Chapter 57: Market, a bustling big town
Jiang Ning was shocked and stunned at first, but then slowly calmed down.
She once again thought of Qin Jiulie's strange reactions last night, and the way the man held her tightly, refusing to let go.
All this has a more conclusive explanation.
I can't bear to...
After all, I just got married and I just got a sweet and soft wife, how can I bear to leave her?
If I had known this earlier...
It would be better to let him eat his fill again.
Jiang Ning thought about the rejection last night and suddenly felt a little regretful.
Sister Xu continued to comfort her.
"This is your first time experiencing this kind of thing, so it's normal to feel strange. The sisters-in-law in the compound have experienced it a lot and are used to it.
If you feel bored staying in the house alone, go out for a walk and chat with your sisters-in-law. We all come from all over the world, and it is fate that we can be together. We are all warm-hearted people.
I live in the first row and the first household at the entrance of the compound. If you have any problem, just come to me! ”
"Sister Xu, I have long regarded this place as my home. If I need anything, I will definitely come to you. You are absolutely welcome."
Jiang Ning smiled and nodded vigorously.
Sister Xu’s personality is similar to Sister Hong from the textile factory. She is an old revolutionary, enthusiastic, and has a passion for struggle that comes from her bones.
Moreover, Sister Xu has been engaged in grassroots work. Even though her husband is already an instructor in the regiment, she still does not feel any sense of distance.
The two had a very pleasant conversation.
When Jiang Ning saw Sister Xu off, he not only gave her wedding candy, but also some cakes.
She also learned more about the military camp and the compound from Sister Xu.
For example, a party in a military camp...
For example, there are open days every month...
The military camp is far from being as serious and rigid as most people imagine, and it also has many humane aspects.
…
Qin Jiulie was gone for more than ten days.
Everything was just as Sister Xu said, no news at all.
During this period, only occasionally could the sound of cannons be heard from afar.
I could barely tell that the location of the actual combat exercise was far away and the fighting was intense.
There is nothing else.
These days.
Jiang Ning was not idle either.
She was busy around the small vegetable patch in front of the yard.
First up, the chili peppers.
On the day Grandpa and Grandma Qin came, Jiang Ning went to Wang Chunxia's house to borrow food and brought back a handful of dried chilies.
The dried chili peppers are bright red in color, and look like chili peppers in shape.
Jiang Ning takes out the pepper seeds from the dried peppers, and then uses the "wet paper towel germination method" to germinate them.
The so-called "wet towel germination method" is to place the plant seeds in a wet towel sprayed with water, and then put it in a sealed bag.
Generally, it takes three or four days for the seeds to germinate.
The advantage of doing this is that the wet paper towel can provide a moist and warm environment for a long time, and the chance of seeds germinating will be higher than directly sowing them in the soil.
It can effectively improve the utilization rate of seeds.
Jiang Ning didn’t have any wet wipes, so he used a piece of cotton cloth, sprinkled it with water from the Lingquan River, and placed it in the Lingbao space.
Just one day.
The seeds of dried chili peppers grew white sprouts with a germination rate of up to 100%.
Jiang Ning was overjoyed.
The Space Boy also exclaimed in amazement. This was the first time he saw seeds sprout with his own eyes.
The germinated pepper seeds were divided into two parts.
One portion was planted in the Lingbao space.
Jiang Ning wanted to try whether the seeds from the outside world could grow in the Lingbao space.
The other portion was planted in a small vegetable garden.
Jiangning used one eighth of his land to grow peppers, as well as some onions, ginger, garlic and other seasonings.
I didn't expect both sides to grow so well.
In the Lingbao space, in just three short days, the peppers have grown, bloomed, and produced fruit.
The branches are dotted with red chili peppers.
In the vegetable garden of the courtyard.
The seeds that had just sprouted have now become seedlings and have grown their first true leaves.
The so-called true leaves mean that the plant has passed its infancy and has entered a period of vigorous growth.
Jiang Ning observed it carefully.
The peppers she grows grow faster than ordinary ones.
This should be the result of growing seedlings in the Lingbao space and watering them with the Lingquan stream water.
so.
When Jiang Ning later planted corn, peanuts and sweet potatoes, he also first raised the seedlings in the Lingbao space and then took them out and planted them in the yard.
These days.
Jiang Ning was busy in the vegetable garden.
Many sisters-in-law came over to watch, chatting and watching Jiang Ning busy.
Especially Liu Xiangmei.
She seemed to have forgotten what Jiang Ning had said to her before. She had nothing to do all day, so she took her two daughters and lay on the fence between the two houses.
I was eating melon seeds while watching Jiang Ning working on the soil.
After hearing that Jiang Ning was growing food, he actively dissuaded him.
"Sister Ning, our yard is so small. Do you think the things you grow will be enough for many people to eat? You might as well plant some flowers like Sister Xu. Flowers are beautiful and colorful, and they make people feel good when they see them."
"Do you like flowers?"
Jiang Ning asked back as if he was concerned.
Liu Xiangmei nodded immediately and said excitedly.
"Yes, I like it! The azaleas in my hometown are all over the mountain. They are so beautiful! What woman doesn't like flowers?"
"If you like it, you can grow it yourself! I don't like it anyway. I like things that are edible!"
As Jiang Ning spoke, he grabbed the hoe and dropped it heavily to the ground.
Menacing.
Liu Xiangmei was frightened and dared not speak anymore.
Liu Xiangmei turned her head in anger and said, "Humph, you are just a little girl, do you really think you can farm? I want to see how much you can grow."
She took her two daughters, muttering something, and left in frustration.
Jiangning also had peace and quiet.
In such a situation where everyone is not optimistic.
But unexpectedly.
In just a dozen days, Jiang Ning's small vegetable patch had been neatly tended and became lush and green.
At first glance, it's all green.
Even the fast-growing greens such as Chinese cabbage and cauliflower can be picked.
This day has also reached the fifteenth.
This is the day Jiang Ning is most looking forward to.
Because on this day, she could finally go down the mountain to attend the market!
