After washing, the family went back to their rooms to rest, and at half past three in the afternoon, Xiao Ming's family got up, packed up the kitchen knife, closed the door, and walked towards the sugarcane field.

When I arrived, my mother looked at it again, and immediately smiled and said, "If you don't catch the market tomorrow, you can only let someone else collect it." ”

There is a sugar factory in the city of Xjiang, which often comes down to harvest sugar cane. You Ma didn't sell it, so she sold it all to them at a lower price.

The family began to chop again, and after chopping for a while, Xiao Ming asked his mother: "Mom, is all the remaining sugarcane cut down?"

My mother immediately said, "Cut down these bends and let those bosses take them, we can't sell them." ”

The two siblings nodded and said yes, and cut all the bends in the afternoon. After cutting for a long time, Xiao Ming looked at his watch, and it was almost six o'clock.

Xiao Ming immediately told his mother, and her mother told the third sister to stop and peel off the leaves of these cut sugarcane first.

The two siblings nodded yes, and the family put down the kitchen knife and began to peel the leaves, which were put together after peeling.

With the efforts of the family, it was finally finished after an hour. By this time, it was already dark, and the family finally breathed a sigh of relief.

Hurry up and help tie these ten sugarcane together, take the grain grass on the ground, and Xiao Ming bundle it alone.

You's mother and the third sister tied it together, and it was soon finished. The family hurriedly carried it back, and when it was dark, they finally finished carrying it, and put all the sugar cane into the hall.

You Ma called water, and after the family washed their faces and hands, You Ma immediately said loudly: "Xiao Ming, third sister, let's eat noodles tonight!"

The two siblings nodded and said yes, went to the kitchen to light the fire, and began to cook noodles.

You Ma fed the livestock and silkworms, and quickly cooked the noodles, Xiao Ming shouted to his mother to eat noodles, and the family sat down and began to eat noodles.

Under the white fluorescent lamp, each person has a poached egg in their bowl, and various spices are put on it, which is full of fragrance, and the family eats it with a big mouthful.

After eating, the third sister packed up the dishes and went to wash. Xiao Ming went to hot bath water.

After the heat was good, the family washed up and rested.

The next morning, after cooking breakfast, You Ma and the two siblings finished their busy house, closed the door, and carried the sugar cane to the street together.

Xiao Ming carried it alone, carried by You's mother and the third sister, and rested twice on the road before finally arriving on the street.

After arriving, Mama You put down the sugar cane, let the third sister guard here, and told her that if someone came to collect it, tell him to wait here, and we will go back and carry them all.

The third sister nodded and said okay, and You's mother and Xiao Ming went back again.

The third sister waited patiently there, few people came, maybe it was too early, and the owner of the sugar cane harvest had not yet driven down.

You Ma and Xiao Ming ran back and forth many times, the two of them were sweating profusely, and You Ma asked the third sister: "Has the boss been here?"

Xiao Ming looked at his watch, and it was almost nine o'clock in the morning.

The third sister looked at her mother and second brother, and immediately said, "I haven't been here yet." ”

Xiao Ming immediately said loudly: "Mom, it's only nine o'clock, maybe the boss hasn't come down yet." ”

You's mother nodded and said okay, the sugarcane at home has been lifted. I wiped my sweat and said loudly, "Okay, let's go cut again." Xiao Ming, you stay here first, your sister and I will cut it, and when someone comes to collect it, you will sell it. ”

Xiao Ming wiped his sweat and said okay, and his mother and third sister turned around and left.

Xiao Ming took out the scale and put it there to see if anyone bought it?

After a while, the mother and the third sister went to the sugar cane field again, and there were still some straight ones in the field that had not been cut, and now they began to cut again.

After peeling the sugarcane leaves, they have set them aside and let the sun dry, so that they can be picked up and used as firewood.

I also have to leave some sugarcane for planting, and it will be good to plant next year. Therefore, the remaining sugarcane with straight and large roots can only be sold, and at least two bundles must be kept.

An hour later, the owner of the sugar cane harvest finally arrived. I saw a truck coming, and the driver and master got down together.

They walked over to Xiao Ming, looked at the sugarcane on the ground and asked, "Boss, do you want to sell this sugarcane?"

Xiao Ming nodded and said with a smile, and the two bosses asked with a smile: "Boss, how much is your sugarcane here?" ”

Xiao Ming immediately said loudly: "At least four dimes a pound!"

A boss flipped through the sugarcane with his hand, and then said loudly: "Boss, your sugarcane is all bent, or you can't get this price." How about a pound of triangular money?"

Xiao Ming looked at them and said loudly: "It's very hard for us to plant some sugarcane, we have to put fertilizer, we have to kill insects, and we have to carry it here for you to harvest." This price is already the lowest. ”

The two bosses looked carefully at the sugar cane on the ground again, sighed and said loudly: "That's it, how about Triangle Five?"

Xiao Ming thought about it for a while, and it was five cents more than last year's price, so he had to nod and say okay.

The two bosses immediately went to the car to get the scales and began to weigh the sugarcane on the ground.

The two bosses weigh and set them aside until they are all weighed.

After weighing, I took a closer look at it, and felt that there was no insect-beating sugarcane, so they asked for it.

