After eating such a meal, Zhang Yanping could no longer move his buttocks.
However, it was impossible to work hard, and he would not suffer such hardship in this life. He decided to stay firmly rooted on the stool, even if his aunt disliked it.
Song Sancheng, who is currently at the bottom of the food chain, did not dare to say anything after eating, but actively and diligently cleared away the dishes.
But since Wu Lan knew that tea could be sold for ten thousand and ten kilograms, he threw away his rice bowl and went straight up the mountain with the basket! He was more active than anyone else.
What's the use of being angry with a man? Making money is the most important thing!
Song Tan announced:
"Brother Yanping, you and Qiao Qiao can dig a vegetable garden together this afternoon!"
When digging a vegetable field, you need to turn over the soil first and then break it up. Although the space is not big, it is still a meticulous job. This is the first time Qiao Qiao has taken on such a serious task, and she does it very seriously.
Originally, the vegetable garden at home had been dug last night, but the grandparents said that they would not be short of vegetables after planting the land anyway, so they might as well free up another adjacent vegetable plot for Song Tan.
That piece hasn't been dug yet.
Just enough for Zhang Yanping to get used to it.
Song Tan went to take a look at the cabbage seeds that were soaked at noon, and secretly added some spiritual energy to them. Now, after half a day, slight buds have begun to bulge.
She planned to plant them all this evening.
The vegetable garden is not a big place. It only adds up to three-thirds of the land, almost two hundred square meters.
But if you plant Chinese cabbage, which can produce four thousand kilograms per mu if you sow it casually, the normal yield of this piece of land can be one thousand two hundred kilograms.
If there is another spiritual energy bonus...
Song Tan mentally settled the score and couldn't wait any longer.
She had a good idea, but Zhang Yanping didn't lift his butt:
"I'm not going." He was obviously very insistent.
"If you don't go, you won't have anything to eat tonight."
"Then I won't go either." Zhang Yanping chuckled: "Tantan, you are still young and don't know the persistence of adults. My aunt will never starve me."
Song Tan also smiled meaningfully: "Brother Yan Ping, I won't starve you, but that doesn't mean you can eat like this until noon. If you are willing to eat something different from us, then you can show it off here.
.”
Zhang Yanping's heart skipped a beat.
But how can a grown man just admit defeat like this?
He said stubbornly: "Impossible, you are so busy, how can you still have time to cook two meals?"
Song Tan smiled and said nothing.
But before that, a piece of the field must be plowed. Rice needs to be intensively bred first, and then transplanted.
There are also some vegetable seedlings that need to be cultivated.
Song Tan brought the tools to Qiao Qiao: "Be good, dig your grandparents' vegetable garden carefully. Once it's done, we'll plant vegetables in the evening."
"Don't you want to grow corn?"
Qiao Qiao obviously doesn't like Song Tan's way of growing vegetables.
"It's been planted, but it's not the time yet. When the time comes, set aside a separate field to grow corn for us, Qiao Qiao, okay?"
Only then did Qiao Qiao feel satisfied.
Zhang Yanping couldn't help but shake his head when he looked at his innocent look.
Song Tan walked to the field and looked at the old cow lying leisurely in the field with a few birds standing on it. He couldn't help but smile:
"Grandpa Li!"
"Hey!" A man sat up on the field ridge. He was the owner of the old scalper.
"Grandpa Li, is the milkvetch in my field delicious?"
Wrinkles appeared on Old Man Li's face: "Okay! It's very good. It's more delicious than stewed meat. I have to cut a basket every day."
Song Tan took the initiative to bring up this matter.
Old Man Li had suffered a lot in his youth and was not picky about what he ate. Although these two fields had been eaten by cows, he found some corners that were still crisp and tender.
I just tasted it once. I have to bring a basket here every day when grazing cattle. It tastes good in my mouth and I feel like I have hope for the future.
Looking at Song Tan now, I just feel that this girl is good in every aspect. As expected of a college student, she is better at farming than them.
"Tan Tan, what brings you here?"
Song Tan pointed out two pieces of land adjacent to the paddy fields and dry fields:
"Grandpa Li, it's time to cultivate rice seeds these days. Please plow them over the next two days and make them more detailed."
"I'm going to grow some vegetable seedlings on the dry land above, but I have to be more careful."
Old man Li has been doing plowing for half his life. He just agreed without thinking:
"Don't worry, I know what you want, and I will definitely get it done for you."
Then he pointed to the corner of the field:
"That piece is leeward, the sun is good, and it's next to the ditch. I just need to turn that piece up and down to make it thinner."
Looking at the bright sun again, the old man naturally has a lot of experience to share:
"Tell your dad to take the time to make more straw curtains. The weather is like this, morning and night, and you have to keep it covered."
"I think the chestnuts on the mountain will bloom in a while, right? Don't just ignore the chestnuts. The black fungus underneath should be able to breathe."
The workload has increased again - Song Tan's scalp is really numb.
If this place was deserted, she could still use some tricks, but now there are so many people in the village, and the fields and mountains are under their noses, so everything can only happen slowly.
However, looking at Old Man Li's unfinished expression, Song Tan's heart moved and he suddenly asked:
"Grandpa Li, why don't you help me take care of the seedlings first? I'll take care of the two paddy fields for you later."
"I won't say anything about whether to pay or not. Anyway, I will cover all the rice, flour, oil, vegetables and meat for you for a year. Do you think that's okay?"
The old man also has great wisdom. Old man Li smiled and said:
"If you don't dislike me for being old and unable to work, you can cut twenty pounds of your pork for me by the end of the year!"
Song Tan couldn't laugh or cry.
"Having an old man in the family is like having a treasure. Grandpa Li, you are much more capable than us young ones."
Even though the old men in the village seem to be in low spirits every day and staggering when they walk, let them go to the ground and they will do it faster than anyone else.
That pair of ruthless iron hands can rival many young men in just talking about pulling grass.
Apart from anything else, Old Man Li still has a lot of experience in growing rice. After all, he has been growing this for the first half of his life. Now he speaks properly:
"Don't worry, I'll make sure to raise you well."
Now that he has the responsibility, he is willing to say more: "By the way, Tan Tan, take the time to clean up the pond above you. There are too many aquatic plants in it. Raise more grass carp."
Grass carp eats grass very aggressively, so it is suitable for such an environment.
"I think the water quality in the pond is good. If you take the time to get some crucian carp fry in and keep them well, it will also be a source of income."
Song Tan also had this plan.
"Grandpa Li, I plan to wait until the rice fields are drained of water before releasing the fish fry. Otherwise, they will all flow into the fields along the canals."
It's not that she doesn't want to raise fish in the rice fields, it's mainly that the group of ducks on the mountain will be able to eat grass in the fields, and she can make a time difference later.
However, Old Man Li said:
"What are you afraid of? The fish has entered the rice fields. It is more beneficial than the ducks. It will also feed you with insects and grass to fertilize the fields. They say on TV that rice flower fish can be sold more expensively."
"At worst, you can put out more fish fry when the time comes. I'll keep an eye on you in the rice fields."

Currently I owe "Lu Xiaowen" 10,000 days for guessing the bumble bee, and I also owe the same 10,000 days for an unpopular plant provided by "Ming Ming I'm Handsome" in the comment area.
Let’s arrange it at the end of the month. I’ve learned a lot during this time, so let’s take it easy.
