My 1995 Small Farm

   Chapter 223 The farm is built

   In addition to pregnancy check-ups, meeting friends, and attending temple fairs, Chen Ling was basically busy weeding in the fields, spraying medicine, serving watermelons, and channelling streams. He was calm and unhurried, and he enjoyed it.

   That’s it, another half a month passed quickly, and by the end of March in the lunar calendar, the farm was completed on schedule.

Chen Ling took someone to check it twice. There was nothing wrong with the construction of bamboo buildings, wooden buildings, corridors, etc. Since that was the case, he was not ambiguous. After the wages were settled on the spot, he invited the people from the engineering team to be lively. After a noisy drink, he sent them away the next day.

Next, he didn't rush to move to the farm, but went to inform his friends that the farm at home was completed, and when he was free, he could come and play for two days. There were many rooms in the farm, and the family came to play. No problem.

This was mainly due to phone calls to friends such as Zhao Dahai, Bobcat and Liang Yuemin. They had said beforehand that when Chen Ling built the farm, remember to tell them that when they came to support, Zhao Dahai always shouted and dragged him to be his **** sister. Come and sing.

   Lynx also said that he would bring Rhododendron over to play for a few days after his farm was completed.

Everyone was very enthusiastic, and Chen Ling couldn't help but take it to heart, so he informed them all about his arrival. Anyway, his daughter-in-law was going to give birth to a baby in two months. He didn't have the heart to do anything other than fiddling around in the farm. them.

After calling these people, Zhao Dahai and Bobcat discussed with each other, saying that there is time to come over a few days after the ninth day of April, and it happened to be Saturday and Sunday. Chen Ling called and asked. Liang Yuemin, his side is fine. Two months ago, Liang Yuemin brought his wife and children back to Beijing to finish the work, and now he is in the city. In this case, Chen Ling set the date on the ninth day of the fourth lunar month, and let them all come over, and it would be lively at that time.

   But before that, Chen Ling cleaned up the remaining wood and bamboo during the construction of the farm, and piled them into firewood behind the kitchen of the farm, ready for fire.

Because the house is a two-story building made of bamboo and wood, this kind of building has fast heat dissipation, ventilation and moisture-proof, and it is cool and comfortable to live in summer and autumn. In the back, next to the kitchen, there are two large fire pits built out of stones, which Chen Ling specially used for barbecue.

  The back of the kitchen is used for stacking firewood.

   After finishing the treatment here, he drove all the poultry from the house to make room for the house.

   In addition, he also transported all the livestock troughs that had not been used for many years in the village and placed them in various places in the orchard outside the farm.

  There are chicken coops, duck pens, pigeon dens, sheep pens, cow sheds, etc. in the orchard, and a circle is built around the farm.

   On this day, Wang Jusheng and Wang Lixian came to help him when they found out.

  It is easy to manage cattle and sheep. It is enough at home for now. The key is poultry. Now with the hatched chicks and ducklings, there are hundreds of them.

Poultry are easily frightened. When chickens, ducks and geese are put into cages, piled high, and lifted onto the ox cart, many chickens and ducks are so frightened that their wings flutter, trample each other, hit the cage, their feathers fly, and cluck quack. It kept yelling, and a lot of **** was splattered.

   One of the old hens also laid an egg, which slipped out of the chicken coop and hit Wang Jusheng on the forehead.

   Zhang Qiaoling found the broken egg in the man's head, and quickly took out a handkerchief to help him wipe it, "It's alright, don't get it in your eyes."

   "It's okay, this egg is fragrant." Wang Jusheng didn't care, he smiled, hooked his tongue, and hooked the dripping egg yolk into his mouth, and then smashed his mouth, and the aftertaste was endless.

   "Eating again." Zhang Qiaoling glanced at him, saw Liu Yuzhi and others all looking at her, smiled embarrassedly, and continued to move to the ox cart.

"Qiaoling, you and Jusheng should also build an earthen shed. You can see that the rich and noble have made this kind of farm. Compared to this, building a shed is not a lot of money, and it doesn't take up a lot of space. Usually, it is easy to manage at home." Wang Lixian laughed.

   He made a small fortune selling vegetables during this period, and the mushrooms in the winter made him return to his basics, so he is very motivated now, and he is not going to work outside in the future, so he is going to figure out how to grow greenhouses at home.

