Time flies, Daoxiang Valley ushered in the first spring ploughing season, Ai Liang said to the principal: "Let's lead the valley people!" Dig up the sweet potatoes in the field first, and then start plowing and raking the field to prepare for ploughing! ”

Fang Lei said: "Ai is in charge! Then you lead the valley people to work, Ai Liang and I go to the Taohua Town Market, buy the piglets back, and then distribute them to each family to raise, and there will be farm fertilizer in the future! ”

Farming and raising pigs, this is a major event for the farmer's family, Fang Lei has long considered this problem, so when building the farmhouse, it is a single family building form, the front yard is planted with vegetables, the backyard breeds pigs, chickens and ducks, and the manure tank is built behind the house, so that the valley people can pick up manure and pour melons, fruits and vegetables and fertilize the farmland, so that the rice has a greater harvest.

Fang Lei knew that there were more than 60 households and more than 200 people living in Daoxiang Valley, and more than 100 piglets would be purchased according to the calculation of two pigs raised by each household.

He and Ai Liang took the five carriages led by Cai Juan and hurriedly drove towards Taohua Town, and this afternoon the valley people were distributed sweet potatoes and potato seedlings, and there was feed to feed the pigs.

Ai Qing led the valley people to dig sweet potatoes, and they had a good job, this sweet potato belongs to the seedling plant, and the vines and vines crawl all over the ground, everyone first cut off the sweet potato seedlings, stacked them together, and then began to dig potatoes.

Digging sweet potatoes is rough work, and you need to have strength, Ai Qing knows the reason, and specially arranges for young people to dig and older women to clean up.

In the Immortal Medicine Valley, the valley people are the most proficient in planting medicinal herbs, and there are Chinese herbs all over the mountains. I always feel very fresh, too! These crops are potato plants, and they are planted on newly cultivated land, and the soft and airy soil of the black oil is very suitable for the growth of this plant.

When a clump of potato stalks was dug out, everyone shouted loudly "Wow", only to see that under a clump of potato stalks, there were five or six long and big sweet potatoes, which added up to three or four catties, and it was a little difficult for children to lift them.

The most interesting thing is that this clump of potato stalks, each of which produces sweet potatoes is colorful, each is different, there are white skin, yellow skin, and red skin, the potato meat inside, is not the same, red skin and white meat, white skin and yellow meat, yellow skin and red meat, varied, dizzying.

Ai Qing was overjoyed when he saw it, and said: "Our Daoxiang Valley planted crops for the first time, and we had such a big harvest, we really got God's favor!" ”

"There is also the credit of Lord Ai here, if it weren't for you leading the valley people to reclaim the wasteland, what would be today's great harvest?"

Zhang Chi said sincerely that since he was promoted to cashier, he has also honestly managed the current funds in the valley, strictly controlled, resolutely refused to spend what should be spent and should not be spent, the accounts were clear and transparent, and he was self-denying and dedicated, and did not covet a penny of the collective.

Ai Qing said: "I don't think it's anything, in fact, the most meritorious thing should be Ai Liang, this kid, not for him to introduce the experience of the countrymen, and fight the battle of winter ploughing in time, this more than 100 acres of land, isn't it in vain that he has been idle for two autumn and winter seasons?" ”

yes! Farmers should see the seams, rational use of land, in order to maximize economic benefits, in the countryside with more people and less land, some people also engaged in three-dimensional planting! Cucumbers are planted on top of the fence and vegetables are planted under the fence, killing two birds with one stone.

In the afternoon, piles of sweet potatoes and potato seedlings were already placed in the potato field, and Ai took a big wooden scale, and together with Cai Zhengming and Zhang Chi, distributed the sweet potatoes and potatoes to each household according to the population, so that they could enjoy the fruits of their labor for the first time.

After the distribution, Ai said in a timely manner: "Just now Ai Liang instructed that in order to make the valley people have feed for the pigs for many years, everyone will take out the tender green potato seedlings and plant them on the idle land in front of and behind the house, so that there will be no green fodder in the future!" ”

One of the valley residents asked, "Everyone is busy digging sweet potatoes, so do you have time to plant potato seedlings?" ”

Ai said: "We have already discussed, tomorrow we will have a day off and let everyone deal with personal matters, can't we plant potato seedlings?" ”

At the end of the work, the grain people happily carried the sweet potatoes in baskets and happily carried them to their homes, and from now on, the life of this peasant family began to be settled.

In the evening, when the valley people had just picked up all the sweet potatoes they had gotten home, Fang Lei and his party also pulled the piglets back and distributed them in the open space of the valley guards.

I don't know what day it is? Good things are one after another, everyone holds the fat and meaty, three steps and two steps, for fear that if they hold it for a long time, it will scare these cute little babies, as soon as they arrive at home, they will quickly put it into the pigsty that has already been completed, so that they can familiarize themselves with the environment here as soon as possible.

But he said that there is also a small canteen in the valley guard's station, there are five people in the valley mansion, there are five girls in the transportation team, there are six people in the valley guard, sixteen people are all cooking together, a kitchen master, cooking rice and stir-frying, and he has to go up the mountain to pick firewood at noon, which is really busy for him.

With the consent of the teacher, they also bought two piglets, and kept them in the pig pen in the backyard of the valley guard, and the division was responsible for cooking the feed, as for feeding! Whoever has the leisure will be fed, God and earth will be fair.

At this time, more than a dozen young people gathered around the pigpen to watch the excitement, and never got tired of looking at the two little piglets, just like a mother-in-law looking at her son-in-law, the more she looked at it, the more she liked it.

The two fat-headed and big-eared pigs, due to the new environment, used to be seven or eight partners together, frolicking and hissing, bouncing, very active, now there are only two left, facing the living people, looking very restrained, four big eyes, looking at a dozen uninvited guests in horror, has already become a frightened bird, as soon as there is a wind and grass, they will jump over the pig pen and escape.

Cai Juan proposed: "Everyone has a name, let's also give the two little pigs a name, how about it?" ”

"Two little pigs, one bigger and one smaller, are called Big Fat Fat, how about Little Chubby?" Cai Zhengming said.

Zhang Qin immediately objected: "Looking at your cultural level, what good name can you come up with?" Do you want to give them three-character names because they have three names? What if the little piglet catches up with the big piglet? ”

"If you want to speak more and speak without thinking about your brain, it's no wonder that Sister Zhang Qin laughs at you!" Wu Shuyun said.

Don't say that two people are a couple, once a man and a woman talk to each other, it's not a woman helping a woman?

At this time, Fang Lei came over, and Cai Juan immediately said: "Don't be stubborn, let the young valley master give the two little pigs a good name, right?" ”

Fang Lei took a closer look, the coat color of the two little pigs was black and white, the black was black and oily, and the white was also white and shiny and lubricated, without a little color, so he said: "It's called Xiaobai Xiaohei, when it grows into a pig, it is called a white and a black, and when it grows into a big pig, it is called a big white and a big black!" ”

When everyone heard this, they all laughed heartily, and only the young valley master could come up with such a funny name.
