Chapter 112: Land Exchange
After finishing the village school, Lin Zhu also had a lot less worries, so he calmed down and discussed with Chang Shi how to cultivate the three Zhuangzi in spring, Lin Zhu's seeds had already been prepared, and they had been placed in the space for several months, and all kinds of seeds were so full and vibrant.
There is also here in Linjia Village, Lin Zhu has already thought about it, this year will not be planting watermelons in the field behind her home, if she can, she wants to buy the three acres of dry land of Lin Changsheng's family, and circle it with her own land and the village, Lin Zhu is ready to build a wolfberry garden on this land. This is still the idea that came to Li Guihua when she came to ask her if she wanted to hire her to pick wolfberries.
Last summer, Lin Zi'an's punishment was to clean up and level the wasteland around the village, and now it has been made idle, if all the wolfberries are planted, after they grow up in the future, they will definitely be very beautiful and have a very good income.
"Aunt Li, you said that I used the two acres of paddy field to exchange the three acres of land next to my family with Xiaoli's family, is her family willing to exchange it?" Lin Zhu deliberately found Aunt Li and asked her to help think about it. "Why don't you change? Your two acres of land for her family's land, not to mention three acres, even if it is ten acres, people like Wen Shanniang are willing to change it. Only exchanged those three acres, but they took a big advantage. "Aunt Li is very sorry for Lin Zhu.
"Can you please help me ask, auntie, while the spring is not yet ready to prepare the land, I want to change it as soon as possible." Lin Zhu felt that this matter should be done sooner rather than later, and he had to take advantage of the fact that the wolfberry trees on Xiaoqingshan had not sprouted to get the cuttings down.
"Okay, Auntie will go and ask you." Aunt Li nodded. "However, Wen Shanniang, you also know that it is good to take advantage. Last year, you planted watermelons in that field, and they grew so well, she had already seen them, and during the Chinese New Year, I heard her mention that she wanted to plant watermelons in that field, and she thought about being like you last year. ”
"Auntie," Lin Zhu shook his head with a smile, "I applied base fertilizer after harvesting the autumn crops in that field." Another winter passed. Her land can't be compared at all, and besides, she can't buy special watermelon seeds. "This man is too whimsical, so barren land. I didn't prepare at all. I also want a good harvest. How can there be a pie in the sky.
Aunt Li nodded, indicating that she understood, and she saw how Lin Zhu's piece of land was cleaned up in her eyes. Such a young child, following the adults to get up early and work in the dark, little by little to get a good harvest. How much hard work has been paid inside, how can those people in the village who watch the excitement know the way. Aunt Li also has a score in her heart.
The next day, after Mrs. Li talked to the village chief Lin Changqing, she went to Lin Changsheng's house. "Changsheng, where are you at home?" Aunt Li entered the courtyard gate and saw Lin Changsheng packing up farm tools in the courtyard to prepare for the beginning of spring.
"It's sister-in-law, come in, is there something wrong?" Lin Changsheng put down the work in his hand. "Well, there's something wrong, why isn't Wen Shanniang at home?" Aunt Li took a look, but she didn't see any trace of Wen Shanniang. "Oh, the eldest lady said that she went to the county to buy some watermelon seeds, and brought her a copy, and she went to get it." Lin Changsheng let Aunt Li to the hall. "Uncle is here." Xiaoli came out of her room, saw Aunt Li, and hurriedly said hello.
"Yo, Xiaoli is wearing such a beautiful dress today, where are you going?" Xiaoli now has a lot of money in her private house, so she naturally dresses up very beautifully. "Sister Xiaoyu, didn't I tell you? When we went to Xiaozhu's house today, Aunt Qian wanted to teach us new tricks, and we discussed going together today. Xiaoli showed the sewing kit in her hand to Aunt Li, which was some embroidery work she did, but it was all small, but in Aunt Li's opinion, the craftsmanship was already very good. I listened to her mutter, but I didn't pay attention to it, I see that your craft is getting better and better, and you have saved a lot of money, Xiaoyu's girl never showed me how much money she earned, and I don't want her, this girl is getting more and more ghostly. The latter sentence was said to Lin Changsheng, seemingly complaining, but in fact, he was very happy.
"But no, Xiaoli too, no matter how her mother asked her, she didn't say anything, and she was afraid that her mother would see it, and she didn't know where she was hiding." Lin Changsheng also said with a smile. "Dad, how can there be such a thing as you, didn't I give you a drink." Xiaoli said nonchalantly. "Xiaoli has really grown up and is sensible, Zhilu Dao has drunk to her father, I will go back, I have to talk to Xiaoyu well, let her learn more from you." Aunt Li found that Xiaoli now has a completely different change from before. used to be stingy and selfish, and some good things were eager to be held in his arms, but now he is not only gentle in his speech, but also polite, and it is rare that he has already known filial piety to his parents at such a young age.
