I loaded the farm game

Chapter 2 First attempt at planting

Back in the room, Linzhou looked at every scene in the house.

In the living room of less than [-] square meters, there are various daily necessities in the small space.

In the place facing the entrance of the house, there is a small table for eating against the wall, and a rubber stool is placed under it.

On the right are two old chairs, the other end of the chair is against a small bedside cabinet, and beyond that is the bed next to the window.

Opposite the chair is a "stove" made of bricks and stones, with a rice cooker and some sundries placed on it, and some daily necessities are also hung on the wall.

In the corner next to it, there is a refrigerator.

In addition to the living room, there are two bedrooms. One extends into the wall next to the dining table. The size inside is almost enough for one person to walk after putting down a single bed.

The bedroom outside is slightly larger, but because it has a double bed, the remaining space is also very small.

In addition, plus the simple kitchen counter and bathroom at the corner of the corridor outside the house, this is the complete picture of this house.

In other words, Linzhou’s temporary home!

That's right, the reason why it is temporary is because such a house is still rented.

Even the two chairs and the bed in the living room were picked up by his mother's friends who didn't want them when they moved to the new house.

Lin Zhou's family is not rich, and can even be said to be poor.

Originally, his family consisted of four. Apart from his parents, he also had a younger sister.

His father is a brick worker and works on construction sites outside, while his mother works as a farmer at home and takes care of Linzhou brothers and sisters in school.

The family's economy is basically supported by the father alone.

Of course, if it was just like this, life would be similar to that of most ordinary families.

But during Linzhou's sophomore year, an accident changed their entire family.

A job that my father took over, when the payment was settled, the boss ran away and disappeared.

After hard work, nearly a year's wages have come to naught.

You only get a small part of the wages that you usually pay in advance.

However, the house leak happened to rain overnight, and the boat was late and hit the headwind.

The consequences of this matter are far more than that, because this job is the boss contacted by my father, and the workers who work with him are all good friends.

As a result, they didn't even get the money. After the incident, Lin Zhou's father actually vomited and suffered brain hemorrhage and was sent to the hospital for emergency treatment.

Due to the huge surgical fee, this family with no savings could only scrape together, borrow money from everywhere, and owe a large amount of debt.

However, even with the final preparations, his father still failed to wake up from the operating room.

This probably corresponds to the old saying: hemp ropes are only broken at the thinnest places, and bad luck only seeks out those who suffer.

After losing the mainstay of the family and the main source of income, Linzhou's family is even more burdened with debts from relatives and friends.

Life was extremely difficult.

The mother, who used to be a farmer at home, also had to go to a small county town to find work to supplement the family's income while slowly repaying the debt.

After all, going out in the morning and returning at dusk, exposed to the wind and the sun, and working hard to cultivate the land for a year is not even as good as going to other places to work as a worker for a month's wages.

Not to mention, for Lin Zhou's brother and sister to go to school and pay off their debts.

However, for this family, the only good news is that Yi Lam went to a major university with cheap tuition, board and lodging.

The grants and scholarships he applied for, plus the money he earned from working during the winter and summer vacations, were enough to live on his own without any need for family subsidies.

As for his younger sister, she was admitted to a key high school in the county. She has good academic performance and is very sensible, so she didn't make him and her mother worry too much.

Even so, their family is still in a state of poverty.

Everyone is frugal and frugal, wishing they could break a penny in half and spend it.

If my mother is alone at home, she basically doesn't buy meat to eat. Even if she buys a piece of meat, she has to divide it into small pieces, freeze it in the refrigerator, and eat a little at a time.

My younger sister is also at school, reluctant to eat, and has never bought anything other than study-related items.

Coupled with the intense study in high school, the originally beautiful little girl became as thin as a bean sprout.

Every time Lin Zhou and her mother asked her to eat more and save money, she always nodded, but when they saw her, she was still the same.

Although Lin Zhou also wants to change this life so that his mother and sister are no longer trapped by money.

But after all, he is just an ordinary person in this world, a student who has not graduated.

And how can we have the ability to quickly change all this?
Thinking of this, Lin Zhou sighed softly and came back to his senses.

These familiar things in front of me seem to have a different feeling when I look at them at this moment.

