Chapter 24 The Orion Sun Family
Lian Ze raised his head: "Sister, do you really want to go?"

Lian Fangzhou nodded, and said with a smile: "Don't worry! Sun Orion has been to so many times, hasn't he come back well? Where can he go, where can't go, how far can he go in the forest, he must have a good idea Qing! Follow him, nothing will happen!"

Seeing that Lian Ze couldn't convince her, he had to let out a muffled "Oh".

Lian Fangzhou looked around and found that apart from forests, there were also many wastelands with dwarf shrubs and weeds that were very suitable for reclaiming crops.

Lian Fangzhou couldn't help staring at it: After all, this is ancient times. If it is left in the present, let alone wasteland, I am afraid that the forest land will be reclaimed.

"So much wasteland, it's a pity we don't have the strength. It would be great if we could reclaim it! We can plant a lot of things!" Lian Fangzhou couldn't help but sigh softly.

"Sister," Lian Ze glanced at her and said with a smile, "It's not that easy! To reclaim wasteland, you need to issue a certificate, send someone to measure and estimate the value, and you have to pay money, and then go to the county government to file. Once you get the title deed, this counts!"

"I still need money!" Lian Fangzhou finally understood, no wonder no one cultivated it!

"How much does it cost per mu?" She asked hastily.

"I don't know about that." Lian Ze shook his head and said, "No matter how much, we can't afford to drive now anyway!"

"That's what you said!" Lian Fangzhou smiled and said, "We can try it when we have money. It's all mountainous land, not fertile land. I guess it won't be too expensive!"

It is also a good thing to spend some money to get the title deed...

"Even so, it depends on whether it's worth it or not," Lian Ze said again: "After the wasteland is reclaimed, you have to pay taxes every year! It seems that one mu of land costs [-] Wen."

"..." It turns out that there were so many types of taxes in ancient times!It would be great if there were Huanong loans!

The four of them worked for a long time, and finally dug up all the sweet potatoes.Lian Ze and Lian Fangzhou loaded it with baskets, and each of them picked up half of the basket. Lian Fangqing and Lian Che each took a bamboo basket, and each carried a basket on their shoulders.

The four of them went back and forth three times like ants moving house, and finally carried all these sweet potatoes back home.

In the past, they were all piled up in the corner of a room, but Lian Fangzhou let them all be piled up in the attic.

If it is dried in the attic, the sweet potatoes will not rot and can be preserved better, and the water contained in the sweet potatoes will slowly evaporate more, so that the sugar content in the sweet potatoes will increase and taste sweeter.

In fact, there are many ways to eat sweet potatoes. In addition to making sweet potato porridge and baking on the stove, you can also cook sweet potato syrup, remove the skin and cut into slices, hang it in a thin batter and fry it in an oil pan, and use a plane to throw it into shreds and dry it in the sun. It can be made into shredded sweet potato, which can be steamed and cut into pieces and spread out in the sun to become dried sweet potato. If it is ground into powder, it can also be made into cakes of various flavors, beaten into pulp, and sweet potato powder. ...

However, considering the current financial situation of the Lian family, Lian Fangzhou can only review many ways to eat in his head.

Sweet potato flour and sweet potato cakes are the farthest; boil sugar water, where is the sugar?How much oil is needed to fry it in the oil pan, Lian Ze can eat her!

The only thing I can think about is making some sweet potato shreds and drying some sweet potatoes.

That's all, I can't do more, because although the taste is much better after this treatment, it is basically considered a snack, and it can't fill your stomach!And they need this sweet potato to fill their stomachs now!
So I can only make some teeth-beating sacrifices, and save some to eat during the Chinese New Year.

After dinner early, Lian Fangzhou forced Lian Ze to go with her to Sun Changxing's house at the head of the village and ask about going to Xianteng Mountain.

Sun Changxing's family is a migrant family with no farmland and only two or three acres of lean land. They are even poorer than the Lian family, and they live in a thatched hut. One can imagine the situation of the family.

But what Lian Fangzhou admired the most was that Sun Changxing and his wife cut down their clothes and went on a diet, and forced their only 13-year-old son, Sun Ming, to study in a school in the county.I heard that his grades are not bad, and he is one of the five people in the academy who are expected to be admitted to the scholar next year.

