Let’s take a look at the name Zhao Lanxiang gave to her son?
Yaozong!
The boy is a treasure, but the girl is just weed?
There are many families in the countryside that favor boys over girls, but they are all flesh and blood. How can they really treat girls as nothing more than human beings?
Tian Guihua shook her head in confusion.

He bent down and skillfully wrung out several other small pieces of clothing and hung them on the rope one by one.

She pushed Lu Miao into the house and said:
"I know you have good intentions, but I can't intervene in this matter! It's too sunny outside, why don't you go inside and sit down? I'll come sit with you after I finish cleaning this."

"Um……"

It’s better not to ask about this matter. If you ask, you will still feel uncomfortable.

The key point is that the child is someone else's. What reason do they have to interfere? How can they interfere?

Lu Miao responded dryly, and went into the house with a heavy heart.

The house is more lively when there are more people.

After returning from the lake in the afternoon, Lu Miao knocked a few green dates in front of the door.

The children bent down to pick up dates and screamed with joy.

The elders from the village who came here to thresh the grain saw that each family had some orange or pomegranate trees, so when they came here to work, they would bring some over.

When it got dark, Fu Jingyou and He Erge moved the bamboo bed out of the door.

Lu Miao washed the simple fruit plate and placed the teapot.

The adults brought out chairs and stools and chatted while fanning themselves.

The people who were keeping watch on the threshing floor nearby all came over here.

The children lay on the bamboo beds, their feet and arms, as white as lotus roots, thumping around.

He counted the fireflies on the jujube tree and pointed out which star had blinked just now.

The lively and hearty laughter continued until the second half of the night.

……

The next day, Hu Zhiyuan came to visit with some things and brought his seven-year-old son with him.

The names Hu Zhiyuan gave to his two children are very representative of the times.

My son’s name is Hu Jiangang.

My daughter's name is Hu Xiuying.

When he came over, he happened to see Lu Miao and the others heading to the back mountain.

There are fruit trees planted on the back hill.

Normally, fruit trees will start to bear fruit in the third year.

This is only the second year after planting, but some of the trees have already started to bear fruit.

Lu Miao thought about going over to take a look.

Hu Zhiyuan came over, and everyone went to watch it together.

The older children looked at the younger ones and took them everywhere to play.

However, before leaving, Fu Jingyou caught Minjie and Shian and gave them some instructions.

It was emphasized that younger brothers and sisters should not be taken to the bamboo forest, the waterside or places that are too far away.

After being beaten during the Spring Festival, Minjie and Shian understood a little bit and nodded in agreement.

Fu Jingyou patted the two boys on the head.

After each of the children was equipped with a large and small straw hat, they went up to the back mountain.

He Hongjin said that the quantity was small and they could not be sold for a lot of money, so usually the villagers would just pick some and eat them.

Lu Miao thought there weren't many, so he didn't have much expectation.

But when we got there, it was completely different.

Most of the fruit trees planted are peach and plum.

The growth rate of the seedlings of these two types of fruit trees is relatively fast.

In two years, the tree has grown to over two meters tall.

The diameter of the branch and leaf crown is almost over 1.5 meters and between 1.8 meters.

The main branch is not very thick, about the same thickness as Lu Miao's wrist.

Many branch tips were drooping to the ground uncomfortably because of the fruits hanging on them.

It looked like it might break at any moment.

As he walked and looked, Lu Miao picked two fruits from time to time to compare them.

After a quick walk around, her face under the brim of her hat was red from the high temperature and covered with sweat.

However, we also discovered several fatal problems. The first was that there was no isolation zone on the top of the mountain.

The fruits haven't fully grown yet, so the impact is not significant.

But when there are more fruits in the future, theft prevention becomes a problem.

Another thing is that there is plenty of sunshine in the back mountain. Along the way, I have seen many fruits, but only a few of them are in good shape.

The problems are caused by poor soil fertilizer efficiency, lack of pruning and trimming, and excessive growth of fruit trees.

Lu Miao could find the problem, but his personal knowledge level could not solve it. He could only communicate with Fu Jingyou and say:
"Growing fruit trees is the same as growing melons and vegetables. You can't think that a tree is good if it grows big and tall. You should prune the tips where necessary and cross out the leaves where necessary. If your own people don't understand these things, then find someone who does."

"The place where I bought the seedlings should have some knowledge."

There are about two hundred trees!

For a village this small, the scale of cultivation is not small, so scientific planting should be emphasized.

Just do it well and aim to make money to improve your life.

Otherwise wouldn’t it be a waste of time, effort and hard work?
Besides, these all require investment.

"There are also anti-theft guardrails, hedges, and other things. Such a large area of ​​the mountain cannot be completed in one go. We have to prepare them when we have some free time."

If we wait until next year, it might be too late.

Another thing is the soil fertility effect...

Lu Miao did not bring it up rashly.

In the past two years, more and more families in the team have started raising pigs.

There is no problem growing crops with farm manure and compost.

But if we were to add such a large orchard, it would definitely not be enough.

Any idea to solve this problem?

Fu Jingyou nodded, taking note of her words, took off his straw hat to use as a pocket, and picked a large bag of plums for her to take back.

Lu Miao frowned and thought deeply all the way, and when he reached the foot of the mountain, he actually came up with an idea.

She pulled Fu Jingyou and said excitedly:

“You can raise pigs!”

"Ok?"

She suddenly said this without any logic, and Fu Jingyou was completely stunned.

"What about raising pigs?"

"Oh! It's in the orchard!"

Lu Miao scratched his chin and stamped his feet in excitement:
"When the fence is erected, we can raise some piglets or chickens in it!"

"The grass roots on the mountain are intricately woven together, binding the land tightly. Pigs will dig for food, which is just the right way to loosen the soil. They eat, drink, defecate and urinate in the soil, and it also becomes ready-made fertilizer!"

"And what is this? A combination of farming and livestock? Once it's done, it will be two sources of income!"

Fu Jingyou thought about what she said and felt that it made sense.

But raising pigs is probably difficult.

Pigs eat a lot, so it is difficult for them to get enough food if they are just free-range.

If you want to keep it pretty close, you have to provide artificial feeding.

Then the cost will be high again.

Raising chickens is ok...

The chickens can’t eat much, and the hill is so huge.

Just dig up the soil and peck at the bugs, and that's about it.

In the past, people in the village raised chickens in this way, free-range, and rarely fed them.

Fu Jingyou thought it was feasible, so after sending her home, he turned around and went to He's house with Hu Zhiyuan.

This matter was originally a family affair.

After listening to the analysis, He Hongjin felt it made sense.

While all the young people were there, He Hongjin gathered all the prestigious old men in the village, and they began to discuss the matter formally.

Fu Jingyou went there at noon and came back in the evening.

At that time, He Erge and Tian Guihua had just left. (End of this chapter)
