Chapter 185 Digging Bamboo Shoots
She doesn't want to earn money alone, Ding Xuewei doesn't know whether to say that Aunt Zhang Qi is too selfless, or whether she should say that she is so lucky that she is not selfish in finding a partner.

"Let's talk about it after Uncle and the others leave."

"It's really hard for everyone to find time these two days!" Aunt Zhang Qi nodded: "One day tomorrow, my family will be able to chop all the cabbage, and it will take half a month for the beans."

"Have you settled the matter of the laborers?" Ding Xue asked slightly.

Aunt Zhang Qi nodded: "Everything has been adjusted. It just so happens that the small vegetable field is laid out to join the bean field. In half a month, the remaining grass branches and leaves in your field will dry up, and then your field will be soaked."

"Our fields are flooded first!" Ding Xue frowned slightly.

I don't know when the water truck will be delivered, and the village's water reservoir is not even enough for the village's own land.

She was so obvious that Aunt Zhang Qi saw through her thoughts at a glance: "In more than a month, your water truck should be able to arrive. At that time, we will fill the spring water and you carry the pond water. It should be just right."

"Why do I have a feeling that something is wrong." Ding Xuewei was not very confident: "I have to tell my grandpa later, see if I can ask."

With the number of people recruited by the government, the water tanker for her should have been ready long ago, but there is no sign of it at this time. I am afraid that things will change, so I have to go to the city to ask what's going on. If it doesn't work, I can just pay for it myself.

She still wants to continue to buy land, but the twelve sets rewarded by the government are not enough.

In the following time, the two chatted sporadically, whose beans could be cracked first, and whose broad beans were very shrunken, until Ding Xuewei sifted all the rice grains.

At 10:30, Jin Lao and the others and the children had already fallen asleep.

The two washed up with ease, and then went into their respective rooms.

The next morning, Mr. Jin and Mr. Qiu still took the Pandi sisters into the dense forest as scheduled, while Mr. Bai, as always, explained the pharmacology to Anping and cooked medicine for Jin Huan.

As for Tian Chong, he was left behind by Jin Lao, and after Ding Xuewei went to feed pigs, cows, pheasants and hares, he carried water with Zhang Qi.

Tian Chong has great strength and can carry two loads at once. When Ding Xuewei fed the animals and went back, he even took back the bathtub that was still in Qiao's house and it was full of water.

"Xuewei, you go ask your grandpa about the buckets and basins first, and let's wash the grain seeds first."

At this time, the Zhang family was moving grain seeds, Zhang's, and hers.

Seeing her, Aunt Zhang Qi said quickly.

After glancing at Tian Chong who was carrying four cloth bags, Ding Xuewei hurried to Qiao's house.

Old man Ding naturally followed the trend of soaking rice seeds in the village.

Mrs. Li had long forgotten about farming, and Mrs. Li and Mrs. Wang just followed orders in the past. They all knew the process, but they didn't dare to say that they knew everything that should be paid attention to.

Naturally, old man Ding listened to the arrangement of the old village chief.

At this moment, the family is carrying water with Qiao's family.

"You don't soak the seeds?"

Seeing Ding Xuewei enter the door, Wen Jing, who was in charge of cooking with the baby, raised her eyebrows and looked at her.

"Soak." Ding Xue nodded slightly.

Doubt flashed in Wen Jing's big round eyes, and he said defensively: "Then why are you here? The family can't help you."

Ding Xuewei didn't know what to say about her sister-in-law, and looked at the bathtub in the yard.

"Let me ask if there are enough buckets and basins at home."

"You don't have enough?" She showed a knowing look: "I didn't borrow yours, we have to squeeze some of ours, and it's not that I don't know about the addition of a new place at home."

The family has 110 mu, and Li's and Xiao Li's Wang's have another [-] mu. Both grain seeds need about [-] catties.

Not to mention buckets and basins, there are seven or eight large bathtubs.

The old man did buy a lot out of trouble, but after adding the newly bought [-] mu of land, there was not much, just enough.

Wen Jing was afraid that Ding Xue would open her mouth slightly, so she immediately talked about adding new land.

Ding Xuewei was only worried about the addition of a new land to her family. She said so, and she didn't even bother to talk about borrowing from the villagers.

"I'm leaving."

"By the way, take your pot away." Wen Jing didn't want to make that trip.

Ding Xuewei waited for her to bring out the pot.

I wasn't in a bad mood at first, but after seeing the unwashed pot, I felt bad.

"What are you doing?" Wen Jing asked viciously.

Grinning with a smug smile, Ding Xue said slightly: "Don't do anything."

You didn't even wash the pot this time, so I won't give it away next time.

After putting the pot on, she went straight to the spring, and didn't say anything when she met old man Ding and the others on the road.

After washing the grain seeds and rice and soaking them in the hair, it was getting late, so I made a rice bowl and started to braise the beef.

Pandi and the others don’t come back at noon, so they have to take dried beef or strips of dried meat into the dense forest and set fire to it. Braised meat is different, just take it and eat it directly. Besides, the climate has begun to warm up, and cured meat is no longer suitable.

The stewed meat set Anping on fire, and she went to the bamboo forest with a basket on her back.

It's not that I don't believe the words of Qiao's family, but I just want to try something new.

When Ding Xuewei went out, she was facing the farming crowd of Jiyang Mansion who were going up to Yuequan Village. She was really surprised by the mighty crowd. Standing on the side of the road and watching, the village head, old man Ding and others all came.

"Now I'm finally relieved!" The old village chief who had watched the crowd off his eyes booed.

Zhang Qiang said that he would be able to enter the city to collect people today, but he hadn't heard a single sound in the past two days, and he began to suspect that something happened or that there were not many people there.

Now, seeing this mighty crowd, the hoisted Xin is always stable!
"Grandpa, why don't you invite a few more people." Ding Xuewei only felt the banknotes jumping in his pocket: "I will buy another two hundred acres when the family land opens."

Opening his mouth, old man Ding, who wanted to say that 150 people are enough, choked.

"Go to the city tomorrow to see, if possible, I will invite a few more."

The talent arrives today, and it is mostly useless to follow into the city. It is more appropriate to enter the city tomorrow.

Ding Xuewei was not stupid, so he couldn't ask why he went only tomorrow, so he nodded and lifted the shoulder strap of the carrying basket.

"I'm going to find bamboo shoots."

"Two days ago, your village chief's grandfather's house gave it to your family. You can just dig yours, and you don't have to worry about your family."

Ding Xuewei, who originally wanted to send some to her family, immediately dismissed the idea.

"understood."

"Just look for it on the side of the road, don't go too deep, the snakes in the bamboo forest are very venomous." The old village chief explained after some consideration.

Ding Xue, who took two steps, turned her head slightly: "Grandpa, the village chief, I know."

It's almost stinging, and the snakes and insects are starting to be active!

In reality, Ding Xuewei has never seen a large-scale bamboo forest, and naturally she has never done digging bamboo shoots. She walked along the roadside without any experience, and the three she dug before and after were all due to luck.

After another walk, she had to take a few steps into the woods.

Going forward, she was out of the range of Yuequan Village. Although she was not afraid of any accidents, she still wanted to avoid accidents as much as possible.

The three bamboo shoots that Ding Xuewei dug before and after were not big, so she wanted to dig a few more, but she couldn't find the bamboo shoots all the way back, so she inevitably went a little further in.
