Chapter 171: Renovation of barren hills?1?
??Sunday afternoon, Song Xi packed ten of the apples she encountered at the first market, and then went to the village chief's house.
??Wu Zhuhua was bending over to pick vegetables in the vegetable garden, holding a large handful of fresh and tender vines and vines.
??Due to the effect of Lingquan water, no one would feel bored even if they ate rattan vegetables every day.
?? "Xiao Xi, why are you here?" Seeing Song Xi approaching, Wu Zhuhua hurried out of the vegetable garden.
"Aunt Zhuhua, you are busy with your work. I have nothing to do. I just came to talk to Uncle Qian." Song Xi smiled, and handed the apple to Qian Chuntao, "Xiao Tao, wash and eat by yourself, is that okay? "
?? "Okay, thank you sister Xiaoxi." Qian Chuntao took the apple embarrassedly, then turned around and ran to the kitchen.
??There is a water tank in the stove house. It is very dangerous for children to go to the well to fetch water by themselves. It is better to use ready-made water.
?? "Your uncle Qian went out to inspect, but he will be back soon, Xiaoxi, if you are not in a hurry, you can wait for a while." Wu Zhuhua put the vegetables in his hand on the stone platform by the well.
??After washing her hands, she went to the main room, and quickly brought out a bowl of sugar water for Song Xi.
?? "Aunt Zhuhua, you are really too polite. I come to your house often and treat me like an ordinary neighbor."
??Song Xi didn't like to drink sugar water, but she was too embarrassed to refuse, so she took it politely and put it on the chair in front of her.
??After Qian Chuntao washed the apples and came out, Song Xi gave Qian Chuntao some sugar water to drink.
?? Song Xi didn't wait long, Qian Chuntao only ate an apple and drank a bowl of sugar water, and Qian Weimin came back.
Song Xi waited for Qian Weimin to wash his hands and cleaned up before he said, "Uncle Qian, I want to use the two barren hills closest to the school, please tell everyone during the meeting that Uncle Qian will not go to those two hills in the future." Don’t go to a mountain even if you dig wild vegetables.”
??Because she wants to grow wild vegetables, if others are opportunistic and unwilling to go out to find wild vegetables and go up the mountain to dig the wild vegetables she planted, wouldn't her efforts be in vain?
?? "Okay, I will communicate with other people. Don't worry, I will definitely not let the villagers run over to disturb you. I will leave the two mountains to you." Qian Weimin said seriously.
He knew that Song Xi was a capable person, and there wasn't even a single good tree on the barren hill, just weeds and malnourished young trees, so let Song Xi and the students torment him, no matter how bad it was, it could be so bad Where are you going?
?? "Thank you Uncle Qian, I will definitely make good use of those two barren mountains." She doesn't believe that she has spiritual spring water, and she can't grow anything.
??As long as there is a soft place where the seeds can be sown, they will definitely germinate.
??In the evening, after the sun gradually went down, Song Xi and Zhou Yi moved the sun-dried potato chips into the main room together with the dustpan. Each layer of the dustpan was separated by two bamboo sticks.
??Because the potato chips have not been completely dried, they cannot be stacked directly together, and they will need to be dried for another day tomorrow.
Song Xi took a piece of potato chips, put it up to his nose and sniffed it, "Brother Yi, how much do you think the 600 catties of potato chips can be left after drying? Can there be half of it? The conversion rate shouldn't be so high, right?" ?”
?? "Weigh it when I harvest it tomorrow. I've dried sweet potatoes in the sun before. It's not cost-effective anyway, but it would be a waste if I didn't dry the sweet potatoes."
??Zhou Yi stretched out his long arms to embrace Song Xi and walked towards the stove house. The dried potatoes were taken home, and it was time to go to the stove house for dinner.
Hearing Zhou Yi's words, Song Xi's eyes lit up with a glimmer of hope, "Our family's production of sweet potatoes is relatively high this year, why don't we also dry half of the sweet potatoes? And we rarely eat them now. Isn’t it sweet potato? Just put it in the granary, what should I do if it gets damaged?”
??The most important thing is that now that she is here, she has all kinds of food to eat.
?? I really rarely use sweet potatoes, so it’s really a pity to pile them up at home.
?? This thing can’t be sold for a price. It only costs a few cents a catty in the market, and there is not much more in the night market, so it is not worthwhile to sell it.
?? "Okay, since the wife has spoken, I will naturally arrange it, and the daughter-in-law doesn't have to worry about it." Zhou Yi pushed Song Xi to the dining table, and sat down with her.
?? After that, he served her a small half bowl of rice. He knew Song Xi's appetite, so he didn't fill it too much.
?? Now that it is the slack season, Song Xi is doing a lot of things at home by himself.
?? Zhou Yi didn't have much time to help her, but once he got home, he would share the burden. He was not willing to make Song Xi work too hard.
??Song Xi glanced at Zhou Yi speechlessly, then ate.
??The next day, that is, Monday morning, Song Xi came out of the room yawning, and saw the scene in the yard, her eyes widened in surprise.
??The potato chips that were dried yesterday have been dried in the yard, and there are four more dustpans beside them, with thinly sliced ??sweet potato fries on them.
?? Song Xi stretched out his hand to squeeze it, and found that the sweet potato fries were still hot. It seems that Zhou Yi cooked the sweet potato and cut it.
??Such dried sweet potato chips can be eaten directly as a snack, and will have a sweet and soft taste.
??If it is a raw sweet potato, it needs to be processed before eating.
??Thinking that Zhou Yi should cook the sweet potatoes directly after processing the crabs in the early morning without taking a break, Song Xi felt swollen.
??Men in this era can treat their wives so well, and their ideological awareness is really higher than that of most modern people.
?? Zhou Yi is so good, but she can only repay him in terms of food.
??Song Xi locked the door and set off. She first went to put fifty catties of snails at Xu Yunying's house, and then went to school with Xu Yunying's three children.
??Under the nourishment of the spiritual spring water, Xu Bing's stature suddenly grew a lot. The fifteen-year-old boy has a tall and straight figure and exquisite facial features. He is simply a handsome young man in the world.
?? With this face, I don’t know how many girls I will be fascinated by when I go to a junior high school in the city in a few years.
?? With this face, it will not be a problem to marry a wife in the future.
??When they came to the school gate, Song Xi took out the key to open the door, and Xu Bing, brother and sister went straight to the kitchen to boil water for everyone.
??Because Song Xi didn't let them drink raw water directly, so he boiled water for everyone to drink.
??Every time Xu Bing boils the water, he warms it directly in the pot, so that no matter who it is, he can drink hot water anytime and anywhere.
??Before nine o'clock, all the students came.
??Seeing the energetic little faces, Song Xi also felt very relieved.
??She originally thought it would be difficult to take care of children, but she didn't expect that a bag of candies at the beginning of school had already conquered the naughty hearts of most children.
??Later, they brought them home every now and then. Now they have a very correct attitude towards learning.
??At least in school, no one is causing trouble so far.
??Song Xi walked into the classroom and put the seeds she took out on the podium, "Students, we don't have class this morning, we are going to grow vegetables on the two barren hills behind, is anyone willing to go with me?"
