Chapter 166 Seeing you for three days, like nine years old!
"Why."
Xie Sixian suddenly sighed.
Su Yaxian looked up and said, "At a young age, what do you do when you always sigh?"
Xie Sixian shook her little head and said quietly: "I haven't seen it for a day, like three years old, but I haven't seen it for three days, like nine years old!"
Su Yaxian couldn't help but be amused. She put down the book in her hand and turned to look at her little daughter: "Does Xianxian miss her elder brother?"
Xie Sixian raised her little face and said seriously: "Mom, my elder brother has already become a family. I am a girl's family. I can't always think about him. I am thinking of my sister-in-law!"
Su Yaxian couldn't help laughing, raised her hand and pointed her forehead: "I think you are thinking about your sister-in-law's good skills."
"No! I just miss my sister-in-law. Mom, we are all gone. What if the eldest brother bullies my sister-in-law and is alone?"
Su Yaxian was speechless and turned her eyes to Xie Dai.
Xie Dai seemed to have some awareness, looked up and said, "Even if you are at home, you can't help your sister-in-law."
“…”
Xie Sixian turned her head and said, "But I can help my sister-in-law complain to her father and mother!"
"You might as well talk to your second brother more when you have nothing to do. This time, you have to choose a wife for him. If you choose a second sister-in-law who you don't like or you..."
Xie Sixian suddenly panicked, yes, why did she forget it!
Finding a wife for the second brother is the most important thing to go out this time!
She must help her second brother choose a good wife who is as beautiful as her sister-in-law and good at telling stories and making delicious food!
"Dad, mom, I'm going to the carriage behind and discuss it with my brothers!"
"Go."
Su Yaxian couldn't help but feel speechless as Xie Dai sent his daughter away in a few words.
"Don't always make fun of your own children."
Xie Dai said: "It will be better for me to fool them than if they are fooled by others in the future."
Su Yaxian said angrily: "Skewer!"
Xie Dai stretched out his long arm and hugged Su Yaxian in his arms: "When she is not here, you can sleep for a while, otherwise you will have a headache again."
"I feel that my headache seems to be cured, and I never felt pain once when I went out."
Xie Dai only thought this was Su Yaxian's words of comfort, and did not take it to her heart. He just followed her: "Then you need to take a good rest so that you can recover as soon as possible."
Su Yaxian smiled, leaned against him, closed her eyes, and whispered: "I miss Le'er a little too."
"It'll be fine in two days."
"how?"
"When I get to the place, my wife won't have time to think of anyone."
...
After wandering around the cotton fields and seedling fields, seeing that it was still early, Qi Lele and others went to pick some mulberry leaves for later use.
When I got home, it was time to feed mulberry leaves again.
Raising silkworms is a meticulous job of hiding people. It is essential to feed four times a day, picking mulberry leaves and cleaning drying tools. The work of a day has been spent unconsciously.
"Doesn't there be a lot of mulberry leaves left in these two silkworm plaques?"
Qi Lele looked over after hearing this: "It's indeed a little more left than the other silkworm plaques."
Su Yi hurriedly said: "I only expanded their seats in the morning. Could it be that I had fed too much mulberry leaves?"
"Did you feed it in the usual proportions?"
Su Yi said without hesitation: "Yes! I dare not say that it is true, at least it is almost the same."
"That probably isn't feeding too much." Qi Lele pondered: "It may be that he is going to fall asleep and molt."
"They have only hatched for a few days, and they are about to shed?"
Qi Lele smiled and said, "It only takes a month to shed silkworms from hatching to cocoons. After all, they do need to molt once every few days. Ant silkworms usually start molting their skin for the first time in about three to five days."
Su Yi looked like he was taught.
Xie Zian said lightly: "There are books on raising silkworms in the study."
Su Yi was stunned and then said, "I'll go find it later."
Xie Zi'an nodded.
Xie Zian was speechless: Is he disliked by the eldest son?
Qi Lele looked carefully at the ant silkworms on the two silkworm plaques and found that the feeding speed of many ant silkworms on it was obviously slower, and it seemed that they were going to fall asleep.
"We will probably work harder today. Let's divide the ant silkworms again and put the ant silkworms whose food has slowed down into a silkworm plaque. Try to let them molt at the same time, otherwise it will be difficult to deal with."
"good."
This is a troublesome thing, but in order to better manage later, this step must be taken.
Qi Lele was a little annoyed. He hadn't raised silkworms for many years and had forgotten this.
In fact, when silkworm eggs hatched, the ant silkworms hatched at the same time should be put together, instead of breaking them all and expanding their seats randomly. This has led to the fact that the mulberry leaves on the top of a silkworm plaque are eaten up, and half of them are left, which is obviously uneven.
Xie Zian seemed to see her thoughts and said, "We are all raising silkworms for the first time, so we will inevitably have some omissions. Just spend more time."
Qi Lele nodded: "Well, let's write down all these things, and it will be experience in the future."
Xie Zian replied with a smile: "Okay, I'll remember."
The three of them carefully sorted out the ant silkworms. The two silkworm plaques that were about to fall asleep were less mulberry leaves, and the others continued to be as much as before.
In addition, Qi Lele also took some lime and sprinkled some on the ant silkworms on the two silkworm plaques.
"What's the purpose?"
Qi Lele said: "This is to disinfect and prevent diseases."
Xie Zi'an nodded: "So that's it."
"This silkworm frame is not enough."
Su Yi said: "This morning, the craftsman sent three more over, and said that if it was not enough, just say it to them. I saw that it was enough, so I didn't mention it."
"That's good."
When he came out of the silkworm room, it was already half past afternoon. Qi Lele was thinking about transplanting cotton and went to the other side of the field without stopping.
Chang Qingsheng had already prepared everything, and Qi Baojiang was already waiting there, and was curiously looking at the bowl making tool.
The lower part of the bowl making tool is a tin cylinder like a bowl, and a cross bar is connected to it, which looks strange.
"Just what? It's quite handy, it's made of iron, right?"
Chang Qingsheng said: "It is a bowl making tool used to transplant cotton seedlings. How to use it depends on how it is used until the eldest son and the others come."
Qi Baojiang pointed to the distance: "Isn't this coming?"
Not long after, Qi Baojiang realized the wonderful use of this bowl making tool.
Qi Lele carefully put the cotton seedlings into the iron cylinder, then supported them with both hands on the crossbar above and pressed them down hard, inserting the entire cylinder into the soil, and then pulling out the cylinder, so that the cotton seedlings and the surrounding soil will be wrapped out of the ground and then planted into the cotton field.
Not to mention Qi Baojiang, even Chang Qingsheng had never seen such a way of seedlings, and he couldn't help but secretly amazement.
If Chang Qingyun had been here, I would probably be unable to help but circling around Qi Lele again.
