Fifty Little Blessed Wife

Chapter 98: raising ducks

The summer harvest in Qianwan Village went very smoothly, and everyone was in a good mood. This year's crop harvest was really good. The per-mu yield of rice in the entire village is about 1,000 catties, which is a very exciting harvest joy for the villagers of Qianwan Village.

The high yield of crops means that they will not be hungry this year. After finally going through the war, they are now living well, and finally they don’t have to worry about being burned, killed and looted by the enemy as before, and they are worried that they will not be able to eat enough.

Moreover, the crops in Qianwan Village are not only the high yield of rice, but also corn, sweet potatoes, etc. The yield of these grains is quite high. Although some miscellaneous grains are not ready to be harvested at this time, after all, everyone has been doing farm work for decades, and they have experience and eyes. This year, the sweet potato vines are also growing quite well. Occasionally, when I cut the sweet potato vines to feed the pigs at home, I can also pull out one or two sweet potatoes. They grow very well. Because the sweet potato vines grow well, the pigs at home also grow. Pretty fat.

There are also taro in Qianwan Village, but for them, taro is not actually a staple food, so they do not grow a lot of taro, that is, just like corn, it can fill up the stomach when hungry. Or burn the food for cooking and eating, which is less than one mu or so, but the yield of taro is indeed very high.

The output of taro is also probably more than 1,000 catties per mu. Some taro stems are edible, but some taro stems and taro leaves are used to feed pigs. The pigs at home have eaten both sweet potato vines and taro stems and taro leaves this year, and they grow quite strong.

It is not yet the time for the taro harvest, but it is still quite busy when the farming is busy. Although the rice has been harvested, the work in the fields is still busy. For example, all kinds of grains have begun to mature one after another and need to be collected.

Chen Tiezheng and his family also have to collect the grain. The rice is about to be harvested, but the beans, sweet potatoes, etc. in the dry land, and even taro, can also be harvested. The farming is really busy. Chen Tiezheng and the others didn't finish harvesting the rice, so they didn't do any farm work.

Of course, after being busy for a while, you can relax a little. After all, the next season of rice will take a time or two before breeding. In the spare one or two months, Chen Tiezheng and the others have a lot of ideas. After all, there are several think tanks in their family. wasted.

The cultivation in the vicinity of Qianwan Village is done twice a year. In the middle of each season, the cultivation will be carried out every one or two months. Of course, it will not really take two months. After a month of free time, the seedlings will be raised. , If you are transplanting rice, you really have to wait until the seedlings are full moon before you can transplant them.

It is only the beginning of April in the lunar calendar at this time, and everyone is used to raising the seedlings after the Dragon Boat Festival in the fifth lunar month. When the seedlings are full moon, they can be transplanted.

Nuan Nuan still remembers that in her previous life, every time she planted rice in the summer, the wild fruit on the mountain with the scientific name of myrtle would be ripe and ready to eat.

There are also myrtle on the mountains near Qianwan Village. The mountains near Qianwan Village are not very high. The highest is only two or three hundred meters high. Most of them are small hillsides more than one hundred meters high. Full of wild fruits.

Wild guava, myrtle, raspberries, raspberries, etc., of course, there are figs in the mountains.

It’s too far away, just now they have just finished their busy farming work, Chen Tiezheng and Yu’s both feel that the land at home is a bit wasteful. They still have so many children to support, and they need to send them to school. What if they don’t make good money? Row?

Moreover, the Chen family's children are all capable children, no matter what Chen Tiezheng and Yu think they will cooperate. Of course, it is impossible for the fields to be connected to farming, and it is necessary to allow the land to have time to recuperate and maintain the fertility of the land.

Now that the rice in the field has been harvested, it will take a month to cultivate a small piece of land to raise the seedlings if it is cultivated again. The rest of the land will not be cultivated until the sixth month of the lunar calendar. The time is empty and empty, and it is quite good to use it for other things.

Chen Tiezheng also did not say that he should plant something on the land, such as vegetables or other miscellaneous grains. The growth cycle of these crops and vegetables is longer and may not catch up with the next season of rice cultivation.

That's why Chen Tiezheng decided to raise some chickens, ducks, geese and the like in the fields. At least these poultry are raised. In the future, their family can eat not only eggs but also meat. If they talk too much, they can take them out. Sell.

And if the poultry is convenient in the field, then chicken manure and duck manure will also have the effect of fertilizing the field. Of course, such a thing that kills two birds with one stone must be done well? What's more, they also have a golden doll in their home who can summon animals and manipulate them to make them obey -- what kind of animals can't be raised in the warmth?
