Doomsday wearing female honor: I rely on space to farm and raise my husband

Chapter 14 Watermelon Seeds

Fang Qing counted dried fruit at twenty Wen a catty, and one tael of silver could buy fifty. Do you want to buy fifty catties?Forget it, I still buy 25 catties. If I buy more, I’m afraid I won’t be able to finish it.

"Boss, you weigh me 25 catties."

Zhang Zelin glared at Fang Qing, saying that he didn't buy much at all, how could this person be called so much.

Fang Qing turned her head back and said to him, "We can't finish eating tomorrow, so let us eat slowly."

"Miss, 25 catties have been weighed. I added two catties for you, miss. I will give these two catties to miss." The preserved fruit owner weighed the dried fruit, carried the dried fruit in a bag and came out.

"Okay, you keep this money." Fang Qing gave the boss a tael of silver, and the boss took the money and gave Fang Qing five hundred copper coins.

Fang Qing lifted the dried fruit onto the carriage, and drove the carriage to the gate of the city to find Mrs. Zhang and the others. Zhang Zelin looked at the things in the carriage, where should he look?
Mrs. Zhang and the others went to buy some things, and waited for Fang Qing and the others at the gate of the city. They waited for a long time and saw that they hadn't come back. They wondered if the two of them were shopping everywhere, and they haven't come back until now. Fang Qing came.

"Girl Qing, let's go back when we come back!"

"Okay." Seeing what Old Madam Zhang said, Fang Qing didn't let Xia Ye and the others come to her carriage, because there were too many things in her carriage, and Xia Ye and the others couldn't fit right now.

When they arrived at the entrance of the village, the sharp-eyed villagers saw Zhang Meng driving a cow and asked jokingly. "Ha! Zhang Meng, is this your new cow?"

When Zhang Meng saw the villagers making fun of her, she laughed and said, "I didn't buy this cow. It's not that Qing girl will come to pick up Brother Lin tomorrow. The family doesn't have any livestock. I want to add a cow to make the family more lively."

The joker takes a deep breath, my dad!This cow was actually bought by Fang Qing, how rich and vulgar is this guy, he has a horse at home, and now he has another cow, my dear, why didn't I meet such a good daughter-in-law.

Fang Qing didn't know what this person was thinking. If she knew, she would only say that the countryside is really poor. With just one horse and one cow, she could be said to be rich.

Fang Qing didn't care about the villagers who were inquiring behind, and the group returned to Fang Qing's house, where they were unloading the things in the carriage and ox cart.

"Girl Qing, why did you buy so many things?" Xia Ye asked dizzily as she looked at the pile of things.

"Buy, buy, buy more." Fang Qing said awkwardly.

Zhang Zelin went to the kitchen to cut watermelon, and when his father asked Fang Qing, he smiled and said, "I told her to buy less, but she just didn't listen."

Mrs. Zhang took the watermelon handed over by her grandson, took a bite and said, "You and Qing girl have few things in this family. You can use them when you buy them."

"That's right." Mr. Zhang said while eating watermelon, "However, Qing girl, in the future you and Lin Ge will live together, you can't spend money like today, you spent so much money on these pears and watermelons. "

"Grandpa, I just happened to see melon farmers selling there, so I bought two along the way."

"Hey! Brother Lin, don't eat the watermelon seeds. You spit out the seeds and keep them for me to plant. After they are planted, there will be watermelons to eat." Seeing the person who ate the seeds and the meat together, Fang Qing asked him to take the seeds Spit it out.

"Cough cough cough! Zhang Zelin's face flushed red at her words.

Mrs. Zhang heard Fang Qing say that watermelon seeds can grow watermelons, and asked her: "Girl Qing, what you said is true."

"Of course it's true. You spit out the seeds and wait for me to plant them. It's June now. If you plant the seeds, maybe in September or October, you can eat the watermelon I planted."

Zhang Meng listened to Fang Qing's words, carefully ate the pulp, spit out the seeds and piled them together, not only she carefully ate the watermelon and spit out the seeds, but everyone sitting here did the same.

