The young widow who inherited her dead husband's estate (Part 9)
The seedling cultivation went more smoothly than expected. Song Ning didn't know why things seemed to be going smoothly since he came here?
The ten acres of land had already been plowed, and Song Ning had read the relevant knowledge over and over again before planting the seedlings.
Before farming, he was thinking about pastoral life. After he finished farming, Song Ning almost couldn't straighten his back.
“Farming is a bit hard.”
He pounded his back hard several times and stretched for a while before straightening up.
But no matter what, the swaying seedlings in the field in front of him looked cute and pleasing to the eye. Even though his back and waist ached, Song Ning felt happy about it at the moment.
There were still some extra seedlings, so Song Ning thought about it and found a vacant space in front of the house to plant them.
Those in the fields may be sold in the future, but these can be picked and eaten by yourself at any time, which is quite convenient.
After finishing taking care of the fields, Song Ning remembered that there was a fish pond.
Lawyer Wu said that this pond had been plowed in the past and the pond mud had been disinfected. It is now quite clean and even small fish and shrimps can hardly be seen.
The ducks have not been released yet. Song Ning estimates that if they are released, the ducks will most likely run into this pond.
"We still need to pick some fish and shrimp fry to put down there, right?"
Although the ducks might eat some of it, it would be nice if you raised fish and shrimp fry in it and could sell them later or eat them yourself.
After thinking it over, Song Ning searched for information again. Finally, he was very troubled and decided to just choose the common local varieties.
Besides, he is still a novice after all. Instead of picking those that may be expensive or of good varieties, it is better to buy local varieties first to ensure that they can be raised and have strong adaptability, which is more suitable for him.
It was indeed easy to buy local fish and shrimp fry. Song Ning contacted the owner of the agricultural and sideline product store, who kindly told him where he could go. He even kindly told Song Ning which store had better quality, but the price was slightly higher.
Although Song Ning didn't have much money, after repeated consideration he decided to choose the one whose fish fry the boss said had the best quality.
After all, it costs money. If the fish and shrimp fry are better and have a higher survival rate, then the money will not be spent in vain. Otherwise, the money will be wasted even if it is spent.
The boss of the store I was introduced to was named Yu, and he was smiling when he introduced himself.
"What does this prove? It proves that our family has been suited to this business for generations. You want to buy local seedlings, right? I have them here. The price may be a little higher than other places, but I guarantee that they are all good seedlings and I won't rip you off."
"I also have feed for sale. If you want to buy it together, I can give you a lower price."
When Song Ning heard this, he hurriedly asked about the price. The price the other party quoted was indeed a little cheaper than the price Song Ning asked about.
"Then trouble the boss, I want the feed too."
"Okay, then I'll just deliver it to you later. Where is your store?" Boss Yu was quick to respond and said he could deliver it for free if it wasn't too far.
Song Ning quickly gave his address. Boss Yu thought for a moment and said, "I see. I have a cousin who lives next door to you. I know the way. I'll pack it up and send it to you this afternoon. Is there anyone at home?"
"Yes, I'll be home this afternoon." Song Ning took out his phone and added him on WeChat. He was about to transfer the money, but was stopped by Boss Yu. "It's okay. You can wait for me to send it over and then settle the bill. We are doing long-term business here and we will never cheat you."
Song Ning had no choice but to nod in agreement.
At around three o'clock in the afternoon, Boss Yu drove his car to deliver the fish and shrimp fry and feed.
He unloaded the things swiftly and exclaimed "Wow" in admiration.
"You keep this pond very clean. Today, I thought you looked young and didn't know much, but I didn't expect you to be so capable."
Song Ning wanted to explain that he didn't take care of it, but Boss Yu turned around and saw the land and house on the other side, "Whose land is that? It looks well taken care of. That house is so close, is it your house?"
"Yes, the land is mine too, and I just planted it."
Song Ning felt a little embarrassed, but also inexplicably proud.
"Wow," Boss Yu was really surprised. He moved closer to take a look at the seedlings in the field, then turned around and exclaimed, "You are quite good at this kind of land. The seedlings here look strong. I'm sure we will have a good harvest."
Song Ning was so flattered by him that he didn't know what to do and could only smile with his lips pursed. Boss Yu was even happier when he saw this and said that he looked like a college student because he was full of student spirit.
While Boss Yu was unloading the goods, Song Ning went into the house and poured him some water.
"Oh, thank you, student brother, you are very considerate."
Boss Yu took a few sips and drank it down. "I have several relatives at home who are college students like you, but they don't usually greet us during festivals. When we go to their homes, they are either sleeping or playing games. It's hard to talk to them. I think you are much better than them. You are so capable and know how to behave at such a young age."
Song Ning didn't know how to respond to this. In fact, many of his roommates were the kind of people that Boss Yu mentioned. However, in Song Ning's opinion, they were raised with love and pampering by their parents, so they didn't have to be like him, and were taught how to be a human being by society at an early age.
Who would want to learn these things so early if there are really people who are always there to protect you from the wind and rain?
After settling the bill and saying goodbye to the boss, Song Ning went to water the fields before coming back to take a shower and lie down.
Just as he lay down, he heard the geese calling in the backyard. Song Ning then remembered that he had been so busy all day that he seemed to have forgotten to feed the poultry at home?
He quickly changed his clothes, got up, and went to the backyard to mix feed for the chickens and ducks.
The two geese were a little older now, and they kept chasing after him, making Song Ning sweat in the cold weather.
After finally feeding the birds, Song Ning returned to the house. As soon as he entered, he saw that the incense on the table was almost burned out.
He took a look, and he didn't know where he got the strength from his weak body, but he came over and lit a new stick of incense.
The smoke was curling up, and Song Ning was used to the smell.
Inserting the incense into the incense burner, Song Ning looked at the marriage certificate on the table. The man with exotic eyes and eyebrows was exceptionally handsome. He suddenly reached out to touch it, and sighed unconsciously.
"It's really tiring to be alone. It would be great if you were really my husband. If there's one more person, I should be able to take turns to go home and cook a hot meal, right?"
A breeze blew from somewhere, dispersing the smoke slightly, but it quickly returned to its original state.
Song Ning, who was too tired to talk, didn't notice and went straight back to his room to sleep.
As for eating and other things, let’s talk about it tomorrow morning.
