Waste Wood Farming Notes

Li Youcai and his mother go out to buy all kinds of food every day, although they don't know what his mother is doing?But they all cooperated very well. In just half a month, Li Youcai looked much stronger.

Li Tianfu also looked at his father enviously. In half a month, he also looked a little fatter. The most important thing is that the delicious food he ate at He Anle and his own house every day seemed to grow taller. He walked a little bit and ran up the mountain every day, so with his current physical strength, he can walk like flying with a basket of things up the mountain, and there is no need for He Anle to slow down specially.

Why doesn't he grow a little muscle?Li Tianfu sighed in his heart, the flesh around his waist was still limp, without any masculinity at all.

Don't ask for eight-pack abs, four-pack, no, two-pack he's already satisfied.

Li Liushi was not too embarrassed to borrow He Anle's bullock cart for half a month, but without the bullock cart, it would be inconvenient for them to go back and forth.

The money in Li Liushi's hands was also spent about the same.

It was replaced by a large amount of food, all of which were hidden in the cellar under her room in the old house.

When I have nothing to do during the day, I just bring the key and boil sweet potatoes in the old house alone. Because the fence outside the yard is low, people outside can see inside when they pass by.

So Li Liushi can only dry the sweet potatoes in the backyard with high walls, clean the ground, cut the sweet potatoes into small pieces, and it is easier to dry in the sun. Li Tianfu also participated in this matter.

After all, relying on Li Liushi alone, she still has to go to the town on weekdays, and there is no time at all, but Fu Ge'er is different here, with one more person, the work is much faster.

Half a month is enough time for them to dry all the [-] catties of sweet potatoes into dried sweet potatoes. This matter has come to an end for the time being. In a blink of an eye, it is December, and there is still more than a month before they will celebrate the New Year. up.

Chinese New Year means that they are going to start preparing new year's goods. In fact, Li Liushi has hidden the new year's goods in their home while bringing back sweet potatoes, and bought them back.

However, when other people called them to go to the town to buy New Year's goods, Li Liushi took this opportunity to once again release the news that he had no money, so he didn't plan to buy New Year's goods.

Create the feeling that their family is digging out the old bottom to build the house.

Li Tianfu thinks of buying new year's goods, but he finds it very interesting. Most of them buy in advance and together. If they buy together, the weight will be larger and the price will be cheaper.

There will be a lot of novel snacks in the town. If there is a chance, Li Tianfu would like to go shopping. He still has a lot of money in his hand, and he plans to go to the town to buy some medicinal materials.

For heatstroke and cold and fever, you should prepare more herbs just in case. It is not easy to find a doctor in a calamity year.

But things at home are really busy. When Li Tiancai was looking for medicinal materials, he found a piece of taro on the mountain. It was a bit far away from them. It took half an hour to walk there. The distance is still close, and it is in full swing. I go out early and return late to dig taro, and then pick it back.

There is no place to put these pickled yams. At this time, it shows the advantage of building a high wall around the yard, which can directly dry sweet potatoes and yams in the yard.

Under his grandmother's leadership, the previous batch of taro had been dried and preserved.

Naturally, this batch of taro will be dried in the sun. They usually eat sweet potato and taro, but the sweet potato that their family originally kept is enough for them to eat until the sweet potato harvest next year. Now they eat a lot of taro. So some time ago, they ate three meals a day, and the remaining sweet potatoes could still be eaten for the next harvest.

The sun is not as strong as it used to be. In the past, it took only a day or two to dry sweet potatoes, but now it takes at least three days.

Feeling that this is inefficient, Li Liushi waved his hand and asked the family to grill it directly with charcoal fire. There are a lot of firewood on the volcano, and with a little effort, you can pick up a lot.

Roasting directly with fire, if you don't pay attention, it is easy to burn the sweet potatoes. Later, Li Tianfu proposed to string these sweet potatoes together and hang them directly under the eaves, take them out to dry during the day, and bring them back to hang on the eaves at night.

In this way, there is no need to waste so much time, and it greatly saves space, allowing more sweet potatoes to be dried at the same time.

In particular, two tripods were set up in the yard, and the two ends of the rope were tied to them. No matter how much taro they had, they would have enough space to dry it.

When night comes, if you are afraid that the fog will wet them, you can move them in directly or hang them under the eaves.

Li Tianfu still does not participate in the digging of taro. His small body can't help much. He goes to the mountains with Brother He every day, looking for opportunities, and there are many kinds of prey in the space. These are all meat. Come on!

In the disaster year, they will not have enough to eat, and the animals will only suffer worse than them. At that time, it will be very rare to be able to eat a mouthful of meat and drink a mouthful of broth.

