Chapter 33: Inquire about the experience
She saw it yesterday, and the eldest sister is also very interested in this matter, and it must be right to find the eldest sister.
Meng Shan smiled and nodded, "Okay, it's Tiankuo's grandfather's family, let's just ask." ”
That is, Gu Pingyong's family, the Gu family is still living well, more than 100 acres of land, Gu Pingyong and Gu Pingzhang brothers are not separated, but this land is planted separately, and the family has more than 50 acres, which is a lot in the village.
Gu Pingyong's brain is spinning fast, and he wants to make money everywhere, so he went to find silkworm seeds and came back to raise silkworms and sell silkworm cocoons, but he didn't make a name for himself, and he didn't do it later.
In their own impression, this grandfather doesn't seem to be very easy to get along with, and when they asked him today, maybe they would have to touch his nose.
But it doesn't matter, she knows the steps of raising silkworms, and asking them is just to find a name, otherwise how to explain that she can raise silkworms?
The Gu brothers lived separately, but the two courtyards were next to each other, Siqi and Meng Shan arrived at Gu Pingyong's house, called the door outside, and soon someone came to open the door.
The person who came to open the door was a girl, named Qiu Ling, Gu Pingyong only had one son, Gu Zeshun, this is Gu Zeshun's second daughter, who is fifteen years old this year, and Meng Shan is almost the same age.
The children of the Lin family are close to the children in the second room of the Gu family on weekdays, so they are not close to the big house of the Gu family, after all, they have enmity.
Siqi said, "Sister Qiu Ling, we have something we want to ask grandpa, is it convenient to go in now?" ”
Qiu Ling opened the door and let them in, and in the upper room, Gu Pingyong was not very happy to see the two of them, these two girls had never come to their house, what were they going to do today?
Yun smiled and took out some snacks and put them on the table, "It's rare for you to come, eat quickly, you're welcome." ”
Meng Shan and Si Qi didn't make a move, they thanked with a smile, Meng Shan didn't like to speak, and she didn't have much courage, if it wasn't for Si Qiti today, she wouldn't have thought of coming over to inquire.
At this time, she finally came to her senses, she should let the adults in the family come, is it inappropriate for them to come?
Siqi didn't have stage fright, and after thanking him with a smile, he said, "Grandpa, grandma, my eldest sister and I came here today to ask you about silkworm raising, and you have raised silkworms in the village." ”
When Gu Pingyong heard this, he smiled, "Your Lin family also wants to raise silkworms?" ”
Siqi said, "We are young and don't work in the fields, so we want to earn some money to supplement the family at home on weekdays, so that the family can live a better life." ”
Gu Ping was happy, and when he thought about it, he could see that there was some ridicule in that smile.
She was not angry, and continued, "We don't understand how to raise us, so I thought about asking for advice, can grandpa tell us?" ”
Gu Pingyong didn't take it seriously at all, and waved his hand with a smile, "If you want to know, I'll just say it, but this silkworm breeding is troublesome, our family didn't figure out a way before, and you children are too nonsense." ”
Siqi smiled, "Let's just give it a try, after all, the family is not having a good time, unlike the grandfather's house, where you don't have to worry about food and clothing." ”
Siqi knows too well the character of a person like Gu Pingyong, you praise him like this, admit that he is not doing well, not as good as him, he is as happy as something.
Sure enough, Gu Pingyong laughed and told them everything he knew.
Leaving from Gu's house, Siqi happily took Meng Shan's hand and said, "Now that we know, we will ask grandma for some silver when we go back, and go and get the silkworm seeds back, now we have to start preparing well." ”
Meng Shan nodded and said with a smile, "Thanks to you just now, I couldn't say a word in front of others, if it weren't for you, I would have really run for nothing today." ”
Siqi smiled, "Eldest sister, you're just too shy." ”
The Gu family, the Yun family said very worriedly, "Old man, just told them about the method of raising silkworms?" We spent money to learn the craft. ”
Gu Pingyong said with a nonchalant face, "What's the big deal?" Anyway, I can't raise it, haven't we all tried it? After a large number of deaths, I don't believe that a few of their children can raise silkworms. ”
Yun nodded, "That's true. ”
When he came back from work at noon, Siqi hurried to find Wu and told him about it.
Wu smiled and said, "Our son is really an anxious child, and the matter was done so quickly, since you have gone to inquire and come back, then grandma will follow you and buy silkworm seeds for you, but you still have to let the adults go to this matter, you yourself will not, let your father go to the town in the afternoon to find out, there are two or three in the town that sell silkworm seeds." ”
Si Qi thought that this season should be the time to get silkworm seeds, there should be no problem, and nodded, "Okay, Daddy will go buy silkworm seeds, and we will clean up the house where silkworms are raised at home." ”
Wu said, "Our house is small, and there are some things piled up in the ear room next to the upper room, but you can pick them up, but you have to work hard to clean them up." ”
Siqi hurriedly said, "We will definitely clean it up." ”
Now they also have something to do in the afternoon, the most important thing for raising silkworms is the environment, silkworms are very delicate, if the house is too dirty they will not survive, at this time there is no way to use ultraviolet light to kill the virus, can only be cleaned, and then smoked with vinegar.
In fact, the method that Gu Pingyong told them was very simple, and many details were not mentioned, but it was good to think that he had learned about silkworm breeding in his previous life, otherwise he would really be blind at this time.
She recalled the steps of raising silkworms, and was very confident in this matter, if the climate is suitable, she can raise them about three times, and she should be able to increase her income a lot in a year.
There are a lot of mulberry trees in the village, but their ear room is not big, and a few children are afraid that they will not be busy, so Lin Changyuan is only going to buy a silkworm seed back.
In the afternoon, the adults went to the ground, Wanrong took Zichen, and Mengshan took a few younger sisters and began to clean up the silkworm room.
"Eldest sister, the silkworm room must be cleaned up, I think the silkworms are so delicate, if the house is too dirty and dusty, they will definitely not survive, we have to clean it well."
Meng Shan nodded and said with a smile, "Okay, let's clean up a little more and serve these little guys well." ”
First take all the things that are not used in the house to another place and put them away, and then start cleaning, Siqi also wiped the walls and floors with water to make them look clean, and finally lit a fire and smoked them with vinegar.
Under the current conditions, disinfection can only go so far.
