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

But after all the manure was piled into the originally planned one-meter width, there was almost no room to move around.

You can barely pass by turning sideways, but if you are not careful, you will hit the manure pile.

In the end, the original width of more than one meter was widened by another meter, and the length was also lengthened by one meter, turning it into a shed of 3.5 meters by 2.5 meters.

Now, the manure that seemed to be quite a lot at first suddenly became less visible, occupying only a small half of the space in the enlarged fermentation shed.

The height is slightly higher than the wall, which is exactly the height where Mu Xi does not need to lower his head. After all, he is still basically doing the work of manure.

Zhao Yeqing has been tending crops in the grain field for the past two days. It has hardly rained in the past half month, and two people have to water it manually. The good thing is that there are not as many weeds as before.

Beans love water and are more resistant to waterlogging than crops like wheat. This year's crops will be much easier to take care of. If nothing happens after this period of time, there will be more rainy seasons, and the yield should be considerable.

Xiao Hong picked up some of the weeds piled on the edge of the field and ate them, while the rest were almost turning into hay.

Zhao Yeqing was a little disappointed. If it rained during this period, not only would the hay rot and grow mushrooms, but the beans in the ground would also save time on watering.

The rain really doesn’t come when you want it, and it keeps falling when you don’t want it.

The bottom of the newly dug lotus pond has been sun-dried. The lotus seeds have grown seedlings in the past few days and will soon be transplanted into the pond. The soil at the bottom of the pond is now dry and hard, so I need to put some water to soften it first. soil.

You can't raise fish or snails in the lotus pond, so Mu Xi went to the lake again and got some spring shrimp seedlings to put in.

All the shrimp seedlings in the fish pond were eaten by the fish before. Now that we have this lotus pond, we can revive our previous plan of raising shrimps. I will enjoy the thought of the delicious shrimps filling the pond when summer comes.

Zhao Yeqing became extremely greedy just thinking about it. There were still a lot of dried shrimps left over from the shrimps he caught last year. After placing a small pan on the induction cooker, he mixed the dried shrimps with the batter and put them into the pot and spread them into dried shrimp cakes.

In terms of freshness and sweetness, it is definitely not as good as fried shrimp cakes made from fresh shrimps, but the dried shrimps have a mellow aroma that fresh shrimps do not.

When Zhao Yeqing was rummaging for dried shrimps, she found that many of the dried mushrooms dried last year were somewhat damp. She threw the bag containing the dried mushrooms directly to Mu Xi and asked him to take it to the drying room to dry again.

The moisture remaining in the mushrooms cannot be dried away by the sun. The sun hangs in the sky every day, but it is still a tepid heat. Only simple and rough drying can remove the moisture.

The shrimp larvae have been raised in the water tank at home for two days. They may not be able to adapt to the non-living water environment and are already somewhat dead.

Zhao Yeqing hurriedly took a long bamboo pole, went to the edge of the lotus pond, and poked the bottom with the bamboo pole to confirm that the mud inside was soft. It was a bit difficult to pull out the bamboo pole, and then he let Mu Xi take it and hair The seedlings of lotus seeds jumped to the bottom of the pond to be planted.

Plant lotus seeds and fill them with water, and the half-dead shrimp seedlings in the water tank will be alive and kicking within half a day as soon as they are poured into the lotus pond.

The lotus pond is filled with running water, with a hole for water to flow through, and the bamboo water channel above is dripping water continuously.

The water flow is not large. If it is less, it will be water droplets. If it is more, it will become the current small water flow.

Zhao Yeqing stood next to the pond and surrounded the pond with discarded red bricks. The gaps between the bricks were glued with yellow mud to reduce the risk of water overflowing after subsequent rains and causing the surrounding area to become too muddy.

There are still two days before the kitchen at home can be used normally, and the toilet can be used. After all, you only walk in and come out in a few minutes, and you don't have to move back and forth.

The bathroom was the first to be finished, and Zhao Yeqing also added a brazier inside to speed up drying, hoping to be able to take a hot bath with running water as soon as possible.

Mu Xi also replaced the kitchen, bathroom and toilet with new windows. The original old wooden windows were no longer suitable for the current weather.

The original windows only had glass windows, which could be opened or closed when the weather was hot. If they were not opened, there would be no ventilation, and the room would be very stuffy. If they were opened, there would be no screens, and mosquitoes would fly in.

The kitchen needs to be ventilated to dissipate oily fumes, and the water vapor in the bathroom must also escape, especially the toilet. The smell must be dispersed when going to the toilet, otherwise it will be stuffy and smelly inside and going to the toilet is a torture.

Taking advantage of the free time now, Mu Xi simply made a major change and replaced all the windows with screens, which looked pleasing to the eye with the light-colored tiles now.

By the time the windows are all finished, all the tiles in the home are dry.

The two of them hurriedly moved the stainless steel cabinets they brought back to the kitchen. Mu Xiduo ran to the tourist area and moved back a set of dining tables and chairs from the restaurant.

You can't pair a brand new kitchen with an old dining table.

In addition to the cabinet, there is also a shelf for small household appliances. On top are ovens, wall breakers, rice cookers... and other small household appliances.

The previous sundries were put into the inside of the cabinet. After everything was organized, the two found that the prepared wall shelves were no longer needed, so they simply nailed them to the inside of the brick wall space.

It is located just above the washing machine and can be used to place items such as washing powder.

Because the toilet, bathroom and kitchen are all small bungalows on the first floor, the shortcomings of the first floor are not only the abundance of bugs, but also the poor lighting.

In order to block the rain that drifts in the wind, the eaves of the home will be extended outward, which blocks nearly half of the light in the house on the first floor.

The toilet and bathroom are small, and a light bulb can make up for the difference in lighting.

The kitchen area is slightly larger, and Zhao Yeqing specially installed a light directly above the operating table to facilitate cooking.

After everything was ready, the two stood at the door looking at the brand new kitchen, and then went to the bathroom and toilet twice.

Zhao Yeqing felt so fresh that he wanted to take a shower two or three times on the spot.

First turn on the water heater, fill the water heater's water storage tank, and then turn off the heater to avoid electric shock when using water.

I heard from the aunties who lived in the community at that time that there were some unlucky ones in the community who were electrocuted to death while using electric water heaters that kept running out of power while taking a shower.

In the past, they used gas water heaters, and I had never heard of bathing without washing. But now that gas is no longer available, I can only be careful to cut off the power every time before using water.

When the hot water was boiling, the moment Zhao Yeqing turned on the hot water from the kitchen faucet, there was only one word in his mind...

Cool!
