Chapter 167 Land reclamation
The two irons came back with many birdies with four irons and five irons.
After being identified by Yan Lao Er, it was a quail.
Huanhuanxixi took the children to remove hair and internal organs, washed them clean and baked them.
As soon as the seasoning from Yan’s family came out, the children stood by and swallowed their saliva.
The little quail meat was pitifully small, and there was only a little bit of it for each person, but the children were all very happy, their little mouths kept smashing, and they even chewed and swallowed the tiny bones.
I still want to eat four irons and five irons, but I am sensible enough not to bother with the second iron.
The family's land was divided, and their family was divided into fifty-five acres of land.
Even if there are many men in the Luo family, so much land is also a very heavy burden.
What's more, this land is different, it is a wasteland.
This is the case with the Luo family, let alone the Yan family.
Yan's family is discussing how to open up wasteland.
"Clear out the ground first, and dig it deep." Yan Lao Er had already had an idea in mind, and said: "After the digging is finished, I will dig some river mud to enrich the land."
Yan Huaiwen said: "Just sprinkle some plant ash, don't make any big moves on the river side for now."
Seeing that his younger brother didn't understand, he explained: "We are not familiar with this section of the river. At this time, the water level in the sky has dropped. When the weather turns cold, we don't know where the water level will rise. Let's observe the winter first, and then make plans. "
Yan's second child was kind, and said: "Simply gather all the weeds in those fields into a pile and burn them, and directly fertilize the land.
By the way, big brother, we don’t have all the farm tools in hand, should we go to Huju City to remind them, especially the plow, our family’s three treasures are waiting to be used. "
Yan's second child was very aggrieved for the three treasures. As a capable cow, he didn't even have all the equipment.
Too much influence on our treasure play.
Yan Huaiwen is now immune to the name Three Treasures.
"Tomorrow, Man Shan and I will go to the yamen as errands, and we will ask one or two questions. If we can't make it in time, ask Qi Wu if he can make a wooden plow first."
"Okay, I'll ask later." Second Yan said.
"How about going to the quarry and brick factory today?" Yan Huaiwen asked.
Yan Laoer talked about the price of green and red bricks and the price of waste stone, and told Lao Yan that he wanted to find a professional to build a house.
Yan Huaiwen had no objection, nodded and said: "Yes, find someone to do it, we can concentrate on reclaiming wasteland."
He thought for a while, took out the twenty taels of silver note, and said, "God bless, if the money is not enough, I will exchange this silver note for expenses."
"Brother, it's still enough, I'll ask you if it's not enough." Second Yan refused.
Yan Huaiwen shook his head and said: "My brother is going to work in the yamen, you have to take care of everything at home, don't just think about saving money, find ways to increase revenue, and don't restrain yourself and save money.
Don’t force yourself if you are not used to the work in the field, the same is true for asking for help. "
Yan Laoer hurriedly said: "I don't have much work, so I just pick out the stones and weed them. There are three treasures in plowing the land. After the seeds are planted, it will be easy. Then I will stay at home and watch them build a house."
Yan Huaiwen was more at ease seeing that his younger brother had a constitution in his heart.
"I have agreed with people in advance that our family can't take care of food, so let them bring their own rations, and we can give more in terms of wages." He remembered that his younger siblings were pregnant, and he was afraid that they would not be able to arrange food.
Yan Lao Er hurriedly said: "Brother, building a house is a big deal, and the work is hard and tiring. The housekeeper is in charge of the meals. They will definitely be happy if we give more money, but I am afraid that they will not be willing to eat good food. If there is no oil in their stomachs, work will be counterproductive." Procrastinating, I thought, why don't we find an aunt who is quick on the stove to help our family cook, what do you think?"
"Well, then I would trouble my brothers and sisters to ask the aunt who is familiar in the village if they can come to help me for a few days." Yan Huaiwen turned to Li Xuemei and said.
Li Xuemei responded, "I'll ask someone tomorrow."
The things at home were pretty much sorted out, and Yan Huaiwen didn't let go of his son, daughter and little niece.
Let them hand in the homework assigned before, and randomly check the articles they have recited before.
Yan Xiangheng is a player who has been "tortured" for a long time, and his answers are fluent.
Little Yan Yu has a good memory, and she can memorize it fluently.
Only Da Ya, who slacked off on her homework, forgot all she had learned before, and was punished by her father to copy it several times.
Da Ya was punished, her face flushed with embarrassment.
Yan Yu sympathized with Big Sister Da Ya very much.
Leaned over and stuffed his little hands into the big sister's hands.
Deliver the power of silence.
Practice and practice calligraphy, and you can't forget to practice calligraphy even when you are busy with farming.
Now that the family is busy, he dare not think about what it will be like when Lao Yan is free.
"Brother, why don't you rent a house in Huju, it's too hard for you to run back and forth."
Yan Lao Er secretly praised himself for being as clever as me, haha!
"It's okay, Hufang won't be busy until the autumn harvest, and there aren't many things to do right now."
Tianyou mentioned that he went back and forth to Huju, and he remembered something.
"Discuss the livestock in the village with the village head and elders to see if they should be divided. It is not convenient to keep them mixed."
Old Yan didn’t say anything, Yan’s second child really didn’t think of it.
The main reason is that no one in the village has had any conflicts over the use of livestock.
Those mules and donkeys are being treated very well now. Someone will feed them in the sky. Those by the river, on the mountains, and in the woods, if they get some fresh green grass, the villagers will send them to them.
"I'm afraid we will have to wait for a while. We are busy opening up wasteland now. The matter of these livestock is not a small matter. I am afraid that we will not get any results after a day or two of discussion." Yan Laoer said.
"Just remember it."
Yan Huaiwen finally stuffed the bank note.
Yan Er Er had no choice but to accept it.
After doing the math, Old Yan really doesn't have much money.
Money is imminent.
…
Yan Huaiwen and Liang Manshan drove a donkey cart and left before dawn.
Yan's second child and his family decided to start with the land by the river.
The ground near the river has less rocks and more weeds.
He also deliberately brought Sanbao and Maomao here.
Eating the three treasures all the way will kill a lot of weeds.
Maomao, ahem, you can take a stroll nearby, and by the way, condolences to the wild ducks that live in the reed beach.
The ten mu of land by the river is adjacent to Rongmao's five mu of land.
Yan Xiangheng and Da Ya were working hard, and when they looked up again, they suddenly found that the aunt next door had crossed the boundary.
"Auntie, this is my land." Da Ya's face was bright red, and there was sweat on her forehead.
Nurse Rong nodded with a smile, pointed at Li Xuemei, and pointed at herself.
Da Ya looked confused.
Li Xuemei hurriedly said: "Da Ya, this is your Aunt Rong, she has some trouble talking."
When the big girl heard this, she smiled embarrassedly and called out "Aunt Rong".
Nurse Rong smiled kindly, lowered her head and continued weeding.
Yan Laoer hurriedly pulled his eldest nephew and niece aside, and of course his daughter.
Said to the three of them: "This lady Rong is separated from her family. She is the only one left and can't speak. It's really pitiful. Our family happens to ask someone to cook. Your aunt said, why don't you ask her first.
She is quite willing, and the salary is not too much. Your aunt said, when our Sanbao pulls the plow, I will help her plow the field by the way, hey! Who would have thought that this is a well-informed and grateful person who insists on helping us weed, so he keeps talking. "
Yan Yu is calm, her father can easily catch her big brother and big sister.
The monthly ticket war is so intense today~
The list ranks up and down, hahaha~ Generally speaking, Zhai Zhai is on the rise~
