"What kind of army worm?"
Hearing Yunzhu say that the bug found was army worm, Ning Lin was so surprised that he even dropped the herbs in his hand, "If it were really army worm, it would be difficult to deal with.
It is said that the last time there was army worm, it was My great-grandfather’s family has never figured out a medicine that can cure armyworms in these years.”
"It is indeed an armyworm.
I don't recognize it, but my grandfather does."
After listening to Ning Lin's words, Yunzhu confirmed.
It seems that the method in his hand is the only way to cure the armyworm.
"Well, I'm afraid this year's harvest is over."
Ning Lin sighed.
Although Ning Lin had never seen armyworms, he had heard of them.
He sighed heavily, "If this matter is confirmed, we must do it as soon as possible."
You have to report it to the government, otherwise you won’t be able to pay the tax at all until the harvest comes in August or September.”
Despite Ning Lin's young age, he sometimes spoke like an adult.
Yunzhu had to sigh, people in ancient times were really precocious.
Think about it, some country people start planning marriages when they are only thirteen or fourteen years old.
They will get married when the girl is fifteen or seventeen years old.
Generally, she becomes the mother and the father when she is sixteen or seventeen years old.
How is it like modern times?
Falling in love is all puppy love.
The two sat and talked again, and the topic was all about armyworms.
Rather than talking, it was more like Ning Lin talking and Yunzhu listening.
After a while, the sound of wheels came.
Ning Lin put down the medicinal materials in his hand and walked towards the door.
Yunzhu knew that Ning Yi must be back, so she also stood up and followed Ning Lin. .
"Yunzhu is here."
Ning Yi stopped the donkey cart at the door and said hello to Yunzhu.
Yunzhu looked at his face and it didn't seem to be very good.
It seemed that he had determined that the insect pests in the ground were sticky. insect.
He handed the donkey cart to Ning Lin and asked him to feed the donkey before sending it to his neighbor's house.
Ning Yi entered the yard, drank a few water, and then sat down with a frown.
"Uncle Ning, I heard from Brother Ning Lin, are the insects on your land called armyworms?"
Although the land is rented out, it actually still belongs to the Ning family, so Yunzhu asked this question.
"Well, how did you know it was armyworms that were also in trouble at your home?"
Hearing Yunzhu ask, Ning Yi quickly raised his head and looked at her.
Yunzhu nodded, and now Ning Yi's face became even worse.
"Well, once the armyworm comes out, I don't know what the harvest will be like this year."
Ning Yi sighed and said the same thing as Ning Lin.
No wonder, this armyworm is extremely rare not only in ancient times, but also in modern times.
Yunzhu had read some reports in his previous life about the troublesome pests.
It was said that in order to control these pests, the Celestial Empire spent tens of millions of soft sister coins every year.
"I have to go to the town tomorrow.
Such things must be reported as soon as possible.
Are you still going tomorrow?"
After a moment of silence, Ning Yi spoke again and asked Yunzhu.
"Well, I'll go tomorrow, and then I won't go during this period.

There's an insect infestation, so I'd better take care of the work in the village first.
I'll tell Qiuniang tomorrow too."
He nodded, although it was a pity not to be able to make money for a while. , but things in the fields are the most important now.
Although I have a method, I don’t know whether it will work in ancient times.
Thinking of this, Yunzhu couldn't help but frown.
"Don't worry too much, maybe there will be a solution this year."
Looking at Yunzhu's appearance, Ning Yi reluctantly showed a smile on his face, "We adults have everything, so don't worry too much, you kid. " Hearing what Ning Yi said, Yunzhu's eyebrows relaxed a little, "Uncle Ning, I heard from brother Ning Lin.
Grandpa Ning was attacked by armyworms back then.
How did he get it at that time?"
"At that time, there was nothing we could do but report it to the government, and the court had no choice.
So that year, not only our village, but also many places were infested by insect pests.
Many people had their crops eaten by armyworms.
That year, they dug up grass roots.
Came here to eat some leftover food."
Yunzhu asked.
Ning Yi told her what she had heard from her fathers, "Although we had a method at that time, no one was willing to let it go, not to mention that the pests were everywhere, so we waited until October to follow that method. ” "What method?"
Yunzhu is a little strange.
Why can't he give up even if there is a method?
"Using fire, whoever is willing to give it up has a glimmer of hope that the autumn harvest can produce some food.
Even if it is not much, it is better than nothing."
After hearing what Ning Yi said, Yunzhu understood somewhat.
Indeed, burning is also a method. , but this is the case for so many families, and the food has not been completely eaten up, so it is normal to be reluctant to part with it.
It seems that after using my method, after the autumn harvest, I have to ask my grandpa to set fire to the ground.
Not only can it completely kill the pests, but it can also turn the burned bean poles into fertilizer, so that Next year's beans will grow better.
"Didn't the land be burned when harvesting crops in the past?"
Speaking of fire, Yunzhu suddenly remembered that in her previous life, her grandma's family would set fire to the ground before planting.
One was to warm the ground, and the other was to burn the burned things.
Turn it into fertilizer to make the crops in the field grow better.
According to Ning Yi, the method of burning the land was only developed after the army worm was discovered.
"If we don't burn them, we just dig out the roots of the crops and throw them away, or break them into pieces to feed the livestock."
Ning Yi thought for a while, then shook his head, "After burning it once, I never burned it again.
It’s all dug out just like before.”
"So that's it."
Yun Zhu nodded and decided in her heart that from now on, Mr.
Yun would burn the land every year, not for anything else, just so that the crops could grow better.
If anyone asked, she would just blame Granny He.
Anyway, she has passed away, and no one else can ask if they want to.
"What did you think of?"
Seeing Yunzhu nodding, Ning Yi asked with some confusion.
After spending these days with Yunzhu, Ning Yi discovered that Yunzhu is actually a little girl with great ideas.
"It's okay, I just think the method of burning is good.
When my mother and I were in that village, there was Granny He who lived next door.
The crops in her field grew very well.
People said she knew how to take care of the crops.
It's a pity.

