Leisurely Daily [System]

The only one-acre field in the Gu family's family is wheat, which also needs to be harvested.In previous years, Gu Yuantao would go to the fields with Mrs. Gu Li, but this year Jiang Fan would not let the two of them go, and spent money in the village to ask Uncle Gao's family to help collect it.

Gu Lishi originally disagreed and did not want Jiang Fan to spend that money.On the contrary, Gu Changqing agreed. His leg had already seen the hope of recovery, and he still had business experience. As long as he got better, he would not worry about making money in the future, so he didn't want his wife to be too tired.

Gu Lishi had no choice but to give up, but after being busy for so many years, she lamented to Gu Changqing before going to bed at night, that she hadn't felt so relaxed in a long time, and she still felt very uncomfortable when she was suddenly idle.

Gu Changqing patted his leg, "You have worked hard for so many years. Xiaofan is here, life is getting better, and it will be even better in the future."

Gu Lishi smiled slightly and let out a light breath: "Yes, it will be better."

After harvesting the wheat in the one-acre field, Uncle Gao brought it back, Jiang Fan asked them to tidy up the field, and asked Gu Li what he wanted to plant.

"Grow edamame." Gu Lishi thought for a while and said.In the past, she was the only main laborer in the family, and she had to take care of Gu Changqing, and she couldn't grow any delicate things in the field. Now that she lives here, it is even more inconvenient to take care of the field. The edamame doesn't need much management.

Gu Lishi kept the edamame seeds, and the field was already done. When planting, Gu Lishi didn't let Jiang Fan spend money to hire someone, and he planted it all morning.

Afterwards, Uncle Gao’s family came to rent Jiang Fan’s donkey, and Jiang Fan rented it out. He only said that if there are other people in the village who want to rent it, it’s okay, but they have to pay, five cents a day, and they have to give his donkey. Eat good food, otherwise it will not work if you want to rent in the future.

Uncle Gao said that he knew all this.In their village, only Chen Dagou's family has cattle, which is also the rule. In previous years, everyone was eager to use it. There were many people queuing up, and there were always disputes over the priority.With two more donkeys from Jiang Fan's family this year, the queue situation must be much better.It's just that Jiang Fan was new here, so some people would be reckless. During the busy farming period, Uncle Gao took care of the two donkeys.

The harvested wheat needs to be dried in the hot sun before it can be stored. There is enough open space in the middle yard of Jiang Fan's house. Four drying mats are used for drying one acre of wheat thinner, and there are places for passing on the green brick floor in the inner yard.After a few days in the sun, it was completely dry, and it was all stored in the granary in the utility room. If you want to grind the flour, you can just take it out.

When the donkeys in the village were almost used up, Jiang Fan let the two of them idle for another day and rushed to the town once.To grow red jade fruit, the seeds must have a source. When Jiang Fan went, he told his family that he wanted to find a rare fruit and plant it back.After he came back, Gu Lishi asked him if he found it. He only said that the other party was not sure, and it would take a while to get news, so he asked him to wait, and Gu Lishi and the others stopped asking.

The village has been so busy for seven or eight days. The crops in the fields have been harvested, but they can't relax because they have to plant rice immediately.

To grow rice, seedlings must be raised first. Because Jiang Fan’s family didn’t have any land before, Jiang Fan bought some rice seeds from Uncle Gao and Jiang Hai’s family, and asked them to help raise seedlings. When the seedlings mature, the family will give some money.

The fields have already been soaked with water, and the donkeys of Jiang Fan's family and the cattle of Chen Dagou's family have hardly been idle. They cannot be separated from the paddy fields and plowing, which is really hard work.

The Jiang family has a lot of paddy fields. This time, apart from Uncle Gao’s family, they also invited other people in the village. Jiang Fan’s wages were [-] Wen per mu of paddy fields. Time counts as wages.

Because Jiang Fan generously borrowed the plowing donkey during the busy farming season, and because the fields had to be returned after harvesting the wheat, several households had less land to plant, and the work in the fields was much easier than in previous years. When my uncle came to ask someone to transplant rice seedlings, he readily agreed. The lack of one in my family was just a matter of time. You must know that the wages of [-] Wen per mu are not low. If you are so quick, you can finish it in a day and a half.

When they finished setting up an acre of paddy field, Jiang Fan pretended to check it out, and took out a bag of nutrients and threw it out.

Gu Fangqiu was already confinement when she finished harvesting the wheat in the village. Perhaps Jiang Fan's persuasion helped her, and she didn't look as frowning as before. Now she smiled more, and her complexion improved a lot. Every morning when I get up, I go around the yard, and sometimes I cut a few snowflakes and take them back to my room.As for Gu Changqing's legs, Jiang Fan gave him medicine every night, and he soaked them for almost 20 days. Lie on the bed and sleep until dawn.There was still a slight pain in the leg, but it was almost negligible, and the flesh on his body had increased noticeably, much fatter than when Jiang Fan first saw him.

Now because of the improvement of Gu Changqing's leg disease, the Gu family's smile has never been broken every day. The family has the joy of hope in life every day, and this is all brought by Jiang Fan.Gu Changqing liked this nephew very much in the first place, and now he loves him even more than his own son. Gu Lishi also loves him more and more. In short, the whole family really loves Jiang Fan as a family member.

