Chapter 228: The Chicken Opens Its Crotch
Other fruits mature in autumn, but cherries are probably one of the few fruits that can be eaten in spring.
"Well, let's see about planting some more red bean curd later."
This one also ripens in spring. Lu Hongmei gave it to me last time. She left a lot of seeds.
"Okay, I'll have someone look for it later."
“No, we have seeds at home, given by Carpenter Dong’s wife.
By the way, you are wearing this."
As he said that, he handed the straw hat to Qiao Yiqi.
"It's okay..."
"Wear it. You're so fair, don't get tanned."
She said that, which probably showed that she cared a lot about her skin color. Qiao Yiqi put it on without saying anything.
“Look here, it will probably take ten days or half a month to complete.
Let's hire more people tomorrow and dig a bigger hole under the spring.
If there is more accumulated water, we can use it to water the trees later.”
The spring is next to the mountain, and in order not to affect it, no changes are planned to be made around it.
The water is gurgling downwards, so there is no problem in expanding and deepening the space in the middle.
After a long time, the excess water will flow back along the original path.
Finally, it will come out of the ditch and arrive at the rice pond in front.
Although the water flow is not strong, it is better in the long run and many people have gotten used to it.
There are also some rice ponds on the west side of the avenue, but they are quite far away from the village.
Qiao Yiqi's arrangement is indeed very convenient.
Later on, when the fruits start to grow, someone will still be needed to guard this place.
By then, domestic water needs can also be solved.
"Okay, then let's do as you say."
Once this was confirmed, construction began the next day, not only to expand it.
You also need to surround it with stones to ensure that there is enough water to water the trees.
The number of hired people increased from twenty to fifty, and Qingzi and Xizi were both commanding from another hill.
Everyone is doing their work in an orderly manner.
Qiao Yiqi didn't let Liu Yunshuang work, but she still insisted on watering the plants.
Only in this way can some spiritual spring water be mixed in.
Helpless, he could only fetch water.
Carrying two buckets at once is quite a strenuous job.
Fruit trees are better than vegetables. They don’t need to be watered every day. Just watering them is enough.
But you still need to take good care of them in the first few days after planting, otherwise they will easily die.
There are more than 3,000 fruit trees. Even if she waters them once a day, she will be exhausted! So, she only needs to come every three or five days.
Normally, it is okay to hire someone to water the plants with spring water.
After five days of busy work, all the trees were finally planted, and Liu Yunshuang began to calculate everyone's expenses.
I actually spent one hundred and ten dollars at one time, and it hurt so much.
"Yunshuang, I've already calculated the money and asked Qingzi to distribute it to everyone. You don't have to worry about it."
"You gave all the money?"
"Yeah, didn't we agree before that you would take care of the land, and I would take care of everything else?"
Well, indeed, she paid two thousand yuan.
"With so many saplings and the labor cost, you are losing money."
"No, don't worry, I never suffer any loss."
As he said this, he gave her an ambiguous smile.
Liu Yunshuang felt a little overwhelmed for a moment and quickly found an excuse to leave.
There was also good news for the rabbit at home. It gave birth to eight puppies that night.
Good luck, so auspicious.
She placed them in the main room. Although the weather was warmer, she was still worried.
Qiao Yiqi accompanied her, and the moment they saw the little rabbit, they both breathed a sigh of relief.
I was indeed worried just now.
The following days were even busier.
She had to tend to the vegetables and look after the rabbits and the twenty chickens.
They also went to the mountain to water the plants from time to time. Xizi and Qingzi left after only two days, saying they had something to do.
Qiao Yiqi stayed and followed her.
The two of them often went out together, and many people in the team had talked about it.
However, these words did not reach her ears.
Du Ruohong also began to get better. She went to deliver vegetables every day and collected the payment for them.
The dishes were weighed in advance and there was no discrepancy in the numbers.
Her salary is paid monthly, which is very convenient.
Everything is moving in the right direction.
"Yunshuang, drink some water."
She was busy with the tomatoes and the man brought her some warm water.
There is no mistake in the poem, post, content, and read the book on 6, 9, and bar!
"No, my hands are dirty. Wait a minute."
As soon as she finished speaking, the teacup was handed to her mouth.
"It's okay, I'll help you..."
The other person looked very frank, and she felt a little embarrassed.
This is too intimate, isn't it?
“Drink it!”
The man didn't see what she was thinking and kept urging her. Liu Yunshuang had no choice but to take two sips from his hand.
Oops, there was a little embarrassment and blushing.
“Look, these tomatoes are ripe, and many of them are starting to turn red.
We can go and sell them at the market the day after tomorrow."
Lately, I haven’t been there once.
Two hundred kilograms a day is almost enough.
Now, cucumbers, beans, celery, tomatoes, eggplants and green peppers can all be picked.
She had to continue setting up the stall. She would definitely not be able to take all the orders from those three companies, so she might even have to go to the county town.
After all, Qingyang Town is only so big and the demand is fixed.
"Okay, I'll go with you then."
"OK!"
Here, the affection between the two is gradually warming up.
Although they didn't say it out loud, they got along quite well.
Qiao Yiqi was also happy. This was the conciliatory policy he had prepared before. He wanted to get into Liu Yunshuang's heart little by little.
"Mom, mom, look, look quickly~"
Xu Zhili was calling her frantically beside the fence. The two of them didn't know what was going on, so they hurried over.
I saw that she was holding an egg in her hand, with a faint stain of blood on it.
Liu Yunshuang's eyes lit up.
"Where did you pick this up?"
“Underground, I saw it when I went to feed the water just now.
Mom, our chickens are starting to lay eggs."
"Yeah, it's open, that's a good thing."
She quickly ran to the chicken coop to see, and as soon as one was born, there would be a second one. The day when their eggs would be free would not be long.
With sixteen hens and four roosters, the daily egg production must be more than ten.
In addition to eating it myself, I guess there will be some left to sell.
There is one more source of income, how can I not be happy?
"Tomorrow, if you see a hen that shows signs of roosting, carry it to the upper grid."
That is a place specially prepared for them to lay eggs, so you need to make a habit of it.
"Okay, my sister and I will watch it tomorrow."
Xu Zhili agreed immediately. These chicks and rabbits were taken care of by the two sisters, so she didn't have to worry much.
Also, hurry up and get some straw.
Cut it into pieces and spread it underneath so that the chicken will be willing to lie down.
