Shao Ke smiled and said yes, sometimes jokingly: "If my brother didn't find a girlfriend until he was thirty years old, you would have to wash it for ten years." ”

Shaofen was immediately unhappy, and said unhappily: "I think of beauty, if I have a boyfriend, it is impossible to help you wash it anymore, my boyfriend will say." ”

Shao Ke had no choice but to say that I knew, and the two brothers and sisters washed and went home.

I dried my clothes, closed the door and went out. Follow the winding path to find your own peanut plant.

Grandpa had already dug a lot and piled it up there, and when the two siblings arrived, they called out to grandpa, and grandpa stopped.

Next to it was a shovel, the same shape as a hoe, but empty in the middle, so that the earth could be dug up lightly.

Shaofen picked up the shovel next to him and began to dig peanuts, Shao Ke went over and asked his grandfather to dig for him, and grandpa said yes. I turned around and went to find the basket and picked the peanuts back.

Because the weather has not rained for more than ten days, the mud in the soil is very dry, digging up and flying everywhere, grandpa said loudly: "Shao Ke Shaofen, you dig here, I will pick it back first, the sun is big." ”

The two brothers and sisters said yes while digging, and the grandfather quickly filled the two baskets and walked away, and the two brothers and sisters dug carefully.

Try not to dig up the peanuts, a nest of peanuts will dig several times, and then when the digging is loose, then reach out and pick up the peanuts to shake the mud on them.

The flowers in this piece of soil are growing well, and there are about ten in a nest when they are dug up, and grandpa has already dug a quarter, just picking one back.

As time passed, the sun rose, sweat continued to flow, and Shaofen began to scream hot, and his speed slowed down.

After digging for a while, Grandpa came again, and the two siblings had already dug a lot and piled up there. Grandpa hurriedly loaded it into the basket, filled it and carried it away.

The two siblings continued to dig, the sun was hot, their mouths were dry, and their heads were dizzy, Shaofen stopped and walked to the edge of the soil, where there was a cup of boiling water.

She wiped her sweat, stretched out her hands and picked up the water cup, it was cold boiled water, and her grandfather boiled it in the morning, and put the boiling water into the water cup when it was cold.

There was a little tea brewed in it, and it tasted a little bitter, after Shaofen drank it, she took the water cup and walked to her brother and called him, Shao Ke stopped, Shaofen gave him the water cup and told him to drink water, Shao Ke said yes.

took the water cup and drank two large sips, gave the water cup to his sister, and dug it up with a shovel, Shaofen turned around and put the water cup on the edge of the soil, and turned around and began to dig again.

By this time, two-quarters of the peanuts had been dug up, and Grandpa came with a basket and loaded the peanut vines on the ground.

Then he called the two brothers and sisters loudly, looked at the sun, it was probably almost eleven o'clock, and then said loudly: "Shao Ke Shaofen, let's go back, come and dig in the afternoon." ”

When the two siblings heard this, they quickly stopped, came over with shovels, and packed all the peanuts they had dug up and put them in two back baskets.

Shao Ke walked to the front, Shaofen carried it on his back, resisted two shovels on his shoulders, and walked in the middle, and his grandfather carried it on his back and walked behind with a water cup.

Going home along the crooked path, the neighbors in the neighborhood also went back one after another. Walking on the road with a little wind blowing, it felt very cool, and my hands were covered with dust.

The grandfather and grandson walked slowly, took a break on the road, and insisted on going home.

After returning to their home, the two siblings hurriedly washed their hands, and then went to the kitchen to cook on the fire, and the grandfather washed his hands and turned over the grain in the yard.

The animals were fed food before they sat down and began to pick peanuts.

The two siblings were busy in the kitchen, cooking simple meals that didn't take long to cook. After washing his hands, ask grandpa to eat first.

Grandpa said okay, washed his hands, and the three of them sat down to eat.

Shaofen asked while eating: "Grandpa, when will Mom and Dad come back?"

Grandpa said while eating, "No need, they will come back, let's work hard at home." ”

Shaoke ate and asked, "Grandpa, you should be able to finish digging peanuts today." ”

Grandpa smiled and said, "It's good to dig it, and the rest is just picked, it's not so hot." ”

The two siblings nodded yes, and after eating, Shaofen packed up the dishes and went to wash. Shaoke and his grandfather sat in the hall picking peanuts.

It wasn't so hot in the house, and after Shaofen finished washing, she also came to pick it, and the three of them moved quickly, grabbed a handful of peanuts, twisted them hard, and all the peanuts fell.

One afternoon, the grandfather and grandson did not rest and sleep, and finally finished picking all the peanuts they picked back.

At this time, the sun outside was a little smaller, the grandfather closed the door, and the three of them were going out again.

Soon came to the peanut field in the morning, put down the tools in his hand, and began to dig, this time he took three shovels out, and each of the three grandparents dug one.

In order to finish digging today, the three grandfathers and grandsons hurriedly dug up, there was no wind in the air, and it didn't take long to dig up, and the sweat was like rain.

The hands holding the shovel were a little sore, and after digging, the hands would be blistered, and they were not wearing gloves because it was too hot.

After digging for a long time, there was not much left, Shaofen stopped, put down the shovel, walked to the edge of the soil and picked up the boiling water cup, drank a few sips, and felt much more comfortable.

Hurriedly walked to his grandfather with the water cup and asked him to drink water, the grandfather said yes, stopped with both hands, took the water cup and drank a few sips, and returned the water cup to Shaofen.

