Chapter Ninety-Eight

"Plant the moon season here, and put a few pots of hydrangeas here. Those bamboos are planted at the back of the house, near the recreation area, and then a stone table and stone bench are set up. ”

The Zhen family's house in Qijia Village is nearing the finishing stage, and the interior decoration has begun. Recently, Zhen Meili has been busy arranging the outdoor landscape, taking out all the trees and flowers that can be used in the space, and then handing them over to the workers to plant.

All the flowers and plants to be used are cultivated by Zhen Meili from the space, which is obviously more vibrant than ordinary plants on the market. For the plants prepared by Zhen Meili no matter how tossed and not withered, the workers were also amazed.

Zhen Meili came to the entrance of the farmhouse again, that is, on the side near the guest room, the original dirt slope was built with a staircase. The bluestone staircase is laid wide and gentle, and a thick rope is pulled in the middle as a handrail.

"The slope is planted with lavender, starry sky, daisies, and a fence with roses at the bottom. Camellia sinensis is planted on both sides of the staircase as an insulation. ”

One side of the dirt slope used to build the house is connected to the mountain of Zhen's bag, and the other three sides are ready to be used for planting flowers except for stairs. The workers were told about the places where flowers needed to be planted in a large area, and Zhen Meimei kept the other details to do it herself. It's the end of March, the season of spring flowers, and when these flowers are planted, there will definitely be a sea of flowers.

The vegetables in the field have begun to be supplied fresh every day, and it has only been half a month, and two crops of vegetables have been harvested. The person who the village chief Qi helped Zhen Meili find to help take care of the vegetables was an uncle in his fifties in the village.

Uncle Qi's full name is Qi Weiqing, and he is the same generation as the village chief, the children are all in the city, and they are the only two left in the village. Qi Weiqing's land was sold a few years ago, because the children were worried that the old couple would not be able to get so much land, so they only left a little to grow some for their own food.

Uncle Qi and Aunt Qi, who have been busy in the fields all her life, have nothing to do, and Aunt Qi can still go to her son's house to help see her grandson on weekdays, two or three times a week.

Uncle Qi is idle and panicked, and he doesn't like to run to the city. happened to know that the village chief helped the Zhen family find someone to clean up the vegetable patch, so he immediately came to sign up. Village Chief Qi also knew that Uncle Qi was a good hand at farming, so he hired Uncle Qi for Zhen Meimei.

"Uncle, you've worked hard, what's going on in the field, is there no problem?"

Zhen Meili saw Uncle Qi walking around the field, so she went over to chat with him and care about it.

"Oh, it's beautiful, come and see the house? Your house is very beautiful and magnificent. I'm just idle and have nothing to come and see, it's also strange, you don't even have a single insect in this vegetable field, and this dish is in spirit. , it's comfortable to look at. ”

"Hehe, uncle, if you don't grow worms, that's my secret weapon. Zhen Meimei said mysteriously.

In fact, Zhen Meili often takes the time to pour some space spring water on the vegetable field, and adding one or two drops to an acre of land can ensure the healthy growth of vegetables. For this reason, Zhen Meili deliberately dug a well by the vegetable field, explaining that the vegetable field must be watered with well water, and every time she came to Qijia Village, she added half a cup of spring water to the well.

"Oh, you have to pay attention to beauty, it's better to use less pesticides, and now everyone pays attention to green vegetables. Don't be blind if you can't sell the food at that time. ”

Uncle Qi didn't know what Zhen Meimei's secret weapon was, but it could be a new type of pesticide that could control pests so effectively, so he said kindly.

"Uncle, don't worry, I don't use pesticides. I basically take care of this vegetable plot by yourself, you see where I use pesticides. I guess I can harvest another crop in the next two days, right? When the time comes, I will ask someone to come to the village to collect it, and you can help me keep an eye on it. ”

"Okay, no problem. ”

Zhen Meimei, the vegetables in this field, tasted it herself, although she often came to pour some space spring water, but it may be because of the land, it is still worse than the vegetables that come out of the space, but it is still a little more delicious than the average.

Every other day, a few drivers in the store came to the village to collect the dishes, which were priced half cheaper than the space, and a new counter was opened in the store.

