Farmer sister: Escape from wilderness and farm with Lingquan space

The general's wife nodded: "Well, after the New Year, let's go visit again and meet Mrs. Qiao. Miss Qiao is so smart and kind, and she teaches her well. We should be very grateful."

The general nodded slightly: "I was indeed reckless this time! I only remembered the tent, hot pot and smokeless charcoal, and eagerly wanted to go back early and study it carefully, but I lost etiquette."

Fortunately, the gifts they gave this time were quite thoughtful. They bought almost everything they needed for the New Year, and also gave each of the little ones a piece of gold jewelry.

As for Miss Qiao's share, she declined.

However, if we can reach an agreement on purchasing smokeless charcoal with Miss Qiao, we will have many opportunities to move around in the future, so there is no need to worry.

But he said Qingshui Village.

At noon, when Chen Huiniang returned to the tent to make lunch, she heard that the general and his wife who had saved her daughter had arrived, but they didn't react much.

Anyway, my daughter is awesome!

In the past, I was rewarded with a lot of money for saving Mr. Mo's life. When I arrived in the capital, I was even greeted by the housekeeper of Mr. Mo's family and the shopkeeper of his restaurant to give him gifts.

It is normal for your daughter to come to thank you personally for saving the general's precious daughter.

If someone saved her daughter's life, she would be willing to take her life, let alone come to thank her in person!

In the evening, the people who had finished work early because it was New Year's Eve and had been working for a day in the valley were tired but satisfied when they returned to the camp. When they saw the supplies sent by the general, they were all happy. flower.

The old village chief distributed the things. Of course, the Qiao family had the most supplies. They had to satisfy the Qiao family first, and then the rest could be distributed to the villagers. After all, these were given to Qiao Ran and the Qiao family. of.

Qiao Ran asked her mother and third aunt to pick out some of everything, and divided up the remaining supplies.

Suddenly, these poor refugees who had traveled thousands of miles to escape famine and were sent to such a remote and desolate mountain were difficult to find. To outsiders, these poor refugees should have suffered from hunger, lack of clothes, and unkempt appearance.

Now, like the rich people in the city, they can have a wonderful New Year's Eve dinner with meat, vegetables and soup. The adults gather around the charcoal pot to roast themselves, eat peanuts and melon seeds, and nibble on candied melons and fruits in a relaxed and relaxed manner. Chatting.

The children couldn't help but call their friends and ran outside to set off fireworks.

In order not to accidentally shoot the fireworks onto the tent and cause trouble, they even went to the grassland by the creek not far away to set them off.

The capital city, where dignitaries and nobles gathered, was already buzzing with firecrackers and brilliant fireworks.

It's a pity that they live in this mountain col, and their sight is blocked by high mountains.

You can only see the sky in the direction of the capital shining brightly from time to time, but you can't see the bustling and lively scene created by the wealthy families and dignitaries in the capital with countless money.

However, in this small mountain valley, these simple villagers who had never set off fireworks in person experienced for the first time the joy of the rich during the New Year.

These poor farmers who have been cultivating the land all their lives and now have to reclaim wasteland for farming do not complain about others, but cherish everything they have. In this small world, they have happiness that they can only feel.

Qiao Ran, who had just finished her meal, stood up to help her mother and third aunt clear the dishes, but she was grabbed by her clothes by her younger brothers and sisters who had been waiting for a long time.

"Sister, I want to set off firecrackers, but I'm a little scared. Can you take me there?"

"Eldest sister! Eldest sister! Let's set off fireworks! Eldest sister will take us there!"

"Sister, Yue'er also wants to set off fireworks!"

Both sides of Qiao Ran's clothes were grabbed by the little guys' hands. Seeing this, Chen Huiniang smiled and said:

"Okay, Ranran, I don't need your help here. Let's go play with your brothers and sisters!"

Lin Guizhen also smiled and said: "Sister-in-law Qin and I are here. Go and help the younger brothers and sisters! Please keep an eye on the younger ones."

Qiao Ran was helplessly dragged to set off fireworks, thinking that she, a person with a mental age of 20, had to play with a group of little carrots.

But she was also curious about what the fireworks of this era were like, and whether they were as exciting as those of later generations.

She found two small wooden sticks, lit them in the charcoal basin, and then led a group of little guys to the open space with the wooden sticks in hand.

The Qiao family had the most fireworks and firecrackers. When the other children in the village saw them coming, they all gathered around happily.

Fireworks in ancient times were packed with bamboo and wooden tubes of different shapes. After being ignited, they quickly shot up into the sky and exploded in the air, showing their short-lived but very bright beauty.

Qiao Ran discovered that these ancient fireworks were not inferior to the various shapes of fireworks of later generations.

The only shortcoming is that there are not as many shapes as later generations, and there are various fonts.

However, it was a rare thing to see such brilliant fireworks in ancient times.

At this time, the people who were eating melon seeds and chatting in the tent also came out one after another and stood at the door of the tent, looking up at the brilliant fireworks in the sky.

It was the first time that they saw such beautiful fireworks at such a close distance. They couldn't bear to blink for fear of missing any of the more beautiful fireworks.

In the capital city, the people were dazzled by the fireworks set off by the palace and the government. No one noticed that there was a group of people excited about these small fireworks in this small mountain valley far away from the capital city.

The excitement and hustle and bustle will eventually pass. Early the next morning, the rich people in the city continue to party, go shopping, drink and hold poetry parties, visit relatives and friends to celebrate the New Year, while in the poor families, in order to save charcoal and food, the whole family huddles on the kang. Cat winter time.

However, the people of Qingshui Village have put aside the leisure and relaxation of last night. Wearing coarse cloth clothes and leather jackets that are resistant to stains and fabrics, carrying hoes, shovels, axes, and sledgehammers, they entered the valley early in the morning and were busy clearing wasteland.

This is the first day of the Lunar New Year, which is the beginning of a new year.

The plan for a day lies in the morning, and the plan for a year lies in the spring.

Seeing that the day of spring sowing is getting closer, they have not built houses, cleared wasteland, built canals, or bought grain seeds yet...

Time is so tight and every day counts.

If you miss the best spring sowing days, everything will be different.

Even a few days' delay may lead to a reduction in grain production, which is absolutely intolerable for farmers.

Qiao Ran also went to the valley early today. She still wanted to explore the situation on the other side of the sky.

As a member of a special organization, I have developed a good habit of knowing the surrounding environment clearly when I go to a strange place.

It was about to open a canal to divert water for farming in Devil's Valley. She had to know where the source of this water flow was and whether it could ensure future drinking and irrigation for the people of Qingshui Village.
