Zhou Shujie bought the meat from the market, first wrapped a meal of dumplings, and put the rest in the well, and ate it for three or four days before eating.

She spends her days cooking, accompanying the children, feeding the pigs, feeding the chickens, and setting up the garden, all of which go back and forth.

Of course, sometimes I will go up the mountain, or go to Aunt Guo and Uncle's house to see my grandfather's filial piety.

After a few days of leisure, the second farming was ushered in.

That is, pull out all weeds except seedlings!

This year, the largest number of plots of land for each family were used to plant wheat, which did not need to be weed.

Zhou Shujie's family only has these eight acres of soybeans, and a little bean on the side of the mountain behind the house needs her to remove the grass.

There is a teaching in the rural service land, once, twice, three times. And so on until the old autumn.

It means that if people are diligent, this land will not be finished, and they will work over and over again until the old autumn!

There is also a saying that one shovel, two pulls, three finds!

To put it simply, the first time is to shovel the ground with a hoe, and the second time is to pull out the grass mixed with the seedlings by hand.

The third time is to find those big grasses that are taller than soybeans, pull them down and save them until the old autumn.

When the spring is plowed, the whole village is about the same days.

It's about the same when weeding, if someone in the village goes to the ground today.

The rest of the people will not be able to stay tomorrow, and will definitely run to the field early.

Breakfast in the morning!

Zhou Shujie was alone, took a military kettle filled with a pot of cold boiled water, and went to the ground to weed with a hoe.

He wore a straw hat on his head, a towel around his neck, and patched old clothes.

There is also a one-meter-long twisted braid, which sways back and forth behind her with her cat's waist.

At this time, there were no pesticides at all, and there were a lot of grasses in the field, all kinds of plants, all kinds of grows, and all kinds of flowers.

If you don't take advantage of its small size and clean them all up, and when they grow up to bloom, then you can turn the ground into a big garden.

Zhou Shujie felt that there were a few kinds of grass that were particularly difficult to handle.

The first is gray cabbage, thread vegetables, you don't see that it is usually fed to pigs, and even people can eat it, but it is not so easy to hoe when it grows in the ground, it is too small to handle, and the big one has a lot of roots, and the soybeans will be brought down when they are pulled.

Shoveling the ground like Zhou Shujie is doing now, but he can shovel it down. But it can't rain, it has to catch up with the rain and cloudy days, and it will live by itself when it occupies the water, which is equivalent to moving a nest for it.

Especially if you can't wait for it to grow up, otherwise it will really be a seedling and hit ten thousand seeds.

There is also a kind of grass, the name is "Yang Ding Ye", I don't know how the name came from, I only know that all farmers are very annoyed with this grass, it is very skinny, no one knows how deep its roots are, anyway, no one has ever dug it.

Usually, the leaves that grow on the surface are plucked out, and then it will grow on its own after a while, and where this grass grows this year, it will still grow next year.

Zhou Shujie is very annoyed with this kind of grass, didn't she see her digging a big hole in the ground with a hoe?

That's it, I didn't dig it out of the roots, but fortunately it doesn't run the roots, and when it grows, it's just that, as long as you don't let it hit, it will still be the same next year.

The rest of the grass, that's really annoying.

Even if you pull it off and hang it on a tree to dry for three or four days, it will still be alive if you throw it in the ground!

One is a wild vegetable that we often use to feed chickens, which is called "light cabbage" here and "bitter hemp" in other places.

When people are young, they can eat, but when they are old, they are fed to poultry.

The other is a plant called "spiny cabbage" that can be used as a medicinal herb and eaten as a medicinal herb, and there are many small thorns on its plant, which you will prick your hand when you touch it, and it is particularly difficult to pull it down.

Moreover, its roots are also very deep, especially the string roots are the most annoying, and they will be large as soon as they grow.

There is also a type called "jacarandama", which I think is called because it blooms blue.

I found that basically all the dishes with vegetables are edible. This is also a plant that can be eaten.

Zhou Shujie really hasn't eaten it, I don't know if it's delicious or not.

Anyway, as long as they grow, soybeans will be squeezed short and small by them.

When he shoveled to a place with a lot of light cabbage, Zhou Shujie picked them up, stacked them in the dragon ditch, and waited for them to take them home when he went home at noon, chopped them up and fed them to the chickens, and saved them from getting wild vegetables alone.

If you want to say that this piece of land, she is alone here, will she be afraid?

Actually, I was a little scared, but fortunately, there were people shoveling the ground nearby.

Following the sound of the wind, you can vaguely hear them talking, which can be regarded as emboldening Zhou Shujie.

If you want to say that this shoveling is really a technical job, ordinary people really can't do it!

