Chapter 532 Picking seeds

   Waiting for everyone to get home, it was already raining heavily.

  Fortunately, there was still unused plastic film in the car. Su Anying got out of the car, holding a plastic sheet with both hands, covering the three children under it, and protecting them into the hospital.

  Xu Shiyan couldn't take care of those things anymore, and hurriedly carried the sack and dumped it in the yard.

  By the time he carried the three sacks of ginseng seeds into the house, most of his body was already wet.

   Zhou Guilan saw it, and quickly handed over a dry towel to let her son wipe his head and face, and then urged Xu Shiyan to go back to the room to change clothes.

   Everyone came back early, and there was still some time before dinner.

   It happened that there was hot water in the pot, so Zhou Guilan turned on hot water, heated up the kitchen, and asked the children to take a bath and change their clothes.

  School starts tomorrow, and I have been going up the mountain for the past two days, especially since today, the three children are all disgraced.

  How can I go back to school like this? I have to wash and tidy up.

  The three children took a bath and changed into clean clothes.

  Over there, Chu Xuanhuai also cooked some **** soup for Xu Shiyan, his wife and three children to drink, so as not to catch a cold.

   After taking a hot bath and drinking some warm **** soup, my whole body feels warm.

  The three children were all blushing, sitting on the Kang and laughing.

   "Okay, okay, don't make a fuss, let's eat quickly, after dinner, you go to bed early, and you have class tomorrow.

  Yuanyuan, you have finished your homework, right? "

  Su Anying came into the room with the meal in hand, seeing the children making a fuss together, she greeted them to eat with a smile.

  Dinner has eggplant stewed potatoes, and loach stewed tofu.

  The loach tofu has some homemade sauce in it, and some chopped chili, which is spicy and delicious.

  The children like it very much. They mix it with rice and eat half a bowl more than usual.

  After dinner, Xu Haiyuan followed Chu Xuanhuai back to the clinic to live, and took a test of the homework he had learned recently.

  Xu Jinping and Yang Haoyu packed their schoolbags, put them all together, previewed the new lesson, and then went to sleep.

  The five-day holiday is over, and on Monday, October 6th, the children return to school.

  Xu Shiyan went to work, while Su Anying went to the market to see if he could catch some goods.

  Xu Chenghou and Zhou Guilan cleaned up the house and began to pick seeds.

  Pick out the ginseng seeds that are taken home, with complete beard and reeds, no water rust, no rotten scars, and good body shape.

   According to the size, it is divided into four levels: the first road, the second road, the third road, and the fourth road.

  The outer skin of corn is also called corn nest.

   Pick the two soft layers inside, soak them in warm water, and then split them into strips.

  The selected ginseng seeds are **** from the beard with corn nests one by one. The corn nests are not knotted, just twist them twice and tuck them in.

  When planting ginseng, just pull off the corn nests from under the beards and place them in the ground one by one.

   Corn nests are easy to rot in the soil, even if you forget to roll them down, or accidentally fall into the soil, it doesn’t matter.

   Unlike the plastic ropes used later, those things will not rot for many years after being put into the soil.

  If you are accidentally tied to the mallet plant, it is easy to strangle the mallet into two knots.

  The picked seeds are packed into sacks or cardboard boxes.

  Whether it is a sack or a cardboard box, it must be covered with plastic film to prevent water loss.

   Pay special attention to protecting the reed head. If the reed head is damaged, the seed will be useless.

  Picking seeds requires not only good eyesight, but also patience.

  Xu Chenghou and his wife put their eating side to the side in the middle of the ground, and spread a plastic sheet on top.

  One of them sat on the edge of the kang, the other sat on a stool, grabbed a pile of seeds from the sack, and picked them one by one.

  Pick them up and put them on the side. No matter which one you have saved up, quickly bundle them up and pack them into boxes.

  It took one morning to go to the market. When Su Anying grabbed enough goods and went home, the old couple picked out a sack.

   "Hey, it's getting late, I have to cook quickly, otherwise the three will be hungry when they get home."

   Zhou Guilan was busy picking seeds at noon, and the two little ones didn't bother themselves to play. Suddenly, it was almost eleven o'clock.

   So I hurried to wash my hands, and set fire to cook. Fortunately, last night's food is still available, so just heat it up.

  Not long after the water in the pot boiled here, the children were heard on the other side.

   "Grandma, is the meal ready? I'm starving to death."

   Sure enough, the children all said this when they entered the door, starving to death.

   "Okay, okay, hurry up and wash your hands, I'll clean up here, let's eat."

  Zhou Guilan laughed when she heard the movement of her grandson and granddaughter, and hurriedly cleaned up the ginseng standing beside her.

  Put the selected ones in the box, and put the plastic cloth in a pocket for the unfinished ones, and put them aside.

   Then I took the broom to sweep the floor and wipe the table, and hurriedly put the food on the table.

  After September 14th, daylight saving time will end, so the children arrive at school at one o'clock in the afternoon and start class at ten o'clock in the afternoon.

  Don't look at the hour, there are a lot of things to do, and I am a little nervous at noon.

  So the food was quickly packed and brought up, and the family sat down to eat.

  Xu Shiyan would not come back at noon, and everyone did not wait for him.

  After lunch, Xu Haiyuan still went to accompany Chu Xuanhuai to write medical records, while Xu Jinping and Yang Haoyu helped pick the seeds.

  The child has good eyesight and quick hands. Not to mention, the two babies work decently, and they can pick out quite a few in a while.

   At 12:55, the three children left home.

   Anyway, it’s close, so there’s no need to run. When the bell rang at one o’clock, I just entered the class, sat down to catch my breath, and the teacher also entered the door.

  In the afternoon, Su Anying was fine, and she was also picking seeds at home. There were only a few things in total, and they would be finished before evening.

  When Xu Shiyan came back in the evening, Su Anying discussed with him that the family should not plant this kind of trouble.

  She planned to go to Ji'an with Huang Shengli and others, and come back with some ginseng.

  In recent years, Fusong has vigorously developed ginseng in various places, and there is a big gap in ginseng seeds.

  If the past years were left behind, Xu Shiyan would still be able to take part in the competition.

  But this year, we cooperated with the Forestry Bureau, and all the extra seeds were distributed to the Forestry Bureau.

  Xu Shiyan can squeeze out a little bit by himself, but Huang Shengli and the others haven't planted any seeds yet.

  Because of the topography of Ji'an and Huanren, the ginseng seeds are in better shape, and there are more ginseng seeds there.

  Su Anying met a few ginseng farmers who came to sell goods in Ji'an in the city, and heard that there are many ginseng seeds for takeaway.

  So Su Anying decided to go out with Huang Shengli and the others, go to Ji'an to collect ginseng seeds and come back.

  In addition to some for home use, some can also be sold outside.

   "I found out, you are getting more and more capable now.

   It's a good idea to go out and flip the seeds. "Xu Shiyan laughed as soon as he heard it.

  This daughter-in-law of his family is really very brainy now.

   "Wait a minute, I'll make a call." After Xu Shiyan finished speaking, he turned and went to make a call.

   "Brother, how many gaps are there in your bureau this year?

  Well, your siblings are planning to go to Ji'an to make some money and come back. Do you need it? Use it together. "

  Xu Shiyan called Guo Shouye.

   Guo Shouye was involved in this matter, the Forestry Bureau has a large cart, how convenient would it be to pull a cart back directly at that time?
