Who knows! As soon as I returned to the mountains to farm, I encountered a natural disaster.
Chapter 5: Surround a small vegetable garden
'For the new virus that broke out recently, it is determined that the initial infection symptom is fever, which is manifested as high fever accompanied by shortness of breath and flushing of the face. If anyone around you has a fever, please isolate yourself immediately. The later stage of the virus will make people crazy and confused. If they are bitten, they will If you are infected, please close the doors and windows and stay at home. If a relative is unfortunately infected, please do not come into contact with the infected person and wait for official notification. '
Zhao Yeqing quit the news, replied to Kong Sisi's message to report that he was safe, and called Feng Chunyan. After confirming that they were safe, he put down his phone.
The Feng family's house is self-built. Feng Chunyan's lumber factory is large and surrounded by iron sheets. The house is built inside. It happens to be the Qingming Festival holiday and there are no workers in the factory. They should be safe.
Zhao Yeqing looked out the window and didn't find anything unusual. He went downstairs and boiled a pot of water. After boiling the noodles, he cracked an egg and added a few vegetable leaves. He finished the noodles seriously and tried to maintain his strength in case he needed it. Fighting, she had to protect herself.
Sprinkle feed for the chickens and geese, and put the vegetables that I didn't have time to put away yesterday into the cellar. The vegetable seedlings I bought before have not been planted yet. If I don't plant them, there will be problems.
I used a hoe to dig up the soil, and used the remaining bricks to surround the vegetable garden to make it look neater. While the sun was still not strong, I planted tomato, pepper, eggplant, pumpkin, and loofah seedlings.
Tomatoes and peppers are planted next to each other, with a row of leeks planted in the middle and a few sweet basil planted around them. The aroma of leeks can protect tomatoes and peppers from insect pests, while the smell of tomato leaves can repel caterpillars that love sweet basil.
She likes the smell of tomato stems and leaves best. When she was a child, she could not help but reach out and touch the tomatoes her grandmother grew. After her hands were covered with the smell, she would put them under her nose and inhale. The more she inhaled, the more addictive she became.
When Feng Lixuan later delivered the goods, she also sent some more manure and other seeds. There were dozens of dazzling varieties, including vegetables, fruits and flowers. She picked out some of her favorite vegetables and planted them, as well as some that she forgot to buy. Onions, ginger, and garlic are also included.
There is a row of lettuce and chrysanthemum in the middle of the rapeseed, Chinese cabbage and cabbage. The first three are cruciferous crops and are most susceptible to insects. Lettuce and chrysanthemum are vegetables of the Asteraceae family, and the smell they emit is a natural repellent to cruciferous vegetables. Pesticide.
The left side of the small vegetable garden is the leafy vegetable area, the middle is the fruit and vegetable area, and the right side is still empty. I will see what I can plant later.
When she was in the city before, the house she rented was a small single room with a closed balcony. There was insufficient sunlight and the crops she could grow were limited. The vegetables she grew were not enough to eat a few times a year, which made her hungry.
After adjusting the water and fertilizer and watering everything, I turned around and found a few chickens watching eagerly, getting ready to go.
Zhao Yeqing hurriedly rushed the chickens and geese into the chicken coop and saw that the small vegetable garden was in trouble. She originally planned to just use electric appliances to cook without preparing firewood. She had to go out to surround the vegetable garden.
She went back to her room, changed her clothes and shoes, put on her hatchet and ax and went out. There was a piece of bamboo not far from her home, just a few minutes' ride away by the side of the path. She rode a tricycle there, and the chopped bamboo was divided into pieces on the spot. A few sections were shipped back.
The ecology of Meishan is well protected, and the bamboos here are more lush than she thought. This bamboo is not a protected plant. Zhao Yeqing said that it was forced by the situation, and he cut down three bowl-sized bamboos with peace of mind. , a few birds that were napping on the bamboo tops were so startled that they flew into the sky, swearing.
Panting and panting, I divided the bamboos into sections one by one and carried them to the car. I also got some unexpected gains. Although the bamboo forest was not big, several bamboo shoots sprouted. It was impossible to let go.
After planing and breaking off the bamboo shoots, the intact bamboo shoots were lying in the compartment of his car. After looking around to make sure that he had not missed any, Zhao Yeqing rode home with satisfaction.
To build a fence, you need to split the bamboo tubes into pieces, and wear protective gloves to prevent bamboo thorns from digging into your skin.
Use the wood you just picked up on the road to drive a pile at the four corners of the vegetable garden. Use an air nail gun to nail the split bamboo pieces to the pile. First, nail two beams on the pile. Then nail the bamboo pieces vertically at intervals, leaving a gap in the middle. The width of the fence gate.
The fence gate also uses bamboo pieces to nail a door frame first, then add a few bamboo pieces in the middle to serve as a barrier, and finally use hemp rope to tie a cross beam knot to fix it on the fence.
