Chapter 248 Winter Wheat

In the evening, the sun was about to hit the high mountains in the sky. The talents of the old Zhou family came back from the outside with buckets, hoes, or muddy hands. Only then did they know that Man Bao was learning medicine by himself, and he was able to give it today. Zhou Dalang has seen a doctor.

  Of course, this is what Xiao Qian said.

  Zhou Dalang repeatedly emphasized, “Man Bao read the book for two and a half days and didn’t see anything.”

  Lao Zhoutou automatically skipped Zhou Dalang's words, he happily recruited Man Bao in front of him, and said happily: "Yes, yes, Man Bao learns more. In the future, if anyone in the family gets sick, I will look at you."

  Man Bao nodded happily.

  This time not only Zhou Dalang, but everyone else felt a chill in their backs, especially those on Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday, who are still suffering from injuries.

  The happiest family is probably Lao Zhoutou and Man Bao.

  The father and daughter are in a happy confrontation.

Qian ignored them and recruited the second, third, and fourth to the front and said: "Your injuries are almost healed. Tomorrow, I will go to the village chief’s house to borrow a scooter and go to the city to buy tiles together. It's best to fix the roof in two days tomorrow."

Old Zhoutou’s attention was diverted, and he nodded repeatedly and said, “Yes, yes, I went to take a look today. The sun has been good these two days, and the wheat has started to turn yellow. Arrange the work at home, otherwise you will be busy in summer, but you won’t have time to take care of the house anymore."

  Everyone responded.

"By the way, I went down to the ground and took a closer look today, and found that some wheat grows very well, the wheat ears are long and full," Lao Zhou turned his head and said to Qian, "Tomorrow, let the old man, the second child's A few of them went to the field with me to look for them and note the location of those wheat ears. When the time comes for harvesting, we will cut these first and stay as seeds."

  Qian nodded, and asked, "Is it much better?"

"It's much better." At this point, Lao Zhou himself was a little confused, frowning and said: "I have walked three plots in a row, and there are some such wheat ears mixed in it. I haven't found it last time. The second time I saw them, they were slightly taller than normal wheat ears. The key is that the wheat ears are very long and the grains are full. It is a pity. If this year is not flooded, I think it would be better."

  "But this year's seeds are the same as in previous years. The methods of planting are the same as in previous years. Is it because they have been flooded, so some have become like this?"

  Thursday Lang asked, "Father, do we want to flood the wheat next year?"

  Lao Zhou thought, as if he was considering the feasibility.

  Man Bao with a guilty conscience: ...that's because she mixed some wheat seeds bought in the mall~~

   She glared at Chu Lang, who gave her father a bad idea, and said to her father: "Father, I have never heard that Maizi likes to be flooded."

Old Zhou's head shook his head, "I think the fourth child is right. Choose a smaller field next year. Then you can try to pour water into it. You can know if it is good in dry land or in paddy field. NS."

  Man Bao collapsed his shoulders and asked Keke in his heart, "What should I do?"

  Keke comforted: "Host, anyway, you have a lot of land, so it’s okay to use a small field for experimentation."

Ok.

  But Man Bao was reluctant to think that the seeds she had so easily mixed in would eventually cost a part of the experiment, so she held up her little head to think hard.

  For a long time, she finally thought about it, and the whole family looked at her when she patted her little hand.

  Man Bao looked at Lao Zhou tou happily, "Father, we can grow winter wheat."

The temperature here is not low in winter. Although she has never seen anyone here grow it, Man Bao found from the book from Keke that in the future, humans will not only grow winter wheat, but also in spring and summer. .

  The land can be used to the greatest extent, but this indirect seeding method requires a lot of soil power, otherwise the soil power will be lost in the end and the crops planted will not be good.

  I don’t want to plant something in between, but I can plant winter wheat.

In winter, there is little water, even if there is no water in the paddy fields. It happens to be used to grow wheat. After planting this crop, the old man will naturally know that this is the problem of seeds. When the time comes, he will classify which reason, but it must not be because It mutates only after being flooded.

  Of course, Man Bao couldn’t tell Lao Zhou too like that, so she smashed her fingers to count the benefits of winter wheat.

   "Father, isn't the disaster this year serious? If we don't grow winter wheat, what should we do if we have nothing to eat in April and May next year?"

  Lao Zhoutou was about to speak, Man Bao continued: "Yizhou has been hit so badly this year, and next year the price of food will definitely be high. If we grow more, we can sell it and make money."

  Lao Zhoutou thought about it, "I'm afraid that the land force is not enough."

  Of course he knows that the climate here can be used to grow winter wheat. In the past years, the village was also planted. Even now, the white landlord would plant winter wheat every other year. At that time, he would hire day laborers from the village, and Zhou Dalang would all go there.

  But at that time, the white landlord, his field was very fat, and he prepared enough fertilizer.

  It’s not easy for people like them to grow winter wheat, and it’s easy to consume too much soil. Winter wheat may not be good at that time, and it will affect rice planting in the coming year.

  In addition, the people in Qili Village are not short of land. There are few people. I really want to get some grain of winter wheat. In spring and summer, I will plant more of that land. Intensive farming is almost possible.

   is better than planting the ground spoiled.

but……

  Lao Zhou began to think, hasn’t it been a disaster this year?

  Maybe planting winter wheat is a way, especially now whether it is tax-free is still unknown.

  If it is unavoidable, then everyone's life next spring will be too sad.

  Man Bao continued: "Father, if you are afraid of not having enough fertility, let the eldest brother and the others pour more fat, then spread a little more, and then spread some more when the wheat is harvested and plowed."

  Lao Zhou nodded, "This is a way, what do you think?"

  He looked at Qian.

  Qian groaned, “It’s OK to plant more. If you plant too much, I’m afraid of not getting enough fat. Although the fattening is faster now, it’s not enough.”

  Man Baoli said of course: "Then go buy it."

  Qian asked with a smile, "Where can I buy this?"

   "I know, county town," Man Bao said, "I asked Master Bai, he bought it from the people who collected Yexiang in the county town."

  Everyone:...

  Xiao Qian’s knocked her little head and said, “The food is ready, let’s eat first, and talk about it when we finish.”

  Man Bao didn’t notice anything, and ate with relish. After eating, he took out the box of snacks Liu gave her to share with everyone.

  Other people think this meal has a strange taste. Fortunately, it was made by my sister-in-law. If it was made by other people, they would not be able to eat it.

  Lao Zhoutou planned how many acres of wheat he would grow, holding a piece of filial piety dim sum and eating it with gusto, and finally clapped his hands: "Okay, this year our family will try to grow a kind of winter wheat."
