Chapter 296: The Prosperous Family Chops Bananas

The next morning, Changsheng's family had breakfast, Changsheng and Hanyi, and Shi's father went out to cut bananas together, and Shi's mother stayed at home alone.

Han Yi carried the empty basket, and Shi Dad and Changsheng each resisted the wooden ladder, as well as a rope and a kitchen knife, and walked towards their banana trees.

Changsheng's family has 10 banana trees and 15 banana trees, and it is in another banana grove, and his family's bananas were planted two years late, and he will look at them several times every time he goes to cut them.

The plantain grows shorter than the banana, and the taste is not as good as the banana. So keep it.

Every year, when I was free, my mother would always go to the banana tree and cut off the leaves that had turned yellow, and the first few years did not bloom and could not bear fruit, so my father and mother poured the ashes that had been burned at home and the manure of domestic animals under the tree as fertilizer.

At that time, the bananas in Yu's father's house finally bore fruit, and the two of them lived very close, so he told Shi's father to pour some fertilizer he bought, so that it would be better, and Yu's father used both.

After hearing this, Shi's father also went home and picked up a little fertilizer, and poured a little on each banana tree and banana tree.

After a year, it finally blossomed and bore fruit, and Shi's father and mother were very happy.

In the first year, there were few fruits, some of them were knotted, some of them were not, and when they were finished, their parents poured two kinds of fertilizer and firewood ash.

In the second year, most of them knotted again, and this time there were many knots, and when my father and mother picked them to sell them on the street, they didn't sell so well, and then they went to the town to sell them.

When Changsheng was fifteen years old, he and his father cut the bananas and plantains at home, and after they were chopped, his mother helped them pick them up and sell them in the town.

At that time, Yizhi was only ten years old, and let her watch at home, these trees have been almost twenty years old, and the first six years have not borne fruit.

Later, when the knot began, my father and mother sold bananas for a few years, and the money was used to make up for the tuition of the two siblings.

It didn't take long for the family to arrive and look at the trees covered with bananas and plantain, and smiles on their faces.

Put down the belongings in his hand, find a good place and start to build a wooden ladder, and cut the banana first, which has been sunburned to a pale yellow. The banana peel should be thinner, ripen faster, and cut it quickly to sell better.

With a rope and a kitchen knife in their hands, Han Yi and Changsheng slowly climbed up, Shi Dad was holding it below, originally Shi Dad was going to go up to cut it, Han Yi smiled and said that he could, just let him help hold it below.

After Changsheng and Hanyi carefully climbed up, after standing firm, they tied the rope in their hands to the banana, and began to wield a sharp kitchen knife to chop, which their mother had already sharpened at home yesterday afternoon.

The two couples grasped it with their left hand, and cut with a kitchen knife in their right hand, only to hear Huo Huo's voice, and when it was finally broken, the two couples breathed a sigh of relief, grabbed it with both hands, slowly climbed down the wooden ladder, and handed the banana to Shi's father, who immediately carefully put it into the basket.

The couple continued to chop, and as the sun rose, the water droplets on the leaves and on the banana peel slowly dried.

The sunlight through the leaves, the breeze blows, and the withering banana leaves make a rattling sound.

When my mother first fed the pigweed to the pigweed, now they all eat raw pigweed, and the piglets when they were young will only eat them when they are cooked, just like people.

After feeding, the chickens and ducks were also fed, and when I was a child, the chickens and ducks ate rice, and like people, they were fed corn flour and boiled sweet potatoes when they grew up.

Now you can eat some green cabbage leaves, and my mother will slaughter some kraft cabbage and corn pink sweet potatoes every day to feed them.

When the farm is not working, it will be boiled in the pot before feeding, but now the farm is busy, there is no time, so I have to feed the raw, and they will eat when they are hungry.

The house is all firewood, and everything that can be used as firewood in the outside field has been moved back.

After feeding, Shi's mother picked up the family's dirty clothes and washed them by the river.

In the past, Yizhi was at home, and it was usually Yizhi and her wash, but now it is Hanyi and her.

When the mother arrived, there were already a few ladies washing, she smiled and said hello, began to fill the water on the river, poured laundry detergent and soaked it, took out the wooden pig sweater brush and brushed it, and then beat it with a wooden stick.

After all the brushing and hammering, the water on the river is very wide, and the people of the village come here to wash.

After washing, my mother carried it away, returned to her home, found a hanger to dry, and hung it on a bamboo pole outside.

Shi's mother immediately returned to the house, and the millet and peanuts were about the same for two more days, so she quickly moved out to dry.

At this time, Changsheng had already cut down ten banana trees outside, and four baskets had been filled, and the faces of the two husbands and wives were already sweating.

The two arms were sore after being cut for a long time, and Shi Dad stood below, seeing that Han Yi was tired and slower to cut up, he smiled and said loudly: "Changsheng, you guys come down and rest for a while." ”

Changsheng stopped, saw Hanyi next to him, saw that she was really tired, and quickly called her down.

After Han Yi cut the string in his hand and said yes, he slowly leaned down the wooden ladder, put down the kitchen knife after coming down, and squatted on the ground to pant slowly.

Changsheng continued to chop, and Han Yi shouted at him below to take a rest, he stopped, turned his head and said with a smile: "You rest, I'll come down later." ”

After saying that, I continued to chop, most of the boys' physical strength is better than that of girls, because their bones are heavier and denser, and the bones that support the whole body are larger than those of girls, and the strength will always be greater than that of girls.

