Chapter 244: The Beginning of Spring
readx;??? The three of them went home. Lian Che was still excited on the way to the www.biquge.info, and his eyes were shining and chattering with Lian Fangzhou, Lian Fangzhou listened with a smile, and inevitably taught him some words.
On the tenth day of the first lunar month, all the doors and windows on the other side of the compound were installed.
Seeing it, the weather is getting warmer day by day.
Although the north wind is still blowing, although the temperature of the sun is still not high, and although there is still no new green in sight, there is no longer that biting cold, but it makes people feel the publicity and vitality of the new vitality that is brewing and about to break out.
The footsteps of spring are already very close, and the eyes have never seen it, but the feeling is not deceiving. The farmer was busy.
No matter whether last year's harvest was good or bad, and the new year was full of hope, every household was full of energy and energy, striving for a bumper harvest year.
Even the Fangzhou Project, the land of Shiping and Sanchakou should be sorted out.
First he hired twelve oxen and two of his own heads and ploughed all the land.
The land had just been cleared a few years ago, so it was much easier and faster to plow the land this time, and it took less than two days to do so.
After being soaked in snow and burned wasteland, a lot of grass and wood ash were mixed in the ground, so the soil was very fertile. Qin Feng and Su Ziji saw it, and they both said that it was a very good place, and even Fang Zhou thought so.
In order to minimize the disaster of weeds in spring, Lian Fangzhou asked Qin Feng and Su Ziji to go to the pharmacy to buy a lot of Tripterygium wilfordii and buy a lot of quicklime in the market. Tripterygium wilfordii soaked in water, quicklime is directly dried, and it is used to sprinkle in the ground to kill weed seeds and insect eggs.
Weeds are extremely vigorous, although burning the wasteland can also burn some of them, and then carefully tidying up the land and destroying most of the roots that are stumbling, but after all, this is a new land that has never been cultivated, if you don't do a few more times in advance, you will plant cotton in the future, and the weeding alone will be tiring to death.
This year, the weather is extremely cold, and there is a heavy snowfall, and Lian Fangzhou has felt very lucky.
Lian Fangzhou explained and described it with Su Ziji, and Su Ziji made a sprayer after some tossing and improvement. It is very easy to use with light tin skin for the body, brass for the nozzle, and cowhide for the hose.
After the thing was done, Lian Fangzhou and Su Ziji admired each other. Lian Fangzhou completely believed in his ingenuity and ingenuity, while Su Ziji was amazed by her whimsy, and asked her with great interest what other wonderful things she wanted to make by herself?
Lian Fangzhou said with a smile: "After a while, I will buy two spinning wheels and looms, you can study and ponder carefully, and there will naturally be more important things to do in the future!" ”
Su Ziji smiled happily and agreed.
It was enough for Qin Feng and Su Ziji to lead eleven subordinates to do it, and even Fangzhou did not invite anyone more.
The fruit tree saplings on Xiaohuaguo Mountain are about to start transplanting.
At this time, transplant down, and wait for the spring breeze and spring rain to arrive, the seedlings will quickly set the roots, sprouts, if you wait until the sprouts and then transplant, it is not as good as now.
The stumps that had been planted earlier could already be seen with buds covered in gray skins popping up, and when a spring breeze blows, these buds will emerge a little green overnight.
The first to be transplanted were the more than 2,000 persimmon saplings brought back by the gardeners in the city.
Lian Fangzhou, Lian Ze, and A Jian drove the donkey cart to pull back all the saplings, and their four sisters and sisters, A Jian all went into battle, as well as Zhang Xiaojun and Zhang Liang, Zhang Xiuer, Sun Changxing, and invited Aunt Zhang, Uncle Li and Li Sanhe, and it took almost three days to plant them all.
Because the tree pits were dug beforehand, it saved a lot of trouble.
Sun looked at this large area of fruit trees and said to Lian Fangzhou with a smile: "Miss Lian, there is a big open space around the house on the top of our mountain, do you want to plant some bamboo?" At this time, if you plant it, you will be able to eat bamboo shoots in more than three months! ”
Lian Fangzhou said with a smile: "You reminded me that I should plant some bamboo, but the open space around the house cannot be planted, and that open space is to build a house." Plant a few trees on the edge! ”
It's good to imagine the future of green bamboo and cool breeze.
Lian Fangzhou took the Sun family up to the top of the mountain, pointed out a few places to plant, and said with a smile: "Just plant Nanzhu, the bamboo grows tall, and the bamboo shoots taste good!" ”
"Okay!" Sun smiled: "Don't worry, girl, we will dig it up and plant it in the past two days!" ”
In a blink of an eye, it is the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, and there is a lantern festival in the city every year, but almost no one in the countryside will think about seeing this excitement.
It's so far from home, how can I go home after watching the lanterns?
To celebrate this festival is to eat glutinous rice balls.
Early in the morning, the third aunt and grandmother asked Ah Jian to help grind the flour and prepare to make rice balls. Because the compound also had to send some over, even Fangzhou was afraid that Ah Jian would be tired, so he originally planned to go to the city to buy rice noodles. Ah Jian smiled and said that it was okay, and it was easy to grind all the rice noodles needed in less than an hour.
A total of several kinds of fillings were adjusted, red bean paste, sesame sugar, peanut foam sugar, osmanthus sugar, and each of them was made better.
After this day, it is officially over the New Year and has entered the busy spring ploughing.
On the sixteenth, after breakfast, Lian Fangzhou, Ah Jian, and Lian Ze went to the Lin family's orchard to move fruit saplings. Nearly 2,000 fruit trees of all kinds should be planted there.
When Lian Fangqing heard that she was going there, she was clamoring to play with Lin Zao'er, and Lian Fangzhou simply took her and Lian Che with her.
More than 2,000 acres of land have been applied with homemade herbicides and insecticides, and Qin Feng and Su Ziji led their subordinates to start renovating the more than 60 acres of paddy fields.
Ploughing the fields, dredging the canals, trimming the fields, picking up dung, and spreading manure are all busy. Those few acres of milk vetch are not ploughed for the time being, and they will have to wait until a while when they are about to be planted, so that the milk vetch has enough time to grow again.
In the surrounding fields, families are busy. From time to time, the shouting of cattle with whips can be heard.
Everyone saw the busy figures of Qin Feng and others, all of them were strong laborers, and they were quick and orderly in their work, and they couldn't help but feel envious and emotional.
"Fangzhou is really good, this life is like a small landlord!"
"No, it's both fields and fields, and there are so many subordinates! Alas, we people are afraid that we will not be able to compare with others in our lives! ”
"Who is calling why there are no good relatives!"
"If you have good relatives, you have to be generous and willing to help!"
"Fangzhou's fate is good, and the sisters and brothers are all well-fated!"
“……”
Everyone was talking and sighing, and they couldn't help but talk about the two of them again, and they all laughed at them for not knowing how to enjoy happiness. If it weren't for being too domineering and cautious at the beginning, the relationship between the two families would have been like this, and now it would be a big light!
But their son was really good. Don't look at it as a scholar, he is not small, and he dared to call people from house to house that night when the wolf came! Alas, how can Lian Hai be the son of such a couple!
These words also reached Lian Liqiao's ears, and some did not, Lian Li sneered, feeling remorseful and aggrieved in his heart, and Qiao's was so angry that he scolded at home, and he didn't dare to find fault with Lian's family again.
