Chapter 408: Let's work together to grow vegetables

Finally, Sima Mingzhu moved to Yunhai Villa with coaxing, and after settling down, he went to the original place to take a look, and someone who had already been arranged by Shumo moved in.

She bypassed Hu Dadong's house and came to the place where she had sheltered from the rain before, but was surprised to find that she couldn't see Yunhai Villa at all, only a dense and lush tree, like a big umbrella, she couldn't see anything under the tree. It's not the area I saw before, and although the trees are also lush, you can clearly see the clearing.

How were these trees planted and when did they come to be? You can't see it when you live in it.

She did not go back to Hu Dadong's house.

Before moving, she went with Shumo Jiu'er, according to her brother Jin Xiaoguang's meaning, she just said that she would go back to the capital, and Young Master Jin Zhen had already sent someone to take care of these fields and family businesses, and in the future, they just had to do things according to the instructions of the new steward.

Hu Dadong agreed one by one and gave them a ride.

He is also a stone in his heart that has finally landed. Sima Mingzhu and Lin Zhu have been here for so long, and it makes sense to go back.

Although there are a lot of these fields and family businesses, the rich are naturally willing to be in the capital, and their ladies will naturally go to the capital. Moreover, his niece has lived here for so long, and if he continues to live, he doubts whether the prince has driven his niece out.

So in the future, they can't appear in the eyes of their family at will.

When she returned to the villa, she carefully observed the layout of the villa, and found that all the buildings, even if it was a small room or a small pavilion, must be covered by huge trees around it, and the canopy was very large. The foliage is so dense that you can't see these huge structures from the mountains in the distance.

Who's so densely conceived and how did he come up with it.

In this way, this mountain villa is completely isolated from the world, and no one can find it if it is not his own. , even if you break in by mistake, you can't break in, and there are layers of handles outside.

Even Hu Dadong's family would not find out that she and Sima Mingzhu had moved here, and Cunkuan knew the rock layer on the opposite mountain to shelter from the rain, but although it seemed that the mountain was not far from this, it was very laborious to go there, and it was necessary to walk through several mountains and cross the canyon. There are often wild beasts in the mountains. It's okay, they don't run around.

It's safe.

Return to the lodge. Calm down.

remembered that Jin Xiaoguang said before leaving that he would be very busy next, maybe three years or maybe five years later. Maybe he's already on the move.

At this time, she can live here with peace of mind, with food and clothing, without bumps and displacement. There is no river of blood like the Buddha-figure. The tragic situation of corpses everywhere. It is already a great gift to be able to keep angelic children from the suffering of war.

Although the manor is beautifully repaired. Elegant, but after all, it is deep in the mountains, surrounded by towering trees outside. Lin Zhu lived in Yunhai Garden, Sima Mingzhu lived on the upper floor, the small courtyard was surrounded by drill poplars and weeping willows, called Yangliu Garden, and Jiu'er lived in a small courtyard next door to Lin Zhu.

Early in the morning, Lin Zhu asked Granny Jiang to call Granny Li, Jiu'er, and all the maids and mothers-in-law except Qinglian.

"Sister Jiu'er, Granny Jiang, Granny Li, Granny Li, Yunxiang Yuqin, I think you also know that the Seventh Master and the Ninth Master are trying to survive for us, which is related to life and death, so life and death are unpredictable. With them in front of us, we're safe here. But they can't take care of us now, and we can't let them worry about us, so we're on our own. There are several floors in this yard, and each layer has flat land, I think we are idle, so it is better to mine those fields and plant vegetables, you also know that this radius is thousands of miles except for my uncle's family, all of them are already ours, they are all farming, we can exchange vegetables with them for food, we can also raise silkworms, grow hemp, weave cloth, in addition to our own use. It is also possible to give them. We can also make vinegar to make sauces and pickles, and we always have to work our own strength. If in two or three years, the seventh and ninth masters come back, I will ask them to give each of you some land and some wages. Granny Jiang, you can also support the elderly, and Rue Xiang, you can also use the land salary as a dowry. ”

What she said was very beautiful, emotional, and infectious.

These women, who yearn for a normal life, are naturally very encouraged by what they hear. They are all peasant girls, who is afraid of doing farm work. So many unmarried girls were even more happy and wanted to secretly smile.

Mrs. Zhu'er is promising that they can marry and have a dowry in the future.

