Chapter 265 Are you an immortal?
As Li Lei walked to the water tank next to him, he said, "I'll take you to see it later, and you'll know."
He scooped water from the water tank and carefully washed the strawberries on his hands.
There are three in total, which is good.
Li Lei took the most popular one and handed it to Ji Yuanyuan: "Yuanyuan, eat strawberries!"
Ji Yuanyuan looked at the three miserable strawberries in Li Lei's hand, hesitated for a moment, then shook his head and said, "Uncle, I won't eat it, give it to auntie!"
Li Lei was also obedient, and immediately handed it to Meng Xiaoning.
Meng Xiaoning blushed a little when he saw this.
It's like she's grabbing something to eat with the kids.
"Auntie won't eat it, you should eat it!" Meng Xiaoning declined.
Upon seeing this, Li Lei said: "Okay, don't refuse, there are three in total here, one for each of you three."
He divided the strawberries, and the one in Ji Yuanyuan's hand was still the biggest and reddest one.
There are two smaller ones, Ji Ziang and Meng Xiaoning each.
Ji Yuanyuan is quite sweet, but Ji Ziang took a bite but spit it out all of a sudden: "Oh, this is too sour, bah bah bah..."
On the other hand, Meng Xiaoning looked surprised: "It's not sour, it's delicious."
Liu Guihua came over from behind and saw this scene, her mouth crooked when she smiled.
"Sour son and spicy girl, most sons like to eat sour!" She said with a smile.
Meng Xiaoning touched his stomach, and the smile on his face became a little reluctant.
Seeing this, Li Xu hurriedly said: "It's all superstition. Besides, boys and girls are the same, and now we pay attention to equality between men and women!"
Liu Guihua also realized that she had said the wrong thing, and quickly said: "Yes, it's all superstition, and the girl is also very good."
Li Xu naturally knew that people of her mother's generation were somewhat patriarchal.
Not to mention her mother, among her peers, there are also some patriarchs.
Now that family planning is so tight, some people hide from XZ in order to have a son.
It's true that she wants a grandson, but if she really has a granddaughter, her parents will definitely still be in pain.
Fortunately, Meng Xiaoning is not a person with a small stomach and chicken intestines, and soon became happy again: "Sister, there are some spare ribs at home, how about we eat braised spare ribs at noon?"
This topic just came to an end.
Li Lei soon took Ji Ziang and Ji Yuanyuan to see strawberries. Li Xu put on gloves and followed Liu Guihua into the ground.
It is now June, the weather is getting hot, and the film on the greenhouse has been removed.
"This crop of peppers is not very good. There has been too much rain recently, and it has not grown up." Liu Guihua said helplessly.
Peppers are inherently drought tolerant and do not need to be watered too much. This year, it has been raining continuously since February, and this crop of peppers has grown by two-thirds of its previous size.
Li Xu sighed: "I came back today to tell you about this."
Liu Guihua was a little strange: "What's the matter?"
"When everyone is here, let's talk at the dinner table!" Li Xu whispered.
After staying in the field until eleven o'clock, the family went back.
Lunch is served by Li Yong, braised pork ribs, garlic eggplant, fish-flavored shredded pork...
A gas stove, two stoves, and a large pot were installed at home, which gave Li Yong room to play fully.
During the meal, Li Xu brought up this topic again: "I am afraid that the rainy season will not stop this year. It is better not to invest too much capital in our greenhouse, otherwise, it is possible to lose money!"
Some vegetables are not resistant to waterlogging, and the roots will rot when they are soaked in too much water. As soon as this seedling dies, the fertilizer and seed money invested in it will be wasted.
However, Li Yong felt that Li Xu's words were a bit alarmist: "It's okay, our greenhouse is relatively high. It's okay if there is a lot of rain. When the time comes, a drainage ditch will be dug next to it, and it will flow down the terrain. In one, wait here. After harvesting a crop of peppers and spinach, plant some vegetables that are resistant to waterlogging, such as celery, cucumbers, tomatoes, etc. You can’t leave the land empty, it’s 10,000 yuan less for this month!”
Li Lei also felt that Li Yong's words made sense: "Yes, sister, even if there is a lot of water in the rainy season, the harvest is almost at most, and if you plant some, you can make some money, which is better than empty land!"
"I'm your sister, can I still harm you? If you don't believe it, just plant it and see, don't put too much fertilizer."
The cost of planting this greenhouse, in addition to the greenhouse itself, is the most expensive fertilizer.
As long as you don't put too much fertilizer, the only thing you lose in the end is seed money and labor.
Vegetable seeds are cheap!
The atmosphere at the dinner table suddenly cooled down, and for the first time, the three sisters and brothers had differences of opinion.
Liu Guihua and Li Zhiming were silent beside them, and they didn't know who to support for a while.
"Li Lei, our elder sister is right. She is your elder sister, so can she harm you? I see that this year's weather is not quite right. Let's listen to my elder sister and put in less money. Wait for the rainy season to pass. It will be fine, at most three months." Seeing this, Meng Xiaoning had to persuade Li Lei in a low voice.
Meng Xiaoning still admires Li Xu, the eldest sister. I heard that the big shed at home was organized by the eldest sister.
If it weren't for the eldest sister, how could their family live a good life now?
Li Lei was a little shaken by what Meng Xiaoning said.
But Li Yong was anxious, "Three months, how much money do you have to make? Big sister, you are not a fairy, how do you know that you will lose money this year?"
Li Xu sighed deeply, knowing that Li Yong was anxious.
Three months, for Li Yong, it may be 10,000 yuan.
However, she also believed in her daughter.
"I'm not an immortal, but this year's abnormal weather is obvious to all. If you don't believe in evil, you can try it." Li Xu whispered.
If these 20 acres of land are taken care of as usual, it will only cost one or two thousand yuan.
This two thousand dollars, although it hurts to lose, but it is not enough to go bankrupt.
Their family's wealth is quite rich now During this time, the family also made a lot of money.
Although Li Xu didn't know the exact number, she knew it. The two younger brothers and the money in their parents' hands add up to almost 40,000 to 50,000 yuan.
Liu Guihua quickly recovered, she pulled Li Yong and said, "Xiao Xu, we all listen to you."
Li Yong lowered his head and said nothing.
Li Xu sighed and said again: "As for the villagers, you don't have to ask them specifically, they will be muttering in their hearts. But if they want to ask, don't hide it."
The few families in the village who built greenhouses were not very wealthy.
The money to build the greenhouse may be all the net worth.
If you really put all the money into it later, it will really be lost!
Liu Guihua responded quickly: "Hey, I know, we all know..."
