Chapter 15 Planting
After getting the seeds in the village storehouse, it was already in the middle of the sky, and Yi Mu wandered in the clearing. The pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info because he still didn't know where his farmland was and what tools he used, but for doing farm work, Yi Muyuan's owner still found a lot of useful information in his memory.
The farm tools can get what Aunt Teucer wants, but Yi Mu doesn't want to trouble Aunt Teucer.
At this moment, Yi Mu, who was hesitating, found the second uncle of his own family, a middle-aged man with a scruffy beard, with brown and black hair like Yi Mu. He seemed to be looking for someone.
"Second uncle." Yi Mu approached him.
"Hmm." The middle-aged man with a scruffy beard replied casually and said, "I heard the village chief say that you want to plant?" ”
Yi Mu said, "Yes, I don't know if I can succeed in the last time." ”
The bearded second uncle looked at the young man Yi Mu in front of him with some surprise, he thought that Yi Mu had just let go of the burden of the past and was getting better, but he didn't expect that this young man had grown a little. Some brought him a little unexpected growth.
After thinking about it, the second uncle said to Yi Mu, "I'll help you." After speaking, without waiting for Yi Mu to reply, he snatched the seed. led Yi Mu directly to the village chief's house to take away a six-tooth nail rake and a small hoe. Of course, the price of this goods will be returned after the first round of Yimu's fruit powder harvest. The village chief waved his hand indifferently, looking like he was giving it to you.
The weather was clear and cloudless, with the occasional mountain wind rustling the leaves.
Yi Mu had already arrived at his farmland at this time. A six-tooth nail rake in one hand and a borrowed wooden barrel in the other. Looking at the large farmland overgrown with weeds in front of me, I suddenly felt a burst of powerlessness and weakness.
"I'll help you. This acre and a half of wasteland is yours. The second uncle said suddenly.
Yi Mu was a little dumbfounded, "What do you mean to help here, second uncle, what did you help me?" Is the land coming? But he still said in his mouth: "Thank you, second uncle." ”
This piece of farmland is not very large compared to the nearby ones, because of the weeds, it is also very conspicuous, and it is far from the location of rivers or canals, which is not a good piece of fertile land, but because it is close to a small piece of artificial woodland, it is convenient to enjoy the cool rest.
This is a regular rectangular dry land, and the first difficulty that Yi Mu faces is a large number of weeds, tenacious and deep-rooted, uneven old and new weeds.
Fortunately, Yi Mu also had some experience in planting, and with his experience, Yi Mu began to take out a six-tooth nail rake and start planing. Soon Yi Mu discovered the ravines left over from the past, with patches of ridges.
Loosening the land with a six-tooth nail rake facilitates weeding on the one hand, and completes the next step on the other hand.
Planting is very hard and laborious, not to mention that Yi Mu is still a thirteen-year-old boy, almost every time he cultivates a piece of land, he has to straighten up and support his waist, and in the later stage, he basically digs it, stops it, and combs it a few times.
The second uncle was sitting in the grove watching this man-grass battle, shaking his head and nodding his head, still muttering to himself: "Why didn't this kid find out before, his perseverance is good, but his strength is pitiful."
It was almost noon, and Yi Mu found that the ground he had hoeed was less than a minute and a half, and the ground he had hoeed was also very bad, and he had to be combed in the future. Thinking of watering and sowing, Yi Mu is one head and two big. The key is the upcoming rainy season, and the time is very urgent, and it is estimated that there will only be three days at most. "Do you want to give up some farmland?" Yi Mu asked himself as he looked at the remaining farmland.
Thinking of this, Yi Mu gritted his teeth and whispered to himself: "It's not to your limit yet, you can hoe as much as you can." After saying that, he straightened his waist again, and put more force on the hoe ground.
Seeing this scene, the second uncle, who was enjoying the cool in the bushes, did not talk to himself anymore, but lowered his head and thought a little.
