Chapter 103 Small Lock

In mid-April, in this land in the northeast, all things began to recover. It seems that overnight, various wild vegetables such as small root garlic, abalone, bitter hemp, mother-in-law, plantain, purslane, ash cabbage, etc. , springing up like bamboo shoots after a rain, a piece of green, making the land that has been silent for winter become alive.

The women and children of Sun Aotun'er, all carrying baskets and small hoes, dig wild vegetables all over the mountains and plains, and cabbage and potatoes have been eaten all winter. It is rare to have fresh wild vegetables to change the taste without spending money. Who would? Miss this great opportunity?

Moreover, those who keep geese and ducks can also take advantage of this time to dig some wild vegetables and go back to feed the ducks and geese. With these wild vegetables, the family can save food for the old nose.

As for the men, they have also started to get busy. According to the rules, at this time of the year, they start to transport manure into the fields, plough the fields to make ridges, and prepare to start the spring ploughing.

Han Mingcui also stayed in the production team every day, carefully raising the gang of ducklings and goslings under her control. The ducklings and goslings were all just hatched, so they could not go out to put them out, so they could only mix the food and feed them. The wild vegetables that feed them are dug from the mountains by the children in the village.

Digging wild vegetables for the production team is not in vain. One pound of wild vegetables is worth one work point, but this is not always the case. Now that wild vegetables have just come out, they are rare and scarce, so one pound of wild vegetables can be credited with one work point. When it is dense and numerous, it takes seven or eight catties to get a work point.

Han Mingxiu had already agreed with the captain that she would not go to the ground this year, just like the children who couldn't go to the ground, it was a centimeter to dig wild vegetables.

Although this practice is a bit of a cheat, the principle of the production team is that the more work you get, the less you get, and the less you work. There are few, so no one cares whether you are lazy or not. At most, they laugh at you behind your back, but no one is clinging to you.

Therefore, Han Mingxiu can choose to dig wild vegetables at will. On the first day of construction, she carried a small basket with a small hoe and went into the mountain with a group of children.

The children who dig wild vegetables are usually seven or eight-year-old radish heads. The older children will not come to dig wild vegetables. They either go to school or work in the fields with their parents to earn more work points. Go, no one is digging wild vegetables to earn these three or two work points.

Therefore, Han Mingxiu, a 16-year-old girl, hangs out with a bunch of children all day long. If she doesn't have any psychological quality, she is really embarrassed to do this!

However, these children are not all children. Among them, there is a half-old child in his teens, called Xiaosuoer. Xiaosuo is eleven years old. He looks black, thin and small, with physical strength. It was too bad to be able to do the work in the fields, so I came to dig wild vegetables with them.

Xiao Suo'er is a child with a hard life. When he was three years old, his mother died. His father married him a stepmother. The stepmother treated him very badly. Long-term abuse caused him to be severely malnourished, and even at the age of eleven, he was not as tall and strong as a ten-year-old child.

However, even though he is long and dry, this little lock is still very clever, and he has a lot of crazy ideas in his heart. It is estimated that if he was not so clever, he would have been beaten to death by his stepmother.

Han Mingxiu had been in contact with these children for a few days, and soon targeted Xiaosuo.

She didn't want to waste her good time every day digging wild vegetables. She still had a lot of meaningful things to do. After observing for a few days, she secretly found Xiaosuo and reached an agreement with him.

The content of the agreement is to let Xiaosuo help her dig vegetables every day, and for every two centimeters earned for her, she will give him a big cake of pure rice noodles to eat.

Xiaosuo can't get enough to eat every day. Now that he heard that he can eat big pancakes, he immediately agreed as if he had been beaten with blood.

With someone to help, Han Mingxiu had more time. When she was not busy, she began to plant another quarter of the family's private plot and front and rear gardens.

Her family's garden is very large. The front and back gardens together have as much as half an mu of land. In addition to the four-quarter private land that has not been planted, the total land is almost one mu.

Han Mingxiu planted potatoes in two of the not-so-good fields and planted corn in the other two. Although she still has a lot of corn in her space, she has so many animals at home, she must be sure She had to be fed with corn. If everyone saw that she didn't grow corn and raised livestock so well, they would definitely doubt her.

So, in order not to be suspected by others, she had to plant two parts of the corn, which is for others to see.

The front and rear gardens were also planned by her, all vegetables were grown, and none of the grains were grown.

In this era of grain as the key link, many villagers grow grain in their gardens, leaving only a small piece of land to grow green vegetables, but Han Mingxiu did the opposite. She has planted vegetables, including spinach, coriander, celery, stinky greens, leeks, radishes and other green leafy greens; as well as peppers, eggplants, melons, snow red, ginger thorns, mustard greens, tomatoes, etc. She planted all the vegetable seeds she could find, so that the dinner table would be richer in the future!

The eldest sister has no opinion at all about her prodigal behavior of only growing vegetables and not food. The eldest sister thought that she planted so many vegetables to give to Uncle Gao and Aunt Gao in the future, so not only did she not object, but she also held Attitude of support and encouragement too!

Planting the seeds in the backyard is much simpler. She planted two rows of sunflowers along the four walls, and planted beans, loofah, cylinder beans, carob melons or cucumbers in the middle of each two sunflowers. Set up a frame for these creeping plants, and when they start to climb, just climb up the sunflower pole directly, killing two birds with one stone.

In addition, in the inner circle of the two rows of sunflowers, she also planted a circle of sweet poles. This circle of sweet poles was planted purely for her two little nephews. Children in this era are no better than later generations, and children are usually nothing. Eat snacks and plant some sweet sticks for them, which can be regarded as adding a little sweet taste to their childhood!

These three circles of sunflowers and sweet poles are tall and large crops, and when they all grow up, they will be enough to block the sight of others peeping into her back garden.

She intends to use the backyard mainly for aquaculture. When the garden is full of chickens, ducks and geese, she is afraid of being seen and jealous, so she deliberately grows some tall crops and blocks other people's sight around, so she doesn't have to be afraid of being seen by others. Those things are red-eyed.

Except for sunflowers and sweet stalks, she planted sweet potatoes in the middle part of the back garden.

Sweet potato is a common food in daily life, which is rich in starch, dietary fiber, carotene and various vitamins and minerals, and has great edible value; It is a very healthy food for emphysema, anti-cancer, weight loss, anti-aging, longevity and beauty.

In her last life, she liked sweet potatoes very much, and she is the same in this life, so she needs a variety.

Thank you Wangwang for a flower. In addition, there are a lot of girls on the wireless side who complain that Yaoer has less updates, but you know, Yaoer is in the public period now, and four or five thousand words are updated every day, which is really a lot!
