Chapter 47 Pig Raising in the Whole Village

Before and after the rain in the valley, melons and beans were planted, and there was more work in the field. There was a few snowfalls last winter, and this spring the moisture is good, people are busy planting in the spring, and the fields are full of busy people.

The wheat field was dark green, more than half a foot high, and it was significantly taller than the wheat in the stone temple in the neighboring village. Everyone was amazed: "It is said that the old eagle is buried in the cold wheat field, and the old hen can be buried in the wheat field in our village, and scientific farming is really good, if you don't believe it, you can't believe it." ”

The masses in the neighboring villages saw it, and the leaders of the commune also knew about it, and held an on-site meeting on wheat field management in Hantun Village. Then, the county's on-site meeting to promote ammonia fertilization was also held in the village.

At the meeting, the third uncle explained the technical management of ammonia topdressing on the spot, and was praised by the leaders of the county, and the whole family was proud.

Youyou was particularly happy, because she knew that after the fall of the "Gang of Four" in '76, the rebels stepped down in order and the state vigorously cultivated revolutionary, younger, more knowledgeable and professional cadres.

On the river beach, gray cabbage, mother-in-law, horsetail cabbage (purslane), ox tongue (psyllium), bitter herbs, and broom vegetables grow one after another.

Everyone said that this year's wild vegetables grew very well, large and tender, and the reason was that the pears were shaved clean. It's true, after people's digging, there are very few hairy pears on the river beach, and they are scattered everywhere.

Youyou became Si Ni Guiping's little follower, and went to the river beach every day to dig wild vegetables.

Even if she goes every day, she can't dig much, and the small basket can hold a pound of vegetables at most, and the basket is not yet heavy. When she gets home, she forgets to add some to her basket.

The key is that she has a cheating weapon, and the river beach is vast and sparsely populated, especially the river beach at the border of adjacent Pingcheng County, where there is basically no one. The robot she secretly released, according to the instructions, can dig up a large number of wild vegetables every day, and they are collected into the space.

The limited sale of wild vegetables in the mall was launched, and it was very successful, and the high price of 100 yuan per catty did not stop people's enthusiasm, and they were sold out every day as soon as they were listed.

The life of the family has also been improved, since there are wild vegetables, the Yoyo family has finally bid farewell to the days of eating pickles and beans every day, and the dinner table has green. In particular, the artemisia pickled by grandma is fresh and tender, and the family is full of praise for eating.

Wild vegetables grow well, and due to the large amount of digging in a leisurely manner, it is not too eye-catching. But as oats and alfalfa grow, it quickly caught the eye.

Oats grow fast and are about the same height as wheat. The people of the village wondered how strange the bells on the river beach this year were the seeds washed down by the river.

Alfalfa also grows to a pinch (pronounced zhǎ. Measure words, the basic meaning of which is to open the thumb and middle finger to measure the length) is everywhere. People have never seen alfalfa grass and don't know what it is for.

Everyone went to the river beach to cut oats and feed the pigs and sheep at home, but no one cut alfalfa. People don't have the guts to try the unknown. You know, the pigs and sheep at home are a large amount of property.

Yoyo took the lead in cutting and feeding the pigs and sheep at home, and grandma was not at ease, so Yoyo repeatedly promised to let her try. Seeing that the pigs and sheep were willing to eat (love), and there was no accident after feeding them for two days, Gui Ping followed and fed the pigs and sheep.

When the big guy heard about it, he went to Yoyo's house to ask, and grandma had to say that Yoyo was young and ignorant, and he didn't tell the adults when he cut it back to feed the pigs, but the pigs and sheep love to eat.

In order to reassure everyone, my uncle and grandfather specially called back my uncle and asked him to see what kind of weeds weeds weeds weeded against. When the third uncle went to the river beach, he was very surprised, how could so many wild alfalfa grow, and he could only find the same reason as oats, the seeds washed down by the river.

A mass meeting was held in the courtyard attended by the whole village, and the third uncle told everyone that alfalfa is the best forage for raising pigs and sheep, and mobilized everyone to raise more pigs and sheep to support national construction, and at the same time increase family income. According to the current amount of alfalfa and oats in the river beach, a family feeds two or three pigs, the feed is absolutely fine, and tells everyone the correct way to harvest oats and alfalfa.