Granny Jiang expressed her attitude on behalf of everyone: "Mrs. Zhu'er, we have all done farm work, we can all take down the work of leveling the fields and preparing the land, and we can do any work such as raising silkworms, planting hemp and weaving, so you can speak." ”

Jiu'er has been following Bao Zhen for a long time, knowing that he has been overwhelmed by the lives of more than 100,000 people, but he has never been able to let go of this sister who has been displaced since childhood, as well as the little golden boy, for him, as long as his sister and son are well, he can devote himself wholeheartedly.

It is the will of the father and mother that the younger sister is safe and happy, and the son is the continuation of the bloodline of the family.

That's why she was the most relieved and trusted person to take care of them.

She knew that her position in the young master's heart would always be the most trustworthy subordinate, but she was still satisfied without regrets.

Even if she gave birth to the young master's child, Lin Zhu was still her master.

She said respectfully, "Zhu'er, you're right. From now on, I will take everyone to work every day, and Granny Jiang and Granny Li will be responsible for arranging meals. ”

Lin Zhu said, "Let's go together." ”

Jiu'er smiled and said, "Zhu'er, I think you are more suitable for taking children." Look at those three little devils who were coaxed by you,"

Speaking of Lin Zhu's methods of coaxing children, no one can compare, and the little golden boy Xiao Yuanbao, who is now more than a year old, will haunt her as long as her eyes are open, and she is not in shape, so she takes them crazy. Now her daughter, who is less than a year old and can already speak, also opened her mouth: "Aunt Lin, Aunt Lin's." ”

Lin Zhu said: "You can also work with children." Who said you have to take a leave of absence with a child?"

After speaking, he pointed to the top and said: "Only people can get out of production, who makes people from noble backgrounds." ”

She said this just to balance the minds of others, and everyone did their work. Only she is leisurely every day and finds fault from time to time. From time to time, there will be some escape dramas, and every square inch has a pattern.

But who made the family the mother of the little golden boy! Or a princess who is desperate for love.

This is understood. As long as she makes less trouble and less trouble, she doesn't have to do anything.

Granny Li has been serving Sima Mingzhu for more than two years, and she has a deep understanding of her brutality. , I didn't know her identity very well before, so I could only endure it with my body down. I couldn't stand it anymore, so I secretly hid out and assigned a few little maids to take it first. Now she slowly saw that Lin Zhu was actually the one who took care of things, and although Lin Zhu also carried beads like Sima Mingzhu. It is said that the tree of the forest plant means grass. Sima Mingzhu's plant means jewelry, but she thinks the grass-like forest is more cute.

Therefore, he will not try his best to tolerate Sima Mingzhu as hard as before, and he will not listen to her when necessary, and let her go crazy alone.

She agreed with Lin Zhu's meaning. She didn't think Sima Mingzhu's true identity was noble. But it was absolutely right to take her out of work. Because even if she participates in the ranks of hard work and self-reliance, she will only cause trouble and hinder progress...... Affects mood.

Now that Lin Zhu said this, she hurriedly said: "Mrs. Zhu'er is right, we can do it, as long as Mrs. Mingzhu doesn't add to the chaos." ”

The other maids and mothers-in-law unanimously approved.

Thinking that they can grow vegetables and flowers and food in the future, they are naturally very excited.

Whether it is the previous dynasty that they continue to follow or the current Qin Nanguo, they are still mainly agricultural, and they can own fields, even if they have a few acres, it is also an identity.

Just do it, the first task at present is to level the land. A group of women rolled up their sleeves, found farm tools, pickaxes, shovels, hoes, and a few wooden shovels to find a vacant field first, and flattened the bumpy ditches little by little, and dug up those high hills, which looked like steps. and put up stalks on the other three sides.

There are still many people with great strength, although they are all women, and they are all with the physique of men, they have been working for more than half a month, layer by layer from bottom to top, they have been leveled out of more than a dozen layers, although they are not very neat, but the adult soil that has been turned out is sprinkled with the fragrance of earth, with a fresh dark, and it is comfortable to look at.

Granny Jiang and Granny Li and the nurse of the little ingots are old and experienced, looking at these lands, happy feet do not feel tired, and after running and finding a lot of places that can be developed, some even only six or seven square meters, she is also interested in leveling them out, so a month later. The large manor hidden under all kinds of towering trees, the courtyards, houses, pavilions and pavilions on all floors are all surrounded by a piece of flat land.

