Chapter 17 Trying to grow vegetables in the backyard
"Sister Li He, who is that Miao Xiaohua?" On the way back, Lin Momo couldn't help but ask Li He.
"She and her husband Liu Shuanggui are the battalion commander of the military region. They are the same, flattering the powerful and looking down on the weak." Li He said while shaking his head.
"But, Momo, you are really awesome. You fought her back with just one sentence." Li He held the backpack in one hand and the eggs in the other, otherwise she really wanted to give Lin Momo a thumbs up.
"What's the big deal? I've seen a lot of people like her." Lin Momo smiled, thinking of the time when she was working in the mall in her previous life. What kind of people haven't seen it?
Li He helped her carry the backpack to the gate of the yard and then went back.
"Cheng Jinghao, come and help me lift it." Lin Momo shouted loudly towards the yard.
As soon as Li He entered his yard, he heard Lin Momo's voice and laughed. This little girl is quite interesting.
"How did you get so many vegetables back?" Cheng Jinghao carried the backpack into the yard with one hand.
"Sister Li He and I will carry it back together." Lin Momo followed into the yard.
"If I had known so much, I wouldn't have let you go." Cheng Jinghao poured her a glass of spiritual spring water.
"I didn't know that a pound of brown sugar could be exchanged for so many dishes." Lin Momo took the teacup and drank it down with a gulp. The spiritual spring water was sweet and delicious.
"Auntie is a real person."
"Yeah, and I met a nasty person." Lin Momo told Cheng Jinghao about Miao Xiaohua's incident.
"Hit, hit hard." Cheng Jinghao was a little excited. Liu Shuanggui wanted to practice tomorrow.
"Don't get involved in women's affairs. She'd better not provoke me, or she will be in trouble."
Lin Momo put her hands on her hips, which made Cheng Jinghao laugh.
"I've turned the soil. I'll go chop some firewood this afternoon. It's going to rain soon."
Cheng Jinghao took out the vegetables from the backpack and started to cook lunch.
"Okay, thank you for your hard work, Brother Jinghao." Lin Momo came in front of him and said with a smile.
"Heh." Cheng Jinghao raised his hand and rubbed her hair.
"You messed it up." Lin Momo raised her hand and waved away 놛놅's big hand.
After lunch, Cheng Jinghao went out with his backpack.
Lin Momo looked at the tilled soil in the backyard and wondered what vegetables to plant. Military families usually planted vegetables, potatoes, and peppers. She wanted to try growing something different.
Lin Momo entered the seed section of the shopping mall supermarket and found some vegetable seeds suitable for summer planting.
Finally, Lin Momo planted cabbage, peppers, radishes, potatoes, and water spinach, and found cucumber, loofah, tomato, and bitter melon seeds. These required vegetable racks, so she could only wait for Cheng Jinghao to come back.
When Cheng Jinghao came back, Lin Momo was waiting in the yard.
"Brother Jinghao." Lin Momo looked at him and blinked her sparkling eyes.
"Momo, if you have something to say, just tell me. This makes me anxious." Cheng Jinghao looked at her and laughed dryly. When she was a child, she only called Jinghao brother, which must be bad.
"Okay then, let's go build some vegetable racks." Lin Momo pointed to the backyard.
"What do you grow?" There aren't many vegetables that can be grown in Tibetan areas, and even fewer vegetable racks are needed.
"I want to try to grow cucumbers and other things. If we can grow them, we can go to Tibet Nanpu."
"That's a good idea. I'll do it right away." Cheng Jinghao nodded.
"Oh, there's a chicken and some eggs in the backpack."
"Are you looking for me?" Lin Momo took a look into the basket. The chicken was different from the ones she usually saw. Its color was brighter. She didn't know whether it was dead or unconscious.
"Well, leave it there. I'll come and kill it after I finish setting up the rack."
There is no bamboo here, so Cheng Jinghao used wood to make vegetable racks.
"You can do a lot of things." Lin Momo moved a small stool and watched Cheng Jinghao make a cooking rack.
"The 놇 troops can learn a lot."
Cheng Jinghao glanced at her and said, "Go back to your room and take a nap." How can you do your work if he keeps watching you?
"No, if I sleep during the day, I won't be able to sleep at night."
There are no other activities in this era. Her space only has electricity, but no internet, and she can't use all the electronic products.
Seeing that he couldn't persuade her, Cheng Jinghao could only let her do what she wanted.
Lin Momo took out a book from the space and started reading.
"What book are you reading?" Cheng Jinghao asked.
"Agriculture books. I want to see what else can be grown in southern Tibet and do some research." Lin Momo looked up.
"Well, by the way, help me find some military books." Cheng Jinghao said. In this era, many books are banned and cannot be read.
"good."
Cheng Jinghao set up the cooking rack, chopped the firewood, went to fetch two buckets of water, killed the chicken, and started to stew chicken soup.
"Cheng Jinghao, you are so cruel. You killed their mother and brought all these eggs back." Lin Momo counted them and found that there were 16 eggs in this nest.
"It's not their mother, it's their father. And those two eggs were not born by the same mother."
"Then this chicken should be killed. Where are Ehuang and Nvying?"
"Did I say that these two nests of eggs belong to this rooster? A hen doesn't need a rooster to lay eggs." Cheng Jinghao looked at Lin Momo. Does the chicken want to eat them or not?
"Shut up and stew your chicken." Lin Momo put away the ten pheasant eggs.
“…” It’s so hard to be a human being. It’s wrong not to speak, and it’s also wrong to speak.
"Cheng Jinghao, I'm going to the next door. Ma Xiao is back."
Lin Momo remembered that Li He had helped her carry the dishes just now, and she hadn't thanked her yet, so she took half a pound of egg cake and went next door.
Just then, Li He's two children had returned from school, and Zhao Zhigang's eldest son, Zhao Dabao, opened the door.
"Auntie, who are you looking for?"
"I live next door to Aunt Lin. Is your mother's home?" Lin Momo asked Zhao Dabao with a smile.
"My mother is cooking, please come in."
"I won't go in. Give this to your mother. Your mother helped auntie today, and auntie came to thank her." Lin Momo handed the egg cake to Dabao, but Dabao refused to take it.
"Auntie, my mother said that we can't take other people's things casually. Please go in and give it to my mother."
"This child is so well-behaved." Lin Momo had no choice but to enter the yard.
"Dabao, who's here?" At this time, Li He came out from the kitchen.
"Momo, what's wrong?"
"Sister Li He, thank you for helping me carry the dishes today. I brought some egg cakes for the children." Lin Momo stuffed the egg cake into Li He's hand.
"Oh, how can I do that? Just take it back and eat it yourself. It's not a big deal." Li He refused.
Seeing this, Lin Momo quickly ran back to her own home from Li He's house.
"This girl." Li He looked at Lin Momo's expression and laughed.
By dinner time, it was windy outside. The sky was bright just now, but it was dark in an instant.
Cheng Jinghao kept looking outside, and finally ate a few mouthfuls of rice quickly and stood up.
"Momo, it's going to rain soon. The barley in the fields may not be harvested in time. I have to go help the villagers harvest it. You stay at home and don't go out." Cheng Jinghao took off the straw raincoat and hat hung on the wall.
"Are you going now?" Lin Momo also stood up, she was a little worried.
"Well, you should put on more clothes to avoid catching a cold." Cheng Jinghao raised his hand and touched her hair, then walked out.
