Chapter 99 Hard work

Others in the village also saw Yang Dacui and Shen Yunxi taking their families to reclaim wasteland, but they were not interested. Now each family has been allocated several acres of land, which is enough for them to work.

In addition, they have no money to buy seeds. If the land they cultivated is not cultivated, it will still become wasteland.

Besides, many people are too hungry and want to rest.

Older people think that Yang Dacui and Shen Yunxi are very hardworking, but some people think that they are too stupid and will cause trouble for themselves. They can obviously rest!

However, what these people think is not important to Shen Yunxi.

Now she just needs to farm the land to make money and build a house.

They walked a long way, passing through uncultivated hillsides, and then went to cultivate further hillsides.

There are no springs on this hillside, so paddy fields cannot be developed, but dry fields can be developed. It just suits the needs of Shen Yunxi. After comparison, we decided to open up wasteland here immediately.

Yang Dacui and his daughter-in-law were cutting grass with sickles in front and clearing wild vegetables on the hillside.

Tian Qiaoling led the cow in front, and Shen Yunxi was very strong. She held an iron plow behind and walked forward step by step with difficulty.

Tian Junling picked out various grass roots from the soil behind her and threw them aside.

Yang Dacui's two sons took shovels and began to plan the soil and turn it into terraces. They had been doing this for more than half a month and were very skilled.

Although there are few people, everyone is very hardworking and diligent.

One afternoon, when there was only one cow, they literally cleared half an acre of land.

Several people were too tired and sat on the ground to rest. Shen Yunxi looked at the open space and said with a smile: "As soon as I saw this open space, I felt very happy. With a piece of land, I can sow seeds and harvest in autumn."

Yang Dacui also smiled, "Yes, having a field makes me feel at ease. No matter whether we can do it or not, we should work hard. Some people say that we are stupid, the Youqing family, just listen and don't care. Those people It’s very lazy, we can’t be lazy. How can we live a good life if we are lazy?”

"I don't care about that." Shen Yunxi smiled and said, "Auntie, let's continue tomorrow. After ten days of hard work, we can open this hillside and own more land. What a good thing!"

Yes, Yang Dacui said with a smile: "Second child, third child, you are very strong. Hurry up and tie up the grass we cut and take it back."

Shen Yunxi was very curious: "Auntie, what are you doing with these grasses? We have no shortage of firewood here, so there is no need to burn these, right?"

Yang Dacui explained with a smile: "Take the grass back, dry it in the sun, make it into small pieces, and make solid adobe bricks in the mud, which can be used to build a house."

Shen Yunxi remembers that in the former Lihua Village, there were not many people living in tile-roofed houses, but mostly mud houses. "They can still be used like this."

"Then let the three brothers help you make adobe bricks, and let's build a house together." Yang Dacui said with a smile: "After the house is built and the crops are harvested, we can completely settle here."

It was getting dark, the old cow was carrying weeds, and the others were also carrying bundles of grass.

When I came back, it was already dark.

Sister-in-law Zheng Guizhen and Tian Daniu have returned. Tian Daniu was roasting two hares on the fire. When he saw Shen Yunxi coming back, he shouted: "Mom, my eldest aunt and I caught three hares."

Shen Yunxi was surprised and praised: "You are really awesome. Thank you for your hard work."

She also wants to eat meat.

Zheng Guizhen handed Yang Dacui another skinned rabbit: "Aunt, it's hot, so there's no need to put the meat away. You can take it back and bake it."

Yang Dacui, her two sons and daughter-in-law also want to eat, but they cannot accept something as valuable as rabbit meat. "Leave it for the children. It's too expensive."
