Who knows! As soon as I returned to the mountains to farm, I encountered a natural disaster.

The fish soaked in the sauce is so soft and glutinous that the gelatinous texture sticks to the lips. The white fish tastes delicate and has no fishy smell at all.

The taste of fish intestines is quite peculiar, with a hint of bitterness, but after the bitterness, it has a sweet aftertaste.

After eating the fish intestines, I picked up the fish eggs and bit them down. The tiny fish roe spread out in my mouth. After biting into pieces, my mouth was full of sweetness, which just neutralized the bitter taste left in my mouth.

The golden shell of the fish absorbed the sauce, and the fish skin was still a little crispy. She used chopsticks to poke the fish apart, picked out the small spines inside, mixed the rice and fish together, and poured a ladle of sauce over it to mix well.

The thick brown sauce coats the white fish meat and rice, and is filled with crispy fish skin.

Zhao Yeqing looked satisfied after eating. Mu Xi put the fish meat with fish bones into her bowl, "If you like it, I will catch two more tomorrow."

There are many fish in the lake, and occasionally eating one or two spawning fish will not have much impact.

Zhao Yeqing's favorite food is fish soaked. Remembering that when he was a kid, there were rumors that the chickens used for fried chicken had eight pairs of wings, and he sighed,

"It would be great if each fish could grow eight fish bubbles."

Mu Xi put the fish head into her bowl, "Eat more to replenish your brain."

After the rapeseed was sown, the weather was good and the sunshine began to gradually become longer.

The dried wheat seeds can be sown directly into the fields.

Sowing winter wheat requires germination, but spring wheat does not.

Winter wheat is sown in autumn. In order for the wheat to germinate quickly and be more frost-resistant after the tillering stage, germination must be accelerated before sowing to speed up growth.

The climate in spring is suitable, and wheat seeds can germinate as long as the temperature is above three degrees.

More than ten degrees is its most suitable temperature.

Sow seeds in rows, neither too densely nor too sparsely. It is best to open a small ditch before sowing.

The wheat field was not large. Mu Xi took a hoe and drew a ditch in front of it. Zhao Yeqing followed behind and scattered the seeds. The two of them could finish the work in an afternoon.

Wheat cannot be planted too deep, as it will affect seedling emergence, nor too shallow, as the root system will easily become unstable and cause lodging.

The moisture in the wheat field is not particularly good. In order to adjust it, they spread water and fertilizer on the wheat field a few days ago. Now they only need to plant seeds and cover it with soil.

After planting the wheat before evening, most of the planting tasks for the first half of the year are completed. The next step is to transplant rice seedlings, manage the fields, and plant some vegetables and pasture.

After a while, the seedlings in corn and rapeseed fields will grow taller, and some garlic will be planted in them to prevent insects from growing.

Planting layout plan

For pasture, we decided to plant ryegrass, alfalfa, and corngrass.

Seeds of three types of pastures were sown on the two previous pasture grasslands and wheat fields, and the remaining highland barley land was used to save seeds for the three types of pastures.

It’s already mid-December after the pasture has been sorted and the seeds have been sown.

The two of them spread water and fertilizer on the pasture and took back the shrimp pots in the lake.

During this period, we harvested several lake shrimps one after another, but the number was not large, and the female shrimps with eggs were all thrown back into the lake.

After drying the shrimps caught one after another, only a handful was obtained.

Zhao Yeqing put the dried shrimps into a stone pound and ground them into shrimp powder with a pestle. Adding a little bit of it when cooking can enhance the freshness.

Mu Xi came back from his daily inspection of the fields, "Everything is fine. The rice germination is normal. The glutinous rice looks better than the rice."

It seems that you can also try the dry rice seedling method when planting rice in the second half of the year.

The rice field is only half an acre, and after the harvest, another round of late rice must be planted.

In the past, they would plant rice seedlings at the end of March and harvest them in July. They would plant late rice seedlings into the ground while harvesting.

The late rice must be planted before the end of the Beginning of Autumn. Time is very tight. It is the first busy farming period in autumn - double harvesting.

Zhao Yeqing observed the growth of the seedlings, recorded the growth cycle in his notebook, and determined the time to raise the late rice seedlings.

By the end of December, the early rice seedlings in the fields had finally grown. Mu Xi opened the water outlet and let water fill the rice fields.

After the water in the field had been released for more than an hour, Zhao Yeqing held a pot of seedlings, rolled up his trouser legs and walked to the field to prepare for planting.

The fields are always wet, and as soon as your feet step in, they sink a bit. The water in the fields is up to your ankles, and the skin near the water surface is tickled by the rippling water ripples.

Picking up the rice seedlings, I thought about the rice-planting instructions in the original owner's notes.

'I would rather float on the water than lose my waist. '

In other words, the seedling waist should be flush with the water surface, or the water surface should be lower than the seedling waist.

Seedlings should be planted in rows, with more than 15 centimeters between rows.

Zhao Yeqing had just planted two rows of rice seedlings when the water level in the field reached the waist of the seedlings.

She quickly blocked the water outlet.

After this interruption, she realized that her waist was extremely sore.

I have been bending down for a long time and I still feel nothing. After bending down for a long time and then straightening up, I feel that the bones in my back are stiff.

Zhao Yeqing put his hands behind his back and punched his waist a few times, then raised his eyes to check the progress.

It's still too early to finish inserting.

Mu Xi had just finished handling the glutinous rice seedlings that had been raised in the dry field. He came over with the seedlings and saw her beating her waist in a daze. He walked a few steps to the field, put his hands under her creaking nest, and lifted her up from the rice field.

He carried it and put it on the edge of the field.

"Your menstrual period will be here in a few days. Didn't I tell you not to go down and just look at the fields and water?"

Zhao Yeqing's playful smile.

Mu Xi glanced at her without saying anything else. He picked up the seedling pot and went to the field. Zhao Yeqing walked barefoot to the fish pond and washed the mud off his feet.

Both of them only drank a glass of milk in the morning, so they were feeling a little hungry.

Zhao Yeqing touched his stomach and asked Mu Xixiao, "Are you hungry? What do you want to eat? I'll cook."

Mu Xi raised his head and observed her expression, "Well, I'm hungry. I probably want to eat noodles."

"Really?"

He immediately changed his mind, "Actually, I don't really want to eat noodles, so I should want to eat fried rice?"

Zhao Yeqing nodded, "Okay, no problem."

Zhao Yeqing took one of the beef sausages that had been smoked for more than a month, cut it in half, cut it into small cubes and sauteed it with oil until fragrant.

Beat two eggs into egg liquid, fry until half-cooked, and then pour last night's leftover rice into the pot.

Smelling the aroma, Zhao Yeqing was already thinking about what to eat at night.

After eating beef, mutton and bacon for half a winter, I am really tired of eating it. I am also tired of eating fish in the past two days.

Don't talk about her, the dogs at home all eat meat until their eyes are dull.

Almost all of the brown bear that was killed was fed to the dogs.

After a week of eating, they would rather eat than eat bear meat.

In the end, I was not picky about the glutinous rice cakes and snow cakes. I ate a lot of them every day and didn't finish them until the snow melted.

Other animals are very thin after the winter and have to come out quickly to find food. Only these two leopards are fat after the winter.

Thinking about the dogs and leopards at home, a thought suddenly flashed through her mind, but it disappeared too quickly for her to catch.

Carrying two bowls of fried rice to the edge of the field, he asked Mu Xi to wash his hands before eating. He absentmindedly put a spoonful of fried rice into his mouth and said vaguely,

"I always feel like we forgot something."
