Chapter 46 The Busy Farming Season
In the early morning of the second day, before dawn, Song Chen got up early, packed up all his things, and then washed up briefly, and then went to the town with Shen Yixun. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info
And until they left, Shen Yiwei was still asleep.
After a long time, the sky gradually brightened, and the autumn sun outside the window shone in through the window, and there was a slight warmth. Shen Yiwei yawned and opened her eyes, looked around a few times, and after lying quietly on the kang for a while, she put on her clothes and got up.
In the yard, Liu Hui and Lin Tuotuo had just gotten up, one of them was washing, and the other was about to go to the backyard to pick some vegetables and come back to make breakfast.
Seeing Shen Yiwei coming out of the room, the two of them acted in a daze, and then said hello to Shen Yiwei before continuing to go their separate ways.
"Awei, this is freshly beaten water." Lin Tuotuo pointed to the wooden barrel placed aside, and said to Shen Yiwei.
"Hmm." Shen Yiwei looked at her fingers, responded with a smile, and then stood in place and pulled up her loose hair casually, and then began to pour water and wash.
When they both finished washing, Liu Hui also picked up the dishes and went to the kitchen, and the two hurriedly went to the kitchen together to help cook. The three women chatted about family life while sitting on breakfast with their hands and feet.
"Mother, where is my father?" Shen Yiwei was working on the dishes in her hand, and suddenly remembered that she hadn't seen Shen Wende since she got up early, so she asked Liu Hui curiously.
Liu Hui was holding a knife to quickly cut vegetables, and replied without raising his head when he heard the words: "I went to the field, isn't this about to be planted, your father will go to the field to turn over the soil first in the past few days, we have few families, and we won't be busy in a few days." ”
Hearing Liu Hui say this, Shen Yiwei suddenly realized that it had been a long time, and it was autumn soon, and it was time to sow seeds.
Thinking about the Song family's land, Shen Yiwei estimated that the old man Song was about to find the door again. After all, although the Song family has a large population, there are only a few people who can really work in the fields.
Song Feng, the boss of the Song family, is idle all day long, it is estimated that he doesn't even know when he wants to plant wheat, let alone go to the field to help, as for Wei Fanglan, that is also a lazy person, Shen Yiwei remembered that in the past, every time it was the busy season of farming, Wei Fanglan either had a stomach ache or a headache, in short, there were many excuses to come out, and every time in the end, it was Song Chen, his second brother Song Rui, and Song Chen and her, the three of them.
As for Song Rui's daughter-in-law Lin Ruo, her small body is weak at first glance, and it is okay to let her cook, and let her go to the ground, it is really a little difficult.
And this year, because of her, Song Chen can now be said to have broken away from the Song family, although the Song family's few acres of land also have a part of him, but Shen Yiwei did not think of asking Song Chen to go home to help with farming, you must know that although those acres of land are Song Chen's, but in the end, all the grain planted was taken away by the Song family. She didn't believe that the people of the Song family would be so kind, and after Song Chen left home, she sent the part of the food that belonged to him to Song Chen.
Thinking in her heart, Shen Yiwei thought about it in her mind, if Old Man Song really came over to ask Song Chen to go home to help farm in a few days, what if Song Chen agreed? She couldn't stretch out her hand to stop Song Chen from letting him go home, no matter what she said, she couldn't force him to be so ruthless.
But if he really went home with Old Man Song to farm, then she really didn't feel very comfortable.
But what happened depends on what Song Chen does, so at this moment, Shen Yiwei's heart is looking forward to Song Chen's hurry back, and she is becoming more and more anxious.
Although there were two people who were not there, the few people left in the Shen family had a hearty breakfast.
After eating breakfast and putting away the dishes and chopsticks, Shen Yiwei saw that it was still early, and estimated that Song Chen would have to be pulled by her eldest brother to familiarize herself with the situation in the town, so she went to the field with Shen Wende with Lin Tuotuo.
Today's weather is not very hot, but the sun is high in the sky, and it still makes people a little dry, especially near noon, and people are sweating non-stop.
Because there are still a few days before it is time to sow seeds, it is just turning over the ground now, but it is such a simple job, which makes Shen Yiwei and Lin Tuo tired enough.
By noon, Shen Yiwei and Lin Tuotuo had turned over the ground together, and it was only half of Shen Wende's. But even so, after a morning, the three of them have made a lot, and it is estimated that tomorrow Shen Yixun and Shen Wende will come to get it for another day, and they will almost be finished.
Because he was busy in the field for a long time, Shen Wende was nothing, but Shen Yiwei and Lin dragged it, not only on their hands, but also on their faces, which looked quite funny.
When they returned home, the two of them had just put the farm tools in their hands on the wall and put them away, so they hurriedly went to fetch a basin of water and wash their faces. was washing, and saw Shen Yixun and Song Chen coming back outside the door.
Shen Yiwei hurriedly wiped the water droplets on her face, and then greeted her: "Big brother, how is it?" She asked Shen Yixun, but her eyes always glanced at Song Chen.
Shen Yixun saw it, didn't say much, looked at them with a slight smile, and walked to the house: "Let my brother-in-law tell you, I'll go drink saliva first." ”
Shen Yiwei was a little embarrassed by his eyes, and when she heard him say this, she nodded hurriedly, and then turned sideways to make way for Shen Yixun. When she saw Shen Yixun enter the house, she stepped forward to look at Song Chen with some anxiety and asked, "How is it?" ”
Her eyes were shining, and Song Chen couldn't help but be happy when she saw it, and then silently took out a cloth bag in her arms and handed it to Shen Yiwei.
Shen Yiwei lowered her head and looked at the cloth bag in her hand, then looked up at him again, and under Song Chen's nod, she opened the cloth bag in her hand, and then suddenly burst out in surprise: "So much?" She spread out her sack and counted it, and it was more than a tael of silver.
"Yes, these pastries you made this time, because some more expensive materials were added to them, so the price was relatively expensive, and the family that my eldest brother took me to seems to be very rich, it is said that his wife likes these new pastries you made very much, so he rewarded half a tael of silver, plus the ones that were originally sold, there are so many."
After Song Chen explained with a smile, he took the cloth bag in Shen Yiwei's hand, tied it again, and then put it back in Shen Yiwei's hand: "Daughter-in-law, you put it away." (To be continued.) )
