Chapter 404: Planting Cotton (Five Watches)

"Wait a minute, I'll come when I go." Yao Raspberry stood up in a panic, hurriedly returned to his room, and when he came back, he had a few more paintings in his hand, "This is the pattern I painted." ”

"It's very realistic!" Ye Sanniang lowered her eyes and looked at the pattern and admired, "This dew drops seem to be falling, which instantly makes the picture vivid and moving." ”

"I only paint these flowers that I can see, the most common ones are the moon season and roses." Yao Raspberry looked at her regretfully and said, "It's like peonies, orchids, and narcissus, I haven't seen them before." ”

"I don't see much of these, so let's paint what we see around us, born in the countryside, and paint what we can observe up close." Ye Sanniang put her index finger to her lips and thought about it, "We have a collection of poems in our house, which contains scenes or idyllic poems, which are very picturesque." For example, two yellow orioles singing green willows, and lonely boats can be painted. ”

Yao Raspberry looked at her with shiny dark eyes when he heard this, and said, "This is good, I also know how to read and write, and I also practice drawing." ”

"Yes!" Hearing this, Ye Sanniang looked at her softly and said, "I'll find out the poetry collection for you when I go back." ”

"Thank you, Aunt Ye." Yao Raspberry stood up happily and saluted.

"This kid, what are you polite to me?" Ye Sanniang looked at her with crooked eyebrows and said, "Okay, let's get busy!" He handed her the painting in his hand.

"Can these be embroidered by Sister Dangui?" Yao Raspberry took the pattern and asked.

"Of course!" Ye Sanniang nodded with a smile and said, "You drew very well." ”

"Then I'll give Sister Dangui in the future, and they will draw tricks." Yao Raspberry's eyes were shining, and he said energetically.

"About drawing me......" Ye Sanniang pointed to the painting on her lap and told her some things about the storyboard script, adding storytelling and watchability!

Yao's raspberry mouth grew into an O-shape, "You can still draw like this!" ”

"That's right!" Ye Sanniang looked at her with a smile on the corner of her mouth and said, "Don't worry, think slowly!" ”

"Yes!" Yao Raspberry responded crisply, took the painting, got up and blessed himself, "I won't bother you." ”

Ye Sanniang watched her leave with a smile, then got up and went to the backyard, found two poetry books, and turned back to Yao Raspberry.

After the cotton seeds are dried, soaked in water and sown, they are sown.

In later generations, the cotton seedlings were raised early, and transplanted into the ground at the right time.

Now the conditions do not allow it, only sowing.

As the saying goes: jujube sprouts and grows cotton!

In the evening, Ye Yanxing and the others came back from the academy, changed into short brown, put on a straw hat, and bent down to sow seeds in the field.

"Mother, what if it doesn't come out?" Ye Luoxing raised his head and looked at her who was planting seeds not far away, and said with innocent eyes.

"No seedlings are replanted!" Ye Sanniang chuckled and said.

"That's right!" Ye Luoxing smiled stupidly, "I'm really afraid that it won't come out." ”

"How is that possible? This kind of child is carefully selected. Ye Sanniang looked at him lightly and said, "Wait a few days, it will definitely be brushed, it will be green, it looks good!" ”

"My mother loves cotton so much, don't let us down." Ye Luoxing folded his hands and prayed.

"It won't disappoint you, it will replace sackcloth in the future." Ye Sanniang looked at him with crooked eyebrows and said, "It will be planted all over the north and south of the Great River, inside and outside the Great Wall." ”

"I'm going to have to keep track of its growth." Ye Luoxing's bright eyes looked at her and said.

"Good! Keep track of its growth, the challenges it encounters along the way, such as pests and diseases. Ye Sanniang's eyes lit up when she heard this.

"Does it still have worms?" Ye Luoxing looked at her in surprise and said.

"That's right! This wheat still has worms! All kinds of pests and diseases cause different degrees of yield reduction, or even no harvest. Ye Sanniang gritted her teeth and said, hating those damn insects.

"What if there's a bug?" Ye Luoxing said worriedly.

"If there are bugs, catch them!" Ye Yanxing said casually when he heard this.

"That's not endless, and some of them are very small." Ye Sanniang shook her head slightly with a smile when she heard this, "On a hot day, bending over in the wheat field, it is even harder than now, and I can't straighten my tired waist." ”

"What then?" Ye Luoxing looked at her anxiously and asked.

Ye Sanniang's crystal-clear and pure eyes looked at them and gently spit out two words, "Kill insects!" ”

"You don't have to use people! Is there any difference with catching insects? Ye Yanxing straightened up and beat his lower back, and after a while, he felt that his waist was not his own.

"Your waist is uncomfortable!" Seeing this, Ye Sanniang's deep black eyes looked at her and said, "Go back in a while, I'll press it for you." ”

"Hmm!" Ye Yanxing stretched his waist and said.

"I feel like my waist is almost gone." Ye Luoxing twisted his body and said.

"Where does the kid get his waist, don't say waist." Hearing this, the kite hurriedly said.

"Why? Obviously, there is. Ye Yanxing rubbed his waist and said.

"I don't have a waist, because I'm afraid that the child will die." Oribe looked at them with deep eyes and explained.

"Oh!" Ye Sanniang chuckled and shook her head when she heard this, "Then we won't talk about it, let's not talk about it." ”

"Mother, you haven't said it yet, what is the difference between killing insects and catching insects?" Ye Yanxing looked at her with curious eyes and asked.

"Catching insects, you can only catch them with your hands, this insecticide, spraying potions, is killing one by one." Ye Sanniang's deep and translucent eyes looked at them and said.

"Potion?" Ye Luoxing looked at her puzzled and asked, "This person is sick and drinks medicine, can it kill insects?" ”

"Everything is mutually reinforcing, and this insect also has natural enemies." Ye Sanniang looked at them with starry eyes and said.

"Predators?" Ye Luoxing's eyes turned slightly, pondering, pondering, and suddenly his eyes lit up and said, "Put chickens, put ducks, they eat insects." ”

"Little fool." Hearing this, the kite shook his head and said with a smile, "If you put the chickens and ducks in the field, it will be like a mouse falling into a rice bowl, and the food will not be saved." ”

"Ahh Ye Luoxing scratched his head when he heard this, "We can't kill insects with medicinal water!" ”

"It's easy, look for it in the book!" Ye Sanniang said briskly.

"Have I opened the agricultural book?" Ye Yanxing looked at her dejectedly and said.

"Little fool, and medical books!" Ye Sanniang looked at him tenderly and said.

"Do medical books still care about killing insects? Isn't it a cure and a salvation? Shen Ruyi looked at her suspiciously and said.

"Look for it! Absolutely. Ye Sanniang's eyebrows were raised lightly, revealing her beautiful eyes dyed red by the sunset, looking at them and saying.

I didn't conjure it up for you.

The tenant farmer who sowed seeds with Ye Sanniang looked at her and asked a little excitedly, "Mrs. Ye, can you really kill insects?" ”

"Yes!" Ye Sanniang looked at them with glass-beaded eyes and said, "It's just that you still have to look for it, and if you find it, you have to test it." And that takes time. ”

See you at 8 a.m
