Chapter 52: Reclamation Completed
The preserved eggs are marinated, the salted duck eggs are about the same, and the rest of the time is only to wait patiently, Zhao Qingzao is busy with lunch, and he is also idle, but Rao is so, he is still tired after a busy morning.
Seeing this, Shen Changting asked with some curiosity: "You just make salted duck eggs, if you know the goods, you can buy them, so what kind of pine eggs, can you sell them?"
"When the time comes, you'll know when you taste it, and you'll definitely be able to sell it, and it tastes better than salted duck eggs." Zhao Qingzao smiled and said, "And I just tasted the salted duck eggs, and the taste is not very good, the salt is less, and the eggs are a little bad." ”
"Salted duck eggs don't taste like that, you're too picky. Shen Changting smiled and didn't say much.
Zhao Qingzao was speechless, and swore an oath: "Don't worry, even if I only sell salted duck eggs, I sell them better than others." ”
The salted duck eggs in this world are not much different from her previous life, but there are still subtleties, perhaps because the salt is too expensive, the salted duck eggs in this year seem to be too light, and the inside is not strong enough, obviously not well preserved.
Knowing herself and knowing her opponent, Zhao Qingzao felt that even if the Songhua eggs could not be sold at that time, she would be able to grab some markets for the salted duck eggs after all, not to mention that unlike the foolish squatting and selling in this world, Zhao Qingzao also mastered the most popular sales methods in her previous life.
"Okay, I'll wait and see, but how long will it take for you to eat?" Shen Changting asked with a smile.
"About half a month. ”
Zhao Qingzao thought about it, and estimated that it would take at least so much time, this time was not winter, and it would ripen faster.
Seeing this, Shen Changting didn't say anything for a while, anyway, it was still early, and he didn't have much confidence in those things, so he didn't argue about eating anything.
After resting for a while, Shen Changting was busy copying books, Zhao Qingzao was also idle, and was ready to help polish the ink on the side, Shen Changting saw this and asked, "You have nothing else to do today?"
"It's nothing, right?" Zhao Qingzao thought about it, but couldn't think of anything else, so he couldn't help but shake his head, and said suspiciously: "What's wrong, what's wrong?"
"That's not it, it's just that you were arguing with others yesterday, but now you are honest, and you are a little unaccustomed to it. Shen Changting smiled, and what he said almost didn't make Zhao Qingzao angry.
"If you can't speak, don't speak. ”
Zhao Qingzao muttered helplessly, and said angrily: "I didn't deliberately cause trouble yesterday, who let them kill my chickens and pull out my green vegetable seedlings." ”
Speaking of green vegetable seedlings, Zhao Qingzao immediately patted his head and said, "Oh, I actually forgot about this." ”
"What's the matter, what's the matter. Shen Changting's face was full of doubts.
"The vegetable seedlings have been pulled, and I forgot to make up for them, so I have to get some seedlings to make up for them, otherwise I will be busy in vain." ”
Zhao Qingzao said, he didn't care about grinding ink for Shen Changting, put down the work in his hand, and ran straight to the kitchen.
"Slow down. ”
Shen Changting's voice came from behind, Zhao Qingzao didn't care, and after saying that she knew, she went out with a small bamboo basket, and the vegetable seedlings were to be replanted, and she had to find Grandma Niu again.
When Grandma Niu learned of her intention, she smiled and said, "How many vegetable seedlings do you want?"
"It's about thirty or forty trees, and the green vegetable seedlings are enough. Zhao Qingzao said, quite embarrassed, and added: "If not, I'll go to another house and ask." ”
The land in her yard is the size of a palm, and she also planted a lot of vegetables in different categories, each of which takes up a little, but each one does not need much, whether it is seeds or seedlings, a little more from other people's fingers is enough.
"No need, there are still a few seedlings in the ground, anyway, a few handfuls of seeds are scattered, and there are many more, my own family has gone to the ground, and the excess is just used as a vegetable to eat, if you want to go to the field to pull it out." ”
Grandma Niu said, so she pushed Zhao Qingzao and said, "Let's go, I'll take you there, it's the hill that takes care of it on weekdays, and I just happened to go and see what it looks like." ”
"No need, I know where it is, Grandma, don't bother. ”
Zhao Qingzao smiled and said politely, although Grandma Niu is still tough, but after all, she is also old, not as neat as before, many things are that Chu Xingshan does not let her be busy, Zhao Qingzao is naturally embarrassed to trouble, after all, she went to the land last time, and the road is very familiar.
"It's okay, let's go. ”
Grandma Niu waved her hand and began to lock the door very simply, and Zhao Qingzao didn't say much when she saw this.
The land where Chu Xingshan sowed seedlings was not far behind the house, and there were several pieces of land that belonged to Chu Xingshan, Zhao Qingzao looked at it, and did not find the figure of Chu Xingshan, knowing that this guy was afraid that he would be busy somewhere else, so he didn't ask much.
Familiar with the road, he picked up the green vegetable seedlings that grew well in Grandma Niu's field, and used a small shovel to root them together, pulling out more than 30 trees, and it was estimated that it was almost enough, so it stopped.
"Grandma, I have pulled out these vegetable seedlings, you have to eat several meals, or I will give you silver." ”
On the way back, Zhao Qingzao was quite embarrassed, took out a little loose copper plate, and handed it to Grandma Niu.
Grandma Niu's eyes widened, and she said, "You girl, what nonsense are you talking about, what are these two vegetable seedlings worth, just stir-fry, not enough for half a plate, just take it directly." ”
"But I've been bothering you like this, and I'm really a little sorry, so you can accept it. Zhao Qingzao said and put the copper plate into Grandma Niu's pocket.
