Chapter Twenty-Eight: Flickering
Chen Fei is busy with his career!
Last night, Village Chief Yang came back from the county with Yang Qingzheng, and Chen Daomai cheekily went to Village Chief's house to borrow cattle early this morning.
With oxen to help with the farming, Chen Fei's poor labor has become more and more dispensable, and he now only needs to take care of the orchard wholeheartedly.
I discussed with my dad last night, and the fence of the orchard will be handed over to my dad after the farm is busy, and there is no need to rush to fence off the entire orchard at present, which is too much work, and only need to fence off the place where the chickens are raised.
What Chen Fei has to do now is to water and fertilize a few dying trees in the orchard.
Of course, Chen Fei's thin arms and legs naturally can't do heavy work such as watering and fertilizing, and he fooled Hu Kang and Wang Tian to work at the cost of ten catties of peaches and three catties of plums per person.
The work in the fields of the old Hu family and the Wang family is almost done, and a few people are just idle, so they should come out to make extra money, and when the peaches and plums are ripe, they can use it to satisfy their hunger.
It is also strange to say that Chen Fei found that there were more than 100 households in the village, and only his own family seemed to have the most fields, and the fields of the old Hu family were much smaller than Chen Fei's.
And only his family has an orchard in the whole village.
"Hey! Although you have a lot of land, but there are about 20 acres of low-grade fields, there is no yield, most of my family is medium fields, although the land is less than yours, but the yield is higher than yours. ”
Hu Kangsheng's five big and three coarse, it was not difficult for one person to carry two loads of water, and he explained to Chen Fei with a smile.
So that's the case, the question in Chen Fei's heart was solved one, and there was a second.
"Then why don't you plant fruit trees in your family?"
Wang Tian laughed and said to Chen Fei: "Do you really don't know or don't you know?" Why are you more confused than we are in your own affairs? ”
Chen Fei's face flushed, he really didn't remember much about his family, so he only asked a few people for advice.
Wang Tian put down the water he was picking, rubbed his shoulders and continued to put the water on his shoulders.
"Actually, I don't know very well, I only heard that your grandfather is not a local, it seems that he fled from another place, and when he settled in Yongle Village, he just happened to be in time for the government to divide the land.
However, your grandfather is from outside, so naturally it is impossible to give you good fields, so most of them are low-grade fields. Among them, there is a large area of non-fields, which was originally a fruit forest, a forest that originally lived in the landlord's house in Yongle Village, but the landlord fled because of the war, and the fruit forest was also deserted, so the government simply counted the abandoned fruit forest as Yongye Tian and distributed it to your grandfather, it seems to be such a thing, I don't know the specifics, you better go back and ask your father. ”
It turns out that this is the case, Chen Fei touched his chin and thought.
No wonder Daddy doesn't know how to take care of the orchard, it turns out that these fruit trees are ready-made.
Chen Fei was still puzzled at first, but as soon as Wang Tian explained, he understood everything.
In this way, Chen Fei's grandfather and Chen Fei's father are still capable.
From an unwelcome outsider to being able to live in harmony with the whole village, I think I have suffered a lot of grievances and spent a lot of effort to do it.
"Ah Fei, what are we going to do next?" Hu Kang, Hu Di, and Wang Tian carried a total of five buckets of water, and at this moment they were putting down the buckets and standing in the orchard holding their waists panting.
"Those trees are dying, please go and water them."
"Okay!" The two brothers Hu Kang and Hudi are more honest, and they roll up their sleeves and do it.
Wang Tian was much more clever than them, and when he saw Chen Fei standing still, he couldn't help but be curious: "We work, what about you?" ”
Chen Fei looked up at the sky at forty-five degrees, posed in a weak posture, and stroked his forehead.
"I'm just a baby~"
Hu Kang......
Hudi ......
Wang Tian......
Several people played together to a big day, and for the first time they found that Chen Fei was so shameless!
