Chapter 151
I originally thought I had just stayed in the village for two days, but I didn't expect that this time I stayed in the village for five days.
Although Mr. Ye described the process and precautions of bean sprouting in a very detailed manner, it was because of the too detailed that Qi Gui was unsure. He was always worried about which link was not done properly and led to failure. He had to repeatedly determine the process with Mr. Ye.
After a while, Mr. Ye was confused, so he asked Ye Damin to go back to Houwu Village first. Mr. Ye took Lin Wan and Ye Shen and others to stay in the village for a few more days. It was not until he personally tasted the first batch of mung bean sprouts sent in the village that he was sure that he was safe.
During this period, Ye Shen quietly mentioned the cave with Dad Ye, and Dad Ye was very surprised.
Dad Ye thought about it again and again and decided to ask Qi Gui first which cave on the mountain.
Although Qi Gui has been a village head for more than ten years in this village, he really doesn't know that there is such a cave on the mountain.
So after discussing, the two decided to take Ye Shen and Qi Xiaowu to the scene to see what happened.
The reason for not bringing Lin Wan with me is very simple.
There is a hot spring in the village and cannot be known to more people for the time being. Lin Wan stayed here just to keep Lin Zimo.
Dad Ye and Qi Gui used the excuse of demarcating the area that needed to be reclaimed after the ice was lifted. Qi Xiaowu and Ye Shen each found a reason to ask the two to take them with them.
After some on-site investigation, the result naturally surprised and happy Old Man Ye and Qi Gui. Old Man Ye praised Qi Xiaowu who found the cave. Of course, his decision was the same as Ye Shen, and temporarily sealed the cave mountain.
This time, two old men took it upon themselves, so the disguise at the entrance of the cave was naturally very comprehensive. Those who didn't know that there was this cave in advance would definitely not find there was a cave here, and naturally it would be even more impossible to find the hot springs in the cave.
Both Mr. Ye and Qi Gui were extremely cautious. They also found the small hole as big as a bowl on the top of the cave, and also closed and disguised the small hole.
After this investigation, Ye Shen finally knew why Qi Gui had been in this village for more than ten years but did not find a hot spring here. Because this cave has an extension, the fog produced by the hot spring is emitted from the extension.
However, it is not convenient for the two old men and two children to investigate in depth, so this time I did not investigate in depth.
Hot springs cannot run away, and the Ye family’s current abilities should not be made public, so naturally they are not in a hurry.
After more than one party returned to Sanheyuan from the mountains, Dad Ye and Qi Gui went to the backyard to work on bean sprouts. Lin Wan sent Lin Zimo away and spoke with Ye Shen's head against his head.
Today she was going to the mountain with her, but she couldn't get rid of Lin Zimo, so she had to stay and accompany Lin Zimo.
Seeing Ye Shen come back now, I have to ask about the situation.
"There is no snow in the mountains outside the top of the cave, and even green can be seen in the dead grass. I touched the soil there and it was a little warm. If the land was opened, sister, do you think you can grow vegetables there in winter?" Ye Shen told Lin Wan in detail about the process of this trip, and finally expressed his thoughts.
Lin Wan's eyes lit up and soon darkened again. She had never seen it in person, so she really couldn't answer Ye Shen's question.
No, no, even if she saw it in person, she shouldn't and could not answer this question!
Lin Wan stared at Ye Shen in surprise: "Is it as warm as the warm kang at home?"
Ye Shen shook his head: "How can it be? Of course it is not as good as it is!"
Lin Wan then bulged her cheeks and said blankly: "Then I don't know. I have only tried to grow flowers and vegetables with warm kangs."
Ye Shen was amused by Lin Wan and burst into laughter. He really didn't expect Lin Wan to be so cute. While laughing, he reached out to persuade Lin Wan to pinch her bulging cheeks.
Lin Wan glared at Ye Shen with some anger, and Ye Shen had to repeatedly beg for forgiveness.
Lin Wan was not really angry at first, and after Ye Shen coaxed him a few times, she naturally spared Ye Shen.
During the five days in the village, in addition to teaching Qi Gui's wife and daughter-in-law to produce bean sprouts, Mr. Ye also went to the mountains with Qi Gui several times. Lin Wan found a way to go with her.
After field investigation, Lin Wan felt that the surface temperature near the small hole of the bowl on the top of the mountain was indeed slightly higher as Ye Shen said. Unfortunately, this area is mostly rocky. When I cleared the rocks, I saw only a thin layer of sand, which was too barren.
To use this surface temperature for planting, soil needs to be transported from elsewhere. It is difficult to reclaim. As for whether it is worth reclaiming, Lin Wan finds it difficult to make a conclusion, and it depends on what it cultivates.
If there are conditions in the past life, Lin Wan will definitely make use of this land. It is most suitable to use plastic film to build a shed to plant strawberries and flowers in winter.
But there are too many limitations here, Lin Wan can only express her regret.
After the first batch of bean sprouts came out and Dad Ye tasted them personally, he finally prepared to return to Houwu Village.
This time, it was not only Ye Shen who followed Ye Dad back to Houwu Village, Lin Wan, Lin Zimo and Xiaocao, but also Qi Xiaowu and Qi Dabao's uncle and nephew. They came to Houwu Village as Ye Shen's book boy to study with Ye Shen.
This is not only to prevent Qi Xiaowu from running to the cave when he is idle, but also a reward that Mr. Ye paid to Qi Gui's family.
This time, Mr. Ye had a discussion with Qi Gui about the marriage between Qi Gui and his two daughters. According to Mr. Ye's intention, he directly returned the contract between Qi Gui and his two daughters to Qi Gui, and asked Qi Gui to find a suitable family to handle the marriage between his two daughters.
Qi Gui shook his head and refused.
Although the Qi family is from the northern region, they are not from Qingzhou Prefecture. It is because they can't survive in their hometown. In order to survive and to bury the two elderly people who were suddenly born, Qi Guicai brought his family to Qingzhou Prefecture as slaves.
After the former master bought their family, Qi Gui has been working as the head of the village in this village, and he has known only a limited number of people. His two daughters-in-law are both maids in the original owner's family.
Where can I find a suitable family to marry my daughter now?
He and his wife are both people who love children, and even their daughters are reluctant to let them marry far away. Of course, they hope to find a suitable one in the village or the slaves of the Ye family.
In the village, his family is a slave, and the Ye family has no other slaves at all, so how can they get married to two daughters?
Qi Gui was worried that even if his daughter had lost her slavery, she would still be looked down upon. She would suffer when she got married rashly, so she politely rejected Dad Ye's kindness.
There is no suitable one for the time being, so let's delay it first. Fortunately, Qi Gui's two daughters are not old, so it's okay to stay for another two years.
Qi Gui is still optimistic about the Ye family. Judging from his current development momentum, it will definitely be better in two years. Maybe there will be a suitable candidate at that time.
However, the youngest son Qi Zhenting and Changsun Qi Dabao are Qi Gui's heart problems. These two children are smart and intelligent. They stay in the village and play wildly. In the end, they can only be farmers in the village like their brothers (fathers).
If you can follow the little master, you may have better luck.
Qi Gui gave up his old face and begged for Mr. Ye to agree, and asked the two children to come to Houwu Village together in the name of Shutong.
It is considered to give Qi Zhenting and Qi Dabao a chance to make progress. As for what kind of luck the two of them will have, it depends on the two children themselves.
