Chapter 247: Spring planting half an acre of land

This year's spring in the capital came a little early.

From the end of February to the beginning of March, the temperature has continued to warm, according to the meteorological definition, the average daily temperature for 5 consecutive days exceeds 10 °C, which means the arrival of spring, and the Beijing area has undoubtedly reached the standard in these days.

The most intense reaction is undoubtedly the women walking on the streets, who can't wait to take off their winter clothes and change into spring clothes that can highlight their graceful figures, so that the breath of spring can spread freely in the streets and alleys.

The wilderness around the western suburbs of the village is also soaked in spring, and it is all green as far as the eye can see, the small river that has long since thawed is gurgling, the ducks are quacking and playing in the river, and the willows on the bank have drawn out new shoots and fluttered gently in the spring breeze.

It's a season of beauty and a season of joy!

"Dad, come on!"

Niuniu stepped on the narrow ridge with a basket, turned her head and shouted happily.

"Wow!"

Behind her, Ah Huang followed all the way with his ass upside down, completely looking like a loyal dog.

By the way, keep the annoying little ha behind and don't let it get close to the little master.

"Here we go!"

Luo Kai carried two hoes, followed with a smile, and stepped into the Luo family's countryside.

The so-called "Luojia Pastoral" is actually half an acre of land behind the farmhouse, because it belongs to cultivated land rather than homestead, so it cannot build a house and build a yard, so it has been in a state of semi-abandonment.

So Luo Kai rented this land at a very low price and built a small vegetable garden.

To the south of the garden is the wall of the house, with a door on the right side of the house that provides direct access to the garden, and a fence on the east, west and north sides.

The fence wall is made by the old craftsmen in the village, using the best bamboo, built neatly, and does not cost a lot of money, as long as the vine plants are planted next to it, or vegetables such as loofahs, you can form a beautiful green wall.

The enclosed half acre of land has been thoroughly plowed and all weeds have been removed and organic fertilizer has been added.

This half acre of land is also divided into three longs, which are used for planting different vegetables and vegetables, and it is also possible to plant flowers.

Niuniu's bamboo basket contains vegetable seeds and flower seeds.

Seeing that Niuniu was so excited that she was about to fly, Luo Kai hurriedly shouted: "Don't run, be careful of falling." ”

Niuniu obediently didn't run, she put the bamboo basket on the ridge and asked, "Dad, what do we plant first?"

Luo Kai smiled: "Let's plant cabbage first." ”

"Little cabbage..."

Niuniu squatted down next to the bamboo basket, reaching out and flipping inside.

Ah Huang leaned over with his tail wagging and curiously burrowed his head into the basket.

Niuniu touched its head and found the seed bag of the little cabbage: "We found it!"

Ah Huang screamed "Wang", looking very happy.

As a result, the next moment, Xiao Ha got under Niuniu's armpit and bit the bag in her hand.

"Xiaoha!"

Niu Niu said sternly: "Don't be naughty, I want to plant vegetables with my father, if I bite the seeds, then I won't be able to grow cabbage!"

It's been a while since I adopted Xiaoha, and Niuniu understands its temperament, and knows that this guy is very skinny, and he can't blindly pet and protect it, otherwise he will be lawless.

"Woooooo

Xiao Ha let go of his mouth and cried out aggrievedly, looking innocent.

Niuniu relented again, touched it and said, "Good..."

She got up and handed the bag to Luo Kai: "Dad, give it, this is the seed of the little cabbage." ”

"Hmm..."

Luo Kai put down the hoe, took the seed bag and tore open the seal, and then handed it back to Niuniu: "Dad is here to dig a pit, can you put the seeds?"

"Okay!"

Niuniu suddenly bent her eyebrows and eyes, and nodded in agreement.

Luo Kai took her to plant cabbage together on the first ridge from left, Luo Kai used a small hoe to dig a shallow pit, Niuniu put a few vegetable seeds, and then Luo Kai re-covered the soil.

There are a lot of vegetable plots in Xijiao Village, and the price of locally produced greenhouse vegetables is also very cheap, but the taste of eating the vegetables you grow is definitely different from the one you bought, and there is a pleasant taste of obtaining the fruits of labor.