"Don't mess around, you're deliberately sneering about me, take it back!" Grandma Niu said, her tone was also a little stern, obviously really angered by Zhao Qingzao's actions.
Seeing this, Zhao Qingzao had no choice but to put the money back in his pocket, thought about it, and said, "Since Grandma doesn't accept it, then I'm welcome." ”
"You're welcome, I've taken care of Changting for so long, but I've never seen him so angry, but you treat us as outsiders, it's not like that. Grandma Niu snorted.
Although Grandma Niu said what she said, she had a better impression of Zhao Qingzao, after all, love is love, whether others can appreciate it is another thing, Zhao Qingzao can do this, it means that her favor is not in vain, and no one likes ungrateful white-eyed wolves.
"Hehe, that's good, when my salted duck eggs and Songhua eggs are ready, I will definitely send them to you to try when the time comes." ”
Zhao Qingzao smiled sweetly, carried the bamboo basket, and continued: "Then I'll go back first." ”
"Go ahead, but you have to be careful, I'll wait for your salted duck eggs." ”
Looking at Zhao Qingzao's back, Grandma Niu scolded with a smile.
……
As soon as he entered his yard, Zhao Qingzao put the bamboo basket in the vegetable garden, and then went home with a small short hoe and came to the field.
"The soil must be loosened first, otherwise the soil will be too hard and the seedlings will not survive. ”
Thinking of what Chu Xingshan said last time, Zhao Qingzao was in good spirits and began to be busy loosening the soil, from the last time the soil was loosened to now, it was only a few days, so the soil in the ground was still very loose, she just shoveled off the original seedling roots, instantly loosened the surrounding soil, and then dug a small pit to plant the seedlings in.
After being busy for an hour, Zhao Qingzao touched the beads of sweat on his forehead, looked at it, and found that nothing had changed, and he was also relieved.
Then I carried half a bucket of water and poured it roughly, and I was relieved to call it a day, which was not difficult at all, and naturally it would not make her really tired.
"Green jujube, green jujube, are you at home?"
Before Zhao Qingzao came out of the ground, a slightly rough voice came from outside the courtyard.
As soon as Zhao Qingzao heard this voice, he knew who it was, and immediately beckoned: "Brother Chu, I'm busy working in the field, you come in and say, what's the matter?" ”
At this time, Shen Changting, who was busy copying books in the house, was also alarmed by Chu Xingshan's loud voice, appeared at the door, and said with a smile: "Xingshan, why are you here, I haven't seen you come for a few days." ”
"Hehe, I've been busy these days. Chu Xingshan grinned.
Because Zhao Qingzao was busy working in the field and didn't come out for a while, the first thing Chu Xingshan saw was Shen Changting, and he couldn't help but say to Shen Changting: "Brother Changting, what are you busy with?"
"Nothing, copying books at home. Shen Changting smiled and greeted: "Come in and do it, drink saliva first, the green jujube is busy replenishing the seedlings, and it will come over in a while." ”
As soon as Shen Changting's words fell, he heard Zhao Qingzao's voice coming from the small vegetable field, "Yes, Brother Chu, you go into the house to rest, I'll clean up and come over." ”
"Good. ”
Seeing this, Chu Xingshan didn't refuse, he was still sweating on his forehead at this time, obviously he was busy enough today.
Zhao Qingzao came back very quickly, after all, the field was almost busy, and she just pulled out the weeds that had just emerged.
When Zhao Qingzao returned to the house, he saw Chu Xingshan talking to Shen Changting about this, and couldn't help laughing: "What are you talking about?"
"Speaking of reclamation, you asked the mountain to help reclamation?"
Shen Changting turned his head at this time and looked at Zhao Qingzao, as if he was a little dissatisfied with this kind of thing and troublesome Chu Xingshan.
"yes. Zhao Qingzao didn't notice anything else, nodded and said: "I didn't think that there was no land to plant at home, I couldn't be idle, I just wanted to plant something, so I had to reclaim the wasteland, and I couldn't be busy alone, so I could only ask Brother Chu for help." ”
"What kind of help, Qingjube is paid. Chu Xingshan hurriedly explained.
After all, Zhao Qingzao's share of the silver is really thick, Chu Xingshan is upright temperament, he is already deserved, where can he dare to say what kind of help, he still feels that there is too much silver and wants to return a little.
Shen Changting listened to what Chu Xingshan said, his face relaxed, since Zhao Qingzao gave the money, he naturally wouldn't blame anything.
Zhao Qingzao smiled, asked Chu Xingshan, and said, "Brother Chu, you came here at this time, is the mountain opened?"
"Well, I just wanted you to take a look. Chu Xingshan nodded and said with a smile: "Not only is it good for you, but I also reclaimed a piece of wasteland with my own family." ”
When Zhao Qingzao heard this, she couldn't sit still, after all, this was related to her fortune plan, and immediately said: "So fast, go, take me to see." ”
"Hehe, I'm here to ask you to see it. ”
Chu Xingshan stood up as he spoke.
Zhao Qingzao immediately said to Shen Changting: "Brother Changting, you rest at home, I'll go and see the land." ”
"Forget it, I'll go too, just go out for a walk, I can't even know where my house is. ”
Shen Changting said that he put down his pen and planned to take a look, he was worried that the area was too large, and if Zhao Qingzao was too busy to work at that time, he would not agree to let Zhao Qingzao go to work anyway.
Seeing this, Zhao Qingzao smiled and didn't refuse, so the three of them cleaned up and went out.
At the foot of the back mountain, the river water is clear and the grass is green.
On the soothing hillside next to the river, the place that was originally overgrown with weeds now has two more open spaces next to each other, and it seems that each piece is about the same area, about an acre.
