Chapter 209 Si Ningning in two time and space(1/2)
Whenever he saw plants like windmill jasmine, honeysuckle, golden cherry, etc. along the way, Si Ningning would dig out one or two at the edge and put them into the space.
Later, when she came to the creek, Si Ningning took off her shoes and socks, rolled up her trouser legs and stepped into the water with a hoe as she walked slowly forward. Some smooth pebbles and some large stones were also taken into the space by her, planning to wait until later.
Arranging the space into the creek can enrich the living environment of aquatic creatures.
Si Ningning searched as she walked, looking carefully along the way, and she actually discovered some things that she had not noticed before, such as Houttuynia cordata, wild amaranth, purslane, etc.
Houttuynia cordata above the surface is called Houttuynia cordata, and the rhizome below the ground is called Zheergen in some places in the south. Many people think the Zheergen tastes magical after being served cold. Si Ningning has tried it before, but she can’t say whether it tastes good or not.
She eats it, but she can't accept the taste very well.
Si Ningning originally did not plan to pick Houttuynia cordata, but considering its medicinal value, Si Ningning dug some anyway.
As for the wild amaranth and purslane, because they are close to the water and the soil on both sides of the forest is fertile, they grow quite well. However, because they have never been picked, the wild amaranth branches and leaves are as long as Si Ningning's thighs.
But the ground has become old and lignified, and most of them are inedible.
Si Ningning picked up the tender tips of the side branches and pinched off half of the frame, then put the sickle against the ground, hooked the tip of the sickle to the bottom of the purslane and cut some space, and then continued to move forward with the hoe.
When they got to the soybean field, Si Ningning went ashore and sat at the head of the field. After drying his feet, he put on his shoes and socks again.
The soybean seeds previously sown in the soybean field have all sprouted. The small and tender main stem has grown about five centimeters high. Two of the three or four leaves at the top can still vaguely see the rudiments of the bean.
After looking at it for a moment, Si Ningning withdrew his gaze and walked towards the forest where he had gone to eat with his hoe in hand.
After finding the Nakomu hydrangea tree, Si Ningning originally planned to search nearby to see if he could find young hydrangeas that could be moved to space for planting.
After searching around and not finding any, Si Ningning thought that hydrangeas could be planted by cuttings, and perhaps wooden hydrangeas could also be planted, so she went under the big wooden hydrangea tree and picked out the ones as thick as a finger, which looked strong and energetic.
From the branches, I quickly cut a few branches with a sickle.
Gathering the branches together and putting them into the space, Si Ningning continued to wander in the forest.
There were a lot of vegetation in the mountains in the south. After wandering in the forest for a while, Si Ningning suddenly heard a dense sound of birds. She wondered if there was a bird's nest nearby. She thought about catching two birds to lose space, but she followed the sound and approached.
Then I discovered that there was no bird's nest, but there were two mulberry trees covered with red and purple mulberries.
The tree isn't that big, it looks like it's two or three meters high. In fact, the main trunk is only a little thicker than Si Ningning's arm.
Si Ningning managed to hook a side branch without any effort, pulled the side branch down, picked up two ripe mulberries and tasted two.
"Well..."
The sweet taste made Si Ningning couldn't help but exclaim.
I don’t know if it’s because it’s purely natural and wild, but these mulberries are much sweeter than what Si Ningning has eaten before, and they are soaked in water. She ate a few more mulberries while staring at her teeth with her tongue, but she still found the sweet taste to be refreshing.
Stunning.
Without hesitation, Si Ningning let go of the branch in his hand, went into the space and took out a stainless steel basin.
The branches were pulled and the branches bounced back. Some of the birds that were pecking at the mulberries were frightened and flew away, while others stood on top of other nearby tree crowns. They called out "chichichiahahah" as if they were shouting at the company.
Ningning screamed, as if she wanted to drive away Si Ningning, who was snatching the fruit from them.
Si Ningning had no idea and concentrated on picking mulberries. In just ten minutes, she picked half of the pot.
These are nothing, there are more falling on the ground, except for the ripe ones that fall naturally, and then the ones that are blown off by the wind, a thick layer, which makes people feel pity when they look at it.
Si Ningning said "tsk tsk" a few times and continued to pick mulberries, picking all the mulberries he could reach. In about forty or fifty minutes, he harvested two large pots full of mulberries.
Si Ningning wasn't tired either, but the forest was airtight and she always felt stuffy.
Seeing that the time was already past 12 noon, Si Ningning simply entered the space with a basin.
Two pots of mulberries were brought into the kitchen, and Si Ningning filled the freezer section of the refrigerator with yogurt. Then she went to the place where supplies were piled outside the villa and dug out the bagged ham for lunch.
She was too lazy to cook, so she cut some ham and diced vegetables. After washing the rice, she poured it into the rice cooker. She added an appropriate amount of salt, chicken essence, and a few drops of sesame oil, then covered the rice cooker and steamed them together.
While waiting for the rice to be cooked, Si Ningning thought about taking care of the eggs, so she went to the backyard to take a look. It happened that the hen was not in the nest. She took a basin from the kitchen, put some soft cloth in it, and put it in.
I put the eggs into a basin in the backyard and took them directly to the room in the villa.
After closing the door, closing the window and drawing the curtains, the light in the room instantly dimmed. Si Ningning turned on the flashlight, recalling what Mrs. Hu had said before, and turned the egg upside down. She held the egg with one hand and placed the other hand across the egg to avoid dazzling the light.
affect the observation results.
