Chapter 21 Harvest (please collect and recommend)
I sat at Zhang An’s house for more than an hour, looking at the flowers, plants, and animals in the yard.
Especially Sanhu who came back from outside made Li Hongbin jealous. He actually also likes dogs, but because he doesn't stay home often, he doesn't have one at home, but it doesn't affect his love.
Especially how obedient Sanhu is.
He originally wanted to ask Zhang An if he could sell the dog, but Zhang An said he would not sell it.
This made Sanhu grin a little when he looked at him.
He also knew that it was impolite to say so, so he settled for the next best thing. In the future, when Zhang An's dogs are bred and have puppies, one will be left for him.
When the two finally asked to go back, Zhang An only stayed for a while and then stopped trying. After all, they didn't have a deep friendship yet.
When I left, I not only took away the hare, pheasant and fish, but also took away the basket of fifty or so teal eggs. Of course, the silver rooster must have been taken away as well. It was Li Hongbin who held it in his hand. In the end, Zhou Lan left more than twenty large bills to Zhang An.
Zhang An even thought it was a bit much, but in fact most of the money was for the silver rooster. If it can get an important customer, this little money is nothing.
He also told Zhang An to remember to let him know if there is any strange stuff in the future.
In the end, Zhang An sent the two of them to the entrance of the village, and the other party also allowed Zhang An to have time to visit their house. His family, Li Yao, liked Zhang An.
These words were not polite. It could be seen that Li Hongbin wanted to make friends with Zhang An, and Zhou Lan meant what he said.
Not long after teasing Sanhu in the yard, my parents came back from a visit.
Probably they came back after seeing Zhou Lan and his wife send them away.
Although my mother didn't say anything, Zhang An knew it from her eyes.
Give you a look and you will experience it yourself.
I counted three big tickets and handed them to my mother. My mother was happy and surprised at the same time.
"Why is there so much? Is it too much? Xiao An, I don't think I'm trying to do anything for you if I give you so much."
Although money is a good thing, Wang Fang has not been flushed. Confused.
Those few prey are not worth so much money.
“What are you trying to do? We don’t have anything for others to do in our family. By the way, they also bought our duck eggs. People from the city like these things. This little money is not worth it to them. "Nothing."
This is why Zhang An didn't give all the money to his mother, otherwise she would be frightened.
Wang Fang relaxed after listening to what Zhang An said, and happily put away the money. Her son had given her money several times this year, and it was enough to sell two pigs.
"It's okay. If we sell the duck eggs, it will save us the money to take them to the town and sell them ourselves."
The life of Zhang An's family is much better now than before. Sometimes Zhang Anti comes back The fish are cooked and eaten at home, and since the ducks have settled at home, they can basically pick up five or six eggs every day, which is a lot of income.
Now the situation of the family is developing towards a better side. The big black horse at home is strong and powerful, and is also very obedient. The two pigs have become fat and strong recently. The ducks do not need to be fed every day, but they can also provide food for the family. Lay some eggs.
This is what the so-called prosperous livestock means in Wang Fang's heart.
The gifts Zhou Lan brought included wine, candies and cakes, and Zhang An handed them to his mother.
Wang Fang also took it and put it away. This can be used when visiting relatives.
While Wang Fang was away, Zhang An pulled out fifty yuan and handed it to his father.
Zhang Jianguo smiled from ear to ear. When Zhang An handed Wang Fang three hundred yuan just now, he thought Zhang An had given all the money to Wang Fang.
Although he was a little disappointed, maybe it was too much and maybe Zhang An couldn't stay, so he didn't care.
I didn’t expect that my son would be kept by me. As expected, my son is still close to me.
In Zhang An’s previous life, Zhang Jianguo was not in good health because he smoked cigarettes and drank alcohol for many years.
And as I get older, my blood pressure is still very high, but I just can’t quit smoking and drinking.
So when Zhang An came back in this life, he persuaded his father to quit smoking some time ago. I tell him every day about the dangers of smoking and how it is a waste of money.
But fortunately, Zhang Jianguo doesn’t smoke much now, so he finally listened to Zhang An’s advice and stopped drinking.
And he has been in good health recently, because he uses the space spring water at home every day for eating and drinking, but Zhang Jianguo doesn't know, and thinks it is the benefit of quitting smoking and drinking.
Every time he goes out and the villagers get together to brag, everyone laughs at how he still looks like a man if he doesn't smoke or drink, saying that he can't be the head of the family.
Zhang Jianguo also seriously advised everyone to smoke less and drink less, which is good for the body.
Until everyone saw that Zhang Jianguo was more able to do farm work than before. This made everyone think, is it really such a great benefit? Or should I quit smoking and drinking?
Actually, it’s not that helpful, but it’s not harmful at all. If it doesn’t do so much harm to the body, wouldn’t it be more important than anything else?
. . .
Zhang An washed the gastrodia elata dug from the mountains and gave it to his mother for processing.
My mother is familiar with this matter, because my grandpa often goes to the mountains to dig herbs, and after they are cooked, they are sold in the town.
So my mother knows more or less.
After the preparation is completed, buy a few kilograms of wine and make a jar of Gastrodia wine to keep at home for emergencies.
Time passes day by day, and the rapeseed seedlings sown in the vegetable garden are ready for transplanting.
When sowing seeds and raising seedlings, Zhang An soaked the seeds in spring water.
So the germination speed is very fast, and when transplanting, you can find that these rapeseed seedlings are quite strong.
It took more than ten days to transplant the rapeseed seedlings into the fields and fields.
Due to the local staple food habit, there are actually very few families growing wheat, and only a few families do it.
Most people grow rapeseed or potatoes.
Potatoes now cost two cents per pound. Although they are cheap, potatoes are highly productive and do not require much management.
The same is true for rapeseed, but rapeseed does not have such a high yield.
Zhang An followed his family to transplant rapeseed. He first plowed the fields, and turned over and burned the rice roots and corn roots that had not been dug up.
Then I started growing rapeseed. Because I have horses at home this year, I didn’t have to manually plow the land, which saved me a lot of days. So the seeds were sown very quickly.
Looking at the large field at the entrance of the village, every household is busy planting rapeseed.
When the rapeseed flowers bloom next year after the New Year, the place will be golden.
Golden new clothes are the favorite color in the mountains every year.
At that time, the industrious bees were the happiest because they had endless pollen to collect.
After Zhang An’s family finished their work, he took the caravan to the second uncle’s house and the third uncle’s house to plow the land.
The people in the village said with envy that Zhang An is such a good boy.
Since Zhang An deliberately helped his two uncles' families, the three Zhang Jianguo brothers now have a good relationship.
Wang Fang and her sisters-in-law got along very well, and nothing red-faced happened.
All of this happened in later generations, even though Zhang An took his parents to the city.
But every year, the two uncles from my hometown bring some new year’s goods to Zhang An’s family.
This makes Zhang An very friendly to the two uncles' families, so the only thing he can help in this life is to live a good life together.
