Chapter 10 Add some nutrient solution to fruit trees
The next morning, they returned from Pingyuan County.
After arriving home, Wang Yuelan was cutting meat and vegetables at home, preparing to make lunch.
When Mengmeng saw her grandma, she jumped up and ran over, opened her little hands and shouted: "Grandma, give me a hug."
But Wang Yuelan was cutting meat, and her hands were full of oil. She spread her hands and showed them to her granddaughter: "Mengmeng, stay away from grandma, or I will get it on you."
"Oh!" Mengmeng stood there in confusion, scratching her head: "Grandma, what are you doing?"
"Grandma is cutting meat. Would you like to invite those grandpas and uncles who built our house to have dinner?" Wang Yuelan said.
When Mengmeng heard this, she clapped her little hands and shouted, "I eat too, I eat too."
"Okay, let's give the best meat to Mengmeng later." Wang Yuelan cut another piece of pork belly and was ready to call it a day.
Cao Shujie came over and saw that there was not a lot of meat cut in the basin: "Mom, why did you cut so much meat? Who can eat it?"
Cheng Xiaolin also said: "Mom, just cut more. If it's not enough, let's buy more."
"Let me tell you what's good about you. Our family is in charge of cooking. If we put two or three kilograms of meat into a pot of stew, it's good. If other people can put one kilogram of meat in it, it's good. If you save a little money, it's money." Wang Yuelan muttered.
"Besides, pork is so expensive now, it costs fifteen or six yuan per pound!"
After hearing what their mother said, Cao Shujie and Cheng Xiaolin stopped nagging her.
"Honey, you play with Mengmeng for a while, and I'll get something." Cao Shujie said.
Cheng Xiaolin looked at the big and small bags he brought in and knew he was going to prepare the nutrient solution, so she ignored him.
"You go and do your work. I'll take Mengmeng outside for a walk." Cheng Xiaolin said simply.
Cao Shujie was busy for most of the day. Fortunately, everything went smoothly and he finally got what he wanted.
Looking at the slightly turbid and yellowish liquid in the transparent glass bottle in his hand, Cao Shujie was very happy. This was one of the research results that he often worked overtime and stayed up late in his previous life.
Currently, due to the incomplete materials, it can only be said to be a semi-finished product, but it is sufficient for use.
And this thing has only one function, which is to add nutrients to plants, encourage them to grow stronger and develop better.
This is just like people who are deficient in calcium, iron, and zinc are prone to various problems due to malnutrition and require targeted supplementation. The effect of this nutrient solution on plants is the same.
"It's too late today, I'll go spread it early tomorrow morning and see what the effect is." Cao Shujie muttered.
As for the price of this thing, it is not expensive at all, but if there is no formula and no understanding of the mixing ratio, Cao Shujie is very confident that even if the raw materials are given to others, others will not be able to make the finished product.
Cao Shujie has been engaged in research in this area for his entire life, and this is the masterpiece of his hard work.
In this life, he had just compiled a project research plan and submitted his resignation before it was submitted to the company.
Cheng Xiaolin saw that her husband finally showed up, and was about to ask him what was going on. But as she got closer, she smelled a pungent smell from her husband, and subconsciously covered her nose and took two steps back:
"Husband, you smell so bad."
This is just like some people who can't get used to the smell of stinky tofu and have to avoid even the slightest smell.
Cao Shujie didn't care. He said, "I'm going to change my clothes. This will be gone as soon as I wash it."
But Mengmeng didn't care about anything else. She hadn't seen her father for most of the day. When she saw him suddenly appearing, she yelled "oh" and rushed towards him.
Cao Shujie was afraid that she would fall, so he quickly knelt down and hugged her. But at this moment, Mengmeng also raised a pair of small hands to cover her nose: "Dad stinks."
"Haha!" Cao Shujie laughed for a while and put her down.
"I'm going to change clothes," he said.
