Picking Up a General to Plow the Fields

Chapter 24 The Orion Sun Family

Lian Ze raised his head: "Sister, do you really want to go?"

Lian Fangzhou nodded and said with a smile: "Don't worry! Sun Lie has been there so many times, hasn't he returned well? Where can I go, where I can't go, and how far he can go in that forest, he must have no idea in his heart. Qing! Follow him, nothing will happen!"

Seeing that he couldn't persuade her, Lian Ze gave a dull "Oh".

Lian Fangzhou looked around and found that in addition to forests far and near, there are also many wastelands with short shrubs and weeds that are suitable for farming.

Lian Fangzhou couldn't help but look at his eyes: After all, this is ancient times. If it is left now, let alone wasteland, I am afraid that the woodland has been cultivated.

"So much wasteland, it's a pity that we don't have much energy. It would be great if we could cultivate it! We can plant a lot of things!" Lian Fangzhou couldn't help but sigh.

"Sister," Lian Ze glanced at her and said with a smile: "How easy is it! To reclaim wasteland is to prove it, send someone to measure and estimate the price, you have to pay, and then go to the county office to file for the record. Take the title deed, this counts!"

"More money!" Lian Fangzhou understood it, no wonder no one was reclaiming it!

"How much is an acre?" she asked hurriedly.

"I don't know about this." Lian Ze shook his head and said, "No matter how much, we can't afford it anyway!"

"That's what you said!" Lian Fangzhou smiled and said, "When we have money, we can give it a try. They are all mountainous areas, not fertile fields, so I don't think it will be expensive!"

It’s also a good thing to spend some money to get the title deed...

"Nevertheless, it depends on whether it is worth it or not," Lian Ze said again: "After the wasteland is reclaimed, you will have to pay taxes every year! It seems to be 300 yuan for an acre of land."

"..." It turns out that the ancient taxes are so numerous!It would be great if there was a loan to benefit farmers!

The four of them had been busy for a long time, and finally they dug up all the sweet potatoes.Lian Ze and Lian Fangzhou used baskets to install them. One of them picked a small half of the basket. Lian Fangqing and Lian Che also took a bamboo basket, each carrying a basket.

The four people moved back and forth three times like ants, and finally moved all the sweet potatoes back home.

In the past, they were stacked directly in the corner of a room, but Lian Fangzhou let them all be stacked in the attic.

The attic is dry, sweet potatoes will not rot and can be better preserved, and the water contained in sweet potatoes will slowly evaporate more, so that the sugar content in sweet potatoes will increase and they will taste sweeter.

In fact, there are many ways to eat sweet potatoes. In addition to making sweet potato porridge and baking on the stove, you can also boil sweet potatoes in syrup. They can peel off the skin and cut into slices and put on a thin batter to fry them in a pan. They can be tossed with a plane and dried. It can be made into sweet potato shreds, which can be steamed and cut into petals and spread out into dried sweet potatoes in the sun. If it is ground into flour, it can be made into various flavors of pastries, and it can be made into sweet potato flour. ...

However, as far as Lianjia’s current economic situation is concerned, many ways to eat Lianfangzhou can only be reviewed in his head.

Sweet potato flour and sweet potato cakes are the farthest away; what about boiled sugar water, sugar?How much oil is gained by frying it in a frying pan, Lian Ze can eat her!

The only thing I can think about is to make some sweet potato shreds and dry some sweet potatoes.

That's it, I can't do more, because after this treatment, although the taste is much better, it is basically in the category of snacks.And they currently need this sweet potato to fill their stomachs!

Therefore, we can only make some sacrifices and save some for Chinese New Year.

After eating dinner early, Lian Fangzhou forced Lian Ze to go with her to the village head Sun Changxing's house and asked about going to Xianteng Mountain.

Sun Changxing’s family was a foreigner who had no land and only had two or three acres of thin land. They were even poorer than Lian’s. They lived in a thatched shed. One can imagine the situation at home.

However, what Lian Fangzhou admired most was that Sun Changxing and his wife shrank their clothes and went on a diet and sent their only 13-year-old son Sun Ming to the county school.I heard that the results are not bad, and he is one of the five people who are expected to be admitted to the Academy next year.

