Chapter 122 123 Water

The old man Hu said to Li Yu: "Miss Li, the big guy knows what to do, you rest at home for two days, and we will pick you up when the water bridge is built."

Seeing that it was getting late, Li Yu said, "Okay, you'd better have someone go to the forest to dig more mulch and spread it on the ground. Those mulch are good things for fertile fields. After the mulch in the ground is spread, put Dig the ground deeply and **** it carefully, then spread a layer of mulch, and when the ground is ready, I will tell you how I compost it."

The old man Hu and the villagers listened carefully and remembered it in their hearts, "We remember, I will ask Hu Gui to send you and Miss Erya back."

"Okay, come to me when you're done driving, remember that the fields must be built, otherwise the water won't hold." Li Yu instructed the old man Hu.

The old man Hu cupped his hands at Li Yu, "Girl, we remember it, please take a trip without even drinking tea."

Li Yu waved his hand and hurriedly got into the car. The villagers of Hujia Village followed the car to the entrance of the village before they stopped.

Hu Gui insisted on sending Li Yu to the entrance of Fengming Village before turning around and going back, Erya looked at Li Yu, "Girl, I walked around in their village, they are really poor! They are poorer than before my family fled. ."

Li Yu pondered for a moment after listening, "Let's see if they can open the terraced fields down to earth this time."

It was the end of the month, and all the rice in the fields of Fengming Village had been collected into the granary, and the terraced fields of Hujia Village had also opened up two hills.

Old man Hu led people to the forest to cut down more than a dozen big trees, and asked the villagers to cut out the middle of the big trees and carry them to the front of the cave. After everything was ready, he went to Fengming Village to ask Li Yu to help.

Li Yu arrived at Hujia Village and the villagers went to the cave with the dark ditch. He stood at the entrance of the cave and looked at the opposite hill. After seeing the position, he took out a charcoal pen and drew a line from the entrance to the dark ditch. Said: "You have people digging from the hole to the edge of the dark ditch, and dig a ditch as big as this tree trunk. Then use a wooden stick to stare at a dozen shelves to erect the hollowed-out tree trunk and connect it all the way to the opposite side. Just by the pond on the top of the mountain.”

The old man Hu pointed at the young man at the entrance of the cave and said, "Miss Li, to tell you the truth, this child also thought of this way, I thought you had another way."

Li Yu glanced at the young man and praised: "He is very smart. You should also listen to everyone's opinions. What I said is not necessarily correct. Let's dig it! Try to scatter this season's winter wheat."

The old man Hu happily shouted to the villagers, "Hurry up, big guy, it's up to everyone whether you can eat white flour steamed buns next year."

"Okay, here comes the steamed buns with white flour." A few men chiseled in the hole with chisels, and the others rushed to nail the wooden frame.

Li Yu went down the mountain and turned to the terraced fields, looked up at the terraced fields that were like a ladder, grabbed a handful of soil and looked at it, and saw that the soil was sprinkled with mulch according to what she said, and she was satisfied. Head, "Old man, have you dig a few deep pits in the shady corners, cut off the leaves, soil and weeds and pour them into the pits, and then pour the grass ash and dung water into it, layer by layer of mud and grass. Add a layer of manure water to the leaves, and after a few days of composting and digging, the crops will not be short of fertilizer."

The old man Hu suddenly realized, "So those pits in your field are used for composting?"

Li Yu nodded, and the old man Hu smiled embarrassedly, "I saw those small sheds in the field corner of your village that day, and I thought they were raising something, but when I got closer, I saw some dirt pits, and I thought they were What is it for!"

"I understand now!" Li Yu said to him with a smile. The old man Hu nodded, "Thank you, Miss Li."

Li Yu stayed in Hujia Village for more than an hour. Seeing that they could do it themselves, he drove the mule cart back home. As soon as they got home, Chen Yaohui and a few villagers came over. It turned out that a grain merchant came to the village to buy grain.

Chen Yaohui asked Li Yu, "Xiaoyu, do you sell so much food or keep it?"

Li Yu glanced at everyone's excitement, "Uncle Yaohui, how much will the grain merchant give us a pound?"

Chen Yaohui smiled and made a gesture, "Liuwen a pound, what do you think, do you sell it?"

Li Yu shook his head and said, "I'm going to let it go for a few days. Last time I heard that the drought in Qingzhou has not eased, who knows if the weather will be good next year."

Chen Zhong laughed after hearing this, "Xiaoyu, you are worrying too much. Next year's grains will be sold at this price. Besides, your family's grains won't last for ten years."

Li Yu smiled, "Uncle Zhong, I still have such a big family! I think it's not too late to plant rice and sell it in the next year."

Chen Yaohui saw that Li Yu did not intend to sell, nor did he intend to sell it, "I will also say slowly, grain is our lifeblood, and everyone will go back to prepare the land to plant winter wheat."

When the grain merchant arrived in the village, he only collected a few households and found that no one came to sell the grain. He asked Granny Chen, who was passing by, strangely, "Old man, why don't you sell so much grain? If you keep it until next year, it will become old grain, Chen Liang. The price is much cheaper, and don't you sell the ones that will grow bugs?"

Grandma Chen glanced at him, and said with a pouted mouth: "You don't have to worry about eating radishes. You are not afraid of worms when you spend money to receive food. What am I afraid of?"

"Old man, I also kindly ask, why are you so angry?" The grain merchant looked at her and smiled.

Grandma Chen rolled her eyes at him and left in a mutter, "I'm too lazy to grind my teeth with you, my old man is busy!"

On the fourth day of September, the old man in Hujia Village brought Hu Gui to the door of Li Yu's house. When Li Yu came back from exercising, he saw two people standing at the door from a distance. He thought something was wrong. , asked the old man Hu strangely, "Old man, is the water connected?"

"It's connected, and the water will start to flow today. We want to invite you to take a look and be happy."

Li Yu was happy for the old man Hu when he saw that his mouth was so happy that he couldn't close his mouth. "You guys come in and sit down for a while and have a drink. I'll take a shower and go with you."

The old man Hu kept shaking his head, "No, no, we'll be waiting for you at the door."

Li Yu saw that the two of them were reluctant to enter the house, so he quickly packed up and went to Hujia Village with the two of them after dinner.

The men, women and children of Hujia Village waited at the entrance of the village, waiting for Li Yu and Old Man Hu before they went up the mountain together.

Li Yu stood on the mountain, and saw that the trunk was like a long dragon, and it had reached the opposite cave, and the pond on the mountain was dug.

Li Yu followed Old Man Hu to the opposite cave and saw water flowing out of the cave, rushing down. He followed Old Man Hu into the cave and saw the hollowed-out tree trunk laying aside, Old Man Hu bowed to Li Yu and saluted Said: "Miss Li, please put the trunk in the trench."

After Li Yu bowed and returned the salute, he lifted the tree trunk and put it down gently, watching the water flow into the hollowed out tree trunk and slowly towards the opposite hill, Li Yu saw the eyes of the old man Hu and the villagers flickering. She moved with tears of excitement and moved her eyes to red.

After a while, the people on the opposite hill waved their arms at the old man Hu and shouted loudly, "The water is coming, the water is flowing."
