The Female Officer Became a Farmer After Getting Reborn

After Ah Qing and Laidi came back, the two families started to eat. Liu Changmin looked at the large pot of fried hare with chili peppers, fried vegetables and fish soup on the table. He smiled and sighed, "Oh! I have developed a bad appetite at Ah Qing's house. From now on, What should I do if I’m not used to eating when I get home?”

Li Yu laughed after hearing this, "Uncle, don't worry. There are so many hares on the mountain, there will be several in one litter!"

Liu Changmin smiled cheerfully and said, "Okay, then I will eat it with open stomach."

Laidi looked at Li Yu and asked, "Cousin, can you help me get some live hares? I want to try to raise rabbits myself."

Li Yu readily agreed, "Okay, tomorrow I will go to the bushes behind the house to snare a few and bring them back to you to raise."

After the meal, Li Qing did his homework. Li Yu and Li Mei picked off the pepper stalks, cleaned them, poured them into bamboo pans and dried them on the bamboo rack.

Li Yu took out the cowpeas and poured them into a wooden barrel. He scooped a basin of warm water from the pot and soaked them. Everyone picked off some rotten and bug-eyed cowpeas. Li Qing also came to help after doing his homework. Working harder and faster, several people picked all the cowpeas, washed them, dried them in bamboo plaques.

Things were almost done, and after tidying up, several people took turns to wash up and go back to the house to sleep.

Sisters Li Yu and Zhao Di slept on the same bed. Li Yu thought that fortunately they were all thin, so they didn't feel crowded. Otherwise, such a hot day would be really unbearable.

After Li Yu fell asleep, he went into the space to check and found that everything inside was stored in categories. There were two wild boars, six roe deer, nine wild goats, more than 20 hares and pheasants, as well as several turtledoves and The money from selling wild ducks, prey and wolfberry, plus the money from the Zhang family, already amounted to more than two hundred taels.

Li Yu came out of the space, squinting his eyes and thinking that when the millet was harvested, he would buy more whole grains and grains that could withstand hunger and save them.

When Li Yu woke up early the next morning, he saw that the Zhaodi sisters were still sleeping soundly. After Li Yu got up quietly, he took a rope and a machete and went to the bushes in the back mountain.

Walking into the forest, Li Yu laughed as soon as he stepped on the soft soil in the forest. Now he didn't have to worry about fertilizer. There was plenty of natural organic fertilizer in the forest. I found a few places to put down the noose, and when I turned around and came out of the forest, I found a dozen soapberry trees on the road, which were already covered with soapberries.

Li Yu sighed inwardly. In his previous life, when he was a child, he saw his grandma picking the soapberry trees for shampooing and washing. Now there are more than a dozen trees growing here. Now he doesn't have to worry about bathing and washing clothes.

Li Yu exercised in the woods for a while and did two sets of boxing before returning home. When he got home, he saw that everyone was getting up. Li Qing stood at the door with a book and read loudly toward the rice fields. Li Mei and her daughter were there. Cook.

Li Yu looked at the beans soaked in the bucket. When he picked them up, he saw that the bean skins were swollen. He sat down on a bench and began to peel the bean skins.

After the beans were soaked, the skin fell off with a gentle rub of the hands. Li Yu peeled a pot out after using it with great strength and quick movements. After dinner, Li Qing also went to school. Li Mei and his wife asked Li Yu to collect them at home. Cai, he and Liu Changmin were going to clear up wasteland behind the house with hoes and sickles in hand.

Li Yu quickly stopped the two of them, "Aunt, how long will you and your uncle have to cut such a big field of weeds? There is no wind today so Zhao Di can watch it at home. I will go with you. I have a way to clean up those weeds."

Li Mei looked at Li Yu's confident look and said with a smile: "Okay! Let's see if you have any good ideas."

Li Yu picked up the hoe and Li Mei and his wife went to the wasteland behind the house. They drew a five-foot wide line around the wasteland. Pointing to the marked place, they said to Li Mei and Liu Changmin: "Aunt, you and your uncle clear the surrounding weeds." , cut it according to the position I marked."

Li Mei and Liu Changmin nodded in agreement and bent down to start cutting. Li Yu took a hoe and dug a fire separation belt from the middle of the wasteland.

Halfway through digging, Laidi ran to say that someone had brought vegetables and peas. Li Meilian took the hoe from Li Yu's hand and said, "Yu'er, go back quickly and leave this place to me first."

