Fee Chapter (12 points)

It turned out that this was the case, and Lian Man'er looked at a few people who were cutting sorghum in the distance. In the past half of the day, they have already had a succession. Even the old man is in his fifties, and he is still some distance ahead of the three who are in the prime of life.

"Dad, take a break." Lian Shouxin followed closely behind Old Man Lian, looked up at the sky, and then looked at Old Man Lian's sweaty back, and proposed. Even the old man, in the words of the farmer, is a man who hates work. It's just that I can't wait to finish the work in one go, and I don't stop doing it.

Even when the old man heard this, he grabbed the cut sorghum stalk with one hand, straightened his waist, looked at the sky, estimated that it had been dry for about an hour and a half, and looked back at a few people who were tired and sweating profusely with their grandsons, and nodded.

"Chapter 40: Let's rest the sweet rod."

Even the old man put down the sickle in his hand and sat on the ridge to rest.

Gorou and Lian Man'er walked to the cart, where there was a large porcelain jar with a spout wrapped in broken cotton wool, filled with water, which had been brought from home in the morning. Wulang hugged the big porcelain jar, and Lian Man'er took a few bowls and sent them to Old Man Lian.

Gorou held the jar and poured a bowl of water into the bowl that Lian Man'er was carrying. Lian Man'er handed it to Old Man Lian.

"Master, drink water."

Even the old man agreed, took the bowl, and drank all the water from his neck.

Gorou wants to pour another bowl for Old Man Lian.

"I don't drink it. Master smokes. As the old man spoke, he took out a pocket containing tobacco and straw paper from his belt, rolled a cigarette and smoked it.

At this time, everyone also went to get bowls and drink water. Lian Man'er saw Zhang sitting against the sorghum stack, so she poured a bowl of water, gave it to Zhang, and then sat down next to Zhang.

"Tired, Man'er?" Zhang took the bowl, took a sip, and asked Lian Man'er.

"I'm not tired," Lian Man'er said, "Brother and sister will help me with that." ”

As he was talking, even Zhi'er, Wulang and Xiaoqi also left, and they all sat down beside Zhang. Xiao Qi was still coquettishly leaning on Zhang's arms.

Chapter 40 The sweet rod even Shouyi and Lian Shouli sat next to the old man, and also rolled up the dry tobacco and smoked. He drank a bowl of water, walked to the side, took a few sorghum stalks that were specially left, cut off the sorghum ears on them, cut the sorghum stalks into half an arm's length, and walked to the place where Zhang and the children were resting.

"Sweet rod, Dad picked a sweet rod for us." Xiao Qi saw Lian Shouxin holding the sorghum stalk, and immediately sat up straight, with two dimples on his smiling cheeks.

"Sweet rods?"

Even keep your word and leave, and put down the bundle of sweet sticks.

"It's all sweet, don't cut your mouth." After speaking, he also leaned against the sorghum stack and sat down.

Lian Zhi'er, Wulang, and Xiaoqi all picked up one, and Lian Man'er also picked one and picked it up.

The sorghum stalks are also section-by-section, somewhat similar to sugarcane, of course, much thinner. Most sorghum stalks are not sweet, only a few are sweet. Even Shouxin is the best at picking sweet sticks, he only picks up those long green and green, after cutting them, taste a bite on the stubble, and make sure that it is sweet, he will deliberately stay, and then cut it into small pieces to make snacks for a few children.

Rural people, extremely poor in material, rarely eat sugar, sweet sorghum stalks, very delicious for children.

Peel off the outer skin, and the inside is full of sweet juice, take a bite into it, swallow the sweet juice, and then spit out the minced pieces, just like eating sugar cane.

Even the vines chewed wingly, not as sweet as sugar cane, with a lot of moisture and a sweet mouth. No, Lian Man'er praised in her heart. Lian Zhi'er is a girl, and she is the boss, she eats more reservedly, and Gorou also thinks that she is an adult, but she still can't hide the love in her heart, and Xiao Qi is even more undisguised, chewing with a happy face.

Even Shouxin and Zhang looked at a few children with smiles in their eyes.

A gentle breeze blew through, blowing even Man'er's sweaty clothes, and she suddenly felt that the pores of her whole body were opened, which was very comfortable. Neither the toil nor the material deprivation hindered the true happiness they felt at this moment.

Happiness can actually be very simple, Lian Man'er thought in her heart, this is the true fun of pastoral life.

Of course, if you can be a little richer, a little richer, it will be more satisfying. You have to work hard for it, Lian Man'er. Lian Man'er secretly cheered.

After drinking enough water and smoking a bag of cigarettes, even the old man got up from the ground again.

"Old 2, you go to the cart."

It's time to start shipping home.

Lian Shouyi agreed, and went to push the flatbed. Start by using sorghum stalks as mats and stacking bundles of sorghum ears on top. Filled a cart and began to deliver it home. The other people in the field continued their original work, and when they were connected to the righteous luck, they changed the two lucks of Dalang and Erlang, and then Lian Shouli and Lian Shouxin.

When even Mamoyoshi pushed the cart home, Shiro and Rokuro also followed to help push the cart. Da Lang and Erlang are a group, and no one else is needed. It's Lian Shouli's turn, that is, Lian Ye'er is busy with her father's cart, and when Lian Shouxin arrives, Lian Zhi'er's children will take turns to help.

