Chapter 59 Pioneering Seedling Transplanting
The uncle immediately took action, saying as he walked: "That's okay! I'm going to go and choose a few fields to put water in the rice fields. You and your second uncle will help you select the rice seeds you bought, how to select, dry the seeds, and germinate, as soon as you say it, your second uncle will know. ”
"Okay! I'm going to tell my second uncle that I still have a lot of things to do, and I'm afraid I don't have time to get rice seeds with my second uncle. ”
When the uncle heard what Er Ya said, he remembered that his nephew and daughter-in-law still had a lot of things to do, and she had to do them.
I had to follow Fang Cai's words and say, "Hey! Then you look at the arrangement, but since you and your mother's family have already started to leave, then you go back to your parents' house tomorrow and talk to your father. I'll go say hello to your grandfather's house and see if he wants to do it together!" ”
Erya really admires the uncle, he will think of others in everything, and he will never think about the person who hides it.
"Yes! If you don't say it, I'm going to go back today and tell my dad about it. ”
As the uncle walked, he suddenly remembered that the sixth grandfather had explained his affairs, so he wanted to ask Erya's opinion.
"Xiaohu daughter-in-law, the sixth grandfather means to let the family's land and property be divided clearly, write a evidence, and in the future, if their brothers marry a daughter-in-law and don't want to live together, let them take the land and property out."
"This!" Erya was a little embarrassed.
Divide it! In the future, there are still a lot of big things that need to be picked up by several brothers.
Don't divide it! Just like what Grandpa is worried about, he may not be able to be reluctant in the future, and he will have a dispute.
"Uncle, it's up to you to decide this matter with your second uncle! There is also the money for the tea this time, I plan that the brothers will help pick the tea, and each of them will give one hundred taels as a hardship fee. In addition, I will give you 500 taels for household expenses, and I have other arrangements for the rest. I won't leave it to you for the time being. ”
Erya thought that if there was no owner in the General Mountain, he would buy a few hills, especially those with tea trees, and at least five large tea gardens could be opened.
But she didn't want anyone to know about it, and first, she didn't want anyone to make trouble; Second, she also wanted to use the mountain to adopt and train orphans, abandoned children, and homeless beggars.
Once what she wants to do is done, her family must have at least two caravans running north and south, and this caravan will start to be cultivated now.
Moreover, the caravan must also belong to her, and she will not allow anyone to touch it.
"Okay! Yes! It's up to you! It's just that several of their brothers are living at home, so do they need to give them another money? ”
Erya smiled: "Of course I want to give it!" However, you and the second uncle can ask them to turn it in! ”
Uncle said with a bitter face: "They now know a few words with you, and after learning skills, the tail is up to the sky." Who will listen to me! ”
"Don't worry, I think Daman and Dahong are very filial! Besides, you and your aunt are their fathers, and you have to tell them about your daughter-in-law and build a house. In order to marry a daughter-in-law, they will offer it with their own hands, and I beg you to take it. ”
When the uncle heard Erya talk about marrying a daughter-in-law, he smiled happily.
Oh, yes! Now that my family can finally ask someone to find a daughter-in-law for my son without any burden, I have to discuss it with my child's mother at night.
Daman and Xiaohu went to pick tea again, and Erya went to her mother's house.
After telling her father about seedling transplanting, she talked about her private affairs: "Dad! I'll give you three hundred taels, and you can help me find a plot of land in the town and build a dozen houses. I'm going to recruit all the ** people around me who are having a hard time living at home. I wanted to open a workshop, but I lacked people who could concentrate on what I did. ”
The second girl father didn't say anything: "Okay!" When I finish raising the seedlings, I'll do your business. It's just what kind of house do you want to build? ”
"When the time comes, I will give you the drawings, and just build according to the drawings. Also, when my mother comes back, you can tell my mother, let her be okay and ask around, where are there children without parents who can't live a life, or abandoned children, and women and girls who have lost their support. As soon as your house is built, I will gather them over there, and you can drag your children and daughters. ”
The second father felt that his daughter was a little exaggerated, but he didn't stop him. just heard that this meant that he was going back, and hurriedly stopped: "Aren't you waiting for your mother to come back?" She came back after watering the vegetables, very quickly. ”
The second girl is in a hurry to go back, this mother's house is far away, and it is not very far. You can walk back and forth in an afternoon, if you want to say that it is not far, it will take more than an hour to walk, and this has not dragged a small dragon.
