Farmer's ancient daily life

A Duqin: "So that's how it is."

He hadn't paid attention to grain prices before, so it seems reasonable to say that.

The frontiers of the two countries do not produce grain, and the herdsmen who live there have to buy it from other places. In this way, it is understandable that the price of grain is more expensive.

Back home, Fang Mingfeng saw the empty courtyard entrance, and suddenly said: "Uncle, what do you think of planting two trees at the entrance of our courtyard? Looking at the entrance of the courtyard now, I always feel a bit empty."

Uncle looked in the direction he pointed.The small courtyard is still the same one, but the small tree in front of the door probably died of freezing in winter, and now there is only a thin stick left, which seems to be unable to survive.

Now it seems that it is indeed a bit empty: "It's up to you, you can see what seeds you have on hand, and you can plant anything."

Fang Mingfeng nodded, agreeing to this incident.In the past, there was an unknown tree growing at the door. It was just a thin sprout, but now that it is dead, it can be replaced by a fruit tree.

Although fruit trees grow slowly, they can still be sweet to the mouth when they are ready to bloom and bear fruit.

Fang Mingfeng returned to the house, and began to look for the fruit tree seeds he had kept in the box before.

It was given to him by Big Brother Bai before, and I don't know where it is placed.

After rummaging through boxes and cabinets for a while, Fang Mingfeng finally found the small bag of seeds from the corner.

Looking at the mark I made, it should be the seed of a jujube tree.

Jujube fruits are many but not sweet, but if people plant them, and when they bloom and bear fruit, all the redundant and too thin fruits are picked off to prevent them from growing, then the fruits will grow sweet and delicious when they finally ripen .

I dug two holes not far from the door with a hoe, planted the seeds, and then watered to cover the soil.In this way, the jujube tree will be planted.

Jujube trees don't pick the land to grow, as long as they are planted, they will probably survive.Therefore, Fang Mingfeng was not worried that the seeds would not survive after being planted.

If the mountain jujubes can't survive, then the land probably won't be able to grow any fruit trees.

In spring, the turf grows again, the cattle and sheep are driven out to graze by rhubarb, and my uncle also goes out for a walk.

According to Uncle A’s words: “With Rhubarb here, I don’t need to do any work. I just watch them along the way. If there is any problem, Rhubarb and the cubs can solve it by themselves, and I don’t need it.”

"Why are you so worried at such a young age? I don't know how long I have been on the grassland. How can I lose myself?"

Although Uncle Ah said so, but the two children wanted to let him rest, and his heart was very warm.

In any case, he couldn't stay at home all the time without going out.A few days ago, he stayed at home and didn't go out, and he didn't have to do any work. His bones had loosened a lot throughout the day.

In this way, Fang Mingfeng has no reason to let Uncle stay at home to rest: "In that case, Uncle, you can go."

Uncle said this, naturally he has a deep understanding of this grassland.Uncle can't lose it when he goes out, but they may not be able to find the way back when they go out.

After Uncle left, only Fang Mingfeng and A Duqin were left at home.

Fang Mingfeng planted the seeds, stepped on the surrounding soil, and then went into the house to look for A Duqin.

"Xiaoman, I'll go to the melon field to see how the seedlings are emerging. When I come back later, do you want to go with me?"

A Duqin suddenly heard him calling himself Xiaoman, and paused for a moment.I haven't used this Chinese name a few times since I got it, but now I suddenly hear the name Xiaoman, and I can't react for a while.

"Okay, okay, I'll go too. There's nothing to do at home anyway." After the firewood was chopped and the kitchen was cleaned up, Rhubarb and Uncle went out to herd the sheep, and Fang Lili fell asleep again.

There is indeed nothing to keep busy at home, so instead of sitting down and idling, it is better to go to the melon patch together.

"Let's go." Fang Mingfeng turned around and went to look for a hoe behind the door, took the hoe and shovel and carried it on his shoulders, Fang Mingfeng said: "Calculating the time, our melon seedlings should all grow by now."

A Duqin was curious: "Do the melon seedlings grow very fast?" It's only been three or four days, and the seeds of the fruit trees that fell in the previous autumn will not grow very tall.

Fang Mingfeng couldn't help laughing when he heard his words, and said: "Yes, melon seedlings grow much faster than fruit trees. It takes several years for fruit trees to grow into flowers and bear fruit, but it only takes one year for melon seedlings to ripen."

"So this is ah."

A Duqin was born and grew up in the borderlands, and knows nothing about growing fruits and melons.The people he saw lived by grazing, and very few of them depended on farming for food.

Therefore, it was understandable that he didn't know about Fang Mingfeng.After all, he had never seen it before, so how could he be expected to know everything.

The two went to the melon field, and saw green seedlings emerging from the field after a long distance.

Looking at the pleasing green color, Fang Mingfeng couldn't help speeding up his pace.If this crop of seedlings grows well, there is no need to replant them.

In the ditch of the ridged land, there is a small piece of green seedlings a few inches apart. At this time, only two leaves have grown, and they shake slightly when the wind blows. It is very cute to look at.

Walking along the ridge, Fang Mingfeng carefully watched the growth of the melon seedlings, and at the same time explained to A Duqin: "Look here, it's usually enough to grow like this, and the more seedlings need to be pulled out. pull."

"These seedlings have to be pulled out too? Isn't it bad for the melon seedlings to grow too much? Why did you pull them out?" A Duqin didn't know anything about this, so he could only ask him.

Fang Mingfeng explained patiently: "Think about it, this land is so big, and there are only so many things in the soil that can grow melons and fruits. If they are all full of seedlings, then these seedlings must compete with each other, right? no?"

A Duqin understands a little bit, but doesn't quite understand: "If it grows too much, they will fight for it. If there are few seedlings, they won't fight. The melons that grow will grow bigger?"

"Yes," Fang Mingfeng tapped the land with his fingers: "And it will grow very sweet. If you sell it like this, you don't have to worry about no one buying it."

It was only then that A Duqin suddenly realized, and was eager to try: "I understand. Those seedlings were pulled out by hand, so I'll pull them all out now!"

Fang Mingfeng described to him the seedlings that needed to be pulled out, seeing how vigorously he was squatting on the ground, he couldn't help but smile.

This kind of Xiaoman is innocent and cute, much more cheerful than the careful Aduqin when he first picked it up.

Fang Mingfeng stood up and patted his head.A Duqin's soft hair ran through his fingers, itching a little.

"Okay, you pull out the seedlings here, and I'll go to the other side to have a look." Although it faces north and south, the seedlings on the other side may not be the same as this side.

He strode away and walked in the other direction.
