Chapter 028 Going to the Field to Raise Rice Seedlings
What could it be?
The master said that he would go to the Xingyun Temple again in a few days. He had something to say. Could this be it?
With doubts, Yang Zengyue and Chen Jiaer returned home.
They made an appointment with Uncle Fan to work in the rice fields at three o'clock in the afternoon. It was only eleven o'clock now, so they could have lunch and take a nap before going.
Sikunshan is quiet.
At the same time, a group of people entered the territory of Sikun Mountain.
They asked the villagers about Shi Jiuyue's whereabouts, but the villagers shook their heads and said they didn't know.
The villagers of Sikunshan only know Jiuxiao, and have never heard of Shi Jiuyue or Shi Rongchuan. In addition, Zengyue's surname is not Shi.
The information these people inquired about did not match at all, so the villagers were too lazy to help the strangers analyze it.
Jiuxiao received a call from the villagers after waking up from a nap, telling him that someone was inquiring about a person with the surname Shi in Sikun Mountain.
Jiuxiao told the villagers not to pay any attention to him, as he had never heard of such a person in all the years he had been here.
After hanging up the phone, Jiuxiao touched the black ring on his left thumb and sighed in his heart. He had been hiding for so many years, but he didn't expect that he still couldn't escape.
These people are finally coming again.
It’s really fast.
Jiuxiao told Zengyue and Chen Jiaer about the villagers' phone number. When Shi Rongchuan came downstairs, he heard it and quickly walked over to Jiuxiao: "Master Jiu, I was inconsiderate and didn't hide my whereabouts when I came here."
After saying this, he lowered his head in shame.
He and his mother had never thought of this.
Jiuxiao didn't blame him. This wasn't something he could hide just because he wanted to. "These people have been secretly watching the Shi family's movements. You and your mother can prevent it once, but you can't prevent it every time. What's coming will eventually come."
Yang Zengyue felt that these people came at the right time. She exchanged glances with Chen Jiaer and decided to go out at night to find out the true strength of these people.
The four of them did not discuss the matter too much, planning to wait until they finished their work in the fields before discussing it.
Even in such hot weather, the two of them did not rest. Pumpkin lay at his master's feet, breathing heavily and sticking out his tongue.
Seeing how hot it was, Yang Zengyue turned on the faucet, filled a large basin with water, dragged the pumpkin into the basin, and let it soak.
Yang Zengyue and Chen Jiaer gave it a bath. Pumpkin was also naughty and splashed all the water on its body onto Yang Zengyue and Chen Jiaer.
Chen Jiaer was so angry that he grabbed the skin on the back of its neck and lifted it up.
Shi Rongchuan happened to see this scene and thought to himself: Damn, how come this girl is so strong?
The dog must have weighed at least 60 kilograms. Not only did she lift it with one hand, but the dog couldn't even struggle. How much strength did that take?
Chen Jiaer forgot that Shi Rongchuan was here. She felt a little embarrassed for a moment and quickly put the pumpkin down.
Yang Zengyue disagreed.
After the end of the world, you really can't survive without some strength, and they are all extremely strong.
This is standard.
The two men wiped the pumpkin hair dry, picked up their tools and went down the mountain to prepare for the rice field.
Shi Rongchuan said in the morning that he was going to help, and Jiuxiao didn't hesitate. He asked him to change into a set of light and convenient training clothes, and took him down the mountain.
By the time he and Jiuxiao finished and went out, there was no trace of Yang Zengyue and Chen Jiaer.
Arriving at the fields, Yang Zengyue first went to find Uncle Fan and checked the water in the fields. He was worried that the water inlet was too small and there wasn't enough water. "Uncle, is there enough water in the fields?"
To make a rice seedling field, you need to irrigate it, then pile up some soil to form ridges, and then spread the germinated rice seeds on the soil. In this weather, there is no need to cover it with film, and it will grow in a few days.
This is the old way.
Now there are more advanced ones.
Use seedling trays to grow seedlings, and then you can directly use machines to sow the seeds.
When Uncle Fan told Yang Zengyue about this yesterday, she was so happy.
This can save a lot of time and manpower. At that time, you just need to assign people to pick up the seedlings, place them on the machine, turn on the machine and you can plant them directly, which saves you worry.
However, Yang Zengyue had to farm by herself in the future because she couldn't use those tools, so she asked Uncle Fan to give her six mu of land to farm using traditional methods.
After following Uncle Fan’s actual operation once, she will be able to do it on her own in the future.
Uncle Fan has already taken a look at this paddy field. The fields used for rice seedlings are all good, and the rice seedling trays have been placed on the ridges.
Yang Zengyue and Chen Jiaer put several buckets of sprouted rice seeds in each field.
The people who were invited to help also arrived one after another.
Uncle Fan divided them into several teams, with each team responsible for a piece of land.
Just place the seedling tray on the ridge, cover it with mud and then put the seeds on it.
The work is not too tiring.
Yang Zengyue paid according to the market price. If they worked quickly, they could finish the work before 6:30 p.m.
After demonstrating a traditional sowing and seedling raising process to Yang Zengyue, Uncle Fan joined the team to sow seeds.
Yang Zengyue was left there to ponder.
Jiuxiao, Shi Rongchuan and Chen Jiaer were in a team. After watching how the others worked, Chen Jiaer picked up a small bucket, filled it with seeds, stuffed his trouser legs into his socks, and went straight to the field to start working.
Rongchuan shuddered when he saw the agility.
He asked himself, I really can't compare to him.
After Yang Zengyue tried several times, she was able to make the ridges very flat and spread the seeds evenly on the ridges. After Uncle Fan came to see her, he felt that she was ready to start working.
Yang Zengyue gave himself a thumbs up for his initiative and joined the team of sowing seeds.
Instead of following the master, he was responsible for a row on his own.
Seeing that the master's movements were much slower than Chen Jiaer's, I knew that the master was old after all and had never done this kind of work before.
It's a brand new experience.
The old man with a sage-like appearance had completely lost his image at this moment. Looking at Shi Rongchuan again, he was even more embarrassed than him. Jiuxiao suddenly laughed.
Shi Rongchuan's face was covered with mud, like a harlequin cat.
Shi Rongchuan knew that his appearance at the moment was not very good, but there was nothing he could do because the paddy field was too muddy.
Looking at Yang Zengyue and Chen Jiaer again, except for the mud on their trouser legs, their bodies and faces were clean, and their speed was several times faster than him and Jiuxiao!
This is really unscientific.
Obviously we are all the same people.
These two girls have never done this kind of farm work before, so how come they are so much better than him?
Young Master Shi couldn't figure it out no matter how hard he tried.
Jiuxiao knew that the two of them had slowed down, otherwise they would probably be able to take off in the field.
In the evening, the setting sun had begun to set in the west. The seeds were all placed on their seedling trays. Yang Zengyue paid the workers their wages, gave each of them a pack of filter tips, and extra money for dinner. Then the workers went home.
Yang Zengyue still had to look after the fields and ensure that there was enough water, otherwise the seedlings would not grow well.
Uncle Fan told her where to put the water and when to apply the first fertilizer, and then went home. He also said that he would come back to help when it was necessary to spray pesticides.
Yang Zengyue knew that he had worked hard these days, so he quickly asked him to go home and rest.
If she has any questions, she will call him for advice.
Yang Zengyue sat on the edge of the field guarding the water, looking at the fields, his heart inexplicably calm.