Shaofen walked up to his brother again and asked him to drink water, Shao Ke said yes, stopped, took a few sips of the water cup, and gave it to his sister.

Shaofen quickly turned around and put the water cup on the edge of the soil and began to dig again.

As time passed, the sun went down, and the peanuts in this soil were finally dug up. The three grandfathers and grandsons breathed a sigh of relief, walked to the edge of the soil, and sat down to rest.

Stretching out her hands, Shaofen's hands were already blistered, and it hurt a little to press it with her hands, but she didn't say that it would be fine in a few days.

Looking at the peanuts in the field, Shaoke asked loudly: "Grandpa, do we have time to dig again, there may be a few peanuts that have not been dug up." ”

Grandpa looked at it and said, "Let's talk about it then, after finishing the other work, you all go out, and I will dig alone." ”

After hearing this, the two siblings said yes, and Shaofen immediately said, "Grandpa, I will buy you new clothes after I go to work and pay my salary." You do less at home. ”

Shao Ke also smiled and said: "Yes, grandpa, you plant less, don't be tired, we will be obedient, I will come back to see you on vacation and help with the work." ”

Grandpa smiled and said yes, stood up and told the two siblings to pack up and get ready to go home. The two siblings hurriedly said yes.

The three grandparents and grandsons loaded the peanut vines into the basket and the basket, Shao Ke carried them, and the grandfather and Shaofen carried them on their backs and went home together.

This went back and forth twice, and the rest of the little was picked back by one person.

When he returned to his home, Shaofen had already washed his hands and gone to cook, and his grandfather collected the millet in the yard, so Shaofen washed his hands and took the dried clothes home.

After harvesting, the pigs were fed, as well as the chickens and ducks.

Then I helped my grandfather collect it, and after the harvest, my grandfather and grandson sat down to pick peanuts.

Shaofen was busy in the kitchen alone, and it didn't take long for the rice to be cooked. Come and call my brother and grandpa for dinner.

They said yes, washed their hands, and the family sat down to eat.

After eating, Shaofen went to wash the dishes and take a hot bath.

Shao Ke and his grandfather sat under the electric light and continued to pick peanuts, and it didn't take long for Shaofen to heat up the bath water and come over to ask grandpa to take a bath, he said yes, and quickly got up and went back to the house to find clothes.

Shaofen sat down to help pick peanuts, and said while picking: "Brother, I can't finish picking tonight, let's pick tomorrow." ”

Shao Ke nodded and said okay, his hands moved quickly, and after a while, his grandfather washed it and walked over, and after Shaofen saw it, he quickly turned around and went to the kitchen to continue the hot water.

After the heat was good, I asked my brother to wash, but I said yes and stood up.

Waiting for his brother to scoop the water away, Shaofen continued to drink hot water. After the heat was good, my brother also washed it, and Shaofen found clothes to wash by herself.

Shaoke sat down with his grandfather to continue picking peanuts, and since there was no rest in the afternoon, he began to want to sleep at this time, and Shaoke kept yawning.

Grandpa saw it and quickly said, "Shaoke, go to sleep, and pick it up tomorrow." ”

Shao Ke nodded and said yes, stood up, washed his hands and went back to his house, Shaofen washed out, grandpa had already closed the door, washed his hands and went back to the house.

Shaofen also hurried back to the house to sleep, and soon fell asleep.

The next morning, Grandpa got up at seven o'clock and called the two siblings, and the two siblings also got up quickly when they heard it.

Grandpa cooked breakfast first, told them to wash their hands and eat quickly, they said okay, wash their faces and brush their teeth, and hurry up to eat.

After eating quickly, Shaofen washed the dishes, and Shaoke and his grandfather moved the millet out to dry. After a quick drying, sit down and start picking peanuts.

Shaofen took a kitchen knife and slaughtered the pigweed to feed the pigs, and made a bowl of corn for the chickens and ducks. After feeding, sit down to help too.

Grandpa immediately told her to go and wash her clothes, and she immediately said yes, put yesterday's dirty clothes into a wooden barrel, and carried them to the river.

This time, Shao Ke didn't go, thinking that he had finished picking the peanuts, so he quickly moved out to dry, and the ones he picked yesterday had been poured into the yard to dry.

Shaofen walked quickly with the bucket, and it didn't take long to arrive, and there were still those ladies washing clothes by the river. The ladies called her, and she called them with a smile.

A few eldest ladies asked while washing: "Shaofen, have you graduated this year?"

Shaofen poured out her clothes, put half a bucket of water and put it away before saying, "After graduation, I won't study, and I'm going to go out to work with my father and them."

My brother still wants to study, maybe a junior college. ”

Several eldest ladies talked to each other, saying that the tuition fee for reading was a lot, and it was difficult for a child to study, and they all said: "That's fine."

There is less burden on your family. You can also work to earn money to support yourself. In the future, you will have to get married and get married, and there will be more places to use the money. ”

Shaofen nodded yes, a person lowered his head and scrubbed quickly, and several aunts quickly finished washing and went back one after another.

When the eldest lady left, Shaofen took out the brush and began to brush up the clothes of her brother and grandfather, if you don't brush it like this, you are afraid that it will not be clean, they will say.

The sound of brushing was loud, Shaofen brushed vigorously, and after a while, she finished brushing. Hurry up and wash your clothes.
