Quick wear: She has turned over the big guys from all walks of life

Cheng Yuanxi, his father and his son, arrived and joined the procession of clearing up wasteland. There were many people, so they divided their time. By evening, they were almost done.

More than three-thirds of the land was used to remove weeds, turn over the soil and water it; the seedlings were placed in the open air, and they picked up the hoe and went home for dinner.

After dinner, Cheng Yuanxi said to his nephews: "Thank you for your hard work today. There are fruits in Yiyi's yard. Each of you can take some back to eat."

"Third uncle, are these fruits sent by the Crown Prince of Zhou?" Cheng Minglian couldn't help but move his throat, stuttering, and wanted to eat!

"Yes, it was sent by Prince Zhou."

"Let's go." Cheng Mingxin followed them to Canghaiyuan with great interest.

The things were left untouched in the yard. They put them how they put them when they came here.

"So many!" Cheng Mingzhi looked at the four baskets of fruits and was surprised, "This is too much."

Cheng Yuanxi said lightly, "It's all given to you, take it back and try it."

With a large population, there is no choice. Two baskets of fruits per room may seem like a lot, but in fact they are not much; walnuts account for most of the food, and other fruits can only be eaten by one person in a few mouthfuls.

Cheng Mingyi and others thanked him and left with their things.

The next day, Cheng Mingyi and others came to help water the ground again to make it moist enough.

"Dad, sprinkle some plant ash on it." The land was not fertile enough and some of the seedlings might not survive, so she had to take this step.

"to make."

Cheng Yuanxi immediately followed his family to pick up the plant ashes in the kitchen. If there was not enough, he would go to the clan family to get some. Of course, it was not for free. Anyone who agreed to let them take away the plant ashes would be given two eggs per family, which was regarded as a good relationship.

In the morning, we watered and sprinkled plant ash. In order to prevent the seedlings from dehydrating and dying, they were planted in the evening.

There is not enough plant ash, and a lot of the soil is only stained with a thin layer; plant ash can fertilize the ground, but if you sprinkle too much, it will burn the roots of the plants, especially the rare melon and fruit seedlings they are planting now, so you have to be careful.

"It's done!"

After planting the last plant, Mingyi clapped her hands and wiped off the dirt on her hands; she turned to look at her cousins ​​with a smile, "Thank you, cousins, for your help."

Without magic, it would take a long time to cultivate three-thirds of the land; let alone newly opened wasteland.

Cheng Mingyi chuckled, "Why are you so polite, little cousin? My cousin comes to water your land every morning, so you don't have to work so hard."

"Yes, little cousin, I will also come to help; one bucket of water is very heavy. If you use two buckets of water, I'm afraid you won't be able to grow taller." Cheng Minglian said happily.

Mingyi: Thank you very much. You are such a nice person.

If he hadn't smiled so stupidly, she would have believed him.

"Don't listen to your third cousin's nonsense. How can you carry water with so many brothers?" Cheng Mingzhi knelt down and looked level with his little cousin.

Such an action is a symbol of equality for children and can also make children less wary of people squatting down.

Don't worry about children being unwary, but they can't notice it; but when an action shows equal attention, even children will get closer to you.

"That's right, third cousin is talking nonsense, I have picked up so much water and I haven't grown taller yet." Cheng Mingxin agreed.

Mingyi sighed silently, what could she say; several cousins ​​really regarded her as a child.

"Then Yiyi would like to thank my cousins ​​first."

"You should, you're welcome." Cheng Mingxin narrowed his eyes with a smile, squatted next to his brother and looked at Mingyi, "Little cousin, if it's grown, do you want us to have a taste?"

Mingyi raised her eyelids and looked at them. She saw that they were all smiling, waiting for her answer, and then said.

"We can eat as much of our own food as we want." "That's what I've been waiting for. Don't worry, we'll take care of the weeding, plowing, and watering of this area from now on." Cheng Minglian patted his chest happily.

Although it may seem like a small matter, in the era of weeding without pesticides, you had to pull weeds inch by inch; you also had to use a hoe to plow the ground bit by bit. When there were crops, plowing the ground was even more difficult.

An accidental hoe can damage the roots of crops, so plowing the ground is not an easy task.

Watering was okay. There was a well in the courtyard of their large kitchen, so fetching water was the easiest job.

After the seedlings were planted, Mingyi came over from time to time to check on the growth. She was busy observing the seedlings, and Zhou Ting was not idle in Fucheng.

Seeing that the cold winter is coming, the military training in the military camp cannot stop. The more severe the cold, the more guarded against foreign attacks on the northwest.

Princess Zhou was in charge of the affairs of the mansion, and Zhou Ting paid attention to the external situation. After his body recovered, he also participated in daily exercises in order to improve his martial arts as soon as possible. After taking the Zhuguo given by Mingyi, his internal strength was now considered Deep inner strength.

What he needs is practical training and experience on the battlefield.

Fortunately, he gathered several generals from the Northwest Army and was able to learn from them.

During the first winter snowfall, Mingyi suddenly realized that the northwest was different from the previous place. She couldn't use her spiritual power, so she put down her calculation ability and lived as an ordinary mortal.

Unexpectedly, the first winter snow came and I was caught off guard.

When I woke up, it was snowy outside.

"It's over, it's over!"

Mingyi hurriedly ran to the ground in the backyard of the yard. When she saw the seedlings covered by the winter snow, her heart dropped.

When Cheng Mingyi and others came to their senses and came to check, they felt equally chilled.

"It's over, the result of a month of hard work." Cheng Minglian regretted, "Why did it start snowing so early in the northwest? There is still one month until the New Year."

Cheng Mingyi also regretted, "Okay, don't think about this now, Mingyi, do you have any remedy?"

remedy?

Mingyi realized that her first thought was the greenhouse.

However, there is no plastic sheeting in this world, so there is no way to build a greenhouse.

Oil paper is okay, but oil paper is opaque and very stuffy.

It is now impossible to move the seedlings into the house.

"I'm going to find dad and grandpa."

After Mingyi finished speaking, she turned around and ran back, straight to the yard where her parents lived, "Mom and Dad, are you up?"

"I got up early." Chen Daya came from the house, looked at her anxious look, and asked, "Why are you worried? It's so early in the morning."

"Mom, my seedlings are covered with snow."

"If the snow covers it, just cover it. Just dig out the seedlings from the snow and cover them with branches and weeds to keep them warm."

This was how things were done in the village in the past. During those days when it was too cold, everything grown in the ground relied on weeds to keep them warm; with luck, those who could withstand the cold would survive.

"Mom is right, I'll go right away." Mingyi hurriedly ran back and saw several cousins ​​already pulling the snow covering the seedlings.

A small half of the seedlings had their heads exposed, and it looked like they had not been frozen to death or cooked.
