this growth

That night, Lao Du's family settled down at the village head's house.

↓

The village head and the boat boss live together, and living in the boat boss is equivalent to living in the village head's house.

The village chief is the elder brother of the boat boss, and he has no children with his wife. After the younger brother and daughter-in-law were killed by Tianlong, they adopted their nephew, who was still young at that time, who became the boat boss's father.

Later, the father of the boat boss also disappeared during the exploration of the sea route, and the old couple raised the boat boss again. Now that they are old, the boat boss forced himself to build his house next to the second elder’s house, and opened up the middle wall. And make a family.

The old Du's family now lives with the ship's old masters. Although the land on the island is precious, the population is not very large, and the size of the houses of each household is not stingy.

"Is the angelica still wrapped in water?" Du Yingying asked Du Nan.

Before the big guy left two drops of "first water" in Du Nan's space before going out, one of the drops fell on Angelica, covering him, and the other turned into a rain, Du Nan's space is still falling rain.

"Well, it's still wrapped in water, so I can't see clearly, but Da Xinglang said it's okay." Du Nan, who was paying close attention to the state of Angelica in the space, replied immediately.

"That's fine. I think this might be the chance for Danggui to come to the east." Du Yingying said, "It might be that Danggui just woke up like this. Just keep an eye on it."

Du Yingying instructed Du Nan to say, and when Du Nan nodded, Du Yingying said again: "Danggui got the water as soon as he arrived here. , the people here are very patient, there are not many things that can help us, I think it might end up on this kind of land, this is my old profession, what should you do and what can you do these days , do it yourself, don’t bother me, I’ll go to farm hard.”

After finishing speaking, she immediately picked up the thing from the storage bag, and did not intend to rest for a moment, Du Yingying was going to start farming.

Du Yingying didn't bring much soil, at most it was the soil on the roots of the plants for mulch. She didn't expect to come to a land where no crops grew in the soil, but she brought a lot of fertilizer and seeds. Of course, The seeds are mainly Duying.

Du Nan has Chu Yang here, and he even offered to give him some milk, but was rejected.

"The soil here is not needed at 01:30. Can the soil on your body replace all the soil here? If not, you have to use the soil here, and don't use the fertilizer first. I will use the soil here to see. "When it comes to farming, Du Yingying is full of domineering aura. Before that, she might ask her daughter to stay and set up a small magic circle for her, to cast a light rain or something. Now she has refined her energy to perfection, and she can master magic spells." Although there are not many, but basically everything needed for farming is available. At that time, Du Yuhan's family of three was sent out, and she also went out, because it was not too late, thinking that it would not be impolite to visit now. Du Yingying directly He went to knock on the door of the owner of the ship next door.

The wife of the boat boss opened the door.

Her name is Xinghua'er, which is a very affectionate name for Lao Du's family.

Like the men here, Xing Hua'er's figure is also tall and fit. Du Yingying's stature is not low, but Xing Hua'er is easily half a head taller than her, but her personality Gentle, when Du Yingying passed by, she was holding a needle and thread in one hand, and holding a piece of clothing in the other, apparently mending it.

Seeing Du Yingying coming, Xinghua'er hurriedly greeted her enthusiastically, and knowing that Du Yingying came here to ask where she could dig some soil, she immediately volunteered to take her there.

"Ms. Du, wait a minute. I'll put Brother Qing's clothes away and I'll take you there," she said.

Du Yingying said: "Then it's hard work for you, I'm really not familiar with the place here, I don't know which places have already been occupied by others, and I want to dig some more soil, so I have to trouble you to lead the way."

Her gaze immediately fell on the clothes in Xinghua's hands: "Since they are Brother Qing's clothes, I don't think you should let them go. Let my son-in-law sew them for you. He is best at this, and it belongs to Brother Qing." He does not shy away from sewing clothes."

As she said that, Du Yingying directly picked up the dress from Xinghua'er and went back to her temporary residence. When she came out again, the clothes in her hands had disappeared. Obviously, she had given the clothes to Zhu Zi Xuan.

Xing Hua'er was secretly amazed.

She has heard from her husband where Du Yingying's family came from. It is said that it is a place where women are in charge of the house, um... Regarding this point, she actually does not have a deep understanding of it. It is because they are also in charge of the house. ah!For example, her family's money is all in her box, or Du Yingying surprised her by saying that her son-in-law can mend clothes.

Her man can't mend clothes.

However, she was polite, and she didn't ask directly when encountering these things. She just smiled and took Du Yingying out, introducing her to the people around her while walking.

Name, seniority, approximate age, personality... Xinghuaer spoke carefully, and Du Yingying listened carefully. It didn't take long for her to discover that the names of this place are very regular!

Men often use the names of various animals, while women's names are various flowers and plants.

