Chapter 83: Digging Ginger
Xiang Tiange waved his hand excitedly, "It's a holiday, today is the Mid-Autumn Festival, let's dig up some ginger and sell it in the county, today's Mid-Autumn Festival, this ginger must be very good!" ”
Several people were very moved when they heard this, so they went to get their tools and went to the field where they planted ginger.
Because Xiang Saburo often brought his two brothers to water two days ago, the soil in this place was soft and easy to dig, Xiang Tiange didn't even use a hoe, two small hands grabbed a ginger seedling hard, and pulled it hard, and a large row of ginger under it was pulled out.
"What a big ginger!" Xiang Tiange was very happy, and handed the ginger he pulled out in his hand to Xiang Dalang, who was standing beside her, "Big brother, you take a sickle and help cut off the stems and leaves on it, this stem and leaf can pick out some tender ones, it is also delicious to use for cooking, we will also pull it to the county to see if we can sell it!" ”
Xiang Dalang took the ginger she handed over, and with quick hands and feet, he separated the ginger pieces and stems and leaves at once, and then put them in two dustpans.
"I see that this ginger grows a lot, so much ginger, can it be sold?" Xiang Dalang looked at the lush ginger leaves in the ground, and was a little worried.
Xiang Tiange waved his hand and said, "It's okay big brother, let's dig some up and sell them first, if it's not easy to sell, this ginger will stay in the ground, let it grow for another two years, it can grow into old ginger, and then we can go to the medicine shop!" ”
Xiang Dalang ignored her, they all planned to graduate from the school at the end of this year, and when they came out, they planned to find something to do, the money that this kind of ginger sold was just enough for them to show their skills, if they sold it for another two years, then what would they do at home in the past two years?
The county's bookkeeping work isn't so easy to find?!
Xiang Tiange only pulled out the ginger for a while, and then Xiang Tiange followed the sixth brother and the seventh brother to the side to play, leaving Xiang Dalang and a few people to continue to pull the ginger in the ground.
As for asking why you don't use a hoe to dig, of course, it's because digging with a hoe will dig rotten, which doesn't look good, so you can't sell it.
Xiang Dalang saw the piece of ginger that was dug up, and decisively asked his brothers not to use hoes, and directly reached out and pulled it out.
Anyway, this soil is very soft, and it is also very easy to pull!
Several people were covered in dirt, and their faces were full of excitement as they carried a dustpan of ginger and stems and leaves.
Xiang Tiange couldn't lift a few small things, so he ran in front of them and chased and fought all the way back.
When they got home, the adults looked at the clothes on the children, and there was a lot of chickens and dogs.
A few people washed and changed into clean clothes and came out to stand in the yard, Jiang looked at them, and then looked at the ginger brought back by a few children in the yard, a little silent.
I didn't expect this ginger to grow so well, I thought it was a few children playing around and opened a piece of land to plant ginger, thinking that Xiang Dalang is not small, and it doesn't matter if you open a wasteland.
This ginger old Xiangtou has also knocked in the past, and when he saw that the growth was so good, he was still shocked at the time, but he thought that the children were also manure, and their manure was only watered on this piece of land, and Lao Xiangtou didn't feel anything.
And Lao Xiangtou still thinks that after they dig out these gingers, they will take back this land and plant food!
Because this land was raised by several children, it turned out to be more fertile than the fertile land where the family planted rice!!
"Did you dig up all the ginger in the ground?" Although he felt that it was a little impossible when he saw the stems and leaves of the dustpan, Jiang still wanted to ask.
Xiang Tiange shook his head honestly and said, "No, I only dug half a line..."
That piece of ginger land was reclaimed by them in a row, so that it is not only good to grow ginger, but it is also convenient to water fertilizer and watering, and it is easy to water!
Seeing this method, Jiang decided to reclaim the same kind of vegetables when they planted vegetables in the spring vegetable garden next year, so that they would not have to hold a long bamboo pole tied to a scoop to water and fertilize every day.
"Only half a row of ...... was dug up"
The adults in the courtyard were silent, and the Wang family even stepped forward and took out a piece of ginger from the dustpan and looked at it carefully.
"Mother, this ginger block is actually bigger than the one we planted in the vegetable garden!"
Jiang nodded and said, "Well, these gingers, are you going to sell them in the county?" ”
Nodding to Tiange and the others.
Jiang said: "Okay, the family has gone out to the county to set up a stall today, and tomorrow I will ask the third child to help you take these gingers out and sell them." ”
Xiang Dalang and the others were a little reluctant, but they didn't dare to speak, so Xiang Wulang, who was closest to Xiang Tiange, reached out and poked her.
Xiang Tiange received the meaning of his brothers, and immediately stepped forward and threw himself into Jiang's arms, and said to her: "Grandma, we want to sell it in the county ourselves, today is the Mid-Autumn Festival, maybe it will be very good!" ”
The old Xiangtou next to him immediately refused, "Nonsense, how many of you children took this ginger to sell?" Where to sell? Do you sell things? ”
"Yes! Grandpa, didn't we sell centella asiatica before? Xiang Tiange replied.
“......”
Lao Xiangtou was choked and had nothing to say.
Jiang raised his eyes and glanced at him, then turned his head and smiled at Xiang Tiange again: "Then this Jiang, you can take it to the county and sell it yourself, but you also know the rules of the family, right?" ”
Xiang Tiange was a little stunned and asked, "What rules?" ”
Jiang said: "The other income of the family is to be handed over to the public middle school sixty percent, the centella asiatica that you dug before, there is not much, so I didn't let you hand over the sixty percent to the public middle school, but this time the ginger is different, it is to be handed over to the public middle school sixty percent, you know?" ”
"Okay! No problem! ”
Xiang Tiange felt that it didn't matter, anyway, it was the family's money to hand it over to Gongzhong!
"Then it's still early, the third family, you can take a few children with you."
Jiang Shi said, frowned and looked at a group of children, and finally spoke: "You don't have to go to so many people and so many people at once, do you want to sell things, or do you want to make trouble?" Discuss it yourself, and you can only go to three people at most! ”
Then Xiang Tiange got out of his grandmother's arms, ran over and talked with his brothers for a while, and finally everyone turned around and turned to the adults with satisfaction.
Xiang Tiange said: "We decided to take turns to come and go, there are a lot of gingers in the field, and they can't be sold all at once, today I will go with the eldest brother and the sixth brother first, and tomorrow the second brother will take the fifth brother and the seventh brother to go!" The day after tomorrow, the third brother and the fourth brother will go! ”
