Genius One Second Remember Love Go/Little? We provide you with wonderful novels to read.
When vegetables come into contact with sunlight, they will produce photosynthesis, which is necessary for plant growth. But at the same time, they will also produce transpiration. The water in the leaves will evaporate, which requires a developed root system to continuously provide water.
The root system of plants, especially the fibrous roots, is very fragile. As long as there is a transplant, it will more or less cause damage to the root system. As a result, the water provided by the root system will not be able to satisfy the transpiration of the leaves. The result is that the leaves will wither, or even directly die.
Therefore, in the early stages of transplanting the plants, it is necessary to reduce the transpiration of the plants as much as possible to avoid letting the plants come into contact with strong sunlight. First, ensure that they survive, let the roots gradually recover, and then they can grow normally.
It is also because of this reason that Ang Lee decided to transplant these plants in the evening to ensure that these plants can survive.
After deciding to develop the land outside the city, Ang Lee asked Zhao Liu to buy more servants to expand the manpower of the mansion to avoid a lack of manpower resulting in no one to do the farm work.
Now, the number of servants in the mansion has been increased. All in all, there are 40 people, half of them are men and half of them are men.
Ang Lee asked Zhao Liu to gather 20 servants and let them immediately start working. They carefully dug up the plants in the vegetable greenhouse in the backyard, trying to reduce the damage to the root system as much as possible, and placed them on the flat planks that have already been built.
The roots of these plants all retain a large amount of soil. After all, this soil has water, which can ensure that during the transportation process, the plants can still absorb a small amount of water to maintain their lives.
The vegetable greenhouse in the backyard is more than one mu. The vegetable sprouts are densely grown inside. Even if 20 people work together, the workload is still very large. Ang Lee and Zhao Liu personally go to the ground to help the servants. After all, the curfew is coming. If they are a step late, these vegetables will not be transported out of the city on time. If they are left in the mansion overnight, the survival rate will greatly decrease.
"Husband, I brought Grass to help you."
Yan Ruyu changed into a set of light clothes and walked into the vegetable greenhouse in the backyard with her personal maid Grass.
As someone from the future, Ang Lee naturally didn't feel that there was anything wrong with this. He smiled gently and said, "I'm very happy that Madam can come and help. Come, let's dig vegetables together."
Yan Ruyu and Cao's work speed was not fast, but it was better to have one more person working than one less person, so their work speed increased a little.
The wooden planks for placing vegetables had three sides. For this reason, these planks could be stacked together, which was very convenient for transportation and also convenient for placement.
Before the sun set, most of the vegetable sprouts in the greenhouse were placed on wooden planks and loaded onto transport carts, ready to be transported to the greenhouse fifteen miles outside of the city.
"Husband, are you going to personally escort these sprouts out of the city?"
Yan Ruyu was a little reluctant to part with Ang Lee.
"Madam, this batch of vegetable sprouts is very important. I'm the only one who knows how to plant them. I don't feel at ease leaving it to others."
Ang Lee explained. After all, these servants weren't all farmers. Many of them didn't know much about planting vegetables. Moreover, Ang Lee had a more scientific plan, so he had to personally direct them on the spot.
"Husband, I also want to go. I don't want to be alone in the house. It's cold and lonely."
Yan Ruyu pursed her lips and complained. This well-educated and well-mannered lady, after marrying Ang Lee, had actually learned to be bold. This could be considered as the husband singing the wife's tune!
Ang Lee originally didn't plan to bring Yan Ruyu along. After all, Ang Lee planned to work all night. If he let Yan Ruyu follow him, wouldn't it be too tiring? Moreover, the courtyard hadn't been built yet. There was no suitable place to stay even if they went. In this cold weather, how could Ang Lee bear to let Yan Ruyu freeze in the wilderness?
"Madam, the weather at night is too cold. The wind in the wilderness is bone-piercing. The courtyard hasn't been built yet. It's not suitable for you to go. There isn't even a place to stay."
Li An thought about it for a long time, but in the end, he still resolutely refused.
"Husband, are you planning to stay up all night? Ruyu is willing to accompany husband. If you don't sleep, I won't sleep either. "
Yan Ruyu suddenly became bold. She actually disobeyed Ang Lee's arrangement.
Li An grinned, nodded, and said, "Alright, since my wife has already made up her mind, then let's prepare properly! Grass, carry the coat and quilt into the carriage. If my wife is tired, she can sleep in the carriage. Go! "
"Yes, Alang."
