Chapter 361 Chapter 362: How to repair the road
During lunch, Zhou Huaian divided the money from selling Paris polyphylla among Zhou Huairong and the other two. Zhou Huaishan also gave him the money from selling red mushrooms over the past two days.
Yang Chunyan also told Zhou's father about repairing the fence.
When he heard that they needed to hire someone to build the fence, he hesitated and said, "Don't worry about it. I'll go find two people to go to the bamboo forest to cut bamboo this afternoon." He then looked at the three older ones and asked, "What about you guys?"
After hearing this, Zhou Huairong said, "My family can just fence off that part of the ravine, and then we can do it slowly after we are done with the busy work."
Zhou Huaijun and the other man also said, "We'll wait until we're done with the work before we do it."
Father Zhou nodded, "There is one more thing. We were planning to pave the road in front of the gate with cement, but now the section in the grove has been allocated to Erchun's family, the Lin family, and Accountant Ye's family. What should we do with the section in front of their gate in the future?"
Zhou Huaijun said: "I was just thinking about this. Now that the land has been allocated, it will not be worthwhile for us to pave that section of road."
Zhou Huaian looked at his father in surprise, "That old fox Accountant Ye, did he also approve the homestead?"
Father Zhou nodded somewhat proudly, "People say that the area has good feng shui, and that our family became prosperous after moving there."
After hearing this, Zhou Huaian recalled the situation in Yang Chunyan's dream, "Tsk~ That old fox, why didn't you see that the feng shui of that place was good before?"
"No one built a brick house there before!" Zhou Huaishan joked with a smile, "Youngest, you are timid. It would be more lively if a few more families moved in!"
Zhou Huaian curled his lips, "I'm not timid during the day, and I don't go out at night, so it's none of my business whether they come or not."
"Knock knock!" Father Zhou knocked on the table. "I want to ask you whether that section of road is still to be repaired. If so, what should be done?"
"I'll ask Erchun to discuss it with the other three companies." Zhou Huaian said and then asked, "How many batches of Accountant Ye's are there?"
"Ye Laoyao." Zhou's mother frowned as she spoke. "Ye Laoyao's wife is dressed like a fairy. It's obvious that she is not a quiet person. Also, Lin Wu's wife is a jealous person. If they get together, there will be drama!"
Zhou Huaian thought of that bloody mouth and said with disgust: "I have seen it. It doesn't look like a goblin but more like the White Bone Demon. It can scare a person to death."
Zhou Huaishan said with a smile: "Maybe Ye Quezi would like that."
"Pa~" Zhou's father hit him on the head with the end of his chopsticks, "The baby is still here, you are getting more and more outrageous!"
The old man also nodded, "That's right, be careful with your words as an adult."
"Oh!" Zhou Huaishan glanced awkwardly at the small dining table at the door of the main room.
Zhou Huaian thought about the bricks and tiles, "Old man, Yiding wants to build a bathroom, I promise to give him the lime and bricks and tiles equally."
After hearing this, Zhou's father nodded readily and said, "Okay, Yiding didn't give anyone a penny for helping him find the herbs, so a little brick and lime is nothing, just go get it."
Zhou Huairong and others also nodded repeatedly.
After dinner, Zhou Huaian went to Zhou Yiding’s house and told him about the bricks and tiles, and then they went to the new house together.
Zhou Yiding saw the washboard and faucet in the bathroom and applauded, "Oh, I'm so envious, especially the running water is so good."
Zhou Huaian looked at him proudly, "Haha, be at ease, your sister-in-law came up with this!"
Zhou Yiding nodded, "An Yi! My sister-in-law is really smart."
Zhou Huaian thought about the furniture, "What kind of furniture did you make for me? I don't want to make the same thing twice."
Zhou Yiding smiled and said, "Don't worry, I promise it won't be the same again. I got this new style from the forest farm. I heard it's just become popular in the provincial capital!"
Zhou Huaian asked curiously: "Tell me quickly, what is it like?"
"A large wardrobe with three doors and a large dressing mirror on top..."
"Oh~ so many things, I..."
"Tsk, you're whining again. I find you're becoming more and more like a sissy."
“…”
The two of them looked around and then walked to the back mountain to look at the sown medicinal seeds before going down the mountain and returning home.
