Chapter 32 Planting Sugar Cane
These days, Jiang Zhi has not been idle for anything other than squeezing wheat.
She asked Uncle Ye to plow the two acres of dry land. Sugarcane planting requires a loose and deep soil environment. Uncle Ye's cow took great effort. This time, Jiang Zhi said that he would have to take the money away.
Then she paid for money to hire someone to dig it up and compost it.
She really couldn't get through the stumbling blocks herself, which was so troublesome.
Money can make the devil push the mill. She composted the ground and even made people cover these things with mud to make sure that she would not step on it when she went down the ground.
Today, Jiang Yu brought two acres of sugarcane from the land, and Jiang Zhi wanted to bury the sugarcane into the soil.
As long as the sugar cane is planted for a year, it is not necessary to replant the remaining few years. The roots under the ground will automatically sprout and new sugar cane will grow again.
"Big girl, are you really not planning to plant beans here?" Zhou's sister-in-law Sun came to see the fun. Her house was close to the Ye family. She was always the first to know what happened to the Ye family.
"Yes, everyone planted sugarcane. My elder brother has a way to sell sugarcane, which is more cost-effective than planting beans." Jiang Zhi did not tell her purpose of growing sugarcane. After that, she would not be here if she had to squeeze juice and boil sugar. Jiang Yu would prepare a special place to extract sugar cane sugar.
"Hey, your family has many children and few investments. It's time to plan. In the future, Erlang wants to get married and his younger sister needs a dowry, but they all rely on you."
When Aunt Sun thought of Jiang Zhi pulling three children alone, she felt sorry for Jiang Zhi.
If Dalang was still alive, Jiang Zhi would not be so sad.
Jiang Zhi didn't know that Li sympathized with her. When it comes to Ye Erlang and Ye Xiaomei's future, Jiang Zhi just smiled.
What do you want to do so far? Let’s live the present first.
"Little sister, I see that the rest of the village are planting rice seedlings. My brother happened to catch up and help you plant the rice seedlings together." Jiang Yu remembered what he saw along the way, and thought that his family had been so cute that he had to pick up his trousers when he went to the field.
"I can't ask for it." Jiang Zhi wanted to laugh at this moment, okay? It was like it was cold and someone helped her add clothes.
When Ye Dalang was alive, he and Erlang almost completed the transplanting of rice seedlings together. The women at home did not go to the paddy fields, which is also the so-called rule for men to farm and women to weave.
There is also the problem of women's appearance. They take off their trousers and reveal the woman's white thighs, and they are old feudal people.
Jiang Zhi didn't care about these things, and someone would care for her.
All she thought about was that she could help with her homework.
Jiang Yu brought professional people to plant sugarcane. Jiang Zhi and her three children were studying and observing, and after they learned it, they went to the field to practice. The two acres of sugarcane planting were very fast, and the spacing between sugarcane planting was at least three feet. She didn’t plant much sugarcane on these two acres of land.
Many families in the village have this thing, but they are only grown in the vegetable garden as fruit. Usually there are only a dozen. This is the first time I have seen it in large quantities like the Ye family's big house.
Therefore, when Jiang Zhi's family was planting sugarcane, many people in the village came to observe.
"Didn't it mean that the Ye family's big house is so poor that it can't be broken? But there is no food in this land, and instead of sugarcane? Can this thing fill your stomach?"
"Er Shuan's family, don't you know this? The Ye family is poor, but their wife is not poor, right?" someone else pointed at Jiang Yu and said, "See, brother of the mother's family, he is not a bad person at first glance."
"It's good that my mother's family has the confidence. If I could have such an older brother, I would have to wake up in my dreams."
Jiang Zhi cooked a meal at noon. The farm worker was hungry quickly. She didn't hesitate to rice and put it in a steamer, steamed the pot of rice, and fryed four or five dishes in a large portion. After eating, she continued to work in the fields.
Ye Xiaomei helped to clean the dishes, but Jiang Zhi didn't let her go to the floor anymore. Ye Xiaomei watched Ye Heng at home and used to tidy up and weave cloth.
The thread I bought last time has not knitted a piece of cloth yet, so Ye Xiaomei has accelerated the progress.
Two acres of sugarcane were planted for a day for three or five people.
It was getting dark and the work was over. Jiang Zhi asked for some of the remaining seedlings, and Jiang Yu asked someone to take the rest back.
Jiang Yushuang Lide rice. He rarely eats the food made by Jiang Zhi, and now he finds it particularly delicious.
Just served the dishes and unknowingly, I cooked three bowls of rice.
Jiang Zhi smiled and looked at him. This big bite of dry rice made people very appetizing. The whole family was overeating tonight.
After eating and drinking, Jiang Yu put down his chopsticks and said, "Little sister, we will go and plant the rice seedlings tomorrow."
"Okay, tomorrow morning I will use water to pour water through the nursery. My younger sister and I will pull the seedlings. Erlang, you and your elder brother go to the field." Jiang Zhi looked at Ye Erlang.
"Come." Erlang nodded.
After getting along with sugarcane planting today, Ye Erlang and Ye Xiaomei felt that their sister-in-law's elder brother didn't hate them that much.
After realizing it, they suddenly realized it.
I'm afraid my brother-in-law hates his brother-in-law?
That's why the nose is not the nose, and the eyebrows are not the eyebrows.
At night, Jiang Yu slept in Ye Erlang's room. When Ye Heng saw his uncle, he cried and made a fuss to sleep with his uncle, so the three of them slept in the same bed.
An adult man with two children, and the bed is not crowded.
Ye Heng usually stays in Jiang Zhi's house, and Jiang Zhi has to find ways to avoid him when entering and leaving the space. Now, she can feel at ease to go in tonight.
All kinds of seeds she buried grew like crazy, and now some of the fruit trees are taller than her. As for the vegetables, they not only do not die, but also grow better.
Jiang Zhi planned to do an experiment on herself, so she pulled a handful of vegetables, which could be eaten raw. The environment in the space was good, and the dishes were not wormed or had no medicine. She put them directly into her mouth and started chewing them.
It's not bitter at all, but it has a sweet taste.
This fresh taste refreshed Jiang Zhi, so fresh.
Eating this dish makes people feel like they are floating in ecstasy.
She ate all the torn handfuls. She would definitely be fine after eating such fresh dishes.
After eating the vegetables, Jiang Zhi sat cross-legged on the cushion and meditated. Recently, she was busy working in farming and practicing her soul. She calculated using the simple hourglass at home that she could meditate for one hour, which is two hours.
Much longer than before.
After coming out of meditation, Jiang Zhi was lying in a drowsy manner on the bed and soon fell asleep.
There was no dream all night, and Jiang Zhi didn't wake up early the next day. Ye Xiaomei and Ye Erlang got up early to cook rice paste, and also followed Jiang Zhi to make scallion oil pancakes. Ye Heng washed himself and sat on the threshold to play with the grasshoppers that Jiang Yu made for him.
Jiang Yu stretched his waist and glanced at Jiang Zhi's house.
Didn’t this girl say that she would get up early in the morning to pull out the seedlings? Little liar.
Jiang Yutian went to pick up the well water and poured it through the seedling nursery. On the way, he met villagers who had worked early. Some farmers who had never seen or had no deep impression of Jiang Yu even met Jiang Yu.