"Don't wait, I still have to hurry back to fry tea, and I'll bring two catties of tea back to you and grandpa in a few days!"
As soon as the second girl heard about such a precious thing, he hurriedly excused himself: "Don't bring it here!" So expensive things are not the stuff we drink with mud legs. ”
"Whatever is expensive, it is all wild tea that we pick ourselves, and we fry it blindly, and it doesn't cost money. You and your grandfather drink a few cups of tea every day to clear the stomach and intestines, which is still good for the body. "The second girl of good tea is reluctant to take it back, this time the first-class one gets it back, it is always due.
At noon on the third day when Shopkeeper Chen returned home, he brought his second son and third grandson over.
When they arrived, Erya and the others went to pick tea, but they hadn't come back yet. The eldest uncle and the second uncle received three generations of the family.
After the shopkeeper Chen asked his children to greet the uncle and second uncle of the Wang family, he introduced his son and grandson to the two Wang family, "Big brother, second brother, this big one is the second child of my family, and this little one is the second child of my eldest son's family." I thought that my family had learned it, and I was steady, so I brought them here. Hey! ”
The uncle rubbed his hands honestly, laughed with the shopkeeper Chen, and responded vaguely: "Yes!" Oh, yes! ”
The second uncle hurriedly beckoned them into the house: "Come!" Come! The big shopkeeper, go into the house and sit, drink saliva! ”
When Erya came back, he saw a young man in his twenties and a young man in his teens, and he smiled. This shopkeeper Chen is really open-minded, and he even lets his children learn this, doesn't it mean that the status of craftsmen is very low?
In addition to briefly telling them, most of the carbon, temperature, and duration of the fire when roasting tea and pulling the fire are for them to watch and ponder by themselves.
Shopkeeper Chen heard that there was still someone who copied Gu Yuqian tea, so he was busy asking the uncle of the Wang family to help collect it.
Because the picking of their tea herbs is uneven, the price is also high.
The Dashan family had thirteen taels less than a catty, and received one hundred taels of silver per catty. got eighty-one taels of silver, because he didn't know that he could sell it for money before, Dashan Dad drank one or two taels of tea, and now he can't beat his chest and spit it out.
Hongxia's tea was also collected for one hundred and twenty pounds, and after getting one hundred and twenty taels of silver, she happily ran home with the silver ticket, and the child didn't want it. It was dark, and the couple hurried back to their parents' house to pick up the child.
The most proud is Hongyun, she is skillful and fast, and the tea she picks is good and many, almost the same level as Erya's tea, but it is a pity that it is not packaged in a porcelain bottle like Erya, and it is only sold for two hundred taels and one catty. She got nearly four hundred taels of silver tickets at once! Excited and excited, no one shared, so she had to run into the house and hug her mother's waist, and she didn't let go, and the eldest aunt was almost out of breath by her.
Hongye got more than two hundred taels, but it made her embarrassed for a while, and she was reluctant to hand over her mother-in-law, and she was afraid that her mother-in-law would be unhappy if she didn't hand it over.
The second aunt poked Hongye's head with her finger fiercely, gritting her teeth: "You stupid girl, give your mother-in-law a hundred taels, and keep the rest for yourself." Your mother-in-law didn't say anything about you, and she was very happy. ”
Momiji rubbed the corner of his forehead that was poked, and shouted: "What you said is light, even a hundred taels I feel distressed." ”
"Then you look at it yourself, anyway, you have to give!"
The excitement of tea will eventually pass, and the tea after the rain in the valley will also be taken away by the shopkeeper Chen.
