As Cai Er spoke, he carried two buckets of water to a slightly farther place, looking very relaxed. It seems that I just picked up something by the way while walking, and I don't see the difficulty at all.

Dad's arm strength is not small, if he is trained, he may be a martial arts master. Lin Zhu followed behind Cai Er, watched the two buckets of water pour into the vegetable field, helped lift the empty bucket and said, "Dad, do you want to water it all little by little?" ”

Cai Er nodded and said: "Yes, this year's spring rain is expensive, and it hasn't fallen at all until now, and it looks like I'm about to sprinkle rapeseeds, where can I do this." Fortunately, there is a well in our garden, and the water is abundant. Watering an acre and a half a day is not a problem. ”

One acre and a half a day, eight acres of land is not ten days and half a month, so thunderous.

She saw that the place where Cai Er's two large buckets of water were poured just now was only more than one square meter.

couldn't help frowning and said, "Dad, we don't have to pour it so hard." I think as long as we wet the ground and sow the rapeseed, maybe in a few days, the next spring rain, the vegetable will grow slowly. ”

"That's not going to work." When Cai Er heard her daughter say this, she said very strictly: "Daughter, we are poor, the master has given us land, given us clothes to wear, and given us monthly rations, and we are worthy of the master." Be worthy of your conscience. The older generation often says that people coax people, and the land is like their own children, and they must be taken care of in order to have good harvests. Daughter, growing vegetables is not better than growing grain, and you can't be sloppy at all. People coax people to the ground, the ground cannot be watered thoroughly, and the seeds germinate slowly and grow without spirit. It's not Daddy's boasting. Since my father took over this vegetable garden, no one in the owner's family has said half a word about my father. So we were able to live in the vegetable garden as a family of three. ”

Cai Er's face showed a smug look that could not be concealed when he spoke, and he felt a sense of accomplishment.

It's really simple and cute to have a father. But it's good to be like this.

She hurriedly said: "Dad is right, my daughter just thinks it's too hard." I'm afraid my dad will be tired. ”

Cai Er smiled and said: "Dad knows that his daughter is filial, but every bit of labor and harvest, now he is a little tired, and he has watered the ground thoroughly, and when the seeds go to the ground, they will grow very quickly in a few days." , and the eggplant cucumber bean seedlings are very delicate, and the vegetable seedlings grow well. The survival rate is high after transplanting. ”

Lin Zhu doesn't know anything about growing vegetables. Where to know what seedlings are transplanted.

But the meaning is clear, it means that eggplant, beans, and cucumbers are all transplanted, and seedlings must be raised first.

She didn't understand that if you planted a seed, you just had to sprinkle the rapeseed into the soil. The vegetables will grow...... People would pick them and make vegetables. How could it be so troublesome.

She asked puzzledly: "Dad, can't you just plant it directly, why bother so much." Transplanting is a lot of work. ”

Caiji smiled helplessly at his daughter's ignorance, her daughter has been living in the vegetable garden for five or six years, and she still doesn't understand, it seems that it is really not a hard life.

He patiently explained: "Eggplant, beans, cucumbers, and greens are all big vegetables, if you don't transplant them." If it grows too fast, the roots can't absorb nutrients, and the vegetables don't grow well, and some can't support it. ”

It turns out that this is the case, cucumbers she has seen in the vegetable garden of the farmhouse before, it is to be built, each cucumber shelf will grow many cucumbers, if the root nutrition can not keep up, it is really not good.

Seeing that her daughter was listening very carefully, Caiji told her some common sense about growing vegetables.

It turns out that these peppers, cucumbers, eggplants, beans, lettuce, leeks, spinach, cabbage, radish, coriander, celery, and a series of other dishes that I used to eat often have a growing period just like people. Vegetable growers are like their parents, from digging the soil and ploughing the land to watering and fertilizing, planting and weeding, catching insects, and finally receiving the goods, a step is indispensable and lazy.

Cai Er's mouth was dry, and when he saw that Lin Zhu still listened to it with relish, he was happy in his heart, and said: "Zhu'er, my father can't do anything in his life, he will grow vegetables, and now you can't see it, and after a few days, all kinds of vegetables will grow, one by one." There are all kinds of flowers blooming, and my father is happy when he looks at it. Don't think you're unproductive. ”

"Dad, how can Zhu'er think that Dad is unproductive." Lin Zhu hurriedly said: "Dad is so capable, the vegetables are so good, who dares to say that my dad is not promising, I will fight with him." ”

can grow vegetables, and can be regarded as an expert in growing vegetables, if this ability is in the previous life, he has not become a nouveau riche, and it is too late to admire, how can he look down on it.

Cai Er saw that her daughter had admiration in her eyes, and she spoke with affirmation, and her heart blossomed. Growing vegetables is not in the flow in this era, and ordinary people just grow small vegetables around the yard in the field, which is not a profession, that is, an accessory of the rich and noble. It's not a status.

Affirmed by his daughter, he felt that he was happier than being affirmed by the owner, and became more and more energetic to carry the bucket to fetch water, while saying loudly: "Zhu'er, you go to the outside of the vegetable field to slow down, be careful to step on the mud, and the work in the field can be done by oneself." ”

Let's see if it doesn't really help. Caiji also resolutely refused to let her baby daughter do the work in the field.

Agreed, tiptoeing, and carefully walked out of the vegetable patch along the ridge.

Cai Er Niangzi has finished picking the rapeseeds, soaked them, and is busy in the kitchen, when she saw her coming, she said lovingly: "Zhu'er, I've been busy for so many days, and I'm finally free, so I don't want to sleep for a while, and I am running around what I am doing." ”

Lin Zhu said: "Mother, my daughters have slept until they wake up naturally." If you don't move anymore, your body will stiffen. ”

Cai Er Niangzi said: "It's right to sleep until you wake up, my daughter is so capable, she has earned so much silver in a few days, my mother couldn't sleep last night, and she got up in the middle of the night to look at it secretly." ”

Lin Zhu said: "Mother, this is just the beginning, this money is our old book, we can take it out when we need it, and in the future, my daughter will find a way to make more money, so that you and my father can eat whatever you want, wear whatever you want, and go wherever you want, mother, didn't you say that my grandfather will come these days, and when he comes, I will go to the town to cut some meat and make dumplings for my grandfather." ”

Cai Er Niangzi listened to what her daughter said beautifully, and she wanted to make meat dumplings for her father, Le's eyes narrowed into a slit, and she said happily: "Zhu'er, you don't know that my mother went to your uncle's house this time, but she has a long face, and several of your cousins are clamoring to come to our house." ”

"Let them all come, come and make food for them." Lin Zhu stood outside the kitchen door and helped pick out a handful of leeks: "But my mother is waiting for them to come, so I can't save money." ”

"If you don't save money, it's all your own family." Cai Er Niangzi has always been very stingy with her family, not that she is reluctant, but not at all. Now that I have the forest trees in my hand, I am naturally willing to spend.

As the mother and son were talking, they heard the dog biting and looked at the gate together, and it was Lin Yunlin who walked in together. With a smile on his face, he had a paper bag in his nest. (To be continued......)
