Chapter 113: Transplanting Tea Trees (Three Watches)

Since buying these 20 acres of barren mountains, the days of Lian Jia have become colorful all of a sudden, every day at dawn, Cui'er and Lian Qingshan will clean up the chickens, pigs, and rabbits at home, and then the family has breakfast, and then drive the small ox cart around in their own mountains.

Lian Qingshan took Cui'er and the big girl Xiaohu to sit on the ox cart, walked around the east and west, touched the mountain one by one, and then added a few strokes to the hand-drawn simple map, such as hazelnut trees on this mountain, chestnut trees on that mountain, fruit trees here, grass growing there, and so on.

After four or five days, the family turned the hill almost over, and there were a total of fifteen hills in their own twenty acres of hills, except for the small hillside where the family is now building a house, there was also the Rose Valley and another hillside with a lot of wild fruits, which were very suitable for human habitation.

Among the fifteen hills, two of the hills have a lot of peach and apricot fruits, and three of the hills are full of walnuts, chestnuts, hazelnuts and other dried fruit trees, but the rest of the hills have no characteristics, high and low, or overgrown with weeds and trees, or overgrown with thorns, etc., and it is still a little difficult to use them.

"Let's take advantage of the fact that it's not yet winter, let's pick up the mountain first, didn't you pick tea tree seeds on the tea mountain? Let's try to plant some tea trees? Lian Qingshan and Cui'er sat on the kang together, with the drawn mountain map in front of them, and listed the plans for the mountains and forests discussed before one by one, wanting to see what to do first and then what to do.

"Okay, just plant tea trees!" Lian Qingshan's opinion coincided with Cui'er's, "The fruit trees on our mountain are bearing fruit, and they can't be moved now, and those dried fruits, I don't know which ones taste good and which ones don't, so let's remove the tea trees on the tea mountain first." ”

"That's right, I see that the tea trees you planted are growing well. Let's take advantage of the fact that the weather is still good, so we will move the planting first, and when it is almost winter, these tea trees will also take root. Lian Qingshan nodded again and again. We can still try more peaches or something now. Keep everything that tastes good, and if there is something that is really unpalatable, cut it down and replant it. Lian Qingshan added with a smile, I only feel that the days are very rushing.

"I heard that there is a trick to use an ordinary trunk to connect the branches of delicious fruit trees, and raise them with that ordinary trunk, and the fruit that will bear will be the delicious taste." Cui'er remembered the seedling grafting in her previous life, and only felt that the days were getting happier and happier. I can't wait to try it right away.

"And this?" Lian Qingshan pondered carefully for a long time after listening, and then nodded vigorously, "Let's try this after we finish the tea tree, there are still some days before autumn, just try it." ”

It was decided to transplant the tea trees. After breakfast the next day, Cui'er and Lian Qingshan drove the ox cart up the mountain.

Originally, this matter should have been done quickly by Lian Qingshan and Lian Qinghe, but because this tea picking and roasting tea is an important source of income for the Lian family, Cui'er and Lian Qingshan pondered for a long time, and they were still a little worried about telling him about it, so they took the child to the mountain by themselves. A family of four is self-reliant.

There were a lot of tea tree seeds, but Lian Qingshan and Cui'er agreed that it was more efficient to transplant tea seedlings, so they dug out the newly sprouted tea tree seedlings under the old tea trees, wrapped the roots of the tea trees in soil, and stacked them neatly on the ox cart with sacks.

"Aoyama. Which mountain should we transplant our tea seedlings to? Cui'er saw that more than 30 small seedlings had been transplanted on the car, but it didn't seem to be on any mountain, so she couldn't help but ask.

"Just put it on the dirt slope next to it, which is surrounded by mountains. In winter, the wind is not too strong, so it should not be too cold. Lian Qingshan wiped the sweat on his head and said.

"Okay, then I'll dig seedlings here, and you go there to open up the wasteland?" Cui'er looked at a cart of tea saplings, thinking that if she left the soil for too long, she would dry up, so she couldn't help but urge anxiously.

"Don't worry, don't worry, these dozens of seedlings will be planted for a while!" Lian Qingshan looked at Cui'er's anxious appearance, and said with a smile, he really didn't take this little bit of work seriously.

"Okay, then listen to you." Seeing that even Qingshan was so sure, Cui'er's original feeling of anxiety also faded, looking at the seedlings next to the old tea trees had been almost dug up, but there were only about forty seedlings in total, Cui'er couldn't help but sigh, "This tea tree seedling is still too few, or I'll go back and try it, plant this seed, and see if I can raise seedlings." ”

"Okay, try, if that's the case, we'll have as many tea saplings as we want, and how many tea saplings we need!" Even Qingshan nodded again and again when he heard this, he was also worried about this tea sapling.

"Okay!" As he spoke, Lian Qingshan had already dug up the last few tea saplings and put them in the car, looked at the sky and it was still early, and looked at the sweat of the big girl and the little tiger playing with the fortune, so he said to Cui'er, "Cui'er, you take the big girl and the little tiger to take a bath here, and I will come back to pick you up after planting the tea saplings." ”

"Take a bath here?" Cui'er was stunned when she heard this, and suddenly remembered that the hot spring she had seen before came, and although the weather was hot now, it was also extremely pleasant to take a comfortable hot bath.

