"You just have to prepare the vegetables and food when the time comes," Fang Nuo said.
"Hmm, I'll ask an aunt to help me then, and you can just help and watch." Shen Gongqi still didn't want her to be too tired, and finally thought of asking an aunt to help with the cooking, and she would just watch from the side.
When you pay her, you must first set aside the money for building a house and hiring people, and leave the rest to her.
After Yaya finished eating, Shen Gongqi packed her things in the basket, and Fang Nuo took Yaya back home.
If you can't finish the things, you put them in the ground and take them back when Shen Gong's banner is at work.
Fang Nuo just came home. After putting Yaya to sleep for a while, he welcomed Aunt Dahua.
Fang Nuo saw Aunt Dahua at the entrance of the courtyard and greeted, "Auntie is here, come in and sit down."
Aunt Dahua came in and saw her picking wild vegetables at the door of the kitchen. She sat down opposite her and said, "Did you get all this this morning?"
"Yeah, I was lucky today. Everything I encountered in the mountains was in pieces. I got a lot of them in the morning. I thought I couldn't eat them, so I boiled them and dried them into dried vegetables." Fang Nuo said
"I heard today that you and the boy from the Shen family are dating. Is this true?" Aunt Dahua asked first.
"Auntie, I've heard about it. It's true. We just decided on our date yesterday," Fang Nuo said, looking up in surprise.
"It's really true. You two have never interacted with each other. Why are you suddenly together?" Auntie Dahua was very curious.
"Actually, the two of us have some intersection. That is to say, we live in a relatively remote place and we don't usually meet many people.
Not long after Comrade Shen came back, he would come to my place from time to time to change dishes, and would also ask me to help make something. Gradually, the two of us became familiar with each other," Fang Nuo said.
"That's it, then you two have thought it over carefully. You are going to get married in the future." Aunt Dahua actually wanted to say that she was afraid that the other party just wanted to have fun. Then her life would be even more difficult. Not only would she find another It's hard, she was drowned by the gossip in the village.
"Auntie, don't worry. The two of us decided to be together after careful consideration, and we are definitely going to get married. Don't you know, Yaya likes him very much, and I can see how they get along. I think he will definitely be a good father in the future," Fang Nuo said.
She knew what Aunt Dahua was worried about, but she still believed in her own vision.
"You can figure it out yourself. When are you two planning to get married?" Aunt Dahua asked.
"There's no rush. We'll consider marriage after he builds a house first. It's also during this time that the two of us can get along well. If there's anything inappropriate, we can make it clear in time," Fang Nuo said.
"He still wants to build a house. If you ask me, just move to your small courtyard and you can live there. Why spend more money?" Aunt Dahua said in confusion.
"There are only two rooms in my small yard. When Yaya grows up, he won't be able to live with us together. So the two of us discussed it to see if we could grant him a homestead. The house next door to mine will be built closer. After we get married, the middle wall will be removed and the two yards will be merged into one," Fang Nuo said.
"What you said makes sense. Since you two have plans, Auntie won't say much. When you are about to get married, tell Auntie and I will be your go-between," said Auntie Dahua.
"Aunt I know, I told Comrade Shen the same thing. I said that when I get married in the future, I will definitely ask you to be the go-between," Fang Nuo said with a smile.
The two of them picked up wild vegetables while talking, and they picked them all out in a short time.
Aunt Dahua saw that she had been here for more than an hour and had asked everything clearly. She felt relieved knowing that what they said was true and that both of them had their own ideas.
After helping Fang Nuo pick up the wild vegetables, she stood up and said, "Then I'll go back first, and you have to do the rest by yourself."
"Auntie, please sit down for a while. Now you can help me with the work. I haven't poured you a glass of sugar water yet. You sit down for a while, drink the water and then go back." Fang Nuo stood up and tried to persuade her.
"No, I have to go back and take a look. The vegetables in the backyard of my house haven't been planted yet. I have to go back and clean them up," Aunt Dahua said.
"That's it. Auntie, do you still want vegetable seedlings? I have raised some melon seedlings this year. Auntie, you can take some back to the planting field, get some farmyard manure and water it, and in more than a month you will have melons to eat." Fang Nuo said
"How many do you have?" Aunt Dahua asked
"Yes, didn't I tell you last year? I will raise more seedlings this year. When you want to plant them, come and get them," Fang Nuo said.
Then he took a dustpan and took Aunt Dahua to the backyard.
She has indeed raised a lot more seedlings this year than last year, and there is still a small half left to plant, all of which are in the nursery shed.
In the current weather, it is too hot during the day, and she is afraid that the seedlings will simmer to death, so she will uncover the shed cloth during the day and cover it back up at night.
"You've already planted all the vegetables in your backyard, why don't you act quickly?" Aunt Dahua said when she saw that her field was full of vegetables.
"I also have a lot of time at home. Seeing that the seedlings have grown, I thought it would be better to plant them as soon as possible." Fang Nuo said with a smile.
"It's true. Look at the seedlings you planted. They are now feeling better." Aunt Dahua looked at the seedlings she planted in the field. They had already stood up and she was sure they were all alive.
While raising seedlings for her, Fang Nuo said, "I buried fertilizer down here. Auntie, if you think the farmyard fertilizer has a strong smell and is difficult to spread, just do the same as me. Lay the ridges first and then dig them out." In the pit for planting seedlings, throw the farmyard manure at the bottom of the pit, cover it with a little soil, and then plant the seedlings, so that the taste will be lighter."
"Would this be too much trouble? We don't have that many generals in the countryside, but I think my boss will bring his wife back soon. I'm afraid she won't be used to the city's people. I'll do what you say when I get back. You can plant it in one year," said Aunt Dahua.
"Well, this is indeed a bit more troublesome, but it looks clean," Fang Nuo said.
After a while, Fang Nuo gave Aunt Dahua seven or eight of the remaining seedlings, filling a handful full of them.
Aunt Dahua thanked her and carried her back.
Fang Nuo looked at the few seedlings left and thought that when Shen Gongqi's house was built, a piece of land would be opened in the yard to grow vegetables. By then, it would be too late to plant rapeseeds.
So she planned to wait until tomorrow to raise some seedlings. When the house over there was built and the yard was cleared, she would pick up the seedlings and plant them.
She returned to the front yard, went into the kitchen to boil water and blanch wild vegetables, then washed them and dried them.
Over at Shen Gongqi, he worked in the fields for another two hours. After finishing the work assigned today, he collected the things that Fang Nuo had brought in the morning and took the lead to the captain's house.