The villagers listened to the explanation of the third uncle, the mood was particularly high, and they rushed to buy pig seedlings (piglets), some time ago, everyone sold fragrant aconite and each family had an income of dozens of yuan, and no one was short of money to buy small pig seedlings.

A few elderly ladies in the village secretly went to the river to burn incense and worship the river god to thank the river god for his gifts. Even my grandmother secretly chanted: "God has appeared and sent the river god to bring divine grass to our village." ”

Yoyo was tight-lipped and didn't tell grandma that he had sown the grass seeds. You must know that there are some things that it can't say clearly, so don't say it at all.

The two pigs fed by Youyou's family have grown to more than 40 catties, and people who come and go are amazed when they see it. In the face of everyone's inquiries, Yoyo often replied innocently: "My family's pig seedlings grow fast with the 'big one'." It made people laugh.

Yoyo pestered his grandmother to grab two more ends, and his brother also patted his chest and promised that he would mow the grass after school in the future. Grandma is now obedient to Yoyo, and immediately agreed, and Dad found someone to build a pigsty.

Grandma also persuaded the second grandfather's family to buy a few more piglets, and the second grandmother looked at the piglets that grew well in the pigsty, and also had confidence, and bought three at once.

Youyou was so busy running at both ends that he added food to the piglets of the two families, but fortunately, there was grandma to help cover up.

In the evening, grandma and Youyou lay on the kang and sighed: "We can finally help the villagers do something, if it weren't for the big guy to take care of it, our family wouldn't know if we could survive, and there were more people injured in that sport." ”

Since there are more pigs in each family, the children run to the river beach after school to help the family cut the grass and feed the pigs, and there is a lot less time to play, which also makes Yoyo blame himself.

Listening to Youyou's always mentioning the suffering of the children in the village, my grandmother has a different opinion: "The children in the countryside are like this, and they can only play in the winter when the farm is slack." This year is still good, there is a lot of grass on the river beach, and it will be full after a while, and it turns out that it will be cut until dark, and it will not be visible before going home. ”

After listening to Grandma's words, Yoyo came back and secretly congratulated himself that he had done a good deed.

People go to work in the fields, and after finishing work, they turn to the river beach to cut baskets of pigweed and bring them back, but it is not too laborious, and they slowly get used to it, and each family does not lack feed because of the large number of pigs.

This also has the benefit of re-embankment to Hantun Village, that is, there is more swill to feed the pigs. There are more than 500 migrant workers, and there are more than 10 houses alone.

The swill from the pot every day is welcomed by the villagers, poured into the swill bucket sent by the people in advance, and then brought back by each household, which is clean and hygienic and trouble-free, and a real win-win situation.

The disadvantage is that the sheep have to be tied up and can't be free-range. What is admirable is the ideological realm of people at this time, which is really high, and more than 500 migrant workers have never had any accidents, they have not stolen, touched, or fought, at most they quarreled and quarreled.

Hao Hao really said that he would do it, and every afternoon after school, he and his friends went to the river beach to cut pigweed. In fact, there is no need for Hao Hao to mow the grass at all, you can do it alone, but you can't say it clearly.

Every time I look at my brother's immature shoulders carrying the heavy pigweed, my tired little face is flushed when I get home, and my heart trembles in pain. In his previous life, Yoyo had never felt this way, maybe this is because of the blood connection.

Grandma was afraid that she would be tired of her brother, so she asked her mother to make dinner every day, and then rode a bicycle to pick up the brothers and sisters, and helped bring the pigweed back, and sat on the front beam, thinking about how to get a bicycle back for the family, so that my brother could carry him back and forth.

In the evening, I discussed with my grandmother, and my grandmother said that she could buy an old bicycle, and usually let Hao Hao take you to the river beach, and it was also convenient for her grandmother to go to the commune supply and marketing cooperative. However, you have to go to the county market to buy it, and there are very few of them sold in the commune's bazaar. It seems that I have to think of going to the county seat.

There are a lot of bicycles in Yoyo Mall, but there are really no suitable ones for this era, and there are suitable collectibles. After searching for a long time, the prices were more than 10,000 yuan and dilapidated, and they basically lost their use function.

Zhi Brain proposed to make the new car old, and Yoyo Brain suddenly opened his mind, found a German diamond retro bicycle, and handed it to Zhi Brain to make old.