It takes less than half an hour to walk. Mrs. Li and Liu are getting older. Recently, they have been thinking about storing water, and they can’t sleep well at night. .

After thinking about it, go find their village chief.

Li Tianfu came back with a big-bellied rabbit in his hand. According to Brother He, this rabbit had a baby rabbit. Li Tianfu simply asked to bring it back. The rabbit ate grass and could be handed over to his third sister to raise them. Now His third sister also lives at home to help out, so we can't hide the taro digging from her.

Therefore, many of the housework in the family fell to his third sister, but it was done by everyone, because she had two children, and all the chores she chose were left at home.

If the rabbits can still be fed, there will be a lot of rabbits in a litter. If they are raised for a few months, they can be slaughtered and eaten when they start spring.

Li Tianfu also felt troublesome about water storage. At least on the surface, water storage is very difficult. At this time, there is no cement, and a large water storage tank can be built.

Well water, they can use it for two years before it dries up completely.

For the next time, they must find a way to store water.

"Third Sister, this rabbit is for you to raise. It's already pregnant. When it gives birth to baby rabbits, they will have meat to eat when they grow up." Li Tianfu said with a smile, "By the way, Third Sister, why don't you see any milk?"

"The grandma seems to be in the room, knock on the door to see if she is there?" Li Sanya said, took the rabbit and locked it in a chicken coop.

"Grandma, brother He is going to the town to deliver the prey. I haven't been to the town for a long time, and I will go with you. Do you need to buy anything?"

"No need, come back early." Li Liushi said, and then habitually took out the silver and fumbled for nothing. She almost forgot that her silver had already been used up.

Then continue to think about the problem, water storage is really a big problem.

"Then grandma, I'll go first." Li Tianfu said, asked what things needed to be bought at home, wrote them down, and went to town in a bullock cart.

As soon as he arrived in the town, Li Tianfu jumped out of the bullock cart in a hurry, "Brother He, I will buy something for them, you go to deliver the prey first, I will wait for you here after I finish shopping."

"Okay, then be careful." He Anle warned.

Carrying a big basket, Li Tianfu first went to buy what they wanted to buy, and then walked over slowly. There were indeed a lot of fresh food in the town. When he saw something he liked, Li Tianfu would stop and buy a lot. less, put them in the basket, and use the cover of the basket.

Li Tianfu bought a lot of things, but the basket was still not full, and then he bought some delicious food for his family and his two little nephews.

He has a lot of silver in his hands, but he doesn't dare to spend it recklessly.

There were still watermelons for sale in the town at this time. Li Tianfu didn't plan to buy them when he asked the price. The watermelon seeds he had planted had sprouted, and after a while, they would have watermelons to eat.

"Li Tianfu."

Li Tianfu looked around but found no one.

"Li Tianfu!"

Li Tianfu heard it clearly this time, looked in that direction, and saw the boy squatting in the corner.

"White……"

"Bai Er." Bai Er looked at him with an uneasy expression, "Why haven't you come to town for so long?!"

Li Tianfu remembered that he said he would visit the town soon, but he forgot, and said embarrassingly, "I forgot, I don't plan to do that business, what can you do with me?"

At this time, it was Bai Er's turn to be embarrassed. He had wanted to find a village to settle down in, but he hadn't found a suitable one. The three of them were weak. Of course, Bai Yi was an adult, but his brain was not good enough. They moved to the village, fearing they would be bullied.

In addition, they needed the consent of the village chief to transfer their household registration to the village. After finally finding a suitable place, the village chief opened his mouth when he saw that none of them had anyone capable of doing things.

In the end, it was all over.

Then he thought of Li Tianfu, and asked about their village. With Li Tianfu, a big fool, for his sake, he would definitely not let them be bullied.

Li Tianfu didn't urge him either, because of their predestined relationship, "What's your problem? If I can help, I will definitely not refuse, and I will treat it as compensation for not keeping my promise."

Bai Er bit his lower lip, the money in his hand was enough to buy land and a house, and he didn't want Bai Yi and Bai San to be displaced with him.

"We want to move the household registration to your village." Bai Er said, "We just want to find a place to settle down."

"You want to move to our village?" Li Tianfu wondered if he heard it wrong, so he repeated it.

"Yes, so can we pretend to be relatives of your family? Then live in your village?" Bai Er looked at him anxiously.

Li Tianfu nodded, "Of course, but you have thought about it carefully. The location of Lijia Village is very remote, very far from the town. If you want to go to the town on weekdays, you can only take the village's ox cart."

"I know, can I go with you today?" Bai Er said excitedly.

