Chapter 84: Planting Melons

"Grandma, what is the oven like?" Yang Liu works in the dim sum factory, all of them are electric ovens, and I have never seen an oven in this period.

"The oven is simple, and Lao Zhao's family has several large ovens." Grandma thought about it like a memory.

Yang Liu started the topic again, talking about the New Year's greetings, and soon in the middle of the night, every family set off firecrackers, and the village was full of cannons.

I think of Xu Qingfeng, Xu Chunhe helps his family sell fish every day, and their family's income is also a lot. Xu Qingfeng's sister-in-law threatened Xu Chun and his wife with a divorce, and the old couple gritted their teeth and reported the conversation, and her sister-in-law slipped away, running back by herself with her baggage.

Such a woman is probably enough for the Xu family, if she can't get married, Xu Qingfeng's mother will be unlucky.

His sister-in-law is lazy, there is work to hide, there is delicious food to grab, Xu Qingfeng's mother will go to the tired, cooking, washing, feeding pigs, grinding sesame oil, and have to go to the ground, his sister-in-law just doesn't open her eyes, and she will move her heart if she is cheating and slippery.

Yang Liu looks down on such people.

"The dumplings are cooked!" Gu Shulan shouted, Yang Tianxiang and Dashan arrived home in the middle of the night, there was no watch in their own house, Shi Xianghua and Yang Tiancai had a wall clock, and the dogs of the family began to bark at twelve o'clock, and they heard the footsteps of people walking.

After calling for a while, it was quiet, the sound of firecrackers rang out, the year is over, tomorrow is the first day of the new year, it is the villagers to greet each other, to the older generation of the family New Year's greetings.

In the second year of junior high school, I left my relatives.

After eating the dumplings, the little girl had already fallen asleep, the mountain was sleepy, Yang Liu yawned again and again, and pulled the grandmother back to their house, and Yang Liu fell asleep in the quilt.

As soon as it was dawn, Yang Liu squinted for a while, and Gu Shulan called for dinner: I'm so sleepy. Yang Liu stretched a big lazy waist, and Grandma Tai got off the kang after getting dressed, looked at Yang Liu and smiled: "Too nap, right?" ”

Yang Liu also smiled, rubbed his eyes, and stretched his waist again, Yang Liu was energetic, and quickly dressed and went to the kang, so rubbing, if the stepmother slapped him a long time ago.

The morning of the first day of the new year is soaked porridge, the next year's meal fished a year ago, is to keep the first month soaked porridge to eat, the leftover dumplings on Chinese New Year's Eve are fried in oil, the New Year's stir-fry is back in the pot, only cabbage fried meat and mushroom fried meat, there are no greenhouse vegetables in this era, the New Year's greens are very monotonous, and there are not even raw bean sprouts.

Wealthy people's New Year's dry bar is meat, I don't know if it's a habit or usually eat less meat, no one is tired of it.

Just that large piece of meat, the fat is half thick, and it is full of oil when you bite it, Yang Liu feels very tired, and she only eats a piece.

After breakfast, the children were led by adults to pay New Year's greetings to their neighbors, that is, to worship each other.

The excitement died down in the afternoon after a long day.

Yang Liu looked at the second kicker that Yang Tianxiang bought, and there was only one shaft left: "Dad, why did you put your second kicker so fast?" ”

Yang Tianxiang looked at Yang Liu: "The girl is not allowed to set off a cannon." ”

Yang Liu rolled his eyes, who was idle and had nothing to think about that thing.

Dashan hurriedly interjected: "Sister, Dad gave the fifth uncle two shafts." ”

Yang Liu was speechless: Looking at the flowers and branches that the fifth uncle bought for Ercui, he was reluctant to spend money to buy a gun.

In the past two days of the New Year, the little brother's family has been very quiet, I heard that their family is even exempt from New Year's greetings, and Yang Tiancai does not give New Year's greetings to his father-in-law, which is really ridiculous.

In the second year of junior high school, Yangliu's family is going to pay New Year's greetings, to Lu Gezhuang's grandmother's house, only to load the car and come to the guests, the three uncles of Gaogezhuang, the children and the aunts, a large group of people who made a full ox cart, a dozen people, a large group of black pressure, Yang Liu felt dizzy.

Dashan and Yang Liu's joy suddenly dissipated, and Gu Shulan's mood to see her mother was also ruined.

The three concubines were cleverly drooling: "Sister, your aunt, sister!" screamed, and the eldest concubine carried two bags of fruits in her hands: "I miss grandma so much, your aunt can't wait to see grandma immediately." ”

Yang Liu heard why he was so hypocritical, Grandma Tai has lived here for half a year, and since her aunt went back to harvest autumn, no one has a shadow, and she didn't say anything about coming to see it a year ago, so many people came, so she brought two bags of fruit, and this meal was really cost-effective.

Auntie must be living again, Yang Liu guessed so, I promise to be right. Willow simply looked at their bones.

This meal is a tornado, a big pot of meat, a big pot of fish, two large bowls of fried meat, a small pot of meat, a big elbow to eat the essence, how can these people eat meat like this, they must not have bought meat for the New Year.

The children of their family can also eat much more than Dashan and Yangliu, the intestines of Yangliu and Dashan must have been starved by Zhang Shimin, and Yang Tianxiang Gu Shulan is not eaten by the adults of this family.

Grandma has to eat two bowls of meat alone, and today I really let go of the hug.

They are almost exhausted of their own meat.

Shocking, Yang Liu was only shocked.