Perhaps, change, just today!

He turned on his cell phone, found his mother's number and dialed it.

After a beep, the phone was connected.

"Mom!" Lin Zhou called into the phone.

"Xiaozhou!" A joyful response came from the other side of the phone.

"Mom, it's me. Are you busy today?"

"No, I didn't go to the store to help today. I'm selling vegetables here at the old street bridge."

"How are you doing recently? Are you short of money? Recently, mom has been working a lot here and earned some money. Why don't mom get some for you? Don't be reluctant to eat."

Hearing his mother's concerned voice on the phone, Lin Zhou felt a burst of warmth in his heart.

His mother's name is Qin Suyun, and she is usually in the county, mainly doing cooking jobs in restaurants and hotels.

Because some hotels don't need too many manpower on weekdays, so when they receive a large banquet and are short of manpower, they will recruit some outside manpower to help.

Lin Zhou's mother used to help the chefs who hosted banquets in the village in her hometown.

It can be used as a pier for cutting vegetables, and it can also be used as a steamer.

In addition, she is kind and has strong communication skills, so she can receive a lot of work every month.

And in her free time, she is not idle, and she will plant vegetables and fruits in the field.

When it's ripe, you can't finish it yourself, so you sell it nearby.

Speaking of this, Linzhou also admired his mother very much.

Because they are near the county seat and have no land.

The fields for this kind of vegetables were all planted by her friends in the county who didn't grow them at home.

In addition, when she meets people in the same place outside, she can also have a lively conversation, from Tiannan to Haibei, without stopping.

Lin Zhou truly felt that this communication skill was great.

Recalling this, he didn't speak for a while. Qin Suyun on the other end of the phone noticed it and hurriedly said: "Xiaozhou, what can I do for you? Didn't you say you were writing a paper and had something to answer? Is it because of this?"

"Mom has no education, and I don't understand these things. Do you need money? How much do you want? Mom will find a way for you."

"Mom, don't worry, I'm fine." Lin Zhou hurriedly replied after hearing her nervous words.

"The school is waiting to get a diploma now."

"It's okay." Qin Suyun felt relieved.

"Then Mom will send you some more money. I heard from Sister Wang today that it is popular for college students to graduate now... It seems to be called graduation tourism, right? Xiaozhou, you can take advantage of this time to go out with your friends more."

"Mom, no need, I'm already home!" Lin Zhou unconsciously shook his head.

Her mother was always like this. Although the family was still in debt, she never treated him and his sister harshly. She would rather work harder and let them live the same life as other students in the school.

"Xiaozhou, you're home!!!" Qin Suyun's surprised voice came, obviously happy with the news, but soon she said worriedly: "When you come back, the school -"

"Mom, just relax, aren't you still worried about me?" Lin Zhou knew his mother's character and directly used a murderous weapon.

Hearing this, Qin Suyun didn't say any more, because Linzhou had always reassured her, and asked again:
"Then Xiaozhou, is there anything you want to eat? Mom will buy it for you later."

"Mom, I see there are vegetables in the refrigerator, so you don't need to buy them." After Lin Zhou finished speaking, before his mother could speak, he asked again, "Mom, do you have water spinach seeds at home?"

"There are water spinach seeds. They are in the bag behind the door of my room. Look for them." As soon as Qin Suyun finished answering, another voice sounded from her side.

"How much does this lettuce cost per catty?"

After Linzhou heard it, he also asked her to go to work, so he ended the call and went into the slightly larger bedroom to look for water spinach seeds.

After a while, I found an unopened packet of seeds behind the door.

In fact, in Linzhou, when growing water spinach, most people buy seedlings and plant them, and few use seeds.

When he received the task just now, his first thought was to use adult seedlings for planting.

Now, he also has the mentality of giving it a try, to see if it works, and if not, let his mother buy it back.

With this in mind, Linzhou picked up a small foam box inside the house, took a small hoe, closed the door, and went downstairs.

Not long after, he returned to the house, but there was some fresh soil in the foam box.

Test, let's go!
Linzhou picked up the seeds, poured out one, sprinkled it in the soil, and then covered it with another layer of soil and watered it.

After doing this, he took a deep breath and meditated in his heart.

"Enter the farm!"
