Back to the village

The seed shop in Huangliu Town was easy to find, and Liu Susu and the three of them quickly found one. The seed shop isn't too big, but it has everything you need.

The three of them have a little knowledge of vegetable seeds, but they are not very proficient. Naturally, I asked the store to recommend some seasonal vegetables, and Liu Susu also bought some chili seeds. In fact, there are people in the county town who grow this pepper, but it is probably because they are used as a viewing object. Later, a Confucian who returned from traveling in other countries said that this chili pepper was also an edible thing, and the people of Daqi gradually planted it.

"There aren't many people in our village who make chili peppers, will she milk her then?" Liu Manman is still a little worried.

"Don't worry, when the pepper comes out, she won't say anything." Liu Susu didn't shoot what the Jiang family would say at that time, after all, it was he who proposed to open the vegetable field, and I believe that the Jiang family would not trouble himself because of this small pepper seed at that time.

Liu Manman saw that Liu Susu swore and didn't say anything anymore, but Liu Tiandong on the side was a little eager to try. "Second sister, can you also buy me a few pennies of seeds?"

"What do you want seeds for?" Liu Susu asked in a low voice.

"I want to plant too." Liu Tiandong was a little embarrassed, after all, these seeds cost money to buy, and it was already extremely capricious to let the second sister buy them for herself.

"We Dong Ge'er also want to plant? But it's okay, but the second sister just doesn't know if you can insist on taking care of the little cabbage seedlings when the time comes? Liu Susu deliberately teased Liu Tiandong.

Liu Tiandong patted his little chest, "I'm sure I can, second sister, you can buy me some." ”

Liu Susu also intends to cultivate Liu Tiandong's hands-on ability, so naturally he will not be too embarrassed by Liu Tiandong. "Alright then, go ask the shopkeeper to see what seeds there are!"

As soon as Liu Tiandong got Liu Susu's hand, he happily went to inquire with the shopkeeper. Liu Manman on the side shook his head, "Su Su, you said that you can buy some pepper seeds, why do you let Brother Dong follow and mess around?" ”

"Sister, don't worry. It's not a big deal that Brother Dong is willing to grow some vegetables with us, not to mention that Brother Dong will be enlightened next year. At that time, you think Brother Dong is getting these things, but I'm afraid he won't have time. Liu Susu persuaded.

"Forget it, you just get used to him!" Manman's love for Brother Dong in her heart is not less than that of Liu Susu, but because she is the eldest sister, she naturally rules her younger siblings on weekdays, and Liu Tiandong will do it here.

At this time, Liu Tiandong had already picked the seeds from the boss, and Liu Susu said to him: "Brother Dong is not here to thank the big sister, I don't want to ask the big sister for help when I go back." ”

Liu Susu didn't say that Liu Manman had agreed to Liu Tiandong's purchase of vegetable seeds, but she also knew that Liu Tiandong was very smart and clever, and as soon as she said this, he would know that Liu Manman had actually agreed.

Sure enough, Liu Tiandong had already pounced into Liu Manman's arms, "Thank you, eldest sister, I will definitely plant these seeds seriously when I go back." There was already some excitement in his tone.

The shopkeeper of the seeds, because Liu Susu and the three of them bought a lot of vegetable seeds at one time, although the price was not less, but they gave two other seeds, namely: cabbage and spinach seeds. In the end, Liu Susu and the three of them spent a total of nearly fifty yuan to buy these seeds. This is not much different from the silver money that the Jiang family gave them before going out.

Only now can it be regarded as having done all the things to be done in the town, and the three of them came to the big willow tree on West Street as agreed with Li Hujun as agreed.

Li Hujun was also waiting for the three of them under the willow tree early, and when he saw that the three of them finally came, his worries were swept away, "Why did it take so long to come?" Aren't you going to sell some embroidery? Did you run into any trouble? ”

"I didn't encounter any trouble, but I was delayed a little time in the embroidery workshop, I'm sorry to keep you waiting, Uncle Li." Of course, Liu Susu would not tell Li Hujun about his cooperation with Zhang Wei in Qihuanglou.

"It's good that nothing happens, just get in the car. We're going to have to go back before the sun goes down. Li Hujun heard Liu Susu say that there was nothing wrong, so naturally he didn't ask again.

"Okay, listen to Uncle Li." The three of them got into the ox cart again and rushed all the way back to Siyingzi Village.

After saying goodbye to Li Hujun at the entrance of the village, the three of them carried their things and walked towards Liu's house, but along the way, many villagers were greeting Liu Susu and the three.

"Girl Man, where have you sisters and brothers gone?" This is Aunt Li at the head of the village.

"What's going on here? Did you go to town? "This is Li Gouwa's grandmother.

"No, I just went to town and bought some vegetable seeds." Liu Susu said obediently.

"What? Do you still want to open a vegetable field? "Aunt Li is a little surprised, since the old man Liu is gone, where has anyone opened anything?

Liu Susu smiled shyly: "Well, it's our sister and brother who discussed with my grandmother to open a vegetable plot and try it." ”

"What are you kids tossing around, isn't your food enough for you to eat?" Li Gouwa's grandmother, this is a gossip problem, and she has committed it again.

"How can it not be enough, but we are a few of us children playing around, and we can't take it seriously. We didn't buy much of this seed. Liu Susu said and stretched the basket in front of several adults.

When the women saw that there were not many seeds in the basket, they did not ask any more questions.

"Let's go home first, those aunts." Liu Susu didn't waste time anymore, they didn't go home at noon, it must have been Xu's cooking, and now they went back to help Xu's cook.

"Sister, wait a while, you go back to our house first and put your cloth away, and I'll go to the milk house with Brother Dong." Liu Susu didn't dare to let the rest of the Liu family know that Liu Manman's embroidery was sold for money and bought other new cloths back, so he had to arrange it like this.

Liu Manman nodded, "Okay, you go with Brother Dong, I'll go back to the house first." When I cleaned up, I went to help my mother cook. ”

Liu Susu led Brother Dong into the Jiang family's house, took the seeds to the Jiang family and said, "Milk, this is the seed we bought in the town, you always take a look?" ”

Jiang didn't say anything, he really picked up the seed and looked at it. "Yes, this kind of seed is very full, and it should be able to grow some vegetables. Have you chosen the land you have cleared? ”

"Selected. It's right next to the river at the head of the village, so it's close to the water, and it's easy to water when it's close. Liu Susu told the Jiang family about the land he chose to open up the wasteland.

When the Jiang family heard about the land chosen by Liu Susu, they felt that it was not bad. Then he nodded and said, "I still went to that area with your grandfather in the past few years." Your lord also said that the land is very good, and since you have chosen it, you must plant it well. ”
