Chapter 87 Decision
After all, this meal was not so happy. Yan's father, Gu, has never been a talkative person, and he didn't do much. In addition, he said something before, which made Yan Ershu not very happy, and he was uncharacteristically unhappy. Don't talk much.

Fang also felt uncomfortable, so she decided not to be like this in the future. She was happy and went to any son's house to eat, but she really didn't like her second son going out to do business. That's how Grandpa Yan disappeared on the way. It is a shadow in her heart.

However, Second Uncle Yan was obviously dazzled by the big cake that was depicted, and couldn't listen to anything else. He just hoped not to cause too much trouble.

Fifteen years have passed, and the taste of the new year has almost dissipated. At this time, everyone carried their hoes to the field to check the situation. After resting the fields for the winter, it was time to start work.

Gu Qingya and Gu Shi went to the field with hoes on their shoulders, intending to clear the weeds on the back of the terraced fields and build waterways along the way.No one in the paddy field can carry water all the time, so several families will work together to repair a waterway to supply water to the paddy fields. The mother and daughter have done this a few times, and they are still very experienced.

The waterway is divided into sections. The section to be repaired at home has been determined in advance, so there is no need to work together. After all, everyone's time schedule is different, and men and women are different, so always avoid suspicion.

The waterway ditch in this section of Yan’s house was full of mud, causing the bottom of the ditch to become shallow, and many openings were dug. Gu Qingya walked back and forth along the waterway to make sure that the other houses have been repaired, and she doesn’t know when Got it, this speed is really fast enough.

If others are fast, you can't be slow, or if the water cannot pass after the gate is opened at the head of the waterway, other families should complain.

"Qingya, go and block those openings, be careful, don't let the hoe hurt your feet." Gu Shi confessed, jumped into the ditch, picked up the hoe and started digging, the soil dug out Just fill in both sides, make the dam solid, and build it into a square, easy to walk on.

"Mother, don't worry, it's not the first time I've done it." Gu Qingya said, grabbed the hoe and started to work, but the speed is not as fast as Gu's, especially when the bottom of the ditch is still wet, which requires more strength .

It took the mother and daughter a morning to repair the waterway, and after a day or two in the sun, the water can be released.

It took several days, and the mother and daughter finally repaired the waterways in various places. This year, the land leased is less than last year, and there are two more acres of mountain land, which were bought at the end of last year.

Gu Qingya was surprised, she didn't expect her parents to buy the land without making a fuss, it's a pity that it wasn't paddy fields, but paddy fields are so expensive and mountainous land is cheap, although it is relatively barren, it will be good to raise it for a few years.

Father Yan has been busy repairing silkworm tools in the past few days, and he has been walking around the county with others, leaving early and returning late every day, just to earn a little more money, and it has been going on for many years.

Spend money to hire someone to plow the land. Gu Shi and Gu Qingya are working one after another. During the period, the Liu family wants to come to help, but the Gu family refuses. This year, the Liu family has rented more land. How can they be busy have to come.

Fortunately, Yan's father didn't go out for a long time. With his participation, the work in the field went faster.It's just spring, and the rainfall can be seen to be less than in previous years. Experienced people have already begun to re-plan this year's planting plan.

Liu's father and Liu's mother also came here to discuss with Yan's father, the Gu family. After all, they have a lot of land and no longer grow rice, but what kind of crops to grow requires careful planning to maximize benefits.

On the two acres of newly purchased land, Yan’s father decided to plant all soybeans and peanuts among them, and after harvesting, he would directly plant sweet potatoes, so he also suggested to Liu’s father, “Soybeans may not be as good-looking as those grown in our place. , but it is always easy to sell.”

Father Liu's brows were still frowning. He rented more land this year. Apart from fearing that the rent would increase, he also had the idea of ​​making a fortune. If he planted ordinary things, he always felt that he would not meet his expectations.

"Good brother, help me think again, what else can be sold for a price besides soybeans?" Father Liu thought about it for a few nights, and his eyes were black and blue.

Father Yan really can't figure it out, the farthest place he has been to is Sanhua County, and he has never been there, so he really has no idea, so he looked at Gu Shi, and at the same time looked at the silent Fang Shi.

"Auntie Yan, you have a good idea. I really don't have any ideas. I'm a little unwilling." Seeing the eyes of Yan's father and his wife, Liu's father asked anxiously.

Fang frowned slightly, "There is little rain this year, and you still have to rent more land. Even if there are profitable crops, you can't do anything."

Yan's father bent his back all of a sudden, obviously this time he was too impulsive, "Then what should we do?"

"Drought this year does not mean drought next year. If you don't want to plant peanuts and soybeans, I think you can consider planting sugar cane, but there is only one season, so you should consider it."

"What?" Before Liu's father and Liu mother could speak, Yan's father said in surprise, "Mother, sugarcane is not easy to handle."

"Sugar cane likes to be moist, but it needs less water than rice, but it also requires a lot of investment. It is indeed not suitable for your family." Fang sighed, and she didn't have too many ideas.

Gu Qingya was listening on the side, and couldn't help but say: "I think if Uncle Liu is unsure, why don't you go to the county town and the grain station in Tianxiang County to compare, maybe you will have an idea."

Fang tilted her head, as if she was listening carefully to what Gu Qingya said, with no anger on her face, "Qingya's idea is good, Liu Da, why don't you go and have a look?"

Father Yan's eyes lit up, he looked at Father Liu and said, "This idea is good, how about it, would you like to go and have a look together?"

"Okay, I think Qingya has an idea, why don't you go for a walk with me?" Liu's father thinks that Gu Qingya has an idea at a young age, and he doesn't know how the Yan family raised her of.

Yan's father, Gu Shi, didn't speak, waiting for Fang Shi to make a decision.

"Let Bingbing go together, the two girls have a good companion." Fang didn't have much opinion, although he was not from the Yan family's blood, but his character was really good, after ten years old, he could go out properly Meet the world.

Gu Qingya was overjoyed, she stood up first, and thanked Fang excitedly: "Thank you grandma, you are so kind."

Fang smiled, Yan's father may have an inferiority complex, even though he often goes out to look for work every spring, he still sees too little of the world, it's better to go out more.

Fang seemed to be getting better at talking, Gu Qingya tilted her head, and didn't think deeply, no matter what changed her mind, it was always a good thing for her family.

At night, Gu Qingya, who fell asleep with a mood of anticipation, entered the library again, and this time she was surprised that there was a bookshelf with three floors, about one or three hundred books Left and right, and the books she had read before were inserted in the three-tier bookshelf one by one.
