Chapter 35: The best sister-in-law in the 1980s (35)

Chapter 35 The best sister-in-law in the 1980s (35)

After thanking the village party secretary, Xu Dajiao started mixing fish food with rapeseed cake residue when he returned home.

But I have not forgotten what the old party secretary emphasized. Mix it with wheat bran and bran and throw it into a jar to ferment for two or three days. When it is completely decomposed, sprinkle it to the fish.

I dont know if its her psychology or the fact, but I always feel that after feeding the fish food mixed with rapeseed cake residue, the fish will indeed grow much faster than before.

After that, when he saw Xus mother, Xu Dajiaos attitude became obviously much more enthusiastic.

Xu's mother was confused and complained to Father Xu after returning home: "Guobang's wife has been acting weird lately. She smiles every time she sees me and makes my skin crawl. Is she trying to trick me into something bad?"

Daddy Xu said speechlessly: "If someone has a cold face, you will whisper behind your back, and you will also whisper if you are enthusiastic. What do you want?"

"What can I think? It's not that she is overly enthusiastic, and who knows what bad ideas she is holding back."

Xus mother snorted.

A few days later, Xu's mother met her cousin again.

This time, she was not only smiling and enthusiastic, but also stuffed her with a basket of eggs and asked her to take them back to Xu Yin to replenish her body.

Thanks to your family, Yin Yin, otherwise my fish would not have grown so well and so fast. From this point of view, it seems that only those who are good at reading and educated can be successful.

Xu Dajiao was filled with emotions, and he just held Xus mothers hand and burst into tears.

"Jinhua, it was my fault in the past. At that time, I saw that you loved your daughter, and you lost all sense. I was a little displeased with you. Now think about it, if I had such a smart, capable, and motivated daughter, I would be better than you. Still hurt her..."

Xus mother:

Understood! He co-authored the fish food recipe contributed by his daughter, so that they could taste the sweetness and come to compete with him for his daughter.

Bring the eggs back, its not like I dont have eggs at home. However, if you want to love your daughter, let Guobonu work hard. Maybe you can catch the last train and add a sister to Jianjun. Dont come and rob my family of Yinyin.

After saying that, Xus mother turned and left.

Xu Dajiao:

Hey! Just say that Geng Jinhua and her are not compatible!

Look, what nonsense is this? I'm old, you want me to have another child? Are you sure you won't make people laugh if you spread the word?

Xu Yin, who was putting on her clothes at home, laughed until her stomach hurt after listening to what her mother said.

"Mom, where did you hear that my aunt wanted to steal me from you? She wanted to express her gratitude on the one hand, and apologize for not dealing with you in the past. Where did you go with this?"

Its not even that far across the country, and people are left to give birth on their own...

Her mother is so talented at criticizing people.

Xu's mother then realized that she had misunderstood and had made a mistake for a long time, but the misunderstanding had already been caused and she would not do it if she was asked to apologize.

In the worst case, Ill come back and ask you to make clothes for her next time, so I can give her a piece of clothing cheaper?

Unexpectedly, as soon as he finished speaking, Xu Dajiao came to the door with a piece of cloth.

In fact, she has long wanted to ask Xu Yin to make a summer dress. Many women in the village have asked Xu Yin to make summer dresses with short sleeves and cropped pants. They look cool at first sight.

It's true that I couldn't help but feel embarrassed before, but now I was scolded by Geng Jinhua, so I thought about it.

As the old saying goes: Dont hit someone with a smiling face. She came to the door with a smile. What could Geng Jinhua do to her?

From the corner of her eye, Xu Yin saw her mother's eyes straighten and her face turned dark, and she knew she was grieving for the one dollar she had promised.

He held back his smile and looked away, concentrating on entertaining Aunt Bigfoot.

Time passed quietly by making clothes, raising fish, and helping the family with housework within their capabilities.

The busy farming season of May has passed in the blink of an eye. Xu Yins family is not planting wheat this year. They plan to plant two crops of rice in the high-quality grain fields and raise two crops of rice and fish.

Except for the rice fields, all dry land is planted with watermelons.

Watermelon seeds were purchased from Xu Yinwens system mall.

Fish food formula and melon seeds, these two alone used up all the energy points she had worked so hard to accumulate.

But I dont regret it either. Whether Old Xus family can get rid of poverty and become prosperous depends on them.

The reason why I contributed the fish food formula was mainly because I didnt want to be too conspicuous.

As for watermelons, Mr. Xu is already good at it. The melon seeds he asked the system to exchange for were exactly the same as those that Mr. Xu originally planted. When the watermelons are harvested, others will at most think that Mr. Xu has invested more in serving the melons. Like the ancestors, they would not guess the melon seeds.

No, Mr. Xu planted the first batch of melons during spring plowing. They matured around the end of June or early July, which happened to be the busy time of harvesting early rice. It was a refreshing break from the busy work to have a piece of sweet and juicy watermelon.

Therefore, the farming season in May is busy. Other peoples families are so busy after harvesting wheat and rapeseed, and then squatting down to plant corn. Her family only needs to harvest one acre of rapeseed, and then plant the second batch of watermelons, so they wont be so busy that they lose strength. .

The late-planted melons will have to wait until the end of August to mature, which is exactly the time when the late rice seedlings are planted and the new batch of rice flower fish are raised. It is also a pleasure to eat watermelon in your spare time.

Four acres of paddy fields, three acres of melons, and two hundred and sixty-eight rice flower fish have become the busy place of the old Xu family this year, but it is much easier than in previous years.

Even if you have to work in the fields every day, daily maintenance is definitely much easier than harvesting, plowing, and sowing one after another.

Also, despite the lack of work, the actual harvest may not be small.

Xu Yin has carefully calculated that if these four acres of paddy fields are planted twice a year, the harvest in a year can be conservatively estimated to be about 2,600 kilograms, barring natural disasters or floods.

This is still the current yield per mu. When hybrid rice is popularized in the future, the yield will be even higher.

But even with the current per-acre yield, excluding the public grains handed over, the family not only has enough to eat, but can also sell it to the grain station in exchange for some white flour, cornmeal and other condiments.

This is why she advised Father Xu not to plant wheat or corn this year. If he really wants to eat tender corn, he can just plant a small amount in the private land. Rice can be grown in paddy fields and watermelons can be grown in dry land.

Tractors are also very convenient for plowing. It's as smooth as a flat river. The land is plowed in just a few strokes, deep and fast.

In the future, with the advent of farming machines, manpower will be saved for transplanting rice seedlings.

If everything is planted, the fields will be divided into pieces and it will be inconvenient to plow all the fields. How can the efficiency be high?

Besides, after planting these two, what can you eat but not get in exchange for? Really, there is no need to grow everything yourself if you want to eat it.

From three acres of melon fields, Xu Yin conservatively estimates that she can earn 500 yuan.

In the season, rice and fish will eat less, and they will eat a little, but there should be dozens of pieces of accounts.

The two elders must be very surprised, right?

The income of 600 yuan a year is not bad compared to working in a factory. After all, I am self-sufficient in rice, I dont have to spend any money, and I still have enough to take care of.

But there is still a big gap between living a moderately prosperous life.

Take your time, you wont become fat if you eat in one go, and the days will get better and better.

Over there, Xu Zhinian settled the mother and son, sent a letter and money home, and talked about the current situation of the family. At the end of the letter, he invited his younger sister to stay in the family home for a while. His wife and children missed her very much.

Xu's mother saw that her daughter was busier at home than at school, so she decided to let her go to her boss's place to relax.

Go and stay with your brother for a few days and eat more meat.
