Parents are busy farming

Ye Zifen had breakfast and was about to go out. When the door opened, she saw Zhang Gaoyi waiting for her.

"Why are you here? Why don't you sleep a little longer?" Zi Zifen asked.

Zhang Gaoyi raised the corner of his mouth and said, "I won't sleep anymore. I'm not used to it. I know you're going to Zhuangzi, so I'll go with you."

When Zi Zifen heard the word 'together', her heart suddenly warmed up.

"Okay! We need to go to the county first, find the pawn shop owner, and ask him to take us with him." Ye Zifen explained.

Zhang Gaoyi nodded, and then the two began to set off.

On the way, Ye Zifen told him what happened these days and what he was busy with every day.

"So the food delivery agency is doing very well now?" Zhang Gaoyi asked.

Zi Zifen said: "It's not bad! I ordered the trolley and the food box from your brother-in-law, and asked Mrs. Feng and Aunt Qi to sew the cotton mat for the inside of the food box. It will be better when it is done."

Zhang Gaoyi immediately said: "Well! I already know it. But you did a good job of letting the tenant farmers dig ponds and rivers!"

Ye Zifen was very happy to get Zhang Gaoyi's support.

He said proudly: "That's right! The problem has been solved fundamentally. I also asked people in our village to collect food! When my father is free, he will organize people to go there. By then we will have enough food to transport to the sea. .”

Zhang Gaoyi knew that she would always prepare for a rainy day. To say that the caravan could reach this point was just a whimsical idea of ​​his, but she was implementing and perfecting it step by step.

There is a kind of feeling that may be unconditional support!

As soon as the pawn shop opened, Ye Zifen came to the door. Pang Chao would come to the pawn shop before going to Fuke Lai every day.

Seeing Ye Zifen coming in, he immediately complained: "Here comes my man again."

"I'm not satisfied without using you. Don't worry, I'll try my best not to use you before Wan'er gives birth." Ye Zifen gave him reassurance.

Pang Chao nodded repeatedly after hearing this, "You still have a conscience, shopkeeper, just follow me! If anything happens, the guy will come to Fuke to find me."

"Okay! Boss, then Miss Ye Wu and I are leaving." The shopkeeper walked out of the counter and said to Pang Chao.

Pang Chao waved his hand and left the pawn shop himself, going to Fuke Lai.

The shopkeeper set off with Ye Zifen and Zhang Gaoyi.

The temperature dropped last night, causing the wheat seedlings in the wheat fields to turn dark green. Ye Zifen felt the coldness in the air and shivered.

Zhang Gaoyi was about to take off his robe, but was stopped by Ye Zifen.

"I sweated a little while walking just now. It's nothing. It will be fine in a while. You can dress yourself."

The cold wind blew through the corners of my eyes, making me feel refreshed and comfortable, but my ears were a little cold.

This Zhuangzi is the farthest from the county seat, and it took two hours of horse-drawn carriage to arrive.

Ye Zifen said with a smile: "It seems that I can't go back today."

The shopkeeper also smiled and invited Ye Zifen into the village to have a cup of hot water.

The steward of this village is called Zhao Youde.

His voice was a little loud when he spoke to her, probably because he was old and a little hard of hearing.

Behind him are his wife and daughter, and the doorkeeper is her son-in-law, who looks honest and courteous.

The daughter's name is Zhao Cuier, and the son-in-law's name is Zhou Dalin.

"Miss, all the grain in our village last season was sold by the previous owner, leaving only enough food for the few people in the village." The steward reported quickly.

Ye Zifen nodded and asked, "Does Zhuangzi only rely on growing grain every year?"

The housekeeper quickly said: "No, because our village is close to the mountains, there are more wild fruits on the mountains. My old lady will make some preserved fruits, and every year she will send fruits and preserved fruits to the county grocery store for sale."

Hearing this, Ye Zifen suddenly thought of the preserved fruits in the grocery store. They tasted really good and were sold very well.

Nodding with satisfaction, just for this reason, she would keep him as the manager here.

At this time, his daughter brought tea to several people, "It's a bit cold today, you must have suffered on the road! Hurry up and drink a cup of hot tea to warm up. This water is the spring water on our mountain! It's cool and sweet, and the tea is brewed It tastes good too.”

Upon hearing this, Ye Zifen immediately took a sip from the tea cup, and the tea was indeed fragrant.

"Is the spring on the mountain in our village?" Zi Zifen asked.

The girl replied: "Yes, it's right behind our village. It's just over two hills."

Ye Zifen's body was already warm, and she smiled and said, "Let's go, take me to see it."

"Okay!" Zhao Cuier agreed with a smile.

Because this Zhuangzi is backed by a mountain, the walls were built very high, thick, and strong enough.

It is probably to prevent wild animals from the mountain from descending from the mountain and attacking people.

Zhang Gaoyi followed, and Zhou Dalin held a machete.

Ye Zifen looked at him in front of Zhao Cuier and admired the old steward's vision of people.

Although Zhou Dalin is honest, he is really kind to Zhao Cuier.

When entering the mountains, he always walked at the front, fearing that his wife would fall or be attacked by something.

Through Zhao Cui'er's introduction, Ye Zifen learned that the mountain here and the mountain behind Lujia Village belong to the same mountain body.

There are three hills on my property deed, but they are not very high.

This made Ye Zifen very interested. Looking at the thorns on the mountain and the pheasants flying everywhere, Ye Zifen frowned unconsciously.

Looking at the soil under my feet, the soil coverage is pretty good.

Zhang Gaoyi saw the change in Ye Zifen's expression and knew that she had another idea.

However, Ye Zifen didn't say anything at that time, but followed Zhao Cuier and his wife to continue walking inside to see the mountain spring.

When they came to the mountain spring, a group of pheasants were drinking water. He and Zhang Gaoyi looked at each other, and each of them grabbed a stone in his hand and signaled Zhao Cuier and Zhou Dalin to be silent.

Then the two of them quickly threw the stones in their hands.

Soon the group of pheasants dispersed, leaving only a few pheasants that had collapsed on the spot.

Ye Zifen said with a smile: "Okay! Let's go and have a look!"

Then the four of them came to the spring together.

At this time, there was a small spring, and the water flow was not very large. It would take a quarter of an hour to fill a wooden barrel.

They just happened to bring a wooden barrel over, put the wood in the puddle, and supported it with rocks to prevent it from falling over.

Zhao Cuier said: "Miss, let me take you to see the wild fruit trees in the mountains! There are many of them! When the wild fruits mature, we will have to compete with the hares, pheasants and wild boars in the mountains for the fruits."

Ye Zifen immediately followed Zhao Cuier's footsteps, she also wanted to take a look inside.

Zhang Gaoyi's expression became tense when he heard about the wild boar. Although he knew that Ye Zifen had medicine on him, he still did not dare to take it lightly.

Fortunately, we didn't see any large beasts along the way.

Zhao Cuier said with a smile: "There are no more mountain fruits now, and those wild beasts will naturally not appear again."

Ye Zifen discovered that there were many saplings under those mountain fruit trees. Thinking of the two low mountains behind Zhuangzi, she suddenly had an idea.

If these wild fruit tree saplings are transplanted to those two mountains and managed carefully, then...