After Fang Qing had finished eating the watermelon, he went to the kitchen and took out a large bowl, put the watermelon seeds into the bowl, and soaked the watermelon seeds in water.

Zhang Meng and the old lady watched Fang Qing's operation carefully, and when they saw Fang Qing soaked in water, they asked curiously, "Girl Qing, why did you soak the seeds in water?"

Fang Qing looked at everyone's curious eyes, and slowly explained to them: "Auntie, this is to soak the seeds. The seeds are soaked for three to four hours. Let's dig a piece of land and water them, and then sprinkle the seeds. When the seeds grow, you can eat them." Transplant, we transplant the watermelon to the ground again.

Mrs. Zhang listened to Fang Qing's words, thought for a while and said solemnly: You must not spread the matter of Qing girl planting watermelon seedlings. "

After his mother finished speaking, Zhang Meng quickly nodded in response. Watermelons are so expensive, if the young girl grows watermelon seedlings, it will be a way of making money, and she will only spread the word if she is stupid.

Seeing the old lady say this, Fang Qing expressed that she didn't understand why she was not allowed to speak out. Everyone understands the simple truth of cultivating melons, fruits and vegetables, okay?

Seeing the confused granddaughter-in-law, Mrs. Zhang smiled and said, "You girl, you think that everyone knows how to cultivate melon seedlings. This technology is in the hands of melon growers, and they won't say it easily."

Fang Qing thought to herself after listening to Mrs. Zhang, she was a little careless, she even forgot for a moment that this is the ancient times of the women, not her original world, it is not uncommon to plant seeds in her original world, here is a skill to support the family , it seems that you should be more careful in your behavior in the future, and don't show your vest.

"Grandma, I'll save it, I won't talk nonsense." Fang Qing decided not to speak out, she lived in peace and contentment, and as for the watermelon seeds, she didn't want to farm, so she could let Zhang Meng and the others plant them.

Mrs. Zhang was satisfied with Fang Qing's words. After resting enough, she got up to carry her load and yelled at her family to go back.

Fang Qing thought that she was going to dig the ground later, and there was no hoe at home, so she had to go to Zhang Zelin's house to borrow a hoe.

"Grandma, wait for me. I don't have a hoe here. I'll go to my father-in-law to get a hoe and come back to dig the ground."

"Okay, you take us back in a carriage." Mrs. Zhang thought that Fang Qing didn't have a hoe, so she waited for her to go with her.

Seeing that Fang Qing wanted to go with them, Zhang Zelin got up and took the cows to the cowshed. He saw that there was no grass in the cowshed, so he decided to wait and bring some fresh grass back to supplement the cowshed.

Fang Qing saw that several people ate watermelon and didn't eat much, so she went to the kitchen to see that there was still half of it. She thought she would keep this half for her to eat at night, so she turned and went to the living room, and dug out some of the things that had been brought in just now.

"Girl Qing, what are you doing with these?" Xia Ye asked looking at the person who brought the things out.

"Father-in-law, this cloth was originally bought to make clothes for Shi Shi and the others. Take the watermelon, pears and dried fruits for Shi Shi and the others to taste."

"Hey! You can't take this cloth, let Brother Lin make clothes for you." Xia Ye saw his daughter-in-law took out three bolts of cloth, and he hurriedly pushed the cloth back.

"No... this is what I calculated. This is what I bought for Shi Shi and the others."

"Second brother, take a piece of cloth."

"Girl Qing, your father-in-law is enough for one piece of cloth, and you take the rest away." Mrs. Zhang said as an elder.

"Grandma, I've already taken care of this. If I don't take it today, I'll send it over tomorrow." Fang Qing said without giving in.

Under Xia Ye and Fang Qing's perseverance, Xia Ye took two pieces of cloth, Fang Qing took a step back and kept one. When they arrived at Zhang Zelin's house, Fang Qing put the hoe in the carriage and walked home.
