Chapter 919 She Is Also a Teacher

They used to eat barbecue at home, and Du Shi was the best at it, especially the grilled pork chop, which tasted amazing.

"Spring is warm and the flowers are blooming, which is the best time to go out and enjoy the flowers. We also have a taste of it."

Hearing her mother-in-law's suggestion, Zhang Yishan was stunned, thinking about an outing in the countryside. It would be really lively when there were so many people.

"Don't worry, mother, I'll leave this matter to my wife, and I will prepare it together with my eldest sister."

"Leave the barbecue ingredients to Anya, and you are responsible for the invitations. The time is set in three days, and we will have a picnic together."

Bai Yunxi looked at them with bright eyes. They were all young people. How could they not like to go out and play?

Watching the two of them leaving together, discussing the ingredients for the barbecue, Bai Yunxi leaned on the soft cushion and told Aunt Zhu, "There are green hills at home to watch. It doesn't matter whether anyone is left in the backyard. You can bring whatever you want with you." Just one more carriage."

"You are pleasant and kind-hearted. The slaves are very grateful. It doesn't matter if they all go. It is just convenient to take care of the guests."

There are not many girls and women in the family, so if we set out together, we would need three carriages.

Because the banquet was temporarily decided, Baiyun Xi was not idle. Early the next morning, he took people to the orchard again.

Clean the play area, set up a shed, and prepare a barbecue grill. Fortunately, I collected a lot of fruit wood a while ago, which is perfect for barbecue.

Seeing the girl and mother-in-law busy in full swing, Baiyunxi couldn't help, so she just strolled in the orchard. From a distance, she saw Ge Hai holding a big pair of scissors and making famous pruning signs in front of the pear tree, and then he remembered that he had forgotten something. asked.

Seeing how carefully he observed, Bai Yunxi stood aside and didn't bother him. He didn't stop until he repaired a pear tree.

Although the branches were pruned correctly, the speed was too slow and inefficient.

"Are you literate?"

Hearing Baiyunxi's inquiry, Ge Hai turned around and saw Baiyunxi, and saluted quickly.

"My family is poor and has no money to support my education."

Why did his employer ask him about literacy? Did he not want to use him anymore?

"Boss, even if I am illiterate, I can do my job well and I will never be lazy."

Seeing the anxious look, Bai Yunxi waved his hand.

"I know this. I think your method of pruning fruit trees is good, but the speed is too slow. I have a fruit tree maintenance manual in my hand. If you are literate, you can read it yourself. If you are not literate, you can only ask others to read it to you."

Hearing that his boss was not driving him away, Ge Hai sighed. As for the manual, he didn't understand it.

Bai Yunxi took out a booklet from the locker and asked Ge Hai to follow him. Together they returned to the persimmon tree and asked Pomegranate to bring two chairs.

"Don't be in a hurry when pruning fruit trees. Sit down and listen carefully. I'll tell you a few things to pay attention to first."

The manual contains jingles for pruning fruit trees. Memorizing them can save a lot of time.

"I'll teach you to recite a jingle first. Once you've memorized it, you can think about it and see if it makes sense."

Seeing Ge Hai's serious attitude, Bai Yunxi opened the booklet,

"If a fruit tree wants to grow well and bear fruit, it is very important to prune it regularly...not to leave the top in the south, not in the north, not low in the east, and not high in the west."

"It means that the fruit trees in the south will not leave their upper branches, the fruit trees in the north will not leave their upper branches, and the fruit trees in the west will not leave their upper branches..."

Baiyunxi explained it to him from beginning to end. Seeing that he was still confused, he took him directly to a pear tree and demonstrated it to him according to the formula.

Looking at Ge Hai's expression of sudden realization, he continued,

"Cut it up but not down, and the nutrients will be pushed down. It is ventilated and light-transmissive, and the inner hall will be more effective..."

A pear tree was used to explain to him on the spot. When the pear tree was pruned according to the formula, Baiyunxi was sweating from exhaustion.

"If you memorize the formula and understand it clearly, your pruning efficiency will increase exponentially."

"Thank you for your trust, my boss, and your willingness to teach me your skills."

Even if he is illiterate, he still knows that what his boss taught him is precious. These days, most people don’t dare to plant fruit trees because they are difficult to take care of. The trees grow very tall, but they don’t bear fruit. But the trick the boss said today is much better than what he thought about on his own.

This is a craft to support a family, and his boss actually taught him it without batting an eye.

The owner trusts him, and he will definitely go all out to help the owner take care of the orchard.

Otherwise, he would be disrespectful to his employer and his craftsmanship.

Listening to Ge Hai's thoughts, Baiyun Xi cleared his throat, "Just because I trust you, I hope you can learn more and help me take care of this orchard."

Not only her farming skills but also her orchard management skills are no secret to her.

The more people learn it, the more food they can harvest, which is a good thing for farmers.

But she also knows that human nature is greedy. Therefore, once the Shennong Manual in her hand appears, it will only bring trouble to the family.

Therefore, whenever there is a suitable opportunity, she will learn the contents of Shennong's manual and pass it on to the tenants, so that they can directly benefit.

Hearing Bai Yunxi's enthusiasm, Ge Hai was very excited. He put the scissors on the ground, rubbed his hands on his body, knelt on the ground and kowtowed.

"You taught me the craft of making a living, which is equivalent to a reborn parent. Ge Hai will definitely live up to your expectations."

Although he is illiterate, he must have a conscience and be grateful.

"Okay, memorize the formulas by heart. After a while, I will have someone read you the other contents."

Bai Yunxi put the book away, turned and left.

Ge Hai looked at his boss's leaving figure and raised his hand to wipe his eyes. Since he became lame, he has heard a lot of ridicule and seen a lot of supercilious looks. Apart from his family, this is the first time someone has been so kind to him.

People in the village say that rich and powerful people are mean and vicious, and the common people cannot afford to offend them, so they have to avoid them when they see them.

But now he has a different view. He has met a good boss. Not only is he kind, but he is also willing to teach them their skills. He really has met a living Bodhisattva.

It took most of a day to set up the shed in front of the house, level the ground, and prepare the barbecue racks and charcoal.

In addition, a simple stove was built to boil water, and a beggar's chicken could be roasted in the stove.

"Yi Ren, everything is ready. It's getting late, we should go back."

Pomegranate took off her apron, washed her hands, and walked over to report.

"Just pack up and go home to rest."

Baiyun Xi stood up, and the group of people came and left in a hurry.

As soon as I got home, Zhang Yishan came over.

"Mom, the post has been sent out. Both the Xu family and the Wu family said they would come as promised and meet at the city gate the day after tomorrow to go to the orchard together."

"That's good. We've prepared it at the orchard. We can just go there with the ingredients the day after tomorrow."

Bai Yunxi nodded, briefly explained a few words, and then sent people away. I taught Ge Hai for a long time today, and she was so exhausted that she had to take a rest. (End of chapter)