When the seedlings were planted in the field, there were more Xueyanghua flowers, clustering around the farmyards of Jiang's family.When Gu Fangqiu was choosing vegetables, she especially liked to sit under the eaves and look at the Xueyang flowers all over the yard. The women in the village would occasionally chat with Gu Fangqiu when they passed by Jiang Fan’s house. It is fragrant and beautiful, and it is much more beautiful to wear on the head than the hair flowers bought from the town.

In this way, Gu Fangqiu met a few women with similar temperaments.

And Jiang Fan earned more system coins, enough to meet the needs of all the fields this time.

After the paddy fields are taken care of, there will be dry land and sandy fields. Jiang Fan discussed with his family and set aside one acre of six acres of dry land for vegetable cultivation, and three acres of corn for the remaining five acres, two acres for spare, and four acres of sand fields. On the ground, Jiang Fan also said that he had already made arrangements, so his family didn't ask any more questions.

Jiang Fan had already eaten the red jade fruit before.Because the pulp of the fruit is white milky juice, it is not easy to peel.When eating, Jiang Fan followed the method Agu told him, standing the fruit on the table, and then cut a hole on the top with a knife, and then the fruit became like a cup without a lid, and he just took a spoon to dig the pulp and eat it That's fine, even if you don't have a spoon, it's okay to eat the fruit like drinking water.

The juice tastes sweet and sour, with a fruity fragrance, just like the yogurt eaten in the previous life, it is very sticky, if there is a chance, it can be frozen and eaten as ice cream.At that time, Jiang Fan ate one and wanted to eat the second one, but he had no choice but to find a time to make a deal with Agu again, and trade some red jade fruits to eat.

To nourish the body and prolong life, we should start now.

There is no rush to grow corn, and the dry land is some distance from my house, but it is not far away.Planting corn is not tiring, and now that there are many people in the family, I don't hire any more people.

On the day of planting corn, Gu Lishi and Gu Changqing dug pits with hoes, Uncle Zhang and Zhang Shumo used donkey carts to pull water to irrigate the fields by the river, Gu Yuantao put corn kernels in the pits, and Gu Fangqiu occasionally came to deliver water and food .As for Jiang Fan, he went to the town in Chen Dagou's ox cart to get his "rare seeds".

When Mrs. Gu finished work at night, he saw Jiang Fan sitting on a small bench in the yard, gently stirring the wooden basin in front of him with his hands.

"Master, are these the rare seeds you bought?" Zhang Shumo walked up to him and asked while taking a wooden basin beside him, bringing up the well water and wanting to wash it directly.

Jiang Fan patted him, "There is hot water on the stove, go wash with some hot water, don't wash with cold water."

Zhang Shumo laughed twice, his father had already brought water and poured it into his basin, and even gave him a look, apparently disapproving of him taking cold water directly.

"Xiaofan, the corn will be planted in one day. When will you plant these seeds?" Gu Lishi asked Jiang Fan. She was sitting next to rest, and Gu Changqing was handing her a half-wrought towel to wipe her face. , she smiled, took it and slowly wiped the sweat off her face.

"This is called red jade fruit, but it's a good thing. Eating it is very good for people's health." Jiang Fan said, he went around the town, bought some meat and vegetables, and came back. Put the seeds in the water, and soak them for two days before sowing. "After planting the corn, let's plant this."

Gu Changqing said: "Red jade fruit, what kind, I haven't seen it before!"

Jiang Fandao: "I saw someone selling it at the market once. It is very valuable, but it will take a long time to eat the fruit after planting it in September."

Zhang Shumo and Gu Yuantao showed disappointment at the same time, it will take so long!

Seeing the expressions of the two, Jiang Fan smiled and said, "Don't worry, I'll ask that person in a few days if there are any fruits from last year. If there are any, I'll buy them back for you to taste."

The two were immediately overjoyed and giggled.

After moving the soaked seeds under the eaves, Jiang Fan wiped the water stains on his sleeves, and said to Gu Changqing, "Uncle, do you know how to get the bees back? I want to raise some bees."

Gu Changqing said: "Bee... Doctor Tang's youngest son in our village has raised bees. I'll ask you, are you in a hurry?"

"Hurry up as soon as you can. It's a pity that the flowers in this yard just sit like this and don't get some nectar to eat." Jiang Fan said, this is what he remembered when he saw wild bees collecting honey. There are more flowers blooming, and it is no problem to raise some bees.

Gu Changqing responded quickly: "Okay, anyway, your uncle's leg is almost healed now, Dr. Tang helped me a lot before, I just went to thank him!"

"Then I have to go with you." Jiang Fan said, Dr. Tang took care of his uncle's family a lot, and the nephew should thank him face to face.

"Okay, let's go together, Yuantao will go too, and Shumo."

"Ok!"

"okay!"

Everyone chatted in the yard for a while. In the kitchen, Gu Fangqiu had already prepared dinner. The leftovers at noon were mixed and cooked into braised noodles. The simmered seeds, peppers, and green onions were put aside separately. A plate of sour cabbage and a plate full of stewed pork. Taking advantage of the cool evening breeze, the whole family was sweating profusely while sitting at the dinner table.