   In the whole Lingyun at present, except for the old Yang Yuer from Yangtougou, he was working on the greenhouse, and the Erzhu one made a mess, let’s not mention it, anyway, there are few people doing this stuff now, and it’s time to make money.

"Brother Xian, why are you like Fugui now? Fugui thought Qiaoling's pickles were delicious last year, so he told me to build a pickle processing factory, and now you are persuading me to build a greenhouse. How can I get this temper? These?" Wang Jusheng licked the egg liquid from the corner of his mouth and shook his head.

He and Zhang Qiaoling are both the kind of people who are not suitable for doing business. They can't talk about prices, they have no patience in setting up stalls, and they can't deal with strangers. close.

   "This is the time when you can make money, so you really don't need to worry about it." Wang Lixian frowned and persuaded.

   Zhang Qiaoling also knew that this was a good intention, "Brother Xian, my family is not the material for this. I am even more stupid, so I can pickle pickles, and nothing else."

   She is not an outgoing person either. Even the former Lynx's daughter-in-law, who had never been to the house, stayed at home, and she was still acquainted with Wang Jusheng for Zhao Dahai. She was also the daughter-in-law of the party secretary, so she was the one who entertained her.

   "What's the matter, what are you talking about?" At this time, Chen Ling packed up and came out with his father-in-law and mother-in-law.

   "If you want Jusheng to build a shed, he won't do it..." Wang Lixian rubbed his chin on the couple.

   "Hey, don't do it if you don't do it, anyway, look at her face, Qiaoling's sister-in-law is the face of making a lot of money. If you can't make this fortune, if you make other fortunes in the future, you can't just put money in your pocket when you see it, right?"

  Chen Ling smiled happily at the two of them.

   "Rich and noble will be good and obedient. A poor woman like me can't do anything except farming, so how can she make a fortune." Zhang Qiaoling shook her head.

   This is also the mentality of most mountain people at this time.

Her pickled vegetables are really delicious, and the spicy sauce she makes is also very fragrant, but she has no intention of making this into a business, and she doesn't even dare to think about it. Can it be marinated into golden lumps?

  Chen Ling knew this, so after he mentioned it last year, he didn't say it again.

   "It's hard to say. When it's time to make a fortune, the money is just like the wind blowing in. Once you earn it, it's a sack. The fingers of the money are a headache, and the hands are cramping."

   "Hey, you're talking about yourself."

   "Looks like I made a lot of money last year."

   Everyone laughed.

  Chen Ling also followed with a smile, and then, on the matter of the greenhouse, he talked about the troubles caused by Lao Yang Yu'er in Yangtougou when he bought horses at the Luoma Market a while ago.

   "This old Yang Yuer is so unlucky. He just built a greenhouse for two years, and he made money when he came across this."

   "Oh, that's his fault for being inauthentic. He deserves it for stealing other people's horses."

   Several people were rushing to the farm, and they were talking lively on the way.

   There are some chats on the lips, and the work does not feel boring. When a group of people gets busy, they quickly arrange the chickens, ducks, geese, and quails.

   Chickens and ducks are nothing to worry about, the key is quail. There are too many quails and can’t be kept free-range, especially when the old quails in the house are sold out, the young quails and chickens and ducks are not familiar, and they don’t know how to go home with the chickens and ducks when they are released. They often run dry as soon as they are released. Two clean.

   And the farm is at the foot of the mountain, this place should be paid more attention.

   So Chen Ling built a fence with blue bricks in the place where the quails were raised, just like the pigsty, with the addition of a block to enclose a place, and a simple quail nest was built inside, so as not to be afraid of them running away.

   Quail, as long as you eat enough and have enough nutrition, you can lay eggs every day except in winter.

   Of course, if you keep them in a greenhouse in winter, you can even stop laying eggs all year round.

   But that's too impersonal, it's better to make some fried quail while taking advantage of the festive atmosphere of the New Year.

In the morning, clean up the place where the poultry is raised, put the poultry in classified, let them adapt to the environment first, wait for a while, and then release the chickens, ducks and geese to free-range after being familiar with the environment. At that time, there is no need to go to special feeding every day Now, there is a dog to help watch, you can look for food everywhere, and you can go back to the circle when it is dark.

   After finishing these, they had a homely meal at Chen Ling's house at noon.

