Ziqing packed up her things and wanted to go to Baitang Village with the Shen family to have a look, Lin Kangping was naturally not at ease and wanted to go with her.

Early the next morning, the two put down the things in their hands and handed over the house to Xiaoqing Xiaolan, Shuyan has been for more than five months, and he can eat some rice cereal custard, as well as goat's milk, etc., Shurui doesn't have to worry about it. Ziyu knew that he would go with him, because of Lin Kangping, and the Shen family also agreed, but he also asked Ziyu to wear old clothes.

Because he was in a hurry, he didn't take the big road in Anzhou, Lin Xing drove the carriage to a village called Xujia halfway through, and then there was a creek, a ridge road and a mountain road, and he couldn't pass the carriage, he could only walk, Ziqing hadn't walked this road for many years, but he still remembered that Zixi fell from the wheelbarrow to the field, more than ten years have passed, the mountain is still this mountain, the field is still this field, and the little girl who walked to the ridge is now the mother of two children, Ziqing can't feel emotional.

Several people rushed to the village, the He family lived in Shen Jianshui's house, the house where Shen Jianshui lived was built by Ziqing's grandfather before he died, and Shen Jianshan lived in the ancestral house, He was willing to guard the house when her husband died, Shen Jianshan couldn't do it, fortunately, the two families were only front and back houses, which was also convenient.

Shen Jianshui's family only Shen Jinfu's family stayed by his side to farm, and when Ziqing arrived, only Ziqing's second uncle Zhao and third daughter-in-law were at home, one was decocting medicine, the other was watching the two children, and the others were all in the field and rushed to plant seedlings.

He was lying in the house, the room was already dark, the window of the old house was so small, it was still the kind of wooden fan window that was propped up with a wooden stick, and it was an old-fashioned stepping bed, even if the big copper hook hooked the tent, he couldn't see He's eyebrows clearly, only to see a lying body, Ziqing's tears fell first.

"Qing'er, why are you here?" He Shi recognized Ziqing first, and he had to lean up, but Ziqing hurriedly stepped forward to help He Shi lie down.

"It's okay, why are you all here? I just didn't take care of myself. It's just typhoid fever, I kicked them out, it's time to do things and do things, just raise them for a few days. Who informed you of the troubles? Ho said.

Ziqing listened to the old man's throat, seemed to be a little gasped, and hurriedly asked, "Grandma, what did the doctor say?" Does it matter? ”

At this time, Shen Jinfu's wife, Luo Shi, came in with the medicine and said, "Grandma's medicine is ready." It was the prescription prescribed by my father and the doctor that my father invited from Anzhou, and the medicine that I grabbed from Anzhou. I've been eating it for two days, but it doesn't have much effect. ”

Shen took the medicine, personally fed He to drink, and was just about to speak, when Xu came over, saw a few Shen and hurriedly asked, "When did my sister come?" ”

Shen stepped forward to say hello, and Ziqing also said hello. Xu sat on the edge of He's bed and asked, "Does my mother feel better today?" Is there anything you'd like to eat? ”

He shook his head, and Xu said, "It's not as good as that." Let San'er go fishing for a few crucian carp and drink some fish soup? ”

"Will it be delayed?" Ho asked.

"Look at what my mother said, as long as my mother wants to eat, I'm not afraid, how much effort can I have?" Xu Shi got up after speaking.

"Sister, I first told Wanfu to get a few crucian carp, you sit down first, and go back to my house to eat, I am ready to prepare, your second sister-in-law has a lot to do. The grandson is small, and he has to decoct his mother every day. Xu said to Shen.

Shen said: "Sister-in-law, hurry up, let's go over and have a look in a while, the eldest brother has also gone to the ground, right?" ”

"No, I'll go find him in a moment." Xu finished speaking and left.

Ziqing sat on the edge of the bed, and He leaned on the big pillow. said: "It's not a big deal, don't worry, your eldest aunt sends two bowls of vegetables every day, your second uncle decocts medicine every day, and there are people waiting for me." ”

Shen also sat down, took He's hand, and said, "If my mother feels better, I'll pick you up and go to my place for convenience." My mother also helped me take a look, and the junior is about to get married. ”

"Okay, I'll go when I'm better. Qing'er, if you have that honey, bring me some. ”

When Ziqing heard this, she hurriedly said: "Grandma, I know, go back and send someone to bring you some, what else do you want to eat?" ”

This time, Ziqing and Shen came over, and only brought some noisy pastries to He's, a basket of duck eggs, a piece of pork, and some red dates and longan.

Ziqing saw that the sun outside was not bad, so she wanted to help He come out to bask in the sun, so she ventilated the room, Lin Kangping hugged He out, Ziqing prepared a chair under the wall, spread a layer of mattress, Shen helped He comb his hair in the sun, and used a grate to help He go through his head, this scene of mother and daughter filial piety has not dispersed in Ziqing's heart for a long time.

After returning from Baitang Village, Ziqing sent people to deliver things and say hello twice in three days, until He was able to go to the ground in ten days.

He's illness is cured, and the wheat in Kangzhuang is about to ripen, Lin Kangping said, and there are still three to five days before the harvest can be made.

Ziqing listened to it and had to take a look, to be honest, she had long been worried about the improvement of wheat seeds, hybridization would definitely not, however, Ziqing remembered that wheat and rice were both top crops, just pick out the wheat with the longest ears of wheat, keep it as seeds, and slowly improve it, this Ziqing can't remember where she saw it, anyway, corn seeds Ziqing picked those big and full seeds, last year's yield was higher than the year before, and this year Ziqing also plans to plant a summer corn to try.

