Chapter 10 Farming in Spring

With many people and strong strength, it took a month for the new house to be completed.The fish pond that Mu Qiu wanted was dug in three or four days.

It has always been a custom to hold a housewarming banquet after the completion of a new residence.Mu Qiu borrowed Tianxiangju's carriage for a while, and bought all the things for the banquet in one go.

The people in the village saw Mu Qiu come back with a cart full of things, and they all said that Li Xianrou was a great daughter, and she was good at making money at a young age, and anyone who married her would marry a God of Wealth.Those with sons in the family plan to invite a matchmaker to come to talk about their marriage at some time, while those without sons can only look forward to it, and inevitably have a few bitter words.

I asked someone to calculate a good day, and notified the neighbors, and the housewarming banquet was about to start.People in the village will also find time to help.

The noodles are very good, and there are all kinds of chicken, duck and fish.In fact, Mu Qiu caught all the fish and shrimp from the space, and the vegetables were also picked from the space. The chicken was bought in the village, and only the pork cost some money.With the blessing of space seasoning, the taste of these dishes is definitely comparable to that of a big restaurant.

Since they are here for a banquet, everyone will not come empty-handed, and will give something according to their own conditions.It may be a piece of coarse cloth, or some eggs, and the gift from a good family is not bad.Of course, there are also some shameless, that is, a basket of vegetables.But who gave what was recorded by a special person, and Mu Qiu knew it well.

Shopkeeper Wu's Tianxiangju has a lot of things to do, so he couldn't spare himself to attend in person, so he also arranged for the staff to bring gifts.The people in the village must be jealous seeing the bags of things being delivered in, and some people with bad intentions made crooked ideas.

The housewarming banquet is over, and the matter about the house has also come to an end.Mu Qiu finally has his own room, so it will be much more convenient to enter and exit the space in the future.But before the family can take a good rest, the busy spring plowing begins!

A two-acre pond was dug on the eight acres of land at home, and the remaining six acres were all dry land.Their family didn't eat much, so Mu Qiu didn't plan to grow food. What she needed was a perfect excuse to take out the items in the space.

Mrs. Li doesn't know how to farm at all, so the arrangement of those fields is up to Mu Qiu. Now she is completely relieved to let Mu Qiu make his own decision.With six acres of land, Mu Qiu temporarily plans to use three acres to grow vegetables, two acres to grow various seasonings, and the remaining one to grow fruits.The quantity does not need to be too much, just plant a few of each.

The plan has already been made, but it is very difficult to formally implement it.The six acres of land had to be planted by themselves, and it was estimated that they would not be able to plant them all by the end of this spring.Mu Qiu had no choice but to ask someone in the village for help.After all, they depended on the land for food, and Mu Qiu paid back their wages, so everyone was willing to work hard.

Mu Qiu took out the seeds he had bought before and planted them in the ground according to the plan.In order to increase the survival rate, she secretly mixed space water into the water for watering the ground.The water in the pond is drawn from the river, and she also specially designed and dug the water outlet, so as to ensure that the water in the pond is running water.

Before the water was diverted, Mu Qiu bought lotus roots and planted them in the pond, not for eating but for looking good!

In three days, all the plants that need to be planted have been planted. Looking at the land in front of him, Mu Qiu can already imagine the scene full of vitality in the near future.

It's time to make plans for Mu Wen to go to the town to study, and Mu Qiu asks shopkeeper Wu to help inquire about the situation.It turned out that there was only one private school in Pingyang Town, and the children of ordinary families in the town were all studying in this private school. Naturally, rich families invited their teachers to come to teach.

The teachers in the private school are all elderly gentlemen, in Mu Qiu's opinion, they are a bit rigid, and she doesn't want her brother to become a nerd who only knows what to do.In the end, she decided to find a husband to tutor alone.After selection, Mu Qiu locked on a scholar named Du Yuan in the town.

Du Yuan is 14 years old. He was admitted as a scholar in August last year. Although he is not a genius, he is upright and not pedantic, and he is calm when encountering problems.This is the most suitable candidate for Mr. Mu Qiu.
