Spatial Farm Life: Raising My Kid, Abusing Scum, and Keeping Busy With Life Chapter 108

Chapter 108 This woman is not simple

This time she didn't hire anyone, she took the women to turn the ground up, sprinkled chicken dung and cow dung, sprinkled a layer of straw on it, and started burning.

After finishing the work, plow the land again, sprinkle water and raise it.

At this time, it is time to drive stakes.

She ordered the shopkeeper Niu to order a lot of wood from the carpenter's shop, all of which were about the same thickness and had not been processed. They were cut directly, solid wood with tree forks.

After buying it, sharpen the bottom, surround five acres of land, and ram it into the soil regularly.

She divided the land into ten pieces on average, and one piece of land was five points. The greenhouse was too big to build, and the winter here was snowy and windy, so it could only be divided into five points and five points.

Mr. Wang finished the class, and when he had nothing to do, he would stroll in the field behind. He was very curious to see her operation.

"Girl, what are you doing?"

"Put up a greenhouse, just like the greenhouses of your rich families, but you don't burn the ground cages underground."

"what are you up to?"

"Grow vegetables."

"I really have you, so the cost is not high?"

"The price of vegetables is still high."

"That's right, rare things are more expensive."

"The vegetables I sold from other places last year were sold for a tael of silver a catty during the Chinese New Year. Most of them are bought by people. Good products are not afraid of high prices. If you grow them yourself, you can earn more."

"Haha, so, my old man has a good fortune in winter?"

"Necessary, I grow vegetables for selling, and for the convenience of eating at home."

"The top of our Wang's greenhouse is glazed, can you get it?"

"I don't use that, it's really troublesome to take it apart, I made my own Ming cloth, the sunlight can penetrate through it, and the vegetables inside grow like the same."

"Yo, what a skill, the old man is looking forward to it."

"Don't worry, when I plant it, you old man is free, just come in and pick vegetables."

Yuan Jiaqi finished class and came to help in the afternoon when he had nothing to do. The children watched from the sidelines if they couldn't help, and rushed up if they needed help.

After setting up all the stakes, she started making minbu.

Cleaned up the yard, removed all obstacles on the ground, set up a large iron pot in one corner, and burned wood under it.

Buckets of milky white glue were poured in. This was a laborious job, so Yuan Jiaqi volunteered to boil the glue.

It was ok at first, then as the glue got thicker, the agitation became more and more vigorous.

Seeing his strenuous effort, Mrs. Qiao alternately stirred the glue with him. Seeing that it was almost done, she took out a small spoonful of glue, poured it on the cloth and tried it, then turned off the fire and started to spread the glue.

She used a smooth scraper to scrape the glue evenly on the flat white cloth.

Mr. Wang sat on the side, watching with interest, he really admired Mrs. Qiao, his eyes were full of admiration.

A woman is petite, weak, and always does worse things than men. This woman is not simple.

He was very fortunate to be a husband in this family. Although he didn't have Shu Xiu, he got many times more than Shu Xiu, both materially and spiritually.

Yuan Jiaqi did the same, looking at Qiao Mai with fiery eyes.

Seeing that she was a bit tired, I took over the work in her hands and tried to do it. Under her guidance, the scraped glue became more and more even.

When the cloth after scraping the glue was cool, the two women took the needle and thread to join the cloth together.

In advance, she had already stretched the cloth, and five cents of the land was 300 square meters, which was about 11 or 2 meters wide and 21 or 2 meters long.

This white cloth is two feet seven wide and ten meters long, and two feet seven is almost one meter. Thirteen pieces of cloth are needed to connect five points of the ground, and two pieces of cloth are needed on each side.

They can only make one piece of bright cloth a day. Once the glue on the cloth cools down, a few women start to sew and stitch.

Then, taking advantage of the day and night, I went to the ground and fixed the cloth firmly on the stake.

In the middle, a door with a width of 1.5 meters and a height of 2 meters is used to hang the cotton curtain to pass people back and forth.

