Chapter 6 Orchard

Pushing open the door, there is a small valley adjacent to the backyard, two figures, one big and one small, are busy in it, and a yellow-gray earth dog is jumping around beside them.

This small valley belongs to his family, and his own contribution is in it, Zhang Taiping thought to himself for a while.

The village committee distributed the soil slopes around the village and the low hilltops to each household.These lands have little land but many rocks, or because the slopes are too steep to grow crops or cultivate normally, they are divided among each household for planting some fruit trees.

When the village was first divided, there were only about a hundred households in the village, and a fart at the head of the village could be heard at the end of the village. Everyone knew Zhang Taiping's character, and all the work in the fields was done by his dumb wife, without much labor.

Pity her, and directly divide the valley behind the house to her.After planting fruit trees, it is convenient for management and labor.While others are drawn by lot, where they are caught is there.

The fruit tree saplings are distributed free of charge by the government. After they are planted in the ground, each tree can receive a subsidy of two yuan from the state every year.

In fact, in the opinion of most villagers, fruit trees do not make much money.

Not to mention the natural factors, the initial investment is high, the growth cycle is long, and people need to be busy for a long time.Besides, even if the weather is good, there are no pests and diseases, and good fruits are produced, I don't know who to buy it for.

Might as well go out to work, stable.If you don't gamble or do nonsense, you can save more than 1 yuan in a year, except for food and lodging.

Most people grow all walnut or chestnut trees.Planting on slopes and hills is just to respond to the call of the country and get a subsidy of 2000 yuan per year.

And his wife, Yazhi, listened to the advice of her younger sister who went to college, so she belongs to that minority.Counting on the fruit tree to make money, I put a lot of energy and expectations into it.

Zhang Taiping entered the small valley along the path.

The bottom of the valley is a flat land, the area is not small, about five or six mu.

Dwarf vines are planted in an area of ​​about two or three acres with better soil quality.Judging by the growth of the tree, it is two years old.The branches are too lush, and the branches are carefully tied to the bamboo poles tied next to them.It can also be seen that the management staff lacked skills and did not prune the redundant branches, which made the nutrition of the tree too scattered and wasted.

Cherry trees are planted on both sides near the slope, and the total area is more than two acres.

On the low slopes on both sides, where the soil is still rich, peach trees are planted, and I vaguely remember that they are still peaches.

Above, sandy land, only some walnut trees can be planted.

Wife is holding?Digging the sweet potatoes interplanted in Taoshu Lane, Yaya sat beside her and stroked the mud from the sweet potatoes with her small hands.

Seeing Zhang Taiping approaching, the local dog Ah Huang immediately tucked his tail, made a big circle, and ran back to the house from the path Zhang Taiping came from.

In the past, every time Zhang Taiping came home, Ah Huang would wag his tail to welcome him, but Zhang Taiping, who lost money, was full of anger and kicked Ah Huang directly.Over time, Ah Huang ran away with his tail between his legs as soon as he saw him.Quite the meaning of the enemy's advance and our retreat.

Zhang Taiping stretched out his hand to touch the little girl's head, but saw the little girl shrinking her neck, with a dense layer of sweat on her forehead.

Zhang Taiping's hand in the air could not be dropped, as if he had committed a heinous crime.There was pity and pain in my heart.

The wife turned around and saw Zhang Taiping, she couldn't hide the surprise in her eyes.

According to Zhang Taiping in the past, he never went to the ground, just dictating at home like a master.

The sun came out from the west today, how could it not surprise my wife.

Zhang Taiping opened his mouth, wanting to call Yazhi, but when he closed his mouth, he said: "Mute, give me your head."

Because Zhang Taiping used to call his wife that way.

The wife was taken aback for a moment, and then quickly gestured with her hands.

This time Zhang Taiping understood it, it meant that he bled a lot the night before, and his grandfather said that his body was weak and he needed to rest well.

This made Zhang Taiping, who was used to seeing the warmth and coldness of people in his previous life, feel warm and ashamed at the same time. Such an old man still needs a woman to support him.

snatch it?Head, just dig it when you are bored.Zhang Taiping, whether in the past or in this life, has never been in the field, let alone digging sweet potatoes.

one?He lowered his head and dug into a big sweet potato with a click.After digging hard, half of the sweet potato the size of an adult's fist was lifted out, and the other half was embedded in the soil, secreting milky white juice.

Seeing that everything his wife had dug was intact, Zhang Taiping was embarrassed for a while, and buried his head in digging hard.

The wife had to cut off the vine with a sickle to reveal the rhizome.Then I sat with Yaya and stroked the mud.

The little girl was obviously absent-minded, she glanced at the reckless Zhang Taiping from time to time.

Men are always more laborious than women, and they dug up a lot in a short while.After his wife tugged at the corner of the clothes, he stopped with a lot of meaning.

The wife hurriedly sent the handkerchief she carried with her.

He took the handkerchief embroidered with unknown flowers.Under the sunlight at nine o'clock, looking at his wife who was carelessly brushing her temples with her hands, although she was not magnificent, she also had a charm that others could not understand.

There was a throbbing in his heart.

After filling the sweet potatoes, a snakeskin bag is full, enough to eat for a while.

The wife took out another rope and tied up the cut vines.Take it back and feed it to chickens or sheep, or dry it for firewood.

Under Zhang Taiping's puzzled eyes, his wife quickly climbed to the top of the slope and pulled down the sheep tied to the old locust tree on the top of the slope.

It was a ewe, and it was still pregnant.

