Chapter 106: The autumn harvest is over
The heavy rain came quickly and quickly, and Chen Changshan, who saw this scene, could only order all families to hurry up and put away the grain despite the rain.
Even if the whole brigade rushed to harvest it, when all the rice was collected in the house, it would already be more than half an hour later.
All the rice in this threshing field at the entrance of the brigade department was temporarily put into the house of the brigade headquarters.
The people who helped to harvest the rice were now also sheltering from the rain in the brigade headquarters, and the whole house was packed.
Because the rain outside is getting heavier and heavier, those who just wanted to leave in the rain can only stay here.
This includes Song Xiaoling's father and daughter, Song Xiaoling said: "Dad, I don't know how my mother and Xiaojun are at home? This rain is getting heavier and heavier, it's really a little uneasy." ”
Song's father said: "It's okay daughter, our family's grain has been collected in the granary, and there is nothing in the family that is afraid of rain." ”
Song Xiaoling thought for a while: Yes, on this rainy day, her mother will not walk around, her mother still has this bit of proportion, after all, she has a big belly!
As soon as the father and daughter finished speaking, they heard a few old men there chattering, "This rain is evil!"
The old man returned: "Yes, look at this thunder and rain, and it is raining so much, normally only Fu will have such a heavy rain." ”
"Yes, yes, if it hadn't been harvested early, all this rice would have to be soaked in water. The old man also chimed in.
At this time, the old man said in a low voice: "I said brothers, two months ago, didn't God warn me that the three-year catastrophe would begin? ”
When Old Man B and Old Man C heard Old Man A's words, they all frowned, and at the same time thought in their hearts: It seems that the rest of the surplus grain at home cannot be sold except for the grain paid to the public.
The rain rained for three days, from the beginning of the downpour to the later drizzle.
Most of the people in the village have been drenched in the rain, so although it has rained for the past three days, most of the people in the village are busy.
What are you busy doing? Busy drying the rice! Although the drying is timely, some of the rice is still covered with heat, and although it can be eaten, it cannot be paid for public grain.
After the rain stopped, all the laborers in Guangming Village threw themselves into the intense autumn harvest.
Today is the last day of the autumn harvest, and all the land in the village has been harvested, and after dinner, a family of four sat on the kang and chatted as usual.
Father Song said, "Lingzi, how many days do you have to start school?"
Song Xiaoling returned: "There are still three days. ”
Father Song said, "I'm going to the commune tomorrow, do you want to go?"
Before Song Xiaoling could speak, she heard Song Xiaojun hurriedly say, "Dad, I'll go!"
Father Song said, "Okay, then our family of four will all go." ”
Mother Song said, "The three of you go, I won't go." I stayed at home to take care of the family, and I didn't feel at ease if no one looked at me with so much food at home. ”
Father Song thought about it and felt that it made sense, although it was said that the public security was good now, there were still some petty thieves in the village.
Thinking of this, Father Song said, "Daughter-in-law, then let Lingzi accompany you at home!"
Song Xiaoling also said at this time: "Yes, mother, I will accompany you at home tomorrow, and I won't go to the commune." ”
Mother Song touched Song Xiaoling's little head and said, "It's still my daughter's intimacy! But tomorrow you and your father will go to the commune for a stroll, I found your Aunt Chen to accompany me to make clothes!"
Song Xiaoling said: "Really, mother?"
Mother Song said, "It's true." So you're going to the commune with your dad tomorrow!"
Song Xiaoling laughed and said, "Hehe, mother, you should pay attention to your safety at home!"
Early the next morning, Song's father borrowed an ox cart and drove Song Xiaoling and Song Xiaojun towards the commune.
After an hour and a half, the ox cart carried by Song's father finally drove into the commune.
Father Song parked the ox cart at the door of Old Man Qin's house, and dragged Old Man Qin to look at Song Xiaojun and Song Xiaoling, and Father Song walked towards Director Zhang's house alone.
Father Song received a message from Director Zhang yesterday saying that the issue of Uncle Li Jian's family registration had been resolved.
But he was very busy these days and didn't have time to go to Guangming Village. I can only ask Father Song to take the time to come to the commune, so that he can explain the matter.
Father Song walked for less than 20 minutes before he came to Director Zhang's house.
At this time, it was not half past seven, so Father Song came to Zhang's house to find Director Zhang.
Father Song knocked on the door and said, "Is Brother Zhang at home? I'm Zhiyuan!"
After a while, I heard someone inside respond: "It's coming, it's coming." ”
After opening the door, Director Zhang opened his mouth and said, "Zhiyuan, you are here! Come into the house, let's talk in the house." ”
Father Song should arrive: "Okay, Brother Zhang." ”
After the two entered the house, Father Song didn't see Shen Hong and asked, "Brother Zhang, where is my sister-in-law?"
Director Zhang replied: "Your sister-in-law has returned to her parents' house with the child. ”
Father Song said, "Oh, Brother Zhang, did you let me come this time, is there any progress in my eldest brother's household registration?"
Director Zhang returned: "Yes, I asked you to come this time because I have already found a good person for this matter." ”
Father Song said, "Really, Brother Zhang, thank you so much! ”
Director Zhang replied with a smile: "Zhiyuan, don't say that, in fact, I really didn't help in this matter." ”
Father Song asked, "Brother Zhang is not you, who is that?"
Director Zhang said, "Listen to me tell you......"
It turned out that this was the case, after Song's father begged Director Zhang, Shen Hong went to the unit to ask her colleague when she went to work that day.
Her colleague (that is, Officer Xiao Li) also promised Shen Hong to go back when she had time and ask her cousin.
But during that time, the work in the commune was also very busy. So Officer Xiao Li never took the time to go back to his parents' house.
It wasn't until half a month ago that Officer Xiao Li took the time to go back to her parents' house, but when she went to work the next day, her face was not very good.
Shen Hong, at a glance, knew that this matter might not be smooth.
Really. When Officer Xiao Li saw Shen Hong, he said to her: "Sister Hong, I'm really embarrassed, I may not be able to help with that matter." ”
Shen Hong is a hearty character, and when she saw this, she asked, "Xiao Li, I see that your face is not very good, is something wrong?"
Xiao Li returned: "Since Sister Hong asked, I won't hide it from you, I won't know until I go back to my parents' house this time." ”
Officer Xiao Li paused, took a deep breath, and continued: "It turns out that my cousin was seriously injured and hospitalized while on a mission last week and was in a coma. ”
As Officer Xiao Li spoke, his eyes turned red.
Seeing this, Shen Hong comforted: "Xiao Li, don't be too sad, your cousin will definitely get better." ”
Officer Xiao Li glanced at Shen Hong gratefully and continued: "I know, thank you Sister Hong, my mother's family didn't tell me for fear that it would affect my body after I knew." ”
As she spoke, Officer Xiao Li also touched her slightly bulging belly.
Shen Hong comforted: "Yes, if you don't think about yourself, you have to think about the child in your belly!"
Officer Xiao Li continued: "When I went back, my cousin's house was already in a mess.
Hey, when I saw that my uncle and their family were like that, I was embarrassed to open my mouth and ask them to ask someone, Sister Hong, I'm really embarrassed, I didn't help. ”
After hearing this, Shen Hong replied: "Xiao Li, don't think too much, blame me for this matter, if I didn't ask you to do something, you wouldn't be so sad if you didn't know about this matter." ”
Xiao Li said: "Sister Hong, I don't blame you for this, even if you don't entrust me to do things, I will know sooner or later." ”
