Chapter 372 Chapter 373: Ma Chunhua's Discovery
The old man grabbed a handful of the mixed cement, clenched it tightly, and then let go to see that the cement had already formed a ball. He squeezed it and it fell apart, "Okay, it can be laid out now."
"Okay!" everyone responded in unison.
Everyone carried baskets and poured cement into a foundation trench made of wooden boards. They then raked it flat with a wooden rake and tamped it flat with a wooden rammer.
Zhou Huaian drove a tractor and pulled a large stone roller to compact the road surface.
The field across the road was full of people watching the fun, "The houses of the second branch of the Zhou family are so nicely built!"
"Of course it's good. Look at Mr. Zhou and Mr. Zhou Dasong. They are all as thin as bamboo poles."
Zhou Huaijun replied: "That's right. I don't want to repair houses anymore in my life. Every time I go back to bed after being too tired, I can't sleep because of the pain all over my body."
Boss Ye said with a smile: "Huaijun, ask your Xiuxiang to rub you and you will fall asleep!"
Lin Wu gave him a lewd look and said, "That's right, rub it well and you'll have a good sleep till dawn."
"Sister Ma, your husband Lin wants you to give him a massage." Zhou Huaijun shouted at Ma Chunhua with a smile.
Ma Chunhua picked up the wooden rammer and said, "Come, I'll use it to rub you."
Boss Ye: "The wooden rammer is useless. It's turned into a meat paste."
"Hahaha..." Everyone burst into laughter.
A woman said, "Old Ma, you will have a comfortable life from now on. You can dry millet and corn seeds without laying out drying mats."
"That's right!" Ma Chunhua looked at the road that was as wide as the tractor road. After it was paved, it would be no different from the team's drying dam. She thought that she would never have to worry about having no place to dry the millet again.
People came and went to watch the fun, and the scene in front of the new house was as lively as a market.
After lunch, everyone continued to work. Li Chuntao came over charmingly, carrying a load of tea.
She put down the tea bucket, glanced at Zhou Huaian who was driving the tractor, and shouted, "Brother, the youngest one asked me to bring you some tea."
Boss Ye's face darkened and he said, "Just let it go." The youngest brother is a fool. He got such a thing. Sooner or later, his head will be greener than a leek field.
"Yes." Seeing that his face looked strange, Li Chuntao quickly put down the watering can and left.
Ma Chunhua glanced at her, "..." Shameless thing, her eyes were on Zhou Laoyao, thinking that everyone was blind!
As she thought about this, she turned her head to look at Zhou Huaian, then at Lin Wu. One looked like a scholar on the stage, and the other looked like a clown on the stage.
Yes, if this slutty vixen wanted to seduce someone, she would seduce Zhou Laoya. She must be blind to seduce Lin Wu. Thinking of this, I felt relieved immediately.
There is strength in numbers. By the time Zhou Huaian had finished paving a section of the road, the road ahead had also been paved. More than a dozen people were busy until dark, and then they worked for two or three hours by burning a bonfire before finally completing the work.
Three generations of the Zhou family stood on the edge of the field below, looked at their new house and the paved road for a while, then went home with smiles on their faces and flashlights.
…
After Zhou Huaian washed up, he returned to the room, leaned against the cabinet like he had no bones, squinted his eyes and shouted: "Yan'er, my wife, wipe my hair for me!"
"Come up and sit on the stool." Yang Chunyan took out a dry towel and stood behind him to help him wipe.
Zhou Huaian leaned against her comfortably, "Yan'er, Yiding helped us make a wardrobe, a desk, high and low cabinets, sofas, chairs and a long table. The best thing is that there is a dressing mirror on the wardrobe. He said these are the most popular styles in the city.
"With so many things, how can I repay the favor?"
"Yeah, when I see those things, I can't describe how I feel."
Yang Chunyan said softly: "He treats you sincerely, so you should treat him sincerely as well."
"Hmm!" Zhou Huaian sighed, "When he was a kid, his family was well off and he had lots of delicious snacks, so the Third and Youngest Bears loved to steal his things.
