Chapter 35

Before and after Qingming, we planted melons and beans. Although the rain did not fall again, it did not prevent everyone from continuing to plant new hopes.

"Oh, it's still not raining today, so I think it's difficult for the seedlings to emerge." Gao was a little worried.

"What are you afraid of? We can carry water to water it, and we are not afraid." Hu said.

Their vegetable garden is behind the house, and now there is a well, and the water is also nearby. Although it is drought, the water in the well has not become shallow. This is good news for everyone. If there is no water in the well Well, it's really hard to say whether I can survive it.

Tomb-sweeping day is here, and the family prepared paper ingots and other things to go to the grave, and they all went to the mountain to kowtow to the ancestors who have passed away, because the Qi family and the Zhang family had a quarrel, this time the two will ignore each other life and death, that is It is impossible to go to the grave together.

It's like having you without me, and having me without you, so each family can only go to the grave separately.

"Father," Du Youliang brought Du Sanlang over, Mr. Du nodded, and then asked, "Why didn't your wife and Taoer come over?"

Du Youliang hurriedly said: "Sanlang's mother is a little uncomfortable."

Mr. Du didn't say anything anymore, and Mrs. Qi frowned. Although the second child came to visit the grave together, Mrs. Liu couldn't put on airs.

Come on, she doesn't even bother to talk to this woman anymore, whether she loves it or not, the old ancestors don't want her to worship her.

Speaking of Du Youliang, he wanted his wife to come here with him. After all, this was going to his grandfather and grandmother's grave, and it could also bless their family to make a fortune in peace.It's just that the daughter-in-law said that when she went here, her mother's face must be pulling her face. She was afraid when she saw it, so she didn't come here.

Now that he secretly glanced at his mother, his face was drooping, so it was right for his wife not to come over, lest mother would scold her again.

I don't know why my mother just treats my daughter-in-law badly, how good my daughter-in-law is, all good things are for me, no one has ever been so kind to me!

Du Youliang was thinking about his little thoughts. Everyone had already burned the paper money. As the head of the family, Mr. Du said some heartfelt words to the elders on the mountain.

When going down the mountain, Mr. Du said to Du Youliang: "It's drought this year, let's buy more food." Anyway, remind me, he is his son after all.

Du Youliang hurriedly smiled and said: "Father, we know this well." He has money in his hand, when he can't buy food, now he can eat rice every meal.

Liu'er saved the young master once in Qin's house, now Liu'er is more valued, even if there is a drought, their family will not panic.So Du Youliang didn't take his father's words seriously at all.

Seeing Du Youliang like that, Mr. Du knew that he didn't listen.

What he should say has already been said, what should be reminded has also been reminded, and he has nothing to say.

Even the Qi family had nothing to say to him, Du Youliang rushed away as soon as he came down the mountain, and even Du Youzhong didn't speak to him.

"Second brother doesn't think we need to ask him for help, right?" Du Youquan said sarcastically.

Recently, some people have been thinking about sending their girls into the Qin family, because it's good to see Du Youliang's family's life passing by, but some people even asked them to get their connections, but none of them agreed.

It seems that in terms of money, this personal freedom is really nothing.

"Okay, don't say these words." Du Youde looked at the old lady, and the old lady's face turned even worse, Du Youquan quickly shut up, he didn't want to be scolded by his own mother.

The rapeseed in the field is ripe. Du Yu’s family planted an acre of rapeseed. This is the family’s oil for a year. In the past, they were afraid of rain at this time, and then let the rapeseed sprout. Now it is extremely dry. There are no more scruples in this regard.

But it has to be taken back quickly, crushed into rapeseed and stored away.

Everyone in the family has left the field, not to mention an acre of land, I said it in one day, and put a cloth felt on the spot. Because the rapeseed is already ripe, it is particularly easy to explode, and the rapeseed is small. Rolling to the ground, even with a broom, it is not easy to sweep up.

"I don't think it needs to be exposed to the sun for a few more days, and it will be photographed directly." Du Youxian looked at the rapeseed and said, it was too dry.It's like no moisture at all.

In the past, when the rapeseeds were harvested, they had to be dried for a few days to remove the water, but now it is really unnecessary.

Du Youde and Du You all nodded, this is really true.

So the next day, the family was busy taking pictures of the rapeseed again, so that Du Yu's hair was covered with small, black rapeseed. Finally, it was finally finished, and it was only about three hundred catties, which is so little. Du Yu thought that at least five hundred catties could be produced, but the result was half to half.

The productivity in ancient times was really too low. Without chemical fertilizers, we relied on farmyard manure, so the production was not high.

