At the end of May, Sun Siyuan's green millet and soybeans were harvested, and Zhao Youqian did these things very smoothly, and Sun Siyuan did not need to go to the field, Sun Siyuan studied wool spinning at home.

The wool was exchanged for chickens and the widow's family in the north of the village, and she raised a dozen sheep and sold some sheep every year for money. When it's hot, she will also shear sheep, and Sun Siyuan uses the hen she is producing to exchange for wool with her, and she is naturally willing. Although it was not June or July, it was not too cold.

There are no sweaters in this world, and Sun Siyuan has never done these things herself, everything is done according to what the book says.

There are a lot of wool impurities, and they are also a little dirty, and Sun Siyuan washed it seven times before washing the water. Spread the wool flat and air dry slowly.

There was no wool carding machine, so Sun Siyuan made a comb with his own hands. When the wool is dry, weigh it, and when it comes to twenty catties of wool, there will be ten catties left after washing and drying. Sun Siyuan combed her hair over and over again, until she felt that it was fluffy to the maximum, and began to spin the thread with a spinning wheel.

Most of the people in the village have spinning wheels, spinning some cotton threads during the cotton harvest, and not every family has a loom, but Gu Daniang's family has one. Gu Damiang's family didn't bring it when she left, Sun Siyuan paid for it, Gu Damiang's family didn't even plant the land, it was useless to keep these, and sold them to Sun Siyuan at a low price. Sun Siyuan doesn't know how to use a loom, it's purely to add large items to the family!

Stumbling and spinning the thread, she was ready to knit a sweater.

When Sun Siyuan was in college, she also used to learn from the girls in the dormitory and knit scarves for others. She liked a classmate in the class at the time, so she bought a stitch of wool knitting, because she was not skilled, her fingers that often poked were red, but unfortunately, the scarf could not be sent out in the end.

At that time, the knitting needles were given away when they bought wool, but now they are made by herself.

If you want a metal knitting needle, you have to find a blacksmith, Sun Siyuan was annoyed, so she simply cut the wood and carved it slowly with a household knife. Without the complete tools of a carpenter, it takes a lot of effort to rely on a knife alone. Fortunately, her life was boring, and it was a pastime.

It took a few days to get five knitting needles of satisfactory length and thickness, which were still too rough to use. Zhao Youqian saw that she kept puffing out her mouth, so he asked her what was wrong, and after she talked to Zhao Youqian, Zhao Youqian asked Uncle Mu for the most commonly used rough paper in the carpenter shop, which has the same function as sandpaper, which is used to polish wood.

After eating in the evening and lighting the lamp, Zhao Youqian held the knitting needle in the rough paper, polished it back and forth, and polished the knitting needle round and smooth. Looking at Zhao Youqian's serious face, the more Sun Siyuan looked, the more he felt, this man is so handsome, I'm going to fall in love with him!

The crops in the field have been harvested, six acres of rice have been planted, and the seedlings raised in advance will grow well to catch up with the August tax. There are still four acres of land, Sun Siyuan didn't let it be planted, she already planned what she wanted to plant.

Because the rural farming land is kept by their own families, most of the vegetables and fruit seeds are available in the village, and there is no special seed store in the town, only the grocery store will help bring some seeds that farmers need.

Last year, Sun Siyuan heard that there is a kind of "flower melon" in the south, red soil and sunspots, which are very cool and relieve the heat in the hot season, but they are small and easy to break, and none of the merchants have shipped them here to sell. People here have also planted it, but if it doesn't grow, they give up.

Think about what this "flower melon" is? Isn't it just watermelon? When I first heard the description of "Huagua" by others, Sun Siyuan was still flustered for a long time, why was she so familiar?

In the summer, take out the cool green watermelon from the well, after cutting it, the red soil and sunspots, one person takes a piece, the whole family eats together, laughter and laughter rise among adults and children, this is one of the most beautiful memories of Sun Siyuan's childhood summer.

The names of many things in this world are different from those in China, such as this watermelon called flower melon, and the common melon in the hot season here is called cucumber; And hanging on the shelves, those green long fruits called cucumbers in China are called green melons; The most unacceptable thing for Sun Siyuan is tomatoes, which are called red melons in this world!

In the hot season, look at the vegetable gardens of the people in the village, it is really colorful and colorful!

Sun Siyuan had greeted the owner of the grocery store early in the morning, and if she had the chance, she would bring her some melon seeds, and now there is finally news.

A family in the village helped bring the news, saying that the melon seeds had arrived, about 1,000 seeds, and asked Sun Siyuan to go to the grocery store with 200 yuan to get them.

Five seeds cost a penny, this price is a bit high, but Sun Siyuan only plans to buy it this time, two hundred yuan is nothing. Explain the matter to Zhao Youqian, he rode Xiaobai, and it didn't take much effort to run back and forth to the town.

When the seeds arrived, Sun Siyuan did not rush to plant them, but selected the best dozens of seeds, threw them in the space, and spent a night cultivating a batch of improved seeds. They also soaked the seeds in spiritual spring water to promote germination, and then planted them in the ground.

The flower melon was planted on two acres of land, with a total of more than 1,000 eyes, and Sun Siyuan thought of the flower melon she secretly gnawed in the space, which was really thirsty. No, the thought of harvesting a large melon in one place makes my saliva water......

For the remaining two acres of land, Sun Siyuan exchanged some cotton seeds from other people's homes and planted them, just waiting for the harvest to add some new bedding and cotton clothes.

Sun Siyuan knits sweaters very slowly, the weather is hot, she is often tired, and she really can't wait to hide in the space to sleep. Thinking about it in my heart, I was not in a hurry to wear the sweater, so I became more and more lazy.

In June, he only hid in the house, and he felt hot and panicked, Zhao Youqian ran out from time to time, and Sun Siyuan was not happy to care about him. She herself wanted to make some saltpeter to make ice according to what the book said, but unfortunately the gunpowder in this world has not been developed, so she can't buy such things as saltpeter. Sun Siyuan naturally wouldn't study saltpeter for the sake of this coolness.

The weather is hot, and the chicken coop is even more troublesome, and mosquitoes and flies are coming out. Sun Siyuan, the flies and mosquitoes, couldn't stop it, so she could only let the Shu family prepare some medicine by herself and repel mosquitoes at night to sleep. As for the chickens, they really can't manage so much, the weather is hot, and the eggs are easy to spoil, but now the egg production in the chicken coop is only increasing, Sun Siyuan decisively decided to dispose of a batch of eggs every few days.

The egg market is saturated, and she is not here to make money on eggs, so there is no need to engage in any "small profits but quick turnover" to seize the share of ordinary farmers. After all, there are not many chickens in every household, and those who take out the eggs and sell them are reluctant to eat them, so they expect to sell them for money!

Every time she saw the Shu brothers digging holes and burying eggs, the sister-in-law was very distressed, she didn't understand what the market was, she just felt that Sun Siyuan was really a waste of food!

Sun Siyuan, the taste restaurant in the town, also went to see it occasionally, everything was working normally, and she couldn't help much. It's hot, there are few people in the taste hall, and a few people are in order, so she can't get involved.

paid the salary, accepted the dividends, and handed over the mandatory share of Miao to Marne, there was really nothing to do with Sun Siyuan, so she went back to the village.
