Chapter Ninety-Two: Luoluo's Classroom Begins
Winter bamboo shoots are bamboo shoots that grow in the ground at the beginning of autumn, and the bamboo shoots that grow in the low temperature environment in autumn and winter, and are not unearthed, and the bamboo shoots are very young and tender, and they are more delicious than the spring bamboo shoots that have grown out of the soil.
As a native of Zhulin Village, Huang Gufeng is very familiar with how to find winter bamboo shoots buried in the soil.
"Grandpa Feng, how did you find the winter bamboo shoots buried in the ground?" Luoluo felt very miraculous, and the winter bamboo shoots buried in the bamboo woodland were quickly found and dug up by Huang Gufeng.
"This is a skill, I'll teach you." Huang Gufeng said with a smile.
In fact, it is very simple to find winter bamboo shoots, find a bamboo root, look for it along the direction of the bamboo root, if there is a bulge in the ground, it is basically eight or nine and ten.
Huang Gufeng introduced the method of finding winter bamboo shoots, and after a while, Luoluo found the first winter bamboo shoot, and the little girl smiled happily.
After digging more than a dozen winter bamboo shoots, Zhao Yuan was not greedy and asked Huang Gufeng to stop, it was enough to have so many to eat at home.
"Uncle Feng, these are enough, help me dig two more bamboos and plant them back." Zhao Yuan said with a smile.
"Okay, this is easy, I'll help you find two good ones." Huang Gufeng said with a smile.
Bamboo roots are very difficult to dig, especially fresh bamboo roots, the ground of the bamboo forest is very hard, and the soil is densely covered with fine roots of bamboo, it took a while for Huang Gufeng and Zhao Yuan to dig out two big bamboos with most of the bamboo roots.
"Wow, a few more bamboo shoots." Seeing that there were still a few bamboo shoots on the bamboo roots dug up by Huang Gufeng and Zhao Yuan, Luoluo exclaimed.
"Don't break these bamboo shoots, if you plant them in the ground, they may grow into bamboo this year." Huang Gufeng said with a smile.
"Okay."
…………
After having lunch at Huang Gufeng's house, Zhao Yuan chatted with Huang Gufeng about some knowledge of farming, and in the morning, the content of the copy book was picked and talked about again, which surprised Huang Gufeng and his wife, who had been planting for more than ten years, that the original land could still be planted like this.
How to soak seeds, how to fertilize, how deep the ground should be turned, and several methods to prevent and control pests and diseases...... Let Huang Gufeng and his wife feel that what Zhao Yuan said is very reasonable, this year's land can be tried to plant a small piece of land to see the effect.
Zhao Yuan's family, who came to Zhulin Village to harvest more than a dozen winter bamboo shoots, two bamboo seeds, and more than a dozen tea tree seedlings, are also ready to go back at this time. I asked Huang Gufeng for a few sacks, loaded with bamboo roots, bamboo shoots and tea seedlings, and let the two donkeys carry them.
"Uncle Feng, Aunt Feng, I'm sorry for you today, and Yuesheng Yuehua, you have time to go to my house to play." Zhao Yuan said to Huang Gufeng's family.
"What's the trouble, Zhao Yuan, your house is quite close to us now, you often come to play when you have time, and Luoluo, come to us to pick up bamboo mushrooms when the bamboo fungus is ready." Huang Gufeng said with a smile.
"Okay, Grandpa Feng." Luoluo nodded with a smile and said.
"Uncle Feng, Aunt Feng, let's go, Luoluo, say goodbye to Grandpa Feng, Grandma Feng, Uncle Yuesheng, and Aunt Yuehua." Zhao Yuan said with a smile.
"Grandpa Feng, Grandma Feng, Uncle Yuesheng, Aunt Yuehua, goodbye, welcome to my house to play." Luoluo said obediently.
"Okay, goodbye, Zhao Yuan, Xiaoying, Luoluo, you go slowly." Huang Gufeng's family sent Zhao Yuan's family to the path in the corner of the house and said with a smile.
After saying goodbye, Zhao Yuan and Meng Ying respectively led two donkeys, one large and one small, and walked towards home.