"You found it!" Xinghua'er still smiled: "We have nothing but dragons here, the most rare thing other than dragons. Before we found a way to get out, we really didn't see anything. Only Our ancestors left behind a few books with the names and stories of various birds, animals, flowers and birds, and we named them after these. Firstly, we wanted to recognize more characters, and we didn’t want to pretend that there was nothing in this world. Without these things, one would become an ignorant person.”

"That's when I discovered the way out later, and the people in the village could go outside, only then did some people really see the things their names refer to."

"Then have you seen the flower in your name?" Du Yingying asked her.

A blush appeared on Xing Hua'er's dark face, and she smiled even more happily: "I've seen it!"

"Brother Qing's father brought me an apricot flower back when he went outside! Although we can't grow apricot flowers in the soil here, I pressed the apricot flowers on it into pieces and left them. When I want to see them Just look! It looks good!"

Du Yingying said, "Then I'll try planting one later."

Pursing her lips, Du Yingying said, "The reason why I asked you this question just now is because I remembered our hometown."

"We are country people, and our hometown is a place full of apricot trees. Because there are so many apricot trees, there are especially many people named Xinghuaer and Xingzhier."

The name Xinghua'er aroused the old lady's homesickness.

After a brief explanation, Du Yingying didn't feel hurt anymore.

On the contrary, Xing Hua'er was surprised, and then asked her a lot about the village. Although Du Yingying described it plainly, but when she heard that Xing Hua'er was in full bloom, the village seemed to be covered in a cloud of powder. Still the whole person yearns for it.

"It's only this kind of place that can raise a gentle and clean family like you." Xinghua'er sighed.

Uh... In fact, Du Yingying is not white, and Du Nan is not white either. Zhu Zixuan is the only one in his family who is really white, and then there is Angelica in the space, but it is not as good as the people here who live by the sea. , exposed to the wind and the sun all day long, compared with Xinghua'er and the others, Du Yingying was actually reflected as a "white and clean person".

"You guys are better like this. You have great strength and can work. In my opinion, your body is the best." Du Yingying praised this sentence sincerely, because she really thought so.

Because she praised her sincerely, Xinghua'er was even happier. According to Du Yingying's request, she took her to dig several places in succession, including the soil where they usually grow vegetables, and the sandy soil by the sea. There was also the soil under the coconut tree... Du Yingying was satisfied with making a flower pot of the soil that Xing Hua'er felt was a bit different, but in this way, it would be dark when they returned.

They went back with the galaxy.

This was a magnificent star river that she had never seen even in Rabbit Ear Village. Du Yingying couldn't help but stop and look at it for a long time. When she lowered her head again, she saw the captain of the boat who came to pick them up.

Du Yuhan and Zhu Zixuan also came, along with Du Nan and Brother Qing.

Xing Hua'er took a closer look, and Qing Ge'er was wearing the same clothes that Du Yingying snatched and handed to Zhu Zixuan to mend when he went out in the evening.

At that time, she was actually not patching the hole, but lengthening it. Brother Qing was growing fast. After seeing him for so long, his coat and trousers were all shortened. She was still holding the cloth at the time, just to sew a section for him. On the cuffs and pant legs.

The clothes are the most common clothes, and the cloth strips used for extension are also the most common cloth strips. All the women in the village do this. However, the same cloth strips are decorated by Zhu Zixuan in such a way. It is different from the ones I have seen before. up.

The strip of cloth used as an extension was sealed inside the original cuffs by some unknown method. After doing this, it looked as if he was wearing a piece of clothing inside, and before this was over, Zhu Zixuan was actually inside There are many patterns embroidered on the cloth strips!A very regular pattern, like squares, embroidered all over the cuffs, but after being manipulated by him like this, it seems that Brother Qing's clothes are different, and they are much more refined than before!

Xing Hua'er's eyes were straightened—"Sister Xing Hua'er, can you see if this is okay? I don't know what patterns you are used to here, but thinking that Brother Qing is a boy, I used the simplest pattern, It's not for fancy, but I feel that the cloth inside is easy to wear and tear, so I re-reinforced the cloth with embroidery on the outside, saving it from breaking in a month or two..." Seeing her look at the clothes she changed , Zhu Zixuan quickly explained.

No!The cuffs that the women in the village used to extend with the old method broke down in a month!Xinghuaer thought.

She knew that it was a coincidence that she had met a lucky man, so she quickly thanked Zhu Zixuan, thinking that she would definitely ask him for advice in the future.

Qing Geer's mother, Long's Xinghua'er, in private, her hobby is cutting and embroidering flowers!

Knowing the wife's hobbies, the boat boss was also very happy, and asked where they went to get soil, but the boat boss didn't really care much about Du Yingying's behavior in his heart.

After receiving the seeds, it is common to live here and want to grow something.

Seeing that the family of the boat boss and her daughter's family were chatting happily, Du Yingying let the young people chat by themselves. Anyway, she had already got enough soil, so she locked herself in the door, and Du Yingying took out from the space again. The flower pots ← are the ones she brought out from Rabbit Ear Village, but there are more of them later, and she doesn’t throw any of them when she doesn’t need them in the field, and usually puts them all in the storage bag and carries them with her. , No, it will come in handy now?

