Chapter 61 Catching Fish

"Dad is so amazing. I can't say I can do something else in the future. I heard from my cousin that someone is building a greenhouse. Is it possible to grow vegetables?"

Zilan listened to Yang Yu's saying that using greenhouses to grow vegetables is generally used to grow flowers, but some people have started to use them to grow vegetables, but they are basically the nobles who can afford it, so the cost is not cheap.

"Yes, I plan to get one for our farm. I asked for some seeds at sea, which are said to be vegetable seeds from their country. I plan to give it a try. This way I can also eat a handful of green leafy vegetables in winter."

There are quite a lot of vegetables here, but they must not be compared with modern times. Moreover, there are almost no greens in winter. There are no off-season vegetables to eat. At most, they are stored radishes and potatoes and cabbage, and nothing else.

In winter, it is mostly potatoes and red potatoes, and a tofu, but it cannot be eaten every day, so most of them are soaked in dried vegetables. In mid-autumn, all kinds of vegetables and fruits are harvested. Cut them open and dried them into dried vegetables, which are the dried vegetables after dehydration.

This is easy to store and soak in hot water in advance, and it is a dish at least.

"It's great. Is there a hot spring here? Then I want to learn Fushui, Dad, I want to learn."

Zilan kicked and ate in her father's arms, clamoring to learn how to swim because she could swim and could not explain if she didn't learn.

"Okay, your mother will let her teach you, and learn to save yourself if you fall into the water."

Song Zhengtian was very fond of his daughter and obeyed everything. He basically never refused his daughter's request.

"Just make a fuss. The farm has not been repaired yet. I don't know if the hot spring ear room is well repaired. I have to check it out."

Yang glared at her daughter in anger, and Zilan grimaced at her and laughed happily.

"That's great, I've long wanted to learn."

Shuhui also slapped her hands and smiled happily.

After wandering around the yard, Zilan couldn't help but feel excited, jumped out of his father's arms, pulled Shuhui to run around the yard and played wildly.

Song Zhengtian didn't care about them, but instead taught farming knowledge with four boys, which was one of the subjects. Agriculture was the top priority. If they wanted to go to court, they could not avoid this knowledge and they had to learn it.

Zilan and Shuhui ran a long way, and when they came back, they wore a garland on their heads, and they came back with a hand in hand.

"Yo! Who made it up? It's pretty good."

Yang tilted his head and saw it, and couldn't help but smile.

Shuhui went up to show her, "Sister made it up, sister, sister is so good-looking, isn't it?"

"It looks good, we Hui'er is the best."

"whee!"

Shuhui circled around them and played hide-and-seek with Zilan. The breeze blew and the vision was wide. The golden wheat fields indicate that the harvest was about to arrive, giving people a sense of solid satisfaction.

The children's silver bell-like laughter lingered around, and Song Zhengtian narrowed his eyes with a smile, and there was a hint of happiness on his face.

He took everyone around and asked them to go around. Song Zhengtian gave some instructions to the manager and some places also needed to be repaired. The ear rooms of the hot springs are separated, but they still need to be repaired.

The yards everywhere are quite neat, but the furniture is a bit damaged and needs to be replaced.

The rent for tenants was also reduced, 10% lower than most. His family did not need to be so harsh, and reputation was more important than money.

Regarding the mountains and forests behind, some of them were also bought. Yang explained that he would buy some incense wood to plant them. He would plant them every year and replant the wasteland to leave blessings for future generations. Incense shops will also be able to use them in the future.

The manager took notes one by one and then arranged someone to do things.

At noon, they lived in the main courtyard. The boys chose their favorite courtyard to rest. They ate the food in their own courtyards. The farm food is simple but better than the original flavor. The ingredients are fresh and delicious. Zilan and Shuhui like it very much, and their stomachs are round.

After running all morning, the two children were tired and fell asleep on the kang.

After taking a nap for an hour, Zilan and Shuhui whispered, took off their skirts, changed into the short dress of the farm, short coats and trousers, combed them in a braid, and ran away like a farm child.

"Follow Muxiang, don't let go to dangerous places."

Yang quickly shouted, and Muxiang and Chenxiang immediately followed.

It was the first time Zilan and Shuhui came here. The manager sent his little granddaughter and a few close and sensible children from the chef's house to play with the children.

There are so many things that the farm children can play with. Zilan has been looking forward to it. He changed his clothes carefully and planned to catch fish. I heard that there is a river and snails here.

"Brother, let's go back to grab some snails and fish. I promised my grandfather and grandmother to bring them some back and taste some freshness, and take them with water to keep them and take them back."

Zi Lan still remembers this.

"Okay, let's catch a little first, and then catch some tomorrow at noon. If you live for a long time, you won't die. You can catch snails in the river. I'll catch fish for you. Brother Qi, look at the sisters."

Zi Yan arranged for two sisters to do something light and easy and not dangerous, and went to catch fish with Yang Yu and Yang Lin.

Chenxiang had a good eye for picking up a small bucket with a little water inside, and then grabbed the snails from behind. Zilan and Shuhui picked up the snails and put them in the bucket. They were busy showing that Muxiang didn't argue about this.

It is not difficult to catch snails, but this season is quite plump. Zilan also found a lot of searches all the way. A few children grabbed them together, and after a while, they grabbed two small buckets of snails, which was enough for everyone to have a meal.

Zi Yan also worked together to catch several fish. Although the clothes were wet, everyone was very happy and laughed constantly.

Everyone returned home with a lot of loads and went to pick some perilla leaves for fish and snails, and sent them to the kitchen.

"Oh, so much, I can't finish it."

"Then leave some for us. I want to take it back and try it for my grandfather and grandmother. Thank you for your worries."

Zilan thanked him politely.

"Oh, I dare not act like this. I will keep it for you. It will be delicious if you keep it for one more day to spit out all the mud and sand. Leave it to me."

"Thank you, aunt, just leave us a small bucket. Let's eat the rest for you. Leave a portion for a few brothers and sisters. I've been playing with us for a long time. There are still some fish here, and I'll give you the extra ones."

Shuhui also followed Zilan's example and thanked him politely.

"Thank you, my little master, this is what we should do."

The cook seemed very happy. The master did not treat him harshly, and they were more at ease. The master was kind and could live a good life.

After playing with a lot of clothes, my clothes were wet. Muxiang took them back to change clothes, washed up and prepared for a while before dinner started.

"We can eat snails later, but the chefs have caught them in advance. We may not be able to eat them tomorrow. We have to raise them for a day and spit out mud and sand."

Zi Lan shook her head and said that she hadn't eaten such snacks for a long time.

"It doesn't matter. If you can't eat, we'll take it back. At worst, we'll catch some tomorrow."
