Flowers in full bloom

Chapter 431: Praise and Pressure

Soon, Rong Jin found out about this and was so angry that he wanted to beat her up. However, after Hua Lei got over the initial shock and confusion, she wasn't that angry anymore.

After all, everyone has different ideas. People from small families are easier to control and are better at business. Lord Fang must have seen this and asked the matchmaker to come to his house.

Anyway, I have already refused, and the matter has passed, so why should I get angry over such an irrelevant person. After persuading the angry Rong Jin, I still did what I had to do.

However, within a few days, the news that Hua Lei was Pei Rongjin's fiancée from Zhenbei Marquis's Mansion spread quietly. After hearing this, Hua Lei thought it was Rongjin's operation, so she smiled and did not stop it. If this can block some bad peach blossoms, it is a good method.

Life still passes slowly. Recently, Hualei has started to go to the Agriculture Bureau frequently, because the rapeseed seedlings at the bureau have been raised and are being transplanted to the fields.

Although they were all experienced farmers and didn't need Hualei to give them any advice, Hualei still had to complete his own duties. Therefore, he often followed his superiors and shuttled through the official fields where rapeseed was transplanted.

It needs watering and fertilizing. The plants are planted too densely. Huabud doesn't need to do anything, but he still needs to pay attention and cannot make any mistakes.

Because this rapeseed field, like the corn field, was also divided into sections, Hualei was allocated 400 acres. Alas, she received the same salary as others, but her workload was twice that of others. Hualei was very unhappy.

But there is no way, the boss's words "the more capable you are, the more work you will do" are both a compliment and a heavy pressure. So, recently, Hualei has been shuttling back and forth between these official fields every day.

Things on my own Flower-Fruit Mountain are very busy, weeding, watering, fertilizing, and carrying out different maintenance tasks according to the different plants.

Last year, after all the sweet potatoes and land on the east and south slopes of Dongshan were harvested, the flower buds were planted with wheat. The wheat is starting to fill with grain, and the rapeseed flowers in the basin have also begun to bloom.

This was the first time for Hualei to plant rapeseed, and it was winter sowing, so his experience was still a little insufficient. He read a lot of books and referred to the experience of people in the north in planting rapeseed.

Hualei discovered that there are many things that need to be paid attention to during the flowering period of rapeseed, and special attention should be paid to pests and diseases, irrigation, and fertilization, so he took the time to go to the basin to check the rapeseed he planted.

After a thorough inspection, I found that there were no diseases or insect pests, but there seemed to be a lack of water and fertilizer. Rapeseed is a crop that likes fertilizer, especially during the flowering period, it needs more water and fertilizer so that the rapeseed seeds can be fuller.

However, the rapeseed field at home seemed a little hardened, some flowers were unable to bloom, and some were wilted. It should be due to lack of water. So, I immediately asked Uncle Fu to open the wooden gate of the pond and start watering the rapeseed.

She continued to inspect the rapeseed field, and when Hua Bud reached the central area, she found that many rapeseed plants' leaves and petioles had purple spots.

"Burning" phenomena are also seen on the edges of the leaves, and some leaves have light brown dead spots, which should be due to lack of fertilizer.

So, Hualei found someone and brought a boatload of wood ash from Huayingzhuang. They scattered the ash on the roots of the rapeseed plants and sprinkled some rice water on it, letting the ash water enter the soil along with the water so that the rapeseed could better absorb nutrients.

Then, Uncle Zhao from Baihua Village was asked to move more than a dozen boxes of bees over. On the one hand, this allowed the bees to collect nectar, and on the other hand, it increased the pollination rate of rapeseed flowers, thereby increasing rapeseed yields.

Next is the season when rape flowers bloom. In order to prevent people from picking and trampling on them, Huabud has erected several wooden signs beside the rape fields to prevent others from picking them at will.

Hualei discovered that since the barren mountain around her was transformed, especially after many people knew that rapeseed could be used to produce oil, many people have come here to hang out recently.

It is impossible to fence off such a large area and prevent others from looking. Maybe some people just come to take a look and ask for some planting experience or something.

Hualei is not secretive about these things, and allows farmers to tell those who ask for advice on planting experience everything they know.

She was afraid that others would see the bright yellow rapeseed flowers and think they were rare. If you picked one bunch and she picked two, it would be very troublesome. This kind of thing was seen a lot on the Internet in the previous life. So, she deliberately put up a wooden sign prohibiting picking.

What she didn't know was that her rapeseed field had long been secretly guarded by Emperor Shengwu's shadow guards, just like the corn field in front of her. So she was worrying for no reason.

This year, Hualei's family moved their corn planting to Huayingzhuang, because it is best to rotate corn every year. Otherwise, if it is always planted in the same field, it will easily be infected with diseases and pests, and the yield will also be low.

So, this year, Hualei planted corn at Huaying Manor. One day, when she was patrolling her own cornfield, Qingying came over and reported that Bai Yunhe had come to the manor to find her.

Although she didn't know what Bai Yunhe wanted to talk to her about, Hua Lei still hurried back to the manor. In the study, Bai Yunhe, dressed in a dark brown robe, sat there silently, with the teacup beside him emitting a lingering fragrance, but he didn't move.

Seeing Hua Lei coming in, Bai Yunhe stood up from his chair. Hua Lei was a little surprised to see Bai Yunhe. The last time she saw him at the martial arts competition, although she only saw him from a distance, he was much more energetic than now.

Why did the Bai Yunhe in front of him become much thinner, look very bad-looking, and look listless?

"Miss Hua, excuse me for being so rude. I came here to talk to you about something." Bai Yunhe spoke first.

"Okay, Mr. Bai, please take a seat. I wonder what you want to talk to me about?" Hua Lei extended her hand to invite Bai Yunhe to sit down, and she also sat down on the other side of the desk.

"I..." Bai Yunhe hesitated to speak.

Hua Lei looked at him and smiled, "Mr. Bai, just say what you want to say. We have been doing business together for several years, so we are old acquaintances."

Bai Yunhe nodded, but there was still some hesitation on his face.

"Mr. Bai, do you want to withdraw the money in your account? No problem. I'll ask someone to prepare it for you no matter how much you want." Hua Lei thought that Bai Yunhe wanted to withdraw the money that had not been withdrawn from the wool sweater business, so she asked first.

"Miss Hua, I'm here to say goodbye to you today. I...I'm going to Western Xinjiang."
