Chapter 18: The Seed of the Spirit Dew
Early in the morning, Gu Xinyu got up early, dragged Wangcai out of the nest, and went to the greenhouse with Chunmei after breakfast.
Xiao Tao was processing the charcoal ash in the charcoal basin in the greenhouse, and when he saw Gu Xinyu coming in, he greeted happily: "The big girl is here." ”
Without waiting for Gu Xinyu to speak, Chunmei, who was fast-talking, jumped in front of Xiao Tao in a few steps. He shook his hand with a smile: "And me, Brother Xiaotao." ”
Xiao Tao smiled innocently and instructed Chunmei to remove the charcoal ash from the charcoal basin together.
Gu Xinyu looked at the seeds on the shelf, they were full and sprouted. This Linglu is such a good baby!
There was a piece of leeks in the east, and when the greenhouse was built, Gu Xinyu directly circled this leek field and sprinkled some remaining spiritual dew, in order to keep the growth progress of these vegetables consistent!
Xiao Tao and Uncle Wang have leveled the other land in the greenhouse, according to Gu Xinyu's plan, they will plant all kinds of vegetable seeds in different categories, and the ridge width is also according to Gu Xinyu's standard, how many centimeters are a pit at a distance, put a few seeds in the pit, Gu Xinyu explained to the two of them one by one, Xiao Tao and Chunmei listened carefully, and after they were all written down, several people began to sow seeds.
It is often said that it is easy to see flowers and difficult to embroider, and the same is true for planting, it looks very simple, just put the seeds in the pit, then water some water, and bury them, but when you repeat hundreds or thousands of the same actions, you will be so tired that you want to lie on the ground.
Xiao Tao is a young man, this little work is not a matter for him, Gu Xinyu and Chunmei are so tired that they can't lift their waists, Gu Xinyu gritted his teeth and planted the remaining seeds in front of him, and he didn't want to get up, but looking at the flat and fertile black soil in front of him, he was also very proud in his heart.
The black land is pregnant with seeds of hope, Gu Xinyu believes that with Linglu, these seeds will definitely take root and sprout soon, and then apply fertilizer again in the early stage, and after careful waiting, it is estimated that after two months, when the vegetables in other farms are still in the seedling stage, their own vegetables can be marketed!
The more Gu Xinyu thought about it, the more beautiful it became, and he straightened up from the ground and slowly walked out of the conservatory.
Standing at the door of the conservatory, it was almost noon at this time, and I saw Uncle Wang standing in front of the house where the hired workers lived not far away, and Gu Xinyu walked over with Wangcai.
Uncle Wang hurriedly greeted him: "Big girl, you can't buy green bricks now, and you can't make a kang." ”
Although Uncle Wang didn't understand too much what the eldest girl was talking about, he could roughly imagine that it should be a very hot bed!
Gu Xinyu took a closer look: "Uncle Wang, then build a row of big beds in the bedroom, the kind that is connected together, use the whole wood, and when you make the kang in the future, you can remove it and do something else, go buy some cotton tomorrow, Chunmei and I will make quilts for them, insist on it for two months, and it will be hot, and the stove next to it can be used for repair." ”
Uncle Wang responded one by one, and led Gu Xinyu to see the newly bought ploughing cattle, the cowshed was left from before, it was very dilapidated, Uncle Wang simply cleaned it up, but it was okay.
Gu Xinyu looked curiously at the two old cows with shiny coats, with hard horns on their heads, looking very scary, Gu Xinyu gave up the idea of touching them, and at this time he was hungry, Chunmei and Xiaotao on the side of the greenhouse also did the finishing work, closed the door of the greenhouse, and several people entered the main courtyard.
Uncle Wang and Xiao Tao put the prepared food into wooden barrels, walked out of the courtyard and carefully closed the door.