When collecting soil, it was divided into categories, and now it is still divided into categories when putting soil in flowerpots.

Du Yingying had a pretty good memory, so when it was related to farming, he had to add the word "more".There is no need to mark it. She knows where the soil in each flower pot is taken from. After it is done, she waters it.

The water is given by the captain of the boat. They live by the sea anytime, but they have fresh water.

There are two sources of fresh water in the village: one is precipitation. It rains a lot here, and there are large water tanks on the roofs of every household, which are specially used to catch rainwater. This kind of water is generally used for domestic water, scrubbing, and watering... ... and so on; the other kind goes to the mountains to pick.

There is a mountain on their side, and there is a freshwater lake on the top of the mountain, and there are small streams winding down the mountain. The water in it is very sweet, and this is the water they usually drink.

Du Yingying used the first type of water. As early as on the road, she asked Xinghua'er what water she usually used for farming. She used it, and after the two met, she asked Brother Qing to carry two tanks for her.

↑

That's right, it's Brother Qing.

This is probably the difference between their side and the outside. In other places, children as old as Brother Qing also help the family with work, but their strength is limited, and the local area is different. The dolls also do heavy work like carrying water in the mountains. It is said that the dolls in the village start doing these things from the age of seven or eight.

"It's not heavy work here, it's the lightest little job at home!" Xing Hua'er covered her mouth and laughed.

Le Wan also pointed to Brother Qing: "If there is any work like this in the future, I will let Brother Qing do it."

Du Yingying was stunned, and finally looked at Du Nan: "It's okay, I also have Du Nan here, let Du Nan do it."

So until this day, Du Nan finally started a new life that is different from the male dolls in Rabbit Ear Village and even Xiaocang Realm.

Leaving Du Nan aside, let's look at Du Yingying first.

After treating the soil in the flowerpot, instead of planting the seeds distributed to her by the village, she planted Du Ying in the flowerpot.

That's right, it was Du Ying who she had been serving for half her life.

Du Yingying had her own reasons for choosing to plant Duying.

It was precisely because of her understanding that she chose Du Ying. She planned to use Du Ying as a reference. How would Du Ying react after a few days of planting... After planting, carefully observe the reaction of these Duying species in the soil here. After about eight days, she has a better understanding of the local soil.

It is indeed saline-alkali land, but the soil in different places is also different. Although her duying does not grow well in all flowerpots, there are "especially bad" and "generally bad" among the bad. "Come on, in this way, according to the experience of planting Duying on weekdays, Du Yingying first figured out the local soil distribution.

Just a rough idea!

She planted Du Ying, and also planted other species. Naturally, she knew that some soil might not be suitable for planting Du Ying, but it might be suitable for others. So, after learning about the soil, Du Yingying carefully bred the seeds distributed to him by the village. , depending on the species, in the soil most likely to suit them.

She didn't fertilize rashly.

Because she also discovered at the same time that although the local land is saline-alkali land, it is definitely not barren.

In fact, if you think about it carefully, you will understand-the sea is surrounded by the local area, and the sea is full of dragons, dragon fat!As long as the dragon's poop is not as useless as the qilin's poop (←here refers to the poop that the unicorns pull outside Dunan's space), it must be very fat!Being soaked in such a high concentration of dragon manure for a whole year, more than half of it is not guaranteed to be full of dragon manure. Secondly, there are basically no crops in the local area. What does it mean to not grow crops?It means no effort!

Fertilizing every day without consumption, the land here is too fat!It is so fat that there are so many common seedlings that they die.

I think so, it is obviously an ordinary cucumber seedling, if you insist on pouring dragon fertilizer on it, this person probably still has blessings that he can’t enjoy, and the crops also have it!

This land is a blessing that ordinary crops cannot enjoy.

This scene, in the eyes of local people who are not good at farming, becomes "the local soil is barren". It's just - she, Du Yingying, is here now.

After realizing the problem of the soil here, Du Yingying planted various seeds into the soil by category, and buried several additional Duying species in each flowerpot.

The blessings that cucumbers and tomatoes cannot enjoy, but the first-class Duying can enjoy!If she can't enjoy a first-grade Duying tree, she will plant three or ten trees, and if it is impossible, she will plant a super-grade Duying tree. Doesn't she have Du Yingying?

Having planted Du Ying for half his life, he can be called a great expert in this field, but Du Yingying has accumulated a considerable number of high-quality Du Ying species.

So, she buried her head in her own small room all day long, only seeing people other than Lao Du's family in a cloud of mist, eating a bigu pill when she was hungry, and cooking some rainwater for pouring vegetables when she was thirsty. I lived in the "ground" of the room, and only opened the skylight on the top of the room to let the sunlight in from time to time... After half a month like this, when I came out again, Du Yingying was holding two flower pots in her hands .

One pot is full of fruitful tomatoes, and the other is full of green seedlings.
