Chapter 103 Try the improved seeds

As soon as she stepped through the door, she met Aju changing clothes.

It is definitely impossible to quit: would it be more interesting to watch monkeys in the yard than to watch people in the hut?

And the two girls in the house, how could they not know that Han Xiaokang had already entered the house?

There is only a room as big as a palm in total. Even if two tigers run in and out, the aura in the room will change, let alone a big living person entering.

If the other party is not afraid, then you are only afraid of yourself!

In the deep mountains and old forests, there are not so many worldly bonds. So Han Xiaokang walked to the table, sat down calmly and added food, and asked them casually, "How is it? Do you think this fabric is good?"

"OK."

Aju replied crisply, "This is still made of silk. I heard that in the old days, only wealthy landlords could afford to wear it."

Zhou Min helped Aju pull off the tube top and replaced it with another one to try on the size. She smiled and said, "Isn't your family a rich man? Do you have any silk clothes at home?"

"No, there is no such precious thing!"

A Ju couldn't stop laughing, "My father got the name of a small place for nothing, but in fact he only has a half-used long robe. When he goes to the market, he can wear it on the street to decorate his appearance."

In the old society, not everyone could wear long gowns.

This is not to say that there are any hard and fast rules, but there is a rule that everyone subconsciously recognizes.

Generally speaking, people wearing long gowns are either teachers in primary schools or shopkeepers in shops.

There are also some big-name Paoge men who are wandering around the world. They also wear long robes, just like ordinary lower-class people, but they are not qualified to wear them.

Therefore, in the old days, a person's general social status could be seen by wearing a short jacket or a long shirt.

That guy Wu Laoqi!

He lived frugally all his life, reluctant to eat or drink, and worked hard to save money to buy land.

In fact, he is just a rustic, and he is not qualified to wear a long gown, let alone a silk gown.

If it were worn by people in martial arts, it would be more like it!

There are 8 production teams in the entire Wujiazhai, and only those who are qualified for the martial arts examination have that qualification. Although his title of "Juren" was bought with money.

But I can't stand the ancestors of the Wuju people. They were truly wealthy people with a "di" name.

The land near the Wujiazhai production team used to be all named "Wu"!

It was only later that after several generations of Wu Juren’s grandfather, his father and Wu Juren himself, they persevered and lost their fortune.

This allowed his family to now only have a "rich" generation.

After Aju had tried on the tube top, she put on her coat, started washing pots and dishes, and then got ready to start working in the yard.

Zhou Min brought foot washing water and asked Han Xiaokang to scald his feet.

Then the two got ready to sleep.

Aju's work and rest schedule is opposite to others. She goes out to work at night.

Fortunately, there is the smell of pythons in the yard now, so no poisonous snakes will come near the hut.

In addition, there are two big tigers and two little wolves accompanying A Ju, so she doesn't have to worry about A Ju's personal safety when she works in the yard.

The little macaque squeaks, like humans, it also rests at night.

Moreover, it is actually very eager to spend the night in a hut, because monkeys are also afraid of wind and rain, as well as cold, wet and heavy dew.

Some smart gorillas and monkeys even build their own nests!

It’s just that Zhou Min is in the house.

The little macaque doesn't want to sleep, so he has to turn one eye open and close the other.

So tonight, Zhizhi stayed under the eaves, and Aju specially built a bamboo frame for it to spend the night.

The bed in the room is very soft.

It was during the day that Ah Ju used the extra parachute fabric to sew a new mattress cover, and then filled it with a lot of beaten lamp grass.

Very soft.

However, the light grass cannot sleep for long, and its softness will deteriorate, which is far less effective than cotton.

I am not short of cotton.

Currently, there are 24 military quilts accumulated in Fengchao cabinet.

It's just that during this period, cotton was a very important strategic material.

If Zhou Min hadn't been here, Han Xiaokang would have dared to remove the outer fabric of those military quilts and only use the cotton inner tubes.

Anyway, Aju is gentle and won't ask questions about herself.

It's a pity that cotton is too precious. Now that Zhou Min is here, he can only wait until the next time he goes out of the mountain, and then carry the cotton back and pretend that he bought it with money at the pigeon market.

Only by doing this can you muddle through.

"Xiaokang, I want to ask you something."

Zhou Min leaned into his arms and said softly, "When you come back next time, can you bring me two firecrackers? I, I owe the money to buy the firecrackers first. When I catch the prey,

Pay it back slowly."

"Pah——"

Han Xiaokang slapped the other person's upper hand, "What do you owe first and what do you pay back? Just from what you said, I can feel that your heart has not been fully integrated into this family at all!"

Zhou Min was very smart and knew what Han Xiaokang was referring to. Then he smiled softly and said, "Okay, okay, I was wrong. I will never say such things again."

Nowadays, in Aju's cabin, everyone really "eats, lives and works together". Everyone does all the work together, and all the gains are shared by everyone.

As for the cash obtained from selling prey, anyone who really needs it can use it.

——It’s just that everyone has no money now.

I originally had about 30 yuan left, but because of Aju's divorce last time, I had already used the cash to refund the bride price and converted it into food money, and gave it to the guy named Wang Desheng.

Originally, the family had enough money to build a house, but currently there is enough food in the mountains, so it stands to reason that people can breathe a sigh of relief for the time being.

But when I think about the people's commune coming soon, and then everyone eating with open stomachs for a while, what happens next is a bit scary.

So for a while, Han Xiaokang had to make money quickly, go to the pigeon market as much as possible, and buy more food to save.

That night, Zhou Min accidentally bit Han Xiaokang with her little tiger teeth because she was dodged by a little macaque.

So the two of them didn't have much thought and continued to practice the star-absorbing technique.

A night of silence.

The next morning, the mist was still lingering in the small valley. Han Xiaokang and Zhou Min got up early, leaving Aju to sleep alone.

The first thing you do when you wake up.

Han Xiaokang first chirped at the little macaque, imitating several wild goat calls, and then pointed to the mountains to indicate to the little macaque that it was time to go out to work.

This guy is very forgetful and couldn't remember the incident after one night.

Now that Han Xiaokang's old story was brought up again, Zhizhi had no choice but to leave reluctantly. Before leaving, this guy even scratched Erhu!

To show dissatisfaction: Why can those two little wolves and puppies play with each other every day?

But it itself has to be sent out to run around?

Ignoring the little macaque's little movements, Han Xiaokang and Zhou Min took the time to work.

The land has been leveled.

The large area of ​​land must be planted with rapeseed. Along the perimeter of the fence, some cowpeas, mung beans, pumpkins, etc. need to be sown.

Originally, this season was not very suitable for planting these things.

But Han Xiaokang insisted on giving it a try.

Because his Fengchao cabinet has the function of improving the quality of the grain stored in it. In this case, Han Xiaokang guessed that it should also be able to improve the seeds, right?

Moreover, the temperature in the mountains is originally several degrees lower than outside.

In this case, let's try it first. It doesn't matter if it doesn't work. Anyway, not much food seeds will be wasted.
Chapter completed!
