Liu Qingshan sat in the inner room with Li Jianhua and said nothing.
The old lady brought up the soybeans and cursed: "Jianqun has a backache. I'll give it to her. Why are you eating such good soybeans? You won't even lay eggs after eating them."
Xiaoqin walked over, blocked her way, and begged: "Mom, this is the life-saving medicine the mayor sent to Jianhua. You can't give it to my eldest sister. The doctor told Jianhua to eat soybeans..."
"Why does Jianhua eat soybeans? He takes medicine when he is sick." The old lady didn't care at all. She had four daughters, and they were all doing well. However, this son was always sick and there was no way to provide for her in old age.
The eldest daughter Li Jianqun said that her younger brother will not survive this winter.
Her daughter-in-law is even more despised by her. Her parents' family is a poor family with no brothers. If Li Jianhua can't survive this winter, this daughter-in-law can be kicked out and make a living on her own.
Liu Qingshan walked out of the inner room and coughed: "Aunt Li, these soybeans are for your son."
Mrs. Li was still a little scared when she saw Liu Qingshan, and said with a smile: "Is it really you who sent it? How could I have such good soybeans at home?"
"Auntie, Jianhua's illness is nothing but malnutrition. Don't give this little soybean to your daughter's house. The town has squeezed out a few kilograms. The patient must survive first."
Of course Mrs. Li heard what he said and immediately changed the direction and said: "Eat, then cook it for him quickly. Since everyone in the town cares about him, we must cooperate."
The old lady in the countryside felt a little inexplicable when she said "cooperate".
Seeing Xiaoqin grab a big handful and cook them, the old lady habitually cursed: "You blind thing, you cook the soybeans without soaking them. How much firewood do you have to waste?"
Liu Qingshan had a headache after hearing this, but he was a man and it was not easy to help Xiaoqin openly. If he talked too much, the old lady Hu Qin said that Xiaoqin had an affair with him, and the yellow mud fell into her crotch. She couldn't tell whether it was feces or not.
Already.
He stood up and said to Li Jianhua: "Eat first. Don't eat too much at one time. Too many soybeans will bloat your stomach."
After leaving Li Jianhua's house, Liu Qingshan felt very heavy. To focus on production, he must focus on production and grow more grains so that everyone can have enough to eat.
What's wrong with Li Jianhua? He's obviously hungry. He's not so hungry that he can't help it. As for his 15-year-old son, he faked his age to be 18 and sent him to the coal mine!
He went around delivering soybeans, and Liang Xiaonan planted soybeans in the yard. One acre of land yielded more than 500 kilograms of soybeans in one crop. She only planted three crops, which was not enough.
After planting a large amount, she tried density. Anyway, her soybeans are irrigated by space spring water and do not need too much sunlight.
Try it!
Originally, the spacing between plants remained unchanged at 10 cm, and the spacing between rows was 30 cm. Now, the beans are scattered all over the place in a chaotic manner, with twice as many seeds being sown.
This time she found that the bean stalks were all crowded together and the pods were so densely packed that every sight was covered with pods.
After they matured, she collected all the pods. According to the size of the pile, she felt that the soybean harvest had increased, but it only seemed to have doubled.
So there should still be some space left.
The black spring liquid had dripped half a spoonful overnight, and she used it without hesitation to burn the bean stalks into fertilizer.
Now she already has about 3,000 kilograms of soybeans and 3,200 kilograms of grains, which will be enough for a while.
She decided to plant another crop of black beans. It turned out that she heard an old lady selling "black bean sprouts" in the village early every morning. Everyone exchanged wheat for black bean sprouts, saying that black bean sprouts are nutritious.
She can grow some black beans, stir-fry vegetables and squeeze soy milk, and eat some nutritious food.
By the afternoon of the third day of her busy work, she had already planted two crops of black beans, and she felt that the yields of black beans and soybeans were about the same. She originally wanted to plant another crop in the evening, but Liang Xiaobei came.