After lunch, Yi Mu rested for a yellow hour. After bringing a gourd containing water and a few special wheat rolls that he bought, Yi Muyou began to work hard in the next morning.
As the sun sets, a **** boy with a top body is holding a white gourd and drinking the last of some water. The early spring was not very hot, but the sun was still very hot, so Yi Mu simply took off his shirt and reduced some of the burden.
Yi Mu threw away the six-tooth nail rake, and saw that the three or four points of farmland he had hoeed out finally accounted for a lot of weight in the entire field, and he couldn't help but feel a little proud in his heart. However, a cold wind blew through his not very strong upper body, and he decided to let him get dressed first.
Yi Mu took a small hoe and began to squat down to tidy up the land, and after leveling it, Yi Mu began to sow his own seeds according to the law of seed germination in other fields. Then it's time to lift the water and start watering the amount of water according to your own conscious approval. When the sun was about to set, Yi Mu had successfully sown half of the farmland that had been hoeed.
Back home, Yi Mu was already very sleepy and tired, and under the care of Aunt Teucer, Yi Mu ate a richer dinner. After washing the sweat stains on his body, Yi Mu fell asleep, perhaps because he was too tired, and slept very sweetly.
Early the next morning, Yi Mu got up early, brought the breakfast prepared by Aunt Tok, and went to his farmland, preparing for a new day's work. For a teenager who has been abandoned for a year, large-scale labor is undoubtedly a huge challenge, yesterday's day's work has caused Yi Mu's body to be greatly consumed, and once again persisted, the efficiency couldn't help but decrease.
Yi Mu watched the fall of a layer of old skin in his palm, and the pink flesh was exposed to the air, and his mouth grinned in pain, and he hurriedly soaked it with water. Then it was wrapped in a thick strip of cloth and wrapped up. As early as yesterday, Yi Mu's hands had blisters, but after a night, Yi Mu found that the original wound was almost completely healed. (For the sake of the peculiarity of this world, plus the affinity element.) But another labor touched the old disease, and eventually the old skin fell off.
Looking at the dismal results of the morning, Yi Mu sat in the grove and swallowed the wheat rolls a little helplessly.
At this time, the second uncle suddenly appeared and sat next to Yi Mu.
"Did you plant some seeds?" The second uncle asked.
"Well, I'm afraid that I don't have enough time, so I can plant as much as I can." Yi Mu replied honestly.
"Remember to water a newly planted seed repeatedly until it sprouts. Once a day, the amount of water should not be less than two servings each time," the second uncle admonished.
"Understood." Yi Mu replied.
After admonishing the latter point, the second uncle left and walked out of the village.
Yi Mu looked at the back of the second uncle leaving, and thought in his heart: "Although I want to support myself, if the idle words of the earth power seem to be a bit wasteful, should I ask the second uncle for help?" ”
Thinking of this, Yi Mu began to review his memory. From the scattered messages fed back to Yi Mu from his memory, Yi Mu found that his second uncle's original name was Benson Estu, who had been wandering around the field and knew that he had only returned to his hometown three years ago. However, he rarely interacted with his family, and all the news about him was told by people in some villages. He rarely cares about the big and small things in the village, like a dispensable person in the village. Rumor has it that something happened to him outside, but there is no exact word for what happened. From his memory, Yi Mu knew that the second uncle was already the only immediate family member in his village. What made Yi Mu feel strange was that the second uncle he had seen recently was not a person who had made a difference as he remembered.
What Yi Mu didn't know was that the change in the second uncle only started after the death of his parents.
"Maybe the second uncle has some secrets of his own." Yi Mu thought secretly in his heart.
Thinking of the huge task of watering, Yi Mu gritted his teeth and went to the farmland to continue fighting. Another evening, Yi Mu checked the day's results, and had cultivated nearly half of the entire farmland. The farmland planted with seeds has also been divided into four or five points.
Looking at the cloudless dark sky, Yi Mu innocently said to the treated farmland: "Seeds, seeds, sprout quickly, let the rainy season come later." ”
