Chapter 163: Golden Wheat Waves
The black blind man is finally going to build a road - the news spread, and the men, women and children of the whole village are smiling, how many years have they been looking forward to, and finally waiting for this day.
I don't know whose house lit a firecracker, and in the crackling sound, the older generation of people in the village couldn't help but crackle and shed tears. Only after decades of vicissitudes of life can they know the hardships better.
Lao Wang became the most popular guest in the village, and if he hadn't insisted on building the fossil exhibition hall in the Black Blind Tun, the road might not have been repaired in the Year of the Monkey.
Construction of the road and the construction of the pavilion began almost simultaneously and is expected to be completed in the autumn of the following year. The exhibition hall is located in the empty field at the west end of the village, and the highway leads directly from the county to the black blind tun. In addition, Duolunuoer Banner also hitchhiked, and I don't know how the two provinces communicated, in short, in the road construction plan, there is also a road through Duolunuoer Banner and Black Blind Tun.
According to Li Xiaopang's estimate, He Shuiqing must have done a lot of work, although he didn't grab the exhibition hall to the Duolunuoer Banner, but after repairing this road, he can still follow a little light.
Li Xiaopang didn't mind much about this, and within the scope of his ability, he didn't mind helping He Shuiqing, a friend.
Whether it is the construction of the exhibition hall or the construction of the road, it is a large-scale mechanical operation, and it has nothing to do with the black blind man. The village only sent a few people who were familiar with the local situation during the survey stage, and there was nothing left to do.
After sending off the exchange students in the city, the black blind primary school also officially opened, and Yaya also returned to the classroom, carrying a small schoolbag every day and going to and from school with everyone. This is mainly due to the fact that Director Chu's film has been filmed and entered post-production, and is expected to be released during the winter vacation, after all, this film still belongs to the category of children's movies.
The children were busy going to school, while the adults in the black blind tun were busy harvesting wheat. The autumn harvest in the countryside can be roughly divided into two: one is the wheat autumn from the end of August to the beginning of September, which is mainly for wheat harvesting; One is the great autumn around the eleventh day, when all kinds of crops and crops are ripe and harvested.
Considering the large number of tourists, the black blind tun sown more wheat this year, and on the other hand, the bud rice and soybeans, which accounted for the majority in previous years, have been greatly reduced.
Li Xiaopang's plan is that every grain crop does not expect to be sold for money, and it is OK to be able to produce and sell it by itself. The key to this is that I really don't feel at ease when I eat other people's food.
For example, these tourists, eating the bud rice stubble of Heixiatun are particularly fragrant. At the beginning, many tourists bought dozens of catties of food when they left, and everyone was quite happy, after all, it was also an income; But later, after the grain hoards of every household bottomed out, I realized that something was wrong: my family was running out of food!
And this wheat harvest is just in time for the rain.
Because it had been raining for the past few days, the large harvesters could not enter, so they simply organized the labor force in the village, sharpened the sickle, and took advantage of the sunny weather to harvest the wheat.
Early in the morning, as soon as the sun rose, the laborers of each family had breakfast and gathered at the entrance of the village. The standard for each person is a straw hat, a sickle, a whetstone, a towel on their shoulders, and a kettle in their hands.
Warmer? That's right, it's a thermos. However, it was not filled with hot water, but water from the well, which was pulled out of the cool and poured into the thermos. You know, the thermos flask can also ensure low temperature.
On this hot day, if you don't work and sweat, drink a sip of cool well water, from the throat to the stomach, that is called comfort.
More than 50 strong laborers went down to the field to cut wheat, followed by more than 20 little dolls, each carrying a small basket. Because it's Saturday, the babies are also on holiday, follow the ears of wheat, and return the grains to the warehouse.
Behind the Boy Scouts, there was a large group of people, about one hundred and ten, under the leadership of Sister Lin, and Yoyo Dada followed behind the wheat harvesting army. These were all tourists who had come last night, and many of them had never seen such a scene of wheat cutting, especially the city dolls, who were eager to join in the fun. Sister Lin is also as good as a stream, which can be regarded as a tourist experience.
With the booming tourism industry in Black Blind Tun, many tourists are now smart enough to rush here on Friday afternoons so that they can stay one more night and experience the quiet and hectic rural life in the summer. Especially for those who have their own land in the Black Blind Tun, this month, almost every Saturday and Sunday come to the Black Blind Tun to report.
The wheat fields are just south of the village, and as far as the eye can see, they are golden and boundless. The breeze caressed, the wheat waves rolled, and the scene was quite spectacular.
"In the distance, under the blue sky, golden waves of wheat surged. It used to be the place where you and I loved—" Uncle Silly took the lead in singing the ballad, and many of the tourists echoed it. As long as there is a silly uncle, there is singing.
Dragonflies – The dolls in the city began to exclaim, and over the wheat fields, countless dragonflies fluttered their golden wings and flew freely.
"Grasshopper!" There was also the sound of a grasshopper rubbing its wings in the ears, which, of course, was the sound of a grasshopper in the children's cognition.
