1983: From Land Sharing to Household Ownership

Chapter 44 Celebrating the Lantern Festival

"Brother, shall we eat dumplings for dinner today?"

Later, the four brothers and sisters were sitting around the big wooden table wrapping dumplings, and Wanyu asked while learning how to wrap it.

"certainly."

Wang Qiang nodded and said, "Lantern Festival, of course, we have to have an authentic one. I will eat dumplings tonight, and I won't get anything else to eat."

The Lantern Festival in the 21st century has gradually changed. Not only has it been ignored, but various delicacies have also replaced the Tangyuan feast.

On the contrary, it is the Western Valentine's Day after the Lantern Festival, which is very popular and popular in China. The Lantern Festival has no atmosphere.

At that time, there were only a few cities in the country that still maintained activities such as lantern viewing and charade guessing.

"It's good to eat dumplings!"

Wanling said on the side, "Our family has not eaten dumplings in the past few years. I have been thinking about it for a long time."

"The dumplings are very filling."

Wan Jun said, "I think each of us will be able to eat enough if we come to a bowl of Shanghai."

She vaguely remembered that five years ago, it was her four siblings who ate dumplings last time.

When my parents were built in that year, the scene at that time is vivid and fresh in my memory.

However, because of the hard life at that time, on the Lantern Festival, everyone in the family was only given a small bowl.

Thinking of the four brothers and sisters, the recent scene of eating dumplings five years ago, everyone's eyes dimmed.

It's a festival today, and it's not a good time to be sad. Wang Qiang and Wanjun immediately opened up the topic, and the four brothers and sisters immediately concentrated on wrapping the glutinous rice balls.

With Wang Qiang's patient teaching, the three girls became more and more proficient in their movements. Soon, all the dumplings to be wrapped today will be ready.

The water in the large pot on the firewood-saving stove was already boiling, and the four siblings immediately began to cook.

Soon, not only the dumplings were cooked, but also the ginger syrup was prepared. The four brothers and sisters started to eat and drink.

Tonight's single dumpling banquet was over in about half an hour because of its simplicity.

With three younger sisters washing the dishes and cleaning up the kitchen, Wang Qiang came downstairs and walked out of the house with a large wooden bucket and a water ladle.

At this time, it was still early, and dusk had just arrived for a while.

After transplanting all the bamboo forests around his own mountain forest and fields, Wang Qiang has to do this every evening, as long as it is not raining or snowing.

Without it, just use the spiritual liquid from the treasure gourd, drop it into a large wooden barrel to dilute it, and cultivate and water the transplanted bamboo roots, so as not to let the bamboo roots die due to the inappropriate transplanting time.

It is also with the spiritual liquid of the treasure gourd that he has the confidence to let the villagers cut down the bamboo forest on the mountain a month ago and transplant the bamboo roots.

Otherwise, he would never agree to the old village chief's request to cut down and transplant bamboo forests before the season.

Carrying the big wooden barrel, he passed the green pear tree near the big villa. Wang Qiang suddenly discovered something: "This...this pear tree has actually started to sprout?"

It is only the middle of February of the Gregorian calendar, and the weather has just started to warm up. Logically speaking, it will take at least 20 days before the pear trees in the tea city will begin to sprout new shoots.

He strode to the front of the green pear tree and watched it carefully.

Sure enough, on the branches of the green pear tree, on the bare branches, there is a layer of faint greenery, it is really sprouting new shoots!

"Sure enough! The diluted one-star mid-grade spirit liquid is very effective on plants!"

Before seeing the change of this green pear tree, Wang Qiang was at a loss.

Well now, judging from these dense sprouts, this green pear tree has definitely undergone an evolutionary mutation.

In the past, this green pear tree not only had few new buds every year, but it was not yet the time when the branches sprouted.

"Good! Good!"

Wang Qiang said yes.

This green pear tree is the only plant he is currently focusing on cultivating. During this period, he has been watered with the diluted spiritual liquid many times, and finally he can see the actual effect.

This made Wang Qiang extremely happy.

After confirming the magical effect of the spiritual liquid, we can focus on cultivating some plants in the future.

For example, a few hundred-year-old tea trees and several fruit trees that bloom and bear fruit in different seasons are carefully cultivated.

"Well, today you can water the last remaining piece of transplanted bamboo root with the diluted spiritual liquid, and then you don't have to worry about them dying."

He thought with joy, then turned around and strode towards the left of the big ditch.

After nearly a month of hard work, he has already watered the transplanted bamboo roots with diluted spiritual liquid, except for the last one hundred meters long.

After his many observations, those bamboo roots that had been watered with diluted spiritual liquid, not only did not die because of the wrong season when transplanting, but quickly regained their vitality and took root in the new land, and the bamboo roots began to spread. grow.

Walking quickly to the destination, Wang Qiang first filled a large bucket of water in the large ditch next to him, untied the treasure gourd around his waist, and dropped a drop of spiritual liquid.

Then, carrying the big bucket, he walked quickly to the spot marked yesterday, holding the big wooden scoop and scooping water, evenly pouring it on the dense row of bamboo roots in front of him.

He stopped and walked like this, repeated more than ten times, and he finally splashed all the bamboo roots in the last row with a distance of more than 100 meters with diluted spiritual liquid.

He checked again the large row of bamboo roots that he cultivated yesterday, and felt that the thick vitality was bursting out, and he was very happy.

With the demonstration effect of the green pear tree, Wang Qiang knows that after at most half a month, the roots of these bamboos will return to their heyday before transplantation.

Bamboo, a plant, takes a long time to develop its underground root system after it has just been planted.

Under normal circumstances, this time often takes three to five years!

right! It's as long as three or five years.

During this period, they just kept growing roots, and did not grow bamboos on the ground.

However, after the root system is established, in the spring when the sun is abundant and the temperature is suitable, after the bamboo shoots emerge from the ground, it is normal for the bamboo shoots to grow to a height of 10 meters within three to five days.

Bamboo will grow taller at this time in its whole life, and bamboo shoots with insufficient vitality will rot directly.

Once the bamboo grows, it will not grow thicker, and the height will basically not change.

Three-year-old moso bamboo is considered a material, and more than five years is an old moso bamboo, and its color turns yellow.

It is most appropriate to describe the growth process of the bamboo forest with a word "thick accumulation and thin hair".

But that's under normal circumstances.

Now, with Wang Qiang's cheating, he uses diluted spiritual liquid to restore the vitality of the bamboo roots after transplantation.

Originally, the roots of these bamboos were not damaged much. The large bamboo forest surrounding Wang Qiang's family's mountain forest and fields quickly returned to their heyday after being irrigated by Wang Qiang's diluted spiritual liquid.

It only takes Wang Qiang to continue watering the diluted spiritual liquid once. After the beginning of this spring, the large circle of bamboo forests surrounding Wang Qiang's family field and mountain forest will grow rapidly, forming a large circle of magnificent bamboo forests.

It is Wang Qiang's understanding of the habits of the bamboo forest that gives him such confidence.

After the root system of the bamboo forest is ready, a large number of bamboo shoots burst out from the ground in spring, and the growth rate will be faster than many people imagine.

After the spring bamboo shoots are constantly emerging from the ground, as long as there is sufficient rain and sunshine, it is really the same every day.

After spending a lot of time, Wang Qiang breathed a sigh of relief.

Putting down the last worry in his heart, he walked briskly carrying a large wooden barrel and returned home.

I have to get up early tomorrow to go to the village committee, which will not take too long.

Therefore, Wang Qiang went to take a bath early to rest and recharge his batteries, so as not to make mistakes tomorrow.
