Reborn Nongmen Merchant Concubine

Chapter 223 Digging the Ice Cellar

"Everyone, don't talk about anyone else. Have you noticed that the growth of Mengxiong's ten-acre paddy field is different?"

"Don't tell me I haven't noticed yet. It seems that the crops in the five-acre field where the fish are raised grow much better. The rice is more than a little better!"

"I noticed it too. Could it be that raising fish in this field can really make the crops grow better?"

"Nonsense, isn't that obvious? Otherwise, do you think the county magistrate is full? Who is he, Mengxiong, who can let the county magistrate come to release the fry in person?"

"What you said makes sense, but is it really like what we saw? When the crops are harvested during the autumn harvest, I will ask Mengxiong how much the output of this experimental field is different from that of the five acres. If the yield of fish farming is high, I will follow Mengjia to raise fish fry in the field tomorrow."

"Cut, can you take this good thing by yourself? I can assure you that after the autumn harvest, more than [-]% of our village will want to learn from Mengjia!"

"What about the remaining [-]%?"

"Stupid, the remaining [-]% ​​are either those with little land or no land. There is not enough food to eat, so there is still money to buy fish fry!?"

Whether these growths are good or bad, Mengyuan doesn't know, she will only compare which of the two has increased production during the autumn harvest!
Because, in the field without fish, Mengyuan asked her father to fertilize her retting twice, but in the experimental field there was no topdressing, all the seedlings were nourished by fish feces!

Looking all the way, I saw that Li Guang was the only one walking along the ridge beside the field.After arriving at the experimental field, Xiaodoubao broke away from her holding hand and walked towards Li Guang.

"Daddy, Daddy..."

"Bean buns? Why are you here in such a hot day?"

Mengyuan looked at Xiaodoubao's wobbly body, and to be honest, she was really worried that he would be stuck in the field and eat a mouthful of mud, but fortunately, this kid's balance is not bad.

"Uncle Guang, I brought him here! I said to come here to have a look and he heard it, so he insisted on following! It just so happens that he hasn't been here for a long time, so you should miss him, so I brought him here!"

"Mengya, thank you! Doubao, have you thanked my sister yet?"

"Thank you sister!"

"Ha, Xiaodoubao, now that you see your father, don't you want your sister?"

"Mengya, it's so hot today, why did you come here? Are you going to catch fish? I'll go down and catch it for you!" After finishing speaking, Li Guang put down the bean buns that hadn't been held in his arms before going to the field to catch them. fish.

"Hey... Uncle Guang, don't worry, I haven't finished talking yet! I didn't come here to catch fish. I can't eat the fish I just ate last night every day! I just came here to see, How many big fish are there, and if fish are caught in this weather, will it harm the smaller fish?"

"Well, it's hard to say. The water in our field is not deep. If you look carefully, you can see fish swimming around. If the water is shallow and covered by rice, it won't be sunburned, but the rice He Ke will suffer, and he may be stepped on if he is not careful!"

"Well, I was negligent about this problem, but if all the fish are forced into the ditch, won't the rice crops be hurt when fishing?"

"Yes, yes, but this is the area of ​​five acres of paddy fields. As long as the water surface exceeds the ditch, the fish will still swim around!"

Neither this nor that, Meng Yuan is really going crazy!Ling Xiaoyu said, no matter what, some fish should be brought up before the autumn harvest!But now, it seems that the only way to go fishing is to wait until all the rice is harvested!

"Uncle Guang, I'll think about it when I go back. You talk to Doubao for a while, and I'll take a stroll over there!"

There is a small hillside on the right side of the paddy field, it is said... that is the place where the dead are buried!When Meng Qing was buried, her father said that she was still a child and couldn't go to those dark places, so she could only stay at home!
She didn't think of it when she came out today, and she only noticed the white sail floating on the hillside when she came here, but she really didn't dare to do it alone.

The hillside is not very close to the experimental field, and it takes about a quarter of an hour to walk there. I don’t know if Li Guang sleeps here at night and has seen anything he shouldn’t have seen when wandering around here!

The sun was too high, and after wandering around the other five-acre field for a while, Mengyuan ran to the thatched shed where Li Guang lived to hide from the shade!

"Mengya, the weather is too hot, you should go back quickly with the bean buns! He is still young, the sun is too strong, I'm afraid he will suffer from heat stroke if he stays here for too long!"

"Ah? Oh, that's it, then I'll take the bean buns home first, Uncle Guang, I'll trouble you to take care of these fish! Now that the fish are big, wake up when you sleep at night."

"Hey, I know!"

"Daddy..."

"Doubao is good. When Daddy finishes his work, Daddy will go back to look at Doubao, okay? The sun is too big now, you will suffer from heat stroke if you stay here, Doubao doesn't want Daddy to worry? Go back with your sister obediently!"

