Chapter 160: Cultivated Land Second Shift

After eating, Xu Huaiyi took Wei Liang out, and by the way, he also brought Gu Xiaoyu with him, on the grounds that he had eaten too much sauerkraut fish and had to do some work to eliminate his appetite.

Gu Huanxi didn't go, she taught Wei Ci how to give birth to bean sprouts, it was cold, this could also be eaten as a dish, after closing the door, she picked out the wheat with full grains, soaked it in the water diluted by her daughter, and after finishing her work, she began to annotate those martial arts scriptures again, some of them didn't understand, and they had to look up the dictionary, which was more serious than when she was in school.

In order for the enemy to be able to successfully take the public examination, she is also hard enough.

Xu Huaiyi, who was mowing the grass in the field, couldn't help but sneeze and touched his ears, who was talking to him behind his back? It can't be that his daughter-in-law misses him, right?

Twenty acres of land are connected together, overgrown with wild grass, it is still very spectacular, I want to clean it up, it is not enough to count on a few of them, so Village Chief Xu called a few more people to help.

The big guy listened to Xu Huaiyi's command, cut around the perimeter of the twenty acres of land, cut out a strip of isolation belt, and then set it on fire, so as to save worry and effort, and not afraid of affecting the nearby land, and most importantly, don't worry about the fire not being able to control it, and then burn the trees.

Village Chief Xu couldn't help but nod, "This method is good, let's do it next year." ”

When Xu Maoyuan saw it, he was even more moved, "Do you have to wait for next year?" Let's clean it up when we go back, even if we don't plant it this autumn, it's good to sort out the land first and raise it, anyway, the big guys are idle and idle. ”

Hearing this, Village Chief Xu also agreed, "You're right, if you have time, you can go to open up some wasteland, sprinkle some beans next year, and collect a few more bags." ”

The two of you discussed it sentence by sentence, and the more you talked, the more energetic it became.

When the isolation zone came out, Xu Huaiyi took Gu Xiaoyu's hand and lit a fire with him, at this time, the grass had already dried up, and there was no need for the wind to blow, the fire spread rubbingly, advancing piece by piece, and where the fire passed, the grass and trees were all ashes.

Twenty acres of land burned, and the scene was quite shocking.

Gu Xiaoyu couldn't take his eyes off it.

Xu Huaiyi asked, "What do you think of when you see this fire?" ”

Gu Xiaoyu thought that he was testing his true meaning of life, and couldn't help frowning and thinking.

Xu Huaiyi said at this time, "Do you still need to think about this? Of course, the wildfire burns inexhaustibly, and the spring breeze blows and grows again, hey, you can't learn this way, you don't even know this poem? ”

Gu Xiaoyu, "......"

He knew the poem, but he didn't know that the question was so superficial.

Xu Huaiyi laughed proudly.

Gu Xiaoyu was even more blank.

The two are not on the same channel at all, and each has its own joys and sorrows.

When the fire is exhausted, the ground is charred and black, covered with grass and ashes, which is the most direct fertilizer, just wait for the plough to sow seeds.

There are mules, but it doesn't take much manpower, but you have to find someone to borrow a plow, this matter, Village Chief Xu is familiar with, who has a plow, who has an ox, he knows best.

With Zhang Luo, the head of Xu Village, Xu Huaiyi was a lot more leisurely, and he said to Gu Xiaoyu, "You go back and tell your mother to cook a few more dishes in the evening, these people who help our family work, you have to invite someone to have a meal." ”

Gu Xiaoyu should get down, pat the soil on his body and go home to spread the word.

Xu Huaiyi didn't expect that the village chief Hu would also come to help, and he naturally couldn't get started at that age, but he called his eldest grandson Hu Yingjie to drive the cattle and carry the plow down the ground.

Hu Yingjie is expressionless, but he works neatly, and he looks like a veteran of farming.

Xu Huaiyi hurriedly stepped forward to thank him.

The village chief Hu waved his hand, and said very politely, "They all live in the same village, and the villagers should be the handsome, and it is not worth worrying about ......"

Then, the subject changed, "Compared to the things you do, this little bit of work we do is not worth mentioning at all." ”

This brings the conversation to last night's events.

Xu Huaiyi didn't pretend to be deaf and dumb, and said with a smile, "You are polite, we didn't do anything, we just invited a few monks to come to the village to recite the scriptures, and we wanted to be down-to-earth, after all, we lived in other people's houses, and the money spent was not much, even if we took advantage of it, it was also appropriate to overdo it." ”

The village chief Hu couldn't see the side from his face, even if he had some doubts in his heart, he couldn't be sure, and followed his words, "There is nothing to take advantage of, those houses in the village are idle and no one wants them, you come, and you catch up, it is the fate of the two of us, we should become a family, if you really want to take advantage, that is also our light stained with you, these years, outsiders have avoided our village, and they can't wait to take a detour when they see it, and they feel bad luck and ominous......"

He paused here and sighed, "Alas, it's all fate, who wants those things to happen?" We are unlucky, outsiders don't say sympathy and pity, but they still step on a few feet, what hatred and what resentment, why do you want to kill us all? ”

Xu Huaiyi cleared his throat, "No." ”

Village Chief Hu shook his head, "That's something you haven't experienced, five years ago, it was really ...... Alas, forget it, don't talk about it, it's all over anyway, it's also thanks to you, who would have thought that the Buddha would appear last night, there is this miracle descending, who will dare to say that our lake Tiancun is ominous in the future! ”

Xu Huaiyi snorted, "It will definitely get better and better in the future." ”

The village chief said, "That old man, I can be blind even if I die." ”

Xu Huaiyi didn't want to talk about this topic anymore, and he was even more afraid that the village chief Hu would say something deep, so he turned to ask, "Do you know where to sell fruit saplings?" ”

"Fruit saplings? Any fruit tree will work? ”

"Peach, apricot, jujube tree, pear tree will do."

Village Chief Hu nodded, "These are all there, there are plum trees in the mountains, they look very good when they bloom, and there are grapes at the old man's house, if you want to plant them, go back and ask Yingjie to cut a few for you and insert them." ”

"That's a good dare, don't bother the two masters, and the fruit tree is also entrusted to you, when the time comes, you can give a price, and you won't be busy in vain."

Village Chief Hu waved his hand, "That thing is not worth much, if you feel that you don't want to go, who will help you do the work at that time, you can just take care of the meal." ”

Xu Huaiyi didn't shirk it anymore, and responded happily.

In the evening, Xu Huaiyi called all the people who helped to cultivate the land this afternoon to his home for dinner, and there were two tables in the hall, which was quite spacious.

After Gu Huanxi received Gu Xiaoyu's message, he was busy in the kitchen with Wei Ci, estimating the number of people who worked, and prepared more than a dozen dishes.

Pig's trotters stewed soybeans, there is a big pot on each table, as well as braised pork ribs, steamed dried vegetables with oily meat, fried bacon, and the rest are vegetarian dishes, but under Gu Huanxi's skillful hands, the taste is not bad, there are two cabbages alone, vinegared cabbage, and cold cabbage hearts, everyone is full of praise for eating, and even licking their faces to inquire about the practice.

Xu Huaiyi will also do it, and they will all share it generously.

The meal lasted for more than half an hour, and the guests and hosts enjoyed themselves.
