Thinking of the many books stored in the space, there are some that teach knitting techniques.

Yuzhu asked, "Can Mrs. Xu read?"

Xu Guihua tugged at the ball of yarn. "I only went to the second grade, and my studies weren't very good. Then my mother sent me back home to do farm work."

Yuzhu, "Then ask your Captain Jiang to buy you a knitting tutorial."

Xu Guihua, "That book is so expensive. Teacher Lin once lent it to me. The patterns are really beautiful, with all kinds of styles, but I can't understand it. The pictures make me dizzy."

It seems that Teacher Lin Hui is a decent person, but she is impatient to deal with Mrs. Jiang and teach her.

"Then you didn't take the map, so you asked Captain Jiang?"

Xu Guihua said with a bitter face, "I asked him, and he threw it far away to me, saying that since I didn't have the chicken feet, I shouldn't knit. The clothes he gave me were enough for me."

"Hahaha!" Lu Yuzhu couldn't help laughing. It seemed that even the man in her family was annoyed with her.

Looking at the simple and annoying sister-in-law opposite her, Lu Yuzhu felt a little distressed.

"Don't be angry with them. They all have legitimate jobs and are busy enough at work all day. How could they have the energy to deal with you when they get home?"

Xu Guihua looked at Lu Yuzhu, her eyes flashing, "Then both of us have no careers, and I will bother you in the future."

Lu Yuzhu immediately retracted her thoughts.

The idea of giving her a knitting book disappeared in an instant.

"Although I don't have a career, I still manage all the housework inside and outside the house, as well as the backyard. Don't look at me as a quick worker, I hate knitting the most."

Seeing that the other party was a little disappointed, Lu Yuzhu saw that the sweaters in his hands were about to be put in another row.

"But I did learn a simple trick at home. We're all stupid, so we don't do complicated things. Let's just do this."

"Okay!" Xu Guihua was happy again in an instant.

Lu Yuzhu pointed at the knitting needle and said, "Pick up two loops with this stitch and wrap the thread around it and bring it out.

Next comes another stitch.

Then add two more stitches, spacing them out like this. Try making two rows first, and you’ll see the simple pattern.”

"Ah! This is easy." Xu Guixiang instantly gained confidence.

I knitted two rows in a row and just stopped. I found that the yarn I was knitting was no longer the same old flat stitches. The smile on my face never stopped.

"Thank you so much! We two cobblers have become as good as Zhuge Liang!"

Lu Yuzhu took the yarn from his hand and said, "Have you noticed that every time you turn the yarn, you pull the needle a little bit, the stitches will become smoother, and the problem of tight stitches and loose stitches will be alleviated."

Xu Guihua took the knitting needle and said, "It's good enough if you can knit it, but you still have to pay attention to this and that."

Then she felt a little embarrassed and said, "Okay, I'll just be more careful next time. Once I finish this sweater, I'll ask you for the next pattern."

Lu Yuzhu, "No, I don't like knitting, and I don't know how to knit too much. The trick you just learned can be transformed into many different patterns."

She just wants to be a one-time master.

“When you make the next garment, you can double-needle and add two plain stitches, then double-needle and add two plain stitches again, and the pattern will be different.

Or maybe we can do a three-stitch combination, add a flat stitch, and then do a three-stitch jump. Isn't that a new pattern?"

Xu Guihua put down the knitting needle with her right hand and slapped her thigh, "Oh, right, isn't this stupid? I will also learn to invent things in the future, hahahaha."

Seeing that the sun was setting outside, Lu Yuzhu took a small shovel and went outside to the yard. She planted some seeds in the turned soil and added some black soil.

This is better than fertilizer.

Xu Guihua picked up her sweater, picked up the small stool, and followed him out of the yard.

She reached the side of the courtyard wall and continued knitting her sweater.

It's shady here and a bit cool.

Yuzhu also spread some black soil on the vegetable garden in the yard and poured some spiritual spring water into it.

In just a few days, some of them have already sprouted.

I cooked porridge in the evening and made two large pots of scallion oil dry pancakes.

It is also delicious even without adding eggs, just salt and green onions.

When Xiaolong came over to play, Lu Yuzhu tore off two palm-sized pieces and handed them to him.

It happened that Brother Jianguo came back and immediately closed the gate. He was covered in sweat and wanted to take a shower in the yard.

Lu Yuzhu took out a teapot of hot water, and then took out her shorts and white vest and placed them on a small stool in the yard.

Go back to the house and serve porridge and side dishes.

Brother Jianguo wiped his wet black hair, sat down, and gulped down a mouthful of porridge, feeling cool and thirst-quenching.

Looking at his young wife with a smile, a feeling of happiness filled his chest.

Lu Yuzhu pulled off a piece of scallion pancake and handed it to him, a gentle smile in her eyes, "Eat slowly!"

Brother Jianguo said, "The vegetable garden behind the house is large. It's hot now, so you can take a break for two days. Wait until I'm done with this busy period and have turned the soil over, then you can plant."

Lu Yuzhu handed over half of the salted duck egg and said, "I have nothing to do at home, so I can just work for a while and then rest. I won't tire myself out."

She has already decided to plant some vegetables in the small yard at home, including the one in front of the door.

He plans to plant ginger and radishes in the backyard, set up a few sturdy tripods, and plant some climbing fruits and beans.

With the blessing of black soil, there is no need to worry, there will definitely be a good harvest.

The next morning, she carried her hoe and went to the land behind the house to work.

She wanted to build a vegetable garden bigger than Captain Jiang's home.

After a few days of hard work, it has begun to take shape.

This speed left Xu Guihua dumbfounded.

When I have free time, I enter the space again and use straw to twist hemp ropes and weave straw curtains in the cool air.

I learned all of this in the countryside.

It will be very useful this winter.

Windy and rainy weather, especially snow, is like putting a layer of warm clothes on the vegetables.

By the time Zhou Jianguo found some dead branches and bamboo poles for him, the fence of the vegetable garden had been completed.

Seeing Xu Guihua's stunned look, Battalion Commander Jiang laughed sarcastically.

"Don't you think you're from the countryside and no one can catch up with you in farm work? Look at Deputy Commander Zhou's wife, she's a city girl, she's only been in the countryside for three years, and yet she can do a job better than you can."

Xu Guihua said embarrassedly, "Wasn't I also busy like this the first year we arrived?"

She was also wondering why Xiao Lu couldn't get a tan.

Early in the morning, Lu Yuzhu was waiting at the door with her old canvas bag on her back. The jeep that came to pick up Teacher Lin Hui had arrived again.

She immediately went to meet him, "Comrade Chen, can I take a ride? I need to go to town to buy some things."

Xiao Chen said politely, "Sister-in-law, come up. It's on the way anyway. The fried dough sticks you made the other day were delicious."

Lu Yuzhu, "Then I'll do it next time and call you again."

Lin Hui and Liu Xiaorou have already come out.

As soon as Xiaorou was carried into the car, she saw an acquaintance, "Auntie Xiaolu, you're here too!"

Lu Yuzhu tilted her head and acted cute, "Yeah! This is my first time here, and I didn't bring everything with me. I went to town to buy some more."