"Hehe, sister-in-law, Xiaoli has learned needlework since she followed Xiaoyu to Miss Linzhu's house, and Xu is Chang's mother often teaches them, and she is much more sensible than before, so I really have to thank you." Lin Changsheng said with emotion. My mother-in-law once did such a shameful thing, but instead of caring about it, she also allowed her daughter to follow the housekeeper's mother to learn from the girl, but this favor is too much.
"Xiaozhu's girl doesn't care about these, and besides, their little sisters are also having fun playing together, so don't worry too much. When Xiaoli learns and makes clothes for Lin Zhu, it will be regarded as Xie Lu thanking her, anyway, Xiaozhu doesn't know anything about this. Aunt Li said with a smile. Auntie, I don't dare to be ugly in front of Xiaozhu, I'm still far away, you haven't seen Aunt Qian's craftsmanship, Sister Xiaoqing has won her true heritage. Xiaoli said enviously.
"Hehe, you also study hard, and you will definitely be better than your Xiaoqing sister's embroidery in the future." Xiaoli talked to Aunt Li for a while, and then left, she has great enthusiasm and talent for embroidery.
"Changsheng, in fact, I came to you today, and it is also related to Xiaozhu." After Xiaoli left, Aunt Li said to Lin Changsheng Zhengse. "Sister-in-law, what's the matter?"
"I heard that Wen Shanniang wants to grow watermelons on the land west of the village, right?" Lin Changsheng didn't know the purpose of her questioning, but he still replied, "Yes, this is not a watermelon seed." ”
"Hehe," Aunt Li smiled, "Why don't you buy some seeds from Xiaozhu?" ”
"Aren't they all the same?" Lin Changsheng was a little confused. "How can it be the same? Xiaozhu's watermelon field grows well, you don't see it, let's find a low-grade paddy field this year to try planting, and use her seeds. "Aunt Li said what she did." Of course, whether you want her watermelon seeds or not, you decide for yourself. ”
"Sister-in-law, according to what you say, Miss Lin Zhu's watermelon seeds are even better than those in the seed shop in the county." Lin Changsheng asked in disbelief. "I'm not sure, it's the first time we've planted it. And since last year's harvest in the autumn, the field where the watermelons are ready to be planted has been fertilized, which is also made with Xiaozhu, last year's watermelons grew so well, how to do it, you Changqing brother is looking at it step by step, this is what you and I just said, I won't tell outsiders. Aunt Li's words stunned Lin Changsheng, he didn't expect that there was such a trick in this. Lin Changqing didn't write this in the booklet he sent to everyone.
Knowing his doubts, Aunt Li continued, "This is also what Xiaozhu told us last year, in fact, when she was fertilizing, we also knew Lu Dao, but I didn't expect it to play such a role, no one cared." ”
"So that's the case, then according to what you say, if we plant watermelons on the land west of the village this year, they will definitely not grow well." Lin Changsheng felt so suspenseful, fortunately, Aunt Li greeted him in advance, if he planted blindly, let alone make money, it would be good if he didn't lose money.
"It's definitely not like Xiaozhu last year." Aunt Li will not tell him to die. Lin Changsheng lowered his head and thought for a while, "But sister-in-law, didn't you just say that you had something to look for us?" ”
"Yes, that's right, Xiaozhu wants to use those two acres of paddy fields in exchange for the three acres of land in the west of your village, but I heard that you want to be in that kind of watermelon, so I specially asked you to ask you first." As soon as Aunt Li's words came out, Lin Changsheng muttered a little in his heart, didn't he say what he said just now in exchange for the three acres of land? Scare us? But after thinking about it again, it's not right, Lin Zhu's two acres of land are 800 catties of grain per acre, how can she be willing to change it? Thinking about it, he asked, "Sister-in-law, how could Miss Lin Zhu want to exchange that good land for our dry land?" I know her two acres of land, and the harvest is particularly good. “
"I'm not going to hide it from you." Aunt Li's words made Lin Changsheng's face a little bad, and just as he was about to speak, Aunt Li preemptively said, "Don't worry, listen to me tell you." Aunt Li waved at him. Xiaozhu wants to think about the land under Xiaoqingshan and plant a beet seed garden, which is also called wolfberry, and the wolfberry medicine store that grows into it is harvested. That's why I want to exchange land with you. ”
After listening to Aunt Li's words, Lin Changsheng eased up, it turned out that he didn't have to change it for the sake of growing watermelons. "Isn't that a rare thing for us?" "There are a few trees on the small green hill, and she wants to get them down and plant them on the flat ground. Last year we planted some, but it's not time to harvest yet. Aunt Li explained to him.
"I'll have to discuss this with Wenshan's mother." Lin Changsheng still couldn't fully trust Aunt Li's words, so he didn't agree immediately. "Okay, you can discuss it with her. Don't worry, my sister-in-law won't fool you just because she helped Xiaozhu, if you don't believe it, you can go to my house and take a look, it was turned over last year, and now you can see it. After Aunt Li finished speaking, she said goodbye and went back. Leaving Lin Changsheng to sit in his own hall thoughtfully.
Thank you for the peace charm rewarded by Light Rain Sihan. (To be continued......)
