No matter if you are a human or an immortal, you can still farm for me after traveling through time!
Chapter 55 Planting garlic! ! It's thunderstorm! !
In the afternoon, Li Erlang and two boys carried garlic seeds to the fields. The fields had already been treated. The weeds were cleared by three children. The ridges were sorted out by Li Aweng. Li Aniang and Xu Qing took some manure. Mix it into the soil to make it less lean when planted.
Not only the Li family came to watch, but also everyone else in the village came.
Seeing Li Erlang moving several rattan baskets of garlic seeds, the onlookers couldn't help but feel envious. Why couldn't they seize this opportunity? It would be great if they also kept the garlic seeds, so that they could follow Li Erlang and catch up with Manager Zhang.
Money can't buy it, I already knew it.
Li Erlang instructed the two men to dig holes in the ridges, controlling the distance and size, and then put the garlic cloves into the holes with their heads facing up.
At this time, I have to sigh again. The garlic grown by Ji Qingyue is very good. They are all "broad-shouldered and round-waisted." There are very few stunted ones that can be picked out.
One person digs the hole, one sows the garlic, one covers the soil, and the rest carries water. As soon as the garlic seeds are buried in the ground, they must be watered enough at once to allow them to germinate.
They deliberately chose a piece of wasteland close to the canal. Even if they wanted to get close, they still had to walk a certain distance, otherwise the land would be deserted.
Several people worked until the sun went down, and finally watered half an acre of land. The crowd of onlookers had already dispersed, leaving only the Li family gathering tools.
One of the two waiters did not leave. He gathered up his cloak and carried Li Aniang to prepare pancakes and water bags.
Tonight he will remain in the ground.
Manager Zhang came over and asked Li Erlang to plant the garlic as soon as possible before the end of April. The necessary guarantees had not yet been put in place.
When you possess a secret treasure, how do you prevent others from peeking and obstructing you?
Suppression alone will definitely not work. Of course, we need to use both kindness and force.
Taking action against the biggest mastermind of the evil will naturally scare the little shrimps below.
The two men left behind by Manager Zhang not only looked like experts in farming as he said, but they rolled up their sleeves to reveal their bulging muscles. They looked more like agile thugs.
Of course, Li Erlang had no objection. After leaving another wind lantern for him, he turned around and went home with the others.
In the painting, Ji Qingyue has been depressed for a long time. Although the cotton tree is getting bigger and bigger, with more and more branches, the leaves are still dying, yellowing and drooping, which is abnormal.
He checked the remaining five seeds over and over. The seeds were wrapped in a layer of white velvet, and inside were black hard-skinned seeds. If you didn't look carefully, you might be mistaken for moldy rat droppings.
Li Erlang said at the beginning that the reason why cotton is difficult to grow is that it is easy to get sick, the leaves dry up and appear spots, etc.
If there were no accidents, his cotton plant would have been sick. It only relied on the magical land to "survive" to such a big size.
If there are no chemicals at this time, how can we reduce the incidence of cottonseed?
According to the habits of cotton, it likes warmth and sunshine...
He could only use the old method - the listing method, listing all the ways he could think of to deal with seeds to find a more suitable planting method.
Direct sowing is no longer possible. It is the same principle as soaking wheat seeds. Only good seeds can grow up smoothly and produce good fruits.
In addition to soaking seeds, he also knows about drying seeds. For seeds that have been stored for a long time, they must be dried before sowing to remind the seeds that "it's time to wake up."
Humidity is sufficient, and now cotton does not need to be soaked to replenish moisture. Then apart from drying, the only remaining method is to remove the lint.
He took out two of the seeds and pulled off the outer fluff to reveal the black cotton seeds inside. After the other seeds were dried, he sowed them at the same time. As for the sick cotton tree, he had no choice but to uproot it and throw it into the furnace for destruction.
Because of the arrival of outsiders, the Li family restrained themselves a little, and Li Erlang no longer took out the vegetables grown by Ji Qingyue carelessly. During the day, Li Erlang and Li Silang would only go to the study room to study at night, and sometimes there would be more The previous Li Yu.
Just as Li Erlang expected, when they took turns to keep watch, someone came over sneakily, but when they found someone guarding the field, they disappeared in a hurry.
When the night watchman found someone, he did not chase them out. He just wrote down the direction in which these people escaped and reported it to Manager Zhang.
Li Erlang discussed with the two men that if the people who came were the men sent by Hu Shang, they would definitely not retreat so easily. Taking advantage of the night and when there was only one person in the field, they would often wreak havoc and be especially rampant. .
