It's another snowfall. Children's games don't disappear due to the change of seasons. Without much worries, they can always find things that make them happy, at least for the children of Zhang Wang and Zhuangzi.
When they first opened the door in the morning and saw no calf snow outside, what the children had to do was to carefully lift their feet and put them down again, leaving their own footprints on the white snow.
In winter, the villagers who have nothing to do for a while are also busy clearing the snow, and the smoke is scattered over the village, showing the strength of the Zhangwang family to the other villagers. Breakfast is not something that everyone can eat.
Zhang Xiaobao and Wang Juan also got up early. They didn’t have to go to school. They ate a few meat buns, drank a bowl of goat’s milk, took pomegranate and others out to find fun things. Now the pomegranate is not used for making pasta and handed it to others. People, this technique is going to be taught to shops in Beijing in the beginning of spring.
The planting of fungus and white fungus has also stopped. Pomegranates really don’t know how to control the temperature in winter, and cherries have stopped hatching poultry. Chickens and ducklings in this season will freeze to death and they will be raised in houses without any problems. In such a big place, Xiao Hong also handed over feeding matters to others.
Two Niu and Huzi, sitting idle at home, happened to follow together, and the seven men headed straight towards Tanaka.
There are more straws piled up in the fields than elsewhere. In autumn, a lot of straws are harvested outside, part of which is used for burning, and part of which is to be directly pressed into the fields in spring. This year Zhang Xiaobao and Wang Juan are going to adjust the planting process.
The stubble left after the rice was cut in the field will not be turned out. After the water is poured into the field, the seedlings are thrown directly, and the original straw is also pressed into the water. According to Zhang Xiaobao, this can have a mulching effect. , To smother the other weeds.
This method can save a lot of effort. The rice straw itself contains the nutrients needed by the rice seedlings. The two people did not know the effect, so they decided to try one part first. Discharge the water, and do the rest in the same way as last year.
When the time comes, whichever effect is good, Wang Juan will also set aside half an acre of land, and plan to take care of it with Zhang Xiaobao, take care of it regularly, and apply some of the methods he can think of as experimental plots. As for whether it is successful, To be verified.
According to the theory of the ancestors, two people wanted to find a plant in the field that did not develop males, and then chose a fuller plant for crossbreeding.
Wang Juan remembered this when he was wading in the snow, and turned around and asked Zhang Xiaobao, "Do you think hybrid rice can be successful? Why do I think our theory is a bit imperfect? If it doesn't come out, it will be a year of work in vain. "
"What if you have been busy for a year? People can be busy for so many years. You have to believe in yourself. Do you know what male sterile rice looks like? I think all the rice is the same. It's a bit difficult."
Zhang Xiaobao is confident and determined, but doesn't know how to distinguish, this is the most difficult.
Wang Juan shook her head like a rattle. She had never learned this. She occasionally glanced at other people's theories and was not interested. She guessed and said: "Is the sterility just because the other rice has grown? Isn't it long? "
"It’s not long. Which is the male and which is the female? It’s not like an animal. It’s impossible to try one by one at a glance. There are so many of us. We will mobilize the masses. We will get all the things that are not long. When advanced theories are taught to them, the power of the masses is great.
For example, pomegranate. When the weather is warm, don’t you say that you will continue to cultivate mushrooms? It's still pine mushrooms. As long as you keep doing it, you may be able to get other mushrooms. They are the kind that are raised with sawdust. They are very cheap and cost more than one yuan per catty. "
Zhang Xiaobao was going to pass his confidence to others. Wang Juan knew that he was shirking responsibility, and he didn't know how many people would be driven crazy by this theory by then.
"I think you are gloating. The pomegranate is a hero. The fungus can be used as a key public relations tool. The county magistrate Jia eats well. I heard that he gave him more than half a pound of fungus and sent it to the capital. I don’t know who it is for."
"Well, if there is such a thing, please give it to him. Give him a catty tomorrow and let him continue to give it. After giving it a few times, we will cut off the confession for the fungus, and see if the person who eats the habit can take the initiative to control him. Yes? If he is gone, we will take over. We are not afraid that they are greedy, but we are afraid that there is no way to send him."
Zhang Xiaobao put a lot of effort on this matter, to build a huge network of relationships, and to work with Wang Juan to create a big family.
Wang Juan nodded, glanced at the five people around him, and said to Zhang Xiaobao: "That county magistrate Jia is really too greedy. He has taught him twice. I still don’t know how to constrain. The one who came here to spread the letter last night was not Have you said that, the bureaucrats we arranged have already been bought by him according to the original plan."
"This is called persistence. It would be great if he can grow land. Let's give him the task of hybrid rice. Speaking of planting fungus, I suddenly thought, how do you grow ginseng? It grows over a hundred acres. If it’s done, eat it as a radish if it’s fine."
