Chapter 15 Fragrance

"Okay, this is what you promised. When your parents don't let me raise her, you have to speak for me." Jiang Nai confirmed.

Jiang Wan nodded, "I'm definitely on grandma's side."

Jiang Nai looked at the chickens running around the yard with a distressed look on her face, "Oh, what can I do with these chickens? They are all good chickens that lay eggs."

Jiang Wan looked at the chickens and smashed them, "Kill them and we will bring them over tomorrow. Later I will build you a big yard to raise chickens."

Not to mention, the free-range chickens raised by her grandma are more delicious than those bought in the city.

When Jiang Wan said this, Jiang Nai felt even more distressed. It was not easy to raise these chickens so strong.

Having made up their minds, they both started working hard in the afternoon. Jiang Wan was responsible for catching the chickens, and Jiang Nai was responsible for wiping the necks of the chickens. In the end, only the old hen with the chicks was left.

Before Jiang Wan could make a move, Jiang Nai hurriedly protected her, "The chick is still young and cannot survive without the old hen. It cannot be killed. I will take this hen and the chick to the city to raise them."

"Okay, it's all up to you." Jiang Wan looked at the chickens lying on the floor, there must be more than ten of them, and said to Jiang Nai, "Grandma, I'll leave the hair removal to you. I have something else to do in the afternoon.

To do.”

With that said, he disappeared with the shovel in the yard.

Jiang Nai looked at Jiang Wan's running back and said with a smile, "Beating hair is a delicate job, so I know this kid is not willing to do it."

Jiang Wan carried a shovel and turned to her second uncle's house.

Wang Ling was about to go out to teach when he saw Jiang Wan coming over and asked, "What are you doing with a shovel?"

"I want to go for a walk in the back mountains, so I can borrow your electric saw." Jiang Wan said with a smile.

After hearing this, Wang Ling went to get it, but did not forget to tell him, "There are many snakes and insects on the mountain, so be careful when you go there."

"It's okay. I used to go up there and play by myself when I was little." Jiang Wan said a few more polite words and walked up the mountain.

There is a very clear spring on the mountain. In the past, people in the village drank water from the spring, which was much sweeter than bottled drinking water.

But later, when every household had a well, no one came to fetch water.

Jiang Wan reached into the spring water and did not stop until the 500 cubic meters of storage space she had pulled out was completely filled.

With this water, plus the 10,000 barrels of drinking water I bought earlier, I don’t need to worry about water problems in the next ten years.

Spring has arrived in March, which is the time when all things revive. Jiang Wan was walking on the mountain and saw the collection names prompted by the system, some of which he didn't recognize.

So she dug up some of the flowers, plants and saplings she saw.

This kind of wildflowers and weeds are not of much value to people, they are usually unavailable, and there are many kinds, so Jiang Wan was able to collect many new specimens on the mountain.

There are also some unique wild strawberries, wild jujubes, wild hawthorns, etc. that are unique to the mountain. They are all the flavors that she often ate when she was a child. She specially dug a few more seedlings to keep them so that they can be planted in the space later.

In addition to these, Jiang Wan also had another important purpose for going up the mountain this time, which was to cut down trees.

When extreme cold weather comes, the power supply will be insufficient due to various reasons, and it will be impossible to turn on the air conditioner for heating all day long.

By that time, burning a fire for warmth became the key, so she needed a lot of trees for firewood.

Originally, these timbers could be bought, but Jiang Wan thought it was quite expensive to buy them. If there were ready-made ones in the back mountains, he might as well cut them himself and save a lot of money.

Ordinarily, the trees on this mountain are not allowed to be cut down at will, but soon everyone will be busy preventing the epidemic, and no one cares who cut down these trees.

When it gets colder, people will cut the mountain bare in order to keep warm, and then no one will care about it.

Jiang Wan held an electric saw. She couldn't cut down trees that were too big, but those with thick mouths could not be cut off one tree at a time. After being cut, they were put directly into the space.

The afternoon was also fruitful.

Five hundred cubic meters were filled with mountain spring water, more than 300 kinds of specimens were collected, and nearly 200 trees were cut down, which can last for a year.

Fortunately, Jiang Wan had been practicing Taekwondo since she was a child, and when she grew up, she also liked outdoor sports, such as climbing snow-capped mountains, otherwise she would be exhausted in just one afternoon.

When I went back in the evening, Wang Ling had already returned from school, and his second uncle who was working outside had also returned.

"Second uncle!" Jiang Wan greeted and returned the chainsaw.

Yang Lixin took the chainsaw and said hello, "When did Xiaowan come back?"

"I came back this morning."

"Xiao Wan, let's stay and have dinner together." Wang Ling, who was cooking in the house, heard Jiang Wan's voice and said.

"No, grandma is still waiting for me at home." Jiang Wan declined.

When she reached the door, Jiang Wan paused, then turned around and said, "There have been a lot of people getting the flu in the city's hospitals recently. It seems to be quite serious this year. If you don't mind, buy some masks, alcohol, etc. and keep them at home. Remember to keep them at home when you go out.

Wear a mask.”

It doesn't matter, it's better if she can remind her.

I don't know if the second uncle will care, but the second aunt is a teacher and can be considered an intellectual. She has more contact with students and teachers in school, so she should be careful.

"Every time the seasons change, there is influenza. It's like this every year. I know, thank you Xiaowan for reminding me." Wang Ling said with a smile.

As soon as Jiang Wan walked back to the yard, she smelled a strong aroma of meat. When she walked to the kitchen, she saw that Jiang Nai had just cooked rice and stewed half a chicken. The rich aroma came from the pot.

"Grandma's cooking is getting better and better." Jiang Wan sniffed and looked at the chicken in the pot with bright eyes. She also added her favorite vermicelli, which was bubbling.

"You are the only one with a sweet mouth." Jiang Nai took out the dishes and brought out some chubby white steamed buns. Jiang Wan couldn't wait to eat them.

The vermicelli soaked in the soup is smooth and chewy, and the chicken tastes great, not too raw or rotten. This is her favorite meal.

Too busy eating to talk, Jiang Wan licked her thumbs at Jiang Nai.

Seeing her eating so deliciously, Jiang Nai felt happy.

After eating and drinking enough, Jiang Wan took a look at the space before going to bed and found that the lettuce she had confiscated yesterday had grown up and had grown stalks, blossomed and set seeds.

Jiang Wan collected the seeds and put them into the specimen grid. They could really be put in, which meant that the seeds could be planted.

Then she won’t have to worry about the seeds being planted and useless in the future?

At this time, the strawberries have bloomed, the watermelon seedlings have grown very long, and the grapes have grown to half a person's height. Now they need to build a grape trellis.

Jiang Wan cut down some slender branches from the trees he cut down today and began to build trellises for the grapes, tying a tall trunk next to each tree.

Fortunately, she planted them relatively far away, so people could still walk around in the gaps between each plant.

After finishing these, I used ropes to build a layer on top, like a tall shed, and fixed the grapevines on the shelf so that they could grow on top.

I packed up the grapes and built a shelf for the taller tomatoes, cucumbers, and beans.
