Chapter 26 Improving the Soil/Preparing for Both Ends
"Have you finished setting up the shelves?" Zhou Weihong also grows vegetables at home, but she always grows the vegetables first and then sets up the shelves.
"The rack was built by our Cheng Jinghao before. I thought it would be easier to guide the vines when the time comes if we put it up earlier."
"However, these shelves need to be dismantled first, and the soil needs to be added." Lin Momo explained.
"You're a city girl, but you can actually tinker with these things." Zhou Weihong looked at her and smiled.
"I'm also learning. I've never planted it before." Lin Momo did not hide it.
"I want to give it a try. If it succeeds, it may help solve the planting problem in southern Tibet."
Zhou Weihong looked at her and nodded, "You are a good girl."
"Don't say that." Lin Momo felt a little embarrassed. She hadn't accomplished anything yet.
"It's good to have this idea." Zhou Weihong said.
Her son and daughter-in-law are both in the Construction Corps. If Lin Momo can really succeed, it may be helpful to the Construction Corps.
Zhou Weihong took a quick look and went back. The military dependents at the door were still looking around.
At this time, Cheng Jinghao came back from outside and frowned slightly when he saw these military dependents.
"What are you looking at?"
"Hey, Captain Cheng is back, you can just follow your wife and make some noise." Ge Mei glanced at him.
Last year she wanted to introduce her daughter from the countryside to Cheng Jinghao, but he was unwilling.
"Whatever your wife wants to do, I'll eat your meal." Cheng Jinghao glared at her.
"Everyone, go away. If it really happens, everyone can try some southern dishes." Lin Momo walked in from the yard.
"Okay."
"Then let's wait for good news from Comrade Lin."
After hearing Lin Momo's words, the military families all went back with a smile.
"Tsk, you make it sound like it can be grown." Ge Mei muttered to Lin Momo.
"Okay, everyone listen. When the time comes, Aunt Huo, don't come and ask for food. I won't give you any even if you ask." Lin Momo glanced at her and pulled Cheng Jinghao back.
"The soil in the greenhouse needs to be improved. We originally planned to use chemical fertilizers, but if it is really widely planted in southern Tibet, we will definitely not be able to take chemical fertilizers out of space, so we think we should use cow dung."
Lin Momo pulled Cheng Jinghao into the greenhouse and spoke to him.
"Okay, I'll go to Sixth Aunt's place to carry some cow dung later." Cheng Jinghao said to Lin Momo with a smile.
"Thank you for your hard work, Brother Jinghao." Lin Momo stretched out her fingers and hooked his big hand.
"Shouldn't we show some expression?" Cheng Jinghao pointed to his lips.
"You're so beautiful." Lin Momo was about to walk out of the greenhouse, but he grabbed her and brought her into his arms.
"I'm not beautiful, you're beautiful." He leaned over and kissed her lips.
Lin Momo opened her eyes wide and looked at the man who was close to her. His handsome features and deep eyes made her heart beat fast.
"Momo."
"Um?"
"You are so lovely." Cheng Jinghao bit her red lips lightly.
Lin Momo's cheeks were hot. "Let's go to the breeding ground quickly. It's late and Aunt Liu should go back."
"good."
The two left the greenhouse, and Cheng Jinghao picked up the backpack in the corner and prepared to go out.
"Are you going to use this to carry cow dung?" Lin Momo stopped him.
"We don't have anything else to carry cow dung."
"Then what should we do when buying groceries and other things?" Lin Momo looked at him. This was the only backpack in their house.
Cheng Jinghao was stunned, it seemed that what he said made sense.
At this time, there was a knock on the door, and Cheng Jinghao went to open it.
"Here, I made it in a hurry because I knew you might need it." Zhao Zhigang, who was standing at the door, was holding a large backpack and a bamboo basket in his hands.
"Hey Shiyu, we were just talking about needing this thing." Cheng Jinghao took it without hesitation.
"When the vegetables are grown, don't forget to let your brother taste them," Zhao Zhigang said with a smile.
"I'll definitely never forget that."
"Okay, go ahead and do your work. I'll go back home." Zhao Zhigang waved his hand and went back to his home.
Lin Momo walked out of the main room and said, "Brother Zhao and his wife are both people worth making friends with."
"Otherwise, why would you choose to live next door to them when dividing the houses?" Cheng Jinghao reached out and touched her braid.
"Let's go." He handed the bamboo basket in his hand to Lin Momo.
Because the new backpack was bigger, he used it to carry cow dung.
The cow and sheep dung in the farmland is also planned. In this era, animal manure is the best nutrient and can also be used for burning.
Aunt Six gave Cheng Jinghao a full basket and told him that she would leave some for him every day.
When Cheng Jinghao returned home, he found more than a dozen simple flower pots placed in the main room.
"What are you doing?"
"We can't put all our eggs in one basket. Do you remember Grandpa Hou in our yard? He used to grow vegetables in flower pots." Lin Momo was talking about their neighbor.
"Remember, fill them with soil then." Cheng Jinghao moved the flower pots to the front yard.
"I thought about it and decided that since we are building a greenhouse to improve the planting environment in southern Tibet."
"I plan to try to grow some sweet potatoes, and then try to grow some corn in the spring of next year." Lin Momo followed Cheng Jinghao and said to him.
Food is secondary, only food is the most important.
"In short, don't be too tired. You can do the hard work when you come back, especially these days when you have your period." Cheng Jinghao's vacation ends tomorrow.
"I know, my period was gone a long time ago, it's okay..." Lin Momo suddenly realized that there was something wrong with the way Cheng Jinghao looked at her.
"Well, I'm thirsty, let's go back to the room and drink some water."
Lin Momo ran away, but she was no match for the soldiers.
"When did you leave?" Cheng Jinghao held her in his arms.
"Yesterday, yesterday..." Lin Momo swallowed. The day he came back was the third day since she was pregnant.
"Haha, it's okay. Go fill the soil and apply fertilizer." Cheng Jinghao smiled and pinched her cheek.
“Let’s go to the supermarket and kill a chicken later so we can have a good rest.” Having said that, he let go of Lin Momo and went to work.
"Cheng Jinghao, please listen to my explanation..."
"I have to go to work. You should take a nap and rest well." Cheng Jinghao raised his lips at her.
"......" She didn't want to understand what he meant, but now she understood.
At dinner time, Cheng Jinghao actually made chicken soup in the rice cooker in the supermarket.
"Chicken legs are delicious, eat chicken legs." He picked up both chicken legs and gave them to Lin Momo.
"......"
"Drink more soup, all the nutrients are in the soup." Cheng Jinghao served her a big bowl of soup.
"Cheng Jinghao..." Can she beg for mercy now?
"Do you still want to eat steamed buns?" Today they eat steamed buns made from whole grains.
Lin Momo shook her head vigorously.
"Well, I've boiled water in the pot. I'll get you some water later." Cheng Jinghao raised his lips.
"......"
