"Now that you can see it, I won't hide it from you. Master, tell you the truth, I'm not an ordinary dog. ”

Seeing that Tian Qingqing was angry, the black girl knew that she hadn't rounded the lie, exposed her feet, and couldn't hide it anymore, so she shed tears and told her life experience:

"My mother, like you, is a spiritual, magical crossing dog. It didn't know how to offend the monster, it was calculated, and gave birth to twelve puppies in one birth, and crushed three to death at that time.

"There is a folk saying: A dog gives birth to twelve cubs, and it is already a murderous fetus. If you crush three more to death, the remaining nine will be ghost cubs. It is very unlucky for the dog owner's family. The way to get rid of it is to dispose of it all.

"The master at that time knew about this custom, and he did not dare to poison us. Even the and their puppies were sold in the market together.

"I sold a few episodes, but I didn't sell them. So, after feeding us until we were able to eat, they blindfolded us and took our brothers and sisters away one by one. It is said that it was thrown far away.

"I was blindfolded. It took a long time to throw me off.

"I had no relatives, I didn't know where I had come, I didn't know where I was going, so I stood on the side of the road and squeaked, trying to arouse the pity of passers-by and take me away.

"I didn't know that it was a bad fate, and I happened to run into a group of children passing by. One of the children threw a stump at me, and the other children followed suit. Mixed with bricks, it rained down on me.

"I ran desperately to the place where there was a house, and as a result, I was cut off at the straw stack, and after that, you saw it. After that, you put me in this space.

"Master, you have saved my life, and I will never forget your benefits for the rest of my life. I have nothing to repay but to be your servant honestly, to obey your command, and to do what I can for you.

"When you were intimidating a thief, I heard you say that you want him to suffer a little bit of flesh and skin. I'm afraid that if you hurt him, your blood will splash on you, so I'll remind you: when the ability acts on your own kind, you can't let the blood of your own kind splash on you. Otherwise, the ability is weakened or disappears. ”

"Thank you for reminding me." Tian Qingqing interjected: "If it weren't for your words, I might have done something out of the ordinary." ”

"That's what I'm supposed to do, master." The brunette was a little embarrassed.

Tian Qingqing: "Let me ask you again: Where have your brothers and sisters been thrown to?" Do you know? ”

The black girl shook her head: "When I came out, there were still five at home. We were sent out one by one, and no one knew who was where. ”

"Did you contact them, oh, your mother?"

Black girl: "I haven't been anywhere since I entered the space." I can't get out of the space on my own. ”

Tian Qingqing nodded, thinking: Maybe that's true. When she went to the county seat to sweep the noodle bags for the first time, she had already found that no matter how the little black dog ran, it couldn't run out of space. The wall of space is like an elastic band, which can go forward against it, but it cannot be broken.

"So, where did you hear these stories?"

"When we were naughty when we were young, my mother would feed us and tell stories while she didn't let us run around. Remembered. ”

"Tell fantasy stories too?"

"No, it's just a folk tale we can understand. Oh, you mean the supernatural, my mother probably told us. However, it was too small and hazy at that time. It was definitely taken from your brain waves. Maybe it's because my mother has a special ability, and we're sensitive to it, right? ”

"If I let you out now to find your mother and siblings, will you still be able to find you?"

may be because of the crossing, Tian Qingqing began to sympathize with the black girl's mother and son and a litter of dogs.

The brunette shook her head: "It can be very difficult. We dogs are not very different from you humans, and we don't take blood relations very seriously. If they live in groups, they recognize only the chief; If you follow someone, you only recognize the master. When siblings meet, they get annoyed and bite each other. ”

Tian Qingqing has a consensus on this: when some brothers and sisters got into a fight, people joked: "Like a nest dog, I don't care about family affection at all!" ”

"Master, please believe me, except for hiding the ghost fetus, everything else, I am absolutely loyal to you!"

"Why are you hiding this?"

Brunette: "I...... I'm afraid that after you know the truth, you will ...... Hate me! ”

Looking at the pious appearance of the black girl, Tian Qingqing suddenly felt that she had done something wrong and was suspicious!

Since ancient times, people have believed that cats are traitors and dogs are loyal subjects. Whoever eats well with the cat will follow whoever eats well; Dogs are different, no matter how poor the owner's family is, they will never abandon it, and they are absolutely loyal to their owners. There is a description of righteous dogs in "Liao Zhai".

Thinking like this, Tian Qingqing was relieved.

……………………………………………………

The next day, the wheat harvest began in full swing.

At this time, the fields were full of people harvesting wheat one by one. Basically, a piece is on a production team, and the scene is spectacular.

However, Tian Qingqing is still a child, and if he can't participate in the wheat cutting army, he won't have any stories to write.