The most important thing is that Luo Kai uses this to cultivate the concept of the glory of Niuniu's labor, so that she can understand some common sense, and she will not become a delicate woman with industrious limbs and no grain in the future.

In fact, a lot of land in the village is rented to city people, and someone is responsible for taking care of it on weekdays, and it is also fashionable for tenants to come over on weekends and holidays to farm or harvest by themselves.

"Ahh

Niuniu suddenly screamed, as if she had discovered a new world: "Earthworm!"

It turned out that Luo Kai turned out a fat earthworm with a hoe and struggled in a panic on the soil.

Xiao Ha, who was following Niuniu, immediately rushed over, screaming at the earthworm, jumping up and down with a small appearance of loyal protector.

Ah Huang next to him looked at this guy with contempt, not knowing what he was fuss about.

Brother has chased rabbits, has rabbits made of mud?

Luo Kai shook his head, grabbed the back of its neck and set it aside.

The earthworm quickly burrowed back into the soil, and Niu Niu Gege smiled and scattered the seeds.

Half an acre of land is divided into three ridges, one ridge is less than two points, after planting the seeds of the cabbage, Niuniu's forehead has appeared fine sweat, and her face is red like a big apple in autumn.

Luo Kai stretched out his hand to wipe her sweat and asked, "Are you tired?"

Niuniu nodded, and then shook her head again: "Not very tired." ”

Luo Kai smiled: "Do you now know the hard work of the peasant uncle in planting land and vegetables? Do you remember the Tang poem "Compassion for Nong"? Can you still recite it?"

Niuniu thought about it and recited very seriously: "On the afternoon of hoeing day, sweat drops fall into the soil. Who knows that Chinese food is hard work. ”

Luo Kai praised: "I memorized it well, so you understand the meaning of this poem now, right?"

"Got it..."

Niu Niu said: "We must cherish food and not waste it casually. ”

"That's right. ”

Luo Kai said with a smile: "When you eat in the future, you must eat all the food in the bowl and can't waste it." ”

"But..."

Niuniu was a little aggrieved: "But what if Sister Tong Tong and Sister Qiaoqiao always put vegetables in my bowl, and I can't finish it?"

Luo Kaihahaha: "Then you can give it all to Dad." ”

Niuniu was happy: "Well, Dad, then what are we going to plant next?"

While the two were talking, the restless Xiaoha ran to the side of the fence wall, pacing and sniffing around.

It suddenly looked up, staring blankly at a wildflower in front of it.

The wildflower roots were outside the fence wall, the stems and leaves burrowed through the gaps in the bamboo pieces, and a few delicate flowers were so sweet that they attracted a bee to fly up and down.

Xiao Ha had never seen bees, so he was intrigued, so he leaned his head to sniff the bees.

"Whew!"

The next moment, it let out a terrible scream!

Luo Kai and Niuniu were all startled, and they all turned their heads to look, only to see Xiaoha running back with a "woo" scream, and raised his head with tears in his eyes.

Niuniu asked in surprise, "Xiaoha, what's wrong with you?"

Xiao Ha shook his head, looking very painful, and tears kept flowing.

"Daddy..."

Niuniu suddenly panicked and hurriedly asked Luo Kai for help.

Luo Kai crouched down and hugged Xiao Ha, looked at it carefully, and then pulled out a bee sting from above its nose.

Niuniu asked, "Dad, what's wrong with Xiaoha?"

Luo Kai showed her the brown bee sting pinched by the tip of his finger: "Xiao Ha was stung by a bee." ”

"Huh?"

Niuniu was worried: "What should I do then?"

Seeing Xiao Ha burst into tears in pain, she was very distressed.

"It's okay..."

Luo Kai picked up Xiaoha: "Let's go back and smear it with some alkaline water, see the situation, and if it is serious, then send it to the pet hospital for treatment." ”

In fact, it is normal for dogs to be stung by bees or something outside, especially this kind of puppy that does not know the height of the sky, and likes to attract bees and butterflies the most.

"Let's send Xiaoha to the hospital now..."

Niu Niu took his arm and said, "It hurts." ”

"Oh well. ”

Luo Kai took care of her mind: "We'll send it to the hospital for treatment now." ”

The remaining two ridges of land can only be replanted.
