Chapter 32: The Bamboo House is Built
"Grandma, you say, let's take the pig lungs and pig intestines made today and sell them in the town, will anyone buy them?" When he was sleeping that night, Huang Yiyun asked Huang Li.
Now the Huang family has built a house, and there are two rooms on the left and right in the hall, one is Huang Li and Huang Yiyun, and the sixth and fifth sisters are led.
In the other room, Huang Liu slept with the second sister and the third sister.
Outside the hall, there are two wings on the left and right, one for the aunt and uncle, and the other for the fifth and seventh brothers to sleep in.
What Huang Yiyun knows is that in this era, no matter where the pig is put in the water, it is very fishy, not to mention not delicious, and there is a strange smell in the entrance, so the pig is very cheap, and it can't even be sold, it is chopped and cooked for livestock to eat.
"Eldest sister, this pig's large intestine and pig lungs are so delicious, our family will sell them in the town, and they will definitely be sold." At this time, the fifth sister, who had not slept yet, swallowed her saliva.
"Why don't we wait for our family to finish busy, take it to the town and try it and see if it works." Huang Li was also a little moved.
"Yes, when our family is done with things, we will take it to the town to try." Huang Yiyun was more focused on the cinnamon and star anise.
I don't know if the pharmacy in this era didn't have the two spices of cinnamon and star anise, or didn't find that cinnamon and star anise could be cooked and eaten.
Maybe the next time you go to town, you can ask at the pharmacy.
In the next half a month, after the soil embryos raised by the Huang family were dried, they began to stack the soil embryos according to the painted walls, and then painted them with mud lime grass and wood, and glued them together to enclose the walls.
After the wall was fenced, the Huang family went up the mountain non-stop to cut bamboo and build a big shed.
Huang Conghe took Huang Liu, the eldest sister, the second sister, the third sister and the fourth brother to take the firewood knife and rope, and walked to the bamboo forest one by one.
Huang Yiyun Niang cut a few bamboos, that is, after Huang Conghe carried them home, Huang Li took Huang Jiang's fifth sister, sixth sister and seventh brother around the painted ground, dug small pits, and then buried Huang Yiyunniang's cut bamboo, and then tied them tightly with ropes one by one.
After the hut was built, it was a wasteland, which had to be weededed, turned over and fertilized.
Thankfully, there is still a lot of time left before the winter ends, and these things can be done slowly.
By the time these things have been done enough, it is already July.
The sweet potatoes planted in the Huang family's two acres of dry land, under the careful care of the Huang family, the survival rate of planting is as high as more than six layers.
And during this time, the Huang family also cleaned up their family's acre of paddy field.
As long as you have fertilizer, you can sow the fertilizer, and when you wait for the next spring, you can plant the seedlings.
"Eldest sister, look, how is the layout of the big shed like this, uncle plans to plant beans and cucumbers here, and the vines need to be attached to the growing shelf, and uncle has already made it, here, uncle plans to plant spinach, peppers, eggplant and cabbage, eldest sister, what do you think?" Huang Conghe is a restless character, after the big shed was built, he turned over the weeds and broke the soil, and also planned out the inside, and divided the land piece by piece.
The channels are outlined one by one.
And also fenced the small courtyard in the front yard, all of which were fenced with bamboo chips, not to mention.
I went up the mountain and cut down a lot of trees, finished the gate of the Huang family, and created a set of tables, chairs, wooden cabinets and other things that needed to be placed in the room.
Uncle is skillful, and when he was helping in the town when he was in his hometown, he learned a little carpentry work from others, and the furniture in the house was made by the uncle, which saved the Huang family a lot of money.
Huang Yiyun saw that there was a narrow place in the middle and at the end, which Huang Yiyun had said before, which was used to place the iron furnace for charcoal fire to ensure the temperature in the shed.
Huang Yiyun estimated that Wenfu City is between the north and the south, and it is not as cold as the north in winter.
"Uncle, it's done, there is no soil yet, add fertility to the land, and after raising the soil a few times, we don't have to wait until winter, our family can sow seeds in advance." Huang Yiyun nodded.
Although the uncle is honest and honest, he is very meticulous in explaining his things, and he is a diligent person.
After hearing that Huang Yiyun wanted to raise soil, he hurriedly coaxed, "Uncle, let's go dig a pit and make fertilizer." Eldest sister, you say, where is it more appropriate to dig the pit of our manure? ”
"Now the backyard occupies a lot of space for the big shed and chicken coop, and the manure is so smelly that the pit for the manure is dug outside the fence on the left." Huang Yiyun thought for a while.
Manure is the accumulation of human rice and livestock poop, and let it ferment naturally to form fertility.
It is used to water the field, increase the fertility of the field, and when the time comes, provide enough nutrients for the sown crops, which can increase the yield.
"Uncle, let's go dig a pit." As soon as Huang Conghe heard that he had determined the place where the manure was made, he hurriedly picked up the hoe and walked out.
"Uncle, it's noon now, and the sun is blazing outside? Let's rest for a while, and when the sun is not so strong, let's go out to work again!
Also, uncle, the eldest sister wants you to help me make two things, these are these two, do you think? Huang Yiyun asked Huang Conghe while talking to Huang Conghe, holding a wooden stick in her hand, drawing what she needed on the ground.
"Cheng, uncle, I'll do it for you." Huang Conghe gestured twice.
However, Huang Yiyun asked Huang Conghe to make something, one is a funnel-shaped long bamboo tube, thick at the top and thin at the bottom, and there is a notch that seals the exit below, this thing is called a ground cage.
In addition, he also asked his uncle to make a bamboo tongs, but Huang Conghe made some uneven lines on the two rows of bamboo tongs.
In the last one, Huang Yiyun asked Huang Conghe to make a long bucket, the top of which was made of cloth bags.
Fishing buckets are generally used to catch dragonflies, insects, frogs, and the like.
Uncle's craftsmanship is excellent, and after only two days of spare work, he made the three things that Huang Yiyun requested, which were much better than she imagined.
After the three things were made, Huang Yiwu couldn't wait to try them.
"Second sister, fourth brother, fifth sister, sixth sister, let's go, eldest sister will take you to play." After Huang Yiyun took the cage, he beckoned the second sister a few times.
"Big sister, what are you doing going out so late today?" Huang Liu asked.
"Mother, isn't my daughter looking at how many things my uncle made for my daughter, my daughter is looking at whether these things are useful, if they are useful, maybe they can improve the food for our family, and make money?"
"Eldest sister, how can you make money? The second sister goes. When the second sister heard that she could make money for herself, she immediately said.
"The fourth brother will go too."
"And me, I'll go too."
