The Reborn Wife is Farming

Shu Wanniang glanced at the two rabbits, and gave her daughter a reproachful look. She raised her since she was a child, and she is most familiar with her hunting methods.

Mu Yangling stuck out his tongue, and approached to hold his mother's hand intimately, "Mother, I'll take the rabbit to the county town to exchange some eggs and come back to give you supplementary food, so that younger brothers and sisters will have milk to drink."

Shu Wanniang thought of the twins crying from hunger in the past few days, so she forced an ugly smile on her face, touched her daughter's head and said, "Okay, just change one, and you can keep the other one for dinner."

Ma Liushi took the rabbit from Xiuhong's hand, and said, "Let me go, lest others see Ah Ling bully her."

Mu Yangling couldn't ask for it, and Ma Liu's bargaining skills were unmatched.

Ma Liu brought back thirty-five eggs that night, and two a day for Shu Wanniang would be enough for a period of time.

Mu Yangling fell asleep early in the morning, got up before dawn the next day, woke up Xiuhong Xiulan for the first time, put on thick clothes for them, and said: "Let's go burn the grass in a while, I see It's over, there's no wind now."

Ma Liushi had already gotten up and cooked porridge for them, and let everyone eat the porridge before leaving, so as to warm up their bodies.

Little Bowen got up in a daze and wanted to go. Mu Yangling stuffed him into the quilt and said, "Sleep with your mother honestly. You are still young. If you get sick, the family has no money to buy you medicine. Take care of your brother at home." Sister, we will be back in the morning."

Mu Yangling drank two bowls of porridge, took the fire bag and went out.

At the end of the field, Mu Yangling handed them the broken branches with leaves, "Xiuhong, you and Xiulan guard one end, my aunt guards the other end, and I guard the other end."

"What about here?" Auntie asked.

"Don't worry about it, as far as it goes, it's our family's land. Let the fire burn in this direction. Don't burn too wide. Slowly control the burning. When you leave, you must ensure that the flames are extinguished. "

After Mu Yangling finished speaking, he went to the side and lit the weeds with hay. The first-class land here is okay, the weeds are only seven or eight centimeters high, and the further you go, the worse the land is. The worst land may be because it has not been cultivated for a long time. The weeds there are no bigger than a person's calf, and the fire must be very big when it burns there.

Mu Yangling waited for the fire to burn for a certain distance, then extinguished a few sporadic small fires with branches, followed the fire in front, and said: "That's it, when you go forward, you must put out the flames behind. The dew will not burn quickly forward, we will go back when the dew is almost dry."

Xiuhong Xiulan and Ma Liushi both understood, nodded and lit the fire with hay to the side, and the four of them guarded the fire and walked in gradually.

When the sun came out and the dew on the dry grass gradually dried, the four of them had already burned nearly ten acres of land. Mu Yangling led them to put out the fire, and walked again to make sure that the flames were all extinguished, and piled up the piled ashes Scratching open, watching Mars lose the last bit of red light in the cold air, and then leave.

Xiuhong and Xiulan followed Mu Yangling's instructions, and quickly inspected the burnt area.

Mrs. Ma Liu was very happy and said excitedly: "It is really effective to use fire. You see, we can burn all the grass in the field within a few days."

Mu Yangling looked up at the sky, "I don't know if it will affect the air?"

"What?" Ma Liu looked up suspiciously.

"It's nothing, Auntie, let's go back and mow the grass after we have a rest. The grass that falls down is too high and lush, so we have to cut out fire escapes, otherwise I won't dare to burn it."

Ma Liushi didn't understand, but she knew that she just listened to Ah Ling, so she nodded in agreement.

After daybreak, the Hu family was the first family to discover that the Mu family had burned weeds. When they saw the vines and weeds, swaying in the cold wind, the old man couldn't help but be speechless, "That old sister-in-law is really brave, such a day! Even if you dare to set fire, if you are not careful, you can burn the whole land, and maybe it will also bring disaster to the mountains."

Hu Fang said: "Murve your weeds. They take care of too much. I think their family only burns the short grass at the front, and they have to be the same as us anyway."

The old man Hu straightened up to look at such a large piece of land, and sighed: "I used to always want to get more land, but now I have it, but I am worried. When will so much grass be removed?"

Mrs. Hu Fang buried her head in her work and said nothing. They have a large family, they leave early and return late, and they can always finish their work. The Mu family is old and young, so don't they get more jealous?

In the afternoon, the Mu family came over with a sickle. Hu Fang looked up at them, then continued to squat down and said, "I'm not wrong, I still have to cut it."

"Mother, that's not right, why don't they cut from the side, but from the inside?" Hu Fang's eldest daughter-in-law Zhang asked strangely.

Hu Fangshi and old man Hu looked up, but they didn't see why.

Mu Yangling asked them to cut a one-meter-wide firebreak, and the grass was cut off by the roots. Later, they only needed to weed the grass, and the workload was greatly reduced.

This time, Xiao Bowen also came. It was his first time doing farm work, and Mu Yangling was terrified watching it, fearing that he would cut his hands.

There was no way to cut it out for a day, Mu Yangling saw that the sky was getting dark, and said: "Go back first, come back tomorrow, and cut it according to the road I marked for you today, and tomorrow I will go to Xishan Village to see if I can find some. farm tools."

It took half a day to walk from Chenggutun to Xishan Village. Mu Yangling got up early in the morning. When he reached the intersection of Linshan Village, Mu Yangling couldn't help but go in.

This is the place where she lived for nine years. She was born and grew up here, but now, it is full of burned houses, including Mu's house. I searched and found nothing.

Not long after they fled to the county seat, Liu He worried about the people in the village and asked Liu Dacang to bring back about twenty young men to collect their bodies.

They are all folks, and they can't die and leave their corpses in the wilderness, but the government servants who check and count will only throw them into a big pit and sell them, without even a straw mat.

The villagers of Linshan Village buried themselves with at least a name and a tombstone, and the things in the village have also been cleaned up.

Mu Yangling stood in front of his house and sighed, then turned and headed towards Xishan Village.

The situation in Xishan Village is worse than in Linshan Village, but it can be seen that Xishan Village has not been cleaned up. Mu Yangling went into the house and searched, and found some iron pieces in the ruins. The mother-in-law's eyes lit up when she saw that her house was still in the same state as it was when it collapsed.

Ma Liu's house collapsed during the first snowfall. Later, Mu Shi and Liu Ting came to repair it, but it was not fully repaired. The next two heavy snowfalls also collapsed the kitchen. Mu Shi considered that Shu Wanniang had to take care of her, and it was cold, so he left someone to live in Mu's house. The house will be built when it gets warmer.

Who knew that because the house was collapsed, the barbarians didn't set fire to it. It was the only surviving house in Xishan Village.

Mu Yangling carefully rummaged into the utility room. When he saw the hoe, shovel and iron plow on the ground, he immediately became happy. "It's good that my aunt's house collapsed. Not only are people safe, but the things are also preserved."

Mu Yangling put the things in the back basket, picked them up again, and saw that there was nothing left, so he picked up the back basket, picked up the iron plow and hoe, and rushed to Chenggutun.
