114 A fool is planting flowers

In fact, Li Xianglan’s idea is very simple. The melon seeds taste so good. Eating one of them makes people feel urged to continue eating. I believe they will be very popular when they are sold in the town.
"Mom, melon seeds are so delicious, why do we sell them?" Erya asked at Li Xianglan with her little head tilted her melon seeds.
Li Xianglan was slightly stunned and didn't know how to answer.
"You are stupid. If melon seeds can be sold for money, will our family have a way to make money? My father won't have to go up the mountain to hunt anymore." Da Ya lightly tapped Er Ya's little head with his little hand and taught him a lesson.
Erya scratched her head and smiled foolishly, "It seems to be the same!"
"There is no rush in this matter. The sunflowers we planted will have to wait for a long time to mature. Then we will keep them for themselves to eat. After planting too much, we will sell them!" Niu Dali said with a faint smile.
Erya's little head nodded repeatedly.
Li Xianglan also felt that this matter was too urgent, so she could only take it slowly.
Two days passed.
In the past two days, Erya ran into the vegetable field if she had anything to do, and watered the spiritual herbs from time to time. She was more diligent than Daya who often took care of the spiritual herbs. Niu Dali knew that Erya was clearly taking care of the sunflower without asking.
I don’t know how long this naughty little girl can last.
However, even if Erya is watering once every half an hour, even if it is a spiritual spring, any plant will drown.
Finally, Li Xianglan reminded Erya that this allowed Sunflower to escape the fate of being drowned.
That morning, He Chongda came to Niu Dali's house with some wild vegetables and pork early in the morning and said goodbye to Niu Dali's family.
Niu Dali wanted He Chongda to enter the house, but He Chongda refused.
"Uncle Dali, Aunt Lan, I'm going to go to the county town today, so I won't say much. This is the wild vegetable pork my mother asked me to bring to you."
As he said that, He Chongda handed the wild vegetable and pork to Li Xianglan.
"Well, your family is not rich, hurry up and take it back and leave it to your younger brothers for food." Li Xianglan gave in.
"Aunt Lan, you must accept this. If Uncle Dali had not given me the errands to the yamen, I would not have had such good luck as a yamen." He Chongdao.
Niu Dali said: "Xianglan, this is a great thing for his family, so our family will accept it."
He Chongda nodded, "Yes, Aunt Lan! This is not a valuable thing."
Seeing this, Li Xianglan had to accept the wild vegetables and pork brought by He Chongda.
"Brother Chong, are you going to be a high-ranking official in the county town?" Erya said with joy with a little face.
"I don't know what errands to do in the yamen!" He Chongda scratched his head and said embarrassedly.
"Brother Chong, don't pay attention to her. She always speaks without restraint. You have to worry about going to the county, because the county is different from our village." Da Ya reminded.
He Chongda looked at Da Ya. Da Ya was wearing a plain white dress at this moment, and Wen Wen stood there quietly, but she gave people a sense of outspokenness.
With just a glance, he immediately lowered his head and thanked him: "Thank you, Sister Da Ya!"
Niu Dali patted He Chongda on the shoulder, "Do it well, don't let my uncle down."
"I can do it, Uncle Dali. I won't let you down!" He Chongda couldn't help but flush with a serious face, and said with a serious face.
Niu Dali was a little strange.
But just saying a word of encouragement, why is so excited?
After talking for a while, He Chongda said goodbye and left.
Li Xianglan looked at He Chongda's back and sighed: "With this child, the He family finally got proud."
Niu Dali nodded. If the He family had not protected Da Ya and Er Ya several times, he would not have recommended He Chongda to work as a yamen. It was said that everything was also fate of the He family.
At noon, after lunch, Niu Dali and Erya came to the vegetable field and looked at the sunflowers growing tender seedlings. The tender sunflowers were densely packed in a small vegetable field, looking lush.
Two puppies were waving their tails behind them.
"Are you planted a little too much?" At that time, because there were a lot of sprouting sunflower seeds and the vegetable field was not big enough, Niu Dali directly sprinkled the sprouting sunflower seeds into the vegetable field.
