Chapter 325: Xiao Ming's family planted vegetable seedlings

Grandpa took a closer look and said it was okay. As long as there is time in the future, when grandpa is making things, Shaoke will help.

You Xiaoming's family has also been busy these days, and You's mother went to the street to call her eldest brother and told her about Xiao Ming's admission to a key university.

The eldest uncle said that he was very happy, and You's mother immediately asked, "Big brother, can you borrow a little money?" Xiao Ming's tuition may not be enough. ”

The uncle said that he was very embarrassed, and his son was also studying. After hearing this, You's mother said, "Forget it, how much worse is the time when you see it?"

The uncle asked his sister to take care of her health, and You's mother also told them to take care of their health.

After talking for a while, he put it down and gave the phone bill to the boss.

Go to the street immediately, now the vegetable seedlings in the field are being planted these days, and after planting, there is not much to do, and I am ready to feed a season of silkworms.

You Ma went to the supply and marketing cooperatives to get silkworm eggs, and children who have lived in the countryside know that silkworms are first eggs, on a piece of paper.

There are many mulberry trees planted in my home, so I can feed more, and all of them eat mulberry leaves. You Ma went to the village chief to get it and went home.

Soon back home, Xiao Ming and his sister helped plant vegetable seedlings at home. You Ma took out a round Luo Gai and put it inside.

He turned around and walked towards the mulberry tree field where his family had planted, picked a few very tender mulberry leaves, and went home as soon as he finished picking them.

When I got home, I found a small pair of scissors, cut the mulberry leaves into very thin silks, and put them on the silkworm eggs.

Then he closed the door and walked towards his own field. Soon arrived, and I saw the two siblings planting vegetable seedlings there.

You's mother walked over and called them loudly, and the two siblings stopped and called their mother loudly. Xiao Ming was digging the soil, and the third sister was planting vegetable seedlings.

You Ma immediately picked up the hoe and began to dig the soil, and when the soil was finished, all the small nests were laid, and the family of three squatted down to plant vegetable seedlings.

It wasn't until noon that the sun came out, and the field was finally planted.

You's mother hurriedly asked the third sister to go back, and the mother and son packed up and went back. The weather is not hot, and the planted vegetable seedlings can survive by watering a little.

The family returned home and started making lunch.

You's mother fed the family's livestock, and the two siblings cooked in the kitchen.

After feeding, You Ma went to look at the silkworm eggs again, took out scissors and cut the remaining two mulberry leaves finely, and put them on the silkworm eggs.

Feed at least four times a day, once every four hours, and sometimes twice in the evening. In this way, the silkworm eggs will become small silkworms a little faster.

After about a week, the eggs on the silkworm eggs become small silkworms, so that more mulberry leaves are eaten.

You Ma only feeds for one season, and she is very busy and has no time to feed.

After the two siblings finished their homework, they would also help feed the silkworms. Mom has been feeding silkworms for ten years.

You can sell it for three or four hundred yuan for one season, so that you can help the third sister pay for one period of tuition.

After feeding You's mother, she hurried to the kitchen, and the two siblings were busy.

I fried an extra plate of scrambled eggs at noon today, thinking that there were still two vegetable seedlings to be planted.

An hour later, the meal was ready. The family of three began to eat.

Xiao Ming asked while eating: "Mom, there are still two plots of land planted, can our family's sugarcane be eaten?"

The third sister also said while eating: "Mom, if the sugarcane can be eaten, cut it and sell it!"

You Ma took a bite of cabbage and said with a smile: "After we finished planting the vegetable seedlings, let's go and see them." ”

The two siblings nodded and said yes, and after eating quickly, the two siblings packed up the dishes and went to wash!

After washing, You's mother closed the door and the family took a nap.

At about four o'clock in the afternoon, the family got up, You's mother fed the silkworms first, Xiao Ming carried the bucket, the sister carried two hoes, the mother closed the door, the mother carried the basket, and the family went out again.

When they arrived at another piece of land, the third sister put down her hoe, and You's mother began to dig the soil.

Xiao Ming carried a bucket to the river to fetch water to water the vegetable seedlings in the field planted in the morning. The third sister carried the basket on her back to another field to pull vegetable seedlings.

The vegetable seedlings in the morning have been planted, and Xiao Ming soon arrived at the river, where the uncle and aunt were washing vegetables. Tomorrow in the market, they are going to sell vegetables.

To wash the vegetables in the river, Xiao Ming laughed and called them loudly. Uncle and aunt also called him with a smile.

Soon filled two buckets of water in the river, Xiao Ming picked up the flat pole and carried it away.

After resting three times on the road, he finally arrived at the field in the morning, and after putting down the flat burden, Xiao Ming took a breath, picked up the melon scoop, and prepared to water.

When I got closer, after the sun had passed, the vegetable seedlings were a little embarrassed. Be careful to pour the water over the roots, don't water too much.

In this way, Xiao Ming poured two buckets of water and continued to go to the river to fetch water.

The third sister pulled most of the basket of vegetable seedlings on her back, and hurriedly carried them to her mother's field. You's mother has already dug some and laid a nest.

After the third sister arrived, she called her mother, and her mother stopped, wiped the sweat on her face, and said loudly with a smile: "Third sister, you plant it, and mom will continue to dig." ”

The third sister nodded and said okay, and then began to plant vegetable seedlings.

The third sister will start planting when she is thirteen years old, and so will Xiao Ming and her sister.

