Chapter 336 Going to Qingyang County to See the Cotton Fields
Zeng Xiaoyan also smiled and said, "That's right. Otherwise, we would just divide the silver, how could we feel comfortable taking it? We have to do something to be decent. My second sister-in-law wanted to do it for me, and she said that I should have a good rest. I said that this work is not tiring at all, and there is no need to rest specially. Which aunts, sisters-in-law and sisters-in-law in our village don't work in the fields when they are pregnant? Aren't they all fine? My second sister-in-law said again that I am different from others. After all, I am a daughter of a wealthy family, so my health is of course more precious. I ignored her."
"You really think I don't know what she's up to. If we leave this to her, it will be disastrous!"
Xu Zhichun and others laughed when they heard this.
Thinking about Zhao's style of doing things, Xu Zhichun also felt a little uneasy.
Zhao has no sense of propriety.
If she really worked "for" Zeng Xiaoyan, she would not just do her job honestly. She would ask questions about everything and would want to remember everything carefully. After returning, she would probably describe the whole thing to her parents and let them try it out.
As for what would happen if her family members tried it out and set up a stall in the city to sell it, and maybe even sell it at a lower price, she wouldn't care what would happen if Xu Zhichun found out.
Nor will I feel guilty.
If the village head had not disallowed her, her aunt would have been able to control her. She would have run to Xu Zhichun countless times to make various requests.
Neither Xu Zhichun nor Aunt Zhu'er is willing to work with Zhao.
Even Xiao Muxiang knew about it. After hearing what Zeng Xiaoyan said, she quickly said, "Mrs. Liang Sanshao, if you need to rest, just rest well. There's no need to ask anyone to help. This is not much work to begin with. I can do more, really! No problem at all!"
Everyone laughed even more.
Zeng Xiaoyan laughed heartily: "Okay, okay, look how scared you are!"
Mu Xiang was embarrassed: "Ah, no no, I'm not scared"
"Okay, okay, I understand!"
"hey-hey."
While chatting and laughing, the few of them discussed and arranged everything. Xu Zhichun decided to let Yang Xiaoan drive himself, Qin Qingma and Chunfen to the Loujia Village Farm the next morning, and asked Zhang Quan to drive them to Qingyang County.
Muxiang brought her much-grown dog Xiaoshan to stay at home to look after the house. The house was large and the gates to the front and back yards were locked, so it was very safe. Muxiang was not a spoiled child, so it was no problem for her to stay alone.
The next day, when they went to Qingyang County, Liang Xiaoman drove the carriage and took Zhang Quan with him, sitting on the edge of the carriage so that they could take turns driving.
There was only some finishing work left in the fields. Mao Xiaofeng was a skilled farmer, and it was enough for him and Liu Guang to keep an eye on the remaining farm work. No one could mess with Mao Xiaofeng's work.
Liang Xiaoman wanted to travel more and see more, and he also suggested to Aunt Zhichun that he and Zhang Quan, both men, should accompany her, which would be more impressive and more impressive.
In case something happens along the way, having more people means more strength.
Xu Zhichun thought about it and it made sense.
It is true that Chunfen girl is strong and good at fighting, but she is thin and small, and her intimidation ability is zero.
You can't just fight with people all the time. It would be better if you can solve the problem by deterring them.
We arrived at the village before lunch.
When Manager Mao heard that the boss had arrived, he hurried out to greet him and asked the kitchen to start cooking.
"I guessed that Madam might come over these few days, and sure enough she did."
Xu Zhichun smiled and asked, "How are the cotton seedlings growing?"
"About three inches."
"Then we've come at the perfect time. I'll go check it out this afternoon so we can get started on transplanting. Are the cotton fields ready?"
"Yes, the base fertilizer has been prepared according to Madam's instructions."
"Thank you for your hard work, Manager Mao."
"Haha, as it should be, as it should be."
Xu Zhichun introduced Liang Xiaoman and Mao Guanshi.
The two men greeted each other in a friendly manner and looked at each other secretly. No one dared to underestimate the other, and the reason was surprisingly the same.
Manager Mao had already been frightened by Xu Zhichun's repeated attacks. Now that he saw Xu Zhichun, he had to behave himself and didn't dare to have any evil thoughts.
Although Manager Liang looks young, his young age shows that he is remarkable, has outstanding qualities, and is not easy to mess with. Otherwise, why would Madam Xu promote him?
Liang Xiaoman thought much the same. Manager Mao must have some special qualities, otherwise why would Aunt Zhichun hire him as a manager? She must seize the opportunity to communicate and learn from him.
Master said that only by seeing more, moving more, and learning more can we accumulate more and more experience, do better, and go further.
The two people had similar thoughts, and they were very polite and friendly when they communicated with each other. The atmosphere was extremely harmonious.
Chunfen liked this farm very much. He was happy to come here. After lunch, he said goodbye to Xu Zhichun and ran out to play.
In the evening, when the sun was about to set, Manager Mao took Xu Zhichun to see the nursery.
Liang Xiaoman and Nanny Qin Qing also went together.
In the eyes of Manager Mao and others, cotton seedlings were precious things. They were very cautious when taking care of them. They did whatever Xu Zhichun instructed and did not dare to relax at all.
Although Xu Zhichun didn't understand this at first, there were many books of this kind in the space. After studying hard, she now understood it and it was no problem for her to call herself a semi-expert.
These seeds are all high-quality varieties. They are not only good at producing cotton bolls, but also have advantages in disease and pest resistance. As long as they are cultivated carefully, the seedlings will definitely be strong and solid.
Looking at the vast expanse of lush, green, and vigorous cotton seedlings, Xu Zhichun was overjoyed.
According to Sanye Yixin's standards, these cottons are just in the right period for transplanting.
"Everyone has worked hard. Once the cotton seedlings are transplanted, everyone will get a reward."
The farmhands accompanying her were all delighted and expressed their gratitude, "Don't worry, Madam. We will transplant the cotton seedlings carefully and ensure that every one of them grows well."
"Yes, these are cotton seedlings, they are very valuable!"
Manager Mao also smiled and thanked everyone, "Madam, you are so kind and generous. If we don't work hard, what will become of us?"
"Yes, Manager Mao is right!"
The next morning, when transplanting the seedlings, Xu Zhichun and others went to the field in person.
Xu Zhichun began to give guidance little by little, asking him to use a mini shovel to shovel away the cultivation soil as much as possible when taking out the seedlings, handle them with care, dig holes in the ground to plant shallowly, and water them enough to help them take root.
The sun was too strong, so we spread out rolls of burlap that we had prepared in advance, and fixed them section by section with stakes, and shaded the cotton seedlings ridge by ridge and piece by piece.
The farmhands and tenants all found it novel.
After all, I've never seen anyone do this when growing so many crops.
Although this burlap is rough, it can be used to make clothes. It is just right for wearing when working. It would be a waste to use it to shade the seedlings.
But since their boss asked them to do so, they didn't dare to say anything and had to do it while feeling bad about it.
"These cotton seedlings are so precious!"
"That's right! More precious than a human being."
"Cotton is valuable."
"That's right, Madam knows a lot, she said this will definitely not be wrong!"
