Chapter 115: Picking Wild Grapes

The sky is beautiful, and the fiery sun shines on the people working in the fields.

No one complains about the hot weather, some are just happy, and only in this kind of weather can the autumn harvest be successfully completed.

The autumn harvest work of Taoyuan Villa is still in full swing, the conservatory has been built at the same time, and those hired workers have been given three days off to go home to help their families with the autumn harvest.

The once unused warehouse was put to use this time, and the corn and rice that were left as seeds were placed on the highest level, which could give birth to golden dolls.

Everyone in the mountain villa, everything that could be dispatched was dispatched, not only corn and rice, but also other crops planted by Gu Xinyu also achieved high yields.

Looking at the grain in the warehouse, I really responded to that sentence, I have food in my hand, and I don't panic!

Grandma Sun was busy with a smile and Mama Wang, pickling all kinds of kimchi to prepare for the winter, and also making amber peanuts for these people as snacks.

And in the east of Dujia Village, Zheng, who has just returned from the field, no longer has the sorrow of the previous years, because she knows that even if the harvest is not much, she still has the cabbage radish of the eight acres of land, plus the front and back of his house, planting a lot, and under the careful service of the family, under the care of God, the growth is gratifying, especially the cabbage leaves, which are green and green, and the rhizomes are still very thick.

Therefore, for the first time, the Zheng family took out the only family property, saved fifty copper plates from frugality, and counted twenty. handed it over to Erya, and asked her to go to the town to buy a pound of meat, the kind that wants to be fat, looked at the husband who was dumbfounded next to him, and took out five copper plates ruthlessly, and cautiously explained to Erya, only playing five yuan of wine, and buying meat for twenty yuan.

The second and third girls swallowed happily, meat, their family hadn't smelled meat for a few years. I remember that my grandmother took meat a few years ago. It's just that when I married my aunt and entered the house, I didn't dare to make up for my family anymore.

Sometimes, I pass by the second uncle's house and smell the aroma of his family's food and meat. Say no, it's greedy. That's fake. But I can't go in if I'm greedy, and my grandmother looks at her sisters with disgust, even though her own family is full of girls. can't be looked down upon, my mother said, you have to have a backbone! So, this month, except for the youngest sister, everyone else is working hard, and I just hope that this year will be a different year!

And some of the planting skills that Du Dalang and Gu Xin learned were different from others when they were harvested in the autumn.

In the 30 acres of fields, the millet and wheat that were planted were almost planted with the farmland tax to be paid compared with previous years, which means that there was enough food rations for the whole family for three months.

At the same time, many people in the village begged him to hand over this method to them next year, Du Dalang did not refuse, but quietly told them that next year Taoyuan Villa will lead everyone to plant together, and each family is ready to work on the people and land.

And today, the village chief convened a meeting with everyone, and the theme of the meeting was that each family could spare idle labor to go to the mountains to pick wild grapes, and the owner of Taoyuan Villa was responsible for the purchase, and how much to collect.

This news made everyone boil, and they were talking about it below, and Zheng Shi started and asked: "Village chief, are you talking about the sour mountain grapes in the mountains?" ”

A person named Du Liqiang also asked: "The grapes are sour to death, take a bite, sour a row of teeth, can't eat for a day, what does the owner of the villa want to collect it for?" Village Chief, didn't you warn her? Is it that she is young and doesn't understand this, and when the time comes, we won't be able to go in our hearts! ”

Baozhu is a bastard, and when he heard the words, he said: "As far as you can show, people have money, they can do whatever they want, what do you care about a poor ghost?" ”

Du Liqiang was unconvinced: "What's wrong with me when I'm poor, I have to talk about my conscience when I'm poor, the big guy said, since there is Taoyuan Villa, how much light has been borrowed by the people in our village!" Don't say anything else, let's just say that Old Man Du's family, Du Dalang, your family has built three big tile houses, if it weren't for Taoyuan Villa, how could your family have this scenery? ”

Du Dalang's eyes glared at Baozhu: "Don't forget to dig wells, be a man to be grateful, you are talking nonsense, be careful that I beat you!" ”

After saying that, the demonstrator raised his fist.

Baozhu looked at the disapproving eyes of the people around him, and said embarrassedly: "I just said it casually, and everyone treated me as a fart, hehe." ”

Everyone laughed, and Zheng immediately asked, "Village Chief, tell us what you want." “

The village chief nodded: "Yes, the main family has requirements, to keep the original state, do not damage, the better the grapes, the higher the price, how much, wait for everyone to pick the grapes and take them directly to the villa, there is a checkout, the master also said, everyone should not disperse into the mountain, the mountain is dangerous, it is best to be a group of ten people, or a family, in short, must pay attention to safety!" ”

Everyone listened to the heart, and they all said that the lives of the poor are cheap, but who doesn't want to be rich, it's a pity that they didn't reincarnate well.

Someone takes their life seriously, and anyone's heart is moved.

When Zheng returned home, he and Du Tiehua started to make preparations, their own food was small, and they worked hard in two or three days, and they were thinking about finding some work, and a pie fell from the sky.

Although there are no sons in his own family, the following three daughters are also hardworking and capable.

In particular, his own family was one step ahead of other people's families, and he put his youngest daughter in the house of the third aunt, who had a good relationship on weekdays, and the family of five entered the mountain that day.

The grapes in the mountains are ripe, because they are not delicious, so no one has ever picked this thing, and there is time to pick some fungus mushrooms or something, which is also a serious food.

Therefore, as far as the eye can see, there are black and pressed purple grapes, and there is no need to go far at all.

They are all people who work often, and their hands and feet are diligent, especially Zheng's is even more numb, and he is still staring at Du Tiehua while picking to prevent him from working hard and damaging the grapes

Although the youngest Siya is only seven years old, she is also smart, and she followed the two sisters to scream, and she didn't lag much behind.

These people, the slowest is Du Tiehua, he is afraid of being damaged for a while, so he is more careful, so he is invisibly lagging behind, but he has the strength, one can protect his family, and the other can pick up two big baskets on one shoulder.

In this way, in the afternoon, it took less than two hours for the six baskets brought by the family to be full.

When I walked to Taoyuan Villa, at the gate, there was a purchase point, which was in charge of Uncle Wang, and a large scale was also standard, and it definitely did not take advantage of these farmers.

On the table next to it, a large bucket of tea was also placed for the mountain quarryers to quench their thirst.

Gu Xinyu ran over because he was fine for the time being, and saw that the first person to send grapes was Zheng, and greeted happily: "Aunt Du, you are really capable, you have picked so much, you are the first one!" (To be continued.) )

PS: I am also looking forward to the day of the harvest, cheer for me, dear guys!
