1960s: The crazy life after the alchemy furnace became a spirit

Chapter 38 Planting
Qin Haonan widened his eyes and touched his cheek in disbelief that had just been touched by a pair of soft lips. He felt as if his heart was dancing. This feeling was intoxicating.

Gu Qingwu was a little embarrassed at first. After all, she had been single for three lifetimes and had never tasted the love of a man. How could she not blush when she was so intimate with a man this time? But when she saw Qin Haonan's surprised and surprised expression, she was no longer shy.

"Silly."

She glared at Qin Haonan coquettishly, and Qin Haonan came back to his senses.

He chuckled twice.

"Have a meal."

Gu Qingwu washed her hands and lifted the pot. When she saw clearly what was in the pot, she smiled.

In fact, there were not many vegetables in the pot, just potatoes and eggplants, stewed with soybean paste, which was given by Chen Hongxia.

Unexpectedly, Qin Haonan could still be used. Thinking about the half-year hibernation here, Gu Qingwu felt that she had to prepare some sauce blocks for making soybean paste next year, otherwise, there would be no soybean paste to eat next year.

That won't work. They are the ones who should follow the Romans. Their hometown is neither in the south nor in the north. It's the North China Plain. The winters there are not particularly cold, but the summers are quite hot.

She has already gotten used to the climate over there. When she came here, the thing she was most uncomfortable with was sleeping on the kang in winter. Don't ask me, the only thing I'll say is that it's too dry to sleep on at night.

Recently, she puts a basin of water in her room every night before going to bed, otherwise it would be too dry to sleep at night.

"hehe."

Qin Haonan came back to his senses. He also noticed that Gu Qingwu was embarrassed, so he followed behind Gu Qingwu and started to get busy.

After the two of them had their meal and cleaned up, Qin Haonan took a look at the sky outside.

"How about we go out and digest the food?"

Ever since Gu Qingwu came here, he hasn't accompanied Gu Qingwu around the family compound. Fortunately, he has nothing to do today, the time is not too late, and it is not too cold today, so Qin Haonan plans to take Gu Qingwu for a walk.

"never mind."

Gu Qingwu had no interest in hanging around in the family compound. She didn't get along with the women there. How should I put it? No matter whether they were from the city or the countryside, she couldn't get along with them.

Those who came from the city looked down on her as an orphan, and those who came from the countryside disliked her for being spoiled. She didn't even know when she became spoiled, but since they couldn't get along, she didn't want to put herself in a difficult position.

So, there is no need.

"Are you going to grow anything else in that greenhouse?"

Qin Haonan saw that Gu Qingwu seemed reluctant to go out, so he didn't force her. Instead, he became curious about Gu Qingwu's greenhouse. He had to ask many people for help to get some plastic sheeting. At first, he was curious about what Gu Qingwu wanted to do with it. Now, seeing what Gu Qingwu did, he felt that this thing was actually quite useful.

"Plant, isn't the greenhouse not fully planted?"

Gu Qingwu said with a smile that there are coriander, leeks, spinach, rapeseed, Chinese cabbage and so on in the greenhouse. She plans to grow some eggplants, peppers and tomatoes. If these can be successfully grown, it will be a good thing for people of this era. After all, there are no out-of-season vegetables at this time. If she has experimental results, the army will probably be interested. When the time comes to promote them, won’t she be able to buy whatever she wants to eat in winter?

"Want to raise seedlings?"

Qin Haonan was very experienced in matters such as growing vegetables. As soon as he heard it, he knew that Gu Qingwu was planning to grow something else.

"Actually I want to grow some cucumbers, but the greenhouse is too short to be suitable."

Gu Qingwu said regretfully, it would be great if eggplants, peppers and tomatoes could be grown successfully.

"As for raising seedlings, I can just do it in my room tomorrow."

Gu Qingwu didn't plan to grow seedlings in a greenhouse, because it was a bit troublesome to grow seedlings in a greenhouse. "Is it true that as long as the temperature is high and there is sunlight, you can grow any vegetable?"

Qin Haonan thought about the principles of growing vegetables, which are temperature, humidity and sunlight. As long as these conditions are met, other vegetables should be able to grow well.

"Pollination is also necessary. Vegetables grown in greenhouses will not bear fruit if the flowers are not pollinated."

Gu Qingwu rolled her eyes and said, when planted outside, there is wind and insects to help with pollination, but in the greenhouse, there is nothing to help the plants pollinate.

"Oh."

Qin Haonan nodded suddenly. It turned out that there were so many things to know about growing vegetables. He had not really paid attention to the pollination. If pollination required special attention, it would be troublesome.

"Let's try it first. I plan to grow some cucumbers in our other room."

It is such a happy thing to have fresh cucumbers and tomatoes to eat in winter. Even if she can't grow them in the room, she will cheat and make it successful.

As for whether the army really intends to promote it in the future, Gu Qingwu could also say that there are too many things to pay attention to in greenhouse cultivation, and perhaps one aspect has not been done well.

She planned to give herself a shell as a skilled farmer.

By then, no matter what she grows, no one will find it strange. As for joining the army as a commander or something, at most, she will just read more books.

She believed she could do it.

"Okay."

Qin Haonan did not refuse. After all, it would just waste some time and energy. As long as Gu Qingwu was happy, she could do anything. Of course, this was on the premise that it would not violate national laws. She could do whatever she liked and he would not stop her.

Gu Qingwu nodded.

"Well, find me some boards to nail some wooden boxes tomorrow."

Gu Qingwu can do all these by herself, but why should she do it herself when there is a man in front of her?

"Row."

Qin Haonan was wondering where to find so many wooden boards, and he did not refuse Gu Qingwu.

The two chatted and laughed, and it was already evening.

The two of them slept on the same kang at night, and neither of them felt anything awkward, as if they had already gotten used to it.

This feeling was not only new to Gu Qingwu, but also to Qin Haonan. Soldiers like them would sometimes subconsciously attack the people around them, but he seemed to have never done such a thing, which made Qin Haonan feel a little curious.

Gu Qingwu didn't know what Qin Haonan was thinking. She was closing her eyes and planning to rest. She had already made up her mind that if Qin Haonan couldn't sleep, she would use the method she used yesterday and use her spiritual sense to help Qin Haonan sleep.

She felt that this was actually quite good.

In response to Qin Haonan's concerns, Gu Qingwu said that if a fight really broke out, it would be hard to say who would be beaten.

Qin Haonan noticed Gu Qingwu not far away from him, and he also closed his eyes. As for what was going to happen between him and Gu Qingwu, he had no such idea at the moment, and he felt that Gu Qingwu didn't have such an idea either. He had plenty of time to wait.

Closing his eyes and breathing in the scent of Gu Qingwu that was unique to her, Qin Haonan slowly and steadily fell asleep.
