A leisurely life with Lingquan

Chapter 254
After discussing with Zhao Mu, Li Xi decided to hire a few more people after the plan is made next year. In fact, the work in her family is not tiring, but it is cumbersome, and one or two people will always be too busy.

In the wasteland under Xiaoqingshan, except for two acres and three acres of crops, the rest are planted with grass. Now that the chickens and ducks have grown up, they eat a lot of food every day. Of course, bran must be added to this. Enough to eat, Zhao Mu and Li Xi discussed that next year they will have to open up a few acres to keep up, especially the pastures in Li Xi that have been irrigated with spiritual spring water grow lush and have fat and juicy leaves, and after cutting, water them and grow quickly. Chickens and ducks grow more juicy after eating them, so they need to be more varied.

And I also said that after harvesting all the crops in the wasteland next year, we will not grow food. After the wasteland is opened up, we will divide vegetables and pastures. Vegetables are mainly used for pickles. The people under her hand use the vegetables grown in her family to marinate and the taste is always bad. After all, she really puts spiritual spring water. After eating it, it not only tastes good, but it is also good for the body. Of course, there should be few people on this point. Perception is.

In my free time, I looked at the wheat and rapeseed in the field. They are all growing well. The sweet potatoes in the wasteland behind are also very good. It happened that I was not busy these days and harvested them. The field was replanted with pasture and watered with spring water. , presumably will soon be able to germinate.

When the first snow came, it was quite sudden.

Li Xi was dressed like a bear and pushed open the door, looking outside the door covered in silver all night, she was also in a good mood, but looked at the row of footprints at the door and frowned, Zhao Mu went out early in the morning and hasn't come back yet Woolen cloth.

It snowed in the middle of the night last night, Zhao Mu was worried about the shed, so he got up overnight and ran to reinforce it. When he came up, his body was cold, which made Li Xi feel distressed for a while, and he ran again this morning when she was still awake out.

"Why are you standing outside the door, go in quickly, don't freeze."

Just as he was thinking about it, the courtyard door was pushed open, Zhao Mu came in shaking the snow, and saw Li Xi waiting for him at a glance.

"Where have you been?" Li Xi wanted to go up to help him, but was stopped before he stepped out.

"I'm here, don't walk around, be careful that your shoes get wet, and the cold will come up, I'll shovel the snow after breakfast." Zhao Mu walked over quickly in two or three steps, and entered the house with his arms in his arms.

Li Xi poured him a cup of hot water, helped him take off the coir raincoat and put it under the eaves, and then patted the snow on his body with a cloth towel.

It was good after working for a while, and it wasn't too cold for Zhao Mu to sit down.

"I went to have a look at a few greenhouses, all of which are in good condition, and I also removed the snow on them so as not to be crushed." After drinking a saliva, he said again: "I went to look at the fields again, wheat and rapeseed It’s all good, the auspicious snow promises a good harvest next year.”

Seeing him busy like this, Li Xi also felt distressed, so he blamed: "It's just a snow, don't do everything, okay, it's such a cold day."

Zhao Mu knew that she was concerned about himself and did not refute: "I see that there are still a lot of pickled vegetables in the shed in the cellar. After Huaisong is taken away soon, there is no need to work on it this winter. Let's wait until the beginning of spring." , other salted eggs can be marinated more."

Li Xi also knew: "I think so too."

After breakfast, Zhao Mu shoveled the snow in the yard. He didn't have a job today, so he was busy at home.

Farmers start to be free in winter, and those who are able to work still have corn and cotton to enrich themselves throughout the winter. Li Xi has peanuts here, and she plans to peel peanuts when she has nothing to do.
