Farming is really not a good job, the family planted not much land, but this summer time, no one is less worried about this land, no less tired for the little food planted in the field, don't care about the city or the countryside, now there is no food to eat, don't care whether you will farm or not, all see the sky rooted here, look at the straw inside, it is really like eyeballs.

Not surprisingly, this year is still a big drought, in order to be able to collect more food, the family members in the morning and evening to carry water to water the ground, there is no other convenient conditions, can only manually use buckets to carry water, so people are very tired each time to pick up the water is still very little, can not solve the fundamental problem, but everyone is in the spirit of being able to collect a little more is a little bit of thought, most people have persevered.

The eight ridges of the Fu family are planted with drought-tolerant crops, and the length of about 100 meters makes the couple divided into four parts, one part of millet and one part of corn, these two kinds of grain are more drought-tolerant.

There is also a middle part of her planting sweet potatoes and potatoes, sweet potatoes are mainly thinking that they can pinch the leaves to eat in summer, and roasting a sweet potato in winter has a unique flavor, potatoes are a must-have for the family, resistant to storage, and all pointed to it in winter.

The above has vaguely said that the supply of winter vegetables this winter may not be timely, so that the families below can prepare some by themselves, or there will be no supply at all, and they will be blind at that time.

So basically every family has a piece of potato growing in the field.

In the end, the closest to the family area is planted with vegetables, Zhou Shining thought that there are more types of vegetables at this time of summer, and she can't count on the supply this year, so she has planted more varieties at home, such as pumpkins, horn melons, cucumbers, beans, persimmons, eggplants, peppers, etc., and she has planted some common vegetables here.

In this way, she and Fu Lei are also busy getting up early and working late, but fortunately, she has a bicycle at home, and it is much more convenient to carry water and water than other people's homes.

Zhou Jiguo knew that after farming at home, when he came back from outside, he brought back two big plastic buckets to his family and tied them to both sides of the back seat of the bicycle, so that it was more convenient to transport water.

It's so busy, and everyone doesn't feel sad, looking at the lush crops in the field, although everyone still can't eat enough, but there is always a hope.

After Zhou Sining came down from the stubble of vegetables in the field in July, she was not diligent in going to the field, she was only responsible for cutting and drying at home to prepare for winter, and the work of watering in the field was thrown to Fu Lei. Fu Lei, who had already covered his white spots because of his clerical work, went back in the dark after these days.

Fu Lei didn't care at all, and shouted in front of his daughter-in-law that this is the true nature of a man.

After September, the weather is a little cold, the harvest in the field has been recovered, the Fu family because of the water enough, the millet received a bag and a half, almost one hundred and fifty catties, corn Zhou Sining planted two kinds, the sticky bud rice is basically eaten up before it is old, and there are not many stupid bud rice left, but the yield of this thing is high, and it is weighed after being harvested, and there are about two hundred catties.

Coupled with the sweet potatoes and potatoes harvested, the country will not provide any grain in the second half of this year, and her family will not be hungry.

Zhou Sining is very pleased with the production in the field, but he is just happy, unlike Fu Lei, the whole bun, looking at the bags of grain at home, he is excited, plus there is a sweet-mouthed girl at home, and I don't know if he really praised his father for being good, this is the end, Fu Lei is not Fu Lei, he plunged into the eight ridges of the field, and said nothing.

Zhou Sining didn't care about him, anyway, it was such a big place, and he was left to toss.

Fu Lei is not a blind toss, he thinks that farming is still feasible, although it is a little harder, but he can see the return, now the food is so tight, he can see his daughter-in-law and daughter-in-law eat well, as a man, the sense of accomplishment is indescribable, in short, he enjoys it very much.

After that, he pulled out all the straw in the field, first put it in the field to dry, and when it was completely dry, he carried it home to be used as firewood, so that he did not even have to cut the reeds.

When the ground was emptied, he poured some seeds of cabbage, turnips, carrots, and spinach and planted them. This is not a random planting, he went to consult experienced people, so he selected these species.

Zhou Sining felt sorry for him and was tired, but seeing him being silly and silly every day, he just told him a few words, and let him go, in this era, it is not easy to find something she likes to do, she better not interfere.

By November, there was no food supply in the public house, only one kind of substitute food, which was made from the leaves, stalks, roots and so on of wheat, rice, corn and other crops. She can't afford such high-grade food, so let's eat her own rice honestly.

It's a weekend again, Zhou Jiguo finally stayed at home for a day, Zhou Sining wanted to make some delicious supplements for his younger brother, don't look at Zhou Jiguo's popularity in the city construction company now (because he can bring something every time he goes out and comes back, so that the leaders greet him with a smile every time they see him), but people are really hard, this year has been running down, the original one hundred and four or five guys are now one hundred and two, standing there and feeling that a gust of wind can blow him away, do you say that you can not feel distressed when you see your sister.

But fortunately, Zhou Jiguo's spirit is very good, those eyes are flashing with the light of wisdom and the precipitation of years, that is to say, although he has been physically destroyed, he is mentally happy, happy, and bright.

"Hurry up and eat, this is all specially made for you by your sister, and your niece and I don't have this treatment. Fu Lei reached out and picked up a piece of bacon, carefully bit off a little fat on it, and put the remaining lean meat in the girl's bowl.

The little girl has never suffered since she was born, so she is a picky eater, eating only lean meat, and not eating fat at all. Zhou Sining felt that this was all habitual, she didn't eat fatty meat back then, but after a few months, she could eat any meat with her eyes closed. It would be nice to tell her that the little girl was hungry for a few meals. But Fu Lei, who is a father, doesn't do it, why do you want to starve my daughter, isn't my daughter just unwilling to eat fatty meat, it just so happens that he doesn't want to eat lean meat, won't the problem of his father and daughter eating half of it be solved.

So now when you go to the table to eat, if the dish is fried with pork belly, Fu Lei will knock off the fat part first, and leave the thin one for the girl to eat.

"Uncle eats, uncle eats. The little girl also shouted for her uncle, but she had a heart, and picked up the fatty meat slices on the plate for her uncle, so that the lean meat was hers, hehe.

Zhou Jiguo didn't know his niece's careful thoughts, he was picked up by his niece, and he was so moved that he almost cried on the spot.

Zhou Sining couldn't help but roll her eyes when she looked at her daughter's treacherous little appearance, and couldn't understand that she was quite upright, so she gave birth to such a girl with many eyes.
