Chapter 879
Cooking also takes time, so I just took advantage of this time to go for a walk in the orchard.

Hu Zi's father confessed to Hu Zi's mother, and then took a few people to watch the orchard.

The orchard is not far from their house, and there is a path passing behind their house.

Xiao'er saw that in the backyard, besides vegetables and chickens, there were also a yellow bark tree, a carambola tree, and a scorpion tree planted at the corner of the fence.

After walking for about a quarter of an hour, you can see a small hill with many lychee trees planted on it, and some red fruits can be seen vaguely on the tree.

Now the fruit period of lychees is almost over, and there are only a few scattered lychees left on the lychee trees.

As soon as they approached the orchard, many dogs barked and rushed towards them.

Hu Zida yelled a few words, and the dogs stopped moving forward, and each turned around and went back to stick to their posts.

"Those dogs were raised by me to guard the orchard. When there were no dogs before, people would always come to steal fruits at night and throw those unripe fruits all over the ground. I thought about this." Ways to prevent someone from stealing the fruit."

Since raising a few dogs, no one dared to steal the fruit.

A few people walked on the path, this path should have been walked out by Huzi's father tending the orchard.

Xiao'er also saw pineapple saplings on the side of the path.

"Uncle still planted aloe vera on the mountain? It's just that the leaves of this aloe vera are so thin?" Zhao Yong bent down to look at the aloe vera on the side of the road, and found a green fruit growing on it: "Huh? Will the aloe vera still bear fruit?"

Xiao'er laughed when she heard Zhao Yong's words: "That's not aloe, it's pineapple, it's pineapple."

"Pineapple! I thought it was aloe." Zhao Yong said shyly.

His children were in the flower field, and he went to the flower field when he was free. He saw aloe vera there, so he thought that these pineapples were also aloe vera.

"Yes, this is a pineapple. The children in the family are young and there is nothing for them to eat, so I will plant some fruit beside it for the children to eat. Unexpectedly, the young lady also recognized it as a pineapple."

This orchard is mainly for lychees, but for the sake of the two children in the family, Huzi’s father also planted some other kinds of fruits in some corners, such as watermelon, cantaloupe, loquat, yellow peel, plum, guava, Carambola, mango, etc. are not planted much, all of which are one or two trees (strains), but this is enough for children to satisfy their greed and for human relations, and the harvest is so good that they can be sold for a little more money when they can't finish eating.

"I'm also from a farming family, and I have an orchard at home, but the climate there can't grow pineapples. But I've seen it in books. Uncle's orchard is well managed. What are your plans for the future?"

"Reading is really good, you can know everything, I, I plan to slowly open up that mountain, plant more longan trees, earn more money, and send Huzi to school." Huzi's father led a few people around Go, while pointing to the hilltop road in the distance.

Xiaoer looked over and saw that the top of the mountain, the trees at the foot of the mountain had been cut down, and two levels of terraced fields had been reclaimed. A little yellow soil could be seen faintly, and a one-meter-high longan was planted every 50 meters or so. The tree, the longan tree has grown very vigorously, apparently it has survived.

In the open space under the longan tree, there was also a plot, on which some vegetables, sweet potatoes and the like were planted.

It was too far away, Xiao'er couldn't see what it was, but these alone were enough to shock Xiao'er.

"Did you all grow this orchard by yourself?" Jing Rui was also shocked.

There are also two barren hills in their hometown in Shengping County, so he knows how difficult it is to drive out the barren hills!
Moreover, Huzi's father's legs are obviously inconvenient.

"That's right, this mountain used to be a barren mountain. My child's mother and I brought the plums. It took three years to finish it. It took five years to get what it is now." Father Huzi looked at the present The orchard in my heart is full of pride.

In another three years, after another mountain top is opened, their family will really live a good life.

Three years later, Meizi will have a dowry when she gets married, and ten years later, Huzi will have a new house when she marries a daughter-in-law!

"Why do you want to grow longan?" Shangguan Xuanyi looked at the orchard, such a diligent person, he decided to help.

"Longan can be dried in the sun, made into longan meat, and sold in medicine shops.

Of course, lychees can also be dried in the sun. Some time ago, Hu Ziniang and I got up at Yinshi every morning, picked three or four hundred catties of fruit and sent them to the county for sale. Dry it on the Internet to make dried lychees, and leave it for children to make snacks. "

"It's great to be your child!" Zhao Yong suddenly felt that he was remiss.

"Being my child can't get enough to eat and don't wear warm clothes, what's the point!" Hu Zi's father smiled wryly after hearing this.

"If you work so hard, you will live a good life in the future. It is true that God rewards hard work! My family used to be very poor, but now I can live a better life. As long as the whole family works together, we will be able to live a better life." Jing Rui sincerely comforted her.

"Yes, as long as you work hard, everyone can live a good life. Our court is good, the emperor is good, and the method of planting fruit trees will be announced, otherwise I will not plant so many fruit trees, so as long as you work hard, you will definitely not starve to death! "

"The imperial court is good, but the measures announced by the imperial court have to be explored and studied by you, and you can adapt to local conditions." Xiao'er said.

She knows best the methods announced by the imperial court. From seedling selection to grafting methods, fertilization, and pruning, although the imperial court has posted many methods for cultivating fruit trees and increasing production, there are not many successful fruit farmers in each state and county.

Many people give up halfway, and success often belongs to those who are more persistent than others, and who are not discouraged after failing several times.

It can be said that most of the successes in the world rely on the accumulation of numerous failures, but there are not many people who can step on those failures as stepping stones and pave the way to a successful building.

However, the policy of the imperial court has made many people rich. In the past few years, the fruit has really been getting more and better every year.

"I have no choice, I have nothing, so I can only reclaim wasteland and plant fruit trees." If he has paddy fields, he also wants to grow rice!With two seasons a year, one mu can harvest nearly [-] catties. Even if there is only one mu of paddy fields, he can harvest [-] catties of grain a year. dinner!

Fortunately, his father-in-law lent him two taels of silver, otherwise he would really have no money to buy the fruit seedlings, so let alone food, he wouldn't even have to eat the fruit.

"You even planted peanuts among these fruit trees!" Jing Rui pointed to the peanut seedlings with small yellow flowers.

"Yes, grow some peanuts to extract oil, and the children love to eat them. We also planted some sweet potatoes, soybeans, and vegetables. The vegetables grown in this mountain area are very sweet. You will pay for it later."

"Okay." Jing Rui responded with a smile.
