Chapter 134： mutual aid

Liu Ting couldn't help but smile when he heard this. He handed the plow to his cousin Liu Yuan and said, "I'll go over and help."

Liu Daqian frowned slightly, but Liu Erqian had already waved: "Go, go."

Liu Ting walked over and took the iron plow from Liu Ma's hand and said, "I'll come, you go to plant the seeds."

Liu Ma rubbed his hands awkwardly and looked at Mu Yangling, who had already smiled and said, "Aunt Biao, let's go and plant the seeds, and let my uncle Ting Biao come."

Only then did Mrs Liu Ma put her hands behind her to plant the seeds. Originally, Mu Yangling could not come, so she could only use a **** to slowly drive and plant the seeds. With Mu Yangling pulling the plow, the speed increased more than three times, and now there is Liu Ma. Ting help, it will be faster.

Mu Yangling walked unhurriedly with the iron plow in front, while Liu Ting spoke to her while supporting the plow, "Have you finished planting your land?"

"No, there are still four acres."

Liu Ting's eyes widened in surprise, "There are only four acres left in one hundred and eighty acres? Your family's movements are quite fast."

Mu Yangling smiled shyly, "Uncle Ting Biao, my family only grows high-grade and medium-grade land, but not low-grade land."

Liu Ting thought about the proportions of the three types of land, nodded and said, "That's not bad. As long as the crops are well planted, and if God is good at it, there should be a bumper harvest in autumn."

Mu Yangling smiled, knowing that Liu Ting had misunderstood, and whispered: "My family has 97 acres of inferior land."

"..." Liu Ting said with a black face: "You only plant 83 acres?"

Mu Yangling nodded.

"This is too wasteful. It's still early. You have more variety, but it's not that you don't have any seeds." Liu Ting felt distressed when he thought of how much land was deserted.

Mu Yangling hesitated for a while, then nodded and said, "Okay, I'll take a look back, if we have enough time, we will try to make more."

Liu Ting thought that only Mu Yangling and his aunt could work in the Mu family, so he sighed and stopped talking.

The two were silent, and the work was even faster. In half a morning, Liu Ma, who was planted at the back, was thrown all the way.

Mu Yangling wasn't tired yet, but Liu Ting's hand, who was holding the plow, was already a little weak. Mu Yangling stopped and waved to Liu Ting: "Uncle Ting, let's rest."

Liu Ting let go of the iron plow and nodded in response.

Mu Yangling turned to look at the ravines that had been opened, and compared with his fingers, he found that the gully opened by Liu Ting was a little bigger than the one his aunt taught her to open.

When Liu Ting saw her gesture, he came over, squatted beside her and said, "The line is bigger, the wheat grows stronger, and the ears are longer." Liu Ting scratched the soil on the ground and said in a low voice, "This is I have been planting the land for more than ten years, but unfortunately, except for your uncle Zhuang Biao and Xuan Biao, your uncle also doesn't believe me, and now they don't ask me to open a business."

Mu Yangling said in amazement: "Isn't it obvious that it only takes a year to plant it?"

Liu Ting smiled wryly, "It's feasible to open it up, and there will be fewer wheat seeds. Who knows if the wheat that is harvested most of the time is enough to reduce the harvest?"

Mu Yangling fell silent, and said after a while: "It's not difficult, one way of planting for a year will make the harvest less good?"

Liu Ting rubbed her head amusingly and said, "How can it be that simple, the climate is different from year to year, and the cost of income is not stable, how can we compare?"

"Then cousin, why don't you choose a piece of land and divide it into two equal parts, one side is planted in one way, the same climate, the same fertility, the same fertilization and weeding, don't you know which way is better when you harvest it in autumn?"

Liu Ting pondered, his eyes gradually became brighter, and he lowered his voice and said excitedly: "This is a good way, I will tell your uncle when I look back, in fact, I have secretly tried it with your uncle Xuan Biao before, I always think it is I get more out of this method..."

Mu Yangling smiled, "Then uncle Biao, try it, and let me know when there is a result. I will do the same next year."

Liu Ting nodded.

Mu Yangling saw that Liu Daqian and the others were Liu Yuan's stop-and-go pulling plow, while Liu Erqian helped the plow. Liu Daqian and his cousins ​​planted the seeds together, because the manpower pulling the plow had to rest from time to time, and the driving was not easy. Not enough, Liu Zhang and the others would sometimes go up to replace Liu Yuan.

Mu Yangling threw away the soil in his hand and ran over, took the rope on Liu Yuan's shoulder, and said, "I'll come, Uncle Yuan, take a rest."

Liu Yuan grasped the rope tightly, "How can this be done? You've just finished pulling, then take a break."

"Hey, I pull the plow just like putting a rope on my shoulders. I'm not tired. Uncle Yuan, please rest." He raised his voice and said to Mrs. Liu Zhang: "Aunt Cousin, when I came to help my cousin, I'm pulling the plow for your family now, you have to help cousin Li's house sow seeds and replace my cousin cousin Ting."

Liu Zhangshi smiled and said cheerfully: "Okay, I'll go and replace him now, so that he won't be lazy there."

Liu Zhao said with a smile: "A-Ling is slow to sow seeds by herself. I saw that your auntie Ting is fast, so she specially asked her to help my cousin? What kind of ecstasy soup did your cousin give you? Do you love him so much? Tell your aunt, and your aunt will learn to ask you to help my family."

Grandma Liu glared at the second daughter-in-law and said, "If you can't speak, don't say it, no one thinks you are dumb."

When Liu Zhao choked, Liu Yuan's daughter-in-law said, "I also want to learn, A Ling, I will go home with my aunt at lunch later, and my mother and I will love each other."

Mu Yangling agreed, "Okay, as long as my aunt's house prepares food, I have a big appetite, you have to cook a lot of food."

"There is still rice, enough for you to eat."

The atmosphere just got better.

Mu Yangling was tireless in pulling the plow, and the speed was well-proportioned. On the contrary, the people who helped the plow had to keep changing. In this way, after an hour, Mu Yangling threw them all the way, and opened enough ravines for them. Planted in the afternoon.

Mu Yangling threw away the plow and ran back to plant the seeds with Liu Ma.

Mrs. Liu Zhang didn't go back when she saw her coming. The three of them worked in Liu Li's field. When Mu Yangling's work was almost finished, Mu Yangling had to pull two rows of rakes to cover the soil. Liu Ma hurriedly held her back, "Good boy, it's half noon now, let's not cover the soil first, go back to eat first, and then take a rest."

Mu Yangling said with a smile: "Aunt Cousin first finish planting the land that you have planted and then go back, you go back to cook first, I will cover the soil and go back, otherwise the wheat seeds under the sun will dry like this, and the water in the soil will be drenched in the sun. If it’s dried in the sun, it will definitely not germinate.” He lowered his voice and said, “I brought a fish and threw it in the kitchen. My cousin went back to cook first. I’ll be quick, and I’ll be fine soon.”

Liu Ma hesitated and agreed.

The speed of Mu Yangling's planting is not as fast as those of their old farming masters, but the speed of pulling the plow and the harrow is unparalleled, and the planting is very smooth, and there is absolutely no deep or shallow phenomenon. When Liu Ma saw it, he couldn't help but feel envious and jealous, regretting that it would be nice if it was his own daughter or son.
