"Finally, I've finished planting another line of rice, Pingping, Jingjing, you have to work hard! At your current speed, I can only see two days to finish planting this acre of rice, wait and don't be compared to those children, they are all progressing faster than you. ”

Zhao Chaogang got up and wiped the sweat on his forehead, he hadn't farmed for more than ten years, and today he accompanied the children of the Liu family to farm, and his hands were indeed a lot rusty.

"Chao Gang, this farming is really difficult, Sister Pingping, we still hand over our task to Chao Gang, let's go and help Aunt Zhao cook lunch, there are so many of us, Aunt Zhao and they will definitely not be busy, Sister Pingping, what do you think?"

Liu Jingjing was covered in mud, for her, who had never planted rice in the field, it was already Liu Jingjing's luck not to turn into a black mud, look at the children of the Liu family, the whole mud monkey.

"Well, Jingjing, you're right, Aunt Zhao and they only have three people, and it's really scrambling to cook for so many of us, let's go help Aunt Zhao and them. ”

Faced with such a problem as farming, Li Liping obviously retreated: "Chaogang, let's go help Aunt Zhao and them cook lunch, and the task in our acre of field will be handed over to you, Chaogang, you have to come on!"

Li Liping's voice was still in Zhao Chaogang's ears, but the figures of Li Liping and Liu Jingjing were gone, obviously Pingping and Jingjing used light skills to escape.

"These two guys, who were so interested in farming just now, are now retreating early, and handing over the tasks they should complete to themselves, what a headache!"

Zhao Chaogang has not farmed for more than ten years, and his craftsmanship is really rusty. Besides, even if Zhao Chaogang's craftsmanship was not unfamiliar, at that time, Zhao Chaogang's farming was also a soy sauce store.

Zhao Chaogang's family has no paddy fields since he was a child, only some dry fields, but Zhao Chaogang's grandmother's house has a lot of paddy fields. Whenever the rice matured or rice seedlings were planted, Zhao Chaogang's family of three would go to his grandmother's house to help with the work, and Zhao Chaogang's rice planting technique was learned at that time.

When Zhao Chaogang went to the fifth grade and his academic performance was getting better and better, his grandmother's family would no longer let Zhao Chaogang go to the field, at most, let Zhao Chaogang drag those straws or something.

Zhao Chaogang remembers that time. His third uncle gave himself a straw to give himself a dime, and at that time, he was so powerful. Now that I think about it, Zhao Chaogang misses that time very much, that time. It's wonderful!

Especially in the summer, Zhao Chaogang only needs to go to his grandmother's house. A few uncles would take him to take the night fish. Catch snails and frogs, but every time I go, the third uncle will play tricks on Zhao Chaogang. Zhao Chaogang clearly remembered every time he went to take care of the night fish, and what impressed Zhao Chaogang the most was the time when Zhao Chaogang was nine years old.

It was a summer evening. Zhao Chaogang and his children followed a few uncles to take care of the night fish, and the harvest was very rich, with more than half a bucket of fish and a dozen frogs, just when everyone wanted to go back. The third uncle told Zhao Chaogang that under the stone in front of him, there was a big fish, and Zhao Chaogang believed it and directly stepped forward to beat the stone.

There is indeed something under the big stone, but it is not a big fish, but a cauliflower snake with two fingers and thumbs, this cauliflower snake directly coiled up a snake formation after Zhao Chaogang moved the stone, and the high snake head scared Zhao Chaogang half to death, but the third uncle laughed heartlessly on the side. (The cauliflower snake is our name for the king snake)

After returning home that day, the third uncle was beaten by my grandmother, and even my grandfather, who was not very talkative, said a few words to the third uncle, of course, as compensation to me, the frog meat that originally belonged to the third uncle was enjoyed by me that night, and even the cauliflower snake that scared me to cry that day was made into a dish by my grandmother and eaten by me the next day. Until now, Zhao Chaogang still clearly remembers the deliciousness of the cauliflower snake.

When he recalled these things, Zhao Chaogang's face showed a sweet smile, that time was Zhao Chaogang's happiest time, he really missed the stream of his grandmother's house, those fish, frogs and all kinds of water snakes and cauliflower snakes in the stream.

"Chao Gang, do you still have seedlings there? If you have, throw a little of them, I'll run out of seedlings here. ”

Zhao Laogen's words, who were planting rice not far away, interrupted Zhao Chaogang's nostalgia for his childhood, but Zhao Chaogang had decided to go back recently to see his old grandmother and those fields and streams full of memories of his childhood.

"Uncle Zhao, the seedlings here have also been used up, and the seedlings at the edge of the rice field are almost used up, Uncle Zhao, I will go with you to pick up the seedlings. ”

Zhao Laogen's family's other dozens of acres of rice have been planted with rice transplanters, leaving only one acre of rice field, this is because Zhao Chaogang has long discussed with Zhao Laogen, and wants to use their rice field to exercise the children of the Liu family, so that they can know that food is not easy to come by, and the farmers have the happiness and hardship of farming, and use farming to exercise their physique and willpower.

