Back To Qiqi Farming To Raise Children

Dog days in July, hot and rainless, is a good time for ground preparation in Shendili.

The Second Brigade has a relatively long history of planting ginseng. Most of the ginseng land near the No. 2 Bridge has been used, and there is no cutting area this year.

The newly approved ginseng land is near the Xiaohei River in the southwest of Funan Forest Farm.

After selecting the site, the first thing to do is to clean up the site.

This area was newly cut last year. The large logs have already been transported away, and the remaining shrubs, small trees, and weeds have to be cleared. This is the firewood.

Generally speaking, bottoming firewood is most suitable for carrying out in dog days.

Leave the useful wood, and put the rest of the dead branches and weeds together. After drying for a few days, light them up and burn them off.

To increase the ground temperature, accelerate the decomposition of organic matter, promote the maturation of the soil, and reduce pests and diseases.

Xu Shiyan is a participating technician in the second brigade, so he must bring people to do all these tasks.

Funan Forest Farm was far away from Donggang, and it was inconvenient to run back and forth all day, so Xu Shiyan took his people and built a ground next to the ginseng field.

Take advantage of the good weather and hurry up to get the job out.

After a few days in the sun, the dead branches and weeds on the ground were half dry, so I found a windless morning and planned to light the firewood pile.

"Everyone, be more energetic, you must watch over it, and don't run away.

There are forests all around here, if something happens, we all have to go in. "

Xu Shiyan told everyone anxiously, for fear that if a careless person ran away, it would be a big deal.

"Brother Xu, don't worry, our haystacks are quite far away from the edge of the forest, and we can't run out of fire, so you can rest on the side with peace of mind."

Although Xu Shiyan is a technician, but he has no airs, works with the big guys in the building, and never looks down on anyone, so everyone is very close to Xu Shiyan.

"The haystack we are trimming this time is too big. I'm afraid it won't be trimmed when the fire starts, so I'd better be careful."

How dare Xu Shiyan leave the place? He just went home the day before yesterday, and these bastards piled up firewood so high.

Just kidding, if the fire comes together and there is a gust of wind, I really dare not say what's going on, so let's just watch here honestly.

"Don't be in a hurry to start a fire. They all took shovels and dug a firebreak around those haystacks. This thing is really not a joke."

Xu Shiyan was still worried, and arranged for someone to dig a circle around the firewood pile with a shovel.

After working together for such a long time, everyone knows Xu Shiyan's temper, and they are cautious and considerate.

Since Xu Shiyan is the leader, he can do whatever he says.

So this group of young men didn't feel too tired, they all took shovels, picks, etc., and dug a circle of fire escapes around those big firewood piles.

Now, Xu Shiyan felt relieved, and called for someone to light the fire.

Those weeds had been exposed to the sun for several days, and they had already dried up. When a fire was lit, the flames would burst up immediately, burning with the half-dried branches.

In summer, it was already hot, but when the fire was lit, it became even more scorching.

Everyone hastily withdrew far away, sitting in the shade by the edge of the forest, chatting and laughing.

Everyone else was laughing and joking, but Xu Shiyan didn't dare to be distracted at all, and kept staring at the fire, fearing that something might happen.

Everything was fine at first, although the fire was big, but after all, most of the branches were not too dry, and the fire was not big.

Suddenly, a gust of wind blew over, and the fire started up in a flash.

Xu Shiyan stood up suddenly in fright, "Quick, look around, don't run away."

With the little fire escape they dug, it wouldn't be able to stop the fire if it really happened. This is really no joke.

"Don't sit still, hurry up and take a look."

While talking, Xu Shiyan wandered around the forest to check the situation around the fire.

As a result, an abnormality was discovered just beside a fire to the west.

The fire escape over there was not dug properly, and the grass around the fire was dried up. The wind just now should have blown out the sparks, and the fire spread to the side.

"Come over here with your belongings, this side is deserted." Xu Shiyan hurriedly shouted, and rushed over with a shovel in his hand.

When the people over there heard it, they were terrified, and hurried to the west.

Looking here, the fire has spread quite a lot on the ground.

Without further ado, everyone swung their shovels and started beating the branches, and some people picked up soil from the ground and pressed it up.

Fortunately, when laying firewood, it was cleaned up fairly cleanly, and the grass on the ground was not thick.

In addition, the wind blew for a while, and soon stopped, and the fire was brought under control under the beatings of the crowd.

"It's so good, it's really a motherfucker, why is there such a demonic wind?"

Seeing that the fire was extinguished, everyone breathed a sigh of relief.

Now, no one dared to run to play, and they all stayed around the forest, staring at the fires, for fear of any accidents.

Some of the fires were too big, and there were some big tree roots inside, and they burned until the afternoon, so it was over.

Xu Shiyan was worried, so he took people to check the fire one by one, and turned the fire from top to bottom with a stick.

After confirming that they were all extinguished and there were no sparks left, he breathed a sigh of relief and led the people down the mountain.

Shendi was more than 30 miles away from Donggang. Fortunately, Xu Shiyan was riding a bicycle and arrived home after five o'clock.

Before entering the door, he heard laughter and laughter in the house, which seemed to be a lot of people talking, Xu Shiyan was a little puzzled, who is here?

In summer, the windows were all open, so Xu Shiyan went to the window and took a look in, okay, there are quite a few people in the room.

The father-in-law, mother-in-law, father and mother all came. What day is it today, why is it so complete?

"Father, mother, father, mother, why are you here?" The two fathers must be distinguished, so they can only call Xu Chenghou father and Su Weizhong father.

"Why are you here? You are a father, you have even forgotten your son for a hundred days, right?

Haiyuan celebrates a hundred days today, and my mother, your father-in-law and mother-in-law all come to see the child and celebrate the hundred days for the child. "

Xu Cheng gave his son a thick look. How can such a big event be forgotten?

Xu Shiyan slapped his forehead, "Oh my god, I really forgot, the mountain is too busy these days, I live on the mountain, and I don't know which day it is."

Isn't it? His family's son was born on the twelfth day of the third month in the lunar calendar. The baby is counted as a hundred days, not by day, but by month, and it takes ninety-nine days.

Today is the twenty-fifth day of the seventh month in the Gregorian calendar, isn't it the twenty-first day in the lunar calendar?

"What are you busy with? Look at your dirty face, why is your face still black and gray?"

Zhou Guilan saw that her son was tanned and thin this summer, and she immediately felt distressed.

"Shendi, laying firewood, burning those branches and weeds today, isn't that leading people to watch the fire burn out, leaving a body covered in ashes."

Xu Shiyan didn't dare to say that he almost ran away, for fear that his parents would worry.

"Okay, hurry up and wash it up, and change some clothes, Yingzi, quickly find him a set of clean clothes."

Zhou Guilan loves to be clean, how can she see her son's dirty appearance? Hurry up and rush Xu Shiyan to wash and tidy up.

Xu Shiyan has been on the mountain these days, and he really didn't look like it.

It just so happens that the water in the big basin in the yard is still warm, so hurry up and wash it.

"Mom, have the results of the fifth college entrance examination come out?" Xu Shiyan took the towel handed by his mother, wiped his head and face, and asked casually.
