Chapter 110 The vegetable fields are growing well
Jun Haoxuan raised the corner of his lips: "Keep it a secret, you will know when the time comes."
Nanfeng rolled his eyes in his heart, nodded, watched his master leave, and then returned to his work.
The west wind and the north wind took turns taking people up the mountain to chop firewood during the day. Since they knew there would be a snowstorm, it would be a good idea to store more firewood.
Also, Master is planning to open a furniture factory, so he will need a lot of wood.
They have to help select some suitable ones and store them so that they can be used after drying.
At night, the person who went up the mountain during the day would rest first, and the other person would go to the master's house to keep watch in the first half of the night.

During this period, Jin Hailin, who was in charge of the construction project, had gotten to know Nanfeng very well.
Commander Jin promised Nanfeng:
"I will explain clearly to my men and ask them to prepare as soon as possible so as not to delay the construction progress."
In Jin Hailin's opinion, although Nanfeng is a bit strong and overbearing, he is very patient with himself and his subordinates, and usually shares the work.
Compared to their master, Nanfeng can be considered merciful.
So Commander Jin became more respectful to Nanfeng.
"Commander Jin, you are too polite. It was I who proposed to do this. I would feel deeply guilty if it delayed my work." Nanfeng said modestly.
Nanfeng was not worried about the construction period. He believed that Jin Hailin and others would not slack off.
Many projects are in full swing.
In the blink of an eye, it was December 9th.
The vegetable fields in front of Chen Qingxin's house are lush and green, a vibrant scene.
In the radish field, white radishes, green radishes, and purple radishes all poked out of the ground mischievously.
They stick out their round bellies, as if showing people their fruitful results.
The cabbage leaves are emerald green, wrapping the firm heart layer by layer, like a blooming flower.
Cabbages are like little green balls, round and cute.
Celery and coriander exude a unique aroma. They sway gently in the breeze, as if telling people that this is the source of delicious food.
The carrots are brightly colored and attractive, with red rhizomes buried deep in the soil, waiting to be picked.
The lettuce is like a green ocean, with leaves that are so fresh and tender that people can't help but want to take a bite.
Every kind of vegetable in the vegetable field is growing well. They are not only the result of the family’s hard work, but also a gift from nature.
Looking at this prosperous scene, one can't help but look forward to the future harvest.
Villagers came in groups to visit and admired God for giving Chen Qingxin's family such fertile land.
Chen Li spent one hour every day teaching the two children to read, and spent the rest of the time busy in the fields.
She feels that this kind of life is very fulfilling. She can see the seedlings in the fields change every day, which gives her a special sense of accomplishment.
In fact, there is really nothing to do in the fields for the time being.
What is strange is that there is not a single weed in the vegetable garden that is irrigated with the mountain spring water in the space.
"Mom, we can cut some leeks and stir-fry them." Chen Qingxin forgot to buy a sickle. He had never farmed much before, so he naturally didn't think of buying one.
When Nanny Han saw her cutting leeks with a kitchen knife, she hurried over to help:
"Master, this kind of thing can be done by me, why do you need to do it yourself?"
After preparing a pot of boiling water, Nanny Yang also came over to help.
Chen Qingying and Chen Qingwu now spend one hour every day learning to read and write, and the rest of the time is free play time.
Seeing that the vegetables I had witnessed growing could now be harvested, I was very curious.
Chen Qingwu picked up a leek and stuffed it into his mouth: "Sister, leeks are so sweet!"
After he finished speaking, he ate another one.
"Miss, is it okay for the young master to eat this raw?" Madam Yang asked with a puzzled look on her face, and she quickly moved the basket away.
"I also want to taste the flavor of leeks, hehe!" Chen Qingying grinned and held a leek in her mouth.
Chen Li was no longer calm: "Xin'er, look at these two little greedy cats, do they look like they were released from prison? It seems like they are short of food."
Chen Qingxin looked at them lovingly and said, "Eat, eat more. Do you know what you two look like now?"
Chen Qingying stuck out her tongue and leaned closer to her elder sister to smell it: "What does it look like, elder sister?"
Chen Qingwen came out of the tent and answered for her with a smile:
"Eldest sister, let's just let them make a fuss. With this kind of food, we should feed more sheep. Sheep can only work hard when they are well fed and well-watered."
Chen Qingxin immediately agreed: "Yes, yes, I think Qingwen is right."
Everyone came to their senses and burst into laughter.
Chen Qingying pouted: "My brother has learned bad habits just like my elder sister."
Chen Qingwu suddenly realized: "Brother, have you been released from prison by mother?"
"..."
Everyone laughed even harder.
Chen Li smiled and joked, "I love Qingwen as my own son, how could I possibly send him to jail? Don't listen to what he says."
Chen Qingxin said, "Mother, you didn't send it to me because you were afraid that I would suffer. Alas, you are so partial. I am a little jealous of Qingwen."
"Why are you jealous of him? He's not taking your things away." Chen Li said seriously.
A group of people were chatting and laughing, and the cut leeks had already filled a basket.
"Miss, it hurts to cut so much at once. Can you finish it?"
"Hahaha! That's enough. Go wash the leeks first, and then put them in a large dustpan to dry. I'll teach you how to make something delicious later."
Chen Qingxin thought of the leek dumplings and couldn't help but swallowing secretly.
When Xiao Qingwu heard about the delicious food, he immediately became excited:
"Sister, sister, what's delicious?
Can you tell Qingwu quietly?"
After he finished speaking, he moved his little head closer to Chen Qingxin.
He looked as if he was listening attentively.
"Okay then, I'll tell you in secret." Chen Qingxin deliberately kept people in suspense.
"Thank you, elder sister." Xiao Qingwu shouted happily.
Chen Qingxin pinched his chubby face and said, "Let me tell you, today we can eat a special kind of chive dumplings."
"Eldest sister, what do you mean by special?"
"Let me tell you this, the leeks we harvested today are the fattest." Chen Qingxin explained patiently, "We are going to use leeks, eggs, and flour to make delicious food."
"Scrambled eggs with leeks?" Xiao Qingwu asked in surprise.
"No, let's go back and knead the dough now."
Chen Li, Nanny Yang and Chen Qingying went to wash the leeks.
Chen Qingxin and his two younger brothers planned to knead the dough first.
Nanny Han went to boil some water.
Everyone performs their duties.
Chen Qingxin took out a clean stainless steel soup bucket: "Qingwen, pour all the noodles in this bag into it."
Chen Qingwen took the bag of unknown material handed over by his elder sister, and frowned:
"Eldest sister, there are at least 20 kilograms of flour here. Are you sure you can use it all at once?"
"Hurry up and stop nagging! Why do kids have so many questions?"
If you ignore the smile on her lips, you would think she was scolding someone.
Chen Qingwen pouted unhappily: "Aren't they afraid of wasting food?
Sister, why are you so serious?
Qingwen was scared!"
