Chapter 132: Silkworm Baby

At the beginning of April, the rape flowers in the field have reached the curtain call, from the golden flowers, into a green pod, the pods, there are rapeseeds, and when the camellia seeds are ripe, you can harvest the sun, collect the camellia seeds, and then take them to the oil mill to squeeze the oil to eat.

The smell of rapeseed oil is very strong, and it is delicious to fry fried tofu.

However, Gao Mingcheng didn't plant rape this year, so he looked at the rape in other people's fields and was a little greedy.

Look at the mung beans, sesame seeds and peanuts grown in people's fields, well, even more greedy!

The greedy Gao Mingcheng continued to go home to carry a hoe and open up the wasteland!

Next year he's going to plant everything he loves to eat! Achieve self-sufficiency sooner!

When Gao Mingcheng was sweating and clearing the wasteland, many beauties came back on a bicycle, she rode directly to Gao Mingcheng's vicinity, and then toggled the bell.

Gao Mingcheng followed the prestige and saw many beautiful and smiling people riding on bicycles, one foot on the ground, and stabilized their bodies.

"Mingcheng, let's go to the mountains and dig up the mulberry trees back! It's planted right there! Duo Mei pointed to the eastern corner of the courtyard wall, where there happened to be a vacant lot, with no big trees on the top and no rocks piled up below, which was a good place to plant trees.

Gao Mingcheng was stunned, why did he suddenly remember to dig mulberry trees and come back to plant?

Many Mei Xianbao took out a cardboard box, opened it, and said to Gao Mingcheng: "What do you think this is?" ”

Gao Mingcheng walked over and took a look, and saw a few mulberry leaves in the cardboard box, and on the mulberry leaves, there were countless silkworm babies with very small heads, it seemed that it was estimated that it had just hatched a few days.

It's no wonder that many beauties suddenly wanted to dig mulberry trees, and it turned out that they came back with silkworm babies.

Duomei said: "The silkworm baby was given to me by my third sister, and she said that I would raise it, and after raising it, the silkworm cocoons can be taken to her side to sell, and someone will come to collect them." Said it was used to make silk quilts! ”

Many beauties said with infinite longing: "I asked, silkworm babies are very easy to raise, as long as there are mulberry leaves for it to eat!" When the cocoons are finished, they can be sold for a lot of money! I thought that there were mulberry trees in our mountains, but in order to facilitate silkworm raising in the future, I would simply go to the mountains to dig a few mulberry trees and come back. ”

"Okay!" Gao Mingcheng doesn't pour cold water on many beauties, she can raise them if she likes them, and it's not a big deal anyway.

The wasteland was closed for a while, so he took his hoe and went to the mountains to dig mulberry trees.

On a slope in the southeast of Niuwei Ridge, there is a large area of mulberry trees, some large and some small, growing quite densely, and in May every year, you can also pick some mulberries from there to eat.

But not all mulberry trees can grow mulberries, some trees grow tall, but they just don't bear fruit, the village elders say that this is a male tree, only the mother tree will bear fruit.

Duo Mei pushed the bicycle home, put the cardboard box on the table, and then hurriedly followed Gao Mingcheng.

After a while, the two of them came to the place full of mulberry trees.

Since you want to transplant it to your own home, you naturally have to pick a tree, and you have to choose a tree with a beautiful shape and lush leaves.

"That's it!" Gao Mingcheng pointed to a mulberry tree, and many beauties naturally didn't have any opinions, so they saw Gao Mingcheng wielding a hoe and starting to dig the soil.

When transplanting trees, it is best to bring roots and soil so that they can easily survive.

Gao Mingcheng dug a large bag of soil at the root of the mulberry tree, and the rest of the root system was broken by him with a hoe, and after transplanting, a new root system would naturally grow.

The vitality of the mulberry tree is very strong, and even if there is only one large root left, it can regenerate branches and leaves.

After Gao Mingcheng dug up one tree, he went to dig the second one, and when she saw this, she immediately went to pick up the mulberry tree she had dug before, and she planned to take it home first.

However, she underestimated the weight of the mulberry tree, which was not particularly tall, only a little taller than an adult, but it was quite heavy after carrying the roots and soil.

Gao Mingcheng saw that many beauties stumbled and almost fell, and immediately said, "Let it go, I'll just come." ”

A lot of beautiful faces are embarrassed.

She walked down the hill and said, "Then I'll go back and dig the pit first!" ”

She went all the way down the mountain, took a hoe from the utility room, and began to choose a place to dig a pit, and when the time came, when Gao Mingcheng got the tree back, she could plant it.

Although digging a pit is also manual work, many beauties have done a good job, and by the time Gao Mingcheng came back with two trees, she had already dug a big pit.

"Tuomei, get some fertilizer!" Gao Mingcheng glanced at the bottom of the pit, the soil here was loess, and it didn't look very fertile.

"Oh." Many beauties responded by going to the compost place to get some fertilizer and sprinkle it on the bottom of the pit, which is the fertilizer after rotting and fermentation, and will not burn the tree.

So many beauties supported the trunk of the tree, and Gao Mingcheng was responsible for covering the soil, and when he was done, he stepped on it a few times with his feet to make the soil more compact.

This second pit was dug by Gao Mingcheng himself, he wielded a hoe, dug out a pit of a suitable size in three or two clicks, and then with the concerted efforts of the two, two trees were successfully planted.

The two mulberry trees are not far apart, only about two meters, and after planting, they can be regarded as embellishing the scenery outside the courtyard wall.

"Howmei, you broke some branches and couldn't leave so many leaves on them, I'll go get water." Gao Mingcheng said, and went to the yard to fetch water.

He didn't go to the reservoir to fetch water, the well water directly poured into his house, the well in his house is really very good, the water is full every day, and the water quality is clear and sweet.

Sure enough, if people from several nearby villages want to dig wells, the first person who comes to mind is the people from Dalong Village!

This craft, there is nothing to say!

After watering the mulberry tree, the transplanting of the tree is finished, and the next thing is to wait for the mulberry tree to regrow roots and sprouts.

Tatsumi took the branch that had just been broken off and walked into the house.

These mulberry leaves are just right for the silkworm babies to eat.

"How beautiful, what are you going to take to raise silkworm babies? The carton is too small to be enough in two days. Gao Mingcheng said.

The silkworm baby develops very quickly, and now it looks small, and after a few days, it will be big.

When it comes to the growth season, it is really a day at a time, and it grows very fast.

Many Mei thought about it, and suddenly she really didn't find the right thing to raise, she looked at Gao Mingcheng dumbfounded, and her face was full of words, what should I do?

What else can I do?

Of course, it's to get a new home for the silkworm babies!

"How beautiful, I'm going to cook, I'll go to the mountains and chop some bamboo and come back." Gao Mingcheng took a machete and planned to enter the mountain again.

When he reached the gate of the courtyard, he remembered something again, and said, "I have caught some bullfrogs and put them in the kitchen, and if you don't know how to get them, just leave them and wait for me to come back and get them." ”

Many Mei quickly said: "You don't need to do it, I will do it myself!" ”

Killing bullfrogs is complicated to say, but for many beauties who grew up in the village, it is not a difficult thing to do, and she has also caught frogs to eat before.

Frogs, like bullfrogs, have delicate flesh and are delicious!
