Autumn is indeed the season of harvest.

The soybeans in the field have just been drummed, and there is still some time before the harvest.

The villagers were the first to usher in a bumper harvest on the mountain.

On the side of the mountain, you can see it everywhere, and there are a lot of hazelnut seedlings.

There were a lot of hazelnuts hanging on each seedling, like a fat doll, with a little green hat, revealing a chubby little face.

Remove the sour and hard shell on the outside, and you will be greeted by the fragrant and sweet hazelnut kernels inside.

Speaking of this, Zhou Shujie also has a small habit.

That is, every year when picking hazelnuts, she especially loves to eat these undried hazelnut kernels.

When it is dried and fried, it will taste very fragrant, but its sweetness is gone.

Zhou Shujie loves to eat this freshly picked one, which is fragrant and sweet.

People in this era are very frugal, even if they have a little money saved at home, they will not use it to buy any small snacks for their children.

This hazelnut growing on the mountain, it has become the main snack that the child can eat every winter, after all, he does not need money, at this time, every family, whether it is an adult, even the children will be in pairs on the side of the mountain, picking some hazelnuts to eat to satisfy their hunger.

By the way, did I forget to mention the height of the hazelnut seedlings?

The hazelnut seedlings on our side grow up to about two meters. The short ones start to bear hazelnuts as soon as one meter.

Therefore, ordinary children can reach it, and the hazelnut seedlings are particularly soft.

Even if you can't bend him, pick the hazelnut from him and let it go, and it will return to its original shape.

This year, Zhou Shujie also deliberately followed Guo's sister-in-law, Guo's second sister-in-law, and the three of them to pick hazelnuts.

The difference between this hazelnut and hazelnut is that it has a lot of small thorns on it.

Zhou Shujie wrapped himself tightly before he went, even wrapped his hands and neck, but after he came back, his body was itchy for several days.

It's not the first time she's seen hazelnuts, when she was at her uncle's house before, the eldest brother and the second brother also picked them back for her to eat.

But this was the first time she had seen a hairy rash growing on a hazelnut seedling.

It's beautiful! Just like stars, four, five, quadrangular and pentagram. Hung on hazelnut seedlings more than two meters high. The burrs on it are like the light it emits.

It looks good and tastes good, but when you step on it, you will suffer some sin.

It's a real itch, you can't scratch it, even if you take a shower, you can't get rid of that itch.

The hazelnuts are bagged in the yard and dried in the bags. When the shell is dried, take a stick and tap it gently, and the hazelnut grains will fall off.

At this time, those who have children in the family will gather in a circle on the side.

Pick up the hazelnuts that cracked when beaten, and eat the hazelnut kernels that have been exposed.

There were also two rains in the fall, which provided plenty of moisture for the soybeans that were growing grains.

It also provides nourishment for the mushrooms and fungus on this mountain.

After the rain, as soon as the weather clears, a group of people will go up the mountain to pick fungus and monkey heads.

As a mountain man, Zhou Shujie also went?

Of course, I still went with her brother and them, the fresh fungus is particularly heavy, and there are dozens of pounds in the half-back basket, but it is not much to dry at home, about ten to one ratio.

Zhou Shujie, panting and carrying this heavy fungus to his home, dripping water from the back basket behind him along the way, this is all the water that is squeezed out by squeezing the fungus in the frame.

Picking fungus is really a sin!

From going up the mountain in the morning to returning home in the afternoon, I basically didn't do anything before.

When he got home, he took off his shoes and socks, and Zhou Shujie's feet were soaked.

Even his body has become abnormally white.

The fungus she picked this time can have six or seven catties after drying, and it is enough for her own food.

So the second time it rained, Zhou Shujie said that he wouldn't go anywhere.

With these two rains, the humidity was enough, and after two days of exposure to the sun, the temperature was also reached, and the mushrooms on the mountain arched through the soil one by one, revealing a bunch of small heads.

Stepping on this is easier than stepping on fungus, at least not wet all day.

Still according to the usual practice, the two children were left at home for the mother-in-law to watch.

Zhou Shujie followed the brothers and sisters-in-law next door up the mountain and stepped on mushrooms a few times.

The mushrooms on the mountain have many colors and are also diverse. Some are good-looking, some are not, and some smell bad.

They generally don't pick indiscriminately, but only pick two things that they know, such as hazel mushrooms and original mushrooms that grow on trees, and one that grows in pine fields. He is a small gray mushroom, like a small umbrella. When he stepped on it, he loved to break, and some of them broke when he touched it, and he would become very strong after he went home and blanched it.

Zhou Shujie only stepped on these three kinds of mushrooms and went home to dry them separately. By the way, in addition to these, some monkey heads were also picked.

It's not something you deliberately asked him for.

It also needs to be touched, and sometimes I was picking mushrooms, and when I looked up, I saw a white one growing on the dead branches of the tree in front of me. When you have to look for it, you may not be able to find it.

Like Zhou Shujie, who eats at home, picks the good mushrooms and picks them back.

There are many people in the village, all of them send the mushrooms they have stepped on to the market to sell, and the mushrooms they pick are too diverse, such as chicken leg mushrooms, red oil mushrooms, butter mushrooms, poplar mushrooms, willow mushrooms, some Zhou Shujie has never seen them, and they dare not step on her when they meet her.

In addition to these things on the mountain, the corn and potatoes planted in the garden also grow.

Corn can be boiled and eaten, and potatoes grow so big that they can be boiled and eaten with corn. Make a pot of egg sauce on top and put a little chili on top. Wash two Chinese cabbage leaves, and then pick up a handful of green onions, this is a farmer's meal.

When eating, the potatoes are crushed, the cabbage leaves are spread on the table, some green onions and coriander are put and two chopsticks and egg sauce, and then the potato bowl is "snapped" up, and a bag is a rice bag held in both hands, and it is particularly fragrant to eat in a big gulp.

As a pure Northeasterner, Zhou Shujie is still very good at eating this, and her mother-in-law is not very good at making rice bags. It was all handed to her by Zhou Shujie after wrapping it up.

When the two children saw their mother's big mouthful of food bags, they were all hungry, and they also went to his mother's hands to grab the rice bags to eat.

The days are like this, busy and happy day by day, don't look at the lack of one person in the family, but it doesn't affect anything at all.

Before you know it, it's late autumn, and the leaves start to turn yellow little by little.

The soybeans in the field also lost their leaves, revealing their round bean clips.

Looking for a poem to describe the autumn harvest.

After thinking about it for a long time, the only thing I can think of is the song "Compassion for Nong" that I learned when I was in elementary school.

Plant a grain of millet in spring and harvest 10,000 seeds in autumn.

Just these two sentences, the following ones don't quite fit.

In fact, this year's autumn harvest is relatively fast, after all, every large area of land has been planted with wheat this year.

It is used to grow soybeans and corn, as well as miscellaneous grains. They are all some mountain wasteland, and there are not many in each family, the most is about 20 acres, and the few are only more than 10 acres like Zhou Shujie's family.

Before she felt what was going on with this autumn harvest, she was already busy with her own work.
