Chapter 25: Remarriage of a Divorced Male Wife 22
After the Chinese New Year, Yi Yunqing came to Siyu and asked them if they wanted to farm? When the Yi family was exiled, the saint gave the Yi family ten acres of sandy land in Taoxi Village, Siyu asked Lu Ming, Lu Ming thought about it for a while and said that he could plant! Lu Ming drove the ox cart, pulled Siyu, Lu Yuan and Lu Ya, went to buy a plow and a rake, and the four of them went to Taoxi Village. Yi Yunqing took them to the Yi family's sandy land, which was uncultivated all year round, and the ground was overgrown with weeds.
Lu Ming ploughed in front, Siyu followed behind to pick up grass, and it took five days for the two to finish plowing the sand, picking up the grass, and after plowing, Lu Ming and Siyu went to the mountain to basket some dead branches and leaves to scatter into the ground. After the two were busy, Siyu wanted to plant corn in advance, Lu Ming said that it was too early to plant corn, the solar terms were wrong, and it was okay to plant it now, but I was afraid that the corn would not sprout!
In the blink of an eye, in April, Lu Ming and Siyu went to plant corn, five acres of corn, three acres of peanuts, one acre of soybeans, half an acre of red beans, and half an acre of Siyu planned to plant watermelons. Look at the harvest, the harvest is good and varied, go to the grocery store on the street, only to know that the watermelon here is called green-skinned red heart melon, not that no one has planted it, the melon is white, not sweet, not to say, and a little sour. Generally, ordinary people buy a few seeds and plant them for their children to eat, and Siyu buys a lot, and the grocery store shopkeeper also persuaded her. Seeing that she didn't listen to persuasion at all, the grocery store shopkeeper had to tell Siyu that he was not responsible for paying him! Siyu joked that if it was planted, he would send two to him to try it! The grocery store shopkeeper only told jokes and agreed with a smile!
The watermelon seeds were bought, Siyu was busy cultivating watermelon seedlings, and after the seedlings grew, they were planted in the sand, and after planting, Siyu took a little well water from the space and poured it on the watermelon seedlings. And while I was watering the corn, peanuts, soybeans, and red beans, I poured some water from the well in the space, because now the corn, peanuts, soybeans, and red beans had sprouted and grown.
In May, Siyu knew from the original book that there was about to be a big drought, and 9 reminded Yi Yunqing to prepare more food and herbs, Yi Yunqing was smart and immediately knew Siyu's subtext. I bought something and put it at Siyu's house, and I took it back a few times, and sure enough, half a month later, after a little light rain. The temperature slowly rose, and after a week, the paddy fields cracked, and the crops in the fields were half dead by the sun!
Lu Ming and Siyu also moved to Yi Yunqing's old house, which is convenient to take care of, the temperature remains high, and the water that people eat is a problem, let alone watering the crops, and the public well in Taoxi Village restricts carrying water every day. From the beginning of a family of five to a family of two, some people have more people who have not enough water at all. The food in the village gradually decreased, and the atmosphere became more and more tense, at this time Yi Yunqing proposed that he could go hunting in the mountains, for fear that the villagers would fall on the Yi family.
The village chief promised to go hunting in the mountains, which also reassured Yi Yunqing that the drought would not fall on the Yi family, and Lu Ming took the lead, and the villagers walked into the deep mountains that they had never stepped into before. Fortunately, the people in the village can rely on the mountains to eat the mountains, and although there are not many prey hit, the villagers are still very happy, and they finally don't worry about eating. After hunting for a while, the prey in the deep mountains slowly decreased, and the temperature remained high, and at this time there was news that the neighboring town had been robbed by homeless people. Yi Yunqing mentioned to the village that the village could send people to patrol, so the villagers in the village patrolled in three pairs, and if they found something abnormal, they immediately reported it!