Of course, he had investigated Li Tianfu's news, and he also knew that Li's village was in a remote place, but they wanted a remote place, because they had been beggars in the town, so people from villages near the town might know each other. They, so he would not choose a village close to them.

If they would be looked down upon by the villagers, they would not be willing to move to the village.

Li Tianfu nodded, "You wait here for me... No, forget it, you go with me."

"I'll go back and pack my things, can you wait for me?" Bai Er said, they rented a small yard in the town, and he was in a hurry to move out recently because a group of hooligans seemed to be eyeing them.

Li Tianfu looked at the things in the basket, he bought similar things, "I'll go with you, the things are already bought, you guys hurry up."

Bai Er led Li Tianfu to turn left and right, came to a small alley, knocked on the door and said, "I'm back."

Bai San opened the door, "Second Brother, you are back!"

"Go ahead, this is Brother Li."

"Hello, Brother Li." Bai San glanced at him a few times, he remembered this person, the person who took him to see the doctor before.

Li Tianfu: "...You guys should call Brother Tim Fuk."

Their family didn't have many things left here, Bai Er quickly packed them up...

So when He Anle came back after delivering the prey, there were four people standing there.

Seeing He Anle walking towards them, Bai Er looked at him warily.

Li Tianfu couldn't help but rubbed his hair, "This is He Anle who lives near my house, but he looks fierce, don't be afraid."

Bai Er looked at the man who was looking at him fiercely, isn't it just that he looks fierce?

"What happened between us before was the little secret between each other, do you know?" Li Tianfu exhorted, and Bai Er probably understood it, so he still mentioned it because he was afraid that they would show their mouths.

"Where do we have any secrets?" Bai Er said smartly.

"Who are these guys, Fu Geer?" He Anle looked at the boy whose head was rubbed by Fu Geer displeased.

Li Tianfu explained and concealed the deal with the other party.

He Anle said disapprovingly, "You are too rash."

Fu Geer didn't speak, He Anle thought that his tone was too strong, and looked over——

Li Tianfu had already climbed into the bullock cart, and greeted the other three people, "Hurry up, we are going back."

He Anle: "..."

Forget it, let him teach him a lesson!

"Sit down." He Anle said, and drove the ox cart back.

Bai Er didn't calm down along the way, and kept inquiring about the situation in the village, hoping that they could integrate into the village as soon as possible.

Li Tianfu was very cooperative, and when he said later, he reminded them, "You have just started to live, it is best not to buy land, and make other plans when you settle down."

In half a year's time, the drought is coming. It is a waste of money to buy a field, and they don't have any good fields here.

"When the time comes, it will be better to directly open up wasteland than to buy land." Li Tianfu added.

"I see." Although they came pretending to be relatives of their family, there was no adult in the family, and they bought fields and land as soon as they came to the village, so they were easy to be targeted by the bums in the village.

Bai Er hugged the bundle in his arms tightly. The ten taels of silver in his arms was their entire net worth. When they went to the village, they should build a house first, and then told the outside world that the silver was used up.

They are foreigners. If they want to build a house, they must use money to buy land. Before they opened up wasteland, they had to rely on buying food.

It's best for them to live close to brother Tianfu's place. If something happens to them, they can develop such a good temper as brother Fu'er, and it's not because of bad people.

Bai Er was thinking about something, while the bullock cart was shaking, he accidentally fell asleep.

"Second brother wake up, we're at the place." Bai San pushed Bai Er and jumped down.

Li Tianfu got off the bullock cart with a lot of things, and said proudly, "This is my home, wait a minute, I'll go and put the things away, and then I'll take you to the village chief."

He went in for a while, because he wanted to tell his grandma, and then his grandma took away most of the silver and gave him a snack wrapped in oil paper for him to take to the village chief.

When Fu Geer's figure disappeared inside the door, He Anle looked at them coldly, and warned, "Don't try to play tricks! You can still stay in the village in peace, otherwise, I will put you Throw it back into town."

Bai Er didn't avoid his scrutiny and said, "We have no evil intentions."

He Anle looked at them for a while, and then said, "I know, otherwise you thought you could come back together in my ox cart?"

He also had an impression of these people, and they were indeed not from bad people, so he tacitly agreed that Fu Geer would bring them back. Anyway, there are not many people in our village chief, and with him, others can't hurt Fu Geer.

When Li Tianfu came out, they looked at the scenery next to each other in silence. Li Tianfu seemed to have not seen it, with a smile on his face, "Brother He, drive the ox cart back first, and then accompany you to find the patriarch!"

The corner of He Anle's mouth curved in an arc, and he nodded.

Throughout the rest of the process, He Anle worked tirelessly to help get things done.

