Chapter 863 Things About Uncle’s House (13)

The next day

Almost all the guests from afar have left.

Only my uncle and my cousin are left, and they probably will stay here for a few more days.

At night, her mother, Wang Guilan, quietly called Zhang Feng out of the courtyard, and said to Zhang Feng, "Xiaofeng, I see what your uncle means. He seems to want to grow our Moon Lake vegetables. What do you think we should do?"

"What? Plant Moon Lake vegetables?" Zhang Feng was also a little surprised, then shook his head and said, "They live so far away, how are we going to harvest the vegetables we planted? Do we have him deliver them every morning? That's impossible!"

"Then what should we do? Xiaofeng, no matter what you say, he is your uncle, so you should find a way to help their family." Wang Guilan looked at her son and said seriously.

In the countryside, if your family is well-off, regardless of your former relatives, you will be gossiped by the seven aunts and eight aunts. Although everyone doesn't care, they are both Wang Guilan's younger brother and Zhang Feng's uncle. help.

"Okay, I see, Mom, do you think this is okay? I think their family wants to grow vegetables just to increase their income and make some money. I will think about it later and see if there is anything suitable for their family to grow. !"

Zhang Feng thought for a while and said with a smile, he didn't want to embarrass his mother, and helping outsiders is helping, shouldn't it be more appropriate to help his own uncle?Although the two don't communicate much.

"Hehe, that's good. In fact, your uncle was very good before he got married. He often came to our house and helped us with work, but since he got married, alas, let's not talk about it, your aunt is like that..." Speaking of Zhang Feng's aunt, mother Wang Guilan couldn't help shaking her head.

Zhang Feng's aunt is so stingy that her five relatives don't recognize her. To the extent that she is stingy, even if Zhang Feng and the others go to grandma's house, they will be driven home if they play for two more days. In her opinion, Zhang Feng These people only eat and don't work, and don't drive them away. What are they doing at home?

That's right, Zhang Feng was kicked out once, but since that time, Zhang Feng has never been to his uncle's house again. As for his grandparents, they have both passed away long ago, and Zhang Feng has never seen him.

"Mom, I remember that my uncle's house is very suitable for planting chestnuts, right?" Zhang Feng thought for a while and then asked.

"Yeah, now your uncle's family is still planting some, and every year we can have a harvest of thousands of catties! Didn't he also bring dozens of catties to our family yesterday?" Wang Guilan said with a smile.

"Then let them continue to plant chestnuts. I will ask them to change to better varieties. I hope they will be satisfied!"

However, Zhang Feng was still a little worried that his uncle would not accept it, especially his mean aunt, because chestnuts would not bear fruit in the first year. Even if the variety is good and the management is good, it will take two or three years to produce fruit. income.

Hearing Zhang Feng's worry, Wang Guilan frowned: "Then what should I do? How about planting something in the orchard?"

"Interplanting? Interplanting?" Suddenly Zhang Feng's eyes lit up, because Moon Lake was on CCTV's "Getting Rich" not long ago, so Zhang Feng also watched a few episodes, and remembered that there was an interplanting of pumpkins in the orchard. , You can harvest six to seven thousand catties per acre, and that is still an ordinary pumpkin. If it is a good pumpkin variety, you can sell it for one yuan per catty without any problem!

good!Just do it!

Zhang Feng smiled and waved his hands, thinking that the idea of ​​interplanting pumpkins in the chestnut garden is very good, so that he can increase his income by six, seven, or even tens of thousands of yuan without having an acre of land. I believe my uncle will be very satisfied.

"Mom, what do you think of my thoughts?" Zhang Feng told his mother all his thoughts, and then asked her mother's opinion.

"Hehe, yes, as long as the variety of pumpkins is good, your uncle will definitely be willing. Now their family's income from farming is not high, only more than 1 a year!" Wang Guilan nodded with satisfaction, thinking that her son's method is good.

"That's fine, I'll talk to my uncle later!" Hearing what his mother said, Zhang Feng finally let go of his heart. After all, the other party is still his uncle, a relative who grew up with his mother, so he can help him, Zhang Feng I also feel at ease.

Back to the hall.

Zhang Feng, along with his cousin and uncle, came to the study at the back.

"Uncle, Brother Qiang, sit down!"

"Hey, Xiaofeng!" Uncle sat down a little uneasy. After all, Zhang Feng's family was in such a difficult situation a few years ago, and he couldn't help, saying that it was a little hard to tell about this time.

"Uncle, I heard from my mother that you still have a lot of chestnuts?" Zhang Feng asked with a smile,

"Actually, it's not much. It's just one or two acres of land. It can be sold for 5000 yuan a year!" Uncle said a little embarrassed.

"Brother Qiang, why didn't you go to work this year?" Zhang Feng turned his head and asked curiously to his cousin next to him.

"Hey..." Brother Qiang scratched his head in embarrassment.

At this moment, the uncle glared at his son, and said with a smile: "The family has found a partner for your cousin, and they are going to get married in the first month, so they didn't go out to work!"

"Oh, this is a good thing. Congratulations to Brother Qiang..." Zhang Feng has a good impression of Brother Qiang. He is a bit honest, simple and honest, without any flamboyance.

"Hey, thank you, I invite you to have a drink then!" Brother Qiang said cheerfully to Zhang Feng.

"Of course we will go. You will notify us in advance when the time comes." Zhang Feng smiled and immediately agreed.

Afterwards, everyone chatted for a while, and then the topic started.

"Uncle, I heard that you are not allowed to join the Moon Lake Cooperative?"

"This... this, Xiaofeng, do you think it's okay?" Uncle asked Zhang Feng hesitantly.

"Of course you can, but you definitely can't grow vegetables, unless you grow other things." Zhang Feng smiled.

"Then what do we want to plant?" Uncle asked in surprise, unexpectedly Zhang Feng agreed so readily, and at the same time felt very guilty for not being able to help his sister's family all these years.

"Uncle, what do you think is suitable for planting?" Zhang Feng asked his uncle and cousin with a smile, wanting to understand their thoughts first, after all, twisted melons are not sweet, and it would be even better if they had better suggestions.

"This...Xiaofeng, we don't have any ideas for the time being, why don't you talk about it?" Before coming, my uncle and cousin had actually discussed to grow Moon Lake vegetables like everyone else, but Zhang Feng had denied it just now. , I lost my mind for a while.

Later, Zhang Feng revealed his plan to plant chestnuts and interplant pumpkins in the chestnut garden.

When the two learned that planting an acre of pumpkins can yield tens of thousands of catties of harvest, and that the cooperative bought them at a high price of one yuan per catty, they were both overjoyed. They looked at Zhang Feng with an extremely eager expression, and at the same time felt very happy. gratitude.

You know, although their family is in a remote mountain village in the next county, there are indeed a lot of fields there. Their family alone has 30 to [-] acres. If they all planted chestnuts and pumpkins, they could have at least [-] to [-] acres a year. income.
