The cannon fodder of fast wear, she chooses to farm

Chapter 1040 The Lazy and Bad Sister-in-Law of the Blessed Nongmen (35)

"I met Lizheng on the road, and I gave him a basket of horseshoes. We can't finish this basket by ourselves. Ji Kang will pass by later, so let him take some."

Cui Jikang cuts firewood on the mountain every day at this time, and sometimes picks wild fruits and leaves a handful of them when passing by her house.

Xu Yin often asked him to take something back with him.

Comrade Xiaojin's brothers and sisters in this life, after a year of friendship, only my uncle Cui Jikang can often walk around.

The sister-in-law is the heroine, and Xu Yin is worried that she, the cannon fodder, will be drawn back into the plot if she gets close to the heroine, so it's better to have less contact.

Cui Er is clever, but he is really clever. In order to marry the daughter of the shopkeeper of the paper shop, he has to count the wages he has saved every time he goes home, for fear that their mother will use them.

This is true for his own mother, let alone his brothers and sisters. In his heart, he is no match for the little lady of Zhizhapu he wants to marry.

However, when Comrade Xiaojin's leg was injured, he did visit with his things. Even though it was only half a catty of mung bean cake, Xu Yin inherited this kind of favor and gave him two catties of duck eggs as a regular gift to her in-law's family years ago.

"Has your second brother's marriage been settled yet? How much will our family pay then?"

Xu Yin washed the horseshoes and sat under the eaves to peel them.

The first crop of horseshoe is fresh and sweet, and I plan to have a horseshoe feast at noon today: stir-fried horseshoe with black fungus, steamed meat pie with water chestnut mushroom, radish and horseshoe keel soup.

The meat and bones were bought by the men from the town early in the morning.

In the past six months, seeing her getting thinner every day, he thought she had some kind of disease, so he took her to see a doctor in the hospital. The doctor said that he was in good health, so he was relieved, but he still tried every means to nourish her.

There are meat, vegetarian and soup, perfect!

The staple food is to make horseshoe cakes with mixed grains. After the meal, a bowl of white fungus, red dates and horseshoe sweet soup will relieve the greasy and nourishing.

After Cui Mengjin sawed the last bamboo, he tidied up the bamboo strips and tied them together, and he could go to tie the fence in the afternoon.

After tidying up the yard, he washed his hands and came over to help peel the horseshoe.

"It's up to you to make up your own mind about this matter. I heard from the third child that the shopkeeper of the Zhizha shop wanted to find a wife for his daughter, but the mother did not agree with the second brother's marriage. I am afraid there will be trouble with this matter."

"Mother agrees!"

It was Cui Jikang who answered the call.

He came back from the mountain with a bundle on his shoulder and a bamboo basket in his hand. When he saw Xu Yin, he raised the bamboo basket excitedly, and said in an excited tone:

"Sister-in-law, I found the little thorn ball you wanted! Is it this?"

He heard from Goudan that his sister-in-law had been looking for a kind of small thorn balls that were covered with thorns and were easy to stick to clothes and hair.

Small spike ball?
Xu Yin didn't remember it all at once.

Until I saw the things in the bamboo basket clearly, ah!castor bean!

Her eyes lit up instantly: "Where did you find it?"

"Beside the mountain stream ditch, there's a big clump, but there are thorns growing outside, so you can't see it at first glance. I found it after chasing a hare." Speaking of this, Cui Jikang lowered his face, "It's a pity that the hare slipped too far." Quick, no catch."

"Hahaha! It's okay, it's okay, next time sister-in-law catches a hare, I will make up for you!"

Xu Yin praised him and wanted to keep him for dinner, but he insisted on going back and didn't force him to stay.

He poured out the castor beans from the bamboo basket, filled him with three or four catties of horseshoes, put six salted duck eggs on the horseshoes, and chopped pork ribs in a paper bag.

"Sister-in-law, are these small thorn balls enough? Not enough. I will go up the mountain tomorrow to pick them."

Seeing that there are eggs and meat, the boy is a little embarrassed.

After the spring plowing, there is relatively little work in the field. He has time to go up the mountain every day, and the big deal is to help his sister-in-law pick more prickly balls.

"No, I'll transplant the castor-bean tree later, so as not to run back and forth."

"Then I'll take you there, that place is a bit out of the way."

"it is good."

Cui Jikang greeted his eldest brother and went home excitedly.

Cui Mengjin saw that she was so happy surrounded by a bunch of small thorn balls, and asked curiously: "What's the use of this thing?"

"Very useful!"

Castor bean itself is a traditional Chinese medicinal material for reducing swelling and detoxification. Secondly, because of its high oil content, it is a good material for base fertilizer.

However, before fertilization, the castor beans without the thorns need to be fried like melon seeds, cooled, ground into powder, and spread evenly in the soil like plant ash.Castor beans are used as base fertilizer, and the fertilizer effect is no worse than that of rapeseed cake residue.

After lunch, Cui Mengjin went to several dangerous embankments of the lotus pond to build fences. Xu Yin spread the castor beans in the yard, and the skin was dry and cracked, and the seeds inside could be taken out without hard peeling.

While busy, Li Zheng came over again.

He discussed with the clan elders and decided to build a collective lotus pond.

"Meng Jin's daughter-in-law, I think what you said at noon is very reasonable, we decided to follow what you said. Regarding work points, and what kind of dividends are there, can you be more specific?"

Xu Yin: "..."

Is she the collective economic advisor of Chengdawa Village?

"Sit down and chat." Xu Yin brought Comrade Xiaojin's reclining chair out and sat in it. Then she went to the kitchen to make a pot of dandelion tea, grabbed two handfuls of fried melon seeds and peanuts during the Chinese New Year, and After washing a plate of horseshoes and peeling them for fruit, they sat down and chatted with Li Zheng over tea.

Li Zheng couldn't help but sigh: There is probably no other person in the village who is as particular as Meng Jin's wife. She just said a few words, served tea and snacks, and let him lean on the recliner to loosen his muscles and bones and feel comfortable. !

Since Dawa Village really decided to build a collective lotus pond, Xu Yin listed all the items related to lotus root and ducks.

"However, at the beginning, let's not spread everything all at once. We first pick two safe ones, such as lotus root flour processing workshop and salted duck egg pickling workshop. The rest can be added later."

Li Zheng listened and nodded: "Yes, yes, it's more important to be safe."

"It's just that it's late spring, so it's probably too late to plant lotus roots this year." Xu Yin mused, "But you can raise ducks first, and the ducklings will grow bigger just in time for weeding and weeding the rice fields. Let's look at the harvest of my lotus pond this year. If it’s good, I’ll save some for the village to plant. Next spring, I’ll pick a lake for trial planting, and I’ll go through how to sell and make lotus root flour. When it’s ready, I’ll be able to do it in earnest the next year!”

"It makes sense and makes sense!"

"This is how I think about work points. Roughly divide the positions according to the type of work required. For example, raising ducks, there are jobs such as driving ducks, cleaning duck houses, feeding ducks, and picking eggs in the later stage. These jobs can be divided among different people. , everyone has a little bit, and full work points will be given if the work is done well. If it is completed but the effect will be discounted, then the work points will be determined according to the situation. Unified settlement."

"Dividends are the money earned after selling ducks or duck eggs at the end of the year, and will be settled to the big guy according to the amount of work points."

"and also……"

Li was remembering everything Xu Yin said in his mind, but he was worried that he would remember it today and forget it tomorrow, so when he got home, he took out his treasured Four Treasures of the Study, and copied a copy while recalling it.
