Chapter 2404 Purpose


Chapter 2404 Purpose

Student Le went to Province X on the 2nd and returned to the park in the middle of the afternoon on the 5th.

Le's father, Zhou Qiufeng, and three handsome boys dug out all the medicinal plants in the fields, mixed yellow soil and tamped it to build ridges, mixed fertilizers with the soil, and covered it with a layer of grass and film cloth to protect the rice fields.

After finishing that work, there was no other farm work in the paradise. Le's father, Zhou Qiufeng, had nothing to do. He was particularly thinking about the pigs, cows, chickens and ducks at home, and he also wanted to go back to his hometown.

When the helicopter of their little cotton-padded jacket returned to the paradise, the couple couldn't wait to run over. Even though they had no luggage to carry, they felt calm when they saw their girl.

Le's father snatched his son's backpack and helped him carry it. As he walked towards the east courtyard, he repeatedly asked if he had had lunch and if he had found the needed medicinal materials.

When Zhou Qiufeng heard that Yazai had not eaten, she hurried into the east courtyard. She and Yueqing went directly to the kitchen. Yue's father used yak dung as firewood to light a fire. Zhou Qiufeng washed the pot and made soup and dumplings.

Leshan and Luke practiced martial arts in the morning and studied at the "Dian Mo Studio" in the afternoon. Li Zhao was responsible for supervising the two little guys. Anyone who had questions they didn't understand could ask him.

Le Yun did not go to the study, but put her luggage back in the "Jiude Hall" and went to the kitchen to have a belated lunch. Then she wandered to the alchemy furnace room and opened the basement door for ventilation.

I went to find some ropes and machetes, and put a bag of plant ash in for later use.

After getting ready, I gathered three good helpers: Dad, Aunt Feng, Brother Fu, Brother Qian, Brother Jie, and then asked Mr. Li and two children to go to the backyard to cut sugar cane with a knife and a thick rope.

The sugarcane planted in the backyard is a cold-resistant variety from the north of Dongchen Continent. After three springs, three groups of plants have grown, and some weak plants have fallen out. There are a total of thirty-five living plants.

The tallest sugar cane among the more than thirty sugar canes is more than ten meters long, with a waist diameter of sixteen centimeters.

Because the big sugar cane is too tall, two layers of triangular supports were built. One layer is at a height of five meters, and the other layer is at a height of more than eight meters. There are two layers of support to support the sugar cane tree so that it will not be blown down by the wind. .

Except for the largest one, the waist diameter of the other two-year-old sugar canes is within eight to twelve centimeters. The new seedlings in the spring are as big as a wine glass with a diameter of 4 or 5 centimeters. The new sugar cane legs have long legs and tender skin, and are particularly energetic.

The sugar cane grows into a forest, and the roots stand upright, like a forest of bamboo. When the Chao family and their relatives and friends visited the east courtyard, no one wanted to believe that it was sugar cane.

Leshan Luke had long been curious about the piece of sugar cane that looked like bamboo. When he heard that the sugar cane was going to be cut, he was so excited that he ran ahead.

The two little ones who ran to the sugar cane forest first were holding the largest sugar cane and playing with it. Shaking the sugar cane with their strength was like "flying ants shaking a big tree", and the sugar cane did not move at all.

The children's happiness is very simple, and Brother Fu and others are very happy to see it.

Sugarcane was originally grown in ridges, and the old roots were not dug. Within a certain period of time, new shoots would grow every spring, with irregular spacing, so the sugarcane was not in a line.

Originally, there was a space of about three feet wide between ridges, but with more sugar cane, the distance between rows was only about one and a half feet wide. The leaves of the sugar cane were staggered to form an avenue.

Dad Le and others looked at the bamboo-like sugar cane and felt at a loss what to do.

Classmate Le picked out the sugar cane that was ready to be harvested, climbed up the tree, peeled off some leaves at the top, and then cut sections from the top down one by one, and threw the cut sugar cane sections on the grass.

