Chapter 128: Old Mother Green Fox
The three of them barely ate a few bites of food in a busy day, so Su Zhi accompanied Li Zheng and a few old people to drink and eat some.
As soon as the guest left, the three of them didn't pay attention to anything, folded all the leftovers that had not been served into a pot, and ate around the pot.
Qinghu went to the warehouse to load a plate of oil fruits, and a plate of fried meatballs and came back: "I didn't let them be energetic, and I left half a large basin, enough for us to eat for a few days." ”
Yue'er laughed at him as a chicken thief, and reached out to grab and eat it.
After eating, Qinghu drove Yue'er into the house: "The newcomer doesn't work for three days, the countrymen pay attention to this, you go in quickly, I'll clean it up." You go and sort out the things that the people in the village have given you and see what they are all for. ”
Yue'er laughed at him: "How do you look like an old mother?" ”
Qinghu doesn't care if she smiles or not, the old mother is the old mother, but she is poor and scared these days.
Su Tong was a little drunk, dragged Yue'er into the house and planted it on the kang, not wanting to move at all, just looking at Yue'er and smiling: "It's good, you are really my daughter-in-law." ”
The two hugged each other on the clay kang of this adobe house, and the past waves of life seemed to have been forgotten.
Hold one person in your arms, keep a lifetime of stability, and spend a lifetime of human past!
……
(The above six points are the first time for the two of them on the wedding night, please make up for it by yourself~)
On the three days of the wedding, Qinghu didn't let the two of them do anything, he was busy working inside and outside the house, and he was idle in the yard humming a small tune and tinkling the bell to repair farm tools.
As soon as the three days passed, Su Tong put on a mule cart, Qinghu drove the car, and the family of three went out to find a place to open up the wasteland.
Su Zhi knew that there were people in Beishan Village who had dealings with the old man Yang Er, so he said in the village that he wanted to buy those acres of fireworks land.
A few days later, the second old man Yang came, and he talked at Lizheng's house for a long time, and collected 15 taels of silver from them on six acres of fireworks.
Yue'er has been distressed, and her little face is wrinkled: "Now I have spent all the money in the family, and my man has to go to the mountains to die." ”
Li Zheng's daughter-in-law came out to comfort her: "Fortunately, your man can hunt, and others can't even think of these lands." ”
Su Tong still refused to give up, and asked Li Zheng with a very shallow look: "Uncle Li Zheng, how much silver do the two house numbers behind my house cost?" I went into the mountains two more times to buy the house number. ”
Li Zheng thought for a while and replied: "Two taels of silver a piece, if you want two pieces, give me a total of three taels and halves." ”
"Then when I buy it, I will invite Uncle Li Zheng to drink."
He said as if he would have silver when he entered the mountain, and Rizheng smiled and nodded and sent the couple out the door.
Yue'er was distressed and annoyed, and this little fire was sprinkled on Su Tong's head: "Into the mountain, into the mountain, why do you think about entering the mountain every day, it's spring, it's time to think about picking up the land, don't go into the mountain, and I don't want that room number." ”
"Daughter-in-law, I want that room number because I want to move my home back, and it is convenient to take care of it closer to our house. When the current house is sold, won't the money come back? Let's clean up like this, ten taels of silver will be low, and I have to sell twelve taels. ”
Yue'er glared at him angrily: "It's like that vacant land doesn't need to be built with silver, is twelve taels enough to build such a big house?" ”
Su Tong was about to say that I would go into the mountain a few more times, but when I thought that my daughter-in-law would always scold him because of this matter, I didn't dare to mention it.
When he got home, Qinghu was collecting hay in the vegetable garden, and when he saw the two of them coming back and putting the rake aside, he washed his hands by the well and beckoned: "This rice is in the pot, hurry up and wash your hands and eat." ”
There is a green fox at home, and she is a virtuous mother-in-law, and Yue'er complained to him after washing her hands. Qinghu comforted her for a while, and several people gathered around the table to eat.
At the dinner table, Qinghu asked: "Master, I bought six acres of land, and we can't open the barrenness?" ”
Su Tong said: "Since I want to open it, I am thinking about opening a few acres of paddy fields to see if this rice can be grown." ”
Qinghu said: "Then if you want to plant, you have to buy rice seedlings and raise seedlings quickly, and you can't wait until all the seedlings are finished." ”
"Okay, then you go to the town tomorrow to buy rice seeds, and when you come back, you can raise seedlings on the two kang shops where no one lives."
Yue'er is a pasta lover, after all, she grew up in Guanzhong, and when she heard them talk, she said: "You two look at the rice, and I say that I have to plant wheat for everything." At least three acres of wheat are planted on the six acres of dry land now. ”
At this time, there is no doubt that there are no fertilizers and pesticides. So what is the yield per acre of wheat in this case? In terms of the unit of measurement at that time, one mu yielded more than one stone of wheat, and then milled into flour was less than one stone.
And one stone in this era of the Great Yu Dynasty, converted to the current unit of measurement, that is, one hundred catties. That is to say, an acre of wheat comes out with eighty or ninety catties of flour, well, don't think about it, it's all whole wheat flour.
According to 80 catties per mu, three acres of wheat will produce 240 catties of flour, and there will be three people a day.
This is not enough for Yue'er, but fortunately, they want to plant rice, and then they will have polished rice production at home, and they will not worry about mixing some coarse grains this year.
Su Tong also agrees with Yue'er's plan to grow wheat, not simply because he spoils Yue'er, but because he eats well, he can't often go to the town to buy it, which will enter the eyes of many people.
The next day, Qinghu went to the town, bought all the seeds that the family needed, and when he came back, he told Yue'er about the planting and care methods he had heard about when he bought the seeds.
The carpenter's tools that are available at home cut the tree they have cut down are cut to the right length, and they are taken to the carpenter's shop and broken into boards with a large saw.
The green fox deliberately broke some short planks and came back, just waiting for some useful items to add to the house when he was not busy.
With Su Zhi and the others, they nailed the broken wooden planks into several long wooden boxes, sifted the black soil in the garden, and mixed them with rotten manure. Sprinkle all the sprouted rice seeds into it, and Yue'er carefully takes care of the temperature.
The two men took turns going into the mountain, and each time they went in, they didn't stay long, and they came back in two days at most. The meat in this house gradually increased, and the family couldn't do without people and couldn't sell it in the town, so Yue'er was at home either to make salted meat, or to make jerky, and to save it for when there was nothing to eat.
From time to time, I have to carry it to the house, and I can't do it more, but it's always right to move around less often.
Su Tong didn't let Yue'er do heavy work, but every time it was his turn to go into the mountain, Yue'er would clean up the vegetable garden with Qinghu at home.
also secretly asked Qinghu to teach her some kung fu, especially horseback riding, uh, riding a mule, she really wanted to learn, but there was no chance for the time being.
After another set, Su Zhi took the money he exchanged for to find Li Zheng and bought the house number. But he didn't plan to build a new house this year, which was still too eye-catching.
In the pigsty in the backyard, I bought two little piglets in the first month, and at this time, Yue'er felt that this piglet was growing day by day, and she was beautiful every day!