…
At night, after her daughter Mengmeng fell asleep, Cheng Xiaolin took the bottle of nutrient solution that looked yellowish and had residue residue at the bottom of the bottle, and asked her husband: "This is the nutrient solution you mentioned, does it work?"
"Honey, I spent my life studying it for free, it will definitely work." Cao Shujie teased.
He said: "I will spray it on tomorrow morning, so don't go and rest at home with Mengmeng for a while."
Cheng Xiaolin gave him a roll of her eyes: "Do you think Mengmeng can stay idle?"
"Besides, it's very tiring for you to work alone. I'll go over and help you tomorrow. We can take turns and it can go faster."
Hearing his wife say this, Cao Shujie felt a faint sense of satisfaction in his heart.
If you have such a wife, what more can a husband ask for?
At this time, it was already very dark, and the wind was blowing outside, and there was a "whooshing" sound, which was particularly harsh.
The wind didn't stop until late at night. By this time, Cao Shujie and his family were already fast asleep.
On the morning of the 21st, the temperature was slightly cooler.
The big locust tree in the yard has sprouted new green leaves, and in a few days it will grow locust flowers. The dumplings and fried eggs taste so delicious!
In Cao Shujie's memory, his parents planted this locust tree at home when he was still young. At that time, its trunk could be held in one hand, but now it cannot be pinched with both hands.
In the blink of an eye, it will be twenty years.
Her mother, Wang Yuelan, got up to make breakfast again. Cao Shujie also told her that there was no need to do it so early, but she didn't listen. She had a biological clock of several decades. If she didn't cook at this time, it would be as if all her work for the day had to be postponed.
Father Cao Jianguo came out of the house and saw his son looking at the locust tree in the yard. He said, "Shujie, the house has been demolished. I asked your grandfather Zhenggang to save all the usable bricks and call the truck for the rest."
If we take it away and fill the big hole, we can save thousands of dollars."
Cao Shujie didn't expect them to move so quickly, and was quite surprised: "Dad, why are you so fast?"
"It's all machinery and equipment. The excavator drove over and the truck was filled up in a few seconds. Can't it be faster?" Cao Jianguo said.
If you think about it carefully, this is really the case.
"This second floor of yours is a little troublesome, but the temperature will get higher and higher in the back. When the time comes, the drying will be faster, and it will be finished in more than two months." Cao Jianguo said to his son.
Cao Shujie was not in a hurry: "Dad, it's okay. Take your time. There is still decoration to do later, and it will take some time."
Cao Jianguo was puzzled and said to his son: "If you really want to decorate it like a building, how much more will it cost? In our hometown, we don't pay much attention to it. Is it necessary?"
"Dad, you don't understand. If you want to live, live comfortably. It's not like you can't make money, so why should you wrong yourself?" Cao Shujie shook his head and said.
He disagrees with his father's point of view. This is a cognitive difference between the two generations, and there is no possibility of anyone convincing the other.
When Cao Jianguo heard what his son said, he knew that there was no point in talking about it anymore, so he thought that he should just let him do it on his own without asking for money.
It was past eight o'clock, and the temperature was just right. After having breakfast at home, Cao Shujie rode an electric tricycle, pulled two buckets of water, cleaned the spray bucket, and then took his mother and daughter to the foot of the mountain.
After arriving here, Cao Shujie discovered a problem. The road up the mountain was a bit narrow and not very easy to walk. He couldn't go up on a tricycle. He had to carry it up, which made it difficult.
He muttered: "There are really a lot of things to do."
"Husband, what's wrong?" Cheng Xiaolin asked without hearing clearly.
Cao Shujie shook his head, pointed to the small road, and said, "Next step, I plan to find someone to repair this road, otherwise it will be quite troublesome in the future."
"Husband, do you plan to sell these fruits during the autumn harvest?" Cheng Xiaolin asked him.
Hearing his wife ask this, Cao Shujie immediately shook his head: "How is it possible? How much money can you make like that?"
