Back To Qiqi Farming To Raise Children
Chapter 280 Farming
After Qingming, the temperature rises, and every household starts to prepare for spring plowing.
Cracking corn stubble in the field, arranging what to plant this year, and also needing ponds and thatch sheds for ginseng, are all very busy.
Xu Shiyan was transferred to work in a field, and he only had time off on Sundays, so he couldn't help much with family affairs.
Xu Chenghou had to take care of the seven-acre fields of the two families, nearly one acre of private land, and the sticks for the ginseng.
It is also a bit difficult for the old man in his sixties.
Xu Shiyan and his wife discussed that it would be better to let others grow their own land, and just give them some food when the time comes.
Xu Shiyan at home eats the food supply, and the children can't eat much when they are young. Besides, it is not impossible to buy food now, so there is really no need to make Xu Chenghou suffer.
It would be more reasonable to concentrate on managing those clubs and farms.
The couple agreed and went to discuss with Xu Chenghou, but Xu Chenghou refused to let him go.
An old farmer all his life, what can he do without farming?
Now this land is our own, no matter what it is, we have to plant it.
The two sides were deadlocked, and no one would give in.
"Father, if you don't agree, I have no choice but to wean the two little ones.
With so much land, I can’t let you do it alone. I plant our own land by myself.
It's okay, when I didn't go out, I planted the land at home. "
Seeing that this was not going to work, Su Anying simply resorted to her trump card, and she wanted to wean the child.
"What? Wean the baby? How can that be done? These two are less than a birthday old, how can you wean them?"
When Xu Chenghou and Zhou Guilan heard it, they were all blown away.
"Yuanyuan was pregnant with Pingping at that time, and she was weaned when she ran out of milk, so it took eleven months anyway.
At that time, Pingping drank breast milk for 15 months, and co-authored it on these two heads. You will be weaned after only 10 months?
No, absolutely not, let me tell you, at least one birthday, don't try to cheat my grandchildren. "
Zhou Guilan was very angry.
"Mom, what do you say?
There are several acres of land waiting to be planted here, and someone has to work on the Bangchui field on the mountain, and the farm at the other end is about to build a flower shed.
Shi Yan can't take care of work, don't I have to ask for it?
These two cubs are not going to stop milking, can I go up the mountain to plant half of the land and come back to feed them? "
With the support of her husband, Su Anying's attitude is also quite tough.
Otherwise, there is no way, there is no reason to tell the old man, so this is the only way to do it.
Zhou Guilan choked for a moment, that's right, so much work was thrown to her daughter-in-law, and there were two nursing children at home, it was really embarrassing.
"Father, Mom, what about you two now, with the food and money my eldest brother and the others give you every month, you can't actually lack much food.
That private land, and the well-divided land in the team, let's grow some by ourselves, that's enough.
For the rest of the land, whoever wants to plant it can plant it, and just give us some food in autumn.
In this way, my father will take care of two or three acres of land, as well as a stick on the mountain, and Yingzi will help.
In the past two years, when the child is a little older, it will be slowed down, right? "
Xu Shiyan sang "Red Face" and "Slime Mud" in the middle.
There is no need to wait two or three years, at most until next autumn and winter, when the Clivia in the flower shed is sold, there will be less thought there.
The participation of the brigade has not been tossing for a few years, and it will be done by individuals in the future.
At that time, Xu Shiyan will find a way to join forces with Huang Shengli and the others to approve the land together, and hire blind people to work. He can just go up and take a look on Sunday.
As for that bit of land, if the old man likes to plant, he can plant it, and if he wants to plant less, it is a sport.
Otherwise, this old man has been busy all his life, and it is really uncomfortable for him to be idle suddenly.
The couple sang together, and the old couple had to take care of their grandchildren. In the end, they had no choice but to surrender.
"That's fine, just follow what the third child said, let's keep some good land for ourselves, and grow some of our favorite food.
For others, I will ask, and anyone who wants to plant them can plant them. "The stubborn old man finally stopped being stubborn and nodded in agreement.
Xu Shiyan and his wife looked at each other, couldn't help but chuckled, and finally it made sense.
Therefore, Xu Chenghou said that his own land cannot be grown, and whoever is willing to plant it, just give some food in autumn.
Not to mention, several families came to ask, and finally gave it to a family with a good relationship with the Xu family, surnamed Fu.
The two parties agreed that a total of five and a half acres of land would be given to the Xu family forty catties of soybeans and two hundred catties of corn in autumn.
This year's grain production is not high, too much is not enough, and people can't afford it and stop planting.
The remaining one and a half mu of good land, together with the private land of the two families, was reserved for Xu Chenghou to plant.
Xu Chenghou had thought about it a long time ago, and wanted to grow some millet, millet, sorghum for brooms, adzuki beans, soybeans, and sticky corn.
As he said, grow a little of everything and save it for the family to eat.
I have livestock and a plow stick at home, so I don't need to ask for help. At four o'clock in the morning, Xu Shiyan and his father put on the plow stick and went to the ground together.
After two mornings, the trip was over.
On Sunday, together with Su Anying, the few of them planted the land in one afternoon.
After planting the land, the family has no more thoughts, and the flower shed at the other end of the farm should also start construction.
The flower shed is built in the style of a vegetable greenhouse, with a single slope, but there is no greenhouse film in this year, so glass windows can only be used.
Xu Shiyan asked Lin Jian's people to come over and explain to them what kind of flower shed he wanted, design and draw it out, and prepare the materials.
Xu Shian and Su Anying came to watch, Xu Shiyan didn't have time.
Gastrodia elata seeds must be available in order to carry out experiments on the field cultivation of Gastrodia elata with old ginseng.
So from May onwards, as soon as I joined the field, I advertised in various villages and forest farms in the forest area to collect fresh Gastrodia elata.
Experienced mountain runners don't have to wait for Gastrodia elata to emerge, and take a shovel into the mountain. If they are lucky, they can dig ten catties a day.
In recent years, the price of dried Gastrodia elata has grown quite rapidly.
The key is that some beekeepers from the south come here, they love Gastrodia elata, and they often buy it at a high price.
As a result, the price of gastrodia elata has risen, and now a catty of dry goods costs about seven or eight yuan.
The ginseng field collects fresh Gastrodia elata for two yuan per catty, regardless of whether the seedlings have emerged or not, regardless of the size, even small rice hemp.
At this price, many people think it is a good deal.
How good is it to dig it out without washing it, cooking it and drying it in the sun?
So many people dug up gastrodia elata and sent it to the purchase point, and sent people to the venue to walk around every two days to transport it back.
All the Gastrodia elata brought back were arranged by Xu Shiyan and sent to the old ginseng field in Caozihe, where the club was played last year.
Put the fermented bacteria sticks mixed with Armillaria mellea in advance in the ginseng soil, put the graded Gastrodia elata in the middle, then cover the top with soil, and cover the branches and leaves, especially the leaves of oak trees.
Old ginseng fields are all black soil rich in humus, the soil has good air permeability, and the ginseng soil planted with mallets is rich in flora, which is conducive to the growth of armillaria.
In the natural environment, after years of development, the old ginseng field is also easy to grow Gastrodia elata.
Therefore, planting Gastrodia elata in the old ginseng has its own advantages, but the initial investment is a bit larger.
Waiting for the seeds to be saved next year, and then cultivate the germination bacteria of small mushrooms and Armillaria armillaria, and then the cycle can be realized and large-scale cultivation can be achieved.
