Wake up suddenly, back to the time when my wife and daughter had an accident

Chapter 631

"The farmland in our village is basically terraced, all built on the mountain. Not only is the area small, but it is also very barren, and the yield of growing grain is very low."

"But if it is to grow medicinal herbs, it is completely sufficient. This time I came back, I hope to gather all the farmland in the surrounding villages and grow Chinese medicinal herbs together."

"Are you going to let the farmers grow it themselves, or do you contract it?"

"I contracted it and hired people to grow it. Planting Chinese medicinal herbs is also a technical job. The villagers are okay at growing crops, but if they are asked to grow Chinese medicinal herbs for one or two years, they may not be able to figure it out."

Meng Haisheng has the Lin family as his backer. If he really grows Chinese medicinal herbs on a large scale, he can directly dispatch workers from the Lin family to guide the work.

In this way, there is no need for time to ease up. The farmland can be planted immediately after it is collected.

"That's good. Although the villagers are simple, it's also difficult to get them to work together and listen to you."

"After all, you haven't lived in the village for a long time. People are not familiar with you, so how can they listen to you in everything?"

Meng Haisheng had thought about this matter many times before, and carefully considered the uncertainties in it.

In the end, he chose the simplest and most direct way, which was to use money directly.

All the land was contracted by him, and he could do whatever he wanted, and the villagers couldn't control him.

However, this matter was also a troublesome job. Meng Haisheng wanted the farmland of several surrounding villages, and he had to discuss it with the villages first, and only after they agreed could he sublease it to Meng Haisheng.

And the consent of the town, county, and city was required for this matter to be successful.

Now Meng Hailian has just mentioned this matter to the village party secretaries of each village, and the villages have not yet discussed the outline.

Meng Haisheng will be thankful that he can catch up with the autumn planting this year.

The children were sweating after running on the mountain for a while.

"Little Stone, you are running away. I will take you to wash your face and catch katydids."

"Dad, is there a stream on the mountain?"

"Yes, there is also a mountain spring. I brought a kettle and I will take you to get water."

Meng Haisheng grew up in the mountains and was very familiar with the roads on the mountain.

He led everyone along a narrow path and slowly went down to a mountain stream.

"I used to dig Bupleurum in the mountains. When I was tired, I would come to this mountain spring to drink water and rest."

"It's much cooler inside the mountain stream than outside."

"Well, I can feel it too. The mountain breeze has become a little cooler."

In this hot summer, the sun is heated by the leaves, and it is really comfortable to feel a hint of cool mountain breeze.

Looking at the mountain stream, it seems to be right in front of us, but the group walked for nearly half an hour before walking down from the middle of the mountain.

At the bottom of the mountain stream, a small spring gushed out clear spring water, forming a stream.

The flow of the stream was very small, and it disappeared after entering a rocky beach a few meters away.

The vegetation near the mountain spring was obviously more lush than the surrounding area.

"Little Stone, you wash your face here, I'll go to the spring to fetch water for you to drink."

Meng Haisheng took a large water bottle. When he came, he had decided to fetch mountain spring water for his family to drink.

Meng Haisheng had told Meng Hailian before that there was a spring in the mountain stream with very good water quality.

Unfortunately, Meng Hailian came to the mountain countless times, but he couldn't find this spring no matter how hard he tried.

Even Meng Guangzhu and the villagers had never seen it.

"Grandpa, try the spring water."

Meng Haisheng used the plastic cover of the water bottle as a cup and handed the spring water to Mr. Shi.

He had drunk all kinds of expensive spring water in his previous life, but none of them tasted as good as this mountain spring water.

He really tasted the sweetness from the mountain spring water.

"Not bad, much better than the mineral water I drank in Beijing."

"Right, the water bottle I brought today is big enough. Let's go back and make tea with mountain spring water. It will definitely taste good."

Meng Haisheng gave the water cup to several children and asked them to drink some water.

The children were already sweating profusely when they went up the mountain just now. Now they drank a large cup of water each, and then they handed the cup lid to Meng Haisheng with satisfaction.

Meng Haisheng also tasted it, and it still tasted the same as before, and it has not changed at all over the years.

After filling the water bottle, Meng Haisheng took the children to catch katydids in the surrounding grass.

"Dad, look, there's a big katydid over here."

Meng Haisheng looked in the direction of Xiao Shitou's hand and saw a shiny black katydid squatting in the bushes.

Perhaps it was because of the voices of the people just now that the katydid was too scared to scream.

Meng Haisheng leaned forward and stretched out his arm to hold the katydid in his palm.

"This katydid is quite strong."

He carefully put the katydid into the cage and watched the fourThe children all gathered around.

"It's so ugly."

Yanyan stared at the black katydid with curious eyes.

"How beautiful it is, Yanyan, you have a bad taste."

Little Stone was overjoyed and directly wrapped the cage in his arms.

"Little Stone, show the katydid to your sisters. What's the point of you looking at it alone? It's fun to watch it together."

Meng Haisheng couldn't help rubbing Little Stone's head.

There are many children in the family, and Meng Haisheng always reminds them that they can't eat alone. They have the same blood in their bodies, so they should help each other. One chopstick is easy to break, but if four chopsticks are put together, they will not be easily broken.

"They don't like katydids."

Little Stone is a little unconvinced.

"Who said that? The chirping of katydids is very funny. Children like them."

"Dad, I want a green katydid. The black one is too ugly."

Zi Zi looked at the katydid in the cage and couldn't help curling her lips. She didn't like black either.

"Okay, Dad will catch one for each of you. You can always catch the one you like."

Meng Haisheng treated all the children equally. When it came to catching katydids, he naturally had to catch one for each of them.

When the old man Shi saw Meng Haisheng interacting with the children, he felt a little sad.

When his children were this age, he was in the army. He and his sons could not see each other for a whole year.

When they liked him the most, he was not there.

Now that he is old, the children are not close to him. It's no wonder that others can't blame him.

There are many things to do in the mountains besides catching katydids.

When Meng Haisheng was a child, he was hungry, so he liked to pick fruits in the mountains.

At that time, he could find a few red raspberries in the mountains, which was enough to make him happy for half a day.

Now the children have no shortage of food, and the raspberries on the mountain are big and red, but no one picks them.

Meng Haisheng picked a big leaf and a bunch of raspberries for the children and Mr. Shi to eat.

"It's so sweet, I haven't eaten raspberries for decades."

Mr. Shi ate a ripe raspberry, which was sweet and sour and tasted very good.

"Dad, you eat it too."

Momo took the biggest one and stuffed it into Meng Haisheng's mouth.

The rich juice burst in his mouth, and Meng Haisheng couldn't help squinting his eyes. It still tasted like when he was a child.