Li Yu pointed to the square he had drawn and warned: "Aunt, you can cut it according to what I have drawn and I will harvest it."

"Go quickly!" Li Mei agreed with a smile. Li Yu quickly ran back home and saw several women standing in the yard carrying peppers and cowpeas. "Aunts, I'm sorry for keeping you waiting for so long."

"It's okay, I'm not busy now." A woman responded cheerfully.

"Zhao Di, watch me teach you." Li Yu took the steel scale from Zhao Di's hand, and while weighing it, taught Zhao Di how to calculate the scale, and then weighed the cowpeas, kohlrabi, peppers, and peas brought by several people. Later, Zhaodi also learned it.

Li Yu paid the money, and when the women saw that they could really make money, they all went back with baskets and bamboo baskets.

Zhaodi pointed to the peeled and washed beans and put them in the water to dry and said, "Cousin, do you want to dry the beans after you've peeled them?"

"No, you go and take out the bamboo stick."

After hearing this, Zhao Di took out the bamboo sticks. Li Yu went to the house and took out the pumpkin leaves that Li Mei had brought back. They poured the watercress into the bamboo sticks. Li Yu spread the beans evenly, and then put the pumpkin leaves into it. Put it on top of the beans, carry it into the side room and put it on the bamboo stand.

Zhao Di looked at the watercress covered with pumpkin leaves and looked at Li Yu in confusion, "Cousin, will it get damaged if you cover it like this?"

"No, I'm fermenting it. After a few days, the white hair will grow on the bean paste, and then you can start making bean paste."

Zhaodi felt that she still didn't understand, so she nodded obediently, "Cousin, go and do your work! I'll pack up the ones I just collected at home."

After Li Yu agreed, he took the fire seal and went to the wasteland from the backyard to cut out the isolation belt with Li Mei and his wife. Li Yu took out the fire seal and prepared to light a fire. Li Mei was so frightened that he stopped Li Yu and said, "Yu'er, This can’t be done, it will be troublesome if it catches fire.”

Li Yu pointed at the isolation belt and said with a smile: "Aunt, there is no wind at all today. We also cut the isolation belt so that the fire will not burn through."

"Really?" Li Mei and Liu Changmin looked at Li Yu suspiciously, and Li Yu nodded solemnly, "If you are worried, just go to the forest with a hoe and take a closer look!"

Li Mei and Liu Changmin hurriedly ran toward the forest. Li Yu blew a fire stick to ignite the weeds. Once the hay was ignited, it burst into flames.

When the fire reached the isolation zone and stopped crossing, Li Mei and Liu Changmin felt relieved and ran over and said with a smile: "Yu'er, this is a good method. The weeds will be burned out in a short time, including the grass seeds." Grass ashes can also fertilize the land.”

Li Yu told the two of them: "Auntie, if you want to burn wasteland in the future, you must first cut out the isolation zone. It is best to cut the isolation zone wider. You must choose a windless day before burning, and people must stay there just in case. .”

Li Mei and his wife quickly agreed. Li Yu waited for the remaining weeds to be burned and said to Li Mei: "My aunt is going to the market tomorrow. Let's go buy an ox and a cart and come back. We will also buy a plow and a rake. It will be used in the future.”

After hearing this, Liu Changmin advised: "Xiaoyu, in my opinion, let's forget it! A cow costs at least ten taels of silver, and a plowshare and rake cost another four or five taels. We can just spend more effort."

"Uncle, you can't save these things, oh! You need earthenware pots to make pickles. Do you know where there is an earthen kiln for making earthenware pots?"

"There is an earthen kiln in Dongshan Village. How big do you want it to be?" Liu Changmin looked at Li Yu and said.

Li Yu thought for a moment, "Let's first buy twenty sauce jars that hold fifty kilograms, ten of one hundred kilograms, and a hundred small jars that hold one kilogram."

Li Mei was worried that Liu Changmin would not negotiate the price honestly, "Yu'er, if we buy so much, we have to negotiate the price with the boss. If your uncle is honest, it's better for me to accompany your uncle!"

Li Yu smiled and agreed, "Okay, you and uncle can go together!"

When the three of them returned home, Zhao Di had already prepared lunch. After Li Qing came back to eat, Li Yu gave the money to Li Mei and his wife and went to Dongshan Village with Li Qing.