She is delicate and light, and can climb sugar cane like a tree, but others cannot. Even with a support frame, it is difficult for her to bear the weight of an adult man or woman.

Classmate Le weighs less than 100 kilograms, and he has a bamboo pole to share his weight. Half of his center of gravity is on the bamboo pole. Even if he climbs to the top of the sugar cane, it will not break the sugar cane.

A sugar cane needs to be cut into about three to four sections, and then the support supporting the sugar cane can be removed and chopped directly from the root.

Le Xiaololi started with a sugar cane with a smaller diameter. She threw the cut sugar cane into the grass. Le's father Zhou Qiufeng and brother Fu, brother Qian and brother Jie first helped collect the leaves. After the sugar cane was cut into sections, they carried it Go to one side and stack the tail section and the middle section separately.

Sections of sugarcane have a shiny green skin, like sections of bamboo. Only when you look at the fractures do you realize that they are solid and exude a sweet smell.

Li Zhao stood aside with the children and did not allow the children to get close. Only after the little girl chopped down the sugar cane, he helped to carry it out and put it on the grass for Le's father and others to cut it.

After cutting down more than a dozen large sugar cane trees, the cane forest became much more empty, and the tallest sugar cane tree stood out.

The largest sugar cane grows in the ridge. No matter which way it is poured, other seedlings will be damaged. So we had to use a helicopter. A rope was hung from the helicopter and tied to the middle of the sugar cane. Then it was cut off. The helicopter lifted up the top section of the sugar cane and lowered it down. grassland.

The support frame is removed, and the rope hanging from the bottom of the helicopter is tied to another section of sugar cane. Then the roots are cut, and the helicopter lifts the sugar cane up, moves it to the grass, and lowers it down.

After cutting down all the sugar cane that could be harvested, Le Xiaoxiao carried a big knife and divided the sugar cane into sections.

The length of about one to two meters at the root end of sugarcane is very hard and cannot be chewed by humans. The sugar cane can only be pressed with a machine or left as seedlings.

The length of about one meter at the end is in the growth stage. It is very tender and has a lot of water. It can be either squeezed for sugar or left as seedlings.

Le cut off the root and tail sections of the sugarcane and kept them as seedlings. After cutting off, he wrapped the cut ends in plant ash and moved them to the cellar for storage. They can be planted in spring next February.

The middle part that can be eaten directly is cleaned first, then cut into sections, put in a fresh-keeping box, and transported back to the Baibao Pavilion of Langhuan Palace for storage, and a box is placed in Jiudetang. After cleaning up the place, a group of people washed their hands and sat in Jiudetang to share sugar cane.

Student Le Xiao picked a section of the largest sugar cane, divided it into three sections, and then cut it into four sections, one for each person.

It is a large sugar cane with a diameter of more than ten centimeters. The shortest node at the root end is more than a foot long, and a node in the middle is more than two feet high. One sugar cane is divided into three sections and then split into four pieces. One piece is three times as long as ordinary sugar cane. Four sections long.

Sugarcane looks like bamboo. Remove the thick skin, and the meat is very soft and has enough water. It doesn't hurt your teeth when you chew it, and it tastes very good.

A group of people gnawed sugar cane more vigorously than giant pandas chewing bamboo, and everyone ate with gusto.

"Yeah, this is delicious, even better than the one grown by Jiudao." Dad Le gnawed on the sugar cane stick, his eyes bright, and he praised it as he ate.

The climate of Jiudao can also grow sugar cane, because growing sugar cane can easily make the land poor. The local area has not developed a large scale. Generally, families grow some in the corners of the land and eat it themselves.

The sugar cane grown by oneself tastes better than the sugar cane sold in the market. After all, the land grown on one's own land uses natural agricultural fertilizers, while the sugar cane grown in the sugar cane production area uses chemical fertilizers.

