seed world

Chapter 2 Orphans and Widows

Gu Ran happily returned home with the seeds in his arms. He spent less time than he planned, so he entered the house early, but his mother hadn't come back yet.

It was still early, and there was still more than an hour before lunch. Although there was enough time, Gu Ran didn't plant the hairpin immediately.

The crops in the backyard are all mature, and he has to hurry up to harvest. After a while, the grocery store guy who ordered a few days ago will come to pick up the goods.

In order to supplement the household, Gu Ran attached great importance to this matter, and he was unwilling to delay, so he first put away the precious hairpin seeds, changed into coarse cloth, and went to the backyard.

Although Mrs. Gu is a widow with a child, but because of her strong personality and careful planning, the mother and son's young life is not bad.

Early in the morning, she went to the field to collect the newly matured cotton thread, brought back a large bundle, and then started to weave cloth with the loom. It is the biggest source of livelihood for her and Gu Ran.

Although cloth seeds are sold in the trading area, the price of the seeds is slightly higher, about three times that of cotton seeds of the same quality.Rich people naturally don't care about the price difference. After all, the quality rate of the material grown with cloth seeds is much higher, but ordinary people are reluctant to spend more money.

It is precisely because of this that small businesses and hawkers can earn some price difference, and Gu's can also earn money by paying labor.

The cotton thread seeds planted seven days ago have a very good survival rate, so Gu’s time to collect cotton thread has been a little longer today, but she is happy if it takes longer, these are the seeds sown by Gu Ran, and the high survival rate shows that her son’s breeding ability is getting better Great, this is a good thing for the son who is going to register for the ethnology.

Gu's returned home in a good mood, and as soon as he entered the door, he saw Gu Ran coming out of the backyard.

The young man was dressed in a green and blue coarse cloth, which was a little soiled because he had just returned from the field, but even so, his white arms under the rolled-up sleeves were extra attractive.Gu sighed slightly in her heart, fortunately the scars on her son's face were also conspicuous, otherwise she would really worry about letting him go to study by himself.

"I told you not to let you do this. You plant cotton thread at night and raise these wooden barrels during the day. How tired are you? Our family is not short of your money now. If you have time, read more books." Gu said Carrying a large bundle of cotton thread, I couldn't help but start talking.

"Mom, you're back!" Gu Ran greeted and put the wooden bucket hanging on his arm on the ground, went to take the bundle of cotton thread on Gu's back, and said with a smile: "It's okay, this is also repairing habit……"

"Don't lie to me, I really don't understand anything!" Mrs. Gu scolded her son while piling up the cotton thread, "The source energy of these wooden barrel seeds is almost negligible, and you have planted them so many times. , and there is nothing to improve the skills... Now that so much time is wasted planting, it is not for some money."

What the mother said was right, but Gu Ran couldn't reply, so he could only sell it cleverly: "No matter how little it is, it's meat, mother, I'm not tired, and I'm idle if I'm idle. It's good to plant some wooden barrels."

When Gu Ran said this, Gu's heart was soft, and the child was sensible. She was very happy, but at the same time, she couldn't help but feel a little sour in her heart. After all, it was her fault, and she couldn't give him better conditions...

Gu Ran knew his mother very well. Although she was tough outside, she was very 'sentimental' to him. He was afraid that his mother would get into trouble, so he quickly changed the topic: "Mother, the orange flour I planted a few days ago is ripe. Yes, I collected a big bag, you can give me pancakes for lunch!"

The Gu family loved his son the most, and he always happily agreed to his small requests, so he immediately calmed down and poked his forehead: "Little glutton, wait, mother will bake it for you!"

Gu's words and deeds were ruthless, and she got up and went to the kitchen as soon as she packed the cotton thread.

Gu Ran didn't follow, he still had to sort out these more than a dozen wooden barrels, large and small.

While polishing the blemishes around the barrel, Gu Ran sighed slightly in his heart.

Mother thought that these wooden barrel seeds had a trace of source energy, but in fact, there was none at all.

With more and more source gas accumulated in his body, these very low-level crops have rarely allowed him to collect source gas. Even the cotton thread seeds planted in large quantities, the source gas that can be collected recently is also very little. Pitiful.

But there is no way, the family's finances are tight, most of the seeds rich in origin qi are expensive, not to mention reluctant to part with them, even if they go bankrupt, their family can't afford a single one.

But fortunately, he only needs to accumulate 530 pulses of origin qi for enrolment. After so many years of hard work, he finally collected [-] pulses, which is not too much, but it barely reached the minimum enrollment threshold, so he can sign up.

As he thought about it, Gu Ran gradually became relieved. As long as he entered the ethnology, he would have more resources. When he worked hard, the accumulation of origin qi would be faster and faster. When he graduated, he would definitely have more resources. He is very promising, maybe he can also wear the green jade clothes and hang the seed bag!

At that time, mother will not have to work so hard!

The more I think about it, the more beautiful I feel, and the more motivated Gu Ran becomes.

About half an hour later, the clerk from the grocery store came to receive the goods, and Gu Ran handed over all the barrels to him to inspect the goods one by one.

