On the correct posture for farming in the last days

Chapter 81

Now no one has the spare energy to raise trees.

"How many fruit trees do you have?" Xiao Chen asked.

"There are still five apples alive, two pears, four or five plums, and many peach and apricot trees." Old Liang said.

"The apples and pears are considered fresh, and the peach and apricot trees are still alive in our village." Liu Ya was not lying.

Although the families with peach and apricot trees in the village basically did not have any fruit this year, most of them did not die.

But their family doesn't have any, so they still need to transplant a few trees.

"Then these, you see?" Lao Liang also knew that these things are worthless now.

"I want the apples, pears and plum trees you mentioned. If there are five peach trees and apricot trees, I will give you five barrels of cooking oil and ten packs of compressed biscuits."

Old Liang continued to listen, but he was gone.

"Is this less?"

"This is too much, not too little. We are holding life-saving things now, and your fruit trees still have to be taken care of." Liu Ya said: "If you change it, get it right away. If you don't change it, we can leave. I guess there will be more. There are other places too."

Where did Lao Liang dare to hesitate, he quickly nodded and changed.

After changing it, I started to make arrangements.

It took two days to dig and plant trees.

Apples and pears were planted in the greenhouse outside the wall, and these two were the two tallest ones built at the beginning.

Four trees on one side and three trees on the other side are still rich.

The pear, peach and apricot trees are outside again. These are not very grafted trees, and they are probably able to survive the winter.

In the village, the village head said Liu Ya's previous speculation.

The people in the village are very active this time, and everyone can think of this reason.

So hurry up and get busy.

Wild vegetables, mushrooms, and some people caught rabbits.

Some people think about the voles in the field. In fact, the locals don't eat voles very much, but they are a good thing in critical times.

There are also people who have a way, go out and change some salt or other things.

While it's warm, stock up food quickly.

The harvest in the field is not looking good, why don't you hurry up and think of a way?
Liu Ya's house, peach trees, apricot trees and plum trees were also planted to Zhou Zhiqiang's house.

Anyway, after they survived, the two families ate together.

In order not to make their family tired of serving.

In July and a half, it is considered hot.But barely thirty degrees.

It's still noon, and sooner or later the sleeves will be broken and I won't be able to wear them.

The crops in the field are indeed indescribable.It's just millet and millet.

But it's also flat.

There is still more than a month, but will God give me a month?
Although he killed someone last time, Ke pulled the wood.

Everyone hoarded charcoal last year, but after all, not everyone is as rich as Liu Ya's family.

So it's bound to not be that much.

Even if you add the people who died last year, it is barely enough.But who knows how cold it will be this year?

Be prepared.

So everyone is still busy pulling the wood.

As expected, Liu Ya's house occupied the empty house not far away, and the villagers had no objection.

The main reason is that this empty house is hard to live in, so I can only put things.

Just put the wood.

In addition to the money earned by donkeys, there are also fruit trees and pine branches that died last year on Nanshan Mountain, and the savings are full.

I also collected a lot of pine needles to kindle the fire.

The pine cones also made several sacks. Of course, there were no pine nuts in them, and they were all eaten by squirrels and birds.

Only the shell is left, which happens to be a good thing for burning fire.

In addition to human food, animal food should also be preserved.

Fortunately, there is Zhou Zhiqiang's family to help, and everyone is busy with stockpiling.

In the eighth month, the pregnant ewe gave birth to a calf.After waiting for a long time, I finally watched the four sheep give birth to six lambs.

Now there are thirteen sheep in the family.

However, Squad Leader Xie and the others ordered two live sheep and wanted ewes, and they also wanted to raise them in the small base in the county town.

Liu Ya's family decided to change the seasoning, cotton, and coarse grains next.

As for rice, although it was decided before, it may not be available in the south like this.

Squad leader Xie and the others came again and took the sheep away.

Now there are eleven lambs left in Liu Ya's family, six lambs, and two half-grown ones that were born last year.The second is the four ewes that are suckling the lambs.

And a big total ram.

The two half-grown ones can be killed in the Chinese New Year, and they happen to be rams.

Piggy can be killed at the end of the year, all of them can be killed, and one pig can be killed after the year.

The good news is that two of the three cows are finally pregnant.

But the cow is pregnant for nine months and will not give birth until April of the next year.

That’s right, it’s warmer in April too, so the calf won’t freeze to death after giving birth.

On the day of the eighth month of the lunar calendar, the family discussed and harvested the potatoes.

"It's a bit early, isn't it? Wait another half a month to grow up." Zhou Zhigao said.

"At this time last year, the temperature had dropped suddenly. What if the temperature also dropped this year? If the potatoes are frozen, you can't eat them." Liu Ya said.

This is true, the family has nothing to say, although it's a pity, but they can't all freeze to death in the ground.

Most of the people in the village also thought so, and the whole village was in a hurry to harvest all the potatoes.

Then there are millet and millet, flat or flat, with seeds anyway.

If you wait any longer, it will be useless as soon as it freezes.

as predicted.

When people were rushing to harvest corn and sorghum, the first heavy snow fell so unexpectedly.

Fortunately, there was no messy hail this year, and everyone braved the snow to rush to collect them.

Corn is really flat, but it is still a thing.

Every household started to light fires, and on the first snowy night, the temperature dropped directly from above zero to about ten degrees below zero.

Liu Ya's family directly spread the food on the floor of the third floor and turned on the heating on the third floor.

Baking for ten days is almost enough.

The tender corn called Liu Ya cleaned up a lot.

In fact, almost all of them are tender, because the time is not enough.

But there is no way, you have to be old if you urge it, otherwise you won't be able to survive.

But this tender corn has a cob. Cows, donkeys, and pigs all like it.

If you give it directly to the chicken, the chicken will also peck. After pecking, you can cook it and continue to feed the pig.

Simply, Liu Ya transferred the corn to the south room, let it freeze.

Anyway, not much, just feed the open-mouthed beasts one by one slowly.

Of course, now is the time to be tender, and people are very happy to eat it.

The willow buds have been refrigerated a lot, and they cannot be frozen if eaten by humans, and they will not work if they are frozen.

I also made a lot of particles.

Most of the food this year will be fed to the open-mouthed beasts.

Millet and broomcorn are all right.

Ma Fen muttered: "The new millet is here, and I will make cakes for you later, Xiao Chen hasn't eaten yet."

"Okay." Liu Ya narrowed her eyes in satisfaction,
Xiao Chen also nodded frantically, wanting to eat anything he hadn't eaten before.

Ma Fen smiled and went to work.

After the first snow fell, the weather warmed up for a while, and the villagers were busy harvesting the last grain.

After a busy summer, there is also a lot of food brought down from the mountains.

There is also food that needs to be replaced by medicinal materials. Anyway, this winter will not starve.

But every household is not as good as last year.

For example, milk powder, sugar, such things are gone.
