Chapter 37: Chicken Ribs
"It's better if you're stupid, so you don't get embarrassed." Kang Mingyuan pretended to hit him again, but Han Yima had already run away.
It was already dusk when they returned to the educated youth point. Qiao Mo read a book for two hours under the oil lamp, then blew out the light and went to bed to practice "The Secret of Herbs and Trees". After everyone turned off the lights and rested, he slipped into the wooden bracelet space.
She went behind the bungalow first. The first thing she saw was the small pond. The water in it was crystal clear and you could see the bottom. Small fish and shrimps were playing in the water, causing ripples from time to time. These small ripples made the whole pond full of life.
Qiao Mo looked at the crops he had planted. The wheat and corn were more than four feet tall. Finally, the potatoes, mung beans, carrots, and spinach he had planted also sprouted. It seemed that this black soil had the ability to destroy plants.
She knew inexplicably that except for the bungalow which had a preservation function and the things put in it would always remain the same, the time in other places was synchronized with the outside.
"The paddy fields have turned into ponds, and these lands need to be replanned." Qiao Mo strolled along the edge of the black soil, replanning the land in his mind, and finally decided to put the orchard in the middle: the original plan was to put the paddy fields on the easternmost side, and then from east to west there would be wheat fields, coarse grain fields, vegetable fields and orchards.
Now that the paddy field has become a pond, she wants to move the orchard next to the pond, followed by the paddy field, wheat field, coarse grain field, and vegetable field. If she plans in this way, she only needs to separate the orchard and the paddy field with a fence, and she can raise ducks in the pond and chickens in the orchard, thus improving the utilization rate of the wooden space.
Because of the addition of a pond, one acre of land was lost. The paddy field, wheat field and coarse grain field could not be converted. She wanted to have a private plot outside to grow vegetables, so the vegetable field was reduced a bit, and the rest of the land was taken from the orchard. Originally, there were more than two acres of land left for growing fruit trees, but now only more than one acre is left.
Of course, the reason she'd set aside so much land for fruit growing was out of laziness. After all, she was in the countryside now, exhausted from working every day, so how could she possibly find the time to work in the space every day? Planting fruit trees was different. All she had to do was plant the trees, water them occasionally, and wait for the fruits to ripen before picking them. It was much easier than farming.
The land she planned to cultivate was currently being planted with wheat, so she was in no hurry and had nothing else to do. She planned to go into the bungalow to see what was inside.
So, she walked into the bungalow again and opened the antique cabinet: her intuition told her that this cabinet was not brought in by Yang Yang, it should belong to this space.
The cabinet is divided into two layers. The upper layer is full of cloth in various colors and patterns. It is neither silk, cotton, nor linen. Qiao Mo looked at it for a long time but couldn't figure out what it was.
The lower level was filled with books. She took out one and flipped through it. It was a travelogue, but the place recorded was obviously not the world she was in now, nor the world she had been in before. She looked at it carefully and found that the paper was not ordinary either. It was beige, thin and light, but very tough. It should be made of some kind of animal skin.
She flipped through a few more books, including history, geography, and some records of all things, and stories about herbs... Finally, she saw a few martial arts secret books in it. She had a hunch that Yang Yang had never opened this cabinet. This feeling made her feel absurd, but it really existed.
