Chapter 251 Dog Sledding
Shen Nanzhi doesn't hold grudges and doesn't like the cold war. If there is something, just say it out loud, and it will be over after it is resolved. If you keep getting angry, you will only make yourself unhappy.
This personality is good or bad, she is heartless, she lives a happy life and has made many friends, who all like her personality and it is not tiring to get along with her.
But not everyone is like her. Shen Huai'en is obviously a stingy person. After a night, he is still angry. He doesn't want to see her heartless look, for fear of getting angry to death.
Before Shen Nanzhi had the chance to tease him, the aunts in the village came to her. Some wanted to help look after the sauerkraut, some wanted to grow mushrooms, and some wanted to plant more vegetables. They all asked her for advice.
Shen Nanzhi went to Shen Qingshan's house to have breakfast. Shen Bo'niang is now like the women's director of the village. She has to coordinate everything and is very busy.
In the past, winter was not so busy. At most, the women in the village would sit together to sew shoe soles, do some needlework, chat with each other, and do matchmaking. They would take advantage of the slack season to hold a few weddings.
I've been busy making money and improving my life this year, and I don't have time to pick on my wife.
Shen Nanzhi became familiar with everyone, greeted everyone one by one, and after dinner, he started to solve their problems door to door.
If you want to grow vegetables on a large scale, you can build a ground fire, cover it with fertile soil, and then try to grow vegetables.
If there is no spare room, you can create a space on the kang in the kitchen to grow bean sprouts, which can improve the food.
Hard-working farmers have countless kinds of life wisdom. Shen Nanzhi only needs to give them some inspiration, and they can draw inferences from it and do very well.
When it comes to mushroom cultivation, most people are unsure. Is this thing so easy to grow?
Shen Bo Niang took the lead. She crushed corn cobs, mixed them with some sawdust, disinfected them with lime water to kill the bacteria inside, then added mycelium, placed them in the house, sprayed water at regular intervals and in fixed quantities, and occasionally added the nutrient solution prepared by Shen Nanzhi, which was actually fertilizer.
The first ones planted were black fungus, white fungus, oyster mushroom and shiitake mushroom, which are more common and easier to sell.
Then it’s just a matter of waiting. If Shen Bo Niang can grow mushrooms, it will definitely boost the enthusiasm of the whole village.
The price of mushrooms in this era was very high. They were usually picked in the wild, made into dried goods, and purchased from the Northeast region. Only wealthy families could afford them.
What Yushu Village produces now is fresh produce, which is definitely in short supply and can be sold at a high price.
Shen Nanzhi was busy all day and didn't have time to care about Shen Huai'en's mood. He had dinner at Shen Qingshan's house in the evening. When he returned home, it was dark and he didn't see any trace of Shen Huai'en.
"What about people?"
You won’t get angry and run away from home, right?
Shen Nanzhi was both angry and amused, and she also disagreed with his behavior. She didn't like it when an adult still played this kind of thing. It was too childish.
She is looking for a responsible man to share the pressure with her, rather than raising a younger brother, or even a son, and taking the trouble to coax and pamper him, which is too tiring.
After lighting the candle, she saw a note on the table. It was a message from Shen Huai'en. It turned out that he had gone into the city. Liao Bao's family sent a letter asking her to deal with something. Shen Huai'en went there in her place and would not be back at night. He told Shen Nanzhi not to worry and to go to bed early.
This is not bad. Shen Nanzhi is in a better mood. He is sensible.
The room was warm and the kang was heated. Xu Li came to clean up. Besides taking care of the children, she had to take care of her. Shen Nanzhi always said it was not necessary, but Xu Li was happy to do it.
Because of Shen Nanzhi, Xu Li has the good life she has now. She eats well, is in a good mood, and is getting younger and younger.
In fact, she is not very old, only twenty-five or twenty-six years old, but the pressure of life made her look old before, and she even had white hair. Now she has recovered and looks like a grown-up girl. Chen Hu also likes her, and the couple has a good relationship.
Shen Nanzhi entered the space and started working as usual. She also planted a lot of small green vegetables so that she could sell them along with the vegetables in the village and make some money.
Mushrooms are also cultivated on a large scale. They grow very fast. Oyster mushrooms can mature in about half a month, and a crop can be harvested in at most one month.
The time flow rate in this space is ten times faster, so the harvest can be made in three days. Shen Nanzhi has dried them all, and the dried goods can be sold for a large sum of money.
After a busy night, she got up after a good rest. Shen Huai'en had not come back yet, so she planned to go to the county town to take a look.
Although the heavy snow has stopped, the road to the county town is not easy to travel. No one has cleared the official road, and the horses cannot be used. The snow in the village is one meter thick, and the snow on the official road is conceivable. Will Shen Huaien get into trouble?
The more Shen Nanzhi thought about it, the more worried he became. He put on his clothes and prepared to go into the city.
Shen Qingshan was worried about her going out alone. After all, she was a girl, and if something happened, she wouldn't even have anyone to pass on the message.
Chen Hu said, "I'll find two people to accompany Nan Zhi into the city."
Shen Nanzhi was confident that he would be fine, but he didn't want everyone to worry, so he thought for a while and said, "It's better to sharpen the knife than to cut wood. Let's make a plow and find a few dogs to pull us into the city."
"Use dogs to pull it? Why not use mules?"
Shen Qingshan felt that she was wrong. How could a dog be used to pull people?
"The snow is too deep. Only dogs can do it. I've done it and everyone will understand once they see it."
The plow had no wheels, so it was done very quickly. Shen Nanzhi called Xiao Hei, now renamed Dadan, who was a bully among the dogs in the village. He called a few strong dogs, with Dadan in the lead, and they pulled the plow and ran away in a flash.
“Does this thing really work?”
"It's called a sled, and it's suitable for running on snow. Thousands of miles further north, there's snow all year round, and we rely on this to travel."
The three sled dogs were introduced from there. At that time, she disliked the Erha because it was too stupid and caused trouble at home, so she raised Xiao Hei instead.
Shen Nanzhi built a simple shed on the sled. In this weather, the cold wind blowing on the face was really painful.
Chen Hu brought two young men from the village, Shen Nanzhi controlled the sled, waved the whip, and Xiao Hei led the way, running very hard.
"Let's go!"
Shen Nanzhi waved behind him, asking everyone to go back, and in the blink of an eye he ran a long distance away, even faster than a carriage.
Shen Qingshan didn't know whether to laugh or cry: "Where does this kid come up with so many ideas?"
"Isn't it? But fortunately she is here, otherwise I don't know how many people would have died this winter."
"Thanks to the Jiang family's divorce, Nan Zhi returned to our village and became our village's treasure. The people in the neighboring village must be mad as hell."
"Who says it's not true? Nan Zhi also came to her senses after the divorce. Divorce is good. So, if a girl is not living well, she can divorce and go back to her parents' home. Maybe her life will be better."
"That's right. Don't think that you have to work like a slave for your husband's family after you get married. They are all our children. If things don't go well for them, they can come back. There is no need to swallow your anger. Girls in our village should not be wronged like this."
