"Brother, are you going to the city with your aunt this month?" Hehua asked during the meal.
"Well, I'm going to sell the medicinal materials, and I'll go to the bookstore to see what books are available." Although Bo Rong's tone was calm when he spoke, his eyes flickered slightly.
Hehua pouted and said, "Then take me there this time."
"What are you going to do with me?" Bo Rong immediately objected. After saying that, he felt that his tone seemed too harsh, so he softened his voice and coaxed Hehua and said, "If you don't just stay at home, why are you going to the city with me?" What should I do if I get lost if there are too many cars?”
The more he Chapter 50, clever tricks to drive away insects, beg for pink! ! ! . Saying this, He Hua felt more and more that there was something wrong with him. She kept staring at him, making him unable to sit still. Then she suddenly said: "Just leave me in the hospital. I want Xiao Xiu." Sister”
Upon hearing this, Bo Rong almost choked to death on the pastry in his mouth. He quickly dropped the bowl and chopsticks and ran out to drink half a gourd of water before finally swallowing.
Mrs. Fang complained: "What can you say if you two don't eat well? Are you choking now?" Then she said to her eldest son, "You are the same. If Hehua wants to go, just take her with you. She is not the one. Children who only know how to mess around will not mess with you."
When Borong saw Fang's words, even though he was still a little unhappy, he didn't dare to say anything more and just sat down to eat in silence.
Before the meal was finished, Zhu Laosi came in sweating profusely and said: "Second brother, it's not good. I'm afraid there will be aphids this year. I don't know where they came from, but my father was in our house just now." I saw it here, nothing happened for the time being, but it won’t be clear for a while.”
"Aphids?" Upon hearing this, Zhu Yongxin put down his bowls and chopsticks. He didn't care whether he was full or not. He picked up his coat and walked out, "Let's take a look."
Hehua also hurriedly threw the half-eaten pastry into Bonin's bowl and said: "Chapter 50: Clever trick to drive away insects, please give me pink!!!. Here, here it is." Busy also ran after Zhu Yongxin. Got out.
The crops in the field still looked pleasantly green, and there was no problem. The lotus flower ran to the ridges and looked at the low sorghum leaves. Sure enough, there were already sporadic translucent insects crawling around on the backs, turning over them one after another. After looking at a few leaves, he frowned and said, "It's indeed aphids." After that, he ran towards the entrance of the village, shouting as he ran, "Dad, let me go and have a look in our field."
Zhu Yongxin also hurriedly followed, and the father and daughter searched for a long time. Although the situation at home was better than that at Lao Zhutou's place, they also found a few aphids here and there.
"Dad, how did you deal with aphids in previous years?" Hehua asked Zhu Yongxin first.
"What else can we do? Let's burn some mugwort in the ground to smoke it." After Zhu Yongxin said this, he planned to go home and prepare.
After listening to it, Hehua turned around in her mind several times, but she didn't even think of the idea that mugwort smoked aphids. She hurriedly followed behind and asked, "Is it good if it is smoked?"
Zhu Yongxin frowned and said, "It's better than doing nothing. By the way, ask Mr. Qi, does the farming book say how to get rid of insects?"
"Dad, go and buy more tobacco leaves and dried tobacco bones. We can't wait until all the millet has been harmed before we worry, we have to clean it up now." Lotus is also very anxious. There are not many aphids now, but as long as we find them The presence of adult aphids proves that there must be aphids infested nearby. If we don’t control them as early as possible, when the number of aphids increases, they will damage the leaves of the sorghum and hinder the photosynthesis of the plants. By then, it will be too late to control them. Not only It will affect the heading time, and maybe even the grain filling, and the yield will definitely be reduced by then.
Zhu Yongxin must have known the dangers of aphid infestation. He quickly followed He Hua's instructions and bought 60 kilograms of tobacco leaves, 50 kilograms of tobacco bones and 50 kilograms of lime powder. He unloaded the things from the car without even bothering to wipe off the sweat. Just asked: "What to do next?"
Hehua asked him to grind all the tobacco bones into powder and then mix them with lime powder. Together with Fang and Jasmine, he chopped up the tobacco leaves, put them in a basin and soaked them in boiling water until the water was hot enough to put his hand in, and then used force repeatedly. Rub the tobacco leaves on the ground and change the water three times. When the juice can no longer be soaked in the tobacco leaves, filter out all the residue and mix all the water used to wash the tobacco leaves together.
By the time all these things were done, it was already getting late, and even standing across from each other couldn't see each other's features clearly. Fang and Jasmine were both so tired that they beat their backs, and Hehua started to feel anxious about her work but she didn't realize it now. As soon as I rested, I felt sore in my arms and back.
She put her hands on her lower back and straightened her body up, groaning: "I'm so exhausted that my waist is about to break."
Mrs. Fang laughed when she heard this and said, "Every kid has such a waist. Why do you want us to rub so many tobacco leaves?"
Lotus looked at the sky and said, "Let's talk about it in the morning. Spraying this water on the leaves of the millet will kill the aphids, but I haven't figured out how to make something convenient for spraying. I can't just go to the ground with a ladle." Go and splash." She frowned and thought for a long time, but couldn't think of any good way. She happened to see Bo Rong coming home, so she asked him for help, "Brother, can you think of a good way to get these tobacco leaves somewhere convenient? The water sprayed onto the sorghum leaves."
