Planting radishes sounds simple, but it actually takes some effort. First, you need to choose a field that can get sunlight and has relatively breathable and fertile soil.
Then deep plow the soil. During the plowing process, you need to add an appropriate amount of base fertilizer to the soil to provide the plants with more sufficient nutrients, which can ensure high yield to a great extent.
After that, you need to dig several trenches on the ground with a depth of about 15 to 30 centimeters and a width of about 10 to 15 centimeters.
Then make a bed next to the ditch. The height should be about 20 to 25 centimeters, the width should be about 1 to 1.5 meters, and the bed surface should be kept flat.
Then sprinkle its seeds evenly into the ditch, a few seeds at a time, not too many, and then cover them with a little soil to cover the seeds.
The work is completed only after all the steps are completed.
Su Nan was allocated a piece of land by himself, next to a stream. The weeds were yellow and withered, and the wind blew gently, giving him a sense of desolation and inexplicable fear.
Holding a hoe in his hand, Su Nan looked at the large piece of land in front of him, but didn't know where to start.
Turning his head to look at Xiao Rong, who was closest to him, and seeing that she had already started working, Su Nan swallowed and began to imitate her movements, working on the soil under his feet.
But the effect was not ideal. Because she was too weak and the hoe was too heavy, it took her a long time to turn over a small piece of land, while the others were already far behind her.
"Where's Zhou Rang?" Su Nan looked around while drinking water, but didn't see anyone. She couldn't help but pouting in grievance.
He was supposed to come and help her with the work, but he still hadn't shown up.
The warm water mixed with the fairy spring water flowed down my throat into my stomach. After a while, I felt that all the strength I had just used up had returned. Not only that, my whole body felt refreshed.
After regaining his strength, Su Nan returned to the fields, rubbed his cold and stiff hands, and then put on gloves.
The gloves were given to her by Zhou Rang. They were originally new white gloves, but she didn't know when they were stained with mud and now they have become dirty and yellow.
She sighed, her eyes became determined, and she dug hard into the compacted soil. However, she didn't expect there was a big rock underneath the soil. With a bang, her palms were numb from the shock.
"Su Zhiqing, this is not how you work. No one in the countryside will want you if you are so pampered." A mocking voice floated over from a distance.
When Su Nan heard the sound, he looked over and saw a thin woman standing on the other side of the field embankment. She had high cheekbones, a pointed chin, and dry and yellow hair that fluttered in the wind like messy weeds.
Just by looking at her face, I could tell that she was difficult to get along with and a mean person, and what she said just confirmed this.
The woman had her hands on the hoe, and was wearing a patched cotton jacket. Her belly was slightly bulging, and it seemed that such a thin figure was actually pregnant with a life.
"It's none of your business." Su Nan didn't tolerate her and directly fought back, then continued to lower his head and dig his own ground.
"You..." Zhang Juan was speechless for a moment. After a long while, she snorted coldly and turned her head away.
After a while, a child came running from the edge of the field with snot running down his nose. He jumped straight to Su Nan and handed her a small note.
It said: "Too many people and too many eyes, wait for lunch break."
The words were written with a fountain pen. The font was vigorous and vigorous, exuding a sense of heroism, and it looked very beautiful.
Su Nan looked at the paper ball in his hand, pondered for a while, then looked at the little carrot-head in front of him with doubt, squatted down and asked gently: "Did a tall and handsome brother ask you to give this to me?"
"Yes." The boy nodded and licked the candy wrapper, as if he was still not satisfied.
Seeing this, Su Nan took out a few White Rabbit candies from his pocket, placed them in front of the boy, and said with a smile: "This is for you, take your time to eat it."
The boy shook his head, took a step back, and said in a baby voice, "Brother has already given me a handful, I can't take it again."
He was a good kid. Su Nan's eyes softened and he continued to whisper, "It's okay. Just take it. What my brother gave me is what my brother gave me, and what my sister gave me is what my sister gave me."
As Su Nan spoke, she stuffed the candy into his waist pocket.
Now is the time when we can never have enough to eat, and sugar is even more rare. It is usually hidden by the adults in the family, and children can only eat one during holidays or when they are sick.
What’s more, it’s the White Rabbit Milk Candy, a specialty of Shanghai. The children in Xiaojia Village have never seen it before.
"Thank you, sister." The boy touched his pocket and smiled with satisfaction.
"Go play." Su Nan touched the boy's little head, smiled and watched him run away and disappear behind the tree.
Su Nan straightened up and turned around, and saw Zhang Juan staring at him, or to be more precise, staring at the few remaining White Rabbit milk candies in her hand.
As expected, the next second, Zhang Juan smiled and said flatteringly, "Su Zhiqing, look, it's inconvenient for me to be pregnant. I feel dizzy after doing just a little work."
Su Nan didn't say anything, just looked at her expressionlessly.
Seeing that she didn't say anything, Zhang Juan pursed her lips and said with a stiff face, "Su Zhiqing, I saw you gave that earth egg so much candy just now. Can you give me a few too? I need to eat them so that I can have the strength to work. Otherwise, what if I faint later?"
Su Nan pretended not to hear and folded his gloves. He glanced at his red and swollen hands, sighed, sat down on the pocket he brought with him, and began to daydream.
When will Zhou Rang come to help her? Oh, oh, oh, she doesn’t want to do this farm work for even a second.
"Su Zhiqing, you can't be so heartless and selfish." Zhang Juan's face gradually darkened and her tone became a little aggressive.
"How can anyone want you even though you're so spoiled? You want to eat candy while working, which family can afford to support you?" Su Nan chuckled and looked at Zhang Juan with a half-smile in his eyes.
Hou Yi didn't expect that she would talk back to him about what he had just said to her. He felt very embarrassed and angry for a moment. He also knew that he would not get any candy, so he could only carry the hoe to the other side in shame, away from Su Nan.
Su Nan sneered, peeled off the candy wrapper, revealing the white and smooth candy inside. He applied a little force with his fingertips and threw it into his mouth.
The mouth was instantly filled with the aroma of milk, which was sweet and greasy, and tasted extremely delicious. Su Nan couldn't help but show an expression of enjoyment.
Zhang Juan couldn't help but look back and saw this scene. She was so angry that she smashed the hoe to the ground twice.
At noon, Xiao Rong, who had finished half of her work, came to invite Su Nan to go back to the village together. When she saw that she had only dug a little bit of the ground, she was so surprised that her jaw almost dropped.
"Su Zhiqing, what were you doing this morning? At this rate, you may not be able to complete the task today." Xiao Rong looked at Su Nan who was sitting on the ground with a sad face.
Hou Yi stretched out his hand, opened his palm for Xiao Rong to see, and whimpered, "My hand is so painful from being rubbed. If you do it again, my hand will be broken."
Xiao Rong felt that she must be seriously injured after hearing this, and she was thinking about taking her to the community clinic.
When he lowered his head, he saw that there were no other scars on the white and delicate palm except for a few red marks.