"How busy are you going? I think we'd better go together, and when we come back later, I'll wash you and the two children first, and then you help me keep a little guard, and I'll wash it again. Cui'er said, thinking that she would soon be able to take a hot spring happily, and her heart was very excited.

"Good!" Even Qingshan was not happy to be separated from his daughter-in-law, so he agreed to come down and recalled the big girl and the little tiger who were running crazy in the forest, and the family of four plus three small pets walked to the side hillside lively.

When she arrived on the hillside, Cui'er saw that this place was very good, so she helped Lian Qingshan to open up the wasteland and plant tea trees. There were a lot of weeds and small shrubs growing on this hillside, and Lian Qingshan had to dig up the small shrubs by the roots, then pull out the weeds, and then clear the large stones before he could plant tea trees in this place.

This work, Cui'er naturally refused to let Lian Qingshan come to see it by herself, no, Lian Qingshan cleaned up the small shrubs in front of her, and after the roots were dug out, Cui'er piled up these cleaned things next to her in the back. Wait for the sun to dry these things, and then take them home and light the fire.

"Big girl, there are many dangers on this mountain, you have to help your mother and brother. You know? Cui'er said as she sorted out the rattan wrapped around the small bush.

"Mother, I want to help with the work too!" Hearing this, the girl hurriedly raised her head and said to Cui'er seriously, leaving behind the black sky that she had eaten vigorously just now.

"Want to work?" Cui'er looked at the girl's serious little eyes, and couldn't help but smile slightly, "Okay, then the mother will arrange tasks for the girl!" "Hmm, what's the arrangement? Cui'er really didn't want these seven or eight-year-old children to do any work, but seeing the big girl so positive, it was not good to discourage her interest.

"Big girl. Come, you see that after your mother has cleaned up the small trees or something, there are still a lot of stones on the ground, and you are responsible for helping your mother to put these stones together in a pile, and it will be used to surround the tea garden or something in the future. Cui'er looked at a few small rocks on the ground. Then his heart moved, and he arranged a task for the girl.

"Good! I'll help my mother move the stones! When the big girl heard that Cui'er had a task for her, she was as happy as if she was something, her little face was flushed, and she quickly stood up and walked to Cui'er's side, and without saying a word, she was about to start moving stones.

"Wait, there's a very important task to be done...... Cui'er deliberately dragged out her voice. Seeing that when the girl heard the important task, her eyes immediately lit up, and Cui'er couldn't help but laugh in her heart.

"The most important task of the eldest girl is to help her mother take care of her younger brother, take care of the fortune and reunion, so that her father and mother can relax and work hard. Did You Know? ”

"Okay, mother, don't worry!" The big girl responded with a smile, as if she wanted to prove her words, and hurriedly walked to Xiaohu who was standing and eating on the side, and reached out to hold Xiaohu. Then he turned around and took his brother to pick up stones.

"The big girl is really good, take good care of her brother!" Seeing this, Cui'er nodded with satisfaction, turned around and went to move the bushes again.

Lian Qingshan, who was digging the land in the distance, was working in full swing, and a large area of ground behind him had been dug up by the roots of small shrubs and everything. His movements are very fast, the back of wielding the hoe, as if he is dancing some weapon, and there is a faint pattern in the natural coordination, which makes Cui'er feel very pleasing to the eye.

While admiring Lian Qingshan's back, Cui'er cleaned up the shrub he left behind, while the big girl who followed Cui'er happily took her younger brother and picked up stones.

The eldest girl is very happy about this arrangement, and she is helping her father and mother to open up the wasteland with her younger brother, this kind of recognition makes the eldest girl very proud, and she is busy running around, but it is quite like that.

The family of four has been busy for an hour, and they have opened up a vacant land of thirty or forty square meters, wiped the sweat on their heads, and Lian Qingshan took the water bowl handed by Cui'er, raised his head and drank it clean. Seeing that this place seemed to be enough, he said to Cui'er, "You rest for a while, and then I'll pick up this place, and then we'll plant the tea seedlings." ”

"Okay, you can rest for a while, we will definitely be able to finish it today, don't be tired." Cui'er instructed as she took the water bowl.

"I know, don't worry!" Lian Qingshan said with a smile, and then picked up the hoe and dug out round pits about a foot on the ground, while Cui'er took down the saplings from the ox cart, put them into the pits one by one, and then filled the soil carefully.

"I don't know what fertilizer to use for this sapling, I'll ask when I get back, and we'll chase the second fertilizer for the sapling, it should be about the same." Lian Qingshan dug twenty pits, and when he looked back, he found that Cui'er followed him closely, and there were only two or three pits that had not been planted with saplings.

"Listen to you, let's pour some water today, and then go back and top dressing." Cui'er responded with a smile, and just when she wanted to say something more, she suddenly heard Xiaohu crying, and she was suddenly shocked, and rushed in the direction of Da Niu and Xiao Hu.
