Chapter 0004. Focus on farming
"Captain, can I use the extra sweet potato seedlings myself?" Lou Ning saw that everyone around him was still busy, so he asked the captain in a low voice, "Can I go up the mountain with my father to dig the land and plant it myself?"
Although she hid Miao before, she also hopes that her actions will lead the way.
Don't make people worry about it.
She thought about the general shortage of food in this era. These seedlings and soil were both considered to be in the team. It would be unjustifiable if they were not distributed to the country.
"When the harvest comes, one-third will be handed over and we will keep two-thirds for ourselves. Do you think so?"
It's not that Lou Ning is stingy, it takes a lot of effort to clear the land. In addition, it takes his own time, and he will definitely have to ask Lin Erfu and a few younger siblings to help.
She doesn't want to treat her family badly, so of course she wants to get enough benefits for her family─
Of course, if the captain is not willing to give this convenience, then she will go to work on her own yard. Although it is slow and the land is small, she will not lose in terms of quality.
"...Isn't it enough for you to farm like this during the day?" The captain really believed what Li Daniu said now. Lou Ning was a little evil, "You are a girl, you can work hard if you want, but you still have to take care of your health.
.”
He thought that the little girl wanted to find something to do because she had an affair with her partner, so he persuaded her,
"It's okay for you, Miao, but it's not your fault for being dumped by Bao Qifu. Don't take it out on yourself just because you're in a bad mood. This is irresponsible behavior."
After hearing the keyword, Lou Ning's heart skipped a beat, his body stiffened in time, and he said stiffly,
"I didn't. You are overthinking it. I am now focused on farming and increasing production to serve the country."
What kind of egg is Bao Qifu? He's not a good person, so she has to kick him when he comes.
It’s time to divide it now!
"Everyone knows what happened between him and Xu Xiuqing, but since the two comrades have decided to live a good life, don't think too much about it. There are still many good young men in our army." The captain who consciously found the reason lowered his head and looked at Lou Ning.
He raised his head and said earnestly, "I don't disagree with you going to reclaim land, but the mountains are dangerous and you are a little girl. Don't make everyone worry, okay?"
"Don't worry, no one I have trouble with will have trouble with myself." After Lou Ning finished his analysis, he felt that Bao Guofu and Xu Xiuqing would not interfere with him for the time being, so he took the hoe and handed it over to the captain neatly.
results.
That's right, even when she was talking to people, she didn't delay planting the land and had already planted the entire acre of land.
Captain: "..."
Looking at this neat field, with complete intervals, from the front, from the side, and even diagonally, it is a straight line of planting. It is estimated that even the most skilled old farmers in the brigade cannot achieve this effect.
In fact, if the captain had looked more carefully, he might have been able to tell that the curly directions of these sweet potato seedlings and the whiskers were all the same... including the height.
Of course, the depth of the pit must also be uniform. If it were not for the adaptability problem, I am afraid that the amount of water poured by Lou Ning would be less than a drop of error.
"Okay, I'll give you ten work points today." The captain is usually generous and fair to those who are willing to work hard. Although Lou Ning is underage, theoretically he cannot give full work points. But she counted the time she spent with Li Daniu in the morning.
Already one person has cultivated an acre and a half.
Even if the adult labor force comes in the strongest condition, at its peak, it is estimated that this is the result. So according to the standards, the number he gave it is not actually a disqualification.
"Okay, thank you captain." Lou Ning was very satisfied with the fairness of the other party. He took the remaining basket of sweet potato seedlings in his hand and left the field with a quick stride, which made many people who originally wanted to see the joke drop their jaws.
"What are you looking at!" The captain sent Lou Ning away with complicated eyes. He turned around and saw the unsatisfactory look of these people, and immediately became angry, "You are mumbling so much gossip, why not use your strength for what it should be used for?
place!"
Lou Ning didn't care how miserable the remaining people were. She used her brain to estimate the time, fearing that Chen Fangcao had already secretly cooked. If she asked him to make porridge again, she would be stuck in the soil and pass out from hunger in the middle of the night.
"You, why are you back so soon?!" It turns out that Lou Ning has good vision. Chen Fangcao has just finished watering the ground in the small courtyard, and is planning to touch it for cooking first.
As soon as he saw Lou Ning's attitude, he was frightened. However, when he saw the basket in Lou Ning's hand, he perked up again and cursed in a low voice in anger.
"You stole something from the team?!"
"No!" Lou Ning heard the other party's bad words and didn't bother to care. He took the basket directly to the kitchen, sprayed water on it and covered it with a layer of cloth to nourish the seedlings that were burned by the sun, and then said, "
I completed the task ahead of schedule and saved a lot of seedlings, so the captain asked me to take them and plant them in the mountains."
"Are you going to plant in the mountains?!" Chen Fangcao never thought that her second daughter, who was usually too lazy to go out to the fields, would actually plan to plant in the mountains after a day of farming because she didn't like it enough. She couldn't help but scream in a low voice.
Said, "You're crazy!"
"If I wasn't crazy, would I be sold to the lame Zhang by my grandma?" Lou Ning heard her scream, put down the enamel bowl in his hand with a smile, turned his head and glanced at her sideways, "I don't want to get married, I just want to
I do what I want to do, so of course I have to give myself some leverage.”
"Lame Zhang? What lame Zhang?" Chen Fangcao was stunned when he heard what Lou Ning said, "Didn't we agree that you would be promised to the third child of the Wang family in West Village?"
No matter how stupid she is, she still knows which one of the two is better.
But Lou Ning couldn't lie to her. Lame Zhang was the most famous scoundrel in the brigade. She wanted her daughter back in exchange for food, but she didn't want to sell her daughter.
Therefore, this can only mean that the news sent to him by his in-laws and sisters-in-law was discounted!
No, or I should say, I never thought of telling the truth from the beginning, that’s why I described it so vaguely!
"Now is not the time to talk about this." Lou Ning knew that this matter would have to be dealt with sooner or later, but she had finally arrived at a place where she could show her talents. Of course, she wanted to satisfy her desire for planting as much as possible.
"I saw it as soon as I entered the yard. You planted the radish in the wrong way, and the method of fertilizing was wrong. This is not how you apply fertilizer." Lou Ning said to Chen Fangcao, "You listen while I cook, wait.
I'll plow the ground first, then fertilize it according to my method, and then topdress the fields at regular intervals the next day, then divide the ridges, and then you can add more onions, ginger, and garlic."
She calculated the growth cycles of these plants in her mind, and then said to Chen Fangcao, who was obviously sluggish,
