Rebirth of Okuki Kofuro

Zhao Hongmei and Zhuang Chengzhi always thought that their son was smart, and believed that if Zhuang Chenghong was willing to spend his mind on studying, he would definitely surpass Liang Kangsheng in the future, so they were very concerned about Zhuang Chenghong's reading situation.

Today Zhuang Chenghong was injured on his right wrist. His right hand would affect his writing, and writing might affect the results of the scientific examination. Thinking of the series of possible consequences in the future, Zhao Hongmei immediately made a fuss in the Zhao family regardless.

Everyone didn't expect that a few children would fight like this just now. Seeing that Zhuang Chenghong's wrist was seriously injured, he couldn't even bother to eat. He was asking for a doctor and teaching other children. The noise was seen and remembered by the other sons-in-law and brother-in-law who came back to the Zhao family.

In the end, Zhao Hongmei didn't make any trouble, because the doctor said that although the injury on the wrist looked scary, it was actually not serious. The child's elders gave another sum of money, which made Zhao Hongmei lose the confidence to continue making trouble.

A small injury caused thunder and rain, and Zhao Hongmei didn't have the face to stay in the Zhao family. She used the excuse of going back to recuperate and the family left in disgrace. Of course, the Zhao family was not happy.

In fact, the injury on Zhuang Chenghong's wrist was not caused by the fight in Zhao's house. It was mainly because he hit it in the Liang's house on the [-]th day. At that time, he had a secret injury. Today, he got his wrist again when he scuffled with the children of Zhao's family. It just broke out suddenly.

However, Zhao Hongmei didn't know the real reason for her son's hand injury, so she didn't go to Liang's house this time. After returning from Zhao's house, she devoted herself to taking care of her son's hand. After all, the school would start soon. Can't read and write.

Zhuang Qingze chose to leave Yang'an County on the fifth day of the Lunar New Year with bank notes and people. He still planned to buy fabrics when he went out this time. If he couldn't go to Ningdu, he would go to a few other places rich in fabrics. He could always buy something that satisfied him. .

If Zhuang Qingze didn't go to the Liang family, the life of the Liang family naturally calmed down. The difference was that Liang Kangsheng no longer went to the winery with Liang's father after the Chinese New Year, because this year's government examination was about to start, he started exercising again in the morning and evening, and read books and made articles during the day.

In previous years, the weather started to warm up after the Chinese New Year, but this year's weather was a bit strange. It was warmer for more than ten days after the Chinese New Year, and then suddenly became cold in mid-to-late January.

This morning, Liang Kangsheng and Qu Yi went out for a walk as usual, Zhuang looked at the sky outside and reminded them to put on more clothes and come back early, she always felt like it was going to rain.

After listening to Mrs. Zhuang's words, put on an extra layer of clothes before going out. Qu Yi rubbed her hands, feeling that it is indeed cold outside, and the sky is also gloomy: "The weather has already warmed up and then it suddenly turns cold. I think many people will not be able to adapt to it." , but these are trivial matters, seeing that the spring plowing is about to begin, I don’t know if it will affect the spring plowing.”

Liang Kangsheng kept frowning after he went out. After hearing what Qu Yi said, he suddenly thought of what he had been thinking about but couldn't remember just now: "Brother Yi, I remembered something. I read a book before. It is said that abnormal changes in the weather will bring disasters, and this spring has been hot and cold, and I remember that something really happened this year."

The word "previous year" sounded a little awkward, but Qu Yi could understand that Liang Kangsheng was referring to the year in his previous life, and recalled it carefully, he didn't think there was anything wrong.

Disasters refer to natural disasters and man-made disasters. In Quyi's impression, the country was peaceful and the people were peaceful and the weather was smooth in his previous life. Even if there were natural disasters, he had only heard of small-scale floods and droughts, and none of them affected Daojiang Province, let alone Yang'an County.

At this time in his last life, Liang Kangsheng fell ill because of the alternating hot and cold weather. At that time, he was lying in bed and reading idle books. He saw this description in a book, and he didn’t take it seriously at first. , It wasn't until the autumn harvest that he heard the uncle in charge of the winery say that the grain output was low and the grain harvest was expensive, so he paid attention to the matter and paid attention to it.

Because he lacked energy and was inconvenient to go out during the filial piety period, he only learned from Liang Duodao that after planting the seedlings in spring, it was cold again, freezing to death and damaging many seedlings, which eventually led to a decrease in autumn harvest.

Liang Kangsheng just asked, and after learning that the reduction in production in Yang'an County was not serious, he left it alone.

But if you think about it carefully, for a well-off family like them, the reduction in food production and the increase in food prices are just more money to buy food. For some poor families, the reduction in food production may affect their lives for one or even two years.

Liang Kangsheng remembered this incident, and after he said it, Qu Yi also had an impression. He remembered that when he went back to see his parents at the end of the year in his previous life, it seemed that his parents mentioned that there was little food at home, but because of Qu Yi's Both the Meng family and the Meng family were doing well, so Qu Yi didn't do anything.

