Chapter 145 Farm Vegetable Garden and Orchard



Seeing that Liu Siqing and Wang Dachui were struggling to move their legs, Su Qingci realized that they had obviously over-exercised without stretching, resulting in muscle soreness.

She knows best how intense and unpleasant that feeling can be.

Given that the two of them had been tricked by him and Song Jingzhou, he still felt a little ashamed.

So he generously gave the two of them two days off.

Let the two of them rest at home and come to work when they go to the market the day after tomorrow.

After Xiao Yuehua was diagnosed with pregnancy, she acted no differently than usual.

At first, she would occasionally feel nauseous to prove that she was pregnant, but now she's excited all the time.

I still go to work on time every day, and I'm eating more than before.

This made Feng Jianjun quite anxious and a little irritable.

"Su, Su Qingci, um, you go back first, I'll go see what dishes are available."

After getting off work, Song Jingzhou locked the door and said to Su Qingci.

Since that incident, he has never dared to let her eat without gaining weight again.

Calling me by my full name feels a bit awkward.

Su Qingci knew that Song Jingzhou was referring to the black market, and quickly said, "Okay, let's see if there's any meat."

"Fine, I'll go with you. I'll stop by the grain depot on the way."

"We're almost out of food at home."

Did you bring food coupons?

"I brought it."

"Don't buy too much. After the late rice harvest, the team will distribute this year's grain."

Su Qingci rolled her eyes.

"Have you forgotten that you're a cowherd?"

"Do you think you're like Liu Siqing, earning twelve work points a day in the team?"

"Whether or not the grain is distributed doesn't seem to have much to do with us."

“When I first arrived, I asked the team for an advance of 20 jin of grain, but it will definitely be deducted when the grain is distributed.”

"I think I'd be lucky if the work points I earned from herding cattle were enough to feed me for a month."

Su Qingci gave Song Jingzhou a disdainful look, "And you."

"They're not much better off than me."

Song Jingzhou gave an awkward laugh and changed the subject.

"Then you don't need to buy too much, it's rare to bring it up."

"It's nearby anyway, we can buy it anytime!"

"How many grain coupons did you bring? I have ten jin here, you can take it first."

Do you have any money left? Here, ten dollars.

He rummaged through his pocket, took out a few tickets, picked out a "Big Reunion" ticket, and handed it to Su Qingci.

"Let's buy this much for now. Although our work points don't amount to much grain in the team, it's still much cheaper for commune members to buy grain in their own production team than at the grain station."

"When the grain comes in, we'll buy it directly from the brigade."

Su Qingci took the money and tickets that Song Jingzhou handed her without hesitation and stuffed them into her pocket.

The two parted ways at the street corner, and she did not go to the grain station.

Instead, he took a side road and headed home.

Back home, I closed the door and slipped into the farm.

First, I found a burlap sack and took out 20 jin (10 catties) of rice.

She really doesn't like sweet potato rice; it looks greasy after eating too much of it.

Those sweet potatoes weren't the superior varieties cultivated in later generations; they didn't taste good at all.

After putting the grain sacks in the kitchen, Su Qingci returned to her room and went into the farm.

I glanced up at the countdown clock on the TV.

127 hours, 17 minutes, and 43 seconds.

127 hours, 17 minutes, and 42 seconds.

After Shen Chuntao's box of antiques came in last time.

Every day at midnight, the countdown clock on the farm will refresh with eight hours of time.

She's much better off now, and she's not as frugal as she used to be.

Anyway, she never went to the toilet in that era again.

She never wanted to see those swarms of white insects crawling past her shoes again in this sweltering heat.

Sometimes, when it gets too hot at night, she'll splurge and sleep in the villa with the air conditioning on.

Previously, due to time constraints...

She hurriedly picked the ripe vegetables from the large vegetable fields on the farm and threw them into the warehouse.

The land is all lying idle.

Su Qingci walked in the field, where the vines on the cucumber and bean trellises had slowly withered.

The chili peppers, eggplants, tomatoes, and trees have all dried up.

However, the cut chives have grown back.

On the various vegetable roots that had been cut off nearby, some new seedlings were swaying in the wind.

This vegetable garden is quite large, divided into small sections. It was originally marketed as a place for guests to experience rural life, so it's been made quite exquisite.

Yunnan has a good climate, and a wide variety of vegetables can be grown here.

Now that we have plenty of time, we can go to the warehouse and see if we have any vegetable seeds.

After mentally planning the vegetable garden, Su Qingci walked towards the orchard behind it.

The farm's orchard is several times larger than its vegetable garden.

After all, the vegetables in the vegetable garden are mostly consumed on the farm, while many guests take away the fruit from the orchard.

The orchard is not only large, but also has a wide variety of fruits and vegetables.

The fruit trees were all hybrid varieties that Ms. Xu Jia had found from various places.

Peach, apricot, loquat, papaya, orange, banana, apple, waxberry, mango, dragon fruit, custard apple, grape, soft-seeded pomegranate, longan, kiwi...

It can be said that most of the fruits that can be grown in Yunnan can be found here.

There are many fruit trees, some varieties have a small patch, and some only have a few trees.

Hami melons and watermelons were still rolling on the ground under the fruit trees.

Su Qingci bent down, picked up a watermelon the size of a child's ball, and smashed it open with one punch.

I don't know where Uncle Dasheng found this strange breed.

The flesh inside was surprisingly yellow.

I took a bite, and it tasted alright.
