234. The thoughts of the uncles
These silvers have been kept by my father's mother, and I should have saved a lot of them over the years.
Although they were really curious about the power of their niece, when they thought of the results after trying, the uncles decisively let go of the thoughts in their hearts, these trees can be regarded as a cornucopia of the family, and they must not be destroyed.
My father and mother are now interested in planting some more apples and pomegranate trees in their brothers' yards, which are not only delicious but also very popular.
They are still very excited when they hear it, their father is already very experienced in serving fruit trees, they are not afraid of planting badly, and when the time comes, they will learn more from their father, and they will always see the benefits in a few years.
The area of the backyard of their brother's house is not small, if they really want to plant, they can still plant a lot of trees, and the front and back yards add up to at least 20 or so fruit trees in the family.
It's just that good fruit seedlings are too difficult to find, and it is rare to see fruit saplings sold here on the border, and these pomegranates at home are still met by my father when I went to the county, and my father decided to buy them all back, and two died during the period.
Thinking about this was a little frustrating, even if they had the idea of planting fruit trees, it would still be difficult to implement them for a while without saplings.
The pomegranate trees at home have sprouted some new sprouts, and they have been temporarily transplanted by my father and mother to the backyard and carefully cared for, and when they grow stronger, they will be distributed to their brothers.
There are not many fruit tree saplings, and a family can only rotate a few, which is still too few, but it is better than nothing.
The uncle looked at the pomegranate tree in the courtyard and saw that it was already full of fruit similar to his fist, although he was curious about his niece's statement and a little bit unconvinced, but he still didn't dare to let his niece try it, and he really let his niece pull it out, and he couldn't find a place to cry.
Wei Tian secretly glanced at the direction of his father, and said to his niece seriously: "Little Qi! These fruit trees are your grandfather's favorite trees, and you don't dare to pull them up. ”
Xiao Qi saw that what his uncle said was serious, and the other two uncles also echoed it, and couldn't help laughing.
The uncles are too tendonous, she just said that she could pull up the tree, not that she really went to pull the tree if she had to take action!
"Haha...... Look at the uncles are scared, the uncles are so funny, I'm just making an analogy, Xiao Qi also knows that these fruit trees are the favorite of grandparents and grandparents, how can they hurt it? Xiao Qi said with a mischievous smile on his face.
Hearing this, the three uncles breathed a sigh of relief, it's good if you don't pull it out, it's good if you don't pull it out, "Naughty ghost, uncle still thinks you really want to pull it out, look at how serious you looked at the tree just now." ”
"Where? I'm trying to exaggerate the atmosphere and increase credibility, doesn't my uncle believe it? Xiao Qi stared at his apricot kernel eyes and said a little tsundere with a face.
"Fortunately, you didn't mean that, otherwise your uncle wouldn't have found a place to buy fruit trees to compensate your grandfather." The eldest uncle patted his chest exaggeratedly.
For what his niece wants to do, he really can't refuse it, and in the end it will only be himself.
Hearing this, Xiao Qi was a little strange, "Uncle, is it difficult to buy fruit tree saplings?" ”
"It's hard to buy" The eldest uncle nodded firmly, with some helplessness in his tone, and the other two uncles also nodded helplessly.
Xiao Qi looked at his father puzzled, his daughter's gaze made Lu Zhongshou show a warm smile, for his daughter to find his father if he had something, Lu Zhongshou said that he enjoyed the process very much.
Knowing what his daughter wanted him to solve, Lu Zhongshou said: "Your uncles are right, the fruit tree seedlings here are really hard to find, mainly because there are too few people who grow fruits on a large scale, most of them are planting one or two at home, even if the fruit trees send out a few saplings from the side, there are very few that can be thought of selling, after all, a few saplings can't be sold at any price, either shovel them or give them away." ”
"Another point is that the temperature here is too low, generally at home to plant fruit trees are left to fend for themselves, many fruit trees are half-dead after a winter, and if they do not recover in the next year, the fruit will not grow well at all, and the fruit that does not grow well will not sell at any price, and everyone will not be enthusiastic about planting fruit trees."
Hearing what his father said, Xiao Qi could understand that the farmers really didn't care about this, and it was better to grow more food on the land with so many kinds of fruit trees.
Fruit is dispensable for them, but food is essential.
Their minds are all on their own land, and they are concerned about being able to serve the crops in the field well, produce more grain per acre, and let them have a full stomach.
"But even so, it won't be like there are no fruit saplings sold." Xiao Qi thinks this is too exaggerated.
Although they are only a town, there are many villages around, and there are a lot of people every time I go to the town.
"It's not that there isn't, it's just that it's rare, it's hard to come across it, and you can't just run to town all day without doing anything to buy a fruit sapling." Lu Zhongshou smiled and touched his daughter's hair.
"Do uncles want to buy fruit saplings too?"
The reason why Xiao Qi asked this was because he noticed the helplessness of the uncles just now when they were talking.
"Yes! I went to the town many times in the spring, and even went to the county, but I didn't meet it. ”
Hearing her uncles say this, Xiao Qi thought that she should understand, and her uncles probably wanted to earn some silver by planting fruit trees.
Xiao Qi heard grandma say that the pomegranates and dates at home can earn some silver every year, which is no worse than grandpa and their carpentry.
The uncles' ideas were really good, Xiao Qi ignored the strange eyes of his uncle and father, stood up and walked to the pomegranate tree on the side, and observed carefully.
Grandpa's pomegranate tree was indeed well served, the leaves were green and there were no insect eyes, and the branches and leaves of the trunk were clearly pruned.
Although it is not yet harvest season, these pomegranate fruits are already very large, not much different from the fists of adult men.
Presumably there will be another increase in size at the end of the month, Xiao Qi remembered that every year his uncles would send some pomegranates to his house, the pomegranate skin is yellow and red, the pomegranate seeds are sweet and sour and indeed very delicious, such fruits can indeed be sold at a good price.
His eyes narrowed to the cousins and nephews who were surrounding his grandfather, and Xiao Qi vaguely understood why his uncles had plans to plant fruit trees.
The youngest of these cousins is also more than ten years old, and the eldest is a year older than his eldest nephew, and they are studying together in the academy.
Together, these guys are a lot of expenses just to marry a daughter-in-law and build a house.
A few grandchildren study together, and it is estimated that the amount of money that can be left in each family is also limited, and the grandfather's fruit trees are indeed very good, maybe it is really a way for them to get money.
Xiao Qi squinted his eyes and looked around his uncle's home, and knew in his heart that the uncle's family had no other land to use except for the family, and the only place where fruit trees could be planted was the backyard, so he couldn't use the land to grow food to plant fruit trees.
The yard of the uncle's backyard is less than an acre of land, and it is divided into vegetable gardens, chickens, ducks and pigsties.
Everyone knows that the fruits in the border areas are very expensive, and even the price of fruits in the town is not inferior to the price of refined grains, or even more expensive.
Not to mention the county, the price is two to three times that of the town, if you want to earn more, you can go to Fucheng, but the road to Fucheng is too far, and there are too many uncertainties in the middle, so it is not stable in the county.
