Chapter 313 Building a Vegetable Greenhouse

"No." Xiao Yulian shook her head, categorically denying it.She didn't want Xiao Rui'er to worry like her after she found out.

"Mother is just tired. Don't think about it too much, just be your four-year-old child's dream. If you think about it too much, you will grow old quickly."

Seeing that the cheap mother was joking with her, Xiao Rui'er didn't ask any more questions, but kept her mind secretly.

In fact, Xiao Yulian's lethargy was fake, her mind was not idle for a moment, and she revisited the historical development of the Tang Dynasty vividly, lest she was caught by a prince and died without knowing it.

Now especially about Li Ke's history, although she didn't find all the relevant information, she still knew a lot about it.

From now on, no matter who is the emperor in Datang, as long as he doesn't involve himself.Of course, it would be the best if Li Ke could become the emperor.

It's just that such a luxury is not as easy as shown in the shot.

Needless to say that others would not agree, even Changsun Wuji alone would never allow Li Ke to ascend the throne, and he would stop at all costs.

Therefore, Xiao Yulian felt that she was not doing that useless work now, but was worried about Cheng Yaoduo. Cheng Chusi and Li Ke had a very close relationship. If Li Ke didn't ascend the throne, her family would fall into it.

Xiao Yulian understood the key to this, so she was extremely careful.But she didn't want Cheng Yaoduo and the children to know what happened today, so as not to leak the news and cause death!
After adjusting her mentality, Xiao Yulian devoted all her energy to her [-]-odd acres of land.

Taking advantage of the permafrost beginning to return to Suzhou in spring, Xiao Yulian ordered Lao Sun, Lao Zhang, Lao Ji, and Lao Wang to plow and loosen the [-]-acre thin field on the uphill slope to plant potatoes and white melons.

The remaining land with better soil quality is planted with corn.Another part of the scattered scattered land is planted with peanuts.

The vegetable greenhouse is built on the regular plot near the door of the house.

With one order, under the leadership of Steward Zhang, the people in the old house, together with Cheng Yaoduo's guards, all threw themselves into spring plowing!

As soon as Xiao Yulian started construction, Gao Yicheng followed suit.He personally took several sons of his own family, drove the cart, led the ox, and pulled the iron wood plow that Xiao Yulian helped him make, and went to work on the ground.

And Jin Shouyi, now Xiao Yulian's cousin, was not to be outdone, and brought along his eldest son, whose original name was Feng Zhi, who was now renamed Jin Zhi, and his second son, Jin Qiang, followed closely by his father, and started to get busy.

It will take some time for spring plowing, the county countess and the Gao family, why did Jin Dalang want to start farming?
The villagers in Yueliang Village were secretly puzzled, and An Xie's family, who had originally signed a corn planting contract with Xiao Yulian and then backed out, followed suit with mixed feelings.

What made the big guys even more puzzled was that the Cui family went out with Li, and now she has become the County Countess's Yulian Xiao, what does she want to do?

On the large piece of land in front of the old house, the guards were driving piles around to build a shed as tall as a person.

The top of the shed is open to the air, and only some strong cork is used to build a frame. The outside is covered with grass felt at night, and white and black light burlap is not covered during the day.

"What is she going to do?"

"I do not know."

"You said that she was so poor that she spoiled all the good fabrics, and the county earl didn't care about her?"

"What are you talking about? Didn't I hear that the Count of the county doted on her so much that he almost spoiled her? How could he be willing to say a word about her?"

The discussions of the villagers did not affect the progress of Xiao Yulian's project at all. In less than ten days, a vegetable greenhouse covering an area of ​​five acres was built.

Because the shed at this moment is not covered with the kind of plastic used by later generations, the temperature can't go up, so Xiao Yulian ordered someone to build a small kang in the shed, and asked Lao Sun to build a few long iron buckets with two sides. The transparent one was used as a flue, and then two careful and steady guards were hired to be the leader of the fire. They lit the kang with branches and smoked it every day to increase the temperature in the shed.

"Daughter-in-law, is this the vegetable greenhouse you mentioned? By doing this, you can grow fresh vegetables in winter?" Cheng Yaoduo looked at this rare thing, walked around it three times, asked no less than seven or eight times, and was overjoyed. The eyes are full of peach blossoms.

When Xiao Yulian faced Cheng Yaoduo, she had such a good temper that people couldn't stand it, but she still answered in a gentle voice, "Yes, this thing is as simple as that, but there are fresh vegetables to eat in the cold winter .By the way, we don’t need the cold winter now, and in a few days, we will be able to eat the vegetables we grow ourselves.”

"Hey, that's great. Mr. Ben is waiting to eat the fresh vegetables grown by his wife." Cheng Yaoduo grinned like a child, full of anticipation.

But Xiao Yulian's next words put him out immediately, "Master, as the saying goes, do it yourself, and have enough food and clothing! If you want to eat fresh vegetables, you have to grow them yourself. Let's do this, this vegetable shed will be contracted to you from now on. It’s up to you, the money you earn, after deducting the costs and expenses, you can divide it between two and eight!”

"What? Mr. Ben has to grow vegetables by himself? And... still contract it to me? Give me [-]% of the money if you make money?" Cheng Yaoduo yelled, and the fool agreed to do so.

Xiao Yulian squinted at him, not in a hurry, and said slowly, "What? You don't want to?"

"Ah? Oh." When Cheng Yaoduo saw Xiao Yulian, his expression was indifferent, and his tone was also indifferent. How could there be any warmth from just now?Nodding hastily, "I agree, I agree! My lady ordered me to do so."

Therefore, the vegetable greenhouse planting was contracted to Cheng Yaoduo.

Because it was the first time to plant a greenhouse, Xiao Yulian was worried about other people's operation, and was afraid of ruining the good vegetable seeds, so she went into the greenhouse and gave Cheng Yaoduo a demonstration while explaining and guiding him, asking him to be particularly meticulous and careful not to be negligent and lazy.

The old house is so lively, it has attracted many villagers to wait and see.

Qiao and Gao Zhou also came to help in their spare time, helping with fertilization and planting seeds.

In fact, they also want to learn how to plant greenhouses by helping them.

Of course, Xiao Yulian did not stop them, and in the end, together with Cheng Yaoduo, they called Gao Yicheng and Jin Shouyi, and asked them to bring their sons to learn by doing.

It's just that Xiao Yulian didn't give them those vegetable seeds, but only asked them to learn it in the first year, and when she succeeded in the experiment, she would consider the two of them planting vegetable greenhouses.

On this day, Xiao Yulian and the others were busy in the vegetable shed, and Zhang's daughter-in-law ran to find Xiao Yulian, "Patriarch, someone from the Cui family came and said they came to recognize the young master and young miss."
