The Pretty Eldest Daughter of a Scholar's Family

Chapter 116

Ning Zhongping understood what Su Yunduo meant. She didn't want to disclose the secrets of the mountain col so quickly, so the job of transforming the col was expected to be completed by her own family.

How big is the col, and how much work is needed to transform the col, Ning Zhongping silently calculated in his heart, if according to Su Yunduo's plan, the few of them work hard and hurry up, and they can finish it by the end of the month, but the timing waits for no one The sooner it is done the better.

"You perfect the plan again, and I will arrange the labor. Brother-in-law, you just take care of your business, and Duo Duo is responsible for boiling water and cooking." Ning Zhongping didn't say who he brought to help Su Yunduo transform the col, and directly took over the entire renovation project .

Although Su Yunduo didn't know who Ning Zhongping would bring to help her complete the renovation project, she believed that Ning Zhongping would definitely understand her plan, so she didn't say any more about it.

Su Yunduo returned to her room and started to get busy. According to Ning Zhongping's request, she carefully planned the reconstruction of the col. She also drew several diagrams of the direction of the ditch, and explained the fence in detail. Until After making sure that there would be no delay even if she wasn't there, she turned off the lights and went to sleep.

According to the contract with Zuixianlou, tomorrow morning he has to go to the mountain to collect the vegetables, this is the first time to deliver vegetables, Su Yunduo hopes to do as perfect as possible, so naturally he has to get up early in the morning to collect the vegetables.

That night, Su Yunduo only slept for two hours before waking up at the sound of a rooster crowing. He got up and put on a thick padded jacket. When he came out, he saw that Ning Zhongping had prepared four bamboo baskets for harvesting vegetables on the mountain. Su Zexuan, who was in the same room with him, was also busy in the kitchen.

When Su Yunduo entered the kitchen, Su Zexuan had already boiled hot water, seeing Su Yunduo coming in, quickly poured hot water into the basin for her.

While washing his face, Su Yunduo told Su Zexuan to cook the family's porridge.

Although Su Zexuan wholeheartedly wanted to go to the mountain depression to collect vegetables, Su Yunduo was reluctant to follow Su Zexuan to suffer from the cold. Although the temperature in the mountain depression was not cold, it was naturally colder than the kitchen.

It just so happened that the family also needed someone to cook the porridge, so I entrusted this task to Su Zexuan, and Su Yunduo and Ning Zhongping went to the col with a backpack and a lamp. It was still dark!
There are not many vegetables to be delivered on the first day, Su Yunduo has already thought about the vegetables to be delivered today, a basket of leeks, a basket of green vegetable seedlings, a basket of celery, and a basket of pea tips.

The pea tip is actually the tenderest point on the pea vine, this job is relatively delicate and relatively time-consuming, Su Yunduo decided to wait until the sky is brighter before doing this job.

Considering that Ning Zhongping seldom went to the fields to do farm work, Su Yunduo gave him the job of pulling the celery, which was easier to do, and she herself took a sickle and started cutting the leeks.

Su Yunduo planted about one sub-field of leeks in the mountain depression. According to the contract signed by Su Yunduo and Zuixianlou, when the leeks cut today grow out, the first crop will be harvested and the second crop will be harvested.

If Zuixianlou doesn't ask for an increase, Su Yunduo will only slightly increase the planting area of ​​leeks in order to meet the needs of his family.

Su Yunduo and Ning Zhongping were working in full swing, when they suddenly heard the sound of rustling footsteps from the other side of the hill, Su Yunduo couldn't help being startled, straightened up and looked around where the sound came from, but it was Su Chengzhi who came, Can't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

"Father, why are you here?" Su Yunduo came to Su Chengzhi's side in three steps at a time, and stretched out his hand to shake his palm, feeling relieved that it was warm.

"Why don't you call me, how tired can you be from cooking vegetables, I have never done any work in the field!" Su Chengzhi gave Su Yunduo a look, rolled up his sleeves and was about to go down to collect vegetables.

At this time, the leeks were almost cut, Su Yunduo thought about it, and gave Su Chengzhi the words of sorting the leeks, and she took a back basket and went to the other side to start the green vegetable seedlings.

The green vegetable seedlings in the field grow crowded together. If some are not removed as soon as possible, not only will they not be able to grow, but the green vegetable seedlings that are crowded together will die due to rotten roots.

At this time, Ning Zhongping had already completed the task that Su Yunduo had given him. Looking back at the celery on the ground behind him, he was at a loss, looked at Su Yunduo from a distance and asked, "Duoduo, the celery on my side should be almost enough. What should I do next?"

Su Yunduo resisted the urge to caress his forehead, so he had no choice but to put the vegetable seedlings aside first, came to Ning Zhongping, squatted on the ground, picked up a handful of messy celery, sorted it out and picked off the slightly yellowed leaves. In the meantime, the celery has a new look under Su Yunduo's skillful hands, and it looks extraordinarily fresh and juicy.

"It's that simple?" Ning Zhongping raised his eyebrows in surprise, he really didn't expect Su Yunduo, a messy celery in his eyes, to change completely in just two strokes.

Su Yunduo didn't say any more, just pointed to the celery in the field with a smile, turned around and went to work on his own, there were still two dishes left, and they were all more delicate tasks.

Fortunately, the original owner of this body has been working in the fields since he was five or six years old, and Yunduo in his previous life also grew up in the countryside, so the work of picking and harvesting vegetables is not difficult for Su Yunduo, and she soon recovered. The green vegetable stalks just came out of a basket of chicken feathers and vegetable stalks that Zuixianlou needed.

Straightening up, he lightly patted his sore waist, Su Yunduo glanced at Su Chengzhi and Ning Zhongping, who were not far away, who were busy working, and saw that they were doing a good job, so he couldn't help smiling.

At this time, the sky was gradually brightening, Su Yunduo extinguished the lantern, and quickly picked up the last basket and walked to the edge of the vegetable planting. In these edge areas, Su Yunduo sprinkled some peas. The emergence rate is not high, but some The pea vines in the local area are growing quite well, especially near the main spring, and the growth is quite gratifying.

Su Yunduo's eyes were sharp and his hands were quick, and he quickly picked a basket full of them. At this time, Su Chengzhi and Ning Zhongping finally sorted out the dishes in front of them.

"Will Duoduo be frozen if she carries her back down the mountain like this?" Su Chengzhi looked at the four baskets full of juicy vegetables and said worriedly.

Su Yunduo smiled, and pointed to the small quilts piled aside made from old cotton.

It was Su Yunduo who asked Ning Zhongping to bring it here specially from Heishui Town. It didn't need to be so troublesome at first, but it's a pity that when they were separated from the old Su's house, they didn't even have a quilt or even a ragged jacket.

Su Chengzhi couldn't help but glanced at Su Yunduo, the child was becoming more and more thoughtful.

It took only an hour for the three of them to go down the mountain with the vegetables on their backs, and it was already the third quarter of Mao o'clock. In the past, this hour should have been the time for Su Chengzhi and Su Zexuan to play Wu Qin Xi.

Although Su Chengzhi had been working for almost half an hour today, Su Yunduo still asked Su Zexuan and Su Chengzhi to play Wu Qinxi together. Persistence would be effective, and all previous efforts should not be wasted just because of making money.

Su Chengzhi naturally understood this truth, and also understood Su Yunduo's painstaking efforts, so he naturally led Su Zexuan to play Wu Qin Xi without saying a word.
