Xianggong farming

Chapter 193
But... Qi Dalang became a little wary when he heard Mrs. Hu's joke.Thinking back to the behavior of the woman from the Qian family, a widow who always runs to other people's homes is indeed not a good woman. She has to guard against such a woman, otherwise she will make her daughter-in-law feel bad.

Qian Qiulan didn't know all of her calculations, but because Mrs. Hu was half joking and half reminding her, she ended up having a miscarriage.

After returning home, many relatives left, and after the house where Aunt Qi was going to live was tidied up and moved there, it was already the first month of the lunar year.Because of the beginning of spring, the weather became hotter, and there were three other families who planted mushrooms together. The shiitake mushrooms, pure mushrooms and black fungus all had a promising future.Because there are too many, Jiang Jialei sent a letter, asking to buy all the dried mushrooms at the same price as last time.

Ji Xinmiao knew why the Jiang family bought the dried mushrooms made by themselves, because this baking technology was not invented in this era, and the dried mushrooms dried in the sun in previous years could not be compared with it.

Hearing this news, Lin Chenglai, Li Deng, and Fan Qi gathered at Ji Xinmiao's place, and the four brothers got very drunk.

It's already February, because they want to plant cotton for the Jiang family, and they want to try growing watermelons, so Ji Xinmiao and Qi Dalang are very busy this first month.

First, he asked the head of the village to buy a piece of wasteland not far from Qi's house. The land was not too wide, maybe only twenty acres of land.The geology is not good, so I bought it for only five taels of silver.The crops in this world are not rich, and the soil is semi-sandy. Farmers don't like to open it, because they can't get a good harvest when they grow ordinary crops.

But for Ji Xinmiao, she thinks this is really a good place.Because the wasteland with water is mainly semi-sandy and acidic, it is a good soil for growing watermelons.The other part is hard foot mud, and houses can be built here in the future.

There is a small lake in the wasteland, and the wasteland is connected to a low barren mountain. There is also a small stream on the side of the barren mountain, which flows continuously all year round.It's really a good place with mountains and rivers. Ji Xinmiao has a lot of ideas about this land.She has seen it several times and has been thinking about it. Although it is a little bit off, she likes it very much.

The head of the village, Liu Xiuwen, kindly reminded the couple: "Da Lang, don't blame Uncle for not reminding you. That land is not a place where you can grow things. Especially in flood years, it is even more difficult to get a harvest. The lake is in that piece of land, since you bought that piece of land, the lake also belongs to you.”

Qi Dalang had heard his wife's plan a long time ago. This kind of soil is a good soil for growing pumpkins. If it really encounters severe waterlogging, there is nothing to do.If it was Xiaoluo, he had made up his mind a long time ago, and he would be fine if he asked someone to take a deep ditch to connect it to the creek.With deep ditches, it can be used not only as a source of irrigation water, but also to dredge waterlogged water.

So he smiled gratefully: "Uncle Tun, thank you very much. It's just this piece of land. A friend asked me to buy it. He said he wanted to grow something fresh. It's just that this thing is in our place. The land has never been planted before. He is afraid that the price of buying the land is too high, and if he fails to plant it, then he will lose all his money. So, I’d better buy it. He said that this land is worthless, and the land It can only be planted for one year, and this land will belong to us in the future.”

There is not much silver in this land, and there are no good products.So when Qi Dalang said to use this land to grow new things, Liu Xiuwen's eyes lit up: "Da Lang, what kind of new things are those?"

Qi Dalang said with a simple and honest face: "Uncle Tun, I just heard him say what it is called a melon, which means something similar to the melons and cucumbers that are usually grown in farmers' homes. It seems that there are none here. He wants to catch them." It’s fresh, let’s see if it can be sold in the province.”

Hearing that it was these things, Liu Xiuwen didn't have that kind of inquisitive mind anymore. Rich people like to eat something delicious. That's not what I, a countryman like me, can understand, so I didn't persuade him any more.

The land was bought, but Liu Xiuwen was still surprised when writing the land deed.Of course it wasn't just him who was surprised, when Qi Dalang put the land deed in Ji Xinmiao's hands, she also opened her mouth in surprise.

"Why is my name on this title deed?"

Qi Dalang scratched and laughed: "I bought it with your dowry silver, of course you have to write your name."

What words?Once a woman in this world gets married, she doesn't even have her own surname, and her name becomes XX.This silly man, is he using his actions to move her?

"Are you not afraid that I will run away with the title deed?"

Such a cute little girl, Qi Dalang felt very happy, he hugged her and said: "Take me with you wherever you go, I have kung fu, and I can help you beat the bad guys away!"

Ji Xinmiao glanced at him and turned his eyes white: "You are so beautiful! Where can I bully anyone? If you don't want to do it, you can kill someone!"

"Hahaha... baby, do you know how cute you are?" Qi Dalang laughed so hard when he saw the appearance of the little daughter-in-law.

Ji Xinmiao was listless, this man thought she was playing tricks!Because when she was bullied by Lin Er on the mountain for the first time, her flamboyant fists and embroidered legs left a deep impression on him!But when she was showing her power by the river, he didn't see her!For a moment, she felt aggrieved in her heart: sister is not a rich lady, sister is a female man, do you know that!

But, does he know what a female man is?

Forget it, men like women who are small and tender, especially in front of this machismo-dominated man, since he likes it, then she might as well be his little bird once, and let him be embarrassed once.

A woman is happy when a man hurts, right?

I am a little landlady!Although this landlady is a little small, she is one step closer to becoming a big landlady.Carefully collecting the land deed, Ji Xinmiao put her hands on Qi Dalang's waist full of joy, raised her sparkling eyes and asked, "You said, I can plant anything on this land?"

Looking into those eyes, how could Qi Dalang say no?

"Of course it's up to you! But it's up to you to grow the land outside, but it's up to me to grow the land in our house!"

Immediately, Ji Xinmiao's face turned into a red cloth!
Qi Dalang planted his own land at night, and the next day under Ji Xinmiao's order, he invited several young farmer households in the village to help shovel the grass and cultivate the land.Ji Xinmiao asked them to dry the shoveled turf and use it as plant ash, because it is a good fertilizer for growing cotton and watermelons.She plans to grow watermelons on the open land.

"Sir, remember to plow deeply."

"Got it, you've said it several times! I'm also a farmer. The ground is an inch deep, and I've been dung all over it. I understand the truth. Don't worry." Qi Dalang looked at the worried little daughter-in-law and smiled. comfort her.

Although Qi Dalang agreed in his mouth, Ji Xinmiao felt aggrieved again: This man thinks she is long-winded?However, has she really become more verbose as she gets older?No, she had to try to make him understand that women are born to chatter!Otherwise, what should I do if I make him feel disgusted?