Zhang Xiaobao’s thinking was jumping. Wang Juan couldn’t even think about this ginseng. "Don’t make this idea. I don’t know what the seeds of ginseng look like. Right, it’s cold now, it’s suitable for tonic. Go to the drugstore to buy some ginseng, and come back to stew chicken for the weak.
Cut into slices and put a little less at a time. Wild ginseng is not as good as garden ginseng. It is easy to eat when stewed and chewed. I found that my grandfather's health is not very good these days. I will take a look at it later. I was tired when I was young. Yes, let's distill the wine and buy live deer. I want to make wine for Grandpa, especially deer blood.
Buy a few more and cut the antler directly when the spring starts. If you want blood from the antler, what else can be used to make wine? You help me think about it, I don’t want me to lose my family due to a minor illness before I grow up. "
After kicking the snow in front of him, Zhang Xiaobao also thought about it. Before, he only wanted to provide nutrition to his family. Now it seems that he must get some Chinese medicine for warming up, especially rheumatism and cold weather. He didn’t sleep on the kang before and worked. When I get tired, I fall asleep, and I can’t keep up with my legs and feet when I get old, so I have to find a way to relax.
"Unfortunately, we don’t have a good prescription. In the past, the dean’s grandfather also made some Chinese medicine or drink or soaked it himself. Many kinds of medicine were not remembered. It seems that there are roots, leaves, and branches of the mulberry tree. Simple, not clear about the effect. If you spend money on private collections, then I will go to your house for dinner at noon today."
"Okay, what are you going to eat?" Wang Juan also wanted to go home and have a look. He stayed with Zhang Xiaobao all day. He usually visits his family, or someone comes over, and occasionally goes out to play with Zhang Xiaobao, but he just goes home and walks around.
When Wang Juan asked, Zhang Xiaobao stopped and looked up at the sky. After pondering for a while, he said to the people following him: "Huzi, go to another village to see if anyone is willing to sell black dogs and buy one. Killed, let's go to the cuckoo's house to eat enough meat at noon."
Huzi took the order, and Zhang Xiaobao instructed Cherries again, "Take out some of the dried vegetables that our house deliberately dried in the fall, the kind that should be dried in the shade, and then soak some soybeans and prepare the coriander and everything."
Cherry also left, and Zhang Xiaobao arranged pomegranate. "The thirteen incense that I matched has a thick word on the paper bag. You go get two bags, remember to get some tangerine peels, and go to the cuckoo's house first and let people use it. Our chili bean paste is boiled with a few more scallions, remember not to put soy sauce."
"Little son, I'm going now." Pomegranate knew the little son's ability in this area, thought of having something to eat at noon, yelled happily and ran away.
"Stay steady, don't fall." Wang Juan yelled from behind looking at the lively appearance of Pomegranate. Seeing that Pomegranate hadn't heard it at all, he shook his head, "Hey... There are no rules at all."
Xiao Hong was smiling and pursing her lips. She likes to be next to the little prince and the little lady. Unlike other people, who make small mistakes and beat them with a whip. Only in front of outsiders do you have to abide by the rules. No matter what.
Wang Juan has not eaten dog meat twice before. I heard that women eat dog meat badly. When I ate it, I always felt a bit fishy. When I touched Zhang Xiaobao, he asked, "Is the dog meat fishy?"
"Well, fishy, you can’t eat anything that is not done well. Don’t worry if I do it. At this time, I will use cumin that others don’t like very much. I will make two dips for you at noon. One is The sauce is made of salt and pepper, but unfortunately there is no pepper. Where can I get some? Mountain pepper seedlings are not suitable for that thing."
Zhang Xiaobao thought of something that specializes in dog meat pot. Generally, when you eat dog meat pot in the north, you have to ask first when you enter the restaurant.
"It's there when you go to sea. Let people ask if there are any people who travel by sea now in Guangzhou, and see if they bring back any commemorative things. In case someone goes there and there are chili peppers in it, what you said is What? I have to use peppers?"
When Wang Juan heard Zhang Xiaobao talking about chili, he was a bit greedy. When he ate it before, he didn’t care, and didn’t even want to eat it very much. Now he wants to eat it but doesn’t have it. If there is one thing missing, there will be a lot less deliciousness, not to mention that chili is also resistant to moisture. Some.
Zhang Xiaobao gestured with his hands, "Spicy fish, especially in restaurants run by North Koreans. When eating dog meat, ask if there is any spicy fish before entering the door. I know how to make that sauce. The green onions in it are the most delicious. If I eat spicy cabbage, I put the sauce in it. If you don’t talk about the taste, you can only be anxious if you are missing something."
"I'm greedy about what you said, go, play there and build a house." Wang Juan swallowed when Zhang Xiaobao said, even if he just finished eating, he still wanted to eat.
"Well, you can let the children play when they rest at noon." Zhang Xiaobao let himself not want to eat, and dragged Wang Juan to run forward, with a plop, two traces of human figures appeared on the snow.