Bo Rong looked at several pots and barrels of sesame on the ground, thought for a moment, then went into the warehouse to rummage, and finally came out holding two cylindrical objects and said, "Can I use this?"
Hehua took a closer look and couldn't help but secretly cursed herself for being stupid. The thing Bo Rong took out was not unusual. It was just a water gun often played by rural children. It was made of a wooden tube and a wooden core. There is a small opening at the front, which is similar to the structure of a syringe, but it does not have such a good sealing performance. Although most of the water will spray out from the front, a little will still leak out along the gap. She pumped some water to try, and couldn't help but frown again. The main function of the water gun was to spray water far and fast. The force was still a bit strong, and it still seemed not suitable for spraying liquid medicine. She stared blankly at the wooden water gun, thinking all the time that it would be great if the water spout in front could be turned into a shower.
"Shower? What is that?" Bonin asked strangely.
Hehua was shocked to realize that she had directly said everything that was on her mind. Seeing that her family members were all staring at her, waiting for a reply, she had no choice but to describe the appearance of the showerhead with gestures and words.
Zhu Yongxin seemed thoughtful when he heard the words. He held the water gun and looked at it for a long time. He took the knife and went to find a piece of wood that he had handy and began to ponder it. Hehua saw that this was a matter of specialization in the art industry, so he stopped thinking about it. It was troublesome, but in my heart I was determined to encourage Zhu Yongxin to learn some carpentry work.
Early the next morning, Hehua asked Zhu Yongxin to call his fourth uncle to help. The whole family mobilized to spread the mixed tobacco bone powder and lime powder on the ground while the dew was still wet. Then Fang and Jasmine went to spray the potion with water guns. , Hehua and Boning helped deliver the potion from behind, and Zhu Yongxin went to help Lao Zhutou get tobacco leaves and tobacco bone powder.
After working like this for three days, I finally sprinkled all the potions on the field, including the tobacco bone powder and lime powder. Lotus went to look at the leaves in his own field. After looking for a long time, he didn't see an aphid. Finally relieved.
For the first time, Lao Zhu was not stubborn, but he said that when he was a child, he heard that tobacco leaves can repel insects, but he didn't know how to use it, so he worked with brothers Zhu Yongxin and Zhu Laosi for a few days, treating the fields in the same way as the Hehua family. After sorting it out, it turned out that all the aphids originally attracted were almost dead, but no new ones appeared again.
A few days ago, when the Hehua Family was working on it, they had already told the folks in the neighborhood, but everyone still didn’t believe in this method. They still smoked mugwort according to the traditional methods passed down from the past. Only a few of them were related to the Hehua Family. Maybe someone in the family was smart enough to learn how to do it, but they started a little too late. Some leaves had already been soaked in aphids' honey and turned red. Fortunately, they were saved in time. Didn't cause much damage.
Within a few days, the aphids became more and more serious. Those who used mugwort to fumigate the pests became more and more severe. Severe leaves had bald necks and blind tips, and the aphids' nectar attracted ants. When the sweet-loving insects couldn't care less about this place and not that way, I wanted to go see those people who used tobacco leaves to repel insects. When I saw the seedlings in the field growing tall and strong, I started to regret it and would go there again. Buying tobacco leaves, tobacco bones and lime powder was already more than twice as expensive as when Hehua's family bought them, and it made my stomach twist with distress.
Qi Laowu's house has no millet, so it actually saves a lot of money. The early-maturing vegetables can be harvested for sale. I listened to Lotus and watered them several times before. Every vegetable is full of water, which is really gratifying. I didn't feel tired all the way to the market. I sold out everything early every day and came back from work. I was in a good mood, grinning stupidly at everyone I saw, and everyone said that the old Zhu family was the boss of Lotus.
The days are about to fall, and the sky is getting hotter day by day. Although it is not as sweaty as the ones in the south, working in the fields every day makes the back of the clothes wet with sweat.
The Hehua family hurriedly gathered the spring and summer seasonal vegetables in the garden before the fall came, and began to plow the ground in preparation for planting radishes and cabbage. As the saying goes, radish and cabbage are planted in the first place, but Lao Zhu’s head is always filled with radish and cabbage. They all planted with their heads down in a heap. He himself couldn't explain why. He had only been planting like this for so many years.
Zhu Yongxin thought about it this time and asked Lotus: "How do you grow radish and weed?"
"Just follow the master's method." Hearing that Zhu Yongxin came to ask her specifically, Hehua was very happy. At least it meant that the family had begun to pay more and more attention to her opinions, and it would become easier to do what she wanted to do in the future. , but there is actually not a big difference between whether to plant radish and cabbage together or separately. Qijia Village is located in the north, so they are planted in Toufu. The cabbage can be planted better before frost, so it is actually beneficial. , she nodded and affirmed Lao Zhutou's method, but she was thinking about the potato eggs in the field. The weather has been dry recently, and those things would be troublesome if they were drought or flooded. She still had to find Qi Laowu to bring some water. Wet land is better.
