Chapter 132 A surprising discovery
Li Lanzhen took a look at the ten acres of land.
Last time she told the system that after this crop of land was harvested, only one acre of land would be left to grow vegetables, and the rest would be planted with grains, mainly sweet potatoes, potatoes, and corn.
As for rice and wheat, she wanted to wait until after the New Year to plant a few more crops, save the seeds, and plant them in the fields.
After coming here, she thought that it was impossible to grow rice in Forget-Your-Trouble Valley.
The lake was too far away from their fields.
Now, the water in the pool where the waterfall falls is fully sufficient to grow rice.
Li Lanzhen was thinking about planting rice next spring. She really wanted to eat white rice!
This time, we will plant more sweet potatoes and potatoes in the space and save enough seeds so that we can plant them on a large scale in Forget-Your-Trouble Valley next year.
The last time we handed over grain seeds to the old village chief, there were a lot of wheat seeds among them.
After looking at the ten acres of fields, Li Lanzhen came to the foot of the mountain. The chickens, ducks and geese had already bred a lot. She planned to go up the mountain in two days to bring out a batch of chickens, ducks and geese.
There are already more than a dozen lambs in the space, and a batch of them are also pulled out.
Some of the chickens, ducks, geese and lambs were given to the villagers, and the rest were kept at home.
The number of chickens seems to be quite large. If every family raises one or two, it may not be possible to buy them with silver. However, we can ask Han Minghai to record them and exchange them for labor.
In this way, they have enough manpower to build houses and yards, which greatly reduces the time of construction.
It would be better for several families to move into their new homes as soon as possible. Living in caves for a long time is not suitable.
There are no eggs in the chicken, duck and goose pens. I guess the system has put them all away in the storage room.
Looking up at the mountain, there were already quite a few trees. These were the good saplings she saw when she went up the mountain and she threw them into the space and planted them on the mountain.
She walked slowly into the courtyard.
Out of habit, he scooped up more than half a bowl of spiritual spring water, drank it up in gulps, and wiped his mouth dry.
When I came to the storage room, I saw chicken, duck and goose eggs, a lot of which were stored, as well as wheat, rice, corn cobs and various vegetables that had just been harvested.
In this space, wheat, rice and corn cannot be processed into flour, rice and cornmeal that can be eaten directly.
It can only be taken out and ground into flour on a stone mill.
There are now two large millstones in the village, which makes it very convenient to grind grain.
The two large stone mills were carved by Li Erhan and Li Xishui, who carried stones from the mountain.
There are two small stone mills in Li Lanzhen's kitchen, which are used to grind beans to make soy milk and tofu.
Several families in the village also came to Lin Erhan to make small stone mills.
Li Lanzhen picked out a sack of sweet potatoes, a sack of potatoes, a sack of corn cobs, several baskets of vegetables, and a bag of pumpkins, and waved her hand to place them on the ground of the cave where she lived.
Tomorrow morning, let Han Minghai and the others move it out and put it on the food shelf in the cave.
Under Li Lanzhen's training, Xue Nizi, Tonghua and Li Sanya have learned how to make many kinds of food with sweet potatoes and potatoes.
Sweet potato flour cakes, sweet potato black dough dumplings, mashed potatoes, potato chips, potato dumplings, shredded potatoes...
If these foods are mixed with some wild vegetables, they will become meals with a very delicious taste.
Both adults and children like to eat it.
Not to mention, Li Lanzhen added spiritual spring water into it.
At present, it seems that the health of the family is improving.
Even Zhang Yu Niang's physical fitness and spirit are much better than those of the other three pregnant women in the village.
Li Lanzhen left the space, lay on the kang, and fell asleep while thinking about many things.
She gets up early in the morning.
When I came out of the cave and was about to wash up, I saw Su Chen standing under a big tree in front of me, facing the entrance of Wangyou Valley, with one hand behind his back and the other hand in front of his chest, head held high, his back straight, like a thriving young pine tree.
It was obvious that the child was worried. He found out on the mountain that the man in black was most likely looking for him and his sister, but he didn't mention it when he came back.
Li Lanzhen still felt a little uncomfortable, but think about it, a six-year-old child with a two-year-old sister, who knows what kind of separation and death he has experienced with his relatives, who can he trust?
I had no choice but to keep silent about the past. Perhaps this was the only way to protect myself and my sister!
After figuring all this out, she felt relieved and continued to treat them as her own grandchildren, loving and caring for them!
She wanted to call Su Chen over and tell him about the men in black looking for the two children, but she was afraid of frightening them. What should she do if they ran out of the Forget-Your-Trouble Valley again?
Li Lanzhen couldn't bear it. She had accepted them from the beginning, so she should just keep accepting them.
Whether it is a blessing or a disaster, it is inevitable!
Perhaps Su Chen felt someone was looking at him from behind, so he turned around and saw Li Lanzhen.
With a grin, he said, "Good morning, Grandma Lanzhen!"
Li Lanzhen looked at the rising sunlight shining on his face, and his smile became even brighter!
She also walked over with a smile, raised her hand to touch his head, and said lovingly.
"Su Chen, why are you up so early? Children need to get more sleep. Their bodies grow while they sleep. If they don't get enough sleep, they won't grow taller!"
Suzhou opened his eyes wide and looked at Li Lanzhen.
"Really? Grandma Lanzhen?!"
"Really? So we, Su Chen, are still children. Don't think too much. Eat well, sleep well, and play happily, okay?
Leave all the troubles to the adults. If you care about Grandma Lanzhen, tell her about your sadness. Don't worry, Grandma Lanzhen will protect you and your sister."
Su Chen opened his mouth but didn't say anything.
Li Lanzhen squatted down, looked into his eyes and said.
"Su Chen, since grandma has brought you and your sister to Wangyou and brought you to escape the famine together, she will treat you as family.
So don't be afraid of anything. If you have any difficulties, grandma and I, the uncles, will take care of them for you. Don't worry, you and your sister will be safe. Just live and grow up well in Forget-Your-Sorrow Valley!"
After hearing what Li Lanzhen said, Su Chen's tears streamed down. He bit his lips tightly, his lips still trembling, and he threw himself into Li Lanzhen's arms.
"Wow" burst into tears.
Li Lanzhen hugged him lovingly and patted his back again and again!
Cry, child! I don't know what kind of suffering and fear your little shoulders have borne!
After a while, Su Chen wiped his eyes and looked at Li Lanzhen with red eyes.
"Grandma, from today on, you are my real grandma!
Because, in this world, I have no relatives anymore, they, they are all dead!
My sister is not my biological sister, she is..."
Before Su Chen could finish his words, he was interrupted by a group of noisy children who had just returned from morning exercise.
Li Lanzhen didn't let him continue talking and took his hand to wash up.
It’s better not to say it. Don’t reveal the scar hidden in your heart!
Just know that this is also a miserable child, so just love him well and let him grow up!
If anyone dares to enter Wangyou Valley and take the two children away, Li Lanzhen will protect them as if they were her own life! !
"Mother~~mother~"
Li Lanzhen, who was about to go back to the kitchen after washing up, stopped when she was shouted at twice.
She knew it was their second son, the reckless and loud-mouthed one, without even turning around!
"Mom, go and have a look. The crops on that acre of land in the village have been harvested by themselves and are neatly laid out at the edge of the field!
The grains were packed in large sacks, and the vegetables were packed in baskets, and they were sorted into different categories. Don’t you think it’s weird?!
Mother, what is even more strange is that there are so many sweet potatoes, potatoes and corn planted in the fields again, and there are only a few vegetables this time."
Li Lanzhen was shocked when she heard this!