Lin Kangping took Ziqing into Kangzhuang, that large area of golden wheat fields, swaying in the breeze, although not like Ziqing in the last life of the rice ears bent over, even if this year's yield is lower, there are 200 catties of wheat, that is also a relatively considerable number.

Ziqing carefully observed, it is true that some wheat ears are long, some are short, and there are also accidentally left wheat seeds on the ridge of the field that have also grown wheat ears, this kind of wheat stalk is not long, and some wheat ears are not short, Ziqing told Lin Kangping to collect seeds first, how to collect seeds, Lin Kangping listened to Lin An's instructions, and children under the age of ten in Kangzhuang are responsible for collecting seeds, and they start harvesting after picking seeds.

Ziqing only then knew that Kangzhuang had built a small mill, Lin Kangping said that it was the meaning of the foreman, rice, wheat, corn, soybeans in the future, rapeseed, sesame and everything else needed a mill, and what could not be eaten in the Zhuangzi could be opened a shop to sell out, and the finished products could be sold more than the raw materials, not to mention that Kangzhuang itself also needed to eat.

"By the way, didn't you say you want to make noodles to sell? This is not right, the eldest girl in the village is fifteen years old, let Huang Pozi take a few girls to do it, and the girls can't do too much work. Lin Kangping said.

"But no, this time you thought of me, how many people are there in the Zhuangzi now?" Ziqing asked.

Lin Kangping glanced at Lin An, and Lin An said: "There are thirty-two cousins in the two rooms of my grandmother's house, except for the four foremen and two mothers-in-law, there are twenty-six people left, sixteen men, the oldest is eighteen years old, the youngest is eight years old, ten women, the oldest is fifteen years old, and the youngest is six years old." ”

"Can the wheat harvest be busy? Do you still need to hire people? Ziqing asked.

"The foreman said that he would do it first, and if he couldn't pump the forest wind from the forest, and the forest would be prosperous, he would do farm work. When the time comes, it's too busy to hire again, and it's the same. Lin An replied, he also knew his grandmother's rules, he paid for working alone, and he didn't want to cheapen outsiders.

Lin Kangping thought for a while and said: "It's better to call Wang Tieshan, I see that he has several of you alone, and Lin An also has the strength to take a hand." ”

"There are lazy and slippery people, who are good at beating, and those who can't beat them out, or sell them, in short, you can't break the rules because of one or two people." Ziqing said.

"Grandma, there is one thing, I want to tell grandma, that eighteen-year-old offspring, named Wu Daniu, wants to marry fifteen-year-old Ah Tao, grandma sees this?" Lin An asked.

"Although it is said that the fertilizer and water do not flow into the fields of outsiders, but the girls of the people are also willing, and the cows that are forced to press do not drink water, this matter must be asked what Ah Tao means, even if Ah Tao agrees, he must be sixteen years old before he can get married." Ziqing said.

"This is natural, everyone is used to being together, so naturally we know whose character it is, and I'll ask Ah Tao what he means when I go back." Lin An replied.

"Also, after getting married, my family cooks and eats, rice and vegetables are received from Zhuangzi, each person is rationed every month, and the rest of the person is subsidized with a string of money." After Ziqing finished speaking, she asked Lin Kangping if he had anything to add.

"I can't think of it for a while, it's the same when I think of it, and it's not like getting married in a day or two." Lin Kangping said.

Lin An saw that there was nothing to do with him, so he went to tell the little girl and the little boy to prepare a basket to collect seeds.

Ziqing turned from the wheat field to the paddy field, wanting to see how the acres of coconut white grew, the leaves have grown very long, a little like a reed, wider than the leaves of the reed, the roots can already see the thick parts, it seems that it will not be long before it can be picked.

"Our Kangzhuang can basically achieve self-sufficiency, in addition to not weaving cloth, not making salt, seasoning or something can be grown by yourself, in the future, as long as there is no war, everyone can live a stable life."

Lin Kangping listened and held Ziqing's hand tightly, and said: "No, what we ask for is only eight words, the years are quiet, and the present world is stable." ”

When the husband and wife returned home, they met Baofeng's mother-in-law and grandmother-in-law who came to receive the ingredients at noon, and the grandmother-in-law tried it for two days, Xiaoqing and Xiaolan said that they were good, although it was not as good as what Mrs. Wang did, but after all, Mrs. Wang was making a small stove, exquisite food, and their meals were half made by Xiao Zi, and Xiao Zi's big pot of rice was not as good as Mrs. Sun's, so everyone ate quite satisfied.

When Ziqing saw her, she thought of Baofeng and asked, "What is the head of the Baofeng family busy with?" ”

"In the past few days, I went to Anzhou City to find a short-term job, no, Baofeng should also be born, there should always be a few dollars in my hand?" Grandma Sun said.

"In this case, my family will start harvesting wheat in three days, so it is better to ask him to come over and help collect the wheat, thirty wages a day, and three meals." Ziqing asked, mainly because he felt that more than 200 acres of wheat relied on a dozen or so good laborers, how long would he go?

The grandmother left with a thousand thanks. (To be continued.) If you like this work, you are welcome to vote for recommendation and monthly passes, and your support is my biggest motivation. )
