When Boss Chen and Luo Guowen appeared at the intersection with a load of wheat on their backs, the creek that was lying on their backs staring at the floor in a daze came back to their senses.

"Dad, uncle, you're back. He said hello from afar, and ran into the hall.

Hurriedly took the plastic bucket out of the pot, put the ice cubes that had not yet melted into the space in a basin, scooped the water in the pot into the washbasin, threw a handkerchief into it, and brought it to the middle of the street.

Over there, Boss Chen put his back on the ground against the pillar, carried two bamboo mats from the middle of the street and spread them in the yard, and then poured the wheat in the back basket and nylon bag into the bamboo mat and spread it flat to dry.

Only carrying one load of wheat makes them feel that it is not cost-effective to run once, and besides, how many times do you have to run an acre of wheat?

So, I sew a few large nylon bags, stuff them in the back basket, and then put a nylon bag on top.

"Dad, uncle, you come and wash your faces. Both of them were sweating profusely, panting heavily. Seeing that they were all ready, Xiaoxi beckoned them to come and wash their faces with ice water.

"Wow~ Is this water so cold?" As he spoke, Luo Guowen took a few more handfuls of water and splashed it on his face, which was very comfortable.

"It should be well water, the water in the well behind our bamboo forest is still strangely cold. Boss Chen's eyes flashed when he heard this, he looked up at the girl who was busy working by the board, and explained in a low voice.

Luo Guowen didn't care, he just sighed, after feeling comfortable, he twisted the handkerchief and wiped the water.

"Uncle, come and taste it, this is the mung bean soup I just boiled. The brook came out with two small bowls. "Binbin, go to the top of the board by yourself, and give the bowl that is not cold to grandma. ”

"Oh. Chen Yubin replied loudly, got up, and ran to the hall.

Seeing his monkey urgency, Xiaoxi couldn't help but laugh out loud.

"How is it, uncle?" handed another bowl to Boss Chen, who had finished washing his face, and Xiaoxi couldn't wait to ask Luo Guowen, who had already tasted it on the side.

After tasting a small bite, Luo Guowen's eyes lit up, and he couldn't help but scoop a few more mouthfuls into his mouth. Hearing Xiaoxi ask his opinion, he reluctantly stopped, "Sweet and rustling, delicious, so cool, it's cool from the mouth all the way to here." As he spoke, he pointed to his throat all the way to his stomach.

Xiaoxi's eyes lit up, listened to Luo Guowen's opinion, turned his head and looked at Boss Chen with bright eyes.

"It's delicious, it's cool, you're ready, and when your grandfather comes back, it's delicious." After speaking, Boss Chen settled the remaining mung bean soup in the bowl in two bites, handed the bowl to Xiaoxi, and walked towards the place where he put the back.

"Dad, don't you want to eat some more?" This is a small bowl, and he solved it in a few bites.

"No, your grandfather and they are still waiting, and we will all come back later, and we will eat together." "Strap on your back and go down.

"Oh. ”

Seeing that his brother-in-law was leaving, Luo Guowen stuffed the rest of the mung bean soup into his mouth at once, stuffed the bowl into Xiaoxi's hand, and dragged the back rope to follow.

Seeing that they were all gone, Xiaoxi went back to the house and scooped up a small half bowl and tasted it. It's okay, it's a little sweet, but not too sweet and greasy. It's just that the time of ice is too short, and it's not cold enough.

Put the plastic bucket back on, put the ice on it, and add some water. Then he washed a few bowls and lay down on the mat again.

In the morning, Mr. Chen and a few of them came back, and sure enough, they were very impressed by the behavior of the creeks laying mats on the ground, such as "really smart", "hit the idea", "have a way", and so on. The two of them blushed and were embarrassed.

After washing his face with ice water, he ate two bowls of mung bean soup and lay down on the mat to cool off. After lunch, I didn't go back to the shed, and continued to lie down on the mat to rest.

Afraid that the ground would be too cold, Wang Aihua would not be able to stand it, so Luo Guihua went into the house and hugged a quilt and spread it on the mat.

"Mom, it's not too hot, is it?" Xiaoxi looked at the sun outside, and then at the thick quilt that Luo Guihua had laid on the mat, and couldn't help but feel that his back was starting to sweat again.

"No, your grandmother is not in good health, it's too cold on the ground, and it's just right to make the bed and quilt. If it weren't for the fact that it was so hot in the shed, and she was afraid of heat stroke, she would have wanted her mother to go back to bed. After all, even if a quilt is laid, it is still hard, and it is not as comfortable as a bed.

After getting it done, Luo Guihua called Wang Aihua on the side to lie down and take a nap.

At three or four o'clock in the afternoon, the sun was still hot, and everyone was not in a hurry, anyway, there was more than an acre of wheat in the self-reserved field in front of the door. In summer, it's dark at night.

At five o'clock, when the sun (heat) was a little lighter, everyone got up and went to cut wheat with their things on their backs. This time, Xiaoxi and Chen Yubin were also called.

At this time, the air was still very hot, but it was not so dry, but the sun was still hanging in the sky after all, and the brook was wearing a hat, at least to cover it.

Xiaoxi still likes to do the work of cutting wheat, although every time he will be stabbed by the small thorns on the ears of wheat, his face and neck will be stinged, but he doesn't need to bend down to do this work, and he will go straight to it.

They cut the wheat from the position of the fist under the ear of wheat, and the other wheat stalks are useless, and they are directly buried in the soil when they turn the ground to make fertilizer.

Wang Aihua carried a kettle, walked slowly down from the yard dam with a cane, walked to the road, and looked at the path of the wheat field below. I had to shout to the nearest person, "Mother-in-law...... Mother-in-law ......"

"Huh. What's wrong?" Hearing the shout, Granny Chen stopped the knife and walked towards her.

Wang Aihua gestured to the kettle in his hand, "Then, I'll boil a pot of boiling water for you, heh...... I couldn't see the road clearly, and I didn't dare to come down for fear of hitting the kettle. ”

"Oh, I'll come. With that, Granny Chen climbed up the path. took the kettle from Wang Aihua's hand, "This, I'm sorry for you." ”

In the morning, Xiaoxi boiled a large pot of mung bean soup, so they didn't boil the water in the afternoon.

Wang Aihua smiled indifferently, "What's the trouble here, I want to help you cut the wheat, but I can't see it with my eyes, hey......"

"You're still helping us dry the wheat at the top of the house. ”

"I can only help you with the little things. ”

"Oh, it's a little thing to help. Okay, I won't tell you, I'm busy, you can go back quickly, your health is not good. "Granny Chen, as long as she has an appetite, she will be generous and protective to each other.

Wang Aihua nodded, "This pot of boiling water, I use cold water, and it is convenient for you to drink." ”

"Uh-huh, you can go back quickly. With that, Granny Chen walked down with the kettle.

In the evening, when he was about to finish work, Luo Guihua received a call from Mr. Li.
