Chapter 25: Planting seedlings

Seedlings can be planted in Shen's paddy field after two days of soaking. Early that morning, Shen Yanbei and others went to the fields to plant seedlings.
The seedlings were bought by the head of Shen Yanbeituo village, who happened to belong to the third brother Shen's house.
When Shen Yanbei arrived in the ground, Wu Sange was already there waiting for him.
"Sange Wu, so early? Have you eaten it?"
"I have eaten it!" Wu Sange smiled kindly. His own seedlings have already been planted. Hearing that Shen Yanbei's family is planting seedlings today, he came over to take a look.
The eight acres of paddy fields in the Shen family are connected together, and you can't see the side at a glance. It is probably not enough to survive a busy day.
The three of Uncle Xu are all experienced hands. After taking the seedlings, they squatted down in the fields and started to work.
Gu Changfeng took off his shoes and rolled up his trouser legs to get into the water.
Shen Yanbei didn't want him to do this job. He kept bending over and repeating the same movement, his arms and waist were sore after a long time. But Gu Changfeng looked at him quietly with those quiet black eyes, and he felt relieved.
His wife said: Husband, what you said, I will do what I am good at and you do what you are good at, and the division of labor and cooperation between us will be very good. Since you want to increase food production, I will be responsible for farming.
What can you say he can say?
Gu Changfeng has never planted seedlings, but it is not difficult to plant them. Asking Uncle Xu for advice, the planting looks good.
"Shen Yan, your husband has planted land before? This method of planting seedlings is really amazing!" Wu Sange looked at Gu Changfeng, who quickly planted a line of seedlings and started another line, with shock in his eyes.
Shen Yanbei smiled without saying a word, feeling very depressed. Could it be bad? Use martial arts to plant seedlings! It is estimated that the whole world will use martial arts masters to plant seedlings!
The four worked together, and one mu of land was quickly inserted. Shen Yanbei carefully lifted the wooden barrel on the bank.
"Shen Yan, what are you doing?" Watching Shen Yanbei pour water from the wooden barrel into the field, Wu Sange walked over curiously. When I got closer, I discovered that the barrel was not only filled with water, but also thin fry!
Wu Sange changed his face and hurriedly stopped him: "Shen Yan, don't mess around! This fish will ruin the rice fields." Farmers rely on the ground to eat. If this fish eats seedlings and destroys the soil, then Don't expect to have a harvest this year!
"It's okay." Shen Yanbei patiently explained to him what is fish and rice symbiosis.
"This fish is not as big as a finger and will not hinder the growth of seedlings. On the contrary, the fish swimming in the water will increase the water activity and nutrients..."
Seeing that Brother Wusan was still at a loss, Shen Yanbei tried his best to explain it in straightforward terms: "This fry is small, only eats things in the water, and can't bite the seedlings. The manure produced by the fry can also add fertilizer to the seedlings. Wait for the fry. When it grows up, the roots of the seedlings grow stable..."
Brother Wusan thought about it carefully, and it seemed to be the reason.
but……
"When the rice seedlings are headed and the rice is formed, the fish must not eat the rice?" Wu Sange said distressedly.
"This is the place to pay attention. It is important to pay attention to how many fry you put in an acre of paddy field. If you put too much fry, the rice will be eaten by the fish. The gain is not worth the loss. If you put less fry, it will not achieve the goal of symbiosis..." To increase the credibility, Shen Yanbei had to move the book out: "This is what I saw from the miscellaneous magazine. This is how the villages in other places grow rice. This is mutually beneficial for fish and rice, and rice production increases. Fatter."
Can it be farmed like this? Wu Sange was uncertain.
Can't you accept this? At that time he will have to put ducks in the fields! Shen Yanbei smiled and looked up at the sky.
Fortunately, the sun today is not poisonous, otherwise he would have damaged his daughter-in-law and he would not feel bad about it.
The three brothers Wu thought for a moment, and said solemnly to Shen Yanbei: "Shen Yan, if this method really works, teach me the next time you plant seedlings, and I will raise the best seedlings for you!" Looking at a bumper harvest of grain, who would not want to increase grain production?
Shen Yanbei responded with a mouthful: "It's OK, when you harvest the rice, Brother Wu, come and take a look. I will tell the village chief, let everyone who wants to learn come together, and I will teach you to grow it."
"Thank you so much!" Wu Sange was full of excitement.
Shen Yanbei smiled slightly and saw that the third acre of paddy field was finished, and waved to Gu Changfeng: "Daughter-in-law, come up, let's go home and cook."
Gu Changfeng did not insist. They hired someone to take care of the meal. He had to go back with Shen Yanbei. Even if he didn't cook the meal, people would not know that the meal was made by Shen Yanbei.
"Come on, take a drink." Gu Changfeng's nose was covered with fine beads of sweat on his forehead, and Shen Yanbei didn't care if anyone was there, so he pulled his sleeve and wiped his sweat.