Zhao Huifang and the other two returned home before dark. They dug up about 100 kilograms of Bletilla striata. Yang Chunyan picked out several dozen kilograms to use as seeds for Zhou Yiding's family.
…
The next morning, Zhou Huaishan took Zhou Huairong and Zhou Huaijun, a couple, to the mountain to dig Amomum villosum seeds.
The old man took the children to the mountain to pick up stones, and Li Qiuyue took his helpers to make concrete and the floor of the front yard.
Yang Chunyan finished her housework and sent the white hyacinth seeds to Zhou Yiding's house. Seeing Wan Xuejiao there, she smiled and asked, "Did Yiding make the compost?"
Wan Xuejiao spread her hands angrily, "I checked yesterday. There was a pile of dung as big as a basket behind the house. It couldn't even be spread all over the rapeseed field."
Zhou Yiding looked at the two of them awkwardly, "I've never done this before, and those were made by my little sister!"
Wan Xuejiao glared at him and said, "You're right. What old farmer doesn't make compost?"
Zhou Yiding: “…”
"We're going to plant rapeseed soon, and it won't be easy to get fertilizer in a short time!" Yang Chunyan thought for a while, "There's another way. Last time, Huai'an and I went to the bamboo forest to dig bamboo shoots. The fallen leaf fertilizer in the forest was quite thick. Let's go there and dig some."
Wan Xuejiao hesitated after hearing this and said, "Is it possible?"
Yang Chunyan: "It's 100% feasible. When digging, rake the top with a bamboo rake. The bamboo leaves and other things underneath have been fermenting for who knows how many years. They won't be worse than the mature fertilizer we ferment."
"Okay, let's go now." Zhou Yiding said and walked towards the backyard.
Wan Xuejiao hurriedly said, "Sister-in-law, let's go get the fertilizer first, and then come to you in the afternoon to teach us how to grow white hyacinth."
Yang Chunyan nodded and said, "Dig more and bring it back. If yours is not enough, go to my bamboo forest to dig. It's best to push a chicken cart to save the trouble of running back and forth."
"I understand."
Yang Chunyan looked at the impetuous Wan Xuejiao and walked out with a smile.
As soon as we got to Tiankan Road, we saw Zhou's father and two uncles from the same family carrying bamboos. "Old man, are you using bamboos for everything?"
Father Zhou nodded and said, "First move the bamboo up, get some wood to drive the stakes, split the bamboo strips, insert them and tie them up."
Uncle Zhou Datian laughed and said, "Youngest, did you really get some herbs from your plot?"
Yang Chunyan smiled and said, "We want to give it a try, just in case it works!"
Another person said, "I see that other people's homes are planting fruit trees, and the herbs are all wild. Can they survive?"
Yang Chunyan: "Let's give it a try first. Anyway, we didn't have to pay the contract fee in the first few years, so even if the crops don't survive, we'll just lose some money on labor.
Zhou Datian glanced at his father and said, "Second brother, do you also agree that the youngest brother and his friends should grow herbs?"
Father Zhou smiled and said, "They are all married people now. We can't take care of them forever. Let them be."
Zhou Datian was a little moved after hearing this, "Youngest family, if I also get some herbal seeds to plant, will your family harvest them?"
Yang Chunyan nodded readily, "Yes! But let me be frank, the purchase price of herbs can go up and down, and the price I charge must follow the market, so that no one suffers a loss."
She thought that it would be a good thing to have more companies planting their own crops. Once a certain scale was achieved, drug dealers would naturally come to buy the products, and a large quantity would give her a price advantage.
Zhou Datian: "Okay, I'll plant two acres less rapeseed and plant some herbs instead."
"I'll try planting a few acres too, youngest one, you have to harvest it when the time comes!"
After hearing this, Zhou's father said, "Datian, Daqing, don't worry, Chunyan is the most reliable person."
Zhou Datian nodded, "We believe it. After we build the fence for your family, we will go find some herb seeds and spread them on the ground to try."
"It will take the three of us four or five days to finish the youngest one's area." Father Zhou turned around and said to Yang Chunyan, "Your mother said she would make bean paste today, go back and take a look."
"Oh! I'll be back right away."
Today is the end of the week: the end of the weekend! The end of the month! The end of the year! All the unhappiness is wiped out.
Three new things tomorrow: new for the day, new for the month, and new for the year!
I wish all the best to my friends!
