Chapter 175
After the betrothal gift was given, Da Lang's marriage was considered settled.In the days that followed, the Tong family was still busy, and Erlang and Bowen followed Bilian to Fucheng.

It's raining, and Yuxian blocked the toad again by the river before.But this year, it was blocked in the south of my own forest, near the river, so there is no need to block my own forest.Xiao Si didn't understand, so he asked her: "Little sister, why didn't you block our woods this year?"

"Fourth brother, this toad came out of the river to enter the mountain. If we want to raise a toad, let it enter. Let's block it in other places, so that we can send the mother to our forest. The public keeps some and puts them in the forest, and the rest can be given to Uncle Yue.” This year, it’s the only way to do it, and it will be fine after the toads have laid eggs in the pond.

"Understood, just like this, there are not so many toads running to our mountain. We caught them from other places and sent them to the mountain, and there will be more in the future. This is a way, okay." Xiao Si figured out why. thing.

It rained one day, and the next morning, Yuxian and the others went to Toad for a trip.Grab the female one, put it in a pocket by itself, and pour it directly up the mountain.Then part of the public was left behind, ready to be sent to Juxianlou, and the other part was also dumped in the mountains of his own home.Although it is said that toads will jump around everywhere, and they will not stay on the mountain obediently, but the mountain of Yuxian's house is big enough, even if some toads run away, there are still many left.After working all morning, they caught toads that could weigh thirty catties. Yu Xian and the others kept five catties for stewing at home, and Da Lang sent the rest to Juxianlou.

Dalang drove the car to send the toad to Juxianlou, just as Boss Yue was not there.But the guys all knew him, so they put the toad away, and Da Lang turned around and left.Now that Boss Yue is his father-in-law, how can I have the nerve to ask for money for something worth a few hundred pennies?

In the following days, as long as there is rain, the children will go to the toad to catch the toad, which is still the old way.Boss Yue found out about Da Lang sending toads here, so he couldn't say anything, he just said that he would go and see Yun Song and the others someday.

Yuxian took the time to look at the ponds that had been dug, and found that the water inside was full.It would take a long time for such large ponds to be filled with water, so Yuxian began to pay attention to the river.She found that the water in this small river was very fast, and the flow rate was not small. It seemed that there should be a mountain spring with a large amount of water flowing above it.So, she asked Xiaosan to accompany her and walked up the river.About 20 miles away, I found that the mountains in front of me were different.The mountains are all rocks, and the banks of the small river are all cliffs, and the spring water rushes down from the cliffs.This mountain is like hiding a big kettle, spewing out spring water non-stop, large and small waterfalls, with different postures, it is simply dazzling.

"Third brother, it's so beautiful here. It would be even more beautiful in autumn." The scenery in front of her reminded Yuxian of Shiwudaogou in Changbai County in her previous life, which was even more beautiful than this.In fact, there are many such scenes at the foot of Changbai Mountain.Yuxian ran to the small river and picked up the water with her hands, it was so cold.After taking a sip, it was clear and sweet. This spring water is really good. "Third brother, we still have to work hard to make money and buy this mountain again. The water is so good. If we build a wine-making workshop below and use this spring water to make wine, it should be very good."

"You, you always worry about it all day long. Making wine is not so easy. Distiller's koji is a national franchise. If you want to make wine, you have to buy it. With the same koji, can you make better wine than others?" Xiaosan Couldn't help but hit Yu Xian.

"Ah? I don't know. In the past, we didn't use distiller's yeast to make fruit wine. So there is a saying that wine is allowed to be sold, but distiller's yeast must be bought from the imperial court, right?" Yuxian didn't quite understand. I think this should be another way for the court to control wine.

"That's right. Ordinary winemaking workshops can't produce very good wine. Good wine can only be produced by those run by the imperial court." Xiao San nodded. "Let's go home first, we can talk about this later."

The two brothers and sisters walked back, and this round trip took more than 40 miles. When they got home, Yuxian was so tired that she lay on the kang and did not move.Fang brought food and asked Yuxian to eat, but Yuxian didn't move, "Mother, I don't want to eat, I'm exhausted. I walked forty miles today, ouch, my feet hurt. Mother, I'm not hungry, let me lie down and eat at night, anyway, it won't be long for dinner." If a person is too hungry, he won't feel hungry. Yuxian's main feeling now is tiredness, and the whole body feels tired. All hurt.

"You, I don't know how to think about it. If you want to know what it looks like, just ask your father, and you have to go by yourself. I really don't know what you've been thinking all day. Well, you should have dinner later." Alright, let's eat together." Fang said a few words, and then took out the meal again.Yuxian was lying on the kang, so exhausted that she fell asleep after a while.

