Two days later, Meng Qidi's greenhouse vegetable production officially started.
While the children were at school, Wang Jinhua came in with a hoe to help, as she knew how to dig ditches.
According to the distance Xiaoqi said, Wang Jinhua quickly led to rows of small ditches.
Meng Qidi was sowing seeds and covering the soil. The two of them were working one after the other and their speed was quite fast.
After finishing this, Meng Qidi went back to the well to fetch water. When no one was around in the yard, she dropped a drop of Yuquan water into the well before bringing it over.
Wang Jinhua asked Xiao Qi, and he directly dug small ditches in all the sandy land where the sheds were built, with two small rows in each row.
The sandy land was not solid to begin with, and every time I dug it with a hoe, it would create a ditch. This was something we were used to doing farm work on.
Wang Jinhua was very fast. After she had planted two rows, Meng Qidi had just finished watering the last bit of water.
Looking up at Wang Jinhua, Meng Qidi said helplessly, "Mom, you are too fast."
"How can this be fast? Think back to the old days when we worked, we competed on speed. If we finished quickly, we could leave early..."
Wang Jinhua paused. This happened when she was still healthy. Later on, she seldom went to work. Now that she could finally pick up a hoe, she felt full of strength.
Thinking of this, Wang Jinhua smiled and said, "How about we compete to see who is faster?"
"No, I don't want to." Meng Qidi refused without thinking.
There was no way the competition would succeed because Master Yang had come to install the gate, so Wang Jinhua drove two large rows of cars over to help.
Without anyone to help, Meng Qidi was no longer in a hurry. She slowly sowed the seeds and then applied water. If there was not enough water, she would go and get some.
After building a greenhouse, Meng Qidi calmly took out a sign from the basket and stuck it in front of the shed. The word "Pakchoy" was written on it.
Looking closely at the labels in her basket, there were all kinds of vegetables written on them, even watermelon, pineapple, strawberry, etc. The number of labels was the same as the number of all the sheds.
There were probably not many people who could afford to eat fruit these days, so she didn't dare to plant too much. She only planted a little of each in the first year.
If it cannot be sold in the future, it can be canned.
After putting a sign on the Chinese cabbage, Meng Qidi started planting in the second shed. The sheds on the north side of the road were basically planted with vegetables, while those on the east side were all planted with fruits and the like.
Here, Wang Jinhua was competing against Master Yang. In addition to dragging two doors over with a tricycle, he also had two buckets of varnish.
The gate can be installed directly, but it will be difficult to paint after it is installed. Master Yang mixed the paint, placed the gate against the wall, and painted it quickly.
After watching for a few times, Wang Jinhua, the painter, basically learned how to do it and started painting another door.
Painting is simple, and the two of them finished it in less than half an hour.
As soon as the paint dried, Master Yang erected the door and asked Wang Jinhua to help push it. Then he stood on a chair and slammed it hard. With a click, the door closed.
"Is it stable?" Wang Jinhua was a little worried and didn't dare to let go.
Master Yang patted it vigorously, "It's stable. You move away. I'll jump down and go to the other door."
Wang Jinhua quickly dodged, and when he came down, she helped push the door up, holding it as before, and then pushed it open with a bang, and it went in.
After the two doors were in place, Master Yang tried to close them. With a creaking sound, the doors were fastened together tightly.
Wang Jinhua's voice came from outside the door, "Old Yang, is it done?"
"Okay, it's done. Now we can just buy a big lock." Master Yang quickly opened the gate.
"Is there a secret lock inside?" Wang Jinhua asked. The lock is easy to solve. Just ask Ling Xiao to buy one tomorrow.
"Yes, come here and I'll teach you."
The two elders were talking in low voices near the door. Meng Qidi leaned over to take a look and then smiled and retracted herself. It seemed that they had handled it themselves.
After solving the problem of the gate, Master Yang felt that it was too early to go back. He looked around and suddenly asked, "Do you have any wood and tiles left at home?"
"Yes, the tiles are in the yard in front of my in-laws' house. You can go get them directly. Xiaoqi has extra ones."
Wang Jinhua nodded quickly, "The wood seems to be in our warehouse, go look for it, my in-laws seem to have quite a few bricks, what kind of gadget are you planning to make?"
"Build a doghouse and let a few dogs squat here." Master Yang said, pointing to the door.
"Wait here. I'll go see how many bricks there are. Is the cart still at the door?"
Wang Jinhua followed him and said, "I'd better go with you. There are a lot more bricks. Go and see for yourself."
Sure enough, there were really a lot of bricks in the yard as Wang Jinhua mentioned. In a blink of an eye, Master Yang had already decided how big the doghouse should be.
After searching around the warehouse, he took out a dozen thick wooden sticks and several large wooden boards and put them on the cart. He also took some cement and mud buckets that he saw. He put almost all the tools that could be used, such as hammers and nails, on the cart.
After delivering these tools to the main gate, Master Yang ran back and forth twice, dragging two full carts of bricks and tiles.
Once everything is ready, we start work.
When the courtyard was first built, a large space was left behind the gate, probably to make it easier to close the gate. Now that the gate is completed, it is found that the small spaces on both sides are a bit redundant.
The gate will not be pushed directly against the courtyard wall.
So, he thought of building two kennels and placing the four dogs on either side.
After mixing the cement, laying two layers of bricks and putting on wooden boards, Master Yang began to build a house by laying the bricks together. The height was about the same as Da Huang's height.
I helped build a fence last time, and now it’s easy to do. In less than half an hour, a doghouse about half a meter high appeared behind the door.
Master Yang started working on the roof.
"What can I do?" Wang Jinhua asked.
Master Yang paused, "Move the doghouse over here. Once the roof is finished, the dog can live there."
Wang Jinhua pulled the cart and hurried to move things.
As soon as the person left, Master Yang placed two wooden strips in his hand on the road, then put a few wooden boards on top and nailed them directly.
The wooden strips are square, with wooden boards nailed to one side, and then another row of wooden boards nailed to the other side at the next right angle.
When he raised his hand, a roof was finished. He directly covered it on the previous roof and carefully covered it with tiles. When Wang Jinhua came over, he had built a doghouse for himself.
Meng Qidi in the greenhouse heard the sound and looked out, and saw two people squatting at the gate. Is the gate ready? So why are they gathered together?
Although she was confused, Meng Qidi still had to finish the task at hand. When she was done, she saw the doghouse at the gate and was filled with surprise. This...
"Uncle Yang made this. Isn't it amazing?" Wang Jinhua said with pride. "And this door is also great. Isn't it? Your Uncle Yang's craftsmanship is really good."
Meng Qidi nodded in agreement, "Okay, very good, Uncle Yang is really careful. I didn't expect that the doghouse could be built here."
I saw that the two dog kennels were filled with things from the four dog kennels including Dahuang.
Master Yang wiped the sweat from his forehead, took a sip of the water Wang Jinhua handed over, and drank it in one gulp, "As long as you like it."
