Shen Yingxue's high marriage did cause a sensation in Gaijiatun, after Shen Dafu finished setting up the banquet at home, Shen Yingxue followed Zhao Dahai back to the county, I heard that she lived in her mother-in-law's house first, and waited for their new house to be divided into their own lives. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

Shen Yunfeng, the eldest daughter of the Shen family who married into the county, was busy as an introducer this time, and the two of them came back to get married, and she also followed her back to her parents' house for a week, which showed that she attached great importance to Zhao Dahai.

However, when she came back alone, her family Xue Jialong did not come with her, but it caused a lot of gossip in the village, and the second aunt prevaricated on the grounds that the children in the family were small and she had to leave someone at home to watch the children.

When Shen Yingxue and Zhao Dahai had a banquet and were about to return to the county the next day, Shen Yunfeng followed along.

A few members of Shen's second family sent three people to the entrance of the village that day until they couldn't see anyone and then went home, which was comparable to their daughter-in-law leaving home.

These things have been talked about by the villagers of Gaijiatun for a long time. It is rumored that Shen Dafu's son-in-law is more capable than Shen's second son-in-law, otherwise the eldest daughter of the Shen family can't be so stammering.

Shen Yunfang began to gossip with everyone for a few days, after all, in such a small mountain village, there are not many things that are short in the east and west, and the topic of her own 'recruitment' has been talked about by others for half a year, and finally a golden phoenix flew out of the mountain nest to replace the topic of her own family, of course she is happy, and she can laugh and say a few words with others. But then she didn't participate, after all, she was also a seriously injured person in the rumors, so it was better to keep some morality. One of the main reasons was that she didn't have time to gossip about people, because the wheat on the mountain was ripe.

In order to grab the time of these few days, Shen Yunfang deliberately went to ask Uncle Shen for leave, lying that he had a big reaction to pregnancy, and he had to rest at home these days.

Uncle Shen disagrees with his niece being so squeamish, there are many pregnant people in the village, and he doesn't look at who is so uncomfortable and uncomfortable for just over three months, which one is not working until he is about to give birth, and some even give birth to the child directly in the ground.

Although Shen Yunfang knew that an uncle like her would definitely not look down on her, but she had no choice, if she couldn't harvest several acres of wheat up the mountain in the past two days, it would be forbidden to have the fruits of her labor. Comparing the two sides, let's make Uncle Shen angry for a while.

On this day in July, after getting up early in the morning, after Shen Yunfang finished handling the affairs at home, he went out through the back door and climbed all the way up the mountain.

The wheat on the hillside was ripe, it looked golden, the breeze blew gently, waves of wheat rolled in from far and near, Shen Yunfang looked at the patches of wheat in front of him, and the joy in his heart couldn't be suppressed.

She walked into the wheat field, grabbed a handful of ears of wheat, and suddenly felt that her hard work was not in vain, her old fertilizer and water were not poured in vain, and every grain of wheat in her hand was swollen and swollen, as if it was about to burst.

After rejoicing for a while, Shen Yunfang stood in the wheat field and took a deep breath.

Come on, the 20,000-mile long march is just the last step, open the sickle.

She bent down, grabbed the wheat stalk with her left hand, and grasped the sickle with her right hand, and as soon as the edge of the knife sank to the root of the wheat, she heard a 'swish' sound, and cut the wheat at the root.

Shen Yunfang directly threw the wheat in his hand into the space, and then grabbed the next handful.

Slowly the sun rose overhead, the sweat on her forehead flowed down her neck like no money, and the cat's waist had been dry for hours, and she gradually felt that the sickle in her hand was heavy, and her legs seemed to be filled with lead, and her bent waist was stiffened.

Thinking of her current body, she felt that she should not work so hard, so she straightened up, picked up the straw hat on her head and fanned the wind, what kind of broken weather, it was so hot. Feeling that the sweat was flowing into her neck again, it was itchy, and she quickly wiped the sweat with the towel hanging around her neck. After a morning's labor, Mai Mang left blood stains on her little hands, so that the sweat was so pickled and the fire was burning, not to mention the taste.

She walked to the edge of the forest, found a shaded place, sat down, took out a bottle of boiled water from the space, and poured it with her head up. In the end, I still felt that it was hot from the inside out, so I took out a plate of chilled watermelon from the space, picked up a piece and was just about to nibble, and remembered that there was a small one in my stomach, and I couldn't ignore her because I was happy for a while. So she could only take a plate of chilled watermelons into space, took out a large watermelon at room temperature, took out a knife, and cut it into several petals with a few brushes, she picked up one and began to gnaw.

The sweet and watery watermelon will quench your thirst and cool off with one bite.

After eating two pieces, Shen Yunfang didn't dare to eat it, and put away the rest. Watermelon can be eaten by pregnant women, but not in excess.

After resting for a while, Shen Yunfang stood up and started a new wave of labor.

With her current physical strength, the work is very quick, and in this way, she has not worked in black and white for three days before she finishes harvesting the wheat planted on the hillside.

Looking back at the wheat stubble all over the ground, it is quite gratifying. At the same time, the five big words 'labor is the most glorious' popped up in her mind.

Labor is hard, but without the payment of labor, it is impossible to have a fat steamed bun on the dinner table, and these tired values.

Later, when she went up the mountain, she took advantage of the sun to take out the wheat in the space and expose it to the sun, and she began to pick up ears of wheat, which were the fruits of her own hard work for half a year, and she felt distressed if she wasted a little.

She took advantage of the gap between drying the wheat to clean up the wheat stubble in the field, and planted cabbage, turnips and mustard gnocchi, and before the frost, she could harvest the autumn vegetables.

Within two days, the vegetables in the field were finished, and the wheat stalks and wheat kernels became brittle, and the wheat grains fell off the wheat stalks as soon as they were forced. Shen Yunfang saw that it was almost over, so she spread plastic sheeting on the hillside and began to threshh artificially.

At this time, wheat threshing is crushed with oxen pulling stones or beaten with flails, commonly known as "beating field".

Shen Yunfang couldn't get cattle, so she had to let the sheep in the family pull the stone rollers back and forth, one sheep couldn't pull it, so she bolted two more, anyway, there were many sheep in the family, and she was tired of pulling for a few hours, so she was changing a few. Finally completed such a difficult task.

After repeated rolling, most of the wheat grains fell off the wheat stalks, and Shen Yunfang tied the clean wheat stalks into bundles and put them in the space, these things will still be useful in the future, and they can be used to raise earthworms or make fungus sticks.

Then she began to thresh by hand with the flail, and beat again and again, so that the wheat grains that were still hanging on the straw also fell off obediently.

Shen Yunfang spread all the wheat grains on the plastic sheet, put them in the sun and exposed them to the sun for two more days, and then used a shovel to put all the wheat grains into sacks, and then packed bags and bags into the space.

Although there is no specific number of catties, it is estimated that the wheat grains harvested this year are about 3,200 catties. It's enough for her to eat steamed buns for several years.

In the afternoon of the same day, Shen Yunfang carried dozens of catties of wheat to the production team, while everyone went to work, grinded the wheat grains into flour, and steamed a pot of steamed buns for himself in the evening. (To be continued.) )
