Chapter 359 Where's Your Mother?

As soon as Bai Erlang left, Bai Shanbao said to Man Bao, "One pear can bear a lot of fruit. You can plant three, and the remaining eleven can be planted for me."

Man Bao was asking Keke about the fruit trees that could be planted here. Hearing that, he shook his head and said, "No, it seems that jujubes can still be grown here. I want to grow jujube trees."

The main reason is that red dates have a great effect. They appear in medical books more than once. She thinks it is much better than pears and apples.

Bai Shanbao didn't expect that Man Bao would not agree, and his cheeks were puffed up for a while.

There are not many fruit seedlings that Master Bai can find. Seeing that the three children are chatting and wanting to plant, he can't help saying: "Okay, okay, you also have to think about what can be planted here, can't be planted here. What to plant, don't think about planting anything."

Bai Shanbao: "That cousin, what do you think can be grown here?"

Master Bai counted them with his fingers, "The apples, peaches, oranges, and cherries you mentioned are all fine. There are also pears and dates. Besides, there are loquats and plums. You can choose your own."

The eyes of the three children met, and Man Bao said, "A tree can bear many fruits, we can plant each of them."

Bai Shanbao counted the species and said, "Eight species, then five species of one species should be enough for us to eat."

Master Bai: ...So you plant fruit trees not to make money, but to satisfy your appetite?

Bai Erlang agreed to the distribution plan after hesitating. He muttered, "I said earlier, there was no need to argue yesterday."

The key is that they didn't know yesterday that Master Bai could get so many kinds of fruit trees.

The three children looked at Master Bai together, their eyes shining, "These fruit trees must be available for purchase, right?"

Facing their doubts, Master Bai was expressionless, "I will try my best."

Of course, this is not difficult for him, and the amount is not large, only five fruit trees of one kind.

So Bai Shanbao gave an order, and Bai Zhuangtou began to find a suitable place to plant fruit trees on the mountain.

He didn't know how to plant those fruit trees, but based on his decades of farming experience, it was enough to choose a place that was relatively flat, with fertile soil and more convenient watering.

So he turned around on the mountain, and finally chose the northeast side, which transitioned from the foot of the mountain to the mountainside.

The soil there is more fertile.

So the trees there are also very dense.

Taking advantage of the winter, Bai Zhuangtou and his long-term workers cut down all the trees in the selected area. After drying, they can build a chicken coop at the foot of the mountain.

That's right, after a heated argument between Bai Shanbao and Manbao, they finally reached an agreement and decided to raise chickens on the wasteland at the foot of the mountain as planned.

Of course, in order not to let the chickens end up turning into pheasants, they need to circle a place to put a fence and build a chicken coop.

In addition, a few thatched cottages have to be built for the long-term workers, so there are quite a few trees needed.

Now there are only three long-term workers in Xiaozhuangzi, which Liu took over from Master Bai, but it is obviously impossible to rely on their three long-term workers for so many things.

Therefore, Mr. Liu generously took out part of the money to hire part-time workers.

Man Bao got her first month when she was close to the water tower, and first registered her brother's name.

Just after selling all the ginger, Shirou and others, who were resting at home recently, rolled up their sleeves and went to work.

When Old Zhou first saw it, he asked Xiao Qian and Feng to go too, and said, "If you don't want wages, you should just help your younger sister."

Of course, Mr. Qian has no objection.

The three children said they wanted to raise chickens, but they didn't know how the chickens were raised. And the three long-term workers obviously didn't know much about it. The slack fences were able to stop the big chickens, and the smaller chickens didn't need to drill. I'm afraid it would be as swaggering in and out as shopping.

Mrs. Qian took Mrs. Feng to tie the fence again, walked around the wasteland at the foot of the mountain that had been cleared, and pushed the chicken coop that had been built to a new position...

Bai Zhuang looked at him, his face slightly red.

The Bai family hired a lot of workers this time, because Manbao and the others decided to clean up the wasteland at the foot of the mountain.

Stone doesn't have to care about it, but all the weeds and trees are cut.

Then the tree stumps on the mountainside in the northeast have to be dug out, and the grass will be cut off and hoeed, which is not a small project.

There was no labor this year, and everyone went to hibernate early in their slack. Oh, no, it was winter to rest, so the young men in the whole village had nothing to do.

When the Bai family heard rumors that they wanted to hire part-time workers, the villagers swarmed there immediately.

Bai Zhuangtou selected twelve young men, and with the help of Xiao Qian and Feng, the construction of Xiao Zhuangzi was progressing at a speed visible to the naked eye.

Even the thatched house that was originally intended to be roughly built was replaced by a yellow mud house after Bai Shanbao and the others visited it once, which was much more spacious and brighter than the original plan.

Man Bao looked at the three long-term workers curiously, and saw that they were squatting on the stone with messy hair, grabbing a steamed bun and nibbling on it, and couldn't help squatting across from them with his own steamed bun.

The three long-term workers and Man Bao glanced at each other, then silently turned around and pointed their backs at her.

Man Bao got up and ran to squat in front of them again, continuing to eat steamed buns with them facing each other.

Three long-term workers:  …

One of the long-term workers with a dirty face, swallowed the last bit of steamed buns in his hand, and asked, "Miss Man, do you have any orders?"

Man Bao shook his head, then nodded again.

She looked at the three long-term workers curiously.

The three of them were wearing the blue cloth clothes that the servants of the Bai family often wore, but the three of them were even dirtier, with several holes torn through, without even a patch.

Her hair was messy and her hands and face were dirty.

It was not the first time for Man Bao to see these three people, but she didn't pay much attention to them before. After all, she had less time and more time here. Most of the time, she was talking to Bai Zhuangtou.

But today they had a rest. She had been here since the morning, wandering around here, and with so many people here today, the three of them were very conspicuous in comparison.

Man Po thinks they are too sloppy.

It was her fourth brother who was the laziest, and they weren't as dirty when they were the dirtiest.

So after hesitating, she couldn't help but ask, "Don't your mother beat you?"

If her brothers dared to come home so dirty, her mother would definitely let her father beat them.

The three long-term workers were a little embarrassed and said, "Why did our mother beat us?"

Man Bao hesitated for a moment and said, "Because you don't wash your hair?"

The three long-term workers touched another steamed bun and continued to eat it, saying indifferently, "Our mother is far away from us. If she is not here, she can't beat us."

"What about your daughter-in-law? You look older than my fourth brother."

The three long-term workers were even more worried, "Miss Man, if we can marry a wife, can we still use it as long-term workers?"

Man Bao was stunned and asked, "You are long-term workers. Don't you earn a lot of money as workers? You have to work every day."

Looking at her brothers, every time they finish their homework, they start to stare at the landlord Bai's house. The landlord's family runs over as long as they recruit a job. They have at least fifteen cents a day, and they can earn one hundred and fifty cents in ten days.
