Chapter 126 The temperature slowly rises again



"What? Are you jealous?"

"Oh."

Am I not beautiful?

Feng Ran looked at Feng Nangui, who had suddenly appeared beside him, and said with a teasing smile.

"..."

"What's that expression on your face?"

"nothing."

"mock up!"

Watching the two walk away, Yang Lin began to wolf down his rice.

It's so delicious! I was thinking of finishing this quickly so I could get another bowl.

Feng Nangui followed Feng Ran back to their room.

As soon as he entered the room and closed the door, he blocked Feng Ran in front of it.

"What's wrong... um~"

Several minutes had passed since the kiss. Feng Ran looked at the man in front of her, slightly out of breath.

I really don't know what's wrong with him, it's so inexplicable.

"What's wrong? Are you unhappy?"

"No. I just wanted to kiss you."

"You're so glib. I never knew you were so good at talking."

"That's because you don't have much experience."

"Pfft—" Feng Ran couldn't help but laugh.

Qi Xie, who was passing by outside the door, frowned and quickly went back inside.

More than a month later, the corn in the space ripened.

The weather finally started to clear up.

The temperature began to rise by one or two degrees.

"Everyone! Quiet down! The temperature is starting to rise! I'll rearrange the work later. Also, there will be a batch of corn to husk tomorrow. Everyone be prepared."

Everyone nodded in agreement.

That evening, Fengran and Jixiang entered the space and began cutting corn.

The next day, along with the straw, they were all dumped in the yard for everyone to pick corn cobs.

Straw was used to feed the animals, and corn cobs were thrown into the greenhouse for the girls to peel. The boys broke off pieces of corn from the stalks outside.

Division of labor and cooperation.

The cornfield was harvested in just three days.

Jixiang drove the floor-turning vehicle and turned over the entire space. Only then did Fengran have time to arrange the next tasks.

First: The soil in the yard needs to be turned over.

Second: We need to start planting fruits, vegetables, and grains in the yard. The boys will till the soil. Sowing will only begin after the temperature rises above zero.

Third: Everyone should dig a water storage pond in the middle of the yard. It should be ten meters long and wide, and at least ten meters deep.

"Did everyone hear that? Starting today, after morning training each day, the boys will take turns chopping wood in pairs, while the rest of you will dig a water storage tank. Use machines if you can, and use shovels if you can't."

"OK!"

"good!"

...

"Then everyone can go home. Go about your business tomorrow."

In less than a month, the temperature rose back to three or four degrees.

Sowing has officially begun.

Tomatoes, peppers, cucumbers, eggplants, green beans, leafy greens... I planted a small patch of each.

The reservoir is in the middle, and since it hasn't rained during that time, it's still dry.

Because there was already a lot of sand and gravel in the yard, it took a long time to dig. Since we dug out a lot of yellow mud, we first spread a layer of animal manure on the ground, then a layer of soil with less sand and gravel on top. This made the vegetable garden more suitable for growing fruits and vegetables.

Moreover, Feng Ran had already cultivated many vegetable seedlings in the space.

So when the outside temperature reaches ten degrees Celsius, people start transplanting vegetable seedlings into the ground.

Everyone goes to check on the vegetable patch every day, afraid that the vegetables will die.

There are two large sheds nearby. One small one is used for large group meals. The cloth covering the outside of the larger shed has been removed. Inside, there are cages housing many chickens, ducks, geese, and rabbits.

Dozens of geese were also hatched.

The girl took care of feeding the child morning, noon, and night.

The thriving atmosphere throughout the base is very pleasing to the eye.

Two months later, the tomatoes were ripe, as were the cucumbers and green beans...

Moreover, everyone originally planted climbing plants such as bitter gourd and loofah around their houses.

Everyone can pick and eat a lot of loofah and bitter melon every day.

Moreover, animal manure is buried in the vegetable garden every two weeks.

The vegetables and fruits were well cared for and looked fresh and juicy. Fortunately, Feng Ran had a reservoir dug, and over time, groundwater has slowly seeped in!

It was exactly half a pool, no more, no less. But after using it today, the level rebounded the next day—it's practically a treasure!

Fearing poisoning or water quality issues, Feng Ran also threw a few fish in.

According to the calendar, there's only one week left until Chinese New Year. But the temperature right now feels like springtime.

The girls and aunt couldn't stay idle, so they planted scallions, garlic, and ginger in every available space around the house.

Moreover, a circle of sunflowers was planted around the base of the wall.

The outside was also covered with thorns.

Before we knew it, the mountain had slowly turned completely green.

Every few days, the two aunts would go out for a stroll with the wood-chopping team.

Yesterday, they found a large field of shepherd's purse, and then Fengran and the others went to dig for it.

When I got home in the evening, I naturally had to have dumplings.

When I came back yesterday, I passed by the stream I had visited before.

Watercress! Parsley! Polygonum hydropiper! Everywhere you look there are watercress!

And they're all tiny seedlings, so tender.

The younger people couldn't distinguish which wild vegetables were edible, but the two older women knew the basics.

The next day, everyone went out together again, carrying baskets and bags.

Come on, come on!

Everyone thoroughly cleaned the entire stream from beginning to end! They even caught some small fish, shrimp, and crabs.

That very evening, we ate deep-fried and spicy food.

It was both crispy and fragrant.

It took several people four days to finish working by the stream.

Then they discovered another river on the other side of the mountain.

What else can we do but keep picking wild vegetables!

Anyway, there are more of them.

They also discovered a large patch of bamboo shoots. The men dug them up, and the women peeled them.