It is precisely because the couple has to pay a large sum of money for this every year, they have been unable to buy fertile land, and Sun Changxing had to venture into Xianteng Mountain again and again.

When Lian Fangzhou and Lian Ze came, they were sitting at a simple table for dinner.

On the table there was a plate of unknown vegetables, a small dish of black pickles, and two bowls of thin sweet potato porridge. The couple sat facing each other.

When Lian Fangzhou smiled and called "Uncle Sun, Aunt Sun" in, Sun Changxing and his wife Miao were both stunned.

He answered "Ah!", wiped his mouth, stood up a little surprised, and smiled: "Aren't these Fangzhou and Aze? You are here—"

Sun Changxing is an outsider and he is very polite to everyone in the village.But because I live on the edge of the village, I basically don't have much contact with people in the village.

Just like at this moment, he can't figure out when he has been in contact with this Lian's sister and brother after searching his stomach.

His inquiring eyes couldn't help but look at his wife: Did you call them?

Miao was also puzzled, and shook his head gently.

Sun Changxing smiled at them, and Miao also smiled and greeted them to sit down, "The home is too simple, just laughed!"

"Uncle Sun and Aunt Sun are polite! It's that we interrupted your meal! You'd better eat first, and it's not too late to talk about it later!" Lian Fangzhou smiled and said sorry, and sat down with Lian Ze.

Sun Changxing doesn't know what they are here, where can he eat?He smiled and said: "It's okay, it's okay, you say, let's talk first!"

Seeing his confusion, Lian Fangzhou spoke straightforwardly and smiled: "That's it. I don't know when Uncle Sun will go to Xianteng Mountain again. We want to go with Uncle Sun."

"Huh?" Sun Changxing and Miao's eyes widened, they were stunned.

"What are you talking about?" Sun Changxing was surprised: "You are going to Xianteng Mountain? What are you going to do?"

There was a little alert in his tone: Could it be that these siblings also want to go hunting?But where would they actually be?I don’t want to share with myself...

That's not enough, it's not enough!

"Of course we can't hunt. Everyone has the skills of Uncle Sun!" Lian Fangzhou said with a smile: "We just want to see if there are any mushrooms and other wild products, so we can get some Chinese New Year."

She added another sentence: "You know what our family is like..."

Sun Changxing and Miao couldn't help but glance at each other, and both couldn't help feeling soft.

Although the specific circumstances of the two families are different, there is a saying that a happy family has the same happiness, and an unfortunate family has its own misfortune.

Both of them are of the unfortunate kind, and it is not an exaggeration to say that they have the same disease.Lian Fangzhou's words naturally resonated with them.

Sun Changxing sighed softly, just about to agree, Miao's heart jumped, and he said hurriedly: "How can this be? Fangzhou, your sister and brother are still young, so far mountain road, can you bear it? And ,Too dangerous!"

Miao said, winking at her husband again and again.

What if something happens to Lian Fangzhou sister and brother?Their family is an outsider, and they have their tails in the first place. How can they ask for trouble?

Sun Changxing immediately understood what his wife meant. He smiled "hehe" and was about to refuse. Lian Fangzhou hurriedly said with a smile: "Uncle Sun, Aunt Sun, in fact, just let Uncle Sun lead us to recognize the way, our sister and brother. It's not the ignorant kid anymore, can you run around and cause trouble when you get there? And, just this time, just this time! By the way, you wait!"

Lian Fangzhou turned and went out as he said, bringing in a melon of rice that was at the door.The so-called melon calabash refers to the white melon that is grown old and is cut in half from the middle, hollowing out the flesh of the melon inside, which can be used to scoop water.

"Our sisters and brothers are not embarrassed to let Uncle Sun lead the way for nothing. After all, we are not familiar with the Xianteng Mountain. We have to ask Uncle Sun to tell us on the road what we should pay attention to, where we can go and where we can't go! This little rice is no respect Please don't dislike Sun Shu and Sun..." Lian Fangzhou smiled shyly.

Sun Changxing and Miao couldn't help their eyes light up when they saw the scoop of rice.

For people who have no paddy fields, rice is the most expensive and rarest thing.Seeing rice makes their eyes brighter and their hearts jumping even more than seeing silver.This is a kind of obsession, a kind of obsession to pursue.

Girls, tickets!
