Chapter 219 Lantern Festival
"This is, it would be strange if my mother is not angry after going back for so many days. But her mother has money and has the confidence. I guess she felt that this daughter-in-law was not easy to manage, so she got off in anger. You said, the third brother, the third brother,
Will you have any objections to your mother?" Zhu Er felt a little strange. Such an important thing, but Zhu San was busy fishing all day long and didn't care at all.
Anyway, that's the third brother's wife, and the third brother doesn't care?
As a brother, he should not discuss his brother's wife, but Zhu Er also thinks that if his wife's family can have a third family and have money, he will be willing to "swallow his anger" a little.
His father was "antied" for his mother for the rest of his life, and he still came here too?
As long as he can give birth to a son, it will be done.
"From childhood to adulthood, when do you think you have understood the third brother?" Zhu Da asked.
Zhu Er said nothing.
Although they are brothers, he knows the big brother and the third brother are in a good relationship.
He likes to hang out with his elder brother, so he is naturally to save trouble and use his brain less.
As for why the third brother likes to "sing against" the elder brother with his younger brother, he knows a little bit, doesn't he just think he and his elder brother are "too stupid" and can only work in silence?
But how could they know that if he and his elder brother didn't work, where would they have the stutter?
While despising him and his elder brother for being "silly", he also ate the food he and his elder brother grew, and he was really thick-skinned.
Zhu Da was silent for a long time and said, "I have a word that my mother said is correct."
Zhu Er asked: "What do you mean?"
"Dad only has a few acres of land, and we have so many brothers, not even one acre is enough for one person. If we don't find some other way out, we will only starve to death."
Zhu Er: “…”
He also became silent.
But, besides farming, what else do they do?
When he looked up at the fishing net in the yard, he couldn't help but feel moved.
"Brother, you say, we are like the third brother, how about fishing? It's so big that we go to a farther place to fight, just don't fight with them. We are brothers, and they don't have such a good deal of face.
Are you willing to give it?"
“To whom?”
"Sell it to people from all over the countryside, there are only three of the third brothers. Can they sell it to people from all over the countryside? It certainly doesn't work, so let's go a little further and sell it to people from even further away. I can't do it, this
Is it harder than farming? As long as you work hard, you will definitely be able to catch fish."
"It's winter soon, and I won't have to go into the water after a long time of catching it."
"Isn't it the same as farming? In winter, there is no way to plant it."
...
Obviously, Zhu Er underestimated Ye Yuran's action ability. Since she had made a "bet" with Old Man Zhu, she agreed that one person was responsible for half of the land, of course it was impossible for her to be silent.
It’s just now that the autumn harvest has just finished, and nothing can be moved, so I didn’t mention it.
October ends, and it is November or December. Whether it is sweet potatoes or rice, it is definitely not suitable.
Ye Yuran plans to turn over the land at that time to prepare for the next spring.
At the same time, plant some cold-resistant plants, such as winter wheat, lettuce, green vegetables, spinach, etc.
By the way, I will leave some of the land to prepare the spring potatoes for January next year. They will be harvested in about 5 to 7 months. By the time around August, I can still grow early winter potatoes and grow them in two seasons a year.
In other words, she would divide the land into two pieces, one for paddy fields, responsible for farming, and the other for dry land, responsible for planting these things.
Paddy fields are different from dry land. They need to be "raising". If they are not well maintained in winter, not only will it be a problem to store water in the next year, but the fertility of the fields may not be enough. At that time, it will definitely affect the harvest.
So before Zhu Da could rest for a few days, he, Zhu Wu and Zhu Qi were called away by Ye Yuran and asked him to help him turn the ground.
After the autumn harvest, there were still half a piece of rice piles left in the field. Ye Yuran did not ask them to clean it up, but instead borrowed a cow from the Li Zheng family and turned it over directly.
"Mom, what's the use of turning the ground at this time? This rice has to be planted until spring tomorrow." Zhu Wu was afraid that his mother had never planted the ground before, so he couldn't figure it out, so he quickly explained to her that the rice was planted in spring, not this
when.
How could Ye Yuran not know? She glanced at Zhu Wu: "Who said I want to plant it now? Haven't you heard a saying that 'If you want to do a good job, you must sharpen your tools first'?"
Zhu Wu honestly replied: "I haven't heard of it."
"If you want to study hard, you won't understand it, right? It means that if you want to do something well, you must first do the preparation work. What I ask you to do now is preparation work.
”
Zhu knew that he had been named by his mother and was assigned to his mother's group, but he didn't expect that his mother's "preparation work" would start from the beginning.
Isn't this preparation a little too early?
But he didn't dare to talk much like Zhu Wu. He honestly took the guy who plowed the field, led the old buffalo and then got off the ground and started plowing.
When Ye Yuran saw the straight plow, he remembered: I have forgotten the transformation of the straight plow.
She quickly called Zhu Wu over and explained it to him like this.
Zhu Wu was a little confused: "What? Is this thing going to be changed?"
"Change. If you don't want to move, you can find someone to change it. In short, in a few days, I will see a bend." Ye Yuran gestured, "Do you understand? If you want to look like this, you need to add another one here.
Things, and here…”
"Wait, mom, you said it a little quickly, I can't remember it." Zhu Wu was given a "heavy task" for the first time, and he felt a little panicked.
Ye Yuran looked disgusted and called Zhu Qi over, asked Zhu Qi to help him carry it down, and then asked Zhu Wu to take it away.
"If you can't remember clearly, just ask Lao Qi, he has a better memory than you."
Zhu Qi, who acted as an "artificial memory", followed Zhu Wu honestly. Zhu Wu remembered what his third brother once said and glanced at this silly brother several times along the way.
He had no idea why he was even worse than a foolish brother at that time?
Well, thinking that he always studied once, he could only rest as he could not let down his unwillingness.
Is there any way? He is indeed not as quick as Lao Qi's reading.
There were no carpenters in Zhujia Village, so they had to go to the next village to find someone.
Although Zhu Wu was not sure if what he said was true, he still tried to make it clear to the old carpenter: "Uncle, I have a deal to discuss with you."
Chai Hong is an old carpenter in the village. After bringing his son Chai Fugui out, he rarely takes out the jobs and basically stays in the village. Unless he sometimes receives some larger jobs, he has to give them.
Son, please help.
He saw a young man in high spirits and suddenly ran over and said he wanted to discuss business with him. He looked at him several times.
If he hadn't been sure that this kid looked pretty, he would have thought the other party was "buried" him and played.
"Which company is from you? Why haven't I seen you before?" Chai Hong did not rush to touch the old cigarette pole in his hand, trying to figure out the other party's background first.
Zhu Wu said: "Does Old Man Zhu know from Zhujia Village? That's my father."
"Old Man Zhu?" Chai Hong turned his mind around, but he didn't remember it.