Half an hour later, when the weighing was finally finished, a boss took out a notebook and pen and wrote the number on it.

Then he began to count the money, a total of two hundred and eighty-five pounds, and the boss asked Xiao Ming if it was so much?

Xiao Ming nodded yes, and he also calculated it in his heart.

The boss immediately took out his wallet and gave the money to Xiao Ming, Xiao Ming took the money and counted it, and then said, "We still have some at home, do you want to collect it the day after tomorrow?"

The two bosses can say yes, and immediately ask if there is anyone else to sell today?

Xiao Ming immediately said, "Maybe there will be someone in the afternoon." You should be back in the afternoon, right?"

The two bosses nodded yes, Xiao Ming thanked them and turned away.

The two bosses loaded all the sugar cane into the van and found a place to eat on the street.

Xiao Ming Dynasty walked to the sugarcane field of his own family, and You's mother and third sister had already cut a lot of them and piled them there.

When Xiao Ming arrived, he called his mother loudly, and his mother stopped and asked loudly, "Xiao Ming, are you sold out?"

Xiao Ming immediately said loudly: "Yes, they are still there, and they will be collected in the afternoon, let's carry all the things that are to be sold here!"

Mom hurriedly asked the third sister to stop and peel all the sugarcane leaves here, and the third sister nodded and said yes.

The family began to peel sugarcane leaves, and after peeling them for a long time, they finally finished peeling.

Xiao Ming looked at the time, it was almost eleven o'clock, Xiao Ming asked his mother, do you want to carry it now?

Mom asked Xiao Ming if he was hungry now, and if he wasn't hungry, he would carry him first. Tell the third sister to go back to cook first.

The third sister nodded and said yes, turned around and left with a kitchen knife, and her mother and Xiao Ming carried these curved sugar canes to the street together.

After two breaks, they soon arrived on the street, and the two bosses went to eat.

Xiao Ming and his mother had to put the sugarcane there, and his mother guarded it here, and Xiao Ming went to fight the rest of the sugarcane.

In this way, Xiao Ming ran back and forth several times, tired and sweaty. After the two bosses finished eating, they finally came over again.

Xiao Ming immediately told them that this was the remaining sugar cane. There was still in the field, and my mother watched them weigh the sugarcane, and one of the bosses wrote down the amount.

Then I said that it was a triangular five pounds, and I calculated the total amount, and said how much it was? The boss immediately took out his wallet and gave her the money.

This time it was only ninety-five pounds, and my mother counted the money and said yes. Mom told them to wait and carry it over. The two bosses nodded and said yes.

The mother turned around and left, and in this way, the two mothers and sons went back and forth a few times, tired and sweaty, before finally moving the rest here.

The two bosses weighed the number, wrote down the number in the notebook, and calculated the total number?

Then I told them, this time it was eighty-five pounds, and I told them how much it was? One of the bosses immediately took out his wallet and gave them the money.

Mom took the money and counted it, smiled and said yes. The boss immediately asked if they still had any?

My mother smiled and said, "There are still dozens of catties, and I have to eat them myself." ”

The two bosses nodded and said yes, and the two mothers and sons thanked them and turned around and went home.

On the way home, my mother said as she walked, "Now that it's sold out, don't worry! ”

Xiao Ming smiled and said yes, and the two mothers and sons walked home slowly. When I got home, my mother called the third sister loudly and asked her if she had cooked a good meal?

The third sister heard it and said that she was stir-frying! Xiao Ming hurriedly went to fetch water and wash her hands, and her mother went to the kitchen to look.

After the third sister returned home, she fed the domestic animals in the family first, and cooked the rice after feeding, so she is still stir-frying.

Mom hurried over to help, and Xiao Ming poured the money from selling sugar cane on the table and counted it. I counted it twice, and it sold for a total of one hundred and sixty-two dollars.

At this time, the meal was already cooked, and his mother asked Xiao Ming to eat! After Xiao Ming packed the money, the family sat down and began to eat lunch.

Mom asked while eating, "Xiao Ming, how much did you sell today?"

Xiao Ming said immediately, and his mother said while eating: "We will buy the rest ourselves, and we may have to sell it for a hundred yuan." ”

The two siblings nodded yes, and after eating quickly, the family went to rest after they were busy.

At half past three in the afternoon, You's mother closed the door, and the family went out again.

It should be all cut this afternoon, and the rest are some big roots, and the weather has not been hot for the past two days, so it is slightly better to do the work.

The family worked hard until they had cut all the sugar cane in the field. Xiao Ming looked at the time, it was already six o'clock, and his mother took a breath and said, "Alas, it's finally finished, let's go home after peeling the leaves of these sugarcane." ”

The family put down their kitchen knives and began to peel the sugarcane leaves, by which time it was almost dark.

You's mother hurriedly asked the two siblings to carry them home, and it was already dark when they brought back all the sugarcane in the field.

The two brothers and sisters breathed a sigh of relief, called water to wash their hands and faces, You's mother said let's eat noodles tonight, and the two brothers and sisters nodded and said okay.

Immediately went to the kitchen to cook noodles, You's mother was busy with other things at home, and after it was cooked quickly, the family sat down to eat noodles.