Si Ningning originally thought that the fetal heart formed inside the egg would not be obvious in the early stages of hatching, but as soon as the egg came close to the flashlight, she saw a fetal heart the size of a little fingernail inside, as well as bloodshot eyes like spider webs, flickering and beating very vigorously.
At first glance, it looks like he has strong vitality and is healthy.
Mrs. Hu said that the eggs should not be left in the nest for too long, otherwise the loss of temperature will affect the hatching rate.
Si Ningning didn't dare to look at it any longer. After confirming that it was a fertilized egg, she put it back in a separate place in the basin and started taking down another egg to continue looking at it.
A total of fourteen eggs were hatched, four of which were unfertilized, two eggs with weak sperm and low vigor, and the remaining eight were all very active.
Si Ningning took out the four unfertilized eggs and put the two weakly fertilized eggs back into the henhouse with the other eggs.
The chance of hatching from weakly fertilized eggs was low, but when Si Ningning steamed or boiled them and ate them, she really couldn't eat it thinking about the red blood inside.
Just put them in the chicken coop together. If they can hatch, it's good. If they don't, it's a waste.
After adding some rice and water to the backyard, Si Ningning closed the back door, took out his work gloves, put them on, picked up a fruit knife and went outside.
Using a fruit knife to cut diagonal cuts on the branches of the hydrangea, Si Ningning randomly planted cuttings in several places. Golden cherry blossoms and jasmine were also planted randomly, but for those like honeysuckle that can climb vines, Si Ningning chose to plant them in
Planted in a fenced area around the villa.
When she was picking mulberries just now, Si Ningning noticed that there were small mulberry saplings nearby. Thinking that the rice was not ready yet, she stepped out of the space with a hoe and planned to dig up the saplings.
Si Ningning appeared out of thin air, and the birds that flew back to peck at the mulberries were so startled that they flapped their wings and flew up again.
"Chirping" and "chirping", the birds gradually landed on the high branches of other tree trunks, shaking their heads and cursing at Si Ningning. Unfortunately, Si Ningning couldn't understand the birdsong. At this time, she was half-hunched over, "
Hey" or "ooh" while digging the soil attentively, for fear of injuring the main root of the sapling.
The mulberries on those two big mulberry trees grew so well. In addition to the excellent varieties, the fertile land should also be a key factor.
The land in the space is fertile, so it is just right to transplant it. As long as it can survive, not only will she be able to eat it, but the fish in the stream will also be able to eat it.
Si Ningning was thinking in her mind as the hoe in her hand got closer and closer to the roots of the mulberry saplings, and she couldn't help but become more cautious in her movements.
Carefully, and occasionally holding his breath carefully, Si Ningning's back was wet with sweat when a mulberry sapling was completely dug out.
Sitting on the ground with his sleeves rolled up, Si Ningning held the front of his chest with two fingers and shook it to dissipate the heat. After a short rest, he climbed up using the hoe handle. He found two more mulberry saplings around him. After digging them up carefully,
Si Ningning entered the space with a hoe and the three saplings she had just dug.
Si Ningning had a plan to plant mulberry seedlings on one side of the meandering stream in the space.
In the future, when it bears fruit, she can pick and eat it. The overripe ones that cannot be eaten will naturally fall off and fall into the stream, where they will also become a meal for the fish.
Three saplings were scattered and planted by the stream. Although she knew that the space crops would have no impact if they were not watered, Si Ningning was always worried that the saplings would not survive. It was probably for self-comfort that she found a bucket for the saplings that were planted today.
Saplings, flower vines, etc. were all watered with root water.
After finishing this work, Si Ningning transferred the pebbles and big stones that had been scattered in before one by one to the creek.
There was no trace of aquatic plants in the stream that he walked outside before. Si Ningning planned to look back and pay attention to see if he could catch some aquatic plants in the production team's ponds and ditches, or adapt to the waterside and surface.
Growing grass will work too.
She wants to restore the natural ecology of the space creek as much as possible. Only when the aquarium grows in a comfortable environment can it reproduce stably and continuously.
No……
It's not just limited to the creek, it's the entire space.
Si Ningning hopes that it will be alive, with the kind of reincarnation, rather than "fresh" in an abstract sense.
Simply taking root, sprouting, and waiting for it to be picked and consumed can satisfy life, but from other perspectives, the expression of "life" is too monotonous.
Life...
We should continue to strive for self-improvement, never stop, and continue without interruption.
After washing his face by the stream, Si Ningning casually rubbed his sleeves twice before waving his hands and entering the villa.
Originally, he wanted to see if the meal was ready, but when he passed by the living room, he accidentally glanced at the crumpled letter on the small coffee table. Si Ningning paused slightly, and finally turned and walked towards the coffee table.
My emotions have calmed down, and it's almost time to deal with the bad things.
Si Ningning sat upright on the sofa. When she tore open the envelope and saw the familiar fonts on it, her heart still felt a little shaken.
Si Zhennan's handwriting is very similar to Si Ningning's father's handwriting. It can't even be said to be similar, it's almost exactly the same.
Si Ningning thought that since she was fifteen years old, she had hidden her desire for her father's attention so deeply that even she thought she no longer cared about it. But when the memory of Si Ningning from this era emerged,
, her memories surged up uncontrollably.
The momentary inability to control herself that day made Si Ningning know that she still cared...
Very concerned.
If you don't care, you won't want to be good, become better, or be in your father's eyes.
But so what?
People have to look forward in life. If you keep looking back and looking behind you, thinking about unrealistic things, you will not be able to live your life.
What Huo Lang said that day felt right and meaningful to Si Ningning.
Some people like the moon, some people love the stars, no matter which one is better, there will always be someone who makes a different sound.
To be continued...