It is precisely because the couple have to pay a large sum of money for this every year, so they have been unable to buy good land, and Sun Changxing has to venture into Xianteng Mountain again and again.

When Lian Fangzhou and Lian Ze came, they were sitting at a simple table having dinner.

On the table was a plate of unknown vegetables, a small plate of dark pickles, and two bowls of thin sweet potato porridge, and the couple sat opposite each other.

When Lian Fangzhou smiled and called "Uncle Sun, Aunt Sun" to come in, both Sun Changxing and his wife Miao were stunned.

He responded with "Ah!", wiped his mouth, stood up in surprise, and said with a smile, "Isn't this Fangzhou and Aze? You are here—"

Sun Changxing is an outsider, and he is very polite to everyone in the village.But because he lived on the edge of the village, he basically had no contact with the villagers.

Just like at this moment, he couldn't figure out when he had been in contact with the Lian family siblings even after searching his stomach.

His inquiring eyes couldn't help looking at his wife: Did you ask them to come here?
Miao was equally puzzled and shook her head slightly at him.

Sun Changxing smiled at them, and Miao also greeted them with a smile, "The house is too simple, I'm laughing at you!"

"Uncle Sun, Aunt Sun, you are welcome! We interrupted your meal! You should eat first, it's not too late to talk about it later!" Lian Fangzhou smiled and apologized, and sat down beside Lian Ze.

Sun Changxing didn't know why they came, how could he eat?He smiled and said, "It's okay, it's okay, you guys say it, let's talk first!"

Lian Fangzhou saw his confusion, so he opened his mouth and said with a smile, "That's right. I don't know when Uncle Sun will go to Xianteng Mountain again. We want to go with Uncle Sun."

"What?" Sun Changxing and Miao's eyes widened and they were both stunned.

"What did you say?" Sun Changxing asked in surprise, "You are going to Xianteng Mountain? What are you going to do?"

There was a little vigilance in his tone: Could it be that the siblings also want to go hunting?But where would they actually be?It's not that I want to follow myself for a good share...

That can't work, my own is not enough!
"Of course we can't hunt. Everyone has the skills of Uncle Sun!" Lian Fangzhou said with a smile: "We just want to go and see if there are any mushrooms or other wild products that we can get for the New Year."

She added another sentence: "You know the situation of our family..."

Sun Changxing and Miao couldn't help but look at each other, both of them couldn't help but feel soft-hearted.

Although the specific circumstances of the two families are different, there is a saying that goes well, happy families are equally happy, and unhappy families are unhappy in their own way.

Both of them belong to the unfortunate kind, and it is not an exaggeration to say that they share the same disease.Lian Fangzhou's words naturally resonated with them easily.

Sun Changxing sighed softly, and was about to agree, when Miao's heart skipped a beat, and she hurriedly said, "How is this possible? Both of you, brother and sister, in Fangzhou are still young, can you bear such a long mountain road? And ,Too dangerous!"

As she spoke, Miao kept winking at her husband.

What if something happened to Lian Fangzhou and his brother?Their family is an outsider, and they have always behaved with their tails between their legs. How could they ask for trouble?
Sun Changxing immediately understood what his wife meant, smiled "hehe", and was about to refuse, Lian Fangzhou hurriedly said with a smile: "Uncle Sun, Aunt Sun, in fact, it's just that Uncle Sun will show us the way, our siblings It's not that ignorant child, can he still run around and cause trouble when he gets there? And, just this time, just this time! By the way, wait a minute!"

As Lian Fangzhou said, he turned and went out, and brought in the melons and ladles of rice that were left at the door.The so-called melon ladle is a kind of white melon that is grown and cut into two halves from the middle after it is old, and the flesh inside is hollowed out, which can be used to scoop water.

"Our siblings are also embarrassed to let Uncle Sun lead the way. After all, we are not familiar with the Xianteng Mountain. We have to ask Uncle Sun to tell us what to pay attention to and where we can go and where we can't go! This little rice is not a respect. Please, Uncle Sun and Aunt Sun don't hold it against..." Lian Fangzhou smiled shyly.

Sun Changxing and Miao's eyes lit up when they saw the scoop of rice.

For those who do not have paddy fields, rice is the most expensive and rarest thing.Seeing rice made their eyes light up and their hearts jumped even more than seeing silver.This is an obsession, an obsession to pursue.

Girls, where are the tickets?
