The Reborn Wife is Farming

By the time Mu Yangling and Liu Mashi arrived in the field, the Liu family had already started.

When Liu Ting saw them, he dropped the things in his hands and came over, smiling at Mu Yangling, "Come on, uncle will plow with you."

Mu Yangling looked at his hands, shook his head and said, "Let Aunt Ting come, cousin, you'd better take a break, my father has medicinal wine, if you don't mind, I'll bring you half a bottle tomorrow come over."

Liu Ting's face turned red, and Mrs. Liu and Zhang smiled and pushed him away, "Okay, okay, you think you are pulling the plow, and I have to push it forward. Aling pulls the plow, I just need to push a little bit harder." Just push it to the ground, go to the side, don't delay our efforts."

What he said made everyone laugh, Liu Ting could only touch his nose and go back, giving the iron plow to his wife.

Mu Yangling plowed on Liu Li's side first, and then ran to Liu's side. People in the nearby fields saw that Mu Yangling could pull the plow alone enough for three families. They couldn't help but envy the Liu family's good luck, and said: " Liu Daqian and Liu Erqian's family is fine, after all, they are blood relatives of the family, but this Liu Li's family is also very lucky, and I don't usually see how good he and the Mu family are."

The focus of non-Linshan villagers is, "This girl's strength is simply divine. If she can marry her back home, she will never have to worry about farming land even if she doesn't have cattle."

But this is just a dare to think about it.

Mu Yangling ran alternately under the envious and jealous eyes of others, and the third uncle's family didn't dare to offend Mu Yangling even if they were annoyed.

The Mu family is no longer just a relative to the Liu family, but more of a kindness. Didn't you see Mu Yangling contradicting the third uncle without any pressure?

Liu He didn't say a word.

When the sun was about to set in the evening, Mu Yangling went to help Liu Daqian's family plow a lot of land, and before leaving, he said to Liu Mashi: "Auntie, I will come tomorrow, when you come to the field, bring more wheat. kind."

Liu Mashi agreed.

And Mrs. Liu Zhang also gave Mu Yangling a reply, "Just do as you and Alang said, and my aunt will come to your house the day after tomorrow to help you do the delicate work, but the aunt said ugly things first, how can you do this job?" Come to direct, my aunt doesn't know what the most delicate work should be like."

"Don't worry, auntie, I've thought about it a long time ago, you just do what I say."

What Mu Yangling wants to experiment with is nothing more than these types. There are two types of wheat to be planted. One is to sow directly as it is now, and the other is to soak in water to germinate, and then plant a short amount of malt. The two kinds of wheat are divided into two ways of covering the soil respectively.

One is the traditional way of covering the soil with feet, and the other is covering the soil with two rows of rakes, which can be divided into deep and shallow.

One acre of medium-sized land for each of the two types of wheat is divided equally among the acre for soil cover experiments. The subsequent fertilization and irrigation are synchronized, and one must not favor one over the other. It all depends on how the autumn harvest is.

Among them, the flatness of the land is better than what they have cultivated before, and they should be cultivated as deeply as possible, so Mu Yangling plans to spend one to two days on the four acres of land, and she, Ma Liushi and Liu Zhangshi will do it, Xiao Bowen They were still young, so it was inevitable that they were a little negligent, so they were sent out by her to do other jobs.

Mu Yangling felt that if this experiment was successful, the next experiment would be rice.

Compared with flour, she still prefers to eat rice, and the yield of rice is lower in Xingzhou Prefecture. Therefore, everyone chooses to grow wheat, leaving only a little bit of rice, and the seeds that are distributed are also occupied by wheat seeds. most.

The same goes for the Mu family, leaving only 13 acres of high-quality rice fields.

But in fact, Mu Yangling prefers two types of cross-planting, just because wheat can be planted in February, but rice can be planted in March. This way, the time is staggered, the labor intensity is reduced, and everyone can plant more carefully. Before that, Mu Yangling had to solve the problem of rice production. If the rice production in Xingzhou Prefecture was still so low, not to mention other people, even the Mu family would not spend a large amount of land to grow rice.

This is really a long way to go.

Mu Yangling regretted it very much. In her previous life, she should not have listened to her father's advice and went to a military academy. Instead, she should have gone to an agricultural university. Now she won't be blind.

Who said agriculture is an unpopular profession? Obviously it is the most useful profession.

When Mu Yangling got home, she squatted in the basin and looked at the wheat seeds she soaked in the water. Seeing that some of the wheat seeds had sprouted, she breathed a sigh of relief, "I was worried that the water would be too cold to sprout. "

When Mu Yangling said this, his eyes lit up slightly, and he looked at Ma Liushi, "Auntie, why don't we try it with warm water, maybe the wheat seeds will germinate faster."

The aunt's face was all black, "You child..." The aunt couldn't find a suitable word to describe her, so she could only say angrily: "Even if there are many wheat seeds, they are not as spoiled as you. This year the imperial court is responsible for the wheat seeds, and next year we have to rely on ourselves. You should grow some food and save the wheat seeds until next year. "

Mu Yangling waved his hand indifferently and said: "Don't worry, Auntie, I will definitely not let you have nothing to eat. Isn't it an experiment now? I don't want to take too much, so I just take a handful and try it. If it doesn't work, let it go." gone."

Without waiting for Ma Liu's objection, Mu Yangling ran into the house and came out with a handful of wheat. He mixed some hot water with cold water and poured the wheat in when he felt that it was only slightly warm.

Xiuhong and the others squatted aside curiously.

Seeing that Shu Wanniang just smiled at them and didn't stop them, Ma Liushi was unhappy and said: "Wanniang, you should also take care of Ah Ling, this child is like this now, and she will have to listen to you in the future."

Shu Wanniang lowered her head and smiled, and said softly: "It's okay, auntie, I'll just listen to her, and what she said is right, there are too many wheat crops at home, and I can't run out of them, so why don't you give them to her... No, it's just doing it." The experiment, maybe it really led her to find a better planting method than now?"

"My ancestors have been farming like this for generations," Ma Liu said dissatisfied: "I haven't seen anyone going to toss about it. Could it be that she can change the yield from two hundred catties to two hundred and five catties? It's all because of how meticulous they are. , our family is small, and the production capacity per mu is not bad.”

Shu Wanniang doesn't know how to farm land, and she hasn't even farmed land before, so she doesn't have such deep-rooted ideas as Ma Liu's. In her opinion, dynasties can change, and the sky can change, so what in this world can't be changed?

She has always supported and tolerated her daughter, but her aunt is an elder, and Shu Wanniang's upbringing prevented her from contradicting her, so she could only practice Tai Chi before the two, trying to blur their conflicts.

Seeing that she had no intention of disciplining Mu Yangling, Ma Liu could only sigh, and went to the kitchen to cook for the children.