Gu Changfeng's face was red, and he didn't know if he was suntan or shy, but he didn't stop Shen Yanbei.
Wu Sange was surprised when he saw the two of them. Shen Yan's temperament has changed drastically, and even his preferences have changed! A woman who doesn't like being pretty and charming, on the contrary, loves this man-like husband who is strong and resolute. It's incredible!
After Gu Changfeng put on his shoes and socks, Shen Yanbei led the people to the house.
"Tired?"
Gu Changfeng shook his head, and doing this work was just like warming up, and he couldn't even use his internal strength.
"Daughter-in-law, you can teach me some martial arts, the kind used to strengthen the body." The physical quality of this body is so bad that it can't even compare with half of the wife. He had been thinking about exercising well before, but the exercise method he knew would be too weird in the eyes of others, and his wife was a master, so it was better to ask her to teach directly than to explain it himself.
Gu Changfeng hesitated: "You have to persist to be effective. It will be very tiring."
"It's okay, I can't be a big man less than a little kid?" Zhou Yu came to their house every day to report, even if his wife was absent, he obediently pounced and waited for his wife to come back to check. He still admires the child. Perseverance.
Gu Changfeng pondered for a while and said, "I will teach you a set of boxing techniques."
"Okay!" Shen Yanbei was a little excited, and asked with interest, "Daughter-in-law, what skills do you do? Do you have any weapons you are used to?"
Gu Changfeng thought hard, his eyes darkened, "I don't remember..."
Shen Yanbei felt a pity in his heart. His daughter-in-law must be very handsome with a sword and a gun! But the chief caregiver closed his eyebrows and hurriedly comforted: "It doesn't matter if you don't remember, life is peaceful, you don't need to use swords and swords. Let's grow the fields and do a little business!"
Gu Changfeng said softly "um".
When the two returned home, Zhou Yu was feeding the rabbit, and a fat man sat in the yard bored and watched him feed the rabbit.
"Shen Yan!" Seeing them come back, the fat man's eyes lit up and quickly stood up.
"Brother Laifu, I have been waiting a long time." Shen Yanbei smiled apologetically.
"It's okay, I just arrived, haha..." Shen Laifu looked anxious, "Then we can start now?"
Gu Changfeng looked puzzled, and Shen Yanbei smiled lightly to explain to him: "He is the chef I want to invite. I naturally have to understand what he will cook."
Gu Changfeng was stunned, and suddenly understood.
"He made those dishes?"
"You think?" Shen Yanbei teased, "I only cook for my daughter-in-law. Others don't have this treatment."
Gu Changfeng's eyes gleamed, and his heart felt as warm as he was immersed in warm water.
"Daughter-in-law, I..."
Before he finished speaking, he only felt a hot side of his face. As soon as the temperature was touched, he hadn't reacted yet, Gu Changfeng took Zhou Yu out of the house, he could only see the red ears.
Shen Laifu: "..."
He didn't see anything!
Shen Yanbei touched his cheek, joy and sadness in his heart.
The happy thing is that the wife is more and more active, but the worry is that he has more than enough energy.
How can this be done?
How about... go see the doctor again and ask?
The three Uncle Xu, who were still busy in the field, finished planting the seedlings in their hands and went to the shore to drink water and rest.
"Father, what do you think Shen Xiucai's family will do today?" The younger son Xu Da wiped his sweat and asked expectantly.
Xu Dayong glared at him and cursed angrily: "You child, did I need you to eat or drink in the past? Take you to a part-time job, and you still miss the main house's meals!"
"You're not short, I eat and drink, but you have to see what kind of dishes your mother cooks!" Xu Da was aggrieved, "fried a dish like boiled in water, tasteless. Let her whole fish. It’s too fishy, ​​so you can drink the stewed meat soup..."
"Your mother worked so hard to cook for you, and you still pick and choose. You can stand it!" Xu Dayong kicked the youngest son.
Xu Da jumped up and said, "The meal in the family's family is delicious! The ordinary stir-fried vegetables can be made bright and green, and you will have an appetite!"
The eldest son Xu Zhi said silently: "That fish is delicious."
Xu Dayong: "..."
Originally, he thought that Shen Yanbei was responsible for rice, which meant to give pickles and steamed buns, but to his surprise, Shen Yanbei prepared a very serious meal: multi-grain rice, a stir-fried vegetable, one meat and one soup. .
Two dishes and one soup are not expensive meals. But the color and taste really make people eat the tongue! When eating on the first day, his two sons almost ate all the food in their pot! Lost his old face!
"Hey, I'm so hungry, when will Shen Xiucai deliver food?" Xu Da muttered.
"I know I'm thinking about eating, and finish the work quickly!" Xu Dayong blushed and pushed his two sons into the field.
Two bastards! He said he was hungry!