She is dead now."
Yunzhu blinked and said, for her, with Granny He, she seems to be able to do many things in the future.
"Indeed, the crops of those who know how to take care of them will grow particularly well."
After hearing what Yunzhu said, Ning Yi responded.
After saying a few more words, Ning Lin came back from outside and was preparing for dinner.
Yun Zhu quickly stood up, said goodbye to the Ning family and his son, and returned to the Yun family.
In the yard, Mrs.
Zhang was chopping food for the livestock.
When she saw Yunzhu, Mrs.
Zhang curled her lips but didn't say anything, which surprised Yunzhu.
When they returned to the thatched cottage in the backyard, Mrs.
Liu was chatting with Mrs.
Yun in the house.
After Yunzhu came up to say hello, she sat obediently next to Mrs.
Yun and listened to the two people talking.
"Second sister-in-law got a lot of scolding from mother-in-law today.
I guess she will be able to settle down during this period of time."
Hearing Mrs.
Liu say this, Yunzhu understood the reason why Mrs.
Zhang was acting strange today.
Her feelings were taken care of by her grandma. .
"The same goes for her.
There is no time to open her mouth."
Yun shook her head helplessly, "In the whole family, I think only the second brother is proud of her."
Hearing what her mother said, Yun Zhu secretly smiled in her heart.
Indeed, in this family, if anyone likes Liu the most, it must be her second uncle Yun Gang.
No matter what his second aunt usually does, he has never expressed any dislike or dislike.
What.
"That's true."
After hearing what Yun said, Mrs.
Liu also said helplessly, "Both couple have very hot tempers, but I haven't seen them blushing for so many years.
You see, your third brother's temperament is usually slow and slow.
Yes, we have been married for so many years, and we have even had a quarrel."
When Mrs.
Liu said this, Yunzhu couldn't help but be curious.
Indeed, since she came here, she has never heard of any quarrel or anything between the two.
Of course, she has not heard other people's, but in her impression Among them, with a character like the second uncle Yungang, paired with the second aunt, even if the two people don't quarrel, it is absolutely impossible to calm down.
But now it seems that, let alone not quarreling, even Yun Gang still Protect Liu family everywhere.
Perhaps, this is the so-called charioteer's skill, Yunzhu thought secretly in his heart.
The two aunts and sisters were talking again when they heard the call for dinner in the front yard.
Yun looked at Mrs.
Liu's belly and then at Yunzhu, "Zhu'er, it's time for dinner.
You can help your aunt to the front yard. ” "Yunniang, you can go to the front yard to eat.
No one dares to say anything when the parents-in-law are here."
After hearing what Yun said, Liu stood up from the kang, stretched out his hand and held her hand.

"I won't go.
It's nice to eat with my Zhu'er in the backyard."
Shaking her head, Yun was very insistent on this matter.
Seeing her like this, Mrs.
Liu couldn't force her.
Yunzhu stepped forward to hold her arm, smiled and said, "Auntie, let's go.
I'll escort you to the front yard for dinner."
"You girl."
He stretched out his hand and touched Yunzhu's forehead.
After Mrs.
Liu said hello to Mrs.
Yun, she went to the front yard with Yunzhu.
The food had been brought to the main room.
Yunwu knew that Mrs.
Liu had gone to the backyard, so He was standing at the door of the main house waiting for her.
As soon as he saw Mrs.
Liu and Yunzhu walking from the backyard, Yunwu stepped forward and took Mrs.
Liu from Yunzhu's hand.
Looking at his cautious look, Mrs.
Liu showed a happy smile on her face.
In the kitchen, Yunzhu's mother and daughter's food had been set aside.
Yunzhu watched Yunwu and Mrs.
Liu enter the house, then went to the kitchen to take out the food and returned to the thatched cottage at the back.
"Mom, I have to go to town with Uncle Ning tomorrow."
While eating, Yunzhu reported to Yunshi how tomorrow will be.
"You kid, why are you always running to town?"
After hearing what Yunzhu said, Yunshi said in confusion.
During this period, her daughter seemed to be going to town every now and then.
Could it be that there was something in town?