Goat milk is squeezed once a day, about three to four catties.

Zhang Taiping used to not drink goat milk.One is that there is a faint smell of mutton, and the other is that the drink is too hot and the nose bleeds.

Goat's milk is different from cow's milk.Milk is cold in nature and mild in nature. After drinking it, the reaction to the body is not obvious, so it is suitable for long-term drinking.But goat milk is positive, too hot, and has the effect of aphrodisiac, which is really unbearable for ordinary people.Not suitable for young and strong men to drink.

But goat's milk is far more nutritious than cow's milk.Cows are picky about grass and like to eat one type of grass, especially now that cows are raised on special feed, the quality of milk produced is even worse.But sheep are not picky about grass, eat a variety of herbs, and the milk they produce is relatively complete and balanced in nutrition.

Three or four catties of milk, save half a catty for Yaya to drink, and order all the rest.Two yuan per catty can earn seven or eight yuan a day.

The sheep automatically walk back along the path after going downhill, the wife uses it?Holding the sweet potato vines on his head and leading Yaya to follow, Zhang Taiping walked at the end with a snakeskin bag weighing six to seventy catties on his shoulder with one hand.

When passing by the vines, Zhang Taiping asked, "Why don't you prune the branches?"

In his wife's surprised and puzzled expression, Zhang Taiping patted his forehead and explained, "Fruit trees need to be pruned regularly, and too many branches will disperse nutrients. And many of them are twigs, which do not bear fruit. These need to be pruned. Cut it off to make the main branch grow thicker. Especially for this kind of dwarf vine, it is enough to keep two main trunks, and two more branches on each trunk, and three divisions are enough."

"Understand?"

The wife shook her head sheepishly.

Playing the piano to a cow, Zhang Taiping thought to himself, it's really brave enough to count on these things to make money without knowing anything, and it will be good if they can bear fruit.

"Well, it's all right. I'll do the pruning then. And those cherry and peach trees too."

Speechless all the way.

When they got home, the wife tied up the sheep, and the family came to the front room.

Zhang Taiping, who had already had breakfast, felt idle and walked around the house, not knowing where Yaya was hiding, only his wife was busy back and forth.

Zhang Taiping, who was looking for something to do, suddenly thought of something, took off the clock hanging on the bedroom wall and ran to the backyard.

He wants to experiment whether the mysterious space is as magical as it is written in the novel.

From the backyard, I dug a few radish and cabbage seedlings that had just grown, got into the north room of the back room, and closed the door.

With a thought, the jade pendant came out from between her eyebrows and floated in front of her eyes.

Zhang Taiping put the clock on the table, waited until 35:[-], held the vegetable seedlings in his left hand, grabbed the jade pendant with his right hand, and disappeared into the room with a whoosh.

After entering the space, I was still shocked.

I dug a hole in the red-black slightly moist soil by hand, put the vegetable seedlings in it, and covered it with soil.

Standing by the side, staring at the vegetable seedlings with blinking eyes. 10 minutes passed, and my eyes were about to burst into tears, but the vegetable seedlings remained unchanged.Well, some of them are more energetic than when they first came in.

I can't see why.

Zhang Taiping went to the pool and scooped up the spring water with both hands, quickly carried it to the vegetable seedlings, and poured it carefully on the roots.

A miraculous scene happened.

The vegetable seedlings are rising at a speed visible to the naked eye, as if they have been injected with hormones.It didn't slow down until it grew to a height of [-] centimeters.

But Zhang Taiping ran to the spring, scooped up the water as if he had been splashed with chicken blood, ran back like the wind, poured it on the roots again, and squatted beside him looking expectantly.

The cabbages and radishes that had slowed down just now began to grow wildly again, and the chirping sound of the cabbage leaves rubbing against each other could be heard.

After the growth stopped this time, the cabbage lump was as big as a basketball, green and green, as if carved from jade.

Zhang Taiping directly pulled out a radish, it was about a foot long, thick as someone's calf, and the skin was white and green.

Peel off the skin, take a bite, crisp and refreshing, without a little bit of the original spicy taste.

While enjoying the appetizing radish, use the radish skin to scoop some spring water and pour it on the ripe cabbage root.The tender and pleasing cabbage is aging and withering faster than it grows.

The withered leaves fell to the ground, and a blue light flashed on the ground, and the withered and yellow leaves were decomposed into gray soil.

Zhang Taiping stopped to think for a while and then summed up some basic functions of the space.

First of all, you can put yourself and vegetables in the space, which means that the space can hold both plants and animals, and it is a powerful storage space.

Secondly, the space spring water can stimulate and optimize plants.Judging from the last time I drank water, it has no effect on the birth of animals, but it can improve the physique of animals, which can be regarded as optimization.

Thirdly, the spatial land has the function of automatically dividing the dead branches and leaves.

As for whether there is an advantage in time, you have to read it to know.

Thinking of this, with a thought, he appeared in the house.

Looking at the "famous brand" watch on his wrist, the hour hand just turned one frame.He looked at the clock on the table again, it was nine thirty-seven.

Zhang Taiping's eyebrows twitched for 2 minutes.That is to say, the time inside has passed one hour, and the outside world has only 2 minutes.Time passes thirty times faster inside than outside.

Thirty times the difference, Zhang Taiping wanted to calm down, but his mouth opened uncontrollably.

Simply let go of your temper and burst out laughing, "Haha. Hahaha"

I couldn't help but think with great pride, "The countryside, what's wrong with the countryside? You can also get rich in the countryside, and it's possible to drive the whole village to become rich."