"Sister, you haven't been back for several days. Grandma was a little worried and asked me to come over and have a look." Liang Xiaobei said, "I have broken all the bamboo pieces. When will the greenhouse be installed?"
"It's not too cold now, and it will be too late to start building again in a few days," Liang Xiaonan said to his younger brother, "Xiaobei, I want to plant strawberries in the garden behind."
Liang Xiaobei didn't even know what strawberries were. No one in Dakeng Village had ever mentioned strawberries or seen them.
"Can we plant in winter? It's too cold!" In Liang Xiaobei's impression, it's so cold and freezing in winter that no plants can grow at all, let alone fruits.
"Strawberries are the fruit of winter. Besides, don't we have a greenhouse?" There are several rolls of plastic tent cloth and film in her space, thanks to Wang Chao.
Thinking of Wang Chao, she decided to quickly go to the provincial capital and give Wang Chao some more things. She couldn't take advantage of him in vain. Although there were problems with the origin of his things, Liang Xiaonan didn't want to take advantage of others.
Liang Xiaobei had never doubted the tremendous changes his sister had shown since the separation. He only felt that life was very exciting.
A 13-year-old boy really doesn't think too much, especially when everything goes so well, his stomach is full, and his sister has almost healed the scar on his face.
When he heard what Liang Xiaonan said, he happily said that he would take the time to pull all the bamboo pieces over and help his sister build the greenhouse.
Liang Xiaonan said that she planted some soybeans and black beans in the garden. She had picked out the pods but had not beaten out the shells. She took them back to her grandma to beat them.
Liang Xiaobei held the cart and saw Liang Xiaonan carrying two sacks out of the east room. He asked in surprise: "Sister, did your garden collect two sacks of soybeans?"
"More than that, there were originally four sacks. I took half of them and exchanged them for sacks, baskets and dustpans." Liang Xiaonan put two baskets and dustpans on the cart, and the rest were put into the space. She is not in this yard.
It’s better not to put things on display.
After locking the door, Liang Xiaonan said: "I'm going to buy two sesame seed cakes. Let's eat and walk. I'm a little hungry."
Liang Xiaobei was very good at living, and he was reluctant to eat it himself. Liang Xiaonan forcefully bought it, and he followed suit.
While pulling the cart, the two siblings each ate a sesame seed cake and were in a great mood.
"Xiaobei, you said two soybeans fought and their noses were bruised and their faces were swollen. What happened?"
Liang Xiaobei didn't react for a moment. Looking at the joking look on his sister's face, he knew that her sister was teasing him.
"What can be achieved by fighting with soybeans? If they are broken into pieces, the bean dregs will be scattered all over the ground."
"That means both soybeans are disabled, and that means they are disabled (broad) beans."
Liang Xiaonan calmly revealed the answer to the mystery. Liang Xiaobei was stunned for a moment and laughed: "Sister, if your nose is bruised and your face is swollen, you will turn into a green bean!"
"Yes! Did you beat him to a bloody head?"
"It's dyed red, Anko!"
"Did one flatten the other?"
"Lentils, hahahaha."
"Has your brain been knocked out?"
"Soy milk! Hiahiahia~~~Sister, is the soy milk delicious?"
Liang Xiaonan said nothing. For children in the previous life, soy milk was a bad breakfast. Today, except for the tofu grinders in the production team who can drink a bowl of soy milk, 90% of people have never drank it.
She wanted to slow down her pace, take her grandma and brother with her, enjoy life, and use soybeans and black beans to treat the malnutrition of the three of them.
"Sister, why didn't you send potatoes to Wanghulou Hotel?" Liang Xiaobei hadn't seen Liang Xiaonan send potatoes to Wanghulou for a long time. "Aren't the 2 acres of potatoes in Nanfeng Town ripe yet?"
"This," Liang Xiaonan suddenly thought of something, patted his head and shouted in frustration, "It's over, it's over, I made a big mistake..."