When the sun is in the right place, it will be noon, and the hottest time of the day will come, and the crops in the field will be ready to call it a day.

Even the old man said that there was no need to cut it anymore, and the last truck of the cut sorghum would be transported, and the day's work would be over.

As soon as the whole family went home, and when they entered the village, they saw several mule carts parked at the gate of Lian's house, and a few porters moving down from the carts to the door. One of the mule carts had a canopy in the shape of a sedan chair, which the villagers called a sedan. In this village, only Wang Ju's family has such a car, and Wang Youheng is also sitting in such a car.

"Step-grandfather!" Lian Shouxin said with a smile.

Old Man Lian nodded and quickened his pace.

Entering the gate, Lian Man'er saw a young man wearing ochre-colored silk and white skin commanding the porters, who was Lian Shouren's Dalian step-ancestor.

Lian Jizu saw Old Man Lian enter the door and hurriedly greeted him.

"Master." Even the step-ancestors will kneel.

Even the old man was busy holding Lian Jizu, which would be consolidated, and the Gu family came out with a young child. This little is Lian Jizu's wife Jiang, and Jiang also holds a little girl about two years old in her hand, who is the daughter of their husband and wife, and her nickname is Niuniu.

"Alright, let's go inside." Even the old man said.

Everyone entered the house with a hula cheer, even the old man sat on the kang, and even the step-ancestor and the Jiang family knelt down again, and kowtowed to the old man in a serious manner, even Niuniu was also held by the Jiang family and kowtowed to the old man Lian.

Even the old man had a smile on his face that couldn't be hidden, so he asked Lian Jizu to get up and sit beside him, and let Lian Shouren sit on the side, and even Shouyi, even Shouli, and even Shouxin also sat down, and even the old and young masters of the family started.

Gu sent the porter outside. It is said that everything in the town has been moved, and the original rented house has also been returned. Jiang and Lian Hua'er arranged the cage in the West House, and Gu came to check the gifts brought from the town with Zhou and Lian Xiu'er.

Inside and outside the house, it was bustling.

Lian Man'er glanced into the west room, and saw that large and small boxes were stacked one by one, and almost half of the room was still filled.

The Lian family's family is now all gathered, and it goes without saying that the old man is happy.

"Man'er, Xiaoqi, you two go to the temple and give the master half a catty of wine." Old man Lian asked Zhou to give Lian Man'er money to drink.

Speaking of which, even the old man usually has two hobbies, one is smoking and the other is wine. Tobacco is home-grown dry tobacco and dried dry tobacco leaves. I didn't have wine at home, so I had to go out and buy it. The old man Lian loves wine, but because the family has no money, every time he asks Lian Man'er to have a few small ones, take a small wine jug, go to the grocery store at the head of the temple, and buy them one, two, one or two. One or two wines, just a little bit of food, you can drink two or three meals.

Zhou was also happy, so he took the money out of the money bag.

"Master, I'll bring you wine." Lian Jizu hurriedly stopped the Zhou family, "It's an authentic pear blossom white." ”

Lian Jizu got up and took a jar of wine from a pile of gifts to show Old Man Lian.

Even the old man usually drinks sorghum shochu roasted in a small pot, and when he heard that there was pear blossom white, his eyes immediately lit up.

"Okay, okay, just drink the wine that my eldest grandson gave me, pear blossom white."

"There are also trough cakes, sugar, and rulers for grandpa, grandma, and my aunt to buy to make clothes." Lian Jizu pointed to the two packets of trough cakes, a packet of sugar, and two rulers, one green and one red, on the cabinet. "Yueniang also bought Hangzhou noodles for her milk."

Zhou was also happy.

"What Hangzhou fans, that's precious, I'm old, can I still use that? Give it to your aunt. ”

"Milk isn't old." Even the step-ancestor said, "My aunt's share is also there, and there is also Rouge." ”

"The step-ancestor, this kid hurts." Zhou smiled and rubbed Lian Jizu's back.

The whole room burst into laughter.

There were too many people, and they couldn't stand in the house, and even Man'er pulled Zhang's family, and the mother and daughter came out of the upper room and went back to the west wing. Lian Zhi'er came in with a basin of water, and everyone washed their hands and faces.

Lian Man'er looked at the dress, dress, and action of the Lian family's big house, and couldn't help but ask the Zhang family the questions in her heart.

"Mother, Uncle and Brother Lobby are in town, are they very rich, don't skip words. Lian Man'er asked.

This question stumped Zhang's a little.

“…… Your uncle is a showman, and at the beginning, he had two catties of rice a day, and he was exempt from hard labor. Later, I didn't get into the exam, and every year I did the show, there was also a county exam to evaluate the grade, and the top 20 were given to the rice. Your uncle only received it for a few years, and then he never received it again. ”

"Isn't that uncle still teaching in the library, how much money can he earn every year?"

"At the beginning, it was okay, all the people I was looking for were good museums, and there were twenty taels of silver every year, and there were other gifts at four o'clock and five festivals. Later, didn't your uncle not be rated up, there was no good hall to ask him to do it, and the hall that he just quit this year only has ten taels of silver a year, but it is just food and accommodation. ”

"And how much do they spend a year?"
