Return to the small mountain village in 1986

Chapter 129 Bought Back the Cattle and Sheep

Gao Mingcheng never expected that when he came, it was easy, but when he went back, he couldn't go back!

On the road, many beautiful people are riding bicycles, and the iron baskets in front and the back seats are full of things.

What about Gao Mingcheng?

Gao Mingcheng is leading a calf and two sheep behind him!

It was also good luck, he hadn't found a suitable calf before, but he happened to find it at the county fair today, and if he wanted to buy a big one, he had to come to the county to buy it!
It was a rare encounter, the calf was healthy and the price was right, so Gao Mingcheng bought it without saying anything, not only that, he also bought two sheep.

Sheep also eat grass, so they can be taken out to graze together with the cows, which shouldn't be too tiring.When there is less forage in winter, the sheep can be slaughtered and eaten during the New Year!
Duomei rode on the bicycle, but frequently looked at Gao Mingcheng behind him, hesitated for a moment, and then said, "Do you want me to take it?"

Gao Mingcheng waved his hand directly and said, "No, I'll do it!"

According to Gao Mingcheng's own pace, it's nothing to walk this way, but the calf and the sheep walk slowly!
"How beautiful, you ride faster, you can go home first."

Gao Mingcheng asked Duomi to go home first, but Duomi refused. She wanted to go back with Gao Mingcheng.

So Gao Mingcheng didn't persuade them much, and the two of them slowly returned to Gaojia Village all the way. Due to the delay on the road, it was already past three o'clock in the afternoon when they arrived at Gaojia Village.

Fortunately, I had lunch in the county seat before, so I'm not too hungry right now.

When Gao Mingcheng led the cattle and sheep into the village, the villagers gathered around after seeing this scene.

Those who raised cattle took the initiative to look at the calf, first at the head, at the feet, then at the teeth, then nodded and said, "Ming Cheng, your cow is a good one, how much did you pay for it?"

There are also people who are more interested in the sheep bought by Gao Mingcheng. You must know that few people raise sheep in their village.

You see, pigs can be sold for meat, pig manure can be used to fertilize fields, cattle can be plowed, and rice can be pulled by carts, but what about sheep?Sheep can't work, are light in size, and don't produce much meat, so it's not cost-effective to raise them.

Gao Mingcheng smiled and talked to people, and said everything he could say.

Living in the village is like this. You have to communicate with people and exchange some latest news, and you will also have conflicts with people because of some conflicts of interest.

After talking with people for a while, Gao Mingcheng took the cattle and sheep back to his home, and did not directly lock the cattle and sheep in the house, but led the cattle and sheep to the nearby hillside.

The world is full of flowers in April, when all kinds of plants are thriving, and the weeds in the field are as high as a child's feet.

"Wow!" The black tiger jumped out from nowhere with the elf, and shouted around Gao Mingcheng. The black tiger even put his upper limbs on Gao Mingcheng's thigh, wanting to play with him.

The elf followed suit, but could only rest on Gao Mingcheng's calf.

Gao Mingcheng patted Heihu's dog's head, pointed at the cattle and sheep that were grazing, and said to Heihu: "Heihu, I have found three younger brothers for you, and they will be under your control from now on!"

Hei Hu initially rejected the arrival of the elves to some extent, but after accepting the elves later, the two dogs became as close as father and son.

The so-called hard work for those who are able, you see, Heihu has a younger brother to take care of him again!
The black tiger seemed to understand. He walked around the calf and the sheep, sniffed around them, and then called out to Gao Mingcheng in a low voice.

OK!

"Mingcheng, are you thirsty? I poured water for you." At the gate of the courtyard, Duomei was standing there.

When Gao Mingcheng chatted with the villagers, Duomei went home first.

After unloading the things, I started pouring water to drink.

"Okay." Gao Mingcheng replied, and walked towards the house. After walking all the way, he was indeed thirsty.

As soon as he finished drinking a glass of water, he saw Duoyu coming from the direction of the old village. Duoyu had a smile on his face and looked pretty good.

She still held a large handful of bitter wheat vegetables in her hand, as if she had come to deliver food to them.

Sure enough, after meeting, Duoyu first said: "Your vegetables are grown late, and you can't eat them yet. The bitter wheat vegetables in my field have grown a lot, and I brought you a handful!"

Bitter barley is similar to bitter cabbage, but tastes better than bitter cabbage, and grows taller than bitter cabbage, and it is similar to leeks, and it can be eaten from the leaves all the time, from March to April and May.

Duoduomei also planted bitter wheat vegetables, but only a dozen or so were planted, because if they were not sold, a dozen or so would be enough for a family to eat.

Duomei took the bitter wheat vegetables, and then brought out some rice cracker candies from the house, and invited Duomei to eat.

Many jades are not too polite, sitting on a stool, eating rice cracker candies.

She looked at this brand new house with envy in her eyes, and she was even more envious when she saw the cattle and sheep grazing at the foot of the mountain from a distance.

Her fourth sister is married into Fuwo!

"How beautiful, when the late rice is planted, will your cattle be able to plow the field? Then you can lend me the plow!" Duo Yu looked at Duo Mei and made a small request.

The calf Gao Mingcheng bought is not particularly small, and after a few more months of raising it, it should be able to plow the field when the late rice is planted.

Of course, the plowing speed of a calf and a strong ox must be different.

But Gao Mingcheng's own family only has one mu of land, and many Yu's families only have two mu of land.

Many beauty glanced at Gao Mingcheng, Gao Mingcheng nodded, so she said: "Okay, second sister, come and tell me when you want to use cattle."

Since Many Mei got married, the conflicts between her and her second sister have decreased a lot. When they lived together, they were often scolded by their second sister, and many beauties could only endure it under the eaves.

But now, Manymei has her own home and confidence.

Gao Mingcheng watched the sisters chatting, but he was not willing to listen to them, so he went out with a hoe.

His land was reclaimed last year and planted in the first year this year. The land is barren and there are many weeds.When the weather is good, the weeds will grow fast, and manpower is needed to hoe the weeds in time, otherwise the lush weeds will absorb all the nutrients in the field, and the vegetables will not grow well.

When weeding, Gao Mingcheng also noticed another thing, that is, he hadn't bought all the fruit trees yet.

There are few people selling fruit trees in the surrounding area. He only bought ten orange trees and two chestnut trees.

People in their village hardly grow chestnut trees, because there are many hairy chestnut trees in the mountains, and hairy chestnuts are similar to chestnuts, but much smaller in size.

However, for the chestnuts in the mountains, you only need to go to the mountains to pick them when they are mature. It doesn’t cost land, fertilizer or manual management, so the smaller ones should be smaller, anyway, they can be eaten casually.

But Gao Mingcheng came across a seller of chestnut trees, so he bought them anyway.

The chestnuts grown by myself bear much larger fruits than the wild chestnuts, and they are more enjoyable to eat.

He looked at a large piece of land that was still empty, and began to wonder whether he should go into the mountain to dig some wild fruit trees and come back.

There are not too many species in their mountains, but there are still wild peach trees, wild grapes, wild persimmon trees, wild bayberry and the like.

In Xiaoyuan Mountain, there is a large area of ​​wild bayberry trees, which can produce a lot of bayberry every year. When it rains, there will be a lot of bayberry under the tree.

Why are the red bayberries falling to the ground?It is because bayberry is too sour!Sour people really can't eat it, and only greedy children will climb up the bayberry tree to pick bayberry. The bayberry picked is eaten in a serious manner at first, and then it will evolve into attacking the other party. Weapons, set up a red bayberry frame.

Of course, at the end of the day, each mother will beat each child to end this happy day.
