Yang Yun sighed and took Yang Xuan to the former wasteland of the Yang family, and when he arrived at the wasteland, he saw that the land was bare, and there was no farming in the field after the autumn harvest. There was no one in the wasteland, Yang Yun squatted on the ground and grabbed the soil and looked at it, the soil quality of this place can only be regarded as average, of course, it is much better than the ordinary land that has just been cleared, but planting sweet potatoes or corn, the yield of crops produced by such geology is not very good, in a word, there is less fertilizer, and this land is too thin.
It is difficult to produce grain to raise people in Zhoujia Village, not to mention the land to grow grain to raise pigs, without raising pigs, there will be less organic fertilizer, and the land will not be fattened, which will cause a vicious circle, the more the land is planted, the thinner and thinner, the yield is getting worse and worse, and people are becoming more and more underfed.
Yang Yun looked at the wasteland and shook her head while sighing.
"Sister, what's wrong with you, you grabbed a handful of dirt on the ground, and then kept sighing and shaking your head, but you were sad about selling the land, Xiao Xuan used to know that our family was also sad after selling it, and then I thought about selling the land to save my grandmother, and Xiao Xuan was not so sad." Yang Xuan's intimate comfort made Yang Yun feel very warm, and our Xiaoxuan is also a warm man.
"My sister is not sad because of the sale of land, but because she thinks that the geology is not good, even if you grow food, you can't have a good yield."
"Sister, how do you know if this land can still have a good yield, isn't the land all planted directly with seeds and it will grow food on its own?"
"Huh! Yes, the ground is planted with seeds and it grows food by itself, and our Xiaoxuan also knows that seeds can grow food. In addition to planting seeds, the ground also needs to be watered, weeded, pesticide and fertilized, so the farmers and uncles are very hard, and if they want to have a harvest, they have to pay labor, and there are no benefits in this world. Xiao Xuan has to keep this in mind. ”
"No wonder our father used to work in the fields, and one day of work was a day, so many things had to be done, Xiao Xuan now understands." Who said that five-year-olds are small, but in fact they understand a lot of things.
Yang Yun took a turn in the wasteland group and saw that the wasteland of other villagers was also not good geology, and there was a lack of fertilizer, not to mention that there were few pigs and few chickens in Zhoujia Village, even if there were, a few hens could lay eggs and subsidize the family. After seeing the land in Zhoujia Village, Yang Yun was very disappointed, and originally thought that whether he opened up wasteland or bought wasteland and came back to grow some food, he could improve the situation at home, but the geology was too thin, and the yield was very disappointing.
Yang Yun took Yang Xuan home sullenly, and when she returned home, she saw that her grandmother had finished washing her clothes and was drying clothes in the yard.
"Grandma, why did you wash the clothes, Xiao Yun still wants to come back and wash the clothes."
"You're tired of going to fetch firewood early in the morning, and you're not tired of washing clothes, grandma has washed everything."
"Grandma, let's catch a few chickens to raise, there are still many months before the New Year, and you can eat chicken until the New Year."
"Okay, it's just that we don't have food at home to feed the chickens."
"Grandma will go buy some bran, and then mix some wild vegetables or something, although buying bran is a bit luxurious, but mixed with some wild vegetables, the chickens can't eat much, let's catch more than ten first, and don't plant vegetables behind the house, and then pull some unwanted vegetable leaves to feed." And Yang Yun also thought that you can catch insects or earthworms and feed them, these insects are high in protein and can also increase the production of eggs. Earthworms were first recorded in the "Shennong Baicao Jing", and some people have long used it as medicine.
"Then you tell your grandfather to go, there is a market tomorrow, your grandfather is going to the market to sell bamboo mats, and let your grandfather buy some chicks by the way." Grandpa returned to his old business and made bamboo mats and sold bamboo mats.
"Well, Xiao Yun will tell grandpa when grandpa comes back." Grandpa went to cut bamboo and hasn't come back yet. Yang Yun went back to the room after talking to her grandmother, and re-sewed the cloth she bought during the Mid-Autumn Festival, the fabric grandma was cut according to the size of the family, Yang Yun only needed to sew the edges, grandma's eyes were not very good since she was sick last time, and she built a house some time ago, and she had no time to make clothes.
Yang Yun also asked her grandmother to cut two pieces of clothes according to the appearance of a modern sleeveless horse clip, and helped her grandfather and grandmother make one each, so that it is convenient to wear and do things, the temperature difference between morning and evening in autumn is large, and it is very hot at noon, so you can keep warm in the morning and evening, and you can take it off directly if it is too hot at noon, and you don't need to take off your coat.
Yang Xuan saw that Yang Yun had returned to the room to make clothes, so he went to Yang Yong's room to play with Yang Yong.
"Xiao Xuan, what's wrong with your sister, she looks sullen when she comes back from a trip with you." Yang Yong sat at the door of the room, and he saw Yang Yun's unhappy appearance when he entered the door just now. Seeing Yang Xuan running to his room, he asked about Yang Xuan.
"Xiao Xuan didn't know, my sister took Xiao Xuan to see our family's previous land, my sister also grabbed the soil in the field and looked at it, and then sighed and shook her head, and then I heard my sister say that the ground is too thin and the geology is not good, and the grain production is not good, so my sister is not happy, Xiao Xuan didn't understand what my sister meant, and then my sister took Xiao Xuan around the wasteland group and came back. My sister has been very unhappy on the road. ”
"I see, I thought you two went outside to bully people."
"Where does anyone dare to bully my sister now, brother, you don't know that my sister is sometimes fierce, last time at the door of the landlord of Zhou, my sister also smashed the Zhou mother-in-law with a big stone, and scared the Zhou mother-in-law so much that she screamed for help." When Yang Yong heard this, tears flashed in his eyes instantly, he didn't expect his sister to smash Mrs. Zhou with a stone for him, regardless of her reputation, and her sister would sacrifice to such a point in order to save him from the Zhou family. Yang Yong's heart felt distressed for Yang Yun's dedication. After waiting for a while, his mood calmed down and asked Yang Xuan again.
"That Xiao Xuan is afraid of my sister.
"Xiao Xuan won't, my sister is good to Xiao Xuan, and she hasn't been fierce to Xiao Xuan, my sister said that you can't be soft on bad people, if you are too honest, you will only be bullied."
"No, my brother is the best example, he is too honest to be bullied by Mrs. Zhou and Old Man Zhou." Yang Yong thought of his days in the Zhou family, he was too honest, so he was repeatedly bullied by Mrs. Zhou and Old Man Zhou, and all the snacks and money sent by his sister for the first time were snatched away by their husband and wife. At this moment, Yang Yong was extremely angry with himself.
"Brother, don't be afraid, Xiao Xuan will keep his brother in the future." Yang Xuan looked at Yang Yong's somewhat sad appearance and comforted him.
"Okay, my brother will let Xiao Xuan protect him in the future." Yang Xuan's intimacy moved Yang Yong very much. And Yang Xuan heard that his brother was willing to let him protect, he felt a special sense of accomplishment, his head was raised high, his chest was straight, and his proud little appearance made people want to laugh when they saw it, if Yang Yun saw it, he would definitely say where this little rascal came from.
