Chapter 276 pest control
Su Yuanyuan asked Zhao Yanli to help look after the livestock at home while she drove to the city. She found the herbs at the pharmacy.
She bought all the herbs in a hurry and rushed home.
Directly set up a stove at the edge of the field, Li Hongxiang, the trio, and the Zhao sisters also came over.
The herbs were boiled, and the six of them each took a bucket, using sorghum stalks dipped in the herbal concoction to spray the cotton seedlings.
Su Yuanyuan watched carefully and felt it was effective, so she told both families to take the buckets back to their own cotton fields for spraying.
She was alone, boiling herbs and spraying them. She didn’t sleep for three nights, and after three days, the cotton on each family’s ten acres was sprayed, more than half of the pests on the seedlings sprayed the first day were dead.
Now all three families were confident. "Mr. Li, let’s do another round. This remedy works.
Xiao Li, you should send some over to the big brother’s place. I think the city should deliver these days. Anyway, if we can save some, it’s already good."
Everyone started the second round of spraying again.
Zhao Qingxiang and his brothers acted immediately upon hearing their sister’s words, each family having ten acres of cotton.
But back then, ten acres were planted very sparsely, not like now.
The Zhao Brothers knew this was hope. Initially, they thought this year’s cotton harvest would be a failure. Unexpectedly, there was hope.
