Chapter 199: Tickets for Vines



"Do you have sweet potatoes growing at home now? I would like to exchange some sweet potato vines with you for planting."

Aunt Cui didn't expect that the sweet potato vines that could only be used to feed chickens and ducks at home could be exchanged for other things, but if she really went to exchange them, she couldn't do it to take advantage of others.

That's right, those things are of no use to her, she can just take them and cut them wherever she wants, why spend any money on them.

"You can just go to my private plot and harvest it. I have a lot of it planted here and feed it directly to the pigs."

I originally wanted to let her do the circumcision herself, but when I saw her big belly, I swallowed the words back and couldn't say it out loud.

"Let me help you cut it. How much do you want?"

"Auntie, I can't take advantage of you. I'll use my daily necessities coupons to exchange for them, okay? I don't need a lot, maybe enough to plant two mu of land."

Su Qingxue thought about how hard her aunt and the others worked in the fields. Sometimes, even when it rained and the road was difficult to walk on, they still had to work.

I took a ticket for rain boots. I had quite a lot of this kind of tickets, so I didn't feel bad at all to exchange them for some sweet potato vines.

Aunt Cui asked for some leave from her husband and left with Su Qingxue.

Su Qingxue looked at the captain of Team 3, Zhao Tieniu, and opened her mouth, wanting to say something, but finally closed it again.

If someone else asked for such a long leave, it might not be allowed. However, the person who asked for leave was the tigress at home, so she didn't dare to say a word.

Generally, when working in the fields, you cannot take leave for too long. If you go to the toilet, you may have to come back in ten minutes. If you take too long, your work points will be deducted.

He quietly went to the field allocated to his wife to help with the work, and at the very least, he could not let others gossip about him.

All I can say is that if there is a backup person, no one should have any objection even if it only takes an hour.

The two of them went directly to Aunt Cui's private plot, where they planted sweet potatoes, corn, and various vegetables.

But there are many people in the family. According to the population, each person has two plots of land. There are five people in their family, so the private plot is as large as one acre.

The vegetable garden is quite rich, but most of them are sweet potatoes, potatoes, corn and other things that can satisfy hunger.

Aunt Cui was very fast. She was only two minutes away and when she came back she brought a very large backpack.

Take a small sickle and start cutting the sweet potato vines.

Originally, Su Qingxue thought that she worked very fast, but compared with Aunt Cui, she found that she was still not efficient enough.

In less than five minutes, the huge backpack was completely filled.

"Qingxue! The backpack seems a bit heavy. Let me help you carry it back!"

I was really worried when I saw that big belly. It's only six months pregnant, but it's already bigger than other babies' when they are about to give birth.

Su Qingxue quickly refused. Although her movements were not as agile, she was definitely stronger than her.

"No need, Aunt Cui. You know me. I'm so strong that I don't feel tired at all."

He quickly took out the rain boots ticket that he had prepared in advance and stuffed it directly into her hand.

"Aunt, please don't refuse. We don't need this at home, and I think you can use it. If you don't accept it, I won't be able to accept so many vines."

There are so many sweet potato vines that it feels like three acres of land could be fully planted, let alone two acres.

Aunt Cui looked at the ticket in her hand. She really wanted it, but she was too embarrassed to accept it.

The return was postponed, but Su Qingxue just refused to accept it.

Su Qingxue was walking very fast with the things in her hands, and she was worried that she would catch up with her and ask her to return the things to her.

Aunt Cui looked at Su Zhiqing running so fast, as if he had just gotten rid of a big trouble, which made her both angry and amused.

Since Su Zhiqing gave it sincerely, she just kept the ticket.

Although my eldest daughter received some tickets after she started working, some things are still not easy to get.

After checking the time, I realized that I had been on leave for a long time, so I decided not to waste any more time and hurried to the work site.

When he returned to the field and saw the people assigned to his land, the corners of his mouth curled up slightly. He knew that Tie Niu cared about him and would help him with the work.

After Su Qingxue returned home, she took out a pair of scissors and cut the sweet potato vines she had just cut into pieces.

When I cut it just now, it was too long, so I had to trim it myself when I got back.

It was cut into about 20 cm lengths and was done in less than half an hour.

At this time, the weather is not hot at all, it is a good time to work.

He went straight to the backyard with a hoe, cut the repaired ground into baskets, and dug trenches to bury the sweet potato vines.

After the ditch is dug, place the sweet potato vines in it according to the distance, and then use a hoe to fill the dug ditch.

I don’t feel farming is particularly tiring at all.

Two mu of sweet potato land was used for planting, and corn and potatoes together were only a little over one mu of land. The remaining space was reserved for planting cherry tomatoes and chili peppers.

After all the land was planted, I used the water in the space to water it. I have been using the water in the space to water the land for some time, and it feels like it is almost used up.

It seems that I need to take some time to go to the river in the next two days and store more water in the space.

Seeing that it was getting late, Su Qingxue thought about cooking the rice quickly.

As for cooking, let's wait until Zhou Huaian and Sun Rui come back.

Thinking that I haven’t eaten beef for a long time, and there was still so much beef in the space, I directly took out two pounds and prepared to have a stir-fried beef in the evening.

As for whether you will doubt the origin of the beef?

That's not a problem.

We have already reached a tacit understanding. One doesn't ask, the other doesn't say, and we just muddle along like this!

After washing the rice and cooking, I took a bath. Although I washed myself in the afternoon, I was busy all afternoon and still felt very dirty. I really couldn't stand it for a moment.

When Zhou Huaian got off work, he saw that the fields had been planted and his wife was sitting by the well, rubbing her clothes.

He quickly walked over and took over the work in her hands, "You go sit inside, I'll wash these clothes."

From the dirty water in the basin, he knew that today would be another day of trouble. Fortunately, he was used to it and just pretended not to see it.

Sun Rui also came along. He was used to it now. He would come here to eat after get off work, and then go back to boil some hot water for a bath, and then go to rest right after the bath.

You don't have to be too self-disciplined in your daily life.

So when he saw Zhou Huaian washing clothes, he didn't say anything and went into the kitchen to cook.

When Su Qingxue looked at the two of them, she thought they were such hardworking people!

Zhou Huaian was taken down by himself, and he didn’t know who would benefit from Sun Rui in the future.