With the shouts of the dolls, the labor also kicked off: the village chief's uncle divided the land, a few acres of land per person, and everyone went hand in hand. The sound of the scythe cutting the wheat stubble was loud.
Tourists are not idle, helping their children catch gnats and crickets; The village boys used wheat straw to weave delicate crates of gnats, and then put the caught grasshoppers into the hut, and then stuffed them into a nest of melon flowers, and they all lived.
The yellow cage of the gnatfish was like woven of gold, and the little hands of the city dolls were so happy that they were red, which was probably the biggest gain of their trip.
After a long period of busy work, the tourists looked up, good fellows, the army of wheat cutters had advanced a long way, and all that was left in the field was inches of wheat stubble, and there were bundles of wheat poking there.
It was only then that they exclaimed: This wheat is too tall!
It's all a big piece just now, so I can't really see it; Only then did it become clear that the cut wheat straw was waist-high. The ears of wheat at the top were thick and large, as if they were about to swell.
"Is this wheat or millet?" Among the tourists, there are people who make such exclamations.
Li Xiaochub, who was busy cutting wheat, couldn't help but shrink his neck after hearing this: Hehe, it's all my fault, in order to harvest more, there are more "urea" on it-
There are also tourists who go up and pull an ear of wheat and rub it in their palms for a while. The wheat grains are not completely dry, so they are not very easy to rub. However, the wheat grains are even more pleasant: the grains are plump and round, like little fat people.
"It can't be a genetically modified crop, right?" Doubts were expressed.
"What are you talking about, the wheat in our village doesn't even have a drop of chemical fertilizer—" Li Da understood that he was just going back to the field to drink water, and when he heard this, he was not happy, snatched a few grains of wheat from the man's palm, threw them into his mouth and chewed them.
Tourists also have a good energy, also follow the taste, the wheat is fragrant, chewing and chewing, and slightly sweet, unconsciously a little addicted, and ran to the field next to the wheat ears to pull the ears of wheat, and shouted in the mouth: "I wondered, why didn't I eat this taste of the flour I bought before——"
"That is, people have to die more than people, and goods have to be thrown away. The wheat in our tun is not used with pesticides and fertilizers at all, and that is pure green food. Li Da understood that his face was also happy, and he actually wondered a little in his heart: I used to grow wheat, but why has it never grown so strong and nirvana like this year?
In addition to being happy, Li Da understood that he gathered all the dolls who were also about to taste the wheat together, and asked Xiaoshan Xiaohu to lead them to burn wheat to eat.
This is also a joy in the countryside, before the wheat grains are full of pulp and not completely dry, put the wheat on the hay to burn, and then rub off the roasted wheat grains and throw them into the mouth, that is called fragrant. Not to mention children, even adults, when the wheat is about to ripen, who doesn't burn it once or twice.
There was firewood next to the wheat field, all of which were beaten with artemisia poles and the like, and a few bundles of dried ones were just brought in, and after the fire was lit, the children took handfuls of wheat and put them on the fire. As soon as the tongue of fire licked, the straw came from under the ears of wheat, and the ears fell into the fire. It doesn't matter, because the firewood is not so hard, and it goes out after two minutes of burning, just enough to cook the wheat.
As the smoke burned, the aroma spread, attracting the monkey to come to him, and his little paws swooped out a blackened ear of wheat from the fire.
The ears of wheat were still a little hot, and the monkey three couldn't care about it, so he rubbed his slap twice, blew a few more breaths, and blew off the black ashes, leaving the wheat grains roasted to a golden brown, and he had an appetite when he looked at it.
As soon as Monkey San was about to throw it into his mouth, he heard a loud roar behind him: "Wow, this scourge of crops is coming!" Immediately, I saw a big fat hand reach over, grab the little paw of the monkey three, and then confiscate all the wheat grains.
The babies are dumbfounded: it's so fierce-
"Uncle Little Fat, do you understand the name of the master-" Xiaoshan was about to explain, but saw Li Xiaopang raise his hand, throw the wheat grains into his mouth, chew them a few times, and nodded with a retrospective face: "It's still the same smell when I was a child, fragrant, so fragrant!" ”
Hey, when the babies looked at it, they all started to pull the ears of wheat from the ash heap, and soon, they all ate black mouths.
Monkey San didn't do it anymore, pointed at Li Xiaopang and squeaked: It's time to rob it, isn't it?
Li Xiaopang patted the black ash on his hand, and then he: "Monkey three, if you don't rob it again, you will be robbed by others——"
Only then did the little monkey react and join the army of snatching the ears of wheat. And Li Xiaopang continued to cut wheat after getting used to cold water, and his heart was still full of nostalgia: When I was a child, I didn't burn wheat, and after a while, I could also burn potatoes and bud rice...... The most fragrant is the roasted soybeans, and after burning, use hemp seeds to pat on them. The aroma of hemp seeds is also burned out by the fire, so that the burned soybeans taste particularly fragrant. Hemp seeds shoot beans, I really miss it-
