Traveling through mountains and rivers

Early the next morning, everyone in the Tao family got up early to do their own work. A group of children still hung out with Ning Ze, and Ning Ze brought a group of children to the river early.

There are many snails by the river every morning and night. Now that they need this, they have to go to the river diligently. The river is big enough, and the river flows from top to bottom. Ning Ze is not worried that they will take the snails. The snails in this river have been picked up, and the ones that are too small are picked up and raised instead of being sold.

There were quite a lot of snails in the morning. Ning Ze ran along the river once with a group of children, and picked up as many as a small basket. Looking at the snails in the basket, Ning Ze had a smile on his face. Two days is definitely enough.

Ning Ze didn't take the snails back directly, but dug a hole by the river in a relatively hidden place where no one usually goes, and drew the river water in, and all the snails poured in.

The pit wasn't too shallow, so there was no need to worry about the snails climbing up. Even if they did, they were nearby and couldn't run very far.

After doing this, Ning Ze led a group of children back home.

After breakfast, leaving the children to look after the house, Ning Ze and Tao Qing went to the seedling field. The village head was not in a hurry, but the seedling raising must be. The two of them thought that the sooner the better, the land could be turned over today. It's best to come out.

The injury on Ning Ze's head is almost healed. Although the wooden board in his hand has not been removed, it is obviously better than before. He feels that he can work with one hand in a hurry.

The Tao family has ten acres of land, six acres of high-quality fields, and four acres of medium-sized fields. Although it sounds like a lot, it cannot withstand the low grain production, high taxes, and large population of this era. Not much really.

There are only two pieces of land for raising seedlings. Vegetables were planted before, but now they are all eaten, so the land is empty. Just turn it over, level it, and sprinkle manure on it to sprinkle rice.

There is no fertilizer in this era, and the manure is all pig manure, chicken manure and duck manure, which are saved for one year and used up at the beginning of the next spring. Even now, the Tao family's manure may not be enough for them to grow this crop of rice.

Even the fertilizer had to be considered, and Ning Ze felt that they really had a long way to go, and the road was still long.

The two of them took a good look at the land and went back to get a hoe. The sun is not so bright now, so they can dig as much as they can.

The Tao family has already agreed to this matter, so they naturally have no scruples, and they just treat it as working for their own family.

It was still difficult for Ning Ze to hold a hoe with one hand, and he was not proficient in digging the ground, mainly because he couldn't, so he could only learn from Tao Qing.

Tao Qing looked at Ning Ze suspiciously, "Ah Ze, have you forgotten how to dig the ground?"

Ning Ze looked at his injured hand, and then at the hoe in his hand. He didn't have the nerve to admit it, and felt a little ashamed.

Tao Qing walked up to him and said, "Obviously the wound on your head is healed, and you still remember eating snails when you were young, how could you not remember how to dig the ground?"

Ning Ze, who was full of doubts and questions, didn't know how to answer. He could only bite the bullet and say, "I just told them about the snails. I don't remember eating them when I was a child. I just ate them." I think this food is edible, and I want to try it, but I don’t have a good reason, Dad, Mom, they must disagree, so I said this.”

"As for digging, one hand is a bit inconvenient, so it's a bit troublesome. You don't need to worry about me. I'll explore for a while, and when I get used to it, there will be no problem."

After hearing what Ning Ze said, Tao Qing shook his head in disappointment and left. He still hoped that Ning Ze could remember the past. Although the past was not a good thing, he still hoped that he could remember it. I don't understand why there is such an idea.

Tao Qing didn't say anything after that, and worked hard, Ning Ze couldn't say anything more, trying to get used to digging with one hand, the two of them dug a whole block in one morning, and the speed was quite fast.

When it was time to eat, Tao Qing went back to cook, and Ning Ze also went back to rest for a while. The rice in the Tao family's field can be harvested today, and then water can be brought to the field immediately. Fast on a lot.

After lunch today, the Tao family did not rest as usual, but went to the field to collect all the remaining rice. Now, except for the rice stalks left after the rice ears were cut at the beginning, everything else in the field is empty.

Now I just want to soak the fields, so I don't need to rush to harvest the rice stalks.

Tao Qing and Ning Ze went to dig the ground as before. After digging the rest of the land, they poured manure, and the rice could be sown tomorrow.

In fact, it could have been finer, but Ning Ze couldn't wait, so he saved a lot of steps. As long as the rice can germinate and grow, it will be fine.

The two of them had been busy for a whole day, and the ground was finally taken care of. After picking up the dung and splashing it, the two of them packed up and went home.

Ning Ze felt that this day's work was more tiring than his previous training day. Sure enough, not everyone can be a farmer. Whoever said that being a farmer does not need technical content is definitely a lie.

Because of working with one hand, Ning Zehua has much more energy and strength than Tao Qing, and he doesn't want to move at all at night. I don't know where to lose my glory.

And the way Ning Ze expresses his depression is to take a group of children to fight in the yard after dinner at night. In order to avoid the doubts of the Tao family, Ning Ze didn't play any real skills, but just taught the children a few things indiscriminately. To move, he found a place that was not very bright and worked hard, squandering the energy he had accumulated after a lot of effort.

When he was playing around with a group of children, the Tao family moved a stool and sat in the yard to watch the fun. There was no entertainment, and the many children in the family made a lot of anger. They made such a fuss tonight. It made the Tao family laugh a few times, and the fatigue of working every day for the past few days was also relieved a lot.

Ning Ze felt that it was worth their fuss. The life of a peasant family is like that of a peasant family, and it will be fine if you get used to it.

Ning Ze looked back at Tao Qing who was looking at them with his chin dragging under the eaves. He had the same face as that person, and it was his favorite. Ning Ze smiled with the corners of his mouth curled up.