Er Ya left more than ten catties, two catties for his grandfather, two catties for his mother's family, the shopkeeper of Chunlintang and his friends, and the shopkeeper of Xiuzhuang each left one catty. There are still three catties left to drink at home, and they don't drink much tea, and the most they drink is Erya.
When you're done with the tea, it's time to sow the seeds.
Other people's families have already sown seeds, and the newly purchased fields of the Erya family have not moved. Those people nearby thought that the Huang family's field had not been sold yet, so there were few who were curious.
It's Erya's mother's family, Liu Laishun's family, and they are about to be nagged and broken.
"Liu Laishun, why don't you sow seeds at home? Are you going to plant two crops this year? ”
Liu Laishun replied helplessly: "No! I'm thinking about transplanting this year and seeing how the harvest goes! ”
Another person felt that Liu Laishun was a bit nonsense, so he persuaded him: "Come to Shun!" It's not that I'm talking about you, if you try, it's not impossible to take one or two acres of land. Why are you so bold as to take all the fields and try them? Aren't you crazy? ”
Erya's grandfather has been a little embarrassed since he was hit by Erya, and he doesn't care much about family affairs. Seeing that his son listened to his granddaughter's words, such a reckless nonsense, he was not angry or persuasive, but just watched silently.
Grandpa's family is much better, they are all grandpa's juniors, and no one dares to talk nonsense in front of him. They were just staring at this side secretly, thinking that if they really had more harvests than their traditional farming, they would follow suit the next year.
When it was time to transplant, Erya first taught his family how to pull seedlings and how to plant seedlings.
First of all, he was taught to pull out the seedlings, "You see, the first thing is to take out a small wisp of the root of the seedling with the right hand, and the abdomen of the left hand is close to the mouth of the tiger in the right hand, and hold the middle end of the seedling. Then, step firmly on the clay board with your right hand and pull it out. Remember, don't pull hard, it's easy to break the roots. ”
They only tried three or four times each, and they were fully skilled.
Erya also taught them to plant seedlings, "This stick is four feet long, measure out a grid, pull two ropes at both ends of the field and tie it, and then in the space between the two ropes, plant six pinches of seedlings, and try to keep the same between each row, so as to facilitate the seedlings later." Each pinch of rice is five or six early rice, if it is late rice, only two or three are good, if it is medium rice, one is good. Also, when planting, you must plant the seedlings straight into the soil, and do not bend the roots, otherwise they will all be dead seedlings. Not only is the seeds wasted, but it will also be particularly troublesome to replenish the seedlings at that time. ”
Everyone is watching and doing their hands, these are non-technical jobs, and they are all smart young men, and they quickly learned ten ten.
After Daman learned it, he went to his grandfather's house to teach people to pull out seedlings and plant seedlings, while Xiaohu was busy going to Liu's house to teach his father-in-law and brothers-in-law.
Here Dahong and the girls' husbands, second uncles and his three sons also learned.
Originally, there was no plan for the women to go to the fields, but I couldn't find anyone who could plant rice. Let's teach it now, but I'm afraid that those people don't learn well and spoil the seedlings. In the end, I had to drive the eldest uncle, the second aunt, Hongxia, Hongyun, Hongye, and Hongguo off the field.
It's just that those men didn't expect that the women were in a few fields downstream, faster than them.
There are fifteen adults and children on the men's side, and seven adults and children on the women's side, (the second aunt and Hongxiu cook breakfast and dinner at home and take the children.) )
The men only planted about ten acres a day, and the women planted nearly six or seven acres.
Then the men went crazy and tried their best to compete with the women the next day, but in six or seven days, more than 100 acres of paddy fields were planted.
Grandpa's family is busy, and it can't help to ask a few grandchildren to come over to help.
After that, the remaining few seedling fields have to be turned over and leveled, and the uncle, the second uncle and a few boys can be done in a day or two.
The women were finally able to rest, and for the next few days, they all screamed, with low back pain, butt pain, and leg pain!
