Chapter 698: Autumn

Add more, ask for pink.

Those daughters-in-law on Zhuangzi, including Luo Wang's family, did not have a good attitude towards Luo. In front of Lian Man'er and them, they can still maintain their politeness on the surface. But that defensiveness and disdain can still be seen. As for carrying them behind their backs, what those daughters-in-law are like to Luo will never be better than when they are in front of them.

Lian Man'er's family has such a big Zhuangzi in Luojia Village, and Luo's family will definitely not know about it. Lian Man'er can imagine how many people outside view Luo and the Luo family.

"So you can't arrange for Brother Erlang to work in Zhuangzi." Lian Man'er smiled.

"yes, no." Lian Shouxin nodded.

Although the family had no good impression of the Luo family and Luo Du at this time, they did not delay in promising to find a job for Erlang. Don't look at others, but also look at Erlang and Erniuniu. On the same day, Wulang asked someone to bring a letter to the county, and soon, the shopkeeper Jiang found a job for Erlang. It is an oil extraction workshop just outside the county town of Jinyang County.

It's not an easy job, but it doesn't require skills and it pays a lot. Erlang needs to walk nearly ten miles to work every day, but this is not a matter for the farmer.

Erlang and Luo came over to thank him, Erlang is not good at words, Luo is stronger than Erlang, but he can't say too many tricks, just a few words over and over again.

"I found this place for you, if you can't do it, whether you can do it for a long time depends on yourself." Lian Shouxin said to Erlang, "Just like you used to do in the mountains, you have to rely on your own skills." ”

"Fourth uncle, I know. I'm sure I won't disgrace you. Jiro said gratefully.

A job that can earn money for activities and subsidize the family is something that can not be found by the family.

Luo brought two more chickens, and the Zhang family saw the situation in her house, so she naturally refused to ask for it

"We don't lack this, you kid is always like this, but it seems to be a foreigner." Zhang's to Luo Dao.

"Fourth aunt, we know that you don't lack anything. But this is also a little bit of our heart. If you don't accept it, I really can't get over it. Luo said. She was still the same as she had been dressed that day, and the creases were very noticeable. Obviously, Luo is the only one who wears the clothes that come out to meet guests. However, Erlang is wearing a new trouser gown with a big green cloth today, and even the shoes and socks are new.

"Then, then I'll take it." Seeing that Luo insisted on keeping these two chickens, Zhang thought about it and said, "I'll give it to you again, your father and mother are not in good health, go back and stew them to make up for their body." ・・・・・・ and Erlang, I will work outside in the future, I heard that the work is not easy, you have to be careful about the food and clothing. ”

"Fourth aunt, don't worry, the two of us, I can do everything first. I know that he will be a person who works outside in the future, and this food and clothing will definitely not be a loss to him. Luo said busily.

On the same day, Lian Shouxin sent a guy to accompany Erlang to the oil extraction workshop, and then specially asked people to inquire, knowing that Erlang was doing a good job in the oil mill, so he was relieved.

The days flew by, and in a blink of an eye, it was time for the autumn harvest. The busier the year, the more joyful it is. Grape picking and wine making are still arranged to the end, with sweet potatoes being the first to be packed, then peanuts, corn, sorghum, millet and soybeans being harvested.

This year, my family's fields have doubled, and naturally I am busier than usual. In addition to their own long-term workers, Lian Man'er's family hired some short-term workers. Even Xiao Qi put down the books temporarily, and he either followed Lian Shouxin or Wulang all day long, and also learned to take care of things inside and out. Although Zhang, Lian Zhi'er and Lian Man'er don't have to work in the fields, they are not idle at home every day. In addition to taking care of everyone's meals, they also have to watch the threshing floor and wash and dry the vegetables in their spare time.

Although busy and tired, everyone was extremely happy and satisfied when they saw a cart full of grains returning home, a basket of dried sweet potatoes and all kinds of dried vegetables.

On the day of the autumn harvest, the happiest time for the family is after dinner. After eating and drinking, the family loves to gather in the courtyard to enjoy the coolness. At this time, most of them will eat some melons and fruits picked in the field, and Lian Man'er and Xiao Qi will get together to summarize the day's harvest and calculate the approximate income. The numbers accumulate day by day, golden and heavy. The hearts of the family were almost covered with a layer of golden light, not the golden light of gold, but the warm, full of life and more satisfying golden light of the full grain.

On this day, the family had dinner and still enjoyed the shade in the courtyard as usual. But they had just sat down for a short time when the wind picked up, and the sky quickly became cloudy.

"It's not good, it's going to rain." Lian Shouxin got up, looked at the sky, and said.

The first few days were all sunny, but since this morning, the weather has been cloudy and sunny, but the next day has completely cleared, and everyone thought it was okay. Unexpectedly, in the evening, the whole day was overcast, and it was about to rain. And, looking at the dark clouds spreading out, it is clear that this rain will not be light.

When it comes to spring planting, what the farmers are most looking forward to is a rain. But at the time of the autumn harvest, a heavy rain was the most annoying to the villagers.

Lian Shouxin watched the dark clouds accumulate more and more, and the moisture in the air became heavier and heavier, he didn't dare to delay for a moment, and immediately went to cross the courtyard. Gorou and Xiaoqi also followed, and the three of them gathered the long-term workers, and were busy collecting the grain from the threshing floor into the house, and if they couldn't get into the house, they covered it tightly with a covering such as oilcloth or straw curtains.

Zhang was also busy Zhang Luo put away all the dried vegetables that were drying, and Lian Zhi'er and Lian Man'er were also busy packing up with Xiaoxi and Xiaoqing.

The family will pack up everything, and the bean-sized raindrops will fall from the sky, and soon, the raindrops will be connected into threads and intertwined into a fine rain curtain.

An autumn rain and a cold, that night, Lian Zhi'er and Lian Man'er sisters lay on the kang and covered them with thin quilts. Fortunately, the family is a diligent person, and when the weather is good, they took out all the bedding to be used in autumn and winter to dry.

Lying in the warm quilt that exudes the fresh smell of sunlight, listening to the sound of rain outside the window, Lian Man'er soon fell asleep. However, on this night, many farmers could not sleep.

This rain was heavier than even Shouxin expected, and it rained until noon the next day, and the day gradually cleared up.
