Make a fortune by farming: The sweetheart of the first assistant family

After Huo Tianxiang entered the room, he saw Zheng's mother lying on the hospital bed. Her face was pale but her eyes were bright, and she was covered with a patched blanket.

There were long-term bedridden patients in the room, but Huo Tianxiang didn't smell any bad smell. It was refreshing and clean, which was enough to show that she was well cared for.

Huo Tianxiang's favorability towards Zheng Shaoxuan gradually increased, and filial piety came first. Zheng's mother, who had been ill for several years, still received such good care, showed how much Zheng Shaoxuan and Lin Xiaocao cared about her.

Zheng Shaoxuan's family tradition can be seen. Huo Tianxiang's last hesitation disappeared and he smiled and explained his purpose:

"How many years have I grown, so I have the effrontery to call you a big sister. Zheng Shulang and my Chao'er are classmates. Although they didn't go to the same school, my Chao'er said that Zheng Shulang's knowledge far exceeds that of the teachers in the school in our village..."

Zheng's mother had been bedridden for many years and had not heard positive comments about Zheng Shaoxuan from outsiders for a long time. When she heard Huo Tianxiang praising his son, she smiled and shed tears.

These are tears of joy, tears of joy.

While shedding tears, Zheng's mother swore a poisonous oath: "My benefactor, when Shaoxuan's father was still alive, Shaoxuan was admitted as a child student. Everyone said that Shaoxuan was a child prodigy. Not long after his father left, a landlord named Zhou came. My family... my benefactor, Shaoxuan has never stolen any property from the Zhou family! If I say anything false, I will be struck by lightning and die!"

When Huo Tianxiang heard this oath, he hurriedly said: "You can't do it, you can't do it! I naturally trust Zheng Shulang's character, otherwise why would I send my second son Ze'er to become a disciple of Zheng Shulang? Sister, these unpleasant words will not be tolerated in the future. Stop talking. People who trust you will do it even if you don't say a word

I believe you. If people don't believe you, you will risk your life to prove your ambition, and they still won't believe you. "

Hearing Huo Tianxiang's words, Lin Xiaocao could no longer suppress the excitement in his heart, and cried while complaining: "Thank you so much, my benefactor! My husband often says that he is upright and not afraid of the shadow, but those people always say they believe it on the surface, but secretly I always say that my husband’s hands and feet are not clean. Sometimes I think about it. Landlord Zhou’s family is extremely rich. If my husband’s hands and feet are really dirty, the things he stole from landlord Zhou’s house will be enough for us to live for most of our lives. Our family’s life will not be so miserable. .”

Huo Tianxiang comforted him again: "Zheng Shulang has a good character and knows how to repay his kindness. We believe what we see with our own eyes and do not believe those nonsense rumors."

Mother Zheng had not heard such a fair evaluation for a long time. She was moved and grateful. She was touched by the strong support of the Huo family. Fortunately, when she stepped into the coffin with half a foot, she was thinking about her son and daughter-in-law and managed to survive.

If she died so easily, her family, Shaoxuan and Xiaocao, would blame themselves for not taking good care of her.

Mother Zheng said: "My benefactor, my Shaoxuan is known as a child prodigy. His calligraphy and articles were praised by the imperial concubine in the county school, but he just missed the chance to be a scholar. My Shaoxuan is qualified to be a master. , and will also teach with heart.”

Lin Xiaocao nodded in agreement: "My husband is very serious about everything he does. He never makes a promise lightly, and he will definitely keep it when he says it."

The atmosphere in the room became warm, people felt refreshed during happy events, and Mother Zheng's complexion became rosy.

Listening to his mother's laughter and his wife's praise, Zheng Shaoxuan rubbed his face vigorously with his right hand.

The life-saving ginseng tablets were obtained in exchange for the reward for this book.

On the way back, Zheng Shaoxuan was worried about how to explain to his mother and daughter-in-law that the money he received was 70% less than expected.

Ever since Landlord Zhou publicized his theft of the Zhou family's property, Zheng Shaoxuan deliberately concealed Master Zhou's pursuit of him and killed him.

Zheng Shaoxuan never believed in "reincarnation of past and present lives", but he relied on Huo Yunchao to change the outcome of his recent crises.

Could Huo Yunchao be the "destined nobleman" mentioned by the blind master?

Huo Yunchao, who was being thanked by Zheng Shaoxuan, sneezed five times in a row. Xu Ning stopped and said, "Huo Yunchao, what's wrong with you? What's wrong with you? Is it because of pollen?"

"Maybe someone was scolding me. It's just a few sneezes, it's not a big problem."

Huo Yunchao's main purpose of entering the mountain was to look for limestone. He glanced around and found that the limestone he was looking for was ten meters ahead.

"Ning Niang, I found the stones I need! These stones are calcined at high temperature into white powder, which is the quicklime I want. Quicklime can kill insects and fertilize the land, but it is too time-consuming and laborious to bake. Like this Large pieces of limestone will need to be burned for at least seven days.”

The original lime production process is to lay limestone and fuel (wood) in layers, then ignite fire and calcine for a week.

Xu Ninghun said nonchalantly: "Smash these stones into small pieces, and the time for firing them into white powder can be reduced by half."

She didn't think this was a problem at all. The stone was too big to be calcined, so just smash it and burn it. It wouldn't be a big problem.

Huo Yunchao was originally worried that the calcination time would be too long and too tiring. When he heard Xu Ning's solution, he grinned and said, "Oh, Ning Niang."

, the method you came up with is very good! I always think about calcining a large stone at high temperature for seven days in a row. How tiring that would be. "

The last time he made bone glue, Huo Yunchao worked all night, and he was almost dead from exhaustion. After catching up on a whole day's sleep, he was still weak and it was difficult to regain his energy and energy.

Xu Ning didn't think she was very smart, so she pointed to the limestone on the ground and asked: "Are these stones enough to fill a basket? If not, you can wait at the foot of the mountain tomorrow with a wheelbarrow, and I will carry a few more loads down the mountain."

Different from Huo Yunchao's "paper-talking" way of thinking, Xu Ning's thinking is more inclined to practical operations - is there a problem? where is the problem? How can I solve this problem?

Huo Yunchao gradually adapted to Xu Ning's way of thinking. He rubbed his chin and thought about the problem: "I have to first think about where to build a stove to calcine the lime. Even if the stone is smashed into small stones, it will take three days, which means it will take three days. Got lots and lots of firewood..."

Xu Ning quickly gave a solution: "I can grind these big stones into stone powder, and use the stone powder to bake lime. Can I save half the time?"

She is born with supernatural powers, and she can not only smash them into small stones, but also grind them into stone powder!

Huo Yunchao has never done it in practice. "Ning Niang, I think the method you mentioned is feasible. Let's go back and try it!"

Xu Ning added: "My house is close to the mountains, and no one usually comes here. Why not set up a stove in front of my house and burn it. As for the firewood for burning lime, I have saved a lot of large and small firewood, enough to keep burning for a month."

Huo Yunchao smiled and said: "Ning Niang, I listen to you. After the quicklime is burned, we spread it in the pig pen to kill insects, and then hug the pigs.

When the piglets are raised, the piglets will not get sick easily. "

Xu Ning thought of the old hens that were hatching eggs at home and drew inferences from one example: "If quicklime is sprinkled in the chicken coop, can it also kill insects?"
