Uncle Tian and Tian Jianshe have two shares each.

Even if this land is in order, the next step is to plant the land, first grab the second crop of rice, and plant the rice little by little, which is not an easy job.

The most procrastinating families in the village have been plugged in, and the Tian family is still soaking in the paddy fields and working until dark. For this, many people in the village said that the Tian family was crazy to think about money for female college students, and they actually wanted to farm to make money.

Although Aunt Tian San did not agree to buy land, there was work in the field, and she did not stop Uncle Tian to help, and even took on the task of cooking for a large family.

After the three brothers of the Tian family and Aunt Tian planted all the rice, they didn't recuperate for a few days, and the autumn potatoes should be planted again.

Fortunately, growing potatoes is not that much trouble.

Aunt Tian and Aunt Tian didn't go to the field, they cooked at home, cut and cut potatoes, and handed over the matter of digging ditches in the field to the three brothers of the Tian family.

It was already half a month before all the seeds were planted.

Aunt Tian felt that her family had been delayed to go to sea so much, but thinking of Uncle Tian's respect for her two elder brothers, she didn't have much to say if she complained. I just hope that I won't be busy in vain.