Both the Zhou family and the Liu family and the Zhang family in Jiudao grow sugarcane, which is basically not sold on the street and is consumed within the village.

"Dad takes a box with him when he comes home, and I give another portion to Grandpa Chao's family and my wife's family.

As for planting this at home, don't even think about growing it. The tree is too tall and is not safe for private planting. ”

"Okay, I'll just bring the ready-made one back. Just plant it. Not to mention the fertilizer cost, you have to build a frame for it, and you have to use a helicopter to cut the cane. It's too expensive. If you make money by planting it, you will lose money."< br>


Dad Le was complaining about the time and money spent on sugar cane, and Brother Fu chuckled: "Mr. Le, you haven't seen the whole process. When the little girl planted this, it took a long time to dig the hole and fill the ridge, and fill it with fertilizer to a depth of three feet.

Later, when the little girl was not at home, I kept an eye on it, recorded the budding time, and removed some thinner buds. Then I watered according to the weather and observed whether there were insect bites. When it grew to more than one and a half meters, I had to peel off the leaves regularly and plant seeds. This is really troublesome. ”

"Sure enough, growing this is easier than raising cattle." Dad Le was immediately frightened after hearing this. To raise cattle, you have to take them out for a walk every day, mow the grass frequently, and have to worry about it all year round, otherwise they will not be able to raise it properly. It doesn't eat or drink, but it has no less worries than raising cattle.

Le Yun smiled so hard that her eyes turned into crescent moons and she said nothing.

The sugar cane was very good. The handsome guys gnawed off one piece and happily gnawed on the second piece.

The little Loli only ate one piece, so she went to Baibao Pavilion to find some plastic crisper boxes, picked out more than a dozen pieces of sugar cane, and put them in the crisper boxes. She gave one box to Brother Fu and the others, and asked them to help with the other boxes. Tomorrow, express delivery will be sent to the Chao family's three grandmothers' homes and Mrs. Wang's home.

Luke also had a share, and he got two canes alone.

We all had dinner in the east courtyard in the evening, Le's father Zhou Qiufeng cooked, and Brother Fu, Brother Qian, and Brother Jie helped.

Classmate Le did not go to the kitchen to help. After eating the sugar cane, she went to the alchemy furnace, found all the tools needed to make medicine, and opened ten furnaces, nine medicine cauldrons to boil medicine, and a small medicine furnace to stew sugar cane.

After dinner, we formally went into the alchemy furnace room and made pills behind closed doors.

While Xiao Loli was retreating to make medicine, Ms. Wei kept socializing for several days. She attended a luncheon at noon that day. Finally, there was no banquet in the evening, so she returned to her parents' home when she had time.

Ms. Wei's brother, Mr. Wei, has social activities in the evening. Her brother and sister-in-law are not at home at night, but Mr. Wei is at home.

Ms. Wei returned to the compound where her old father lived. She finished dinner and went to the study room with her father and daughter as she usually did when returning to her parents' home.

The study was relatively private. After Mr. Wei sat down, he asked: "Qiu Meng, is there something hidden in your heart? Did you have a quarrel with Xu Hongzhan?"

"There was no quarrel." Ms. Wei shook her head, not knowing what to say.

"What's going on?"

"Dad, I want to ask you, that day in the paradise, did you ask Mr. Zhou to order a baby for Leshan and my Nuannuan to kiss?" Ms. Wei struggled for a while, but told her the purpose of returning to her parents' home.

"Yeah, I mentioned it, what's wrong?" Mr. Wei didn't understand why the girl suddenly brought up the old matter again after a few days.

"Dad, why did you suddenly have that idea? Was it your own idea, or did someone say something?" Ms. Wei's neatly sculpted eyebrows wrinkled?

"..." Mr. Wei opened his mouth, then remained silent for a moment: "Qiu Meng, did the little girl or the Chao family talk to you in private?"