"We can't just plant all of them and call them to decorate it, and we'll sprinkle flowers around that pavilion, and we'll go collect them in a few days, anything, just bloom. Some corn was planted in front of and behind that attic, and we had a good taste of tender corn on the cob. The land over there is not very peaceful, so we plant radish, all kinds of radish, plus edamame, that slice of leeks, that piece of green onions, that piece of garlic, that piece of spinach and cabbage, that piece of beans we grind tofu to eat, that piece of millet stuffed rice vinegar. All the rest are planted with cabbage, cabbage, Chinese cabbage, greens, lettuce, celery, eggplant, beans, cucumbers, tomatoes, lettuce, winter melon, potatoes, pumpkin, and even lian, daylily, and some sunflowers....... ”

She said a lot in one breath, and said almost all the vegetables in the vegetable garden, and there were also those that the vegetable garden did not have, such as red cabbage.

Granny Jiang and Granny Li, the maids all listened with enthusiasm.

So many dishes. Usually there are only a few of them.

"Also, sprinkle some alfalfa seeds under the trees and feed them to the pigs and chickens."

"And go and see if there are mulberry trees there, move a few small ones over to prepare for silkworm raising, and leave some space to grow hemp. Do you have any opinions on wearing linen clothes in the future? ”

There is no cotton, and linen should be good, at least in the summer.

Everyone is used to hardship, so naturally there is no opinion. It's just that there are so many vegetable seeds where to find, and you can't go out.

Lin Zhu said confidently: "Don't worry about the seeds. Wait for the next planting, and now go and find the water that is at the bottom of the valley, and there is a source of water. ”

Rue Xiang hurriedly said: "There are water dripping down from the stone cliff crevice behind the Mingzhu Lady Willow Garden, and it all falls into the puddle and seeps into the soil. ”

She just happened to see it the other day, but the puddle was too small.

Yuqin also said: "There is also a house behind the house where we live. ”

The water oozing out of the cracks in the stone is the source of the sweet spring.

Lin Zhu hurriedly said: "Granny Jiang went to find Zhang Qiang and Li Wang, and let the men do all the hard work." ”

Since there is water, it is necessary to build a few small springs, which place is a little more prosperous, and can be used as edible water, so there is no need for Zhang Qiang and Li Wang to send water from the bottom of the valley every day, and they will have to water vegetables in the future, and the water consumption is very large.

Zhang Qiang, Li Wang, Fang Yuan, Fang Cun, is now a veritable messenger of protecting flowers, the four of them are young, their eyes are good, their bodies are flexible, their martial arts are strong, they live in the top small attic, Zhang Qiang and Li Wang are older, and they are steady and guard the gate. From the bottom to the top, the mountain village winds along the path and does not pass by the places where people live, and it takes half an hour.

When they all arrived, they decided to build a few small springs out of the few bluestone bricks left at the time of construction.

Li Wang had also worked as a stonemason before, and the four men usually didn't see women, so they all wanted to perform well in front of many women at this time, and they were in full swing.

The women were busy serving tea and water, and the women who were just beginning to fall in love also secretly watched the four men, who were still baby-faced, innocent. Zhang Qiang and Li Wang are strong and strong, Rue Xiang is a little older, and she has a very good impression of Li Wang, and she flies a few winks at him.

It made Li Wang's heart flutter, and he worked harder.

Where can this little action be hidden from Lin Zhu's eyes, she pursed her lips and smiled secretly, and she didn't say anything. Just watching the three children play, Xiao Jin'an crawled on the straw mat, and the little golden boy Xiao Yuan Bao hid around the big tree.

The innocent and immature laughter makes people's hearts throb inexplicably.

Everyone was immersed in the joy of labor, and Sima Mingzhu also walked slowly with Qinglian and saw four men surrounding the spring. The maid and mother-in-law Lin Zhujiu'er were busy, and she wanted to say a few sarcastic words, but suddenly her brain opened.

With a smile, he stepped forward and picked up the little golden boy and said, "Qinglian, look at his dirty, and change his clothes." ”

After finishing speaking, she turned around and went back, and Qinglian hurriedly followed. Xiao Yuanbao was usually a little afraid of Sima Mingzhu, so he didn't keep up after taking a look. Lin Zhu saw that Sima Mingzhu had taken away the little golden boy, and he didn't think much about it, stepped forward to pick up Xiao Jin'an, and continued to feel the beauty brought by labor.

A few springs were built all day. No one saw Sima Mingzhu holding the little golden boy and followed by Qinglian, who was very reluctant but helpless, and hurriedly went down the mountain and walked out of the gate. (To be continued.) )
