Chapter 61: Rice Blossom Ten Miles
In a blink of an eye, when the rice is ripe, one season of rice raises one season of ducks, and the big ducks have long been transferred home in batches to raise according to the instructions of the Zhou family.
Although the ducks raised with the Zhou family in the peasant association were not like the Zhou family, fishing nets were placed around to prevent the ducks from running away, but they had their own methods, such as those fixed with bamboo or wooden strips, and the more elaborate ones were fenced with fences, and now they have been dismantled.
As soon as the sky was bright, the air was mixed with the slight coolness of the night, and a group of people came from outside Pingshan Village, which Bai Jianran solemnly brought people over to inspect in person.
"Quack", everyone can go to the rice fields of Pingshan villagers, but a few ducks are still shuttling through the green rice rows, constituting a beautiful picture of calm and tranquility, "Last time I came, I didn't pay attention to these ducks!" ”
Bai Yitian wondered: "What's wrong?" Is there anything wrong? He looked up and down a few times around, and there was nothing wrong, but when he looked up and saw his father's expression, he understood, and said: "There are fewer ducks in the fields in the south, and there are more ducks in the rice fields north of the village," he said, and quickly followed his father and became a tour guide and commentator, "However, now that the ducks are all bigger, they have long been put away." ”
Bai Jianran bent down to look at the heavy rice in the field, "Why is this?" He glared back at his son and asked, dissatisfied, "Didn't you say that ducks don't eat rice?" "It is because of this that the Zhou family's rice field duck raising is covered with a veil of mystery.
Bai Yitian couldn't help but laugh, his father seemed to pay more attention to this matter than he imagined, and his concern was chaotic, he smiled and hugged his father, and said casually: "It was also discovered by the Zhou family first, this duck is too big, and it will eat the ripe rice by mistake, so you need to harvest the duck before the harvest." ”
After the Mid-Autumn Festival, the weather is getting cooler day by day, but a young boy like Bai Yitian is still wearing a single dress when he is strong, and the autumn wind blows Bai Yitian's hair, which makes him a little chic and uninhibited.
nodded, I could see that this Zhou Bo was not an idle person, and it was really good.
Standing in the field, the field of vision is extremely broad, comfortably inhaled a breath of air with earth, the autumn breeze is cool, and it is more cool and pleasant, looking at the scene of the autumn harvest, Bai Jianran and his son are in a different mood, and they feel that the rice flowers are ten miles fragrant!
He was very happy in his heart, thinking that his son had such a friend, it was finally reassuring, and then looking at his son's radiant and handsome posture, he had a little smile and pride on his face, and happily walked forward with his son's cheerful footsteps.
"Father, is he relieved?" Bai Yitian rarely saw that his father was in such a good mood, and couldn't help but joke: "My son has always been worried about this matter for my father." ”
Bai Jianran spat on him, looked at him for a while, frowned and said: "When the son's worries are shared for Lao Tzu, he still asks for a reward?" ”
Bai Yitian sighed, and said helplessly: "My son is just thinking a little bit about it, and his father guessed it!" ”
Bai Jianran snorted and scolded: "Poor mouth! He scolded like this, but the smile on his face couldn't be broken.
This father and son have always been strict and filial to their fathers, and it is rare to laugh like this, and for a while, even the faces of the county and others have a smile.
The father and son talked and laughed like this, pointed to the rice fields, and took everyone to talk and watch.
"The grass people are waiting here for the arrival of the county magistrate!"
Bai Jianran looked up, and there was a group of people kneeling next to the ridge, and the number was really considerable.
He was stunned: "This ...... Folks, please get up! ”
The county didn't wait for him to signal, so he hurriedly helped Li Zheng up, "Brother, it's cold on the ground, get up quickly!" Then he motioned for everyone to stand up and speak.
Li Zheng was excited, two days ago after receiving a notice from the county, he immediately convened a general meeting of all villagers, although he repeatedly emphasized that everyone should treat this matter calmly, do not hinder the office of the Bai County Order, but he himself can not calm down, it is really the Bai County Order is coming!
Just now, I saw the county order and his party approaching from a distance, and the villagers knelt on the ground with him.
Pingshan Village is a small mountain village, the county order is the existence of the god level, the county Cheng and others pulled everyone up one by one, and in the end, the county Cheng sighed helplessly: "Don't be nervous, I heard that our Pingshan Village has a bumper harvest of rice this year, and the county commander is to take me and wait to learn the technology of raising ducks in the rice field from your neighbors!" After listening to the county, Bai Jianran waved his hand, looked at the Li Zheng beside him, and kept nodding his head and said: "You Li Zheng, think about what the people think, and be a model for the county!" ”
He admires such a small official who is sincere for the people, without any pretentiousness and intrigue in the officialdom.
"Lord County Order," Li Zheng's identity is just the smallest and smallest mile long, not even a formal official position, and now Bai Jianran, who is famous for Dashun, is praised in public, he suddenly burst into tears, couldn't help kneeling, and said sincerely: "This is what a villain should do, it should be!" He didn't wait for Bai Jianran to open his mouth and continued: "The villain is ashamed to praise the adult! ”
The folk customs are simple, the villagers are friendly and friendly, in fact, the requirements of the farmers are not high, and everyone is very satisfied when they see that the harvest is in sight.