"Not much, no more!" Erya shook her head repeatedly, for fear that Niu Dali would give away the sunflowers in the vegetable field.
"Dad doesn't think it's a bit too much, but he just thinks that many sunflowers cannot grow like this." Niu Dali explained
"What should I do?" Erya said anxiously with a little face.
Niu Dali thought for a while, "Dad still thinks to plant some in the dryland."
"Does our family have dry land?" Erya asked.
"What are you thinking about with your head? When we split up, didn't we divide the two pieces of dry land?" Niu Dali touched Erya's little head and smiled.
"I almost forgot!" Erya said cutely, sticking out her tongue.
After making it, Niu Dali brought a bamboo basket and carefully dug out the tender sunflower seedlings in the vegetable field with Erya.
Seeing the father and daughter working in the vegetable field, Li Xianglan shook her head and continued to do embroidery work in the house, while Da Ya was practicing calligraphy aside.
After digging for a while, Niu Dali felt that it was almost the same, so he told Erya not to dig anymore. Thinking of the two dry lands that no one had cultivated for a long time, I was afraid that the weeds would grow taller than people.
"Sister, my dad and I go out to farm. Do you want to go together?" Erya shouted to Daya in the room.
Daya looked at Li Xianglan.
Li Xianglan shook her head, "If you want to go, go."
The big girl immediately smiled, got up and took a small step and went out of the house.
"Xianglan, we're leaving!" Niu Dali carried a hoe on his shoulders and a full of tender sunflowers in one hand. After saying to Li Xianglan, he took Da Ya and Er Ya out.
Xiao Huang and Xiao Hei followed closely behind the father and daughter.
Sure enough, as I imagined, I came to the two dry lands I had obtained when I split up my family, and saw a large area of ​​weeds that were taller than humans, as well as grasshoppers that were as big as palms jumped.
Niu Dali was stunned.
This weeding is a difficult task.
This was the time when the sun was the strongest. Niu Dali was reluctant to let Da Ya and Er Ya go to the ground to weed and let them rest under the tree beside him, but Da Ya and Er Ya disagreed.
In the past, when I was at Lao Niu's house, I had never done any rough and tiring work. Now I am just weeding and tiring, not to mention that I have never done it before.
Niu Dali had no choice but to let Daya and Erya pull out the weeds together.
However, he did not intend to remove all the two pieces of weeds from dry land within one day. He just needed to remove the weeds that could plant tender sunflower seedlings, and the remaining weeds would be processed later if they had time.
Because of taking the low-level bone-hardening pill and drinking Lingquan frequently, the physical constitution of Daya and Erya are obviously different from other children. Even if they are a few years older than Daya, the physical strength of the children who are a few years older than Erya is probably not as strong as that of them.
When the weeds were removed by one quarter, Da Ya and Er Ya didn't even breathe, but the weather was too hot and they were just sweating.
After removing the weeds, Niu Dali asked Daya and Erya to rest under the tree. He picked up the hoe and began to loosen the soil.
Many passers-by saw this scene and smiled and said, "Da Li, you are finally going to plant this place, and I thought you had forgotten it. What kind of vegetables are you going to grow!?"
"If you don't grow vegetables, I'm going to grow flowers!" Niu Dali replied.
"What flower?" the villager was stunned.
"A better-looking flower."
Anyway, sooner or later, the villagers will see sunflowers, so he might as well say it directly.
"That's too wasteful. I'm not growing orders, but growing flowers instead of growing them?" Some villagers shook their heads and sighed.
Niu Dali didn't explain much, so he buried his head in loosening the soil.
In this way, Niu Dali's planting flowers in the field spread wildly. Some people were puzzled and curious. Although they could not grow crops in dry land, they could still grow some vegetables. Even if they couldn't finish them, they could still sell them to the town for money.
But more people looked at Niu Dali as if he was watching the show.
Especially the Qian family of the old Niu family, Zhang said to everyone that there was a fool in the village who did not plant crops or flowers if he had land.