When I woke up again, it was already dark.Everyone in the family had dinner, so Yu Xian left the food in the pot.Yuxian ran to the kitchen, took out some food from the pot, and ate some by the pot.After eating, Yuxian touched her little belly, "Oh, I ate too much, it's better now, my stomach is full." After saying that, she went back to her room and didn't have anything to do. I had to take out the book and read it.After a while, sleepiness came up again, put the quilt on the kang, and covered the quilt.Then I went to get some hot water to wash my feet, then climbed onto the kang and continued to sleep. "Enough to eat and sleep, I'm almost catching up with pigs." Yuxian said in a daze.

At the beginning of April, it was a good time for spring plowing, and Yun Song took all his family members to farm.This year, the family has cattle and horses, pigs and chickens, and some other animals, so a lot of fertilizer has been saved.I got some big shit in the sun last summer, and it's just in time to use it now.It is still the method of fertilizing the pit with a small basket, and Yuxian, Bo Chao, and Haoyu are responsible for this work.

The first planting is still the [-] acres of good land, and what will be planned this year according to the stubble of the previous year.After last year's transformation, the fifty acres of wasteland can be regarded as stronger, and all of them have been planted with corn this year.The [-] mu of wasteland opened up this year can only grow beans, sweet potatoes, potatoes and the like.The Tong family didn't have enough hands, so they rushed to plant the [-] acres first, and hired helpers for the rest.Some people in the village have little land, and the work is done in a few days.Like Yunfeng Yunhua and the others, the family only has more than ten acres of land, so naturally they can do it much faster than Yunsong's family.Those two families had no cattle, so they went to the old house to borrow them, but Mrs. Liu always said that they hadn't run out.So Yunhua had no choice but to borrow money from Yunsong.The calf in Yunsong's family has grown up, and there are two cows in the family, and the wasteland has already been opened up.So Yun Hua came to borrow it, so she lent him the old cow.Yun Feng and Yun Hua joined forces, and at least they finished planting the land.As soon as he heard that Yun Songna was looking for helpers, he hurried over, together with a few others in the village, they planted the wasteland together.

On two hundred acres of land, one hundred acres of soybeans were planted, and those near the river were planted with sweet potatoes and potatoes.Last year Yuxian planted some medicinal herbs in the corner of the garden, this time Yuxian also transplanted them into the ground.Anyway, there are not many, and it doesn't take up much land.

By the time all the land has been planted, it will be almost April [-]th.At this time, almost every family's land has been planted.Yun Song started to tidy up the forest again. According to Yu Xian's instructions, he dug a trench one foot deep and two feet wide around the forest.The excavated soil was just rammed into an earth platform to enclose the forest.This project is not small, so it is still necessary to hire helpers.Fortunately, every family's land has been planted, and it happens to be fine, and Tong's family hired someone not only to take care of the food, but also to pay wages, so even people from Xijiang Village came.

There are forty or fifty people working every day, Fang and the others can't even cook.So Zhuzi's wife, Chunsheng's wife, Zhao's wife, Huzi's and Shuanzi's daughters-in-law were invited to help, and the Zhou family also came.Shuzhen didn't come because the child was too young to leave.Fang was embarrassed to use others for nothing, so he said that he was paid thirty Wen a day just like the men.

"Sister-in-law, look at what you said, we have been together for so many years, don't we need to pay for a few days of help?" Chunsheng's daughter-in-law said.The people around also echoed.

"Sister, listen to me, my family's work is still behind, and the ancestral hall has not been built, and the ancestral graves have not been repaired. All these need to be hired to help, and when the time comes, I have to find someone to cook, otherwise my family will be so busy Come here? Is it possible to ask you to help this spring? Which family has no old people and children, and which family is not living? You can take this money with peace of mind. When my Dalang goes to his wife, I will be happy if you all come to help me. "Fang's words are reasonable and reasonable. After everyone listened, there was nothing else to say.

It is still the strength of the masses. With everyone's efforts, the periphery of the forest has been repaired almost half of it in ten days.Most of the men in the two villages came to work.Thirty cents a day, and you still have to eat, where can you find such a job?Yun Feng and Yun Hua were also there to help, Yun Bai didn't come for the first two days, and Liu Shi scolded her so much, that's why she came awkwardly.Mrs. Liu also wanted to help with the cooking. The couple earned sixty wen a day, which was quite a lot.

Thinking of this, Mrs. Liu went to Yunsong's house, just as everyone was busy there. "Sister-in-law in the lobby, let me come and cook for you too. You see, I have nothing to do at home."

Mrs. Fang was busy, and when she heard what Mrs. Liu said, she didn't raise her head, and said, "Sisters and sisters, you see, I have enough people. The kitchen is so big, there are too many people and it is impossible to turn around. Thank you, really There are enough people." With Mrs. Liu here, the Junjies have to follow, so can others eat those good things?Not all of them went into their stomachs.Fang didn't commit that foolishness.
