Chapter 207: Go to the clouds

Then, Boss Zhao talked about the locals' attention to planting trees in the yard of the house, not planting mulberry in the front, not planting willows in the back, and not planting peach trees in the garden......

In the end, they discussed and decided: plant two pomegranates in front of the flower beds and vegetable fields on both sides of the courtyard, and plant many sons and many blessings, plant a persimmon tree and a jujube tree on the side of the well, and plant a phoenix plane tree in the courtyard courtyard and the courtyard gate building in order to provide shade in summer.

I am afraid of the first snow at the end of the month, and the time to plant trees is only about half a month. As soon as the decision was made, I hurried to buy the saplings. After breakfast the next day, Zhao Boss and his son Zhao Long took Hai'er to drive the carriage to the county market by the Wuyang River to buy saplings.

This sapling market has only two seasons a year. One is around the Qingming Festival in spring, this season is long, there are nearly two months before and after; one season is the end of autumn and the beginning of winter, and the spring of October is small, this season is very short, only half a month to about 20 days.

They walked along the seedling market by the river, and it was really lively. Most of the people here are small tree managers who plant in the fields according to their own preferences.

Although the number of seedlings sold by each family is not large, and the largest number of operators are twenty or thirty seedlings in front of them, but the different seedlings in each family are entangled together, and the varieties are complete enough.

Fruit trees include pear trees, peach trees, apricot trees, persimmon trees, jujube trees, and pomegranate trees...... Seedlings, poplars, willows, sycamores, elms, black locusts, acacia trees......

Su Hai'er stood in front of the stump with the thick legs of an adult and the roots of the original soil covered with this grain grass, and asked the tree seller in his forties: "Big brother, what kind of tree is this tree in your family?"

"Sycamore trees. ”

"Can this big tree survive in winter?"

"The roots carry the original soil, and they can live!"

"How many years have you planted this tree, and it's so thick?"

"More than three years. ”

"Anything else?"

"There are two more in the house!"

"Is your home far from here?"

"It's not far from the west side of the road. ”

He discussed with Boss Zhao: "Uncle Zhao, there are few trees in my yard, and it will take a few years to grow up when planting small trees. We might as well buy this big tree and go home, and we will be able to enjoy the shade next year!"

Boss Zhao's face was embarrassed: "I'm afraid this big tree is not easy to plant!"

Zhao Long said: "As long as you manage it well, you can live!"

"Okay!"

They went inside and bought the fruit trees they had decided to buy, and came back to buy two plane trees with thick legs, which they carried into the wagon. Haier invited them to a mutton steamed bun at a restaurant and drove the carriage home.

The next day, they dug pits, fertilized and planted trees to water the good places...... They wrapped the bodies of large and small trees with straw, especially the big trees, from head to toe, and wrapped them with straw to keep them warm from the cold.

Three days after the tree was planted, it began to fall at night. However, after breakfast the next day, the sun came out, and the snow grits that had fallen in the night were soon gone.

Hai'er circled around the grass-clothed tree, looked at the warm sun, and wondered: "Why is it snowing here and not blowing strong winds?"

Li Weiyi said: "The climate here is still very good. It's freezing and snowy in our place now!"

Levi retched as he spoke. Su Haier hurriedly came over and asked, "What's wrong with you?"

"Maybe I'm pregnant!" she wiped her mouth.

"That's a good thing!" he grabbed her wrist and felt her pulse, "It's true!"

Su Haier hurriedly shouted into the house: "Mom, Wei Yi is pregnant with a doll." ”

Mei Ga came out happily when she heard this: "Great! Our Su Li League has a sister!"

"Mom, let's open the infirmary here! We all learn from you! The family will have something to do!"

"Don't worry, let's take a look first!"

Su Wu walked in the door happily: "What are you not in a hurry?"

"Daddy, you're back!" Subel and Levi shouted in unison.

"Hehe......" Su Wu smiled and said, "I'm back!"

Su Jien led two horses into the door: "Mom!"

"Heh, you're back with your father!" said Mei Ga.

"Big brother, I'm coming!" Su Bei'er stepped forward to help unload the luggage and saddle, pulled the reins, led the horse into the stable in the side courtyard, and fed it. Go back to the house and pack up the guest room and let Su Jien rest.

Mei Ga pulled Li Wei into the stove room to cook, and Su Wu entered the house and lay on the hot kang. Early yesterday morning, they set out from Chang'an on horseback, only to eat and rest for a while at two post stations, galloping day and night, and when they came back this morning, they lay down tired and fell asleep.

After the noodles were rolled out and the vegetables were fried, Mei Ga looked at the sleeping man, couldn't bear to wake up, and said to her daughter-in-law, "Wei Yi, you can also rest." Your daddy they're awake, I'll come down there. ”

No one bothered them, Su Wu and Su Jien slept in the sunset and only woke up, and they had a big bowl of dry noodles before they were refreshed. Under the oil lamp, the family sat on the hot kang and talked.

Su Jien said to Su Wu: "Daddy, I will set off for Yunzhong early tomorrow morning! If it's late, I'm afraid it will be stopped by heavy snow!"

As soon as Hai'er heard that Su Jien was going to the clouds, he hurriedly asked, "Big brother, how many people are in your group?"

"I'm one. ”

When Hai'er heard this, she said to Su Wu: "Daddy, let me go with my eldest brother, I am a companion on the road!"

Su Wu looked at Mei Ga for advice. Mei Ga said: "That's the case, if your father agrees, I agree!"

Su Wu smiled and pointed at his wife and asked his son, "Are you really willing?"

"I do!" Haier said firmly.

Su Wu asked his daughter-in-law, "Wei Yi, do you want him to go?"

Levi pondered: "I, I think, I do!"

"Okay, you go with your eldest brother and practice your skills!" Su Wu agreed.

Su Jien said: "Since Hai'er wants to be my companion, let's push it to the day after tomorrow!"

Hai'er asked, "Why?"

"When you go far away, you have to pack your bags!"

"Hey, when a man goes out, just take two clothes, it's a lot of things to bring!" Hai'er said, "Let's leave tomorrow!"

At night, the young couple lies on the kang, and the woman snuggles up to the man's strong chest. Hai'er asked, "Wei Yi, how did you agree to let me go to the clouds?"

"I know your mind!"

"Tell me, what is my mind?" Hai'er hugged her daughter-in-law.

"You want to go down, Hudi's way. Wei Yi said, "I want to go too, but I can't!

"In the old luck of Brother Jien, I'm not afraid!" he kissed his daughter-in-law, "You take care of the baby at home, half a month will pass soon!"

"I know!" she said, "sleep, to-morrow you are on your way." ”

The old couple was lying on the hot kang, and Mei Ga said to the man worriedly: "Husband, I'm worried that Hai and Er's things are rough and unstable!"

"The more you have experienced, the more calm you will be!" he comforted, "Don't worry, Jien is a careful person, and his martial arts are not bad, and he will protect your son!"

"You have to give him a special explanation tomorrow, and take care of Hai'er on the way!"