And whether it was before or after, as long as Hu Shang took action, they should receive news from Manager Zhang.
But it didn't.
The visitors were so cautious and looked more like ordinary villagers who wanted to come over to cause trouble. If they were willing to retreat, Li Erlang would no longer care.
Li Erlang and two other men took turns guarding the garlic fields. After seven days, green shoot tips finally appeared on the ridges.
In the evening of this day, the sky darkened early, for no other reason than dark clouds rolled in. The thunderous roar followed the footsteps of the dark clouds, making the earth tremble.
Lightning was accompanied by sharp thunder, as if a hole had been drilled in the sky, and heavy rain poured down.
Before the heavy rain hit, Li Erlang and his crew dug several water outlets on the ridges of the fields so that the rainwater entering the fields could have a place to flow out, so that it would not accumulate in the fields.
By the time they rushed home, they were already soaked by the heavy rain.
The rain was so heavy that the whole world was filled with the sound of rain and thunder. People had to raise their voices when speaking, otherwise they would be covered by the sound of thunder and rain.
This rain came just in time for Li Erlang.
The garlic in the ground has just sprouted and is in need of water. The rain allowed them to fetch water one less time, allowing the garlic to have enough water to grow green seedlings.
It was also raining heavily in the painting. After Ji Qingyue checked the thatched cottage and made sure that there was no leakage, he sat in the thatched cottage and watched the rain scene.
Roaring thunder echoed in the mountains, the stream swelled, and many fish fled upstream along the current.
Ji Qingyue didn't care when he saw it.
When he wasn't paying attention, the big fish laid eggs, and the eggs hatched into small fish. When he noticed it again, the stream was full of fish!
The mole on the palm of my hand has turned red for several days. Because of the presence of outsiders, I never found a chance to get out.
After staying in the painting for so long, if you think about it, another three or four months will be enough for a year. Looking back, it still feels like a dream, as if it was yesterday.
The wheat planted in the fields during the split time has grown vigorously, the rice in the field has slowly grown taller, and even the cotton seedlings that were planted just five days ago are growing better than the first time.
After using two batches of seeds treated with different methods, the seedlings that grew out finally stopped looking wilted.
Overnight, the cotton sprouts grew. When Ji Qing took a closer look, he saw that they were tender yellow. He felt a little incredible. After two days, the cotton sprouts turned green, and he finally felt relieved.
Both methods of drying seeds and tearing off the outer layer of fluff are feasible, but if you have to compare, tearing off the outer layer of fluff is better, but if the number of seeds is large, drying seeds is easier.
At this time, Li Erlang and the others had turned off the lights and gone to bed early, and it seemed that only Ji Qingyue was still awake at home.
He didn't light a lamp, just sitting in the thatched hut listening to the white noise of the thunderstorm.
Although it is beyond the level suitable for falling asleep, when I listen to it when I am awake, my mood gradually becomes more comfortable, and I am not so depressed about not being able to go out.
On the other side of the village, the dilapidated mud houses could no longer withstand such ferocious rain. The inside of the house was the same as the outside, like a water curtain cave, with no dry place.
The rain not only wetted the bed and bedding, but also wetted the food and firewood.
Li Yu looked desperately at the roof full of holes, feeling despair. His whole body was already soaked. One second he wiped the water off his face, and the next second his eyes were blinded by the rain.
Where can he go to hide from the rain?
Li Yu wiped his face in vain, climbed off the bed, and stepped into the water. The rainwater came down from the roof and was blocked by the threshold, so it started to rise in the room.
How funny.
He took nothing and went straight into the rain curtain, heading in the direction he was most familiar with.
The heavy rain, together with the darkness, covered the small figure.
When he saw the darkness in Li Silang's home through the crack in the door, his heart seemed to darken.
He didn't want it to rain at all. Rain was good for the crops, but not good for him at all.
The bed will get wet, the stove will get wet, the clothes will get wet, everything will get wet...
Li Yu sat down expressionlessly against the courtyard door of Li Silang's house, but the courtyard door was just a wall and had no protection from wind and rain.
But for him now, it's the same everywhere.
Ji Qingyue sat in the thatched cottage, listening to the sound of rain, and fell asleep while listening!
When I woke up from the cold, I didn't know what time it was at night. It was still raining, but compared with the pattering in the evening, it was now dripping, and the rain had indeed become lighter.
The thunder is far away, but it won't suddenly explode and startle people.
He had no way to go out before, but now he had the chance to go out, but he was passively locked in the painting. Ji Qingyue had long protested in his heart about not being able to go out.
