Chapter 8 Transforming the Song Family (1)
Song Zhaozhao, like Song's mother, was tossing and turning, unable to sleep, and all he could think about was Shao Qingyuan.
Song Zhaozhao remembered that Shao Qingyuan in the book was indeed coming back to Zhuangzi. A few days before his return, the Shao family went door-to-door with notices, and Zhuangzi became lively.
A large group of people came in from the entrance of the village. The leader in front was holding several flags, which was extremely majestic. Behind him was Shao Qingyuan who came in on horseback. He was wearing a gorgeous Jinshi uniform and holding a locust tree. The fabric and color of the clothes,
This is something that no one in Zhuangzi has ever seen.
Shao Qingyuan rode a five-flowered horse and paraded through the streets into the village under the official guard of honor, allowing the entire Zhuangzi people to admire his face. Song Zhaozhao was naturally among them.
Along the way, gongs and drums were beaten, and people on both sides cheered. The atmosphere was even more lively than the Chinese New Year.
There are eight guards in front of the carriage beside the carriage, and there are eight guards behind the carriage.
There were also a few beautiful women in the entourage, making it very lively.
On that day, Shao Qingyuan seemed to have brought back a woman. The woman was a high-ranking girl. Song Zhaozhao remembered that the woman seemed to have no parents. She only had one brother, who was also a Jin Yiwei. After Song Zhaozhao harmed that woman in the book,
, that is, she was caught by her brother.
…
It seems that Shao Qingyuan's return is not far away.
Forget it, what are you thinking about? I have to get up early tomorrow, change all the furnishings in the yard, and spread the pig manure on the field. It's a good time to plant vegetables recently.
For Shao Qingyuan, it's not worth it to miss my important event, Song Zhaozhao.
Early the next morning, as soon as the sky turned white, Song Zhaozhao got up.
Song Zhaozhao quietly put on his coat and walked outside. The air here was free from all kinds of exhaust pollution and was really fresh. The air was as fresh as if it had been washed, without any turbidity, and there was not a trace of dust in the sun.
.Refreshing like the smell of lotus leaves and mint on a summer night. Accompanied by a light earthy smell, the spring air is full of vitality.
Song Zhaozhao walked to the barren field. There was no fertile soil on it, and even the grass was unwilling to grow there.
Song Zhaozhao found a hoe and wanted to turn over the soil in the field to let it breathe, but he didn't expect that it had been abandoned for so long that he couldn't understand it at all, so he had to fetch some water first.
Zhaozhao carried two wooden barrels and walked beside the stream at the foot of the back mountain. Fortunately, his home was relatively remote and relatively close to the water source.
After returning from carrying water, he poured all the water into the field. Although there was not much water, it was enough for Song Zhaozhao to turn over the soil. After the soil was turned over, Song Zhaozhao put the pig that had been placed at the door for the past few days again.
The manure was carried in and the pig manure was evenly spread on the land aside.
It was a good thing that Song Zhaozhao didn't spread the pig manure. Once he spread the pig manure, the smell of the pig manure dissipated and smoked out the three members of the Song family who were still sleeping in the house.
"Girl, what are you doing?" Father Song walked out holding his nose.
The smell of pig manure is okay if you don't move it, but when you move it, the smell is extremely overpowering.
"Dad, is it too smelly? Or have I disturbed you?
Father Song wanted to wave his hand, but the smell was too strong, so he lowered the hand he had just raised and covered his nose.
"It's okay, it's time to get up, but girl, what are you doing?"
"Yes, the good air is gone this early in the morning."
Brother Song seemed a little angry when he got out of bed, with a hint of impatience in his tone.
"Brother, I'm sorry for waking you up." Song Zhaozhao was a little at a loss.
"Now that we're all up, my dear, mother, let's make breakfast."
"Hey, okay!" Mother Song's voice came from inside the house.
"It tastes like this, why should I eat it first..."
Before Brother Song's voice could even finish, Father Song slapped Brother Song hard on the head from behind.
"Hurry up and help your sister."
Brother Song had no choice but to cover his nose and follow the instructions.
"Sister, what are you doing..."
"Brother, this is to fertilize our fields."
"Fertilizing?"
Song Zhaozhao was talking to Brother Song, and Father Song also came over to help.
"Yes, Dad."
"Then why don't you spread pig manure on the fields?"
Brother Song pointed to the field next to him.
"Don't spread it on the fields. A few years ago, a family in our village spread pig manure on the fields, and the whole family got sick."
"Dad is right. Now, we can't spread it directly on the fields. We have to let it ferment."
The more Brother Song listened, the more confused he became, and he scratched his head in confusion.
"Girl, how do you ferment this pig manure so that you won't get sick after fermentation?"
"Yes, dad, you won't get sick. Let's dry the pig manure for a morning to remove its moisture. Then we pile the pig manure together and cover it tightly with a film. After a while, it will ferment."
"Is this the end?" Brother Song still looked at Song Zhaozhao in disbelief.
"Fermented pig manure is a good organic fertilizer, which helps the land become loose and fertile, giving the soil full nutritional value. It can enhance the biological nature of the land, the activity of soil enzymes, and is beneficial to preserving fertilizer and moisture, etc...
…”
Song Zhaozhao mumbled a lot, making Brother Song even more confused.
"Girl, did your fairy sister tell you what you said?"
Song Zhaozhao nodded proudly.
"You guys, please wait and see. Let's have breakfast first."
Today's breakfast returned to normal. Mother Song was a little reluctant to part with it. Although it was very delicious, after all, these things were extremely lacking. Song Zhaozhao did not continue to force it. Now it was urgent to change the overall appearance of the Song family.
.
Song Zhaozhao thought about it and lowered his head to find that the tables and chairs he made now were in tatters. The table could no longer stand upright. Song's father found a few bricks to pad the corners of the table. The chairs were also in tatters.
"Brother, after dinner, help me spread the pig manure, and I'll go out to find something."
"What are you looking for? I'm going to help you. It's up to you to deal with the pig manure."
Brother Song really couldn't stand the smell of pig manure, so he excused himself.
"Brother, why don't you go outside and find some wooden boards?"
"Plank? Do you want a fire?"
Song Zhaozhao shook his head: "Look at the tables and chairs in our house. This won't last long. I thought, let's make a set of tables and chairs first."
Seeing how powerful Song Zhaozhao was before, Brother Song didn't question Song Zhaozhao anymore. After breakfast, he went out to look for wooden boards.
Song Zhaozhao continued to ferment pig manure at home.
Song's father and Song's mother were also doing farm work at home.
When everything was so normal, the eldest aunt of the Song family came again.
"Hey, what does all this smell like? Your family has fallen into a dung trap!"
Chen still didn't restrain himself at all, and became more and more arrogant.
"Sister-in-law, why are you here?"
"Sister, do it first, I'll go pour the water."