There is a rope on the grass curtain, rolled up when the day is warm, and put down when it is cold at night.

This busy work lasted more than ten days, and it was not until mid-October that all the greenhouses on the five acres of land were set up.

At this time, the land is well maintained, and we start to order vegetables.

First of all, leeks are preferred. People here like to use leeks to make dumplings and scrambled eggs.

Then there are garlic sprouts, fried bacon, scrambled eggs, and some of them are delicious in soup.

Followed by braised eggplant, garlic eggplant, cucumber, cucumber dipping sauce, long beans in sesame sauce, vegetarian water spinach, lily celery, shredded cabbage, scrambled eggs with tomatoes, and stir-fried meat with green peppers.

They are all good dishes for dinner, and she likes to eat them, so let's grow these ten dishes.

After finishing this work, I started to buy.

There are two yards and many empty houses at home, and they have to be used.

Stock up some white lotus roots, some Chinese cabbage, some white radishes, some carrots, some hawthorns, some chestnuts, and scorpions, too, and a lot more.

Muzi should be purchased while starting to make 杮cake.

Fortunately, there are many people in the family, and the income cannot keep up with the sun-dried ones, which relieves Qiao Mai's pressure a lot.

There are also peanuts, melon seeds, and mountain products from the mountains, all of which should be stocked up.

During the harvest season, the prices are not high.

This paragraph made her so busy that she didn't have time to enter the space during the day, let alone do embroidery work. At night, she just wanted to sleep.

Seeing that Ruxin's big day is approaching, she, as a master, can't forget it.

Early, I sent shopkeeper Niu to buy all the wedding accessories, just waiting for the arrangement the day before the day.

The shopkeeper Lu also took back the wedding dress, and put it in Ruxin's room.

The Feng family's 30 levies of dowry, plus the 50 levies of dowry bought by shopkeeper Lu, totaled 80 levies, which is the only one in the county.

Not to mention, Lu Sanniang also secretly set up two shops in the county for her daughter, and gave her two thousand taels of silver.

In order to make the daughter tougher in the Feng family, shopkeeper Lu also bought her a nanny and two maids who are close to her.

This nanny comes from a wealthy family, she knows etiquette and winks, and teaches her by Ruxin's side, so as not to soften her heart, and if others say she is obedient, her dowry will be cheated away.

It was the first time for Qiao's family to hold a wedding. It was very grand. The mayor was invited a few days ago. Qiao Mai didn't post a post for Wang Zongsheng. It became the attention of the whole town and county, so the post was only given to Wang Jiaru.

She took her younger brother to live in Qiao's house the first afternoon.

There was also a congratulatory gift like a core, a pair of gold bracelets. This gift made shopkeeper Lu feel very radiant.

Early the next morning, Mayor Qian arrived with two guards and gave Lu Sanniang a gift box.

Then came the shopkeeper Lu's sisters in the county seat. There were five or six of them, all dressed in silk and satin, and accompanied by two maids who were serving them.

Some people who are familiar with her from the town also came, including the owner of the carpenter's shop and the owner of Jingtai Building.

Finally, Lu Sanniang's natal family arrived, and this was the first time Qiao Mai saw her natal family.

Her parents, Mr. Lu and Mrs. Lu Guo, look fifty years old and are well maintained. They rarely work in the fields.

Her elder brother Lu Haoran is dressed in a long robe and looks very bookish. Now he runs a private school at home. Her elder sister-in-law Lu Qishi is slightly fat and average-looking, but she looks very shrewd and neat, without being mean.

Brought a son and a daughter, all married, their spouses held them in their arms and led them by the hand, and they all came with their families.

Only shopkeeper Lu's mother gave her daughter a red cloth bag.

There are not many guests here, so there is no billing table, and all the congratulatory gifts are handed over to Lu Sanniang.

What was unexpected was that the mayor of Tianhe Town heard that Xin'er had arrived with a gift.
