Chapter 173: Growing Vegetables in Winter
There were still things to do today, so Song Wei took Heidan and the two little wolf cubs to find Lin Zhen.
Lin Zhen fed the two wolf cubs while she started digging in the yard.
"What are you going to do?"
He had been curious for a long time.
Before Song Jing came, the room next door had been tidied and renovated by them.
No one lives there now, but Song Wei is using it.
She made a rectangular frame out of bamboo and placed it in the room, and now she started pouring soil into the frame.
Not only that, she also used homemade fertilizer.
The fertilizer is made from deer and rabbit droppings, some leaves and other things mixed with black soil.
Song Wei couldn't sit still. It was snowing in the cold weather and everyone else was hibernating at home, but she had to get busy.
“I’m going to grow some vegetables.”
Lin Zhen was like a nanny, holding the two wolf cubs and running behind her.
Little Black Egg was also helping out.
"Growing vegetables? Whatever you plant will die in this winter."
Song Wei glared at him: "You're already talking before you even start."
Lin Zhen: ...He was just telling the truth, why are you angry?
"Of course I know that vegetables can't grow well in cold weather. Didn't you see that I put all the space for growing vegetables inside the house?"
As she spoke, she continued to run into the house, carrying the soil with her.
"When the kang is heated, the room will also become warm. When the room is warm, it will be a different season from the outside. Then won't the vegetables grow?"
Hearing this, Lin Zhen really became interested: "Can this really work? What kind of vegetables are you growing?"
Song Wei said very bluntly: "I don't know whether it can be done or not."
Lin Zhen put the two wolf cubs, who had drunk their fill, on the ground and let them run behind the adults. "You're still talking as if it can be done."
"You have to try it anyway."
Although she is not good at cooking, she can still farm.
With some experience from her previous life and knowledge from related books, plus the planting methods she learned from her aunts when she went to the fields in this life, she used this warm house to try it out since there was no greenhouse.
Lin Zhen rolled up his sleeves and said, "I'll help you plant whatever you want."
He didn't say anything pessimistic, but instead stepped forward to help.
Song Wei handed him the seeds: "I found these in the village, and some were bought in town."
"Carrots, tomatoes, eggplants, green peppers, lettuce, green vegetables, leeks..."
She collected a good collection of vegetable seeds.
The room was big enough, so Song Wei made twenty bamboo baskets, each half a meter wide and two meters long, and placed them in rows in the room. Of course, there was not enough space to put them all on the ground, so she and Lin Zhen made a wooden bracket that could hold two layers of baskets vertically. This way, the ground space occupied was much smaller, and more vegetables could be grown.
"If we had a greenhouse, we wouldn't have to go through so much trouble."
It's a waste of a room. Fortunately, Lin Zhen lives alone. Heidan only comes here occasionally and sleeps with Lin Zhen. There are not many things so the room is empty for her to use.
Her room at the Youth League Institute was too small to conduct this experiment.
The two of them worked for a whole day and planted all the seeds.
After dinner, she prepared to go back to the Youth Hostel: "I'll come back to check in two days."
Lin Zhen: "Not coming tomorrow?"
Song Wei's pretty face turned a little serious: "No, we haven't gotten married yet. It's not appropriate to come to you every day."
Lin Zhenshun climbed up the pole: "Then when are we going to get married?"
Song Wei looked at him and said, "I don't know either."
Both of them were young and inexperienced and were dating for the first time. There was no elder in their family to take care of the situation, so they had no idea how to get engaged or married.
But Lin Zhen understood something from her answer: Song Wei agreed to marry him.
As if struck by a huge surprise, Lin Zhen limped to her side and said, "You...you are going to marry me, right?"
Song Wei is also a decisive person. After spending some time together, she feels that Lin Zhen is a good person and is suitable for living together.
So he nodded: "It's ok to get married."
Lin Zhen immediately said, "I'll go to my grandmother to discuss an auspicious date for us to get engaged first, and we'll get married as soon as my foot is healed."
Marriage is a big day, he must stand in front of Song Wei in perfect condition to marry her and give her the greatest respect.
Song Wei raised her head, a smile on her beautiful face with a rosy complexion.
"OK."
Hearing her agreement, Lin Zhen was so excited and happy that he picked up the petite Song Wei with his amazing arm strength.
Song Wei sat on his arms, her vision suddenly raised and she smiled happily.
There is no mistake in the poem, post, content, and read the book on 6, 9, and bar!
The snow fell on them, adding a nice sense of atmosphere.
Heidan and the two wolf cubs circled around the two of them.
"Sister Song is going to marry my brother and become Heidan's sister-in-law~"
“Ahhhh~”
The little sika deer in the deer shed heard the sound and responded.
The yard seemed very lively.
But Song Wei still had to leave.
Lin Zhen insisted on sending the person back.
Lying on the kang at night, Lin Zhen was so excited that he couldn't sleep.
He wished he could go to his great-grandmother right now to discuss what to buy for the wedding.
But it was very unkind of him to wake up the old man in the middle of the night.
I couldn't sleep, so I turned over and took out the money I had put away.
With the bonuses and allowances from missions over the years, as well as the compensation given by the army after he was injured, he already has more than 3,400 yuan in his bankbook.
More than three thousand, which is definitely a huge sum of money in this era.
Lin Zhen didn't want to let Song Wei down. The house he was living in had to be rebuilt, and all the three turns and one ring could not be missing...
Early the next morning, even though he had only slept for four hours, Lin Zhen got up energetically and went to his great-grandmother's family in the wind and snow to discuss the marriage.
Song Wei and Su Fang from the Youth League Institute made breakfast together, and while they were eating, an uninvited guest arrived.
Song Wei thought that the Luo family would stay quiet for a few days before coming.
Four people from the Luo family, including the son-in-law, came. When they saw Su Fang eating, they immediately stared at her and rushed over to grab the food without any hesitation.
"You are such a jinx, you are eating well outside. You are already well and you don't even want to go home. You want me, your mother-in-law, to invite you. Your husband hasn't been eating or sleeping well these past few days. Do you still look like a good daughter-in-law?"
Mrs. Luo's hand was about to touch the mixed flour steamed buns in the bowl, and Song Wei simply swung the stool and threw it at her.
"You are a reincarnated bandit. You came up and robbed me of my food. Did you just get out of jail?"
Mrs. Luo retracted her hand quickly, but was also hit.
"What are you doing? I eat my wife's food. What does it have to do with you, an outsider, to teach my daughter-in-law a lesson? Why are you speaking so harshly?"
Song Wei stuffed a steamed bun into her mouth: "If you are an ugly person, don't blame me for speaking harshly."
Su Fang's face was pale and her body was stiff, and her body was trembling slightly.
Even though I kept telling myself not to be afraid, my body's instinctive reaction and fear of the Luo family were so ingrained in my bones that it was like a nightmare that I couldn't control at all.
Luo Dazhuang ran over, grabbed Su Fang's arm and pulled her up.
"Fuck it, you really don't plan to go home, are you hooking up with some guy from the Youth Hostel and planning to run away? I'm going to beat you to death, you bitch!"