"Good! Good! Bai Jianran didn't allow him to kneel, and hurriedly helped him and said: "Don't take credit, don't invite rewards, it's the example in the middle of the middle!" ”
The county turned around and said to the villagers: "Our adults came to Pingshan Village in person this time to inspect the rice field and raise ducks, I hope that all the villagers and neighbors will not hide their secrets, so that these successful methods must be spread for the benefit of the people of Dashun, at that time, you will all be the heroes of the Dashun country!" The county is here, thank you for our neighbors! ”
The villagers next to him saw that this person who moved Dashun was so modest, and heard that he would also become a hero of Dashunguo, at first they were stunned, and their faces were puzzled, and then slowly someone wanted to understand, although it was a little far away, but everyone wore this hat happily, and couldn't help but get excited.
Li Zheng hurriedly nodded in agreement: "The hero doesn't dare to be a hero, but everyone can talk about the method of raising ducks in the rice field, and everyone can talk about it." ”
First someone hummed and opened their mouths, and then someone tried to make a start.
"There are many benefits to raising ducks in rice fields! Ducks forage in the field, not only to hunt insects, but also to kill weeds. ”
"The ducks shoveled back and forth, and they reaped moisture for the rice fields and ventilated."
"The duck dung is thrown in the field, and it adds fertilizer to the field."
Standing at the head of the field, pointing to the green rice fields, the villagers talked happily.
"Lord, please see, my rice field has light insects, few grasses, and good growth."
"Me too, my family has a small population, and I used to be worried about pulling weeds, but this year I can save a big thing."
"Master, you give me the math, this is less to cure insects, save grass, harvest more rice, the ducks are rented, now the big ducks are sold, just return the original ducklings of the Zhou family, how much silver does this have?"
Those in Pingshan Village who did not join the peasant association also wanted to draw a scoop according to the gourd, but they couldn't do it, but they were eaten by ducks and rice seedlings, and later there were also bad intentions, and they wanted to secretly scourge the surrounding rice fields that entered the peasant association, but those people in the Self-Defense Forces took pork for nothing every month, and they never caught a wolf or a thief. Crops are the lifeblood of farmers, and they were almost killed by everyone that night, and the next day they were directly blasted out of Pingshan Village by the joint decision of the whole village. For a while, the prestige of the Zhou family was even greater, and those who complained about the Zhou family were frightened.
Bai Yitian followed behind his father, looked around without a trace, and secretly praised in his heart, sure enough, this peasant association has a great role, it is not a slave, it is just dependent, both sides benefit, and they are united!
Bu whispered behind him: "Childe, this week's eldest young master looks lukewarm, and he is really smart!" ”
Bai Yitian glared at him: "How is Brother Bo, can you evaluate it?" ”
Without sticking out his tongue, he knew that he had spoken too much, so he hurriedly covered his mouth.
Talking nonsense, he opened the topic: "Look at the old man today, he is in a really good mood!" ”
Of course, the surrounding villagers are in a better mood, and now even the county magistrates have praised this law and want to promote it throughout the county, so isn't Pingshan Village going to be ahead of others? When I came back to string relatives, I had a lot of face on my face! and the villain in the village, he didn't dare to jump out and sing against the stage.
This festive atmosphere is getting stronger and stronger, and everyone is elated, so Bai Jianran's eyes are full of smiling faces, listening to all the words of harvest, and the mood is even more comfortable.
While speaking, Li Zheng said: "If you don't think you are shabby, I hope that the county will appreciate the light and dine in the house!" ”
But Bai Jianran shook his head and refused, he had a group of more than a dozen people, and the small Li Zheng family was not worried? Let's go to Zhou's house, not to mention that the Zhou family's house is huge, not only there are many wings for lunch breaks, but also the benefits of the Zhou family's Zhenwei Zhai, he knows, not to mention the Zhou family's Xuejian, it is estimated that Xu Cong'an, who went directly to the Zhou family without getting out of the car, was forced into the kitchen.
Xian Cheng and the others also thought of Xue Jian's cooking skills, their eyes lit up, and their legs automatically moved in the direction of the Zhou family.
The clerk asked Li Zheng to help find a few really experienced and knowledgeable old farmers, go to Zhou's house together, and chat while eating. He still has to make records, this is an important plan for the county's farming next year!
Li Zheng also understands people, and with the invitation of the county order, he followed to Zhou's house, because there were many people, so he simply moved to the big table in the side courtyard to eat together. Bai Yitian happily got rid of his father, only went into the hut with Xu Cong'an, and let him come in with a meal without a word.
Zhou Bo asked people to invite the third uncle and the fourth uncle to accompany him, and the uncle was stained with the light of his nephew, and he was able to eat in the same courtyard with the county commander, and his face was full of face, and he was even more energetic.
Originally, Bai Jianran also insisted on having fun with the people and everyone to dine in the courtyard, but under the persuasion of the county Cheng, he found that everyone was very excited, and he resisted restraint, but he couldn't eat well, so he stopped insisting and called Li Zheng and a few prestigious old people in the village and Uncle Zhou to enter the house together.
In the kitchen, Xue Jian commanded everyone to be busy without touching the ground, plates of fresh vegetables, fat duck meat, spicy hairy blood, chicken stewed mushrooms, etc., and there was actually a dish of sour and hot gourd shreds, so that everyone couldn't talk anymore.