Although there is nothing interesting in Li Erlang's home, he is very happy to go out when he thinks that the ordinary world is outside.
After thinking about it, he did.
Ji Qingyue walked through the open space, walked onto the bridge, crossed the barrier and came to the study.
Different from the fresh water vapor in the painting, there is an extra scent of ink in the house.
He suddenly remembered that there was a travel diary copied by Li Sanlang on the bookshelf. He had only read half of it last time. It mentioned the scenery of various places in Dali and the local customs and customs, which was very helpful for him to understand this era.
He just forgot to bring the oil lamp when he came out, so Ji Qingyue jumped back into the painting and took out the lamp.
Because the Li family is very worried about Ji Qingyue, and the two guys sleep in the utility room in the distant backyard. The utility room has no windows and the door is closed when it rains. They will not go to the yard if nothing happens. As long as Ji Qingyue If he didn't make a big noise, he wouldn't be discovered, so he dared to light the oil lamp carelessly.
Ji Qing rummaged through the bookshelf and finally found the travelogue he hadn't finished reading last time.
Just as he was turning the wick of the oil lamp brighter and opening the book, a faint sob came from somewhere.
Ji Qingyue trembled and quickly looked at the painting on the wall. Could there be someone in the painting?
He stood up and strained his ears to identify where the crying was coming from.
They are twitching and matching, like children.
He opened the study door and listened carefully for a while, as if the sound was coming from outside the courtyard door.
Who stayed up late at night and sat outside their courtyard gate crying?
Ji Qingyue shook his head, looking helpless.
The person outside the door could only be Li Yu.
But he promised Li Aweng not to go out, so of course he couldn't come forward to meet an outsider.
He thought for a while and walked across the yard to the wing opposite the study. The room on the right is the room of the third brother Li Erlang. At this time, Erlang and Shilang were sleeping soundly.
Push open a wing door and a door to Li Erlang's room. The sounds made by the two doors are different. Open the outer door first and then the inner door. Anyone can hear someone coming in from the outside. This may Xu Qing was alarmed in the room on the left.
It's not good to scare a girl in the middle of the night.
Ji Qingyue gave up and went in through the door.
When God closes two doors, he also closes the window, and that means right now.
Because of the heavy rain, they even put down the weatherboard, and there was a window covered with window paper behind the weatherboard.
Ji Qingyue covered his face in depression.
It was raining, and the child was crying alone outside again.
Sure enough, it reminds me of the miserable situation I was in.
Ji Qingyue made a fist with one hand and gently punched the palm of the other hand.
Have it.
He hurriedly ran back to the painting, went back to the room to get a clean towel, took a few cakes from the kitchen, and mixed some warm water with a thermos cup. Finally, he found the raincoat Li Erlang wore in the evening from the yard outside, rolled up. Bajuanba stuffed everything into a rattan basket and used rattan to hang it down from the wall next to the courtyard door.
Then, Li Yu suddenly saw a rattan basket being pushed out of the courtyard and slowly descending along the courtyard wall, held by the rattan.
He subconsciously went to pick up the rattan basket. The person inside seemed to feel that the weight in his hands became lighter, so he let go of the rattan, and the rattan basket was held firmly in Li Yu's arms.
"Knock, knock—" Someone knocked lightly on the courtyard door behind Li Yu from the inside, and then he heard an unfamiliar voice whisper: "Return the things to Erlang tomorrow."
Then the voice disappeared, leaving Li Yu leaning against the courtyard door with a dull expression on his face. He didn't know whether it was because he was wet from the rain or because he was sweating from fear.
He lowered his head to look at the rattan basket in his arms. Inside there was a large coir raincoat, a dry cloth towel, two biscuits and a strange jar. He shook it, and there seemed to be water in it?
Touching the only dry cloth in his hand, Li Yu's eyes were wet again, not from the rain, but from warm tears, leaving two warm water marks on his face.
He put on his raincoat and wiped his head and hands with a cloth before he reverently picked up the strange jug. As expected, he couldn't open it.
He didn't dare to use any force for fear of breaking it.
Suddenly, the unfamiliar voice came from behind the door again, softly: "I forgot to tell you, you have to hold the upper and lower ends of the water glass like you would twist clothes, twist the lid and it will loosen, and then there is a button inside , press it once and the water will pour out, press it twice and it will close. The water is a bit hot, so drink slowly."
Before Li Yu could answer, the footsteps inside left.
Following the guidance of the voice, he successfully opened the lid and pressed the button. He heard a snap, and indeed hot water flowed out when he poured the jug.
Although Li Yu was frightened and frightened, what she felt inside was more warmth.