If the family arrives in modern times, they can't afford to eat meat, and they will have to pay hundreds of dollars for a meal.

Yang Liu guessed right, Gu Shulan didn't stay, a few uncles didn't squeak when they left, aunts and grandmothers just wilted and stayed, Gu Shulan couldn't open her mouth to drive her away, and she stayed without talking for a while.

Okay, okay, there is no shortage of people to eat her own meat, no merit, she is not conscious at all, she lives in the first month, Gu Shulan has no in-laws, if there is an old man, she would have been stripped out a long time ago.

In the first month, I only go out on two days.

In the blink of an eye, spring is coming, the weather is getting warmer, and the time has come to plant early crops, at this time the crops are sorghum millet, all kinds of beans, there is no high-yield corn, there is no chemical fertilizer, just farm fertilizer, and the grain yield is very low.

After autumn, five acres of wheat were sown, and the remaining six acres were only planted with miscellaneous grains.

Yang Liu said: "Mom, we might as well plant melons and watermelons on a few acres of land." "Even in the later generations, the yield of wheat and corn is so high, and there is not much money from planting melons, and there are still two years to join the society, and you must catch money in these two years.

As long as Shi Xianghua is a cadre, this village will definitely not be better.

Also, 200 catties of grain per acre of land can only be sold for a few dollars, melons are more expensive than grain, and the yield is higher than grain.

Gu Shulan hurriedly greeted Yang Tianxiang, and the two discussed: "Just listen to Yang Liu, my daughter is going to make money." Gu Shulan said this, but Yang Tianxiang did not object: "It's just too troublesome, I have to buy soybean cakes and cottonseed dregs, and get that good raw maggot." ”

"Don't be afraid of trouble, just this little land, there is no other exhibition, and it is not easy to fish, let's plant melons, six acres of land and eighteen acres." Gu Shulan was very resolute.

"If you want to make fruit and sell it, you can make money." Yang Tianxiang was afraid that he wouldn't be able to do it.

"Dad, the fruit can't delay planting melons, I have a trick for maggots, I heard the melon seller say that Chinese medicine can cure maggots, that don't worry, spend a few dollars to solve it, Dad, you hurry up and cast the oven, and when the cream arrives, we will open the oven."

"This girl is very careful, I have heard people say that she has forgotten it for a long time, so we have decided, I will prepare bean cakes and cottonseed dregs." Yang Tianxiang left after speaking, his temperament is also very anxious, he is a good hand at work, and he is more willing to work harder than Yang Tiancai, or Zhang Shimin will control zhì and not let go.

It was only two days to plant melons, the first day to plant watermelons, today to plant melons, six acres of land in Zhuangbei or planted two acres of miscellaneous grains, watermelons and melons of all kinds of two acres.

The owners who grow melons are basically these, and no matter how much they are, they can't sell them.

In the afternoon, half a day of planting was finished, and it was all in the west of the day, and there were still six yards left, but a group of people came to the field, and her lord and uncle.

Yang Liu wondered: What are they doing here?

Several people have been running to Yang Tianxiang, Yang Tianxiang is in front of the wall, Gu Shulan points seeds and fertilizers, and willows sprinkle medicine.

I heard my worried grandfather say to Yang Tianxiang: "Fourth." Come back with me. ”

Yang Tianxiang was stunned: "Uncle Cousin is here, what's the matter with going back?" ”

The old man's eyes rolled: "What are you talking about?" You uncles and aunts, put my daughter in a cage and don't say anything, you don't look at a few children, and you don't take care of the children when you are an aunt, why don't you even understand a little human taste. ”

Gu Shulan's face turned red with anger: "Uncle Cousin! I can't understand that it's you, your daughter went to prison because she used a knife to cut people, how did we send her in?

We don't have anyone to take care of them, you ask, why didn't we give them food?

How much benefit have you received from my second sister-in-law, have you ever given a bite of delicious food to the children these days?

I see that you haven't even entered the door!, my second sister-in-law has provided you with our blood and sweat, who are you? Who qualifies us to reprimand? Zhang Shimin treats you as a person, what are you old Zhang family, all of them are lazy and lazy, stealing chickens and dogs to take advantage of small advantages, we don't hesitate to pay attention to you, do you really think we are stupid? We don't have your thick-skinned face, and we don't have the face of Brother Quan's brother without separation.

Look at the children educated by your daughter, a fool to her fourth uncle, my good things are better than feeding them dogs, how much blood and sweat you have exploited us, and you are shy and pretending to be an old man in front of us.

If we hadn't farmed to feed you, you would have starved to death! ”

Gu Shulan broke out today, maybe it was the little brother who made her angry, because it was really unpleasant to look at this family.

The younger brother's uncle hurriedly played the disc: "Fourth cousin-in-law, my dad can't speak, don't worry about him, something big happened in the family, go back with us first." ”

Yang Tianxiang frowned: "You get out of the way first, even if it's a dead man's business, I will finish planting the land, there are only six hills, it will be dark soon, go back with you?" Am I planted in the dark?

The old man rushed forward: "If you want to go back, you will leave!" How much nonsense! ”

Yang Tianxiang's whip was pumped, splashing the dust all over the sky, the old man took a step back, Yang Tianxiang shouted at the donkey to go, the old man still had to block Yang Tianxiang, was pulled by his son, he shouted: "It's so late, we have to go back!" ”

Yang Tianxiang ignored him, this old man was as domineering as Zhang Shimin, he was arrogant when he opened his mouth, Yang Tianxiang really wanted to whip him to avenge being exploited. RS