Shi's father took a kitchen knife and carefully took out the bananas in the basket, and cut off those banana branches, so that he could pick them back and sell them.

After Dad finished chopping, he separated the big ones from the small ones, and then carefully put them into the basket, and there were already three baskets after they were finished.

Hanyi helped Changsheng bring the chopped bananas, the sun was already very hot, and the clothes Changsheng was wearing were already wet with sweat.

Dad Shi looked at the clear sky and shouted at Changsheng not to cut it, but Changsheng stopped and said okay.

After chopping, the string in his hand slowly walked down the wooden ladder, handed the banana to Hanyi, and then put down the kitchen knife and squatted down to rest.

After wiping the sweat with his clothes, his face was already red from the heat, and Shi Dad cut down the remaining banana branches and put them in the basket.

Changsheng was already hungry, so he reached out and tore open a banana and handed it to Han Yi to eat, and Han Yi was also hungry, so he picked it up and ate it.

Changsheng tore one open and ate it himself, the taste of the banana was fragrant and sweet, Changsheng said while eating: "This banana is very sweet, I hope it can be sold tomorrow." ”

Shi Dad had already picked up the flat pole, knotted the rope, put it in, and was about to pick it back, Changsheng immediately stood up and said with a smile: "Dad, I'll come, you just need to resist the wooden ladder." Hanyi and I can just pick it. ”

Han Yi nodded and said okay, picked up the flat pole and put it in the rope, and Changsheng carried it away at once. Han Yi followed behind.

Shi's father resisted two wooden ladders and ropes, and walked to the end with two kitchen knives. After two breaks along the way, I finally picked it home.

Put down the flat burden and Yi Yi gasped, Changsheng rested for a while and went to the kitchen, Shi Dad also went to the kitchen after putting the wooden ladder away, Shi Ma was cooking, and when she saw them coming back, she smiled and said, "How many have you finished?"

Shi's father walked over and said with a smile: "I've finished cutting bananas, let's go cut bananas in the afternoon, tomorrow our family will go to sell, and you will be busy at home in the afternoon." ”

Shi's mother smiled and said okay, Hanyi rested, and also came over to wash his hands, Changsheng took the cooked rice after washing, and Hanyi took the dishes and chopsticks.

Three vegetables have been scrambled, and there is also a scrambled egg.

Shi's father helped to light the fire, and when a bowl of scrambled eggs was scrambled, Shi's mother called everyone to eat, and the family sat down and began to eat.

Shi's father said while eating: "Changsheng, you wait a while to go to Dechang's house, and ask them how much they sell for a catty? Did they cut it?"

Changsheng said yes while eating, and Shi's mother said while eating: "This year's bananas are okay." ”

Changsheng ate scrambled eggs, and said while eating: "It's okay, most of the big ones, each tree is two skewers, and a few are three skewers." ”

Hanyi nodded and said yes while eating, and after the family finished eating, Shi's mother cleaned up the dishes and went to wash them.

Changsheng went to the yard to dry the millet and peanuts, and then went back to his house to sleep after drying.

My father and mother brought bananas there, put them on the ground, and checked them again before carefully putting them in the basket.

Hanyi couldn't sleep in bed, her arms hurt a little, and when Changsheng went in, he saw her sitting on the bed and massaging her arms with her own hands.

Changsheng sat down, stretched out his hands to help her massage her shoulders, and said while pressing: "Hanyi, I'll help you massage, courtesy, wait a minute, you can also help me press it." ”

Han Yi nodded and said okay, Changsheng finished the massage, knocked a few more times, and began to help her massage her arms, after pressing the two arms, Changsheng smiled and said, "How is it, do you feel better?"

Han Yi nodded and said that it was better, Changsheng stopped, stretched out his two arms and said with a smile: "It's your turn, Han Yi help me press it." ”

Hanyi had the experience of the last time, and this time he pressed a lot of force, and Changsheng lay down and fell asleep with his eyes closed.

After massaging the two arms, Han Yi pressed Changsheng's shoulders again, knocked and pounded, and pressed for a while before stopping.

After watching Changsheng fall asleep, Han Yi also lay down, Changsheng stretched out his right hand and hugged Han Yi's waist at once, approached Han Yi and said with a smile: "It's good to have a wife, you can massage at any time to relieve fatigue." ”

At this time, Han Yi blushed, the weather was a little hot, and it was even hotter to hug each other, Han Yi asked in a low voice: "Can you let go?" ”

Changsheng didn't seem to hear it, Han Yi thought he was asleep, and reached out to pull his hand away, and Changsheng hugged it hard.

Han Yi stretched out his fingernails and pinched his hand, and with a painful 'ouch' sound, he immediately let go, and said unwillingly: "Okay, let you sleep, remember to compensate me in the future." ”

After saying that, he turned around and fell asleep, and Han Yi immediately fell asleep with peace of mind.

At four o'clock in the afternoon, the family got up, and the two fathers and sons and Hanyi went out again, and Shi's mother immediately closed the door and went to Yu's mother's house to ask them if they had sold.

After arriving at Yu's mother's house, Shi's mother called her with a smile, and then asked, Yu's mother said: "I just went today, the big one sells for two yuan a catty, and the small one sells for one yuan and five jiao a catty." ”