   Lunch Gao Xiulan has already prepared, and you can eat it when you go back.

   In this free time, the old couple led the sheep to go out to herd sheep outside the village, and stopped by the farm to watch the poultry.

   Even with Heiwa and Xiaojin two dogs watching, they were still not at ease.

   This makes many villagers envy Chen Ling, saying that this baby is really a **** blessing.

   I used to have a good father, but now I have a good wife and husband, such a **** boy, why is luck so strong?

  Chen Ling doesn't care what others say about him, it's always a good thing to have two old people taking care of him, and he can also be busy with what he wants to do.

   So the next day, all the new furniture was moved to the farm.

   This is slowly cleaning up, and the Wang Jusheng family still come to help from time to time.

  Sometimes I stay for dinner, and sometimes I leave to help with my work.

   The main thing is that the farmhouse, in the eyes of the villagers, still feels different from building a house at home, and it is completely different from moving to a new house.

   In short, there is no need for the villagers to invite them to celebrate. They are so close. Whenever they wandered to the foot of Beishan, they would go to Chen Ling's farm to rest and say a few words in the vernacular. This is a common thing.

   Right now, we are raising poultry there, and after a while, we are raising fish, but people are not moving in yet.

  Since Wang Susu's production period is getting closer and closer, their family has no plans to move to the farm in a short time. It is not too late to wait until the baby is born around the sixth month of the lunar calendar.

  The farm is very large, which is very suitable for full moon wine.

   This is also caught up.

   So during this time, after the poultry was released, Chen Ling and his father-in-law took turns to guard the farm. It was not far away, just outside the village, so there was no trouble.

   Watching the poultry grow up day by day and the old hens laying more eggs day by day, they are only happy.

   In this season, there is plenty of food in the mountains, animals rarely come down the mountain, and the night is very calm, so there is no need to worry about this.

   Besides, as a medicinal farmer, Wang Cunye used to go to the mountains to collect medicinal herbs at night. At that time, he found valuable medicinal materials, and he was afraid that others would follow him.

   Not to mention, Heiwa Xiaojin is guarding here.

After the farm was built, the two dogs in the family were the happiest. They stayed in the farm all day. During the day, they patrolled and ran back and forth with the local dogs in the village. The place is big, and they may have fun. Up and down the mountain, the territory is divided everywhere.

The little yellow dog raised by Wang Cunye played with them all day, and it was getting wilder and wilder. He didn't keep it as a hunting dog at first, but now he often catches some small prey back. This is the nature of the tiger's head and yellow bones. Breeding dogs are like this, the more pure they are, the stronger they are.

   makes Wang Cunye both happy and a little worried.

  Chen Ling comforted him twice before he was relieved.

  …

  The time flickered, and it was the ninth day of the fourth lunar month. At about ten and eleven in the morning, Liang Yuemin and his family, as well as the Bobcats and Zhao Dahai, arrived at Chenwangzhuang one after another.

After    came, no one was empty-handed, it was all supplements for Wang Susu.

Wang Cunye and Gao Xiulan helped them receive them, and looked at the beautifully packaged gifts. Although they knew that their son-in-law was terrible and knew many capable people, they really saw people driving cars and carrying gifts. When I came to the door, I was still a little dizzy.

  Standing in the yard, I don’t know what to say to others, so I can only entertain with all my heart.

   "When was Susu born?"

   "I should be at the end of June. I can't help it. My reaction is weak, so I can only count the days with my fingers."

   "You, I've heard it long ago, your body is really enviable."

  The mother-in-law and the dolls chatted and joked around Wang Susu in the yard for a while, and then Chen Ling took them to the farm. Before, many of them had seen the drawings of the farm, and now they want to see what it will look like when it is built.

   went out of the village in a lively manner.

   After arriving at the orchard, there is a tree-lined path paved with bluestone slabs at the entrance. Along the winding path, you walk through the lush orchards. After walking for about five minutes, you can see a bamboo forest and two pavilions.

   After crossing the bamboo forest, you will see a gatehouse with bamboo and wood structure. On the south side of the gatehouse is a rectangular wooden board with a few lines of small characters written on it.

   "Fugui Mountain Villa was built on the first day of the eleventh month of the lunar calendar in 1995 and completed on the 30th day of the third month of the lunar calendar in 1996..."
