Chapter 54: Quail Rice
As soon as Cheng Linsheng said this, someone immediately followed suit.
Cheng Ma was the first to jump out shamelessly: "It is said that distant relatives are not as good as close neighbors, Cheng Er, how did you make your home and tell us, it is also your merit that everyone has money to earn, isn't it?" ”
The village chief couldn't answer this, so he could only look at Cheng Linchang.
Cheng Linchang himself was a big fool, and he didn't know how he started it, so he turned his head to look at Xianghua.
Xianghua could only cough and stood up and said: "To tell you the truth, our family has not made a fortune, and we have emptied our family by buying Xiaoqingshan." ”
"Nonsense! I saw Xianghua with my own eyes yesterday that you came back wearing gold and silver, and you were sent back by carriage! Cheng Sun said sharply, "There is also a big box, don't be full of silver!" ”
Her uncle and aunt are really good partners in stirring up trouble, and some lazy people immediately started to think crookedly when they heard it.
Xianghua said unhurriedly: "Do you remember the previous boss Qian?" ”
Some say remember.
"Boss Qian's niece is the owner of the Xiangmanlou in the town, and I am good friends with her, and she gave me those things."
Cheng Zhang rolled his eyes: "Empty mouth and white teeth, who knows if it's true or not." ”
Cheng Gang said: "I have seen that Miss Qian, when she came to the village to look for fragrant flowers, I brought her. ”
Cheng Gang is now the son-in-law of the village chief, and some people dare not say anything, but dare to whisper: "Who doesn't know that the orchid was a favor of Cheng Xianghua at the beginning, so it's strange if you don't help her speak." ”
Xianghua finished saying what she had to say.
"The reason why my family wants to take down Xiaoqingshan is not because my family has so much money that there is no place to spend it, but because the affairs of Honghe are not over yet."
When everyone heard the "Red River", they recalled the scene at that time, and gradually quieted down.
"If the river is not dredged, the threat of the Red River will always exist, and Qingshan Village may still be flooded. I took down Xiaoqingshan because I wanted to use Xiaoqingshan to make money to repair dikes and dredge rivers. ”
Anyone who knows the industry knows that just Xiu Dike, even if it is only this section of Qingshan Village, will cost at least a thousand taels, which is not something that can be said and played casually. Not to mention dredging the river, which is even more difficult.
Cheng Tiezhu asked: "There are also mines in Xiaoqing Mountain?" What treasure is there on the mountain that can afford to build a levee? ”
Everyone was also very concerned about this, and looked at Xianghua together.
Cheng Fugui came out and played a round: "Don't ask too much, you have ten taels of silver in your house, will you tell others where to hide?" ”
Xianghua thanked the village chief and stood up and said: "There is nothing bad about this, now our family mainly relies on quail eggs to make money. ”
"Quail eggs?"
Everyone, look at me, I look at you, everyone knows that quails are very difficult to raise. Not to mention quail eggs, there will be more quail eggs.
Cheng Dashu's daughter-in-law said: "Xianghua, no one in your hometown has ever seen quails raised in your yard." ”
Xianghua smiled slightly: "Yes, I didn't say that we raise quails in the yard, right?" Our family's quails are raised in the mountains. ”
Someone laughed and said: "If you say that you keep it in the mountains, isn't that just digging a bird's nest?" How many can you shell? ”
Donglin couldn't look past it, and spoke for his sister: "My sister is amazing, she can bring a lot of quail eggs back every once in a while!"
Cheng Gou Yu grinned: "Xianghua, it's not that you don't believe you, it's that everyone knows that quails are difficult to raise, could it be that you have any good ideas?" ”
Xianghua smiled lightly: "Quails are indeed difficult to raise, but it is not impossible, I will tell you this method now." ”
When everyone heard this, this fragrant flower was not stingy, and immediately shouted and asked, "What is it?" Speak up, talk fast! ”
Yan Gou listened carefully on the side, thinking that he was reliable, and he also caught a few quails to raise.
Xianghua said word by word: "Actually, the quail is fed for the first time, and it will be easy to say later." This first meal requires twelve taels of tender tea leaves in spring, tender lotus leaves in summer, new rice in autumn, and weed seeds in the field in winter. ”
Cheng Gou Yu asked: "The rest is okay to say, what do the weed seeds mean this winter?" ”
Xianghua said: "No matter what kind of grass you have, it is precious to be able to live in winter, and quails like to eat such grass seeds." ”
Everyone suddenly realized.
Xianghua then said: "Dry and grind these things, and mix them with twelve dollars each of the rain of the same year, the dew of the cold dew, the frost of the frost of the day, and the snow of the heavy snow, and put them on the mountain, and the quail that eats this will no longer be afraid of this man." ”
Everyone was stunned when they heard this, and clapped their hands and said, "This ...... How does this work? If it doesn't rain or frost that day, it may not be possible to make it in ten years! ”
Xianghua said: "I also heard people say home remedies, and I made it by chance, so you can try it if you have the heart." ”
Everyone looked at each other, and no one wanted to do troublesome things.
Xianghua continued: "My family will build a few houses on the mountain, some places will be fenced, those places please do not go in, cut down trees and hunt animals, there are nothing else, everyone can go to pick medicine and mushrooms." ”
When everyone heard it, they originally went up the mountain to do these things, but now Xianghua didn't say no, and it seemed like nothing for a while.
Cheng Lin Sheng felt that the "quail rice" that Xianghua said was ridiculous, and the others had no brains, so they believed it all.
Xianghua then introduced Yan Gou and Yun Niang.
"This man who used to work for the imperial court and was an expert in building houses, I specially invited him and his wife to come back, and in the future, my family's house and the embankment by the river will depend on him."
Everyone looked at this Yan Si Swenwen, as if they had some knowledge, and they were also very curious.
Cheng Linchang smiled innocently: "In a few days, our family will build a house, and we will ask you for help." Wages are calculated on a daily basis, and the accounts are settled. ”
Cheng Sun sneered: "Didn't you say that the family was wiped out? Can you still pay for it? ”
Xianghua smiled and said: "You can make it again when the money is gone, my quail is very diligent." ”
After the scene ended, Yan Gou and Yun Niang walked together.
Yan Gou said: "That Cheng Linsheng is not Xianghua's father's younger brother?" How can this man talk with thorns, and so does his mother. ”
Yun Niang shook her head: "A few years ago, when Brother Cheng was not there, Xianghua took her younger brothers and sisters to her uncle and aunt. ”
Only then did Yan Gou understand and asked, "Aren't you just here, how do you know so much?" ”
Yun Niang smiled: "Everyone has something in their mouths, just listen carefully." Let's go, let's go and help. ”
Because the Xianghua family really couldn't move the house, Yan Gou and Yun Niang could only temporarily live in the village chief's house.
According to the meaning of Xianghua, the house can be built with a few more rooms, so as not to be as tight as it is now. The place should be a little away from the quail and pepper patches but not too far away, and the surrounding area should be fenced off in harmony with the natural landscape.