Looking at the pensive Liang Kangsheng, Qu Yi felt that he seemed to care a lot: "Sir, what do you think?"

Liang Kangsheng thought for a while: "I'll go back and see if there are any books that introduce this in detail. If I can help everyone, I will help. Growing food is not easy. It all depends on God's will. If you can harvest more food, you can feed more people." people."

Qu Yi felt that Liang Kangsheng had a good idea: "Then I will help you."

Keeping this matter in mind, Liang Kangsheng found all the idle books at home after he went back. Under Liang Kangsheng's teaching, Qu Yi couldn't understand books that were too profound, but he could understand simple ones. He helped Liang Kangsheng find them. Books are much faster.

After reading all the books at home, Liang Kangsheng finally found the book that said abnormal weather would bring disasters, but it didn't explain how to resolve it.

Thinking that planting crops is farming, Liang Kangsheng and Qu Yi went to the county seat, found a few bookstores and bought all the books on farming, hoping to find solutions to the problem in these books.

From late January to mid-February, the crops planted in the Liang family's fields were completely harvested, and the people who came to the Liang family to work went back to their respective villages to busy with spring plowing. Qu Yi and Liang Kangsheng finally found the frozen seedlings in a book. describe.

The book says that if the weather turns cold suddenly, to protect the seedlings from freezing, you can spread a layer of straw, hay, etc. on the seedlings in advance to keep warm, so that the young seedlings are not easy to freeze.

At the same time, this book also says that if the seedlings that have been damaged by frost must be dealt with as soon as possible, the bad seedlings cannot be allowed to rot in the ground, because this may cause other seedlings that have not been damaged by frost to also be damaged, and the frozen Even if the seedlings are not frozen to death, they will not grow as strong as the unfrozen seedlings in the later stage.

Because weather changes are not easy to predict, and often occur at night, it is difficult for people to notice, so once the weather turns cold, it is very likely that frozen seedlings will occur. In fact, there is only one solution at this time - that is to replant, broken ones Although the seedlings are replanted as soon as possible, although the output will be affected due to the late planting, the loss is smaller.

Liang Kangsheng and Qu Yi didn't know much about farming. They felt that this book made sense, and it was more useful to prevent freezing in advance than to find a way to remedy it after freezing.

But the question is how do they tell others that they can "predict" it will get colder?Liang Kangsheng and Qu Yi are not the kind of people who know how to farm the land, and if they say it without evidence, no one will believe it.

After thinking about it, Quyi and Liang Kangsheng decided to use the mouth of the Meng family to tell the news. The Qu family can tell the second uncle and let him figure it out.

Taking some time to go back to Meng's house quickly, Liang Kangsheng and Father Meng talked about this year's weather like a normal chat.

Father Meng looked at Liang Kangsheng's still slightly thin body, hesitated for a while and decided to say something straight: "Kangsheng, your body is not as strong as those of us who work every day. Remember to add clothes in time when the weather is cold. Niu said that you are going to take some kind of college exam soon, so you can't relax."

Father Meng frowned: "Speaking of which, this year's spring farming is not as warm as in previous years. I always feel that there is something wrong with the weather this year. I don't know what God planned."

Liang Kangsheng didn't expect that Father Meng would bring it up first without saying anything. He asked curiously, "Grandpa, do you know the weather?"

"I don't have the ability to read the weather." Father Meng knocked on the wood in his hand, and said casually, "As old farmers, what we care about most all day long is whether the crops in the field can fill our stomachs, and the crops are not good enough. The harvest depends entirely on the face of God, and the weather will naturally pay more attention to it. I can only say that I am so-so, and I have lived a long time to see more experience. I really know the weather, and I can tell if it will rain with a little wind. .”

Liang Kangsheng thought what Father Meng said was very interesting, so he asked, "Then tell me, if it suddenly gets cold again later, will it affect the crops in the field?"

"If the weather continues to be cold like this, it will have a great impact. The seedlings planted in the field will not grow when it is cold..." Father Meng saw that Liang Kangsheng was interested in farming, and thought about the more than 100 acres his family bought. On the ground, I talked to him a few more words about how to "deal with" God.

Liang Kangsheng listened carefully. He had read in a book that the solution to the cold weather was to cover the seedlings with straw, hay, etc., while Father Meng said that the method taught by their ancestors was to directly cover the seedlings with mud.

In farmhouses, straw is used to make beds, make straw mats, twist ropes, weave straw sandals, make door curtains, make roofs, etc., and dry grass is used to light fires. It is very useful, and some people do not have enough straw.

The old farmers did not have much straw or hay, so they thought of using mud on the spot, not to mention the convenience. When the weather is warmer, just pull the mud away.

These farming experiences have been passed down from generation to generation. It is not a big secret in the countryside. Hardworking old farmers know more or less. Be applicable.

This trip was originally intended to remind the Meng family that the weather would suddenly change after the spring plowing ended, but after chatting with Father Meng, Liang Kangsheng felt that he didn't need to remind at all, because everyone had already noticed.
