Tianzhou and his grandparents returned home, waiting for the school to open, and the grandparents went out to work during the day, and the family began to plant vegetable seedlings in the field, and Tianzhou would follow.

After planting vegetable seedlings for a week, I returned home and prepared to pick mulberry leaves in my own field, and I was about to start raising silkworms again.

Grandma went to the mulberry field alone to pick them, and Grandpa went to the village street to buy some sunflower seeds and came back to plant a piece of land.

This is the first time they planted, after grandpa and grandma had breakfast, carrying hoes and fertilizers, Tianzhou carried a small back basket and followed them.

After walking a few paths, it didn't take long to reach the land of their home, and the grandparents put down the things in their hands and began to clean up the land first, and the ground was full of tender green weeds.

The grandfather and grandson began to pull out the weeds, and when spring came, some of these grasses had just sprouted, and some of the grasses could be pulled back to feed the rabbits.

The soil was not very wet, it was just right to pull the weeds, there was still some dew on the grass, and after they were halfway done, the grandparents started digging the soil, and their shoes were already covered with mud.

The trouser legs were also wet, and at that time I couldn't take care of these anymore, and my hands were also covered with some mud, and Tianzhou's hands and feet were also on.

Grandma asked Tianzhou to pull the grass alone, he nodded and said okay, grandparents have dug up half of the soil, and it is almost noon.

Tianzhou's hand was already painful, and his little face was already red, and Tianzhou called his grandfather loudly: "Grandpa, when are we going back? My hand hurts so much!"

At this time, the grandmother stopped, walked over with a hoe, and immediately told him to stand up and said with a smile: "Let's go, let's go home together, and we will plant again in the afternoon." Let Grandpa dig here, and we'll go back and cook the rice. ”

Saying that, put these weeds on the ground into this small back basket, and grandma put the small back basket on her back, Tianzhou immediately called grandpa: "Grandpa, grandma and I will go back first." ”

Grandpa nodded and said okay, grandma and Tianzhou went home together.

When he got home, his grandmother called for water and asked Tianzhou to wash his hands, and after washing, he asked him to change his pants, and he nodded and said yes.

Grandma also went back to the house to change, and after the change, Grandma came to the kitchen and started cooking lunch.

Tianzhou hurriedly went to the kitchen to help light the fire, and after cooking and frying the vegetables, the grandfather also came back with fertilizer.

Grandma brought the food to the table, and after the grandfather washed his hands, the three of them began to eat lunch.

Grandma said while eating, "Old man, do you want to bring some ash from the firewood stove at home in the afternoon?"

Grandpa immediately said, "No, let's put on the fertilizer first, and when it grows, sprinkle a little more." ”

Grandpa and grandma discussed how to grow sunflowers? Neighbors have also planted them, but very few people have planted them, because the yield is not high, and it may be due to water and soil, so grandparents have to plant them and try to plant them.

Sunflowers can also be sold for money, and what will be produced in the future is sunflower seeds, which are melon seeds that people usually eat.

After lunch, grandma cleaned up the dishes and went to wash, grandpa fed the domestic animals in the family, Tianzhou cut the tender green mulberry leaves for silkworms to eat, and grandma taught him to cut them.

He took a small pair of scissors and carefully cut the mulberry leaves, and after the grandmother finished washing, she hurriedly came over and helped cut the mulberry leaves.

After finishing their work, the three grandfathers and grandsons went back to their rooms to rest for a while, got up at two o'clock in the afternoon, and after cleaning up, closed the door and came to the field in the morning.

There was still a little grass left in the field, and the grandfather told Tianzhou to continue pulling the grass, and he and his grandmother continued to dig the soil.

After more than an hour, when the grass was finally pulled, Tianzhou screamed happily, and the grandparents were almost done.

Grandma immediately stopped, smiled and told Tianzhou to rest for a while, Tianzhou nodded and said okay, and went to the side to find the grasshopper, and grandpa began to make a nest.

Tianzhou found four gnats and put them on the ground to watch them fight there. Children are always playful.

The grandparents didn't say anything about him, he had already obediently pulled out the grass.

After the grandmother finished digging the soil, she began to pick up the sunflower seeds and scatter them in the nest.

A soil nest is planted with about ten sunflower seeds, and after Tianzhou has had enough, he saw his grandmother scattering sunflower seeds, and immediately asked his grandmother loudly: "Grandma, can I help you?"

When grandma heard this, she stopped and asked him to come over, let him put dozens of them at a time, and put them in these well-made nests, and told him not to put too much, Tianzhou nodded and said okay.

Grandma gave him some sunflower seeds, carried them in a pocket, let him hold the pocket in his left hand, count the sunflower seeds with his right hand, and put them in the nest after counting.

Tianzhou nodded and said yes, counted carefully with his pocket, and after counting the ten, he put them in the nest, and the mother-in-law and grandson worked hard to scatter sunflower seeds.

Grandpa couldn't be busy alone, so grandma had to stop and help with the nest, and when the land was all finished, grandpa rested next to him for a while.