Of course, Chen Fei was not embarrassed to really be idle and let the family work tirelessly to help him, and as a result, he took a nap in the shade of a tree, Chen Fei is not such a bastard person.
The three of them were busy watering, and Chen Fei was busy walking around the orchard, thinking about how to design the orchard.
Finally, he picked up a branch, found a vacant lot, began to write and draw, and planned his orchard.
"This is the peach tree, well, and that's what the time comes... This is a jujube tree, there is nothing ornamental, the chickens are raised here, and the ripe dates can be fed to the chickens when they fall, hahaha, I am really a genius! No way! Hell! ”
Chen Fei screamed and sat on the ground.
"Ghosts? Where the hell came from? Ah Fei, don't tell me, in broad daylight, where did the ghost come from? ”
Hu Didong looked west, scratching his head and looking cute.
There were also Hu Kang and Wang Tian on the side, staring at the picture Chen Fei had just drawn and scratching their cheeks.
"Ah Fei, what are you painting? Why can't I read it? ”
"Your sister! You demons! Why didn't you make any sound when you walked over, trying to scare me to death? ”
Chen Fei was furious, and went up and kicked his ass.
Maybe a few people have been used to playing since childhood, and they are not annoyed by Chen Fei's kick, they are still curious and staring at the things drawn by Chen Fei.
Chen Fei's eyes rolled slightly, and he smiled, thinking about it.
"Do you know how to chop wood and make a fence?"
"Will... Will it be a little, right? Hu Di couldn't help but feel a little weak when he saw Chen Fei's sympathetic smile.
"Why do you want to do some more work? If you pick two buckets of water, you can get ten catties of peaches and three catties of plums, and your conscience is a little dark~"
..............
Chen Fei admired himself more and more.
Since the last time he met those powerful people, Chen Fei suddenly found that he had opened his mind.
I used to live too honestly, but now it's finally time to show my wisdom.
The two brothers of the Hu family plus one Wang Tian were constantly fooled by Chen Fei, and in a month's time, they actually helped Chen Fei's orchard build most of the fence, and it was also surrounded by wattles to prevent anyone from climbing in to steal the fruit to eat.
Of course, Chen Fei was also very busy during the month, busy cleaning up and taking care of the orchard.
Several trees that were about to die were finally brought back to life under Chen Fei's rescue, and small shoots emerged from the branches.
The woods are no longer cold, and a few chickens "cluck" leisurely wandering the fields, occasionally catching a small bug and stuffing it into their mouths.
"Ah Fei, I feel that your orchard seems to have changed, but I can't tell where the change is."
Chen Fei smiled, the orchard has indeed changed, it seems that everywhere you go, you can feel a lot of vitality, I believe that it will not be long before this orchard will bring a lot of income to your family.
"Hehehe, yes, there has indeed been a change, thanks to you, if you didn't help me do these jobs, my father and I don't know when to get it."
Wang Tian rolled his eyes and complained, "Are you embarrassed to say it?" During this time, we are busy, you are basically lazy under the tree, I don't care, when your peach tree bears peaches, you must give me a few more peaches. ”
Hu Kang and Hu Di also complained: "That's it, you are too unrighteous, we do all the work, you are good, you play the piano and sing under the tree every day, the life is leisurely, but it hurts us, and the peaches must share a few more of us!" ”
"Done! Peaches can give you a few more, but..."
Chen Fei had a familiar smile of compassion on his face.
The three of them were taken aback, they understood that every time Chen Fei showed such a smile, it would not be a good thing.
"It's not too early, my father's pork shop still needs me to help take care of it, I'll leave first." Wang Tian casually pinched a lie and ran away.
Hu Kang and Hu Di glanced at each other and hurriedly said, "Ah, there is still soup at home, I have to go back and take a look." The two brothers also left in a hurry.
Gas! I haven't said anything yet! Why did these people run away?
Chen Fei jumped to his feet angrily: "A bastard who doesn't pay attention to righteousness!" Running so fast! ”