"Doubao, let's go. If you miss your father, then sister will bring you here when the sun goes down, okay?"

"My sister keeps her word?"

"Er...as long as my sister is not busy!"

The new house will be finished soon, and the furniture she asked the carpenter to make has already been finished, and as soon as the house is cleaned up, the new furniture will be moved and moved in directly!So, counting it, it seems that her leisurely life seems to be getting busy soon!

Mengyuan took Xiaodoubao and complained that the sun was too hot as she walked. Xiaodoubao was still in good spirits just now, but now it is like an eggplant beaten by Shuang, and she has to rest for a while after walking a few steps.But the sun is so big, in order not to get too tanned, Mengyuan gritted her teeth and bent down to wrap the little bean on her back!

After there was an extra person on her back, she felt that her whole body was hotter, and the sweat kept pouring out as if she didn't want money.When she got home, not a single piece of her body was dry!

After asking Lingyu to fetch two buckets of well water for herself and put them in the bathtub, she sat in the big bathtub and soaked comfortably, feeling that the heat disappeared immediately!

"Oh~~ This well water is cool. I was about to turn into a roast duck just now. Now that the well water is so soaked, why do I feel like I was drenched in ice water when I was making white chicken?"

She thought that there was no such thing as pollution in ancient times, but who knows that the sun has not changed at all from the modern one, it is still the same heat, and there are fans and air conditioners in modern times, here is only this cold well water to cool down Wow!

"Ah~~~ I'm going to die, I'm going to die!"

Speaking of cooling down, she forgot to tell Foreman Lin that after the house business is over, let him dig an ice cellar for her!
"Girl, what's the matter? What happened?"

"Ah? Oh, it's okay, I'm getting dressed, Lingyu, come in and pour out the water! I have to go to the construction site first!"

"Ah? Girl, didn't you just come back from outside? Why are you going out again?"

"I have a very important matter to find Foreman Lin, if my mother asks you, just say that I went to the construction site to find Foreman Lin~! That's it, I'm leaving first!"

After quickly getting dressed, Meng Yuan went straight to the construction site!
This is the time when the sun is at its fiercest, so Meng Yuan stipulated that the time from [-]:[-] to [-]:[-] p.m. is the time for the workers to rest, and it was not yet [-]:[-] when Meng Yuan came here, so foreman Lin should be resting of!
She didn't take a long way either, and went straight to the hut where the foreman Lin lived!

"Foreman Lin, are you in there? I have something to do with you!"

"I'm here, I'm here, Miss Meng, what do you want me to do with the old man?"

"Foreman Lin, let me ask you, have you ever seen an ice cellar? I want you to dig an ice cellar for me!"

Lin Tian was stunned for a while, but he didn't understand what was going on with the little girl in front of him!Suddenly ran over and said something about digging an ice cellar.That's something that only rich people have!Although this Mengjia house is built in style now, but after all, it is still a peasant family!
"Ms. Meng, you want to dig an ice cellar? Don't be kidding. We ordinary people can afford such expensive things! Besides, our town of Buyang hasn't had snow for decades. How can you dig this ice cellar? What's the use?"

"Oh, Mr. Lin, don't worry about whether it's useful for me to dig this ice cellar, just tell me, can you dig it?!"

"If you can dig, you can dig, but this is not something that can be done in a day or two!"

"how much time is required?"

"No matter what, it will take ten days or so, because the ice cellar is relatively sealed, and it is not as simple as a house. After the cellar is dug, it needs to be repaired!"

"Well, how about this? Didn't Ling Xiaoyu say that you will go to the fishing village after my house is built? Do you think you can save some good hands to help me fix this ice cellar? Don't worry, wait After the ice cellar is finished, go and personally send the person to the fishing village for you!"

"Okay, I'll think about it!"

"Okay, after you think it over, tell Uncle Cheng!"

She doesn't know what the ice cellar looks like, so she can only let Lin Tian figure out a way by herself. Anyway, no one can stop her desire to dig the ice cellar!Not only does she have to dig an ice cellar here, but she also has to dig an ice cellar after she goes to the fishing village, so that the fish caught in the sea don't have to worry about the stink in the town without ice!

Meng Yuan ran out in a hurry, Lingyu thought that something had happened, Li Shi woke up and asked Meng Yuan, she told the truth!
No, Mengyuan had just stepped into the door of the house when she saw Mrs. Li sitting in the middle of the courtyard.look at that pose...

"Mom, are you taking the shade or are you taking the shade? It seems that the sun is still high, and it's still a bit stuffy to take the shade right now. Be careful not to expose my brother to the sun!"
