Autumn harvest is on
We picked for about two hours, and the small basket was filled, "Yaya, next time we have time, we will come and pick mushrooms together, it's so interesting." Qi Qi was a little unsatisfied, her basket was already full and was put on Li Qi's back, I suddenly felt that such a childhood sweetheart was really good.
"Everyone is tired, let's sit down to eat something and drink some water," took out the mat that my mother brought me, everyone sat together and began to eat, although it was just a sugar bun, but it was also very satisfying, after eating, I rested again, carried the mushrooms on my back, and drove the duck back happily.
"Yaya, see you tomorrow, I'll scare my mother when I go back, hehe. After Qi Qi finished speaking, he left with Li Qi,
When I went back, it was already dark, and my mother was waiting for me at the gate, "Big girl, I look very good at that friend of yours, and we will often play together in the future, our house will be in a while, and when your father comes back with money, you can build a new one" My mother said, took my basket, and took me back to the house.
It turned out that my mother was worried that I would be looked down upon by my friends, my house is the only earthen house in the village, and the house is very small, if it was my former self, maybe I would really care a little, but now I don't care at all, I am very glad to be able to go back to my childhood, "Mom, it's okay, I think it's very comfortable to live in a mud house, we don't have to rush to build a house, and my friends won't care" I said to my mother
My mother looked at me and smiled with relief, I have been back for so long, and I have not improved the family's economy, I really have a little failure, but the duck is about to grow up, and life will soon get better, I cheer myself up in my heart
Time flies quickly, in the blink of an eye, it is October, during this time I have become very good friends with relatives, Li Qi and Wang He are also because of our relationship, the relationship is getting better and better, the feelings of boys and girls are different, they will not be like us, like conjoined babies, at this time there is no eleventh long holiday, our school is busy with farming, because the autumn harvest is about to begin.
The land at home used to be done with the backyard, because our family has little land, and my mother has to help them do a lot of work for nothing every time, this time, it is good to have a stiff problem with the backyard, and they did not call my mother in the autumn harvest, so I can go to the ground with my mother.
Our family has a total of 10 acres of land, all planted with peanuts, my mother originally did not agree with me to go, after all, I am still young, and I can't do any work, I think my mother is too hard to do alone, I can do a little bit of my mother can be a little more leisurely, and finally my mother can't resist me, so I agreed.
On the first day of the autumn harvest, Wang He came early, because Grandma Zhang's land was contracted out, so he was not busy now, "Big girl, I will go to the field with you, my grandmother said to go to my house to eat at noon, so that the work can be faster,"
"Xiaohe, no need, we have little land, in fact, I can be busy myself, the eldest girl has to follow, Aunt Zhang is old, how can she still cook for me." Mom hurriedly said
"If I didn't get older, I would follow you to the ground, you should go quickly, lunch will be handed over to me, I can still cook" Grandma Zhang was afraid that her mother would refuse, so she also came to my house, and when she heard our conversation, she said it directly.
After hearing this, my mother was full of emotion, every autumn harvest, I eat cold rice at home, and even the old lady in the backyard didn't help me make a hot meal, "Aunt Zhang, then I'll trouble you," my mother said to Grandma Zhang
Because there is no machine now, you can only pluck peanuts by hand, fortunately it rained yesterday, the land is still very wet, and it is not very difficult to pull up, Wang He and I are still small and don't have to bend down, my mother is very hard, I have to bend over, and I will stand up straight and rest after a while.
When we went back at noon, Grandma Zhang had already finished the dishes, and after lunch, my mother just wanted to clean up the table, "You go to sleep for a while, you still have to work in the afternoon, you don't need to clean up, I will finish this work in a while," Grandma Zhang said
Mom wanted us to take a break, and after lunch, we didn't go directly to the ground, at two o'clock in the afternoon, we got up and went to work in the field, and just after a while, we saw Qi Qi and Li Qi running towards us, "Yaya, let's go to your house to find you and Wang He to play, Grandma Zhang said that you went to work in the field, we came directly, I and Brother Li Qi also do it together, we haven't done it yet." Qi Qi said
"It's not okay for you to dress like this, your clothes are dirty after work, and if you really want to do it, you have to change your clothes and wear a hat, otherwise you will get a tan. I said to Qi Qi, I was not too embarrassed to ask her to help, the autumn harvest was still very tired
"Okay, let's go back and change clothes right away," Qi Qi listened to my words and pulled Li Qi and ran away, "Big girl, you don't need your friends to help, this work is also quite tiring." Mom also said
"It's okay, Mom, she wants to try it, let her try, we'll go back later, pass by the small puddle to see if there are any fish, go back and make fish for them to eat." ”
Mom thought about it for a while, and didn't say anything, I think my mom is too hard, so I want to finish this work as soon as possible, and after a while, I must think about how to get rich, and strive not to let my mother work in the field, I can't do it anymore,
After a while, Qi Qi pulled Li Qi over, the clothes on their bodies had been changed to dirt-resistant colors, and they all wore hats, "Yaya, we are here, you see if this time will work, we have to learn to do farm work today, you have to teach me well" Qi Qi was afraid that I would refuse her, so she took my hand and said. I am very touched that they are coming back to help us now, they really regard me as a friend, and I will take more care of them in the future, I thought silently in my heart.
I told them how to pull peanuts, Qi Qi was not skilled at first, often after pulling peanuts, people sat directly on the ground, I told her how to use skill, otherwise tomorrow her hands will hurt, slowly she became proficient, because there are two more people, originally needed to do a morning of work tomorrow, this afternoon was done,
I saw that the work was almost done, so I led them to catch fish in the small river ditch, the small river ditch is the name of one of our rivers, because it is living water and there is no pollution, the river water is very clean, there are many half-foot-long fish in it, during the autumn harvest, many people in the village will come here to catch fish to satisfy their hunger, after all, this is also meat,
We first went home and got a small fishing net, and also brought a little cornmeal from Grandma Zhang as bait, first put the big net into the river, and then we used the small net made by my father for me to start fishing for clams, although the clams are small, but the meat is delicious, and it is a good dish when it is done
About an hour later, seeing that it was a little dark, we decided to close the net and go back to eat, and today we had a good harvest, we caught two crucian carp, and we also caught a lot of small clams, and we had enough food for the evening
The dinner was very rich, and my mother went back directly to cook dinner with Grandma Zhang after finishing her work, with braised crucian carp and stir-fried clams.