Mama Wang made a big bone noodle soup for lunch, with shredded meat in a pot, with poached eggs in it, and the side dishes were cabbage and fungus, poured red pepper shreds and green garlic seedlings on top, which smelled fragrant and tasted even more fragrant, the garlic seedlings were raised by Gu Xinyu a few days ago with the remaining spiritual dew in the greenhouse, and only used more than 20 heads of garlic, and now the wooden trough is already green and ready to eat.
Gu Xinyu chewed the garlic sprouts carefully, and it felt sweet and fragrant.
"Mama, let's eat garlic sprouts and meat buns at night."
Mama Wang smiled and nodded, the eldest girl can do whatever she likes, she wants to raise her white and fat, and when Mrs. comes here, she will be happy.
After eating, Gu Xinyu went back to the house without waiting for Wangcai, and fell asleep, thinking dimly that this body was really delicate.
When the five hired workers came home last night, they told their families that the main family would not let them come back, and that they would live in the village every day and eat three meals a day.
Du Sanlang's family has a total of eight brothers and sisters, one sister is married, the eldest brother and the second brother have become a family, the Du family now has only four wings, the eldest brother and the second brother each have one, he and the two younger brothers are crowded together, and the two younger sisters also live in the smallest room.
The Du family style is good, and the old man and the old lady are also very kind to the younger generation, so such a large family lives together, although there is occasional friction, but it is basically a trivial matter.
It's just that because of the lack of food, the whole family can't eat enough, and the clothes are not warm, especially in this season, there are no wild vegetables, and the food is going to see the bottom, and now I hear that San Lang and his two younger brothers are not eating at home, and the two sisters-in-law are very happy.
These people came to Zhuangzi early, thinking that it would be best to clean up the house one day, so that they would not go home tomorrow.
There is a lot of strength, especially in the case of full strength, it really only took two days to make up for the leakage everywhere, there used to be a stove room here, simply repair it, buy two cauldrons to start the fire, there is a small room next to the stove, just for the cooking mother-in-law to live. Du Saburo worked in the house with the sea and the mountain, and asked Shiro Goro to collect firewood, and there were many of them under the roots of the nearby mountains, and the two boys picked up a large pile of high in the afternoon.
A few people cleaned up the inside and outside of the house, and then went home happily.
Uncle Wang walked around inside and outside the house, and became more and more satisfied with these hard-working and capable young men.
In two days, Gu Xinyu, Mama Wang and Chunmei sewed four quilts, four mattresses, which were all thick cotton, which was hot to the touch, and these people were all fast, especially the simplest quilts.
But even so, several people were tired and had back pain. There are also two sets of which were distributed to Du Sanlang's sisters-in-law, each of whom was given ten cents, and the two sisters-in-law were very happy, because the mother-in-law said that the money could be kept by herself.
The mother-in-law who cooks is Du Sanlang's second aunt, in her forties, no children and no daughters in her life, the second uncle died last year, leaving the second aunt to live alone, and she used to succeed a child from the third uncle's family, but unfortunately a typhoid fever is gone, so the third uncle and the second uncle almost turned against each other.
The second aunt lost her beloved son, and for a while she couldn't think of committing suicide by throwing herself into the river, and was seen by Du Tiezhu, who happened to be passing by, the person was saved, but she never spoke again, and the children in the village called her dumb mother-in-law behind her back, although she was teased, but the second aunt was not annoyed at all, as long as there was something delicious, she kept it for the children of her uncle's family, so Du Sanlang They loved the second aunt very much.
After the death of the second uncle, I wanted to bring people in, but the second aunt didn't want to increase the burden on these families, so I still live alone in the house left by the second uncle.
When Gu Xinyu heard Uncle Wang talk about this Second Aunt Du, he was also embarrassed, a person with a very hard life, although he was a little older, but if he wanted to cook for these young men, no one would come to ordinary women, there were too many things under the main melon field and plum, this Second Aunt Du and Du Sanlang were relatives, and no one would chew the root of the tongue.
The person who had no objection was selected, and asked Uncle Wang to inform her to come early tomorrow morning to familiarize herself with the environment, see what was missing, and buy it.
