Chapter 217 Preparing to Build a Greenhouse for Growing Vegetables
Songni bowed respectfully, "Master Divine Envoy, I will certainly obey your orders. You can tell me where you're going, but if you want to leave the village, you have to hurry. The day is short, and I'm afraid it will get dark if I go back and forth. Yes, I have to go back and change into a pair of comfortable cloth shoes so as not to delay your business..."
Listening to her husband's long speech, Mrs. Wu's eyes widened, and she couldn't tell whether she was surprised or jealous.
You know, she has been training Songni for so many years, and has seen many people and experienced many things, but she has never seen him speak so well and so fluently!
Could it be that all my hard work over the years is not as good as Lin Qing’s one night?
Mrs. Wu looked at Lin Qing's pretty and clean face, gritting her teeth and thinking, was it her method that was wrong, or was Songni just attracted by her beauty?
Why? How is she inferior to this widow? Isn't she just prettier and younger than me?!
How could she do it on her own!
She sneered and was about to say something sarcastic, but unexpectedly, Songni seemed to see through her thoughts. He glared at her fiercely and whispered, "Shut up! I'm working for the Lord Messenger of God. Stop whining there!"
Wu's inner displeasure almost burst out of her chest, but looking at Song Ni's imposing look, she felt a little timid for some reason. She could only mutter as she walked into the door, and before turning around, she gave Lin Qing a sour look.
Lin Qing thought that Mrs. Wu didn't want to stay home to look after Xifeng, so she said, "Sister Wu, I just want Brother Songni to help out in the fields. Don't worry, he'll be back before noon."
Seeing that Lin Qing had a good attitude, Mrs. Wu finally felt relieved, but she was still harsh in her words.
"Who cares if he comes home for lunch or not? It's better if he doesn't. It saves me a lot of trouble!"
Songni gave Lin Qing a wry smile and followed behind him to explain, "Lord Divine Envoy, my wife is a bit stingy. I'm sorry to have embarrassed you. Please don't take it to heart."
Lin Qing stopped and said seriously, "If Sister Wu heard what Brother Songni said, she would definitely be upset. I know Sister Wu has a sharp tongue but a soft heart. People like her are the most vulnerable. She did a good thing, but because of her momentary verbal slapping, she might be blamed."
After a pause, he said firmly, "So, Brother Songni, you should be more considerate of her."
Songni was a little stunned when he heard Lin Qing say this.
He knew very well that his wife had a bad temper, and the villagers had few good things to say about her.
But the Lord God's Messenger usually speaks no more than ten sentences to his wife, so how could he know...
Ah, I was confused too. She is God's messenger, it's normal for her to know everything!
Wu walked back into the house, threw the basket hard on the table, looked at Xifeng who was still unconscious in the house, and listened to the sound of women from unknown families outside the yard going hand in hand to the mountains to dig wild vegetables. The more she thought about it, the angrier she became.
Humph, the wife of Mr. Gu seems to be quite inconspicuous on weekdays, but I didn’t expect that she can order people around!
You saved my Xifeng, and now you want my man to work for free. You really have a good plan!
It wasn't that she hated taking care of her daughter at home, but compared to herself, Songni was more suitable to stay at home. She was supposed to meet with the matchmaker today to discuss Xifeng's marriage. Really...
No, when Songni comes back, I must ask him what he helped with today!
If he can't explain it clearly, don't blame me for being rude!
On this side, Song Ni was a little confused looking at Lin Qing's back, but when he realized that they were going to Uncle Youzu's field, he understood.
The eldest daughter-in-law of the Gu family was unwilling to say it clearly just now, she must have felt embarrassed.
Uncle Youzu had a variety of tempers, and he must have made Sanmu do some physical work that was difficult for him to bear. She asked herself to go, perhaps to move and spread fertilizer.
Forget it, just go.
Anyway, there is not much work to do now. The only thing she needs to do is to build a high wall for the Gu family. As long as she is not in a hurry, she can do anything.
Lin Qing naturally knew about Song Ni's doubts, but she didn't have time to explain or state her plan clearly, because she was busy searching for books about agricultural facilities in the system. After all, she herself only had a vague understanding of it.
Hey, there really is!
It's just that the price is as exaggerated as ever.
50 wen...
Sure enough, books that transcend time and space are expensive.
But she had to buy it even though it was expensive, otherwise she really didn't know how to build a greenhouse.
When they finally arrived at the small thatched hut at the edge of Song Youzu's land, they saw him waiting there anxiously, pacing back and forth in circles.
When I saw them finally coming, I wanted to ask them straight away, but when I saw Songni following them, I couldn't help but pause.
What kind of rules are these?
What kind of thing is it that requires a piece of mud that can't even be beaten with three sticks?
Song Ni was obviously also confused. After exchanging a few words with Song Youzu, he fell silent.
Gu Sanmu poked Gu Ermiao's elbow, asking with his eyes what to do next. The latter shook his head, indicating that he didn't know either.
How could they guess what my mother was thinking?
Song Youzu sighed deeply and sat down on the bench. He thought over the words of the second son of the Gu family several times in his mind. He knew that the eldest daughter-in-law of the Gu family must have her own reasons for calling Song Ni over. He said, "You two should sit down first. Let's talk in detail."
After sitting down, several people couldn't help but turn their eyes to Lin Qing.
Lin Qing took a piece of dirt and sketched out the sketch of the greenhouse on the table stroke by stroke. After explaining his idea in detail, Song Youzu and Song Ni exchanged glances and read shock in each other's eyes.
Especially pine has feet.
Having worked in the fields for most of his life, he naturally knew how important the "greenhouse" as the eldest daughter-in-law of the Gu family called it was.
To be honest, he himself had thought about what to use to shelter the seedlings in the field from wind and rain, but the materials he tried were either too soft and fell over with the wind and rain; or too hard and were caught by rain and snow and fell onto the crops, causing even greater damage.
This, this greenhouse idea is simply brilliant!
It can keep you warm, protect you from sunlight, and be breathable...
No wonder Songni was called over!
Songni, however, poured a huge basin of cold water on him at the right time.
"But Uncle Zu has such a large piece of land. If we build greenhouses all over it, this... this job will be difficult!"
"Yeah," Gu Sanmu, who was standing behind Song Youzu, echoed, "It'll probably take several months to finish this job. By then, wouldn't it delay planting..."
Gu Sanmu quickly shut up when he saw Song Youzu slightly turn sideways.
"Of course not all of it is enclosed," Gu Ermiao pointed to the sketch on the table and said, "The purpose of building the greenhouse now is not only to make things grow longer, but also to keep it secret. Grandpa Zu, have you forgotten the story I just told you..."
Song Youzu took a deep breath.
Songni became more and more puzzled.
No matter how small the greenhouse is, it will still be a huge thing. This piece of land is the only way to go up the mountain, so it is hard for others not to notice it, right?
Could it be that the Divine Messenger has a way to make it invisible to ordinary people?
You are truly worthy of being called God’s Messenger!