In our reality, the most introduction to this should be the "Chaoyanggou" I have seen, in which the heroine first arrived in the countryside, because she couldn't shovel the ground, she practiced at home every day with tiles.

Zhou Shujie took the hoe and shoveled it carefully according to the appearance of others in his memory.

Left side, right side, not only to shovel off the grass roots, but also not to hurt the soybean seedlings, the grass in the middle of the seedlings' eyes, the big empty will take the horn of the hoe, to pick it out, empty small to the cat's waist, reach out to pull it out.

In particular, this origin has to turn sideways and twist the waist.

After a while, Zhou Shujie felt that her waist was cramping!

This work of shoveling the land is really not a problem in the eyes of those who have been doing farm work for a long time, but it is really not easy for beginners.

To be honest, don't look at Zhou Shujie without a father or mother, he grew up with his grandfather since he was a child, but he really hasn't worked in the field.

Even in the previous life, I married the pillar for so many years.

She has never been to the field, one is that his health is not good, and the other is that the child is not in good health, she only takes care of the child at home every day, and really has never done this, at most she is pulling weeds in the garden.

Zhou Shujie did it for a while, and felt like it was coming!

She also learned to hoe with both hands, and to use her left hand for a while, and then to change sides and use her right hand to eat, so that the two sides were upside down, and her waist felt better.

Or they all say that a person can't live!

I worked all morning in the sun!

Zhou Shujie only shoveled four back and forth, that is, eight ridges, and the land is only 300 meters long!

I like to sweat when I work, and I am thirsty quickly.

She brought the kettle of cold boiled water, and she would drink it by the end of the day.

Zhou Shujie, who shoveled to the ground, threw down the hoe.

Picked up a towel and wiped the sweat on my neck and face.

Picked up the kettle and poured out the last sip of water, poured it into the lid of the kettle, and the two mouthfuls were dry.

After drinking the water, I took a breath, took a bundle of wild vegetables, carried an empty kettle and carried a hoe home.

Her land is not far from home, and it takes more than half an hour to get home.

As soon as Zhou Shujie entered the yard, he smelled the fragrance, and it was the fragrance of the leek box.

When she arrived at the house, she didn't have to wait for her to enter the house, but through the open door of the outhouse, she saw her mother-in-law running on both sides of the house, busy with the leek box.

The mother-in-law looked up and saw that Zhou Shujie was back. He said, "It's going to be ready to eat, wash your hands and eat." ”

"Hey!"

Zhou Shujie responded, put down the things in his hand, and hurriedly went to wash his hands.

While washing his hands, he asked, "Mother, are the children asleep?"

The mother-in-law used a knife to turn over the leek box in the pot, and replied: "I fell asleep, I deliberately coaxed them to sleep late at noon, and now they are sleeping soundly." ”

Zhou Shujie also washed her hands and face, picked up a towel and wiped it twice, and went to help her mother-in-law light the fire.

To say that the farmer's cauldron is fast to cook, one pot can cook at least seven or eight, and the remaining ten or so two pots will be baked.

Cook and tidy up the outhouse.

Zhou Shujie and her mother-in-law carried a leek box and a bowl and chopsticks into the back room together.

Zhou Shujie entered the house and looked, and sure enough, the two children were sleeping soundly on the mattress on the kang top.

At the head of the kang is a table that has been placed, on which is placed a pot of rice porridge, a willow green onion, a bowl of sauce, and a plate of pickles.

Zhou Shujie put down the dishes and chopsticks in her hand, and her mother-in-law also put the leek box on the table.

Zhou Shujie picked up the spoon, scooped a bowl of porridge by himself, ate the leek box, drank the porridge, and ate the pickles, chatting while eating.

The mother-in-law asked, "How is it?

Zhou Shujie took a sip of porridge and replied, "It's okay, it's a bit of a da, and the ground is a little barren." ”

When the mother-in-law heard this, the expression on her face seemed to relax a little, and she asked again: "You haven't been to the ground in your mother's house before, are you tired of working in the field?"

"Hehe" Zhou Shujie laughed embarrassedly and replied: "But isn't it, I really haven't been on the ground at home before, but we haven't eaten pork, and we've seen pigs run! ”

The mother-in-law also said with a smile on her face. There is an old saying that you only grow waist teeth at the age of seventy-three, where did you get your waist! Hahaha! ”

"Hehehe......"

The lunch ended with the two of you talking to me.

Zhou Shujie picked up the table down.

The mother-in-law pushed her into the house, but she didn't let her brush the bowl, and said, "You go to sleep for a while, straighten your waist, and you have to continue working in the afternoon, and the rice bowl will be handed over to me to brush."

Zhou Shujie shirked twice, and saw that her mother-in-law sincerely asked her to rest.

She was not hypocritical, went into the house and took a pillow to lie down next to the child, and fell asleep in less than five minutes.