"How many catties of vegetable oil can we produce here?" Du Yu asked.

Vegetable oil has a smell, which is only eaten by ordinary people. Good people can eat any kind of peanut oil, let alone sesame oil. However, Du Yu did not find that anyone here eats soybean oil. In fact, soybean oil also has a smell It has a beany smell and is also the cheapest oil in modern times.

Hu said, "Fifty catties."

Three hundred catties only produce fifty catties of oil. It seems that the level of this oil workshop is average. Du Yu doesn't know how much modern ones can produce, but it must be higher than this. They all use machines to squeeze oily.There is no way to compare.

Busy to and fro, just for the [-] catties of oil, and the crops in the field have to pay taxes, who will care what you plant?
But people want to eat and cook, and it is impossible not to eat oil. For the fifty catties of oil, they have to grow it.

Their big family eats oil, and they really use fifty catties a year?This is so economical!Du Yu once again admired a dozen or so people with fifty catties of oil!

No wonder she wanted to learn how to cook and stir-fry. Several female elders disagreed. It turned out that she was afraid that she would waste oil. What a tragedy!
For the few of them who are cooking, they just wish they could wipe the oil on the bottom of the pot with a cloth, and it's barely oily.

No wonder everyone was very happy when they saw that their father had bought the fat meat. After all, the fat meat was covered with oil.

She finally understood that she didn't like to eat fatty meat before, so she was really virtuous.

Why didn't she know how to ask about the oil yield of the rape before?
Well, there was a storm in Du Yu's head for a while, and it finally returned to calm.That's impossible.

"Bah, get the hell out." Mrs. Qi refused the request to ask her sons to help their uncle. Mrs. Zhang was too shameless, so she didn't have much time to quarrel. She said such nasty things, it was too busy, so she went again Thinking about letting my children help his family, there is no door!
The people who bullied their family are honest, aren't they?Disgusting stuff!
"All of you are not allowed to go. If anyone dares to go secretly, don't enter this house!" Mrs. Qi said harshly.

"Mom, we don't want to go. We used to help out. Auntie wished we could work from morning to night. The food delivered at noon was always soupy. Even the dinner was not good. We won't go this time! " Du Youquan said.

"Old Five is right, and it will be the same in the future. It's nothing!"

Mrs. Zhang heard that no one was invited, so she said to Uncle Du: "Your second brother and the others are too useless. They will not save you. Don't expect me to help them in the future!"

Uncle Du said: "Don't say that to me, it's all because of your stinky mouth. If you didn't offend everyone, would you be able to become like this? You want to take advantage of others, and see if it's the one Material!" What a stupid woman.After all, he and his second brother are blood brothers. Others haven't spread gossip yet, but his wife has.

Mrs. Zhang was scolded by her own man, and said angrily: "You think I really said it. Is it because her own daughter-in-law showed that meaning, and I said it? It's not a good thing!" Zhang said It means that the reason why she said that is still revealed by Mrs. Liu.

Mrs. Zhang saw that Mrs. Liu was doing well, so she often went to their house. As a result, she saw Mrs. Liu talking about the peach one time. Mrs. Zhang guessed it based on what she saw on New Year's Eve. .And Mrs. Liu gave her a good ruler, so she has to complain about Mrs. Liu, right?

Who knew that the mad woman named Qi found out, blocked the door and scolded her, so that she couldn't get off the stage.The relationship between the two is not good.

Taking advantage of this opportunity of cutting rapeseed, she invited people to help, which would solve the conflict, but the crazy woman didn't let anyone come over!It's all that crazy woman's fault, okay? Why is this man scolding himself?
Mrs. Zhang only dared to mutter in her heart, but did not dare to speak out, otherwise she might get punched.

"Excuse me, is this Du Youliang's house?" Du Yu was going to take out the garbage at the door, and came across a carriage parked here. There was a curtain outside the carriage. Du Yu recognized that it was made of silk.

The person who asked the question was a woman in her forties with a round face, and she reached out to give Du Yu a handful of candy, but Du Yu didn't pick it up. This woman must be coaxing herself.

"Who are you? Why do you ask my second uncle?" Du Yu asked.

"It seems that this is really Du Youliang's family. We are from the Qin family, and we have brought you something!" The woman said with a smile.

Du Yu heard that she didn't just come here to find fault, so she said to her: "My second uncle has been separated a long time ago, you go from here to there, and you see a family whose house is new, just ask. Already!" Du Yu said.

"Little girl, since it's your second uncle, why don't you show us the way," said the woman.
