Chapter 120
Chapter 120
Every year around New Year's Eve, the weather here will get warmer. Most of the time, it is sunny. Therefore, many grass and tree buds like to take advantage of this warm wind.
The temperature this year seems to be a little higher than in previous years. Of course, this is not what man Bao said. Her memory. At this time last year, she only ran around the village with her nephews and nieces to pay New Year's greetings. She can't remember how many clothes she wore and what clothes she wore.
However, Keke has records. It tells man Bao that the temperature this year is two to three degrees higher than that in the same period last year, and that this temperature is very suitable for planting yams.
So, man Bao came back from his uncle's house with his father on the second day of junior high school. On the third day of junior high school, he wanted to farm.
Of course, Zhou Dalang and the three of them who have a daughter-in-law and a family in law are not free. Even the big head said they have no time, so Zhou Xi can go to the ground together. Zhou Silang came to Zhou LIULANG.
Zhou Xi didn't know any yams. It was the first time she knew that Lao Si had opened a piece of land at the bottom of the mountain. She took out their bred seedlings and picked out several broken ones. She was very worried, "what's the use of planting yams? Can you really make money? Man Bao, did you tell your parents what happened in the field? "
Zhou Silang disliked his elder sister's wordiness and said, "I told you earlier, this yam is making money. Elder sister, this is medicine. Can you not make money?"
He rubbed his shoulders and said, "in order to plant these two baby pimples, I can dig a lot of soil in the mountains to fatten up. If I only plant beans, I'll die."
When Zhou Xi got to the ground, he knew that they had dug down the rotten leaf layer in the forest and buried it in the soil for fermentation.
On Thursday, Lang said, "it's more than that. Manbao asked me to water dung from time to time years ago. I feel that this place is not a newly opened yellow land, but a vegetable garden that can grow vegetables."
Zhou Xi is also a good farmer. She hoed a hoe and turned up the soil under her. She looked at the old four and said, "how did you turn this land? It's too shallow. Turn it over again."
Zhou sirang:
Man Bao doesn't understand this kind of thing, but since elder sister said so, listen to elder sister.
Then the land is divided into three ridges according to Keke's entry. There is a gully between the ridges, which can drain water, because it is said that yam must pay attention to drainage.
Zhou Xi and his three younger brothers turned the land over again and divided the ridges according to man Bao's words. Only then did he plant yams.
Zhou Xi also asked carefully.
The yams planted have sprouted. After planting, Zhou Xi and his brothers poured water on them because they were afraid of the cold and covered them with a layer of shallow straw.
The rest of the unspoiled space is reserved for ginger.
When they farm, man Bao squats aside to watch, or walks around nearby. Then she chose a good place for her eldest sister.
As soon as they were finished, man Bao took Zhou Xi's hand and looked at it, pointing to a overgrown tunnel: "elder sister, shall we open this land for you?"
Zhou Xi was stunned. "Give it to me?"
"Yes, so you have land." This land was selected by Koko after scanning. It is said to be the best one nearby.
Like this unimportant little thing, Koko is generally willing to help the host.
Man Bao planned for Zhou Xi, "I'll buy some more ginger seeds then, and my eldest sister will also grow ginger to sell, so that I can make a lot of money in autumn. With money, you can build a house and buy more land. In the future, if you want to raise children, you can adopt one. If you don't want to raise children, you can keep it. You can buy delicious food every day and make a lot of new clothes. "
Zhou Xi murmured, "adopt a child?"
"Yes, this is what my friend said. It says that many people adopt children if they don't want to have children. As long as they have money and meet the conditions, they can raise children. I think it should be easier for us to adopt children here. Doesn't it mean that there are many beggars on the street? Elder sister, I'll find a pleasant one to raise in the future. "
Zhou Silang couldn't help saying, "it's better to raise children outside than at home."
He turned to Zhou Xi and said, "elder sister, if you like raising children, I'll give them to you when I have a baby."
Zhou Xi couldn't help glancing at him, "what you think is beautiful. Let me raise children for you. Will he call me mother or aunt in the future?"
Zhou Silang said without any mind: "if you want him to call you mother, call him mother, and call him aunt. Don't worry, sister. I won't rob you of your children."
Zhou Xi is a little excited.
Man Bao teased him, "you don't even have a daughter-in-law, and if you like, my fourth sister-in-law doesn't necessarily like it."
Zhou Silang couldn't help muttering, "why don't you like it when someone provides for children?"
Zhou Xi's heart was cold, sighed and didn't speak.
On Friday, Lang couldn't help coming up and asking Zhou Silang, "fourth brother, do you have a sweetheart?"
Zhou sirang was a little depressed. "No, my mother said. I don't want to get married these two years. I don't have money at home."
On Friday, Lang was also a little disappointed. If his fourth brother didn't get married, he couldn't take his turn. Alas~~
As soon as Zhou Xi recovered, she saw two younger brothers with a disappointed face. She couldn't help laughing and scolding, "do you all miss your daughter-in-law?"
Zhou Silang was very single. "It's no use thinking about it. Who can see me."
Zhou Xi couldn't help worrying. When he went back, he mentioned it to her mother and said, "mother, the fourth is eighteen this year. Don't you talk about marriage?"
Qian was picking out the seeds of grain. He picked out the bad grain and put it aside. He looked up at her and said, "why, the fourth wants to marry a daughter-in-law?"
"Not only the fourth but also the fifth is not young. According to his age, he should look at each other this year. He should marry his daughter-in-law back next year or the next year."
Qian sighed and said, "I've discussed with your father and won't add more this year."
It means that Zhou Siro will not be married this year.
Zhou Xi pondered: "is the bride price not enough? I still have some here. Gather together..."
"No," said Qian, "it's not all about money. Although there was a fourth year's bastard last year, the family's wealth was good in the second half of the year, and they also saved some money. If we marry a daughter-in-law casually, it's OK, but we have many brothers. If we don't choose a good one, we're afraid that the new daughter-in-law will make the house restless."
So she would rather give more betrothal gifts than marry a good daughter-in-law.
Qian's own plan, "I've discussed with your father and saved the money this year. After the autumn harvest, I'll start three houses. It can be regarded as building the houses where the fourth, fifth and sixth will marry their daughter-in-law in the future. It can also let outsiders see the fourth's performance and know that only when he learns well can he talk about marriage."
Qian has made plans. As long as the fourth year is obedient and works hard, he will tell him an honest and considerate daughter-in-law; If he is powerful and can really grow good things in the field to earn money, she will tell him something more powerful and can control him. She will admit it even if it costs more money.