The grandfather and grandson sprinkled sunflower seeds together, and after sprinkling, the grandparents breathed a sigh of relief and told Tianzhou to rest beside them, and they sprinkled the fertilizer on it.

Tianzhou nodded and said okay, and went to the side to find the grasshopper, the fertilizer can only be sprinkled a little, and the grandparents are careful to sprinkle it.

After an hour, the fertilizer was finally spread. The grandparents immediately dug up the soil and covered it.

Tianzhou was young, and his grandparents didn't call him, and after playing enough, Tianzhou immediately asked loudly next to him: "Grandpa, how long do you have to dig it up?"

Grandma stopped, wiped the sweat from her face, smiled and said loudly, "Come on, we'll go back when we're done." Tianzhou is good, play next to it for a while. ”

Tianzhou had no choice but to nod and say yes, and an hour later, it was getting late, and the grandparents finally dug it.

After the grandparents cleaned up, they asked Tianzhou to go home together, and it didn't take long for them to get home, and the grandparents were busy.

After cooking dinner, the three of them sat down to eat dinner.

Under the bright fluorescent lamp, Grandpa said while eating: "Tomorrow I will go and pick up a little water to water the sunflower seeds that have just been planted, maybe more than a week of water, if it rains tomorrow." ”

Grandma said yes while eating, she was tired for a day, and after the three of her grandfather and grandson finished eating, after cleaning up, they took a bath, closed the door, and went back to their rooms to rest.

The next morning, Grandpa got up at seven o'clock and quickly opened the door to look outside, and the courtyard outside was wet and raining a little.

Grandpa was very happy that he finally didn't have to go to water, and it was about ten o'clock in the morning that grandma went to Tianzhou's room to wake him up.

After the homework is finished, if there is no work at home, Tianzhou will get up very late in the morning, grandpa will call him a few times, and grandparents will not go out on rainy days.

Grandpa would chop some bamboo and come back and weave baskets at home, and grandma would do some needlework at home and feed silkworms.

It rained for several days in a row, and Tianzhou would read and write by himself at home, and when school started, he rarely went to his classmates to play.

When it didn't rain, grandpa walked to the field he planted to take a look, those sunflower seeds had grown tender green seedlings, and after grandpa read it carefully, he was finally relieved.

After another half a month, remove the excess seedlings, so that the sunflower seeds will grow well.

Half a month passed quickly, Tianzhou also started school soon, grandma took him to school to register, paid him tuition, Tianzhou returned to the class, and began to study normally again.

I take my classes seriously at school, and I talk to my classmates, but I don't fight, and I do my homework first when I get home.

Grandpa had already gone to the field to remove the excess seedlings, and Grandma sprinkled the ashes of the house next to the seedlings, hoping that they would grow taller soon.

A month passed quickly, and the sunflower seedlings had grown very tall, and the tender green stem slowly grew a flower bone.

When the grandparents saw it, they immediately brought the bamboo chips from home and inserted a few around the seedlings to prevent it from breaking suddenly.

The grandparents hope that the weather will be good and that there will be no strong winds, so that these seedlings can grow smoothly and very tall.

My grandparents would usually be busy at home, and my parents would send some money back after two months, and my grandfather would go to the post office on the street to get it back.

Dad will also write back, receive Dad's letter, Tianzhou will be very happy, take the letter written by Dad, read it to grandparents a few times, and then put the letter under his pillow, listen to the lecture hard, study hard.

To reassure the adults in the family, soon a month passed, and the sunflower seedlings had grown taller than a person, and began to grow a flower disc with flowers blooming inside.

The field that my grandfather planted had about sixty sunflower seeds, some of which had already bloomed, some of which had not yet fully bloomed, and the yellow stamens were in the flower bowl, facing the direction of the sun.

Grandparents came to see at this time, and the bees were buzzing and flying in the flower plate, where they were trying to collect nectar and spread pollen.

After reading it, the grandparents were still a little worried, if the pollen was not spread well, the sunflower seeds that produced would be empty.

After the two old men finished reading, there were few bees flying in, so they stretched out their hands and put the two sunflower seeds planted together, pointed their flower discs at each other, and spread the pollen by themselves.

There is no way, if more people plant sunflower seeds, the bees will fly more.

It took the grandparents a day to spread the pollen by hand.

Soon half a month passed, and the sunflower seeds began to grow melon seeds, and the grandparents were a little happy in their hearts after reading it.

Look carefully at the flower plate, which is full of white sunflower seeds, at this time Tianzhou has two months to go on summer vacation.

Soon half a month passed, and the sunflower seeds began to grow black, and grandpa would come to see if there were any worms?

When I get a long time, I will buy a little pesticide and give it a beat, and I will always come to see the last one when I have time.

More than a month passed, grandpa picked the sunflower seeds, peeled off the shell, there was also melon seed flesh in it, he took off the whole flower plate, took it home, and pulled out all the sunflower seeds on it.

After pulling it out, he and his grandmother peeled off the shell, and most of the melon seeds were still there. It's basically ready to be harvested.

Grandparents were delighted.
