Chapter 367: Help
Hua Jiao looked at it, and the smile couldn't stop overflowing from the corners of his eyes and eyebrows. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
Yibi grinned and stood up straight with his knees, and Yibi shouted to the sisters around who were burying their heads in picking up ears of rice to look up: "Uncles, uncles and little brothers have come to help us!" ”
When the three fennel and lilac fragrant leaf sisters and the three of Ya'er heard the words of the pepper, they all looked around, looking at the faces that were indeed familiar, and they were as dumbfounded as the peppercorns before.
His eyes widened again, and he looked at it carefully before he realized that it was true.
Xiangye blinked and looked at the peppercorns, looking puzzled.
Lilac had already greeted a few little boys in the field next door who were also digging up ears of rice: "Eh, why are you here?" Don't have to go to school? Is the school also busy with farming? ”
Because this year is really not the same as before, the crops that have been ripe in the field are waiting to be harvested, and the spring flowers are also anxious to be sown, so Qin Lianbao gave his school a five-day vacation after discussing with Qin's father.
Qin Lianbao not only followed him down to the ground, but also frightened the neighbors who saw him hunched over and busy cutting rice.
I never thought that Master Xiucai would also go to the field to do farm work, but he didn't come back to his senses for a long time.
Even the string of little boys led by the stone, plus Luo Ji Wenqi, have never been idle. was arranged by Father Qin to take care of the vegetable field at home, or feed the pigs and cattle, or help the old lady Qin and others who threshed and turned the sun.
It's cloves that ask this question.
Hua Jiao saw that the little boys turned around when they heard the greeting, and hurriedly shouted "sister" respectfully, and one of the little boys who looked the oldest nodded to Lilac and said: "We have ten days off in the school, my family has little land, and the rice has been harvested, my father brought me over to help, and my father arranged for us to pick up rice ears here......
Several other little boys also chimed in, chattering, and some of the family's crops had already been harvested from the field, and they followed their mother to help. Some did not wait for all the crops in the family to come ashore, so they asked to come over or were arranged by the elders of the family.
And beside Xiangye, I don't know where to rub over a little girl and a little boy, who is calling Sister around Xiangye.
Just look at the size, it is smaller than Sichuan pepper.
Sichuan pepper looks a little familiar, but I don't know which little character it is.
Xiangye recognized it, smiled and teased them to say hello, and asked them to call Sister Huajiao, and took peach cakes from their purses to eat with them.
It's not the first time that the two little things have been eaten from the bay leaves, and they thanked them with a smile, one swallowed them in two bites, and the other held them and chewed them slowly, but they were not idle, their eyes were dripping, and they had already begun to look around looking for rice ears.
Huajiao looked at the two little things that were familiar with the house, and asked the two of them with a smile: "How did you come here?" Do you parents know? ”
The two nodded in unison, and the little boy said, "My father brought me here." ”
He also said: "My father said that I will have to do my homework with Mr. Qin in the future, so I have to come over to help." ”
The little girl nodded and hurriedly swallowed the peach crisp in her mouth, but said in a small voice: "I can also pick up ears of rice, and I also want to be literate." ”
……
Only then did Hua Jiao know that so many neighbors, young and old, who came one after another, came over to give their family a hand.
They are all villagers who live not far away, and the fields at home are more back-to-back or face-to-face, how can you not know the situation of the Qin family.
More than 70 acres of fields, over the years, Father Qin has led the Qin family brothers, and when the farm is busy, plus three or five busy workers, they are still intensively cultivated.
All year round, spring flowers and autumn crops are planted in rotation.
As long as God appreciates the face, the harvest over the years is good.
Spring flowers are mainly wheat rapeseed, while autumn grass is mostly rice. In addition, some beans and grains are ordered according to local conditions, and most of the family's chews come out of this field.
It is busy with two seasons a year, and it is busy cutting wheat and planting rice during the summer harvest. Now that the autumn harvest is harvesting, it is natural that we have to be busy cutting rice and planting wheat.
Coupled with threshing and raising the field, as well as deep ploughing and land preparation, cleaning the canals, and preparing for the sowing of spring flowers, a whole set of work was put down, and when the rice was returned to the warehouse and the spring flowers were sown, the Qin family had to at least be busy for the rest of the month.
If it's left in previous years, it's fine.
The children of the Qin family are all well-known for their ability and hard work, and often Father Qin will hire several more helpers, so that before the winter, he can always take care of the work in the field in an orderly manner.
It's just that on this year's day, Rao is old hall craftsman who understands the sky can't figure out God's vein. I don't know if the sky seems to be clear, and the sun can come out for a few days.
What's more, this is the beginning of the winter solar term, and it looks like there will be light snow, and when the soil in the field is frozen, the harvest of next year will be ruined.
Therefore, many old and young masters who had received the favor of the Qin family, especially those who had children in the Qin family who were tutored by Qin Lianbao, had just collected the rice grains in their own fields, and rushed over to help the Qin family harvest the rice while they were drying and drying.
I am afraid that if it is too late, the Qin family's rice will rot in the ground, and even the spring flowers will have to be frozen in the ground and cannot sprout.
I didn't discuss it, and the few that came over one after another from the dock were all automatically and spontaneously come to help.
Not only did the old and young masters carry their hands down to the field, but many women and Taoist families also went to Qin's house to help Qin's mother-in-law and daughter-in-law Yao's mother-in-law transport the threshed rice to the castle wall and dry it in a thin stall.
is so stingy to help, this is something that Huajiao, and even the Qin family never expected.
Not to mention the pepper sisters, at first, Father Qin and everyone were a little dumbfounded.
Although this time, Father Qin is no longer refusing everyone's kindness, and from time to time he has to arrange work for the old and young masters who have come over to help one after another, or cut or bear or thresh, but in his heart, he has mixed feelings.
Suddenly, I thought of it, so I found Qin Lianhu, who was cutting rice in the field, and discussed with him: "Look, our family kills the first year pig in advance from time to time, please have a meal?" ”
As soon as Qin Lianhu heard this, he knew that the old man couldn't help it.
And to be honest, looking at everyone's help like this, his heart is also warm.
He wiped his face and said with a smile: "Okay! As he spoke, he looked around and saw his little girls, and said, "I'll ask Lilac to run, go home and talk to my mother, look at the yellow calendar, let's kill pigs." ”
