Chapter 201 In order to build a house
When the time came to May, Qiulin's second crop of silkworms also began to weave silk.After several times of silkworm rearing, Han's silkworm rearing technology has become more and more mature, making them spin silk, cocoon, and silk reeling more and more familiar.It was the first time for other silkworm farmers in the village to raise silkworms, and they all came to ask Han if they didn't understand anything.

Han did not hide it, and patiently taught them one by one, telling them the essentials of silkworm rearing.There were young daughters-in-law and some unmarried girls who also asked Mr. Han for advice. They listened very carefully, and according to the methods taught by Mr. Han, they successfully reeled silk.This silk is something that can be sold at a very high price. The family has worked hard for a month, and the last silk is only one or two catties, but one catty of silk can be sold for two taels of silver.Seeing the white money in hand, everyone felt that the effort was not in vain.

Others in the village saw that the life of these silkworm farmers was getting better and better, so they also started to fiddle with this thing.Later, mulberry trees were planted on the ridges of every household.Some households with a lot of fields even set aside a piece of land for planting mulberry trees.

The mulberry fruit is made into honey-soaked fruit and sold for money, and the mulberry leaves are fed to the silkworms, which kills two birds with one stone.

After the second crop of silkworms cocooned and sold for money, everyone started to raise the third crop of silkworms in full swing. The time must be tight, if you wait a little longer, the mulberry leaves will not grow very well.So it takes time to raise silkworms.

"Mother, this silkworm pays quickly. Otherwise, if we raise more, the mulberry trees in the field will grow well, and there will be enough silkworms to eat." Qiuyue thinks that the silk cloth shop is expensive. , Do you want to raise more, anyway, silkworm eggs are ready-made, but it takes a little more work, going to the fields and ridges to run a few more times.

Mrs. Han hesitated for a while, and said in a condescending way: "It's a lot of money to raise more, but our family doesn't have so much land now?" Originally, the silkworms were raised in a hut from the west wing. come out.Although the silkworms are quite profitable, but the housing is tight right now, and the silkworms are not as good as those chickens and ducks that can be raised in the yard.

Qiulin looked at the silkworm eggs in the silkworm duster, and couldn't help saying: "Yes, our family doesn't have any land right now, but when we earn money and build a new house, won't we have land to raise silkworms? "

"Build... build a new house?" Han stammered, her face changed slightly, obviously she had never thought about it before, so she looked very surprised.

Qiulin nodded without hesitation, "Yes, in the future, the second brother will get married, and the third brother will also get married. The house must be bigger to live in. We are still a little far from the village, and the wasteland here can Use it to build the ridge.” The house must be built, not to mention the dilapidated rooms in the house, and there are other places where the rain leaks when it rains.Aren't they all growing up day by day now, can't they stay in the same room all the time?

After hearing this, Mrs. Han began to think seriously about Qiu Lin's words. Of course, there is a lot of reason in it.She also knew that now that the children were grown up, they couldn't live in the same room as before.Qiuyue is now engaged, and when they get married, she will pick her up from her boudoir.In this way, the matter of building a house is imminent.Mrs. Han weighed it in and said, "But if the family has less than 500 taels of silver, can they start building a house? If so, how many houses will be built?"

The money from selling rouge last time came back to two or three hundred taels, plus saving and saving, the family currently has more than 300 taels of silver.I don't know if the money is enough to build a house?
Qiulin felt that since a house was built, it would definitely not be possible to build this kind of adobe house like before. It would still be made of green bricks, which would be more solid and look better.The money is enough to repair the house, but it is not too much. "Why don't we talk about it later, when the silkworms are finished, the honeysuckle and pinellia in the field will be produced, and it's better to have lotus root. When we sell these, there will definitely be a lot of money. Let's talk about the house then."

Although it is possible to build a house now, it is probably only enough to afford the house.Once a house is built, it will be back to before liberation.Qiulin doesn't like that kind of tight life, and wait until this year's crops are produced, and then talk about the house, then there will be more money in his hands, so don't panic!

Xu Nanshan felt that this was reliable, and quickly nodded in agreement with Qiulin's statement. "That's a good idea, so let's do it this way!" Xu Nanshan didn't like the hard-pressed life either. He was also used to living in poverty. Now his family was full of chickens and ducks, and he raised pigs and grew lotus roots. I don't want to go back to the poor days before.

So the matter of starting a room was booked in this way.

In order to get up early and get into the new house, everyone is full of energy to work, and it seems that they can't run out of energy.

"Heck..." Qiulin took a dustpan and came to the yard to sprinkle food for the chickens.Now those hens, chicks and ducks heard Qiulin's call, and they were no longer busy catching small bugs and dirt in the yard.The hens and chicks ran over gracefully, and the ducks walked a little awkwardly, shaking and quacking.All these poultry surrounded Qiulin without exception, they were asking her for food!
Qiulin sprinkled two handfuls of cornstarch on the ground, happily watching these chickens and ducks eat every grain of cornstarch.These chickens and ducklings have been raised for several months, and they are much bigger than when they were first caught. Now they don't have to deliberately chop up the food for them, but just give them whole ones.After the chickens and ducklings ate the corn that was scattered on the ground, Qiulin clucked them into the cage again.

The manure in the chicken coop had been cleaned up long ago, and it was covered with clean straw.These chickens and ducklings have grown bigger than before, and they are a bit crowded in a cage. It seems that I have to find time to let my father weave another chicken cage.

At this moment, Qiulin took out some earthworms that he specially raised for the chickens to eat, cleaned them and put them in the chicken cages.These chickens and ducks gathered around and pecked at the earthworms to eat.Before that, Qiulin might have thought that earthworms were a little scary.But now she feeds these things with her own hands, scoops up the chickens and eats them with tongs, but she doesn't feel terrible at all.Hey, people change.

Qiu Lin watched the chickens and ducks pecking at the earthworms with relish, with a sweet smile on his lips.There are a lot of chickens and ducks in the house to feed. She thinks that in the not-too-distant future, she will be able to collect eggs and duck eggs every day.

　I recommend Qing Luoluo's "The Emperor", Cang Xun's "Cultivation Girls Want to Turn Over", 36 Hexagrams' "Crossing Guangli 4998", Su Ge's "The Black-bellied Teacher Is the Demon King", all of whom are cultivators of immortality and supernatural powers. In it!
