The countryside is busy in October, with potatoes, soybeans (soybeans) and sorghum all in time for harvest. There is nothing to say about potatoes, dig a sack; Sorghum, sorghum red is a wine, red sorghum is a work; Soybeans are the next story.

As soon as the monthly exam was over, Ye Liangchen went home again.

As soon as Ye Liangchen got home, he gathered around him and began to talk about those newly met classmates......

The Ye family has two plots of land, because they raise dairy cows, so they all grow corn, and a large part of the corn can be processed into feed after harvesting for the baby cows to eat. There is no grass to eat in winter, and most of the corn stalks have lost their moisture when they are ripe, and they need to be crushed before they can be eaten by cattle to replace grass. Generally, people who only raise one or two cows will buy their own guillotines to crush the straw, like Ye Liangchen's family, so many cows use a straw machine. At the beginning of October, the Ye family was relatively no different from usual, because the corn was relatively late, and it was not until mid to late October that the harvest began one after another. However, the enthusiasm of the rural people, it is very common for the east family to have something to do with the west family, although the Ye family has not started to farm work, Ye's father and Ye's mother always have someone who needs to go out to help the neighbors, Ye's father is strong, nearly forty years old, and his skillful farm work is still an indispensable main force; An authentic Northeast dish made by Ye Mu is often the chef in the kitchen. In the busy farming season, it is as lively as the New Year, and the fields and roads are full of busy figures. What impressed Ye Liangchen particularly was the soybeans.

What is beating soybeans? This starts with the process of harvesting soybeans, every year in the golden autumn and October, the soybeans all over the mountains are golden, and the mature pods bend the branches. At this time, you have to hurry up, if it is late, many pods will explode, and the beans will jump everywhere. Three or five peasant men, each holding a sickle, one person and one ridge, shook off their arms, brandished the sickle, accompanied by beads of sweat sprinkled in the black soil, a heavy soybean seedling was folded into a small pile of shape, until this piece was cut, a farm car, loaded with a full car, the men sat on the high and leisurely soybean car, laughing loudly.

The next step is to choose a place to stack the harvested soybean seedlings, the cement floor is the best and the most trouble-free, but unfortunately except for the playground of the middle school and primary school, it is a pity that it is not used for this. But it doesn't matter, for many years, people naturally have their own way, as long as the terrain is flat, it is enough to use a farm vehicle to pull a roller to repeatedly compact the ground in advance.

Finally, the soybean seedlings are stacked in a circle, and the rollers are pulled by the car to run a few laps, most of the beans have fallen to the ground, pick up the soybean seedlings that have been crushed and collapse and shake them off a few times, and put them aside, which is an excellent natural fuel for heating or cooking in winter. The beans on the ground were swept together with a broom, put into sacks, and put into the granary, and when it was done, it was time to go into the house and eat and drink.

From the harvest in the morning, to the car pulled to the house, to the time to threshk soybeans, it is generally in the evening, and it is just after the busy dinner is eaten, and the people in the village usually value dinner, not to mention inviting relatives and neighbors who have helped to contribute a day to eat, that must be delicious and delicious. In the past, everyone lived a very frugal life, only during the New Year's holidays would they buy fish and meat, and then there was this time, when they were invited to dinner.

In the memory of Ye Liangchen's predecessor, before their family did not raise cows, he was also an ordinary farmer, every time at this time, he and his sister would watch Ye's mother busy in the kitchen, and the eggs laid by the hens at home were matched with the leeks from their own vegetable garden, one golden and the other green; Stir-fried pork with large chili peppers (bell peppers) is fragrant; Braised carp, full of color, flavor, and so on, but unfortunately, although Mother Ye usually dotes on their brothers and sisters, she will not give them even a bite to taste all these dishes, regardless of the fact that there are no neighbors next to them to help, because these are for those adults who come to help the house to eat first.

If there are more dishes, there will be a little more leftovers, which is undoubtedly the happiest for the brother and sister. Father Ye accompanied everyone to finish eating, and Mother Ye would let the children eat first at this time, and she went to send it to the neighbors. If the dish is done just right, it will be very sad, and when the adults are full of wine and food, a large plate of fish may only have a main spin and a little minced meat on the plate, only chili peppers are left in the fried meat with chili, and only leeks are left in the leek eggs......

Not only the Ye family, but almost all farmers are like this, they will never get used to their children's food, but let them know that labor is the most glorious, and only when they work can they eat.

Of course, despite this, the children were very happy, not just for a few bites of good food. Because the time to thresh soybeans is generally in the evening, which is also the time for children to play before and after meals, there are bright lights in the soybean field, there are gathered crowds, and the children's favorite paradise - the bean stack (the soybean seedlings are crushed and packed up to form a high, soft 'hill'), they will dig holes in the bean stack and burrow into it, and enjoy their own little world.

With the gradual improvement of living standards in recent years, the phenomenon of not being able to eat leftovers is almost unseen, but the bean field is still lively. On the third day of Ye Liangchen's homecoming, it was just in time for the one, and the main venue was not elsewhere, it was his home.

His family doesn't grow soybeans, so why do they still make soybeans?

Luo Shan's family only raises two cows, so they don't need so much corn, and they have more land than the Ye family, so they will naturally grow a piece of soybeans with higher economic value. Although the Luo family moved away, the relationship with the Ye family is still very good, and the Luo family's newly moved house is adjacent to the road, except for their own cowshed is barely placed in the courtyard, the scope outside the courtyard is too small, and the farm vehicle runs a circle very hard, and once the soybeans are played, the nearby people can not get in and out of the car, which is obviously not good when the farm is busy, so in recent years, as long as the Luo family hits soybeans, it is in the big open space behind the Ye family's house, and this year is naturally the same.

The Luo family beat soybeans, but the Ye family was busy. Ye's father was the first knife in the field, and Ye's mother went to Luo's house to help cook. From noon, truckloads of soybeans were pulled back one after another, and the Ye family's house also temporarily became the command post of the Luojia soybean campaign, and relevant combat personnel came and went in it from time to time.

When the little Lori was pulling Ye Liangchen to play poker in his cottage, Luo Shan came, Xu remembered the last time he kissed Ye Liangchen, at first sight, Luo Shan's little face was red, like a little apple. Seeing the two playing poker, Luo Shan also joined the poker battle, just like playing poker on the grass when he first herded cattle, but this time Ye Liangchen was very casual, and he didn't deliberately remember the cards, but had more fun.

Unconsciously, a little tired, the three of them put down the poker in their hands, found a pillow to lie down and rested, Xiao Lori was in the middle, at first the three of them chatted, and then it was the topic of their school, she simply turned around and chatted with Luo Shan.

Xu is sleepiness came up, little Lori suddenly got off the ground with bare feet, plugged in the bedroom door casually, returned to the bed, and there was no sound for a long time.