However, wheat crossing is a major event in the countryside, and during this period, it is all manual labor, and a wheat day can make the peasants lose layers of skin on their backs. Compared with the modern combine harvester, dozens of acres of wheat can be harvested in one or two hours, which is very different. In order to let readers understand the labor style and wheat customs during the production team, the wheat process is now introduced:

In fact, "overwheating" is not only about cutting wheat, but also about many things. And as soon as the "small man" passed, the production team began to prepare. For example, buy some brooms, install them, and prepare large trucks and small vehicles. Tie up the frame of the lamai and the bar yard (re-roll the original yard).

At the same time, it is necessary to pay close attention to planting autumn grain crops and managing spring sowing crops, so this season is called the "three summers" busy season, which means that the three agricultural tasks of "summer harvest, summer planting, and summer management" must be carried out at the same time.

In life, which unit encounters a concentrated large activity or which family has a major event, people also commonly call this unit or this family is "over the wheat mile!" It can be seen that the position of "microphone" in people's minds!

The time of "passing the wheat" is very short, only about 10 days, and the agricultural proverb has the saying that "the autumn month, the wheat is ten days". Before and after "mango seeding", the weather is hot, and often blows "dry and hot wind", which makes the wheat that has been filled ripe quickly, and sometimes appears yesterday is still a piece of green, and today it is already full of golden eyes, so it is called "wheat ripe for a while".

Once the wheat reaches nine maturity, it must be harvested quickly, otherwise it will cause a reduction in yield, because the mature wheat is blown by the wind, it is easy to drop the grain, the dialect calls it "spare the ground", and the local has "ten ripe, nine percent harvest; Nine ripe, ten harvest".

In addition, hailstorms, heavy rains and even cloudy days can affect wheat production.

Wheat cutting is the main event, but also the technical work. In order to reduce the shedding of wheat grains due to dryness, wheat harvesting should be done early, and people hurried to the fields when the sky was hazy. The summer morning is still a little cool, "the wheat stalk does not fall, can not do without the cotton jacket", people grind the sickle and rub their palms for a while, and the coolness is also driven away.

The wheat harvesting team was the largest, and the strong men and women had to participate. First lined up in a row at the head of the field, and then every three people were divided into a group, each person had two ridges, and the "head sickle" person (the fastest and best mowing) was in the middle, responsible for beating the "important son" (also called "picking the trip"), and the other two people were on both sides, and after cutting the wheat, they were placed on the "important son" made by the "head sickle" person, and were responsible for taking turns to bundle the children.

The left hand holds the neck of the wheat under the ear, separates it with the right hand, twists it vigorously, and lays it flat on the ground along the ridge.

In fact, after the work is really done, the division of labor is not so strict, and whoever cuts to the front is responsible for beating the "important son", and people are often scrambling to take the lead.

The wheat was tied, and it was ready to be transported to the field.

Pulling wheat is also a technical job, and it is generally arranged for middle-aged and elderly men who are old and heavy-handed. Put the ox cart on the "wheat (bundles of wheat)" on the row, layer by layer outward to the high stack, must press the stubble, otherwise, the top and bottom are easy to overturn, and even cause casualties. If it is a "Liba head", the wheat cart in the row is often "bald" before it comes out of the ground.

There are five steps in beating wheat: stalling, rolling, turning, rolling twice, and starting. This process also needs to be completed by many people, especially the stall, turnover, and start of the work is very large, and there will be a lot of delay in the time if there are few people, but the work is not very tiring, so the production team will send some semi-laborers (the elderly, students, etc.) to work in the field.

When the stall or the field is turned over, people take the pole, line up, and operate one by one, so that the field is flat, easy to dry, and easy to roll.

The mill was to pull the mill with livestock, round by round, over and over again, rolling all over the corner of the wheat mill, squeezing as many grains out of the ears as possible.

The beginning is to pick up the wheat straw with a stick and stack it into a stack, leaving the wheat grains. The technique is to keep shaking the sticks in the hand, leaving as many wheat grains as possible to achieve the return of the grains to the warehouse.

But no matter how much it shakes, it is inevitable that some wheat grains will be taken away and piled up in the wheat straw stack. In order to clear out this part of the wheat grains, after all the wheat has been beaten, the wheat straw must be "scooped" -- beaten twice.

In fact, all the wheat straw was spread out on both sides of the field, so that most of the wheat grains were found.

There are two processes for the remaining "fish that have slipped through the net": "passing through the branch" and "passing through the foil".

To put it bluntly, "passing the branches" is to shake the wheat straw with the branches again to let the wheat grains fall out.

The purpose of "passing the foil" is the same as that of the foil, which is nothing more than to let the wheat straw go through the straw foil and leak the wheat grains.

After the fight, the wheat kernels are still mixed with the wheat bran, and they must be separated before they can be stored, which requires the process of "raising the field". (To be continued) RS