Grass happily ran to carry the quilt and coat. Zhao Liu went to prepare the carriage.
If Yan Ruyu didn't want to go out of the city, Ang Lee could just ride the horse and bring the servants to push the transport boat. But Yan Ruyu insisted on going, so he had to prepare a warm carriage to prevent Yan Ruyu from falling ill from the cold wind.
The specifications of Li An's family's horse carriage were pretty good. In particular, there was a lot of space inside. It wasn't a problem to stuff a dozen or so people inside. With Yan Ruyu and Cao 'er sitting inside, it seemed very spacious.
The facilities inside had been meticulously remodeled by Li An. All the facilities were very complete. One could either sit or lie down to sleep inside. There was even a corner that was specially set aside for the toilet, just like the caravans of the future.
Because it was winter, the carriage was wrapped with two layers of thick cloth. The outer layer was used to block the wind, and the inner layer was used to keep warm. As long as the curtains were tightly closed, the space inside was like a greenhouse.
Yan Ruyu and Cao 'er sat in such a comfortable carriage and didn't feel the bone-chilling cold outside at all. However, Li An, who was riding on horseback, was different. The bone-chilling cold wind pierced his face, but Li An's body was strong and sturdy, so he didn't care about the cold at all.
Before the curfew, Ang Lee and the others smoothly left the city gate and went straight to the courtyard fifteen miles away.
"Husband, it's so cold outside. Sit in the carriage!"
Yan Ruyu gently lifted the curtain on the side of the carriage. Immediately, a biting cold wind blew into the carriage. Yan Ruyu couldn't help but shiver. Her tender little face felt as if it had been cut by a knife.
"My wife, close the curtain. Your husband is the most outstanding man of the Tang dynasty. How can he be afraid of the cold wind? Haha! "
Ang Lee laughed and asked Yan Ruyu to close the curtain. Facing the cold wind was the true nature of a man. Hiding in the carriage would only encourage laziness and weakness.
Yan Ruyu threw a coquettish glance at Ang Lee. Seeing Ang Lee smiling at her and gently closing the curtain, her heart was sweet as if she had eaten honey.
"My wife's smile is so sweet!"
Grass leaned over to Yan Ruyu's ear and whispered. Although they had always been master and servant, they were actually as close as sisters. Moreover, this relationship would last for a lifetime. As long as Yan Ruyu didn't remove Grass's slave status, Grass would always be a maid.
As a dowry maid, she was Ang Lee's property. She could also be understood as Ang Lee's woman. However, this woman's status would always be a dowry maid. Even if she gave birth to a child for the master, her status would still be low. The child she gave birth to would be the so-called illegitimate child, which should be lower than the illegitimate child of an ordinary concubine.
"Grass, you're making fun of me again. I'm going to teach you a lesson."
Yan Ruyu chuckled. She pressed Grass under her body and scratched Grass's armpit. Suddenly, she was filled with the domineering aura of a female lead. Grass could only beg for mercy.
Fifteen li was really not a long journey. When the sky had just turned dark, the group arrived at Ang Lee's thousand mu of land and went directly to an open space next to the water wheel.
"My wife, you can get off the carriage."
Ang Lee jumped off the warhorse and walked to the side of the carriage. He gently lifted the curtain and let Yan Ruyu get off the carriage.
"Wow, it's so cold outside!"
Yan Ruyu was blown by the cold wind and couldn't help but shiver.
"My wife, it's cold outside. Quickly put on a coat."
Ang Lee said with great concern. He reached out and prepared to carry Yan Ruyu off the carriage.
"Husband, there are so many people watching."
"They're all servants. There are no outsiders. Be good, come on!"
Ang Lee opened his arms and waited for Yan Ruyu to jump into his arms.
Yan Ruyu closed her eyes and jumped down. Ang Lee caught her steadily.
"Hahaha, hahaha …"
Ang Lee laughed a few times. He hugged Yan Ruyu and spun on the spot. The feeling was really too good.
Although there were people around, they were all servants in Ang Lee's house. Moreover, under Zhao Liu's gaze, most of them were working honestly. Almost no one dared to look at Ang Lee and Yan Ruyu. At most, they would glance at them from the corner of their eyes.
After being intimate with Yan Ruyu for a while, Ang Lee led the servants to work.
Although he had already told the servants how to plant the plants, Ang Lee was still somewhat worried. Thus, he came personally.
The five hundred mu of land had already been watered. It was very suitable for planting vegetable seedlings. Of course, after planting, it had to be watered again to ensure that the seedlings could get enough water.
