Picking Up a General to Plow the Fields

"I originally wanted to ship it home tomorrow!" Lian Fangzhou smiled, and a few people started together and moved the firewood from the donkey cart and stacked them in a corner of the yard.

"By the way, can it be cleaned up today?" Lian Fangzhou couldn't help asking.

A Jane thought for a while and said: "It should not be possible. I guess I can pull another five or six big cars like this! Tomorrow some people can continue to clean up, and some can first reclaim the land!"

Lian Fangzhou nodded with a "hmm".

Lian Ze said: "Sister, should the cattle hired tomorrow come?"

"Yes," Lian Fangzhou said with a smile: "With twelve cattle, do you think the land can be cultivated in three or four days?"

Lian Fangzhou turned to ask A Jane.

A Jane thought for a while, nodded and smiled: "Three days should be enough! However, it may take two or three days to trim the plowed ground once."

After all, cattle can only plow the ground. The soil in the plowed field is large and large. To grow crops, you must use a hoe to smash the large soil to make it evenly.

Because this is a reclaimed wasteland, immediately after plowing the ground, the ground must be evened out. By the way, all the grass roots and the like can be cleared out, otherwise the grass roots may have slowed down and immediately grasped the soil firmly.

"I think it's almost the same!" Lian Fangzhou nodded with a smile, wondering whether to hire more people.

She was still thinking, and Ajian had already said: "When the land at Sanchakou comes down, I'm afraid I have to hire a few more people."

"I'm thinking about this!" Lian Fangzhou said, and smiled at A Jian.

"Sister, let's go to the field to help too, okay? Brother said that we have to load the car back!" Lian Che and Lian Fangqing asked.

Lian Fangzhou saw that the stump and roots of the car had been unloaded. Seeing Lian Che and Lian Fangqing eager to try, they looked at A Jian.

The two little guys were extremely on the road, and immediately looked at Ajian eagerly and begged.

A Jane is always very talkative, so he smiled and said, "Then go! Don't be naughty on the ground!"

Lian Che and Lian Fangqing cheered and agreed, and the two of them climbed into the donkey cart happily.

"Let's go first!" A Jian nodded to Lian Fangzhou.

Lian Fangzhou smiled and let out an "um", went to help open the courtyard door and watched them go.

A Jane and the others ran back and forth two more times before finishing work. The corners of the yard were already piled up like hills.

According to Ajian’s estimation, even if the entire land was recovered, there would still be as many as two or three.

In the words of Grandma Sangu, the firewood burned almost a year.

But it's not a problem to stack them all in the yard.

Fortunately, there was also a large piece of flat land next to the yard. Lian Fangzhou said okay to A Jian, and those who would be transported back later would be placed outside the yard.

After breakfast the next day, A Jian, Lian Fangzhou, and Lian Ze went to Shito Pingdi together.

Today, the workers holding the oxen and the rakes also came. They were gathering together and talking. When they saw them, they smiled and called "the boss", asking how to do this job?

Lian Fangzhou and A Jian made arrangements.

Scatter the cattle so that they can plow the flat ground, and a piece of land has to be plowed back and forth twice.As for the places where the cattle cannot plow, let the previous people dig with a hoe.

Five people were left to continue the cleanup work yesterday. The remaining workers and the workers leading the cattle were divided into several groups as usual, starting from different directions.

Even the lunch prepared by the family did not say that the wages were paid in a timely manner, and the big guy was very motivated. After the assignment was completed, he smiled and agreed and took the initiative to get to work.

A Jian, Lian Ze, and Lian Fangzhou went to see for a while. A Jian and Lian Ze still carried the cleaned firewood to their homes, while Lian Fangzhou went back first.

Twelve more people were eating today, and she had to go back to help her grandmother Sangu.

When she returned home, Grandma Sangu had already mixed the noodles. When she woke up, she could steam the buns. She was pancakes.Lian Fangqing was washing the vegetables, while Lian Che was helping to burn the fire.

Today, both the steamed buns and pancakes have been increased by nearly half, which is not a small task.

Seeing Lian Fangzhou's return, Sangu's grandmother immediately said, "Fangzhou, there is no big bone soup today, but there is still a little bit of pork belly! How about giving cabbage soup at noon today? Set aside some coriander. It’s actually quite good! It’s better to have a sip of hot soup in such cold weather than nothing!"

Lian Fangzhou smiled and said, "Didn’t I buy two chickens yesterday? Just kill them! Don’t we still have a lot of dried mushrooms? Use dried mushrooms to stew a pot of thick chicken soup, wait for the afternoon I will go to the city again and buy some big bones and meat back!"

"What?" Grandma Sangu stopped the spatula in her hand in surprise, and asked in disbelief, "You said you want to kill the chicken?"

"Yeah!" Lian Fangzhou smiled: "Chop some more chicken, mince and fry the pork belly! It's just right, let's have a good meal tonight! I've been exhausted these two days!"

Grandma Sangu couldn't help but "Oh!" she said distressedly: "You are really! Look at you, the prodigal! Those two roosters are as big, I said, why are you buying roosters, waste food and can't lay eggs? It turned out to be killed and eaten!"

Lian Fangzhou smiled and said: "If you get old, don't feel bad. I promised that the big guys can't talk. It's not counted! The work of these two days is very beautiful, and we can save a lot of heart! It's worth it!"

Grandma Sangu's mouth twitched disapprovingly, she didn't think it was worth it.

However, she sighed softly: "Finally, you have said so, what else can I say! Then kill it, boil a pot of hot water, that's fast!"

Lian Fangzhou was amused by the distressed look of Sangu's grandmother, and set the fire on the fire and filled the pot with water. Still asking Lian Che to help distracted and take care of her, she took the basket to fill the dried mushrooms.

After boiling the hot water, pour the dried mushrooms into a tub and soak.

Lian Fangqing came to help, smiled and said, "Sister, I can pull the hair from the cock's tail to make a shuttlecock?"

Why is this wrong?Lian Fangzhou agreed with a smile, plucking her hair at will before fading with hot water.Lian Fangqing cheered very happily.

Children in the country don't have much to entertain. A wooden knife, a small slingshot, a piccolo made of fine bamboo, a top made of wood, a shuttlecock made of chicken feathers, etc. are good things.

However, it is rare to kill chickens twice a year. It is not easy to want the bright long hairs on the tails of the cock. There are also the naughty children who caught the big cock and plucked the beautiful long hairs on the tail. Of course, they could not escape the meal. Fate.

Obviously Lian Fangqing and Lian Che would not do such a thing.