"Dad, I want to go to school." Huang Gufeng's family, after Zhao Yuan and the others left, Huang Yuesheng said to his father.
"Yuesheng, our family has no money, so we can't afford you to study." Huang Gufeng shook his head and sighed and said.
"Luoluo will have so many because she has read, and I want to be like her." Huang Yuesheng said with a sad face.
Zhao Yuan often talked about the importance of reading, and sponsored the children of Zhaojiazhuang to study. This morning, Huang Yuesheng, who was playing with Luoluo, was also baptized and felt that she should also go to study. Yuehua had no concept of these because she was still young, and took a biscuit left by Zhao Yuan's family and ate it on the side.
"In charge, Zhao Yuan said that he wanted to buy spring bamboo shoots, did he say what price he would give, if the price is high, we should be able to send Yuesheng to study by then." Aunt Feng looked at her son's appearance, and felt a prick in her heart.
"I didn't say it, but Zhao Yuan is generous, the last time he came to the village to buy bamboo, the price he gave was very fair." Huang Gufeng shook his head and said.
"Yuesheng, after the spring bamboo shoots come out and are sold, if the money is enough, I will send you to study, okay."
"Really?"
"Really!"
…………
When Zhao Yuan's family returned home, they unloaded the things carried by the two donkeys, put the two donkeys in the donkey shed, put some forage, and then took the hoe and prepared to plant the two bamboo roots at the back of the house.
"Uncle, just these two bamboo roots, can they grow into a bamboo forest like Zhulin Village in the future?" Luoluo asked.
"Yes, Luoluo, you have also seen that when the bamboo shoots on the bamboo roots grow, they will grow into bamboo, and after the bamboo grows, more bamboo roots will grow, and more bamboo shoots will grow, so that there will be more and more bamboos, and slowly a bamboo forest will be formed." Zhao Yuan said with a smile.
"Oh, it's going to be a long time, uncle?" Luoluo asked.
"Yes, but bamboo grows very quickly, and a bamboo tree can grow in a year."
"Brother Yuan, if we plant bamboo here, will it grow into our home?" Meng Ying asked on the side.
"It's really possible, but when the time comes, we can cut off the bamboo roots that have escaped into the house in advance." Zhao Yuan said with a smile that the floor of the house was paved with bricks, and even if there were bamboo roots growing under the house, they would not grow.
"Uncle, why do you want to cut off the bamboo roots, how good it would be to wait for the bamboo shoots to grow directly into the house, and you can dig the bamboo shoots in the house." Luoluo shook her head and said.
"You can't let the bamboo roots grow into the house, let's do an experiment in a few days, Luoluo, you know that the power of plant growth is very great."
"Okay, I like to watch my uncle do experiments the most." Luoluo said happily.
During this time, Zhao Yuan taught Luoluo some physical chemistry knowledge, and sometimes did some small experiments, which greatly increased Luoluo's interest.
"Just plant it here, and there will be a bamboo forest behind the house in the future." Walking to a distance of about thirty meters behind the house, Zhao Yuan stopped and said.
"Okay, uncle, why don't you have seeds for bamboo, and you want to use this bamboo root to plant?"
"Because bamboo is not easy to flower, it is generally planted with freshly dug bamboo roots."
"Will the bamboo still bloom, Brother Yuan?" Meng Ying asked curiously.
"It will bloom, but the bamboo will die when it blooms." Zhao Yuan said with a smile.
After planting the two bamboos in the house, Zhao Yuan took Meng Ying and Luoluo to the ground to plant the tea tree seedlings on the edge of the soil, and then returned to the house.
"Luoluo, do you remember when you said you were going to the bazaar to take lessons with the people recruited by our shop?" After drinking some cold boiled water that had been boiled in the morning, Zhao Yuan asked Luoluo.
Zhao Yuan thought that the decoration of the shops in the bazaar was about to be completed, and the clerks recruited by Tao Pu should be almost in place, and the training had to keep up.
"Okay, uncle, shall we go in a moment?" Luoluo said happily.
"We'll go early tomorrow morning, Luoluo, you have to think about how to teach the brothers and sisters who come to work in our store."
"Okay, I'll think about it." Luoluo said with a smile that Luoluo's class was about to start.
