Chapter 73: When to Hold It?

The place where Cheng said is not far, go down the mountain and go down the river, about 20 minutes or so, there is a small diversion to the left of the position of the river to the left, the diversion is about two or three meters and the end is a large piece of flat land, and the flat land is indeed very suitable for making fish ponds.

And it is not far from the tribe, it is a very good choice, and this flat land has been along the mountain down the distance is extremely long, in addition to digging a fish pond at the top, you can also dig a rice field on the flat land below, of course, you must dig a few ditches with water.

"How's it here?" Cheng looked at Mu Xiaohua and asked with a smile.

"Hmm." Mu Xiaohua nodded, "It's really good." The fish pond can probably be dug there, and then you can dig a little bit to dig the field. ”

When I went to Xishan before, I walked down the river for about ten minutes and then crossed the river and walked to the other side, Mu Xiaohua didn't expect to go down the river again to be such a good place.

"It's so wet that someone planted millet and peas a long time ago." Nordaw.

Because of the diversion, this piece of land is wet, and the left side is against the mountain to block the sun, resulting in insufficient sunlight, even if the water flows down there is very little, the land is still not dry enough.

Dry crops here are not good, but they are very suitable for growing rice.

Mu Xiaohua smiled mysteriously and said, "We don't grow millet peas, we can grow something else." ”

"Something else? What? I can't help but ask.

"Let's wait until I go to the mountains and find the seeds!"

Mu Xiaohua doesn't say much about this, the rice in the space is not yet ripe, and now it has passed the season of planting rice, and it will be next year to plant, let's talk about it later!

Optimistic about the land, circle the range, and go back to organize the young and middle-aged people of the tribe at home to dig fish ponds, and the first fish pond is naturally owned by the collective.

Taking advantage of this time, Mu Xiaohua walked down the flat ground, Yu accompanied her, Chan and Lie went home to get a hoe, and if someone took it, Yu didn't go back.

At the end of the flat land is a hill connected to the mountain on the left, the mountain is not high, there are some herbaceous vegetation, Mu Xiaohua went to see the soil quality, and said happily: "It's good to clean up the land here and make vegetables." ”

"Growing vegetables?" Yu asked rhetorically.

The primitive tribe did not have a meal division, and Mu Xiaohua did not explain much, saying: "It is the seeds that we dry at home, eggplants, beans, peppers, and tomatoes." ”

Speaking of the tender eggplant, there are still two tomatoes left, and the others have been eaten as fruits, but this morning I looked at the eggplant and tomatoes for two or three days, and they are still quite fresh.

It didn't take long for Cheng to bring the people of the tribe to dig the fish pond, the fish pond did not need to dig too deep, it was almost the same to dig more than one meter down, block the diversion, and everyone began to do it.

Digging and digging, suddenly someone screamed.

"What's wrong?" Someone cares about asking.

"I didn't know what slippery my foot had just touched." The man patted his chest with palpitations.

Slippery stuff? Mu Xiaohua, who was supervising the work on the shore, listened and asked, "What kind of?" ”

"I don't know, I didn't see it when I slipped past my feet."

"Ahh Snakes, there are snakes. Suddenly, another man screamed and ran to the shore.

When the others heard this, they also retreated to the shore, there are snakes, how can this be dug up? It's too dangerous.

Everyone stood on the shore and looked at the embryonic fish pond, not knowing what to do.

"Acceptance, what should I do now? Do you still keep digging? Someone asked.

Cheng frowned and groaned, the fish pond has been dug so much, it would be a pity to give up suddenly, but everyone's safety is more important in comparison, so he said: "Forget it, let's not dig it now!" He turned his head to look at Mu Xiaohua and asked, "What do you think, Xiaohua?" ”

Mu Xiaohua frowned and groaned, if there is a snake underground, you should see the snake hole from the surface, right? Now digging so deep to find out? And such an environment does not seem to be suitable for snakes to survive.

Was it really a snake that I just encountered? Mu Xiaohua couldn't help but suspect that because the ground itself was wet, the more water was dug up, the more water was dug up, although the canal was dug to open the water, but now there was still water in the ground, and the water was turbid and he couldn't see the situation clearly.

"Dig a bigger aqueduct and wait until the water is dry."

"You can wait for the water to dry, sprinkle snake repellent on it, and dig again the next day." Yu Dao.

"Hmm." Cheng nodded, everyone thought it was good, dig the canal bigger, and then plug the diversion well, and everyone went back.

It was almost noon, and I just went back for lunch, and I made an appointment to go to the fish pond in the afternoon, and everyone separated and went home.

In the afternoon, Mu Xiaohua went to the fish pond with Yu and Cheng with snake repellent medicine.

Mu Xiaohua looked at the ground where there was no water, only mud, and muttered, "I'll go down and take a look." ”

"What are you looking at?" Yu grabbed her.

"I think it might not be a snake, it's something else, I'll see if I can see any holes, dig and dig to see what the bottom is."

"No, what if it's a snake?"

"I'm not afraid."

"You're not afraid, I'm afraid." Yu's tone was a little stern.

Mu Xiaohua frowned: "In case it's a snake, I won't let it have a chance to crawl towards you." ”

"I'm not afraid of snakes, I'm afraid of you." Yu looked at Mu Xiaohua helplessly.

Mu Xiaohua looked at Yu in a daze, pursed her lips and said, "It's okay, don't worry." ”

"How to dig, I'll dig." Yu said firmly.

Mu Xiaohua shook her head: "No, you won't." As she spoke, she collapsed into the ground, and was pulled back by Yu, who was already holding her, and circled in her arms.

"What are you doing?" Mu Xiaohua glared at him.

"Don't go." Yu twisted his eyebrows.

Looking at the two people who suddenly hugged each other, Cheng only felt a pain in his eyes, frowned and said, "Don't go, forget it, put the snake repellent medicine." ”

Mu Xiaohua wanted to say something, but Yu preemptively said, "That's it." ”

"Okay!" Mu Xiaohua pouted, but in this case, what was the point of her coming in the afternoon? She actually had a guess and was eager to prove it.

Cheng was about to sprinkle medicine, and glanced at Yu, who was still holding Mu Xiaohua, and said, "When are you going to hold it?" ”

Yu found out about his posture with Mu Xiaohua, and hurriedly let go of her, just now he was just in a hurry, and he didn't pay so much attention, but now he was reminded by Chengyi, and he was suddenly embarrassed.

Mu Xiaohua looked at Yu, who was so shy that she blushed, and rolled her eyes, wasn't she quite strong when she hugged her? Actually shy now? I'm the one to be shy, right?

Yu only felt that his heart was beating fast, and he didn't dare to look at Mu Xiaohua, so he walked to Cheng's side and said, "Hurry up and sprinkle the medicinal powder!" ”

Cheng smiled, and teased while giving Yu a packet of medicinal powder: "Wow, isn't it?" Why is your face so red? It's been so long with Xiaohua and you're still shy to hug it? Didn't you sleep together last night? ”

That's too much ambiguity, isn't it? Yu's face turned even redder, ignored Cheng, glanced at Mu Xiaohua quickly, and sprinkled the powder.

Mu Xiaohua twitched her eyebrows and feet, and said horizontally: "There is so much nonsense, can you hurry up and work?" ”

Cheng smiled and nodded, "Okay, work." ”

Today, I sprinkled the snake repellent powder, and it stands to reason that there will never be any more snakes in this field tomorrow, but when everyone comes back the next day to continue digging......
