Chapter 230 231 Harvest

  Ruyi clumsily hugged the child, and quickly said to Mrs. Zhang, "Sister Zhang, you are holding me, I'm scared." Everyone laughed when they saw Ruyi's nervous look.

After Ruyi handed the child over to Mrs. Zhang, she rushed into the delivery room and saw Xiaoyu lying there with a pale face, her hair soaked with sweat, and wiped her gently with a handkerchief in distress: "Bad boy, I don't want to pick a cool day, it will take you more than a month to cover such a hot day!"

  Wen Po listened to Ruyi's words, and laughed with a 'poof', "This little brother, how can you choose the time to have a child? It's all doomed, it's fate!"

Ruyi took it seriously, and nodded incessantly: "Yes, it's fate, fate." Only then did she remember that she hadn't given Wen Po a red envelope, she took out two pieces of silver from her pocket, handed it to Po Wen, and said with a smile, "Excuse me, please. Now, please come again in three days." Wen Po happily took the money and said happily, "I must come."

   Granny Wen packed up the delivery room and walked outside the door. Li Yu gave her another red envelope. Granny Wen happily accepted it and saluted, "Thank you, Madam, thank you." Granny Wen took the purse and was sent out by Mrs. Liu.

  Three days later, the child was baptized three times in the county government office, and Ruyi gave the child a nickname of Qijin. Everyone watched the child look the same every day, and after a few days, he became white and plump.

In a flash, it was late June, and Li Qing was going back to Tongzhou to attend Zhao Di's wedding. Li Yu went to Zhuangzi to break a few packets of tender corn and cook it for Li Qing to eat, while Li Qing ate the cooked corn. , with a sweet and sour heart, he said to Li Yu, "Sister, I'm not a child anymore. You boiled all such precious seeds for me to eat."

Li Yu looked at Li Qing, who was slender and taller than himself. He divided the emperor's jewelry into a set and put them in several boxes. Some gave Zhao Di a gift, and some gave Li Mei and Laidi.

Li Yu put the gift in Li Qing's bag and said reluctantly, "You will always be that little Aqing in my sister's eyes, you have to be careful along the way and don't rush too much. The Xu Chun brothers are both veterans. , you have to listen to their opinions more, don't act impulsively, give your aunt the jewelry and gifts in the box, and tell her to not be too tired."

  Li Qing held back the tears in his eyes, turned his head to look out the window, and said in a hoarse voice, "I remember, don't go to the city gate to see me off later, brother-in-law and brother Ruyi will see me off."

Zhou Jia entered the room and said to Li Qing: "It's time to leave when the auspicious time comes. The matters you should pay attention to in the township test are recorded in the notes your brother-in-law gave you last time. You go back and concentrate on your studies. We will meet again after the township test, Yuer, you are at home, I Send Ah Qing out of the city and come back."

Li Yu nodded, and reluctantly sent Li Qing to the door, watching Li Qing get into the car, tears could not stop falling, Li Qing sniffed, the siblings waved goodbye and looked at the car After walking away, Doctor Wen said to Li Yu who was standing at the door: "Xiaoyu, come back! See you in a few days."

yes! There is no such thing as a banquet in the world, Li Yu sighed in his heart, looked at Mr. Wen and smiled: "Well! It's just a little reluctant."

   After sending Li Qing away, the days quickly arrived at the end of June and the beginning of July. The corn in the cornfield had already matured, and the leaves on the corn stalks had also turned yellow and withered.

Ruyi and Yang Wei, with their long-time workers, beamed at the corn cobs in the field. Everyone quickly broke off the corn cobs and moved them back to the drying field. Following Li Yu's teaching, they tore the corn leaves and tied the corn cobs to four or five. In a bunch, hang them on a pre-built bamboo frame and dry them in the drying field.

After the corn was brought back home, Yang Wei led people non-stop to bring back the beans in the field. The beans in the corn field were planted in the ditch. Only two acres of land were collected and more than 20 bundles of bean stalks were taken home. Everyone still felt that Happy, because these beans are the additions to the harvest of these two wastelands.

After the    fields were vacated, Yang Wei led a long-term worker to plough and fertilize the wasteland that had already been opened for drying, in preparation for the next season of corn.

In the first ten days of July, the fragrance of rice flowers filled the whole land of Qingchuan. Li Yuchen and Yang Wei came to the four-mu breeding field with Ruyi and Yang Wei, and said to the two: "I found that the rice flowers are in the middle of the beginning and the beginning of the season. During the flowering period, the flowers will be harvested after this hour, and the flowering period is only a few days. We will take advantage of this time to help wild rice bloom and pollinate, increase the breeding success rate and increase the yield."

   Ruyi and Yang Wei took notes carefully, pulling a rope under the command of Li Yu to pollinate the wild rice that was being bred. It took Ruyi and Yang Wei an hour to complete the four-mu breeding field.

Li Yu went back to the village and saw that the corn cobs in the drying yard were also dried. Li and Yu Niang took several long-term workers’ daughters-in-law and sat in the shade of the eaves porch, rubbing corn kernels. Li Yu said to several people: "Remember to put the shriveled seeds aside, to save you having to pick them again when planting."

Yu Niang pointed at the selected scorpions and said: "Madam, most shriveled scorpions are picked from the top of the corn cobs. We separate the corn kernels from the top and put them in a basket separately, and then use a wind mill to wind them. Once you choose it, it will save you a lot of effort.”

  Li Yu gave a thumbs up and said, "I didn't expect our Yu Niang to be a smart woman, and she deserves to be praised."

   Yu Niang looked at Li Yu strangely and said with a smile: "Madam is getting more and more glib, so you know how to pour me ecstasy soup."

   "Madam, you dare to say that your skin is itchy, right?" Li threw a corncob on Yu Niang, and everyone laughed.

  Li Yu counted two acres of corn and harvested nearly twenty stone of corn seeds. He picked out more than twenty acres of land. Seeing that the corn cobs were almost finished, he planned to take a look at the newly opened sloping land.

When he walked to the sloping land, he saw that the excavated land was already covered with fertilizer, and the long-term worker, Uncle Da Shui, saw Li Yu coming to check the sloping land, and said to Li Yu, "Ma'am, fortunately, we have dug a dozen deep pits to compost the fertilizer ourselves. Since the nearby villagers know that , the fallen leaf fertilizer on the mountain can fertilize the land, and the fallen leaf fertilizer on the mountain is pulled home, and now I can’t dig a basket of fertilizer up the mountain.”

   Li Yu said with a smile: "With the addition of leaves and rotten vegetable leaves, the manure is the same. There is no need to go up the mountain to find fertilizer. Only when the wasteland is opened will the fertilizer be used, and the crops will be harvested."

Da Shui and the other long-term workers knew that Li Yu could farm better than them, and said to Li Yu with a smile: "Madam, don't worry, everything is done according to your instructions. I sprinkled it once, and when I was raking the ground, I sprinkled it again, and it was full of fertility."

  Li Yu nodded and said with a smile: "Everyone works hard and will give everyone a red envelope during the Chinese New Year."

  The long-term workers laughed happily when they heard about the red envelopes for the new year, "Thank you madam, we will wait for you to give us red envelopes and have a good year."
