Xianggong farming

Chapter 256
After hearing Aunt Qi's words, Ji Xinmiao comforted her with a smile: "Sister, why are you angry with these people? Anyway, we don't make money by selling seeds. Because we are all from the same village, you tell this family not to teach That’s too much gossip. How good is it now? Since it’s easy and doesn’t offend anyone. If there is a bumper cotton harvest this year, many people will be grateful to us, isn’t that a good thing?”

Aunt Qi also laughed when she heard it: "It's still Xinmiao who thinks well. A person who is knowledgeable and sensible is different from a vulgar woman like Eldest Sister. You are right, the bold and the timid will be starved to death. I believe that as long as we With God's blessing, they will make a small fortune."

"That's right, it will make those people jealous!"

Ji Xinmiao has calculated that next year, if there are no natural or man-made disasters to grow cotton by transplanting, the yield per mu will definitely exceed [-] catties.This year, more than half of the first-grade cotton was planted, and the price was good. An acre of cotton land earned more than four taels of silver.The land where cotton is grown is not fertile, and it is not bad to earn a tael of silver for the usual grains.

A total of 38 families came to order cotton seeds, and they all brought a deposit of [-] yuan.After considering and explaining everything, Ji Xinmiao finally said, "Since you can trust me, I will tell you the truth. If there are no natural or man-made disasters next year, I can guarantee that your mu will yield more than [-] catties."

These 38 families have a total of 63 acres of cotton to grow, so she will be very busy after a year, so Ji Xinmiao decided not to plant in the village, anyway, she is not short of that little money.Moreover, her belly will be born next year, and once the baby is born, she will not be allowed to go out for at least a month.

If one mu of land receives 60 taels of money, and more than 25 mu of land, then her income will also be around [-] taels of silver.After paying labor and costs, she can earn at least [-] taels of silver.Thinking that the shed is ready-made, and the wages for hiring labor are not much, it is enough for her to guide Father Qi and Aunt Qi in the family.The Jiang family and the Lin family let Qi Silang and Ji Kunping do it.

Ji Xinmiao was full of confidence.

In order to improve the seeds and teach Qi Shilang and Ji Kunping the method of cotton transplantation and planting cotton, Ji Xinmiao asked Qi Erlang and Fan Qi to lead people to change all the vegetable fields in the backyard into greenhouses.

"Eldest sister, Ping'er, fourth brother, we call the mud balls for cotton planting hotbeds. The mud balls should not be too big, otherwise it will be tiring to dig a hole when transplanting. Moreover, the mud and plant ash are three parts mud and six parts ash. Add a portion of cow dung, mix it well, press it out with this iron cylinder, and it will be neither soft nor hard..."

While directing the three of them to mix the mud balls, Ji Xinmiao demonstrated the modern briquette pressing cylinder that Qi Sanlang had brought back. First, he inserted the iron cylinder into the mixed mud pile, and then lifted it out and stepped on it lightly with his foot. A cylindrical mud ball was placed under his feet.

Qi Shilang was very curious: "Sister-in-law, let me try."

Ji Xinmiao supported his waist and handed him the iron-style tool: "Fourth Uncle, you don't need to use too much force, just press it lightly."

Qi Silang was eager to try: "Well, I see, sister-in-law, look at me."

Sure enough, he was a smart kid, Ji Xinmiao looked at the mud ball that Qi Shiro pressed out and said with a smile: "Not bad, you can try it too, brother."

This time it was originally used for teaching experiments, and it was over after getting more than [-] samples.Just when several people were about to pack up their tools and leave the shed, Jixiang Ruyi screamed loudly, and at the same time Qi Liushi's sharp cry came: "This dead bastard, why don't you pull those two dead dogs away!"

Ji Xinmiao walked out of the shed and her face sank: "Second Sister Liu, who do you think is a bastard?"

Qi Liushi didn't answer directly but screamed: "Sister-in-law, you are too unfair, aren't you? You closed the door and hid behind to teach eldest sister, fourth uncle and your natal family to earn money. Why can't you teach Jiao Sanlang? Isn't he your uncle? Or do you only like the fourth brother?"

Hearing this, Qi Shiro roared angrily: "Fuck you! Your mouth is so stinky, did you eat poop!"

Ji Xinmiao looked at Qi Liushi with disgust and said: "I don't know that the third younger brother and sister have never read books, and they don't even understand basic morality. I am the elder sister-in-law, do you understand? The elder sister-in-law is like a mother, and the elder sister-in-law is like a mother to the younger sister." Hello uncle, that's his junior. I'm not as nasty as you, and all I think about are these shameless things. I advise you to stay away from that Liuqian, and rely on her sister to make love with your brother. Not a decent person either!"

The scar in his heart was uncovered by Ji Xinmiao again and again, Qi Liu's face changed and his hands trembled with anger: "You..."

Ji Xinmiao knew that she had hit Qi Liu's weak tendon, and the disdain on her face became more and more serious: "What's wrong with me? Did I say something wrong? But you are a capable sister, let your own You are so proud of your younger brother doing this kind of messy thing with others on your own bed. It seems that only a sister can have a brother!"

Aunt Qi who walked out of the shed sneered again and again: "Isn't it? If my younger brother did such a shameless thing, he would have been beaten to death by him long ago, so as not to embarrass our ancestors!"

Qi Liu was ridiculed by the aunt and sister-in-law for a while, covered her face and ran away.

Seeing that Mrs. Qi Liu is always looking for trouble like Xiaoqiang who can't be beaten to death, Ji Xinmiao asked in puzzlement: "Sister, do you think that Mrs. Qi Liu has something wrong with her mind? She clearly knows that she can't get anything good, but she still always asks for help. Love to jump."

Aunt Qi's eyes were full of contempt: "You can tell by her appearance, can her brain be smart?"

Ji Xinmiao asked intentionally: "Is this aunt and uncle close relatives?"

Aunt Qi nodded again and again: "Yes, Uncle Liu's biological mother is the stepmother's biological aunt."

Ji Xinmiao said with a face of sudden realization: "So it's the product of close relatives? No wonder this brain is so stupid! I have heard that when people with blood relatives get married, most of the children born are stupid or have physical defects."

At this time, Aunt Qi suddenly asked suspiciously: "Is there such a saying?"

She had read Da You's National Chronicle, and it seemed that the senior had said that three generations of close relatives could not get married.It’s just that it’s been a long time since dynasties, and this kind of reference has not become a law. Of course, no one will remember it hundreds of years later.And people in this era always think that kissing each other is the best way to continue the relationship between two families.

Ji Xinmiao nodded affirmatively: "Absolutely, I've read it in books before."

After Ji Xinmiao mentioned it, Qi Silang came out to confirm: "Sister, what sister-in-law said may be the sentence mentioned by Guozhi Rang. I heard that it was proposed by Emperor Taizu. It's just that many people think it's impossible, so no one has been Pay attention to."

Only then did Aunt Qi believe it and said: "So that's the case? I really think that the two children of Sanlang seem to be out of their minds, and I thought it was just normal. It seems that we should remember these in the future, don't think that they are close relatives. Well, if a few fools are really born, this family will be ruined!"

"Yes, yes, it's the eldest sister who thinks far ahead. In the future, I will also have to take good care of my children's marriage, and don't miss the future generations because of ignorance." Ji Xinmiao finally breathed a sigh of relief. She is really afraid that her children will grow up in the future. Come here, come a few relatives and ask them to get closer, then she will definitely not agree.But if she disagrees, it will definitely cause gossip. As long as Aunt Qi is here, it's nothing to do with her.