I had conflicts with the youngest brother, so I asked my second and third brothers to help Ding Ding Mao a few times, and later we became good friends. He envied me because I had brothers and sisters, and I had people to help me when I fought.
I envy his family's good conditions. His mother and husband never scold him, and when I go to his house to play, they never look down on me. "
Yang Chunyan nodded and said, "Uncle Daqing is really a great man."
"That's right. How many men are willing to remain single for the sake of their children? Even old man Li Xiaoping ended up being cuckolded!"
"That's why they say people are different and flowers come in a variety of shades."
"That's right!" Zhou Huaian took the handkerchief and turned back to look at her with a smile, "It's finally done. When did mom choose to move?"
"Mom checked the date and decided that on the second day of the Lunar New Year, my brothers and I would move together and have a housewarming party together. She also said that we would settle the accounts and divide the property tomorrow."
"I'm already 28, and there's only a few days left until the second year of junior high school!"
"Yes! Mom said that we can move the unnecessary things there first, and she also said that I am not feeling well and cannot move on the day. Oh, I also need to go back and tell my mom and the others."
"Yes, I will help Erchun pull the sand and gravel to the grove tomorrow, and then I will move the boxes, stools, and cotton wool over there first. We will go to Yangjiaping together on the 30th," Zhou Huaian said, looking at her with shining eyes, "Wife, it will be three months at the end of the month!"
Yang Chunyan patted him on the shoulder and said, "Go away, you're so tired and still have the mind to think about these things." This guy is always like this, he starts to go off topic after a few words!
Zhou Huaian put his arms around her, kissed her on the lips, and said with a grin, "Your man is a hot-blooded man. It's normal for him to want you. If he doesn't, it'll be troublesome!"
"Bah! What's the problem with me? Go to bed quickly. Tomorrow morning, we have to clean up the rapeseed fields at home, and you still have to help Erchun pull sand!"
"Yes, sir. Go to bed immediately." Zhou Huaian lay down on the bed and fell asleep in less than a minute after his head touched the pillow.
Yang Chunyan pulled the quilt over him and blew out the oil lamp.
…
The next morning, Zhou Huaian went to Ning'an. After dinner, Zhou's father said to them, "Let's sow the rapeseed seeds together this year and transplant them together in the spring.
You have already separated when the grain was planted, so if you want to work together, you can work together, and if you want to break up and do your own things, then you can break up, and I can’t control you anymore.”
Zhou Huairong said hurriedly: "Don't worry, old man, we brothers will get along well and everyone will lend a hand if there is any problem."
Zhou Huaijun also said: "Don't worry, we will be friendly."
Father Zhou looked at them with satisfaction and said, "The fields have been plowed. We will spread the fertilizer and sow the rapeseed today. After the rapeseed seedlings are transplanted, these two large fields will be used as seedling fields.
At that time, we will spread flowers and grass (Astragalus), sedge and sweet rapeseed to fertilize the fields. You can do the same next year."
The seedlings are planted early, and it is too late to plant seeds after the rapeseed is harvested. Generally, a piece of field is left to sow some crops that can be used as fodder, and then transferred out when the seedlings are raised in the spring.
The sedge and astragalus are very resistant to drought and can generally grow well in relatively poor soil. After growing out, they can be harvested in batches and taken home to feed pigs, which can not only improve the soil but also fertilize the fields.
The young leaves of sweet vetch taste good when fried, but they cannot be fed to cattle. If cattle eat too much, their stomachs will bloat when they ruminate, and in severe cases, they may even die from bloating.
"Understood." Zhou Huairong and Zhao Huifang took the lead and walked out.
Yang Chunyan also went to the large field near the river. After everyone spread the mature fertilizer, Zhou Huaishan drove a tractor to plow the land.
Then they began to divide the fields into ridges and dug drainage ditches along the edges of the fields to prevent rainwater from damaging the rapeseed seedlings.
The family was busy all day sowing rapeseed seeds and didn't even have time to move their things.