Bai Er refused to buy those abandoned houses in the village, but bought a piece of land not far from their home and planned to build a house.

The land is not big, but the advantage is that it is close to their home. If something happens, they call loudly, and Li Tianfu's home can hear it.

"Grandma, this is Bai, Bai, Bai, Bai, and San. They are temporarily staying at our house." Li Tianfu came back with the three of them. After speaking, he remembered that it seemed a bit inconvenient at home. Their taro hadn't been cleaned yet. After finishing, he quickly changed his words, "I'm sorry, it's inconvenient for you to live at home now, you go out with me."

"Grandma Li." The three little guys didn't change their faces when they heard what he said, and greeted Li Liushi before going out with Li Tianfu.

"There are a lot of women in the family, you are not suitable to live in our house." Li Tianfu explained, as to whether he believed him or not, he didn't know, Li Tianfu beat his own villain in his heart, why did he forget , There is still a big secret in their family? !

In order to make up for his mistake just now, Li Tianfu went near He Anle's house, said a lot of good things about Brother He, and said that he would help find reliable people to work on their house building.

"Oh, by the way, do you think of blue bricks or mud bricks?"

"Mudbrick." Bai Er said.

Their current piece of land is still a bit small. For the long-term plan in the future, Bai Er plans to build a mud brick house to make do with it. After they grow up and integrate into the village, they will also buy the land near their home. , and then build a blue brick house, then there is no fear that someone will dare to take their ideas.

Bai Er felt that their top priority now was to grow up well. His contacts in the town were still there all the time. If he wanted to make money, there was still a way, so there was no need to worry about it.

He is in the town, who hasn't seen him?

It can be seen at a glance that there is an unusual atmosphere between Li Tianfu and the two of them, but I'm not sure, and I don't intend to think too much, that man looks fierce, and they don't like each other very much.

"Brother He, I suddenly remembered that the third sister still lives in our house, can we let them live in your house first?" Li Tianfu found that the door was not closed, so he went in directly.

Dahei found three strangers, stood up immediately, and issued a low warning sound to them. Bai Er's legs softened suddenly. He had been chased by dogs in the town, and he was afraid of dogs.

Li Tianfu went over and patted Dahei's head, "This is our guest, please sit down."

Dahei walked around them twice, sniffing and memorizing their scents, and then lay down on the side.

Bai Er took a lot of effort to keep himself from showing his ugly face. Now seeing the big dog go aside, he was relieved.

He Anle stood in the yard chopping firewood, knowing that he would come over later, so he didn't lock the door. Hearing this, he looked at Fu Geer several times suggestively.

Li Tianfu: "..."

Don't you have anything else on your mind but yellow crap? !

Forced to do so, Li Tianfu could only nod slightly.

He Anle snorted inwardly, and said, "Come with me, do you live together or apart?"

Although there are only two people living in their house now, its area is more than half that of Brother Fu's house. There are not many others, but the most empty rooms.

It can be seen that Brother He's parents are very capable people, but I don't know, how could they go by accident like this?

"The three of you live here temporarily, if you eat..."

He Anle took over the conversation with empathy, "Just eat at my house, but you have to pay for it."

Bai Er nodded, "I see."

Even if the other party asked him to eat for free, they didn't have the face to eat and live for free. When Li Tianfu was about to go, Bai Er took out a bag of things, "This is a little care for Grandma Li."

Li Tianfu looked at him differently, this kid actually remembered to buy delicious food for his grandma, so he understands these ways of the world at such a young age.

"I came in a hurry, so I didn't buy anything good. I'll make up for it next time." Bai Er said with some embarrassment.

He originally planned to wait for their business to be completed before buying something for them, but he didn't expect that the process would be so smooth.He naturally understood that it was for brother Fu's sake, or rather for their family's sake.

Li Tianfu said indifferently, "It's just a small matter, but I will accept this snack."

Seeing that he had nothing to do, Li Tianfu went back with a bag of dim sum. He recognized the taste of the dim sum in this shop. The oiled paper wrapped in the red bean cake he often bought.

……

Not long after Li Tianfu lay down, He Anle's voice came from outside the window, "Brother Fu, open the window."

"Why are you here so late today?"

"It's not that those little bastards have delayed my time. They have no relatives and no reason. How can you treat them so well?" He Anle said unhappily.

Li Tianfu: "...it looks pleasing to the eye."

He Anle was dissatisfied with his answer, and deliberately moved his hands harder. Li Tianfu gasped, his eyes turned red, "Take it easy!"

He Anle's eyes lit up, and he kissed his eyes, "If you cry today, how about I let you go?"

Li Tianfu: "..."

roll!