Zhao Chaogang believes that the people cultivated in this way will never back down when they encounter difficulties in the future. If the Liu family wants to rise, it needs such strong-willed people.

"Okay, the seedling field is there, you and I will go to pick up the seedlings. However, Chaogang, your farming skills are still not good, you see, these rice seedlings of yours are not planted solidly and neatly enough. ”

Zhao Laogen had just come to Zhao Chaogang's side, and after seeing the seedlings planted by Zhao Chaogang, his brows furrowed. According to Zhao Chaogang's planting method, the yield is definitely much worse, Zhao Chaogang's seedlings are planted too shallow, which is easy to cause seedlings to rot roots, thereby reducing yield.

"Forget it, let's go and raise seedlings first, and then I'll teach you how to plant seedlings when I come back?"

Zhao Laogen didn't plan to say anything, after all, Zhao Chaogang was a person in the city at first glance, and he didn't know that it was normal to grow rice, even if it was his youngest son, it wasn't that he didn't know how to grow rice.

"Chaogang, you bring those two seedling stools first, and they will be useful when you can bundle the seedlings. ”

The seedlings are not tall in the paddy field, only about 30 centimeters in height, therefore, if the farmers want to raise the seedlings, they have to bend over, bow their heads to pull out the seedlings, it doesn't matter if they bend down and bow their heads in a short time, but after a long time, they will not be able to stand it, especially the neck and waist will be sore, so there will be such a seedling horse.

The height of the seedling horse is about half a meter, and the lower part is a wooden board with the front end upturned and the bottom smooth, so when people sit on the seedling horse and pull the seedlings, the pressure on the bottom of the seedling is greatly reduced because of this wooden plank, and it will not fall into the muddy field mud.

"Hey, I see. Zhao Chaogang picked up two seedling stools and followed Zhao Laogen to the seedling field.

"You first see how I raise the seedlings, and I feel that I have mastered the trick, and then I come down and raise the seedlings. ”

Zhao Laogen took the seedling stool from Zhao Chaogang's hand and entered the seedling field. Zhao Laogen is indeed an expert in farming, and he is very skilled in raising seedlings.

Zhao Laogen sits at the front end of the seedling stool, because the front end of the seedling stool is cocked, so, in the process of pulling the seedlings, Zhao Laogen does not need to deliberately get up after pulling a seedling next to him, he does not need to deliberately get up, move the seedling stool forward, just sit on the seedling stool with a little force, and the seedling stool will slide forward along the slippery field mud, which is fast and labor-saving.

Zhao Chaogang looked at it once, and understood the mystery, and took the seedling stool to the field with great interest.

"Chaogang, you are really a good farmer, just watched for a while, the action of raising seedlings is so skilled, compared to me, a veteran of farming for decades, I don't want to let ah, yes, a good farmer. ”

Zhao Laogen happened to see that Zhao Chaogang just watched it for less than a minute and went down to the field to raise seedlings, and he was still a little worried about what Zhao Chaogang would do, but it turned out that he was worried in vain.

Zhao Chaogang was indeed a little rusty at first, but in less than ten seconds, Zhao Chaogang's proficiency in raising seedlings was not inferior to that of a veteran like him. If it weren't for the rustiness of the seedlings that had just begun to raise seedlings, Zhao Laogen would be very sure that Zhao Chaogang was the first time to raise seedlings, and Zhao Laogen really didn't believe it, Zhao Chaogang was the first time to raise seedlings, and his movements were too skilled.

It seems that genius is indeed a genius, at least Zhao Chaogang is definitely a genius in farming.

"Chaogang, we brought you snacks and tea, you and Uncle Zhao come up and have some snacks. ”

Just as Zhao Chaogang and Zhao Laogen were raising seedlings in the paddy field, Li Liping and Liu Jingjing walked towards this side with two big baskets.

Farming is a very tiring thing, so when farmers are farming, they will eat a snack or something halfway to replenish their body. Morning snacks are generally around half past nine, while afternoon snacks are around three o'clock.

"Got it, we'll go up right away. Zhao Chaogang replied loudly: "Uncle Zhao, let's go up and eat some snacks to fill our stomachs and replenish our lower body." Farming is a tiring job, and I feel hungry now. ”

"Okay, let's go have some snacks first, with you, a good hand at raising seedlings, you can rest as much as you want. Zhao Laogen did not postpone it, got up with Zhao Chaogang and came to the field side, and began to eat a starting point.

"Uncle Zhao, you eat slowly here, I'll go and see those children, they are making trouble, those seedlings just now, if it weren't for the waste of these little guys, where would we need to come to the seedling field to raise seedlings, Uncle Zhao, you rest first, and when I come back, we will raise seedlings together." ”

"Okay, you go, you can rest assured here. ”

"Okay!" (to be continued......)