After the fence was completed, the chickens and geese could be released. Zhao Yeqing entered the house and observed from the window.
When the chickens in the yard saw no one, they started walking towards the vegetable garden. She felt relieved after seeing several chickens flapping about for a long time but failing to fly in.
I made a top view for reference.
Looking at the time, it was already three o'clock in the afternoon. She thought of the freshly cut bamboo shoots, took two of them, and threw the rest into the cellar.
Peel the bamboo shoots, of course, with gloves on. Cut the peeled bamboo shoots into pieces and blanch them in freshly boiled water.
Then take out a piece of bacon and cut it into cubes. After blanching the bamboo shoots, remove the bacon from the pot and cover it with water.
She stored a few kilograms of ribs in the refrigerator, divided them into bags of one kilogram and put them in the freezer. She took out a bag and broke off a few pieces, defrosted and blanched them.
Put all the ingredients into the casserole, bring it to a boil over high heat, then turn down the heat and simmer slowly, then take out the small one-person rice cooker she sent back and cook half a cup of rice.
The temperature on the mountain is still a bit low now, which is not suitable for the growth of vegetables. Before the soup is ready, Zhao Yeqing puts the transparent plastic film cloth he prepared before on the fence and pulls it from left to right, so that the entire vegetable garden is covered. , and then press stones on the left and right sides to fix it, which can both moisturize and keep warm.
After more than an hour of tossing, the soup is almost ready.
Zhao Yeqing opened the lid of the pot. There are few dishes like pickled fresh food. You don’t need to taste it. You just need to lift the lid of the pot and you can smell the ultimate freshness. There is no such dish in her hometown. This is a dish from Jiangsu and Zhejiang when she was in college. My roommate enthusiastically recommended it. After trying it, I must make it several times every spring.
The soup is light milky white, the bacon is crispy and fat, the ribs are soft and tender, and the bamboo shoots are fragrant and crispy. There is no need to add additional seasonings. One mouthful of salty and delicious food goes straight to Tianling Gai.
The temperature in the mountains is less than ten degrees now. After a bowl of hot soup, Zhao Yeqing showed his only smile in the past two days.
A pot of soup and a bowl of rice, her stomach was full after eating, and she sighed with satisfaction. At least she was still alive. One more meal was a meal.
Counting her relatives, only Feng Chunyan's family is left. Her parents divorced and started their own families. Her grandparents who raised her also passed away a few years ago.
In this case, if you stay calm and live one more day, you will earn money.
She is now extremely grateful that she built a wall a few days ago and installed anti-theft doors and windows. Even if an infected person comes, she can resist it for a while.
Nowadays, many social media platforms have closed the upload function, preventing the circulation of pictures and videos. Only the posts about this situation on the extranet that circumvent the wall are still fermenting. She does not usually have the habit of circumventing the wall to access the Internet. It was because she saw pyq Someone posted the screenshot.
It is a post entirely in Chinese. It is estimated that it cannot be posted in China and can only be shared with Chinese people on the Internet.
'According to experiments, the aggressive behavior of the infected people after being infected by the virus is hemotactic. My experiments have confirmed that chicken blood and duck blood are useless, and live animals are not very attractive to them. They have the characteristics of ordinary people. He has vision and hearing, and has an extremely keen sense of smell. He is very sensitive to the smell of human blood, and his sense of pain is weakened. His physical fitness is (seemingly) the same as that of ordinary people. There is a chance of defeating him in a one-on-one fight. If you cannot avoid it, please fight back actively. '
The Meishan Mountains are very long, and most of them are protected areas with almost no residents. If the virus is hemotropic, her safety factor will be greatly improved.
Seeing that it was still dark, Zhao Yeqing picked up the shovel and went out to the intersection. The small truck that drove back yesterday was still parked on the side of the road. She couldn't help but think of the appearance of Wang Chao's body yesterday. She took a deep breath. Clear your mind of thoughts.
She planned to dig a deep hole at the intersection. She didn't know if it would be useful, but it was just to give herself peace of mind.
The three-meter deep pit, if the infected person has no sense, should not be able to get out if he falls in. If an ordinary person is fleeing up the mountain, if he falls in, he will be able to grab the mud next to him and climb out.
Half of the digging was done, and the digging should not be finished today. The sky was getting dark. Zhao Yeqing drove the small truck into a low-lying area on the roadside and covered it with dead grass.
Parking on the side of the road is too risky and could easily expose her location. Even ordinary people who are not infected should try to avoid it.
Zhao Yeqing pulled the zipper of his coat to the top, covering half of his face and mouth and nose to prevent mosquito bites on his face.
Perhaps because the weather has been getting warmer recently, mosquitoes seem to be much more active than in the past few days.
Listening to the screams of various unknown insects in the mountains, I wonder if she is too sensitive now, and she always feels a little different from usual.
