At present, the only material that is better at waterproofing is cement. If the bamboo pipes are laid for such a long time, they will easily get clogged, so they will not be used for a long time.

Zhao Yeqing felt that the best way now was to demolish the east wall and repair the west wall.

She had seen a lot of white plastic pipes outside the house when she was in the tourist area. A single pipe was not long, but if they were all removed and connected with clay-fired connecting joints, it would be very useful. .

The drain pipe outside the house is used to divert rainwater, not domestic sewage, and it won't be very dirty inside.

Then you have to go to the tourist area first.

This condition was not available when building toilets before. Except for the ceramic squatting pit, which was dismantled in the village, everything else was purely handmade.

Even the squatting pit can only be carried back manually.

Now that we have a car, it only takes a few dozen minutes to drive to tourist areas.

The two estimated the required length of the pipes, removed the thicker external drainage pipes, tied them to the roof of the car with ropes and hauled them back.

First place the pipes on the ground and measure the length to determine the location of each pipe before starting to dig the ground.

The previous septic tank is almost half full even now.

The newly dug septic tank was twice the size of the previous one. Mu Xi had gained experience this time and set it larger to reduce the number of cleanings and prevent the septic tank from overflowing and causing reverse osmosis water during heavy rainstorms.

It's that squat pit. It was a bit muddy last time. This time, after it is smashed open, there will inevitably be bumps on the side.

Zhao Yeqing pinched his nose and covered his mouth, looked around two meters away, and said with a loud voice, "It's okay. If it looks a little rough on the outside, just make it a little rough. As long as it works."

Mu Xi felt funny in his heart when he saw her avoiding her, but he didn't dare to laugh out loud. After all, it was a bit too unpleasant.

Resist the smell, rinse it clean and let it dry in the sun.

The process of building the house with bathrooms and toilets went very smoothly and was completed in three days.

After the pipeline was built, it was determined that the water could be successfully passed. When the trench for placing the pipeline was excavated, a layer of cement was added inside to prevent sewage from seeping out.

Although the amount of work is a bit larger, it is definitely worth it. After a few days, the pig pens will be built, and the infrastructure construction will be completed.

The septic tank is opened in a low-lying area, so even reverse osmosis water will not easily flow up.

Zhao Yeqing was also very satisfied with the bathroom this time. The area was enlarged and bathing in it would not be so cramped. After placing the bathtub inside, he could turn around and move around at will.

The size of the toilet is the same as before, and the two toilets combined do not occupy the area of ​​the old hay room.

Zhao Yeqing thought this was just right, because the kitchen, the original main house, and the current toilet and bathroom were all enclosed by a large brick house, as if surrounded by a city wall.

The old hay room was relatively large before, and after the outer brick walls were built, it became a bit narrow, but it was just right at first.

The entire wall behind the brick wall basically fits the back walls of several rooms, so that it does not affect the daily lighting of the windows.

There is still a lot of space inside the brick wall. When it snows, some things that cannot be left in the yard to soak in the snow can be temporarily placed here.

After moving the toilet and bathroom from their original places, the space there was also freed up. Zhao Yeqing planned to move the small vegetable garden in the yard there to expand it and turn it into a greenhouse in the yard.

Update it. Those that were marked before will not be marked.

The area is not very large. It is just the combined area of ​​the previous bathroom and toilet. It is covered with plastic film brought back from the tourist area. This way, when early winter comes, some vegetables can be grown in the greenhouse in the courtyard without having to squeeze them all in. Go to the basement.

The tobacco that was originally planted in the yard has been harvested. It just so happens that it is best not to plant anything else on the land where tobacco has been planted. Zhao Yeqing moved the planting land and vegetables can be grown in the yard again.

Tobacco has terminal inflorescences with many flowers. After the seeds bloom and dry, the seeds can be collected and can be sown next year.

This kind of conventional seed has not been grafted or genetically modified and can be planted every year.

However, the seeds that her eldest nephew brought her before were not very good. Most of those seeds were not conventional seeds. If the seeds are saved and planted again, the yield will be reduced or the fruits will be deformed.

The fruit and vegetable seeds recovered from the village do not have these problems. Most of the older generation farmers save their own seeds, and every year they leave old seeds for each vegetable.

Now after Zhao Yeqing plants, most of the varieties he uses to save seeds are seeds found in the village.

As for what to plant in the greenhouse in the courtyard, Zhao Yeqing has not yet decided.

Mu Xi thought for a while and said, "I'm afraid it's too late to raise seedlings now. How about planting some mustard greens? I remember that you loved to eat sauerkraut pickled with mustard greens when you were a child."

Among the pickled dishes made by the two, the fastest consumed ones are chili peppers, followed by sauerkraut.

Before planting peppers, it is best to raise seedlings and wait until the seedlings are more than ten centimeters long before transplanting.

From the process of raising pepper seedlings to emergence and then transplanting, when the peppers mature and bear the first batch of fruits, winter is probably coming and there is no time.

However, there are still a few pepper plants in the basement that can continue to produce.

In comparison, the fastest way is to grow green leafy vegetables such as mustard.

Zhao Yeqing thought about it and ordered a variety of mustard greens. In addition to pickling sauerkraut, he could also make prunes.

There will definitely be no shortage of green leafy vegetables this winter. If the basement is kept warm, I can probably eat fresh vegetable leaves.

Just think about it and you will have hope.

However, to be on the safe side, Zhao Yeqing still planned to make some dried vegetables for emergencies like he did last winter.

Recently, the temperature in the meadow has dropped below 30 degrees. Only at noon, the temperature can barely touch the edge of 30 degrees.

After taking care of the rest of the newly built houses, the two of them relaxed completely and rested doing nothing for several days.

Although I say I have nothing to do, I still have to finish the daily farm work at home.

Every one or two days, the fields have to be watered and the livestock fed.

Now that the weather has improved, Zhao Yeqing sees that the grass on the meadow has grown much more lush, and he finally lets the cattle and sheep out to graze.

Dahuang is like a career-mad man who has been unemployed for a long time and is depressed. He is suddenly re-appointed by his boss. The original depression is gone, and his whole dog face is radiant.

He took a few puppies with him, barked a few times, and went out to herd in a majestic way.

Zhao Yeqing was sitting on a small chair on the horizon, shaking his cattail leaf fan in his hand, shaking his head and smacking his lips.

"If Dahuang is a person, he is definitely the boss's favorite kind of employee."

Now that the sun was not shining brightly, Mu Xi squatted in the field and slowly pulled weeds. Holding a few small crystal radishes he pulled out, he went to the water source next to the fish pond to rinse them clean and gave them to Zhao Yeqing as snacks.

He deliberately teased, "Aren't you its leader?"

Zhao Yeqing immediately shook his head, "No, I am its family."