The three sisters are very diligent and obedient.

At the beginning of learning to plant, more than 10 vegetable seedlings were planted. You Ma asked them to watch carefully from the side, and after teaching them several times, they finally planted.

An hour later, Xiao Ming finally finished watering the field.

Carrying two buckets of water to this field, my sister has already planted a little. Xiao Ming put down the flat burden, picked up the hoe and began to dig the soil and make a nest.

I didn't put it down until it was almost dark, and the field was dug up. There are still vegetable seedlings that have not been planted, so I have to carry them back and continue to come tomorrow.

The family packed up their belongings and went home together.

After returning home, the two siblings cooked dinner, and You's mother fed the silkworms first, and fed the pigs, chickens and ducks at home, opened the cage door, and let them in by themselves.

The two rabbits in the family were fed grass, and after feeding, the two siblings were almost ready.

You Ma washed her hands and brought the dishes and chopsticks to the table. The two siblings brought the meal, and the family sat down to eat dinner.

After eating quickly, Xiao Ming packed up the dishes and chopsticks and went to wash, the third sister went to hot bath water, and You's mother found out her clothes.

After the water was hot, the family went to wash it one after another.

After washing, You's mother closed the door, and the family went back to the room to rest.

The next morning, the family got up at half past six, cooked breakfast and ate it, fed all the domestic animals in the family, You Ma closed the door, and the family went out to plant vegetable seedlings again.

It took a day to plant the vegetable seedlings in the three fields. The family breathed a sigh of relief.

When the two brothers and sisters returned to the house to cook, You's mother went to the mulberry tree again, picked a few tender green mulberry leaves, fed the silkworms, and fed the livestock.

After the two siblings finished cooking, the family began to eat.

After eating, I cleaned up and closed the door before going to sleep.

On the morning of the third day, the family got up at seven o'clock, and after cooking and eating breakfast, You Ma closed the door and walked towards the sugar cane field together.

It didn't take long for me to arrive, and I saw in the distance that the sugar cane was fluttering in the wind, and it had grown very tall.

Mother You put down the basket, and the two siblings took a closer look at the sugar cane, which was very long, but some of it was curved.

The leaves of the sugarcane were a little yellow, and Mother You laughed loudly and said, "Third sister Xiao Ming, you take a knife and cut one out to see." ”

The two siblings nodded and said yes, choose one that grows a little straighter and has fuller joints, Xiao Ming picked up the kitchen knife, put on canvas gloves, and began to chop sugar cane hard.

The third sister and her mother looked around to see how many insects were inflicted on the sugarcane? Because when she was a child, she had been injected once, and she didn't know how many insects she had killed.

Dare to fight only once, and very little. Because I have to eat it myself, it's better to use less pesticides.

With a thudding sound and a sudden click, Xiao Ming finally cut a sugar cane.

He immediately breathed a sigh of relief, put the kitchen knife down, and reached out to peel off the sugarcane leaves.

The leaves of the sugar cane are a little prickly and have small sharp thorns on them, so they wear gloves every time.

After a while, after the third sister and her mother finished reading it, they came over, and Xiao Ming also finished peeling the sugarcane.

After taking a closer look, this sugarcane did not hit insects, and my mother immediately smiled and said, "Some can be cut, some can't be cut, Xiao Ming, you cut this sugarcane first and eat it, see how sweet it is?"

Xiao Ming smiled and said yes, picked up the kitchen knife and cut the sugarcane into three pieces, and gave them to his mother and sister respectively.

The family began to eat a kind of green sugar cane, and the sweetness of their teeth on the sugar cane filled their mouths.

The third sister said while eating: "Mom, this sugar cane is quite sweet." You can chop some and sell it. ”

After eating a few bites, Mama You smiled and said, "This sweetness is okay." Let's cut down the big roots first, and the straight ones first. After you cut it, drag it to the street and sell it!"

Xiao Ming nodded and said yes, the family finished eating the sugarcane in their hands, and You's mother turned around and went back and asked the two brothers and sisters to cut here.

The domestic animals in the family have not been fed yet, and she is now going back to feed them.

The two siblings put on their gloves and carefully watched the cutting of the long big roots. With the sound of a kitchen knife thumping, the two siblings chopped a few.

After cutting for a while, You's mother came again. The family began to chop sugar cane.

This field is planted with a piece of sugar cane, which is cut down and sold every year. One four will also sell for four or five hundred dollars.

When it was first planted, You Ma did not use pesticides, and all the sugarcane that year was insected. After cutting it, you will know when you peel off the sugarcane leaves.

They didn't sell the sugar cane that year, so they had to eat it themselves. It's not easy to sell if you drag it to sell.

When it was planted in the second year, the sugarcane grew a little taller, and You Ma bought a little pesticide to fight, and when it was time to cut it later, You Ma cut it down and peeled off the sugarcane leaves, and this time there were not so many insects.

This time, the sugarcane You Ma dragged it to the street and sold it, and since then, You Ma has been sprayed with pesticides every year.

In this way, the sugarcane can be sold, and a little fertilizer is also put in it. Such a cane grows a little larger roots.

Fertilizer and plant ash can be used, and the wood ash burned at home will be poured into this sugarcane field in addition to the vegetable field.

When it grows tall, it will be tied with a rope a little.

For fear that the wind will blow it off, the grain grass at home can also be used to tie this.