Twenty servants were definitely not enough. Ang Lee took eighty people from the coolies who were building the courtyard and had them work through the night. He gave them double the wages.
In addition, in order to finish as quickly as possible, the servants were divided into ten groups. Each group had ten people and they all started working at the same time.
In this way, on average, each person had to work five mu of land. This was a very large amount of work. To finish so much work in one night, the pressure was very great. In addition, there was also the work related to watering, so the pressure was even greater.
The ten groups immediately started working. No one dared to be lazy. Ang Lee inspected the groups one by one. If they didn't do well, he would immediately give them guidance and let them change as soon as possible to avoid more losses.
Because he had to take care of the ten groups, Ang Lee naturally didn't have time to do the work himself. Zhao Liu also had to accompany Ang Lee. Yan Ruyu and Grass followed Ang Lee to inspect. From time to time, they would ask about this and that, as if they were very curious about something new.
Under Ang Lee's continuous guidance for more than two hours, the ten groups of servants gradually understood Ang Lee's intentions. They strictly followed Ang Lee's instructions and worked hard.
Zhao Liu had already completely understood how to plant all kinds of plants. When Ang Lee was resting, he replaced Ang Lee and went to the various greenhouses to supervise the servants and commoners. This saved Ang Lee a lot of trouble.
At the place where the carriage was parked, Yan Ruyu and Grass were curiously looking at the two huge waterwheels. It was as if they had never seen such a thing before.
In truth, waterwheels had been around for a long time. It was just that in the backward feudal society, they weren't popularized.
"This is a waterwheel. It's used for irrigation. Do you want to try it?"
Ang Lee lightly smiled. He really wanted to see if Yan Ruyu and Grass could push the waterwheel. He also wanted to see how they would push the waterwheel.
"Waterwheel, I think I've seen it in a book. How do I use it? Husband, teach me."
Yan Ruyu suddenly remembered that she had seen a picture of a waterwheel in a book. Suddenly, her curiosity was aroused. She wanted to personally move the water source to a high place.
"It's very simple to use this waterwheel. You just need to stand on it and use your feet to step on it. Try it!"
Ang Lee lightly smiled and helped Yan Ruyu over. Grass also followed and stepped on the platform.
Yan Ruyu and Grass held the wooden pole with both hands and stepped hard on the platform. However, their progress was very slow. Because the water below was too deep and the diameter of the waterwheel was also very large. After the bucket below was filled with water, it would become very heavy. Naturally, the strength of the feet would be higher. Yan Ruyu and Grass were weak women. Their leg strength was relatively weak. Naturally, they couldn't smoothly step on such a large waterwheel.
"Wife, Grass, you have to use your strength. If you don't use your strength, how can you step on it? Use your strength, use your strength."
Li An encouraged the two of them while he stood at the side and admired them.
Yan Ruyu and Grass didn't admit defeat. They gritted their teeth and used all their strength to step on the platform under their feet. It was very difficult for them to make the waterwheel move.
As the bamboo tubes filled with water rose little by little, the pressure of the waterwheel increased. However, the two people used all their strength and persisted in stepping on the platform. Finally, the water in the bamboo tubes was sprinkled into the small ditch at a high place.
"Husband, this waterwheel is really interesting. However, it's too tiring. It's very tiring to step on it."
Yan Ruyu only watered three bamboo tubes with water. She was so tired that she didn't want to continue stepping on it. Her cheeks were red and a trace of sweat flowed out of her forehead.
"Wife, look at how tired you are. Quickly wipe off the sweat. Be careful not to catch a cold."
Ang Lee considerately wiped Yan Ruyu's sweat and gently stroked Yan Ruyu's little face. His eyes were full of tenderness.
Yan Ruyu smiled, appearing even more charming and charming.
The waterwheel was a divine tool specially designed by Ang Lee to collect water. In order to increase the amount of water it could collect, Ang Lee asked the craftsmen to make the bamboo tubes with the largest diameter. Moreover, they were tightly tied around the waterwheel. This way, the amount of water it could collect was naturally greater. However, at the same time, it also brought more resistance to the platform. It was more difficult to step on it. However, Ang Lee designed the platform to be longer. It could accommodate ten adults stepping on it at the same time. With this sharing of the burden, the pressure was reduced a lot and the water collection became faster.
Zhao Liu led the servants and people to work seriously. Ang Lee led Yan Ruyu and Grass to enjoy the beautiful night scenery on their own land.