Some customers who are reluctant to eat space dishes every day are very fond of this new vegetable on the shelves. Although the taste is a little worse, it is green and pollution-free, and you can buy it every day at a cheaper price. As for the previous space vegetables, you can buy them once a week to improve your diet.

Zhen Meimei's idea is to completely replace space dishes with vegetables from Qijia Village, and she is still trying little by little. Let everyone slowly accept the vegetables in Qijia Village, and then treat the space vegetables as a high-quality product, and only provide a limited amount every day. After all, she didn't want to tie herself up, tie up Xing'er, and keep taking space to grow vegetables in order to provide vegetables every day.

In the future, I only want to use it to grow some medicinal herbs that are not easy to get outside, and to grow some fruits that are not suitable for planting locally according to my own preferences.

Zhen Meili went to the mountain again, and the fruit trees had already been planted, and they were all cultivated in space, so they could bear fruit this year.

The peach blossoms and cherry blossoms have already bloomed, but unfortunately no one has come to enjoy them this year. Apples and plums have also begun to bud, and it is estimated that they will bloom soon.

Maybe when you move next month, you can enjoy the beautiful scenery of fruit trees blooming all over the mountain.

The fruit trees on the mountain are also taken care of by people, because the fruit trees are all produced in space, so you don't have to worry about growing and fruiting, so it doesn't matter if you are not a professional fruit grower.

So Zhen Meili asked the village chief Qi to find a young and strong young man, patrolling the mountains during the day, and at night Zhen Meili specially asked Xue'er to train two wolf dogs, guarding the fruit forest one after the other.

Qi Nan is the head of the village of Qi who came to see the fruit forest, the young man is 28 years old this year, and he has no object yet. Because my father worked on the construction site in his early years, he had an accident and had one leg amputated. The old lady took care of his father all the year round, and she was busy with the crops in the field, and her body was exhausted. Originally, the compensation his father received that year was reserved for his son to marry his daughter-in-law, and his mother spent it on medical treatment when she was sick. Qi Nan didn't study well, he didn't study after graduating from junior high school, and he has been working as a farmer at home, and the family conditions are too difficult.

Now Qi Nan helps Zhen Meili look at the fruit forest, as long as she goes up the mountain from time to time every day, and does not delay the work in her own field, she still has a salary of 1,500 per month. This is also temporary, the Zhen family's fruit grove has not yet begun to bear fruit, and the farmhouse has not yet started to open. When everything is on the right track, Qi Nan may have to live in the mountains, and he may not be able to take care of the work in the field at that time, and Zhen Meili will also give him a salary increase.

"Chasing the wind, thunder. ”

Zhen Meili happened to meet Qi Nan and the two wolf dogs who came to patrol the mountain, because Qi Nan must be close to the two wolf dogs, and they need to cultivate a tacit understanding when they want to patrol the mountain together in the future. So these two dogs are now fed by Qi Nan, and they will also patrol the mountains with Qi Nan during the day.

"Wow Wow...... Wow!"

Seeing the real owner coming, the two dogs were also very excited, in fact, they just smelled Zhen Meimei's scent and came here. It's rare that Zhen Meili didn't bring Xue'er with them today, and Chasing Wind and Thunder can get close to the owner.

It's difficult to have more pets, especially Zhen Meimei's pets have drunk spring water, and with wisdom, they are all very good at competing for pets. Usually Xue'er and Honey come first, but these two are not allowed to approach Zhen Meimei, especially since Xue'er is their boss, and they can't compete with it.

Zhen Meili touched the two dogs that surrounded her and rubbed around her, and greeted Qi Nan.

"Brother Qi, how is the work, are you okay on the mountain?"

"It's all good. ”

Qi Nan is a silent person, who farms at home at a young age, and does not have much contact with outsiders, especially young ladies. So every time I talk to Zhen Meimei, I can be as concise as I can. Zhen Meili also understands his temperament, and she doesn't talk to him much, and she will take her time in the future, since she is her employee, she will definitely help him correct it.

"It's not time to be busy now, you don't have to stay in the mountains all the time, go home more often to accompany your parents, help them, just chase the wind and thunder to guard. After a while, when you get busy, it's hard to go down the mountain. ”

"Hmm. ”

I don't know if he listened or not, but after saying goodbye to Zhen Meili, Qi Nan continued to patrol the mountain with two dogs.
