Chapter 21: Mowing the grass

After a day of drying, the surface of the previously opened ground had dried, and Li Qin went to ask Aunt Ge to borrow a fine-toothed rake and began to carefully rake up the stones and grass roots in the ground. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

Two days ago, it was living soil, and this time it's called loose soil. The process of loosening the soil is much simpler than before, but it is also much more detailed. She had to keep throwing some rocks out, making sure to loosen the ground very carefully.

Two plots of land are less than one acre. In fact, even if it is a big family like the Qi family, it is not allowed to open too much land. Because they are hunters and their main business is hunting, they require that the per capita arable land is less than one acre. Of course, the government will not be so serious about this matter, and climb a few mountains to check whether Orion has reclaimed more land. However, as far as the hunters themselves are concerned, they do not have the time or energy to maneuver so much land. In addition, the land in the mountains is not as good as the flat land, and there are many grasses and forests on the side, so the crops do not like to grow. Coupled with the lack of fertility, it is even more impossible to grow any crops. Therefore, people in the mountains generally only open a little land in front of their own house and plant a seasonal side dish.

It was noon after Li Qin finished raking. After the raking is completed, it is still necessary to go through a day of drying, and the grass seeds in the field are killed again.

After getting the ground and washing it again, Li Qin found that the top of the fence was dry again, so he went to pour some water again.

Aunt Ge came to visit the door in the afternoon, but she didn't notice that the fence was wet, and she saw the flat vegetable field that had been placed by Li Qin.

"You kid, you're really good, you're not idle for a moment, you're a good worker!"

"The day after tomorrow, you can put on the ridges, and then apply fertilizer, if you want to be good, you can dry it for another day, and after turning the ridges, you can grow vegetables!" Aunt Ge said again.

It will take a few days for the relationship to be planted!

"Then I'll cut some thatch tomorrow, the house leaked rain a few days ago, and it hasn't been repaired yet!" That night, the water kept dripping on the lid of the pot, and it was really noisy. But the point is that Ge Changqing said that as long as one place is missed, it will leak more and more. This time it's on top of the pot, and the next time it leaks on the kang, they won't even have to sleep.

"Yo, the grass on this roof, you have to use the grass of the toma, the ordinary thatch does not rain, and it is easy to rot, and it is in vain to continue it. Aunt Ge said, "I'm afraid you don't know, I'll take you to cut it tomorrow!"

"Just that piece of leakage, is a little grass enough?" Li Qin asked with dark eyes.

"Silly boy, how easy is it!" Aunt Ge touched her head, "You have to take down all the grass first, and then make up for the missing yellow mud." When it's dry, replace the grass that I took down. Why don't you need ten bundles and eight bales of grass! But if you want to save trouble, you should carefully select some of the grass you have taken down, mix them up, and mix them in the new grass, so that you can last a few years! In this case, three or four bundles are enough. Don't worry, I'll go with you tomorrow, and it will be cut in more than an hour. Wait for your Uncle Ge to come back and ask him to help you wipe it up. The day after tomorrow, you will not be afraid to add new grass!"

"We haven't built this house in years, have we?"

"It's just rushing to make up for the leakage. Aunt Ge said, "Xiao Fei is alone, and he has to hunt during the day, and he can't be busy." It's different now, there's you at home. Auntie, you are also a capable person. But then again, if it's a major overhaul, it's grass. ”

"How much?"

"Why don't you get five or six hundred bundles!"

"So many!" Li Qin was dumbfounded.

"The grass cover of the tomato is thicker, and you don't need to change the grass for at least ten or eight years!

Also, it takes three or four bales of grass to fill a hole. But if I change it today and tomorrow, I'm always worried that it will leak again when it rains next time. It's just that these five or six hundred bales of grass are too difficult. The tomato grass doesn't look like a reed, just have a fixed wetland to cut. How long does it take to go to the mountains to find little by little? It seems that this repair of the house is not a small project.

These days have been busy and busy, Li Qin is rarely free today, so he thinks about taking out his clothes and mending them. She was a fine needleworker. In my previous life, I learned these things after returning to the capital, and I only had to learn a lot of things in three or two years, especially the rules, so things like Nu Hong, which took a lot of time to learn, were relatively poor. I still remember that I had to embroider a dowry for myself at that time. Although they don't do everything, they give the groom's clothes, shoes and socks, the forehead wiping for the elders, and the sachets for the sisters-in-law, all of which have to be embroidered by themselves to appear sincere. She has also practiced for a long time, but the results are not satisfactory, and she barely reaches the ordinary level. I gave away the things I made with so much care, but I didn't see anyone use them, including her husband.

Just thinking about the previous incident, I heard the handsome and black girls in the yard cry "Wangwang". Li Qin put down his things, leaned on the windowsill and looked, and saw that Sister-in-law Qi had led Qi Duoer into the courtyard.

"Sister-in-law is here!" Li Qin hurriedly greeted, and then pulled his shoes down to the ground.

Sister-in-law Qi is almost thirty years old, she is not very beautiful, but she has a good temperament, and her whole person looks very soft. Qi Duoer is only six years old, wearing a small floral dress with a hem above her knees and two red head ropes on her head, she feels very lively and cute.

"Duo'er grinded me at home all morning, and said that she was going to come to my aunt. Sister-in-law Qi said with a smile. Qi Duoer didn't have any playmates in the mountains, so she wanted to be close to Li Qin, an aunt who was about the same age as her brother. A lot of kids are like this, they like to play with people who are older than themselves.

"It's great to be here, I'm fine at home. Come into the house!" With that, Lin Yu invited the mother and daughter to the house.

Sister-in-law Qi was stunned as soon as she entered the door, but after only a moment, she laughed again.

"Xiaoqin, you are also a capable person, this house has let you clean up, it's really good. "She didn't come to Guo Fei's house before, but she also saw Yu Fei from time to time, just looking at his appearance, it was very different from now, so I understood that this was all Li Qin's credit.

"Just clean up and clean up, sister-in-law, don't mess up. Li Qin smiled, saw that his and Yu Fei's clothes were spread on the kang halfway there, and neatly cleaned them aside, "Sister-in-law, you sit, hehe, this is a bit messy, I'm sorry." ”

"What about needlework?" Sister-in-law Qi asked when she saw the thread reel.

"Well, mend your clothes. ”

Sister-in-law Qi glanced at it twice, "The stitches are quite fine, which is really good." Xiao Fei is blessed now. ”

"It's just trying to sew it stronger, but it's nothing. Li Qin said modestly. She could see that Sister-in-law Qi was genuinely complimenting. It's just that the craftsmanship that was so unacceptable in her previous life can be praised here, which makes her embarrassed.
