Traveling to the ages, eat and drink enough in the text

Chapter 78

As far as the people in the village say that they don't think it's a big deal when they watch the excitement, they will definitely not let him go if they catch him, and they will definitely ask all kinds of questions.Just in time to go into the mountains to clean up the land, Ding Yu plans to use all the empty places in the valley this year.

Only when I feed myself do I realize that nothing can be accomplished by just opening my mouth.Last year they only fed 22 chickens, but Ding Yu used a back basket to send food for the chickens, bran, and food for Fang's to the mountains. It feels like she never stopped, if it wasn't for her There is space, if she really let her carry it in from outside the mountain, she will definitely be so small that she will not grow any longer.

No matter if she digs a trap to catch it or how to catch it, there is not much money left.This year we can't buy all of them from outside, or we have to grow most of them ourselves, otherwise we feel that we can't make ends meet.

Based on various reasons, they must plant in the mountains this year, and they will also plant on a large scale.

There are vegetable fields beside several houses, and they plan to use these small fish as vegetables.Last year's dried vegetables were all bought from small fish, although they were enough to eat, but why spend money when you can grow them yourself.The rest of the land has to be reserved for raising chickens, rabbits and pigs, and there are not many that can be planted.

The place near the river beach is full of small stones, the soil layer is too thin, and the entire small valley is only this big. If you draw a range, only seven or eight mu of land is suitable for planting.

"It's too little! It's enough for the human race alone, and it's definitely not enough to feed these things."

Fang's land has been planted for more than a year, and she directly predicts based on the harvest.

Ding Yu is a child who lived in the city in her previous life. She thought it was enough to plant in this small valley!But after Fang told his uncle one after another that it was definitely not enough, he realized that he had taken it for granted.

"Then here is enough for us to eat, and I will find a place to grow the rest."

She thought of the valley she had found before, it was not bad over there, there was land and water, as long as the entrance was blocked.

As soon as Ding Yu talked about his uncle, he wanted to go and have a look.My uncle, who is so important about farming, is extremely persistent, and he can't believe his eldest niece's judgment. Regarding farming, his eldest niece definitely doesn't understand it as well as he, who has been dealing with land since childhood.

So, Ding Yu led his uncle and Chen Canzhong to turn over there, where Erni and Fang first picked up the stones on the ground to be reclaimed, and pulled out the big saplings and weeds growing in the ground.

There is a big bend from this side to the valley over there, and it is closer to home here.However, this is not the most important
"I've been here before." The kid Chen Shenzhong looked at the gourd-shaped canyon, frowned and objected, "This is not okay. In summer, there are a large group of wild boars who like to come here to play in the water. Don’t go. Moreover, not only wild boars, but also a leopard is watching these wild boars nearby, hunting for prey when it sees the opportunity, and I only see it twice.”

There is such a good terrain here, with mountains and rivers, and fertile land. Chen Canzhong and his mother couldn't eat enough, so of course they had the idea of ​​farming here secretly.But after observing it a few times, he knew it wouldn't work.

It is unwise to compete with wild animals for territory in the mountains.

Hearing what Chen Shenzhong said, my uncle immediately denied it.Although this place is close to home, he can come here more often, but since it's so dangerous, he doesn't want it.

Since this place didn't work, they went back and discussed where else would be suitable.The most annoying thing is the wild boars and wild rabbits in the mountains. After planting, they are useless to these two kinds no matter whether they grow on the ground or underground.The sweet potatoes you plant in the ground can be dug up and ruined for you, so choose a site carefully.

He had to go through the hot springs when he came back, and Ding Yu immediately turned his gaze to this side.

"Take you to a good place."

Ding Yu beckoned, then turned around and brought the two of them to the mountain pass on the hot spring side.

Before seeing Duo, Chen Shenzhong wrinkled his little nose nearby, smelled the air, and shifted his suspicious eyes to Ding Yu, "Sulphur?"

"It's really clever, it's sulfur, and there are hot springs."

Following Dingyu, Chen Canzhong soon saw the flowing hot spring and smelled a stronger smell of sulfur.

"How? Don't worry about wild boars here!"

Ding Yu swears by it.

Who would have thought that Chen Shenzhong shook his head lightly, "No wonder I found that the mountains around here are bare when I walked here several times. It turned out to be because of this. Sulfur is a pungent smell. I haven't tried it, but I have seen some. Fang Zi, I feel that although the smell of sulfur will not make wild boars like it, it will not be too irritating to it. The reason why there is no possibility here is that it will not come here if there is no food. Once it grows what it likes to eat, it may prevent it Can't live."

Compared with my uncle, who has cultivated land, and Chen Shenzhong, a Ding Yu who has theory and practice, he finds himself a little bit drifting.She took everything for granted, but she just read some specious novels in her previous life and thought it would work, it was very simple.But the real life is to go step by step down-to-earth, and to really practice.

Just like she wants to raise chickens, she thinks she can raise them in a place, but the chickens will get sick, they will not adapt to the environment, and they will die if they don't pay attention, they are very fragile.

And then she has to clean and feed the chicken coop every day. If it weren't for Mrs. Fang being here, she would only run once a few days to raise a few chickens for her family's teething festival.

The most important thing is to prepare food for the chicken.

Free-range chickens can be fed with less staple food because they can catch food on their own.But Dingyu wants to feed broiler chickens, which is not only labor-intensive, but also food-intensive.Therefore, during the winter, she hardly had any idle time to carry chicken food to the mountains.

Nowadays, farming is even more difficult. She thought that she could find a place that seemed safe to plant, but there were also various aspects to consider.

"Don't worry, let's clean up the land in the valley recently. I'm going around to see if I can find a suitable and safe place to plant."

At this time, it is the young Chen Canzhong who is more reliable.

Because there was only one hoe, it took five or six days to clear the land in the valley.And after she had really tidied up the land, Ding Yu's floating mind fell to the ground again, because she was so tired from planting the land in fantasy and actually farming it!
She is not a child who grew up in the city where the grains are not clear, and the leeks and wheat seedlings are not separated. She knows that the farmer uncle is the hardest.But she didn't have a specific concept of this hardship. Did she ever think that it could be harder than her struggling to survive in the last days?
In her imagination, farming would be tiring, but after practice, she realized that farming was more than [-] times more tiring than she imagined, and it was different from her searching for living supplies.

Just bending down to pick up small stones in the ground and throwing them together, and then carrying them to the stream in a basket made by my uncle, she was so tired that she couldn't straighten up after a whole day.
