Chapter 63 Digging
Although Song Hexiu didn't want to discourage his daughter, he didn't want her to work in vain, so he said earnestly, "Aman, the land here can't be used for farming. Apart from the trees on the mountain and some common herbs and wild vegetables, other crops can't grow."
Song Chuman said, "Father, since wild vegetables can grow in the soil on the mountain, we can definitely plant them. We can move some soil down from the mountain and plant them in my wooden flower pots. This way, it will be convenient for us to eat vegetables in the future."
Song Hexiu was stunned for a moment, then thought about it seriously. "Yes, many wealthy families use ceramic pots to grow flowers and plants. Rich families use porcelain pots directly. It's also mentioned in the storybook that the flowers favored by wealthy families are precious and delicate. If planted outdoors, they will either die from the cold or the heat. They need to be moved back and forth frequently. So even if the soil is placed in a container, it can still support the growth of the plants."
But he always felt something was wrong.
If these lands were suitable for cultivation, the imperial court should have allowed them to do so long ago, right?
What if the land on the mountain can only grow those few things?
Song Chuman nodded: "Yes, so before it gets dark, Ah Huai and I will go carry some soil down the mountain so that we can have fresh vegetables to eat. Eating more vegetables is good for your health."
Supplement vitamins to prevent internal heat and constipation.
Song Hexiu suggested: "Okay, Dad will go up the mountain with you later."
Song Chuman: "Dad, just take a rest. We can do it."
With that she began to assemble her wooden box.
Song Chuhuai was not stupid either. After watching what his elder sister had done, he started to assemble it.
Song Hexiu didn't say anything. He just had to follow them quietly.
Soon, the two of them assembled a small wooden box.
Seeing that Song Chuhuai was about to assemble more, Song Chuman quickly stopped him and said, "Okay, let's carry the remaining planks up the mountain. As we assemble each one, we'll put it into the soil. It will be troublesome to carry them all up the mountain."
"Okay." Song Chuhuai nodded.
When the two saw Song Hexiu turn around, he disappeared in a flash.
When Song Hexiu realized that the two were missing, he chased after them but couldn't even find their shadow.
These two children are becoming more and more of a worry.
Sheng Shuwan saw her husband's worry and comforted him, "The children are very strong. With the Sea Goddess here, they will be fine. Don't worry."
Song Hexiu also felt that what his wife said made sense, so he stopped worrying about it and prepared dinner with his wife.
Song Chuman and Song Chuhuai came to the mountain, found a place with softer soil, and started digging.
However, there were still a lot of weeds on the mountain, and the two did not want to stay on the mountain for too long, so they planned to put the weeds and soil into a small wooden box first, and then sort them out slowly when they returned.
The two worked together, one assembling and the other digging, and soon all ten wooden boxes were filled.
On the way back, Song Chuhuai suddenly thought of something and said with surprise, "Sister, if we transport all the soil from the mountain down the mountain and cover our five acres of land, do you think we can grow vegetables and rice on our land?"
Song Chuman laughed and said, "Ahuai is really smart, but this method won't work. After watering, or after wind and rain, the land will return to its original state."
If a tornado comes and rolls all the sea water onto the land, or if a tsunami suddenly comes and floods the land, there will be a backlash very quickly.
