Traveling through the money-making life of a small peasant girl

Chapter 499 Spring Sowing
After returning from Zhou Xiaojiu's house, a few days passed, and finally it was the day of spring sowing. People said that there would be no transplanting in May, and there would be a period of time between planting and seedling maturity. In order to match the growth period of seedlings, spring sowing is the best day. There can be no delay.

In the morning, Shen Zhuo plowed the field that was going to be used as a seedling field, and in the afternoon he spent another afternoon plowing the field, and only in the evening did he have time to soak the rice, because there was too much technical content in it, so Chen Rou was taken for granted. Now, Only cooking is her home.

But even so, he was still busy. In ancient times, there was no throwing of rice seedlings, all of them were transplanting rice seedlings, so the last round of field preparation before sowing rice was quite troublesome. Before Shen Zhuo planted a few acres of land by himself, he barely managed it. When I have time, I help Shen Qing's house with work.

Now I have rented a few more acres, plus some for reclamation, there are more than ten or twenty acres of land, and some of them can't be connected. I originally wanted to hire a few people to do things, but everyone is busy at the moment. , no one wants to miss the good season, so Chen Rou and Shen Zhuo gave up. Fortunately, Zhou Xiaojiu's man, Liu Sanbao, knew that they were too busy, so he came to help.

Chen Rou went to Liu Sanbao's house once, but Liu Sanbao didn't go to the town much. His family also has land, but not much, enough for a few of them to eat. His main income is to work in the town. All the money is alive, he can ask for it whenever he wants, and he is very comfortable.

Shen Zhuo took a rake to draw lines on the fields, and the places where the lines were drawn would be made into ditches to facilitate drainage later, while Zhou Xiaojiu taught Chen Rou how to scatter sprouted millet, and occasionally, the two would chat for a while .

"The two of you have been so busy since the beginning, when the spring and summer harvest will not be able to work day and night?" Liu Sanbao knew that Chen Rou and Shen Zhuo planted a lot of land this year, so he was a little curious.

"That's not true. It's just after the New Year's Eve, and everyone doesn't want to work very much. In addition, my family is in a hurry, so it's troublesome to hire someone, but when it's spring, I will definitely hire someone of."

"You guys are still amazing. You have planted so much land, but you really don't have much money for farming. Like me, one mu of land is not enough for my family. If there is a cold wave, everything will be lost."

Liu Sanbao sighed a bit. Farming needs a good season. He did not catch up with the good season when he first planted the land, and the result was no harvest. Fortunately, he married Zhou Xiaojiu at that time and brought emergency food, but the later getting along also let him I like his wife more and more.

Of course Chen Rou didn't need to worry about what Liu Sanbao said. Water and fertilizer were no longer a problem. As for the cold wave, no one could control it, but Zhang Lan would look at the weather and had to wait until then to think about it.

"Thank you, Brother Liu, for your concern. After my husband and I have made up our minds, there shouldn't be any big problems." Chen Rou replied with a smile.

"By the way, Chen Rou, there is something I don't know whether I should tell you. Xiao Jiu means to tell me not to say it, but I still think I should ask you." Liu Sanbao scratched the back of his head, this The question has been entangled with him for several days, and he still doesn't know whether he should say it or not. This time he is helping Chen Rou's family, so he just asks it out, so as not to entangle himself.

"Xiao Jiu won't let you say it?" Chen Rou frowned. Zhou Xiaojiu, a carefree person, would want to hide something from her, unless it was something she didn't like, but the things she didn't like were real. Less!