The guy was acquainted, looked at the wooden barrels and said with a smile: "Xiao Ran is getting better and better, the number of this batch of wooden barrels is more than last time, and the survival rate of the seeds is getting higher and higher!"

Before Gu Ran could speak, Gu Shi, who heard the sound, spoke up first: "Xiao Lizi, go back and tell your father, don't look for my son anymore, there are too many people who can grow wooden barrels, what are you doing?" Why do you have to hold on to Xiaoran!"

They are all from the same town, and Xiao Lizi was not angry, he just smiled and handed the copper coins to Gu Ran, and then replied: "We are investing in advance, and only Xiao Ran on this street is eligible to sign up for the ethnology. Maybe there will be big prospects in the future, I will collect some wooden barrels he personally planted in advance, and I will definitely sell them for a lot of money later!"

What he said was just flattery, and Gu knew it, but she just liked her son being praised, so she couldn't help raising the corners of her mouth. Although her mouth was still unforgiving, she wrapped an orange shortbread and threw it To Xiao Lizi: "As long as you have a poor mouth, just take it out of the oven and eat it on the road."

As soon as Xiao Lizi smelled it, he knew what it was, and immediately beamed with joy: "Oh, Aunt Gu, your craftsmanship is so good, why don't you stop weaving and open a restaurant, and I'm sure Sifang Town will be popular."

Gu smiled and said, "Okay, no matter how poor you are, I can't give you one more, Xiaoran hasn't tasted it yet!"

Xiao Lizi chuckled and looked at Gu Ran in a blink of an eye.

Although Gu Ran didn't interrupt, his eyes were always squinted. He was in a good mood listening to them talking.

And when Xiao Lizi turned his head, he happened to see the corner of his slightly curved mouth, and his heart jumped uncontrollably.

Gu Ran was aware of his gaze, looked up at him, and said with a smile: "Brother Li, the money is correct, and the barrel is correct, too?"

Xiao Lizi came back to his senses, coughed twice before saying: "Yes, yes, then I'll go first, Auntie, Xiao Ran, you should eat quickly too." After finishing speaking, he pulled up the wooden barrel and ran very fast.

Gu Ran didn't notice anything, and Gu Shi didn't think much about it, just laughed and cursed: "You're not young, and you're still frizzy."

But he said that Xiao Lizi went straight for two or three miles, and his heart was still pounding.

To be honest, he has known Gu Ran for more than ten years. He knew that he had injuries on his face since he was a child. He seemed to have teased him ignorantly when he was a child. Even now that he has grown up, he has never looked at his appearance seriously. After all, The deep-rooted thought in his mind was that there was a scar on Gu Ran's face, and he was not in the mood to look at it.

It's just that just now, maybe it's because of the angle, maybe it's because the noon sun is too bright, that glance from top to bottom made him unable to see the scar, and only noticed his red lips.

It's so beautiful!Little Lizi, who was still ignorant, had a fever on his face all the way.

Even when he got home, he was still regretting, if Gu Ran didn't hurt his face when he was a child...

As soon as this thought came up, Xiao Lizi quickly patted himself again.

What are you thinking about? Even if you didn't hurt your face, Gu Ran is still a boy, so I think too much!

Not to mention Xiao Lizi's slightly crooked boyish heart, when he returned to Gu's house, Gu Shi and Gu Ran had already started eating.

This orange flour is nothing in Luoqing City, but in a small place like Sifang Town, it is something new.

This orange flour species is a hybrid variety. It is impossible to verify which master invented it. I only know that it seems to be a combination of orange tree species and flour species. It cleverly combines the nutritional essence of the two species, and the taste is stronger than ordinary flour. much.

There is a faint orange aroma, but it is not overly sweet, and the flour is smoother, which is good for desserts.

It's just that for the Gu family, eating dessert is a bit extravagant, so Gu's invented the orange-flavored pancake, which can fully release the taste of orange flour and fill the stomach beautifully, so Gu's and Gu Ran ate it to their heart's content.

After eating enough, Mrs. Gu began to get busy with weaving.

And Gu Ran finally had time to study that precious hairpin.

From the point of view of breeding, the afternoon is a better time for breeding. Although the sun is softer and the air is clearer in the morning, the temperature is not so mild, and there is a hot and dry noon period.

There are also some disadvantages in the afternoon, but because you will experience a whole quiet night after successful breeding, so as long as you do a good job of keeping warm, it is very suitable for seed growth.

Gu Ran no longer hesitated. After all, he didn't have much time. He prepared the spring water collected from the mountain and injected it with a source of energy, and he started breeding.

The author has something to say: Let me introduce this article a little bit. Shou is a native, no time travel, no rebirth, a 16-year-old boy, so this is a slowly growing article, and the pace may not be as fast as before, but this time I want to try to write in detail, carefully outline a world, and live up to any setting.

Of course, I also hope that everyone can be more tolerant of little Gu Ran. After all, he is just a young boy with little experience, so he is definitely not so cool and domineering. But I hope to watch him grow up slowly and enjoy the whole life together The process is also a lot of fun, right!
