The days flew by, and as the days approached July, the earth was like an oven burned on a fire, so hot that people wanted to soak in water all day.

The sun hung high in the sky, shining hot, and it was not yet noon, and there was no one walking around outside Da'ao Village, for fear of being smoky from the heat.

Since the beginning of summer, as the weather is getting hotter and hotter, there are many people who suffer from heat stroke, and two or three places in the village with big banyan trees have become a good place for people to talk and enjoy the coolness.

Su Liu set up a shed at the brow bone, squinting at the hot sun, the dazzling golden light making her eyes almost narrow into a slit.

Back in the house, Su Liu couldn't help but pour two sips of herbal tea, and said worriedly: "It's too hot this day, if it goes on like this, it is estimated that the grain in the field will suffer." "But no, it is said that after this Dragon Boat Festival, there is a lot of rain, but this year is evil, this June 10 to now, this has not rained for almost a month." Chen also frowned.

Su Liu pursed her lips and looked outside, even though there was an ice basin in their house, the heat wave outside still rushed into the house, making people feel unbearable heat. "It's hot, it's hot, mother, get me some ice water." Su Xiao rushed in with a gust of wind, and didn't bother to say hello to the two of them, so he rushed directly to the shelf where the ice basin was placed, hugged the ice basin, and sighed: "Mother, this is alive." ”

She showed a comfortable expression without any image, Chen and Su Liu looked funny and angry, and said: "Come here, it's so hot outside, you come back and hold this ice basin, and if you carefully mix the hot and cold, it will be hot and cold." "Mother, I'll hug it again, it's really hot outside." Su Xiao held the ice basin and refused to let go, and said to Su Liu: "This hot day, sister, do we still want to go to the county seat?" ”

Without waiting for Su Liu to reply, Chen said: "Go, why don't you go, your sister and Lu are big things, so naturally they will go." ”

A few days later, it will be the 14th of July, and it will also be Su Liu and Lu, and the family will say that they will hold a ceremony in the county town to celebrate Su Liu's adulthood, and they have also invited Mrs. Song and Cao Mingzhu to be the guests.

Su Xiao stuck out his tongue and said, "Didn't I just ask?" ”

Su Liu said with a smile: "Actually, it's the same everywhere, it's a birthday, and there's no need to make such a big scene." "No, it won't." Chen said very insistently: "In the past, our family didn't have that condition, maybe my mother would comb your hair, but now we don't lack anything, and the daughter's family and Lu are big things, so this gift can't be wasted." "Sister, just listen to her, my mother wants to show people that you are a good girl!" Su Xiao grinned.

Chen smacked her, walked over and pulled her away from the ice basin, pinched her tender skin that could drip water, and said, "In the future, when you become an adult, my mother will also give you a big deal and show you." ”

Su Xiao's face was slightly red and said, "I'm still far from Jilu!" "It's not far away, it's thirteen, if there is a suitable one, it's time to watch." Chan meant something.

This is to kiss Su Xin, Su Liu pursed his lips and chuckled, Su Xiao blushed and said loudly: "Mother, don't mess around, my husband I want to find a happy one myself." "What a shameless girl, but she said that she was looking for a husband." Chan deliberately teased her. "Mother!" Su Xiao was coquettish, and didn't forget to pull Su Liu and said: "Sister, you quickly make me the master, lest my mother give me some mandarin duck scores." "Don't worry, our mother is a person who loves her daughter, and she will never force you to marry someone who is not happy." Su Liu shook his head and said. "That's pretty much it." Su Xiao raised her chin proudly.

Chen took the opportunity to ask what she wanted to find, Su Xiao was embarrassed at first, and then he snapped his fingers and said what he wanted.

is handsome, knowledgeable, and can be bullied by her, and can't scold her, you can only love her...... "Even our brother Ye can't compare, it's definitely unacceptable." Su Xiao shrugged his nose and said.

Su Liu missed a beat in her heart when she heard this, blinked, and looked over seriously, only to see that her eyebrows were open and her eyes were clear, and she couldn't help but blame herself for being too careful. "Sister, why do you look at people like this? It makes people's hearts hairy. Su Xiao patted his heart and said angrily.

Su Liu smiled and said, "It's nothing, I'm wondering if I should make two ice bowls to eat in this hot weather." ”

Su Xiao's eyes lit up, and she hurriedly jumped over and hugged her hand and said, "Ice bowl, I want to eat." ”

The ice bowl is Su Liu's new masterpiece, the ice is crushed, put on various nuts or boiled beans, and poured with honey, sweet, iced, especially delicious. "I can't eat more, and I feel a stomachache if I am careful." Chan reminded him.

Su Xiao stuck out his tongue, pulled Su Liu and went to the kitchen, and specially built an ice cellar when building the house, so they saved a lot of ice cubes last winter, and now they can use it in summer.

At the end of the day, Su Liu put on the veil, she wanted to go out to take a look, the weather was so abnormal, it looked like the harvest was about to be harvested, and if it didn't rain for a month, the crops would die.

Talking to Chen, Su Liu first went to his own field to take a look, fifteen acres of pepper tomatoes, growing very well, the two long-term workers are busy in the field, fortunately Su Liu dug the river canal first, and brought the river water over, so that the two of them would not go far to carry water for watering.

But Rao is like this, both of them are sweating, their faces are tanned and shining, and they see that the crops are cooked very well, and they know that they are not lazy.

Su Liu has never been a harsh master, and the weather is really hot, so he promised the two of them to wait for the stubble of peppers to be collected, and give the two of them twice the monthly money as a reward.

The master is generous, and this is the natural thing to do more carefully, and both of them are sincere, I heard that the processing money is grateful, and I expressed my heartfelt heart again and again.

When Su Liu walked away, Pan Yucheng sighed: "The eldest girl's heart is really kind, no wonder she has the blue eyes of the general." "It's a blessing for our brothers to meet such a kind owner as the eldest girl, hurry up and pour these peppers, you can collect them now, but you can't let the sun disappear this day." Ye Ping smiled honestly and said, "If you do it this year, you will be able to ask for a handsome daughter-in-law." ”

Pan Yucheng blushed, scratched his head, and said, "Brother Ye, you said that on this day, why is it so hot, it wasn't so hot last year." ”

The two of them talked as they started working again.

Su Liu walked all the way along his field, all along the way were fields, although it was almost the end of the hour, but the sun was already hot, and some villagers were carrying water in the field to irrigate the fields.

Su Liu noticed that the fields were very dry and cracked, and the rice that had already been harvested and was about to be harvested was wilting due to lack of water.

Su Liu no longer has common sense, and he also knows that the rice field has a dry field, even if there is no water for a week or two, it will not die, especially the stubble in autumn, when the harvest is dry, and the rice is also full, it is not like now.

Now this wilting is clearly a serious shortage of water.

Su Liu's brows furrowed, looking at the cracked mud field, his heart twitched.

If you see that the harvest is coming, if there is a great drought, it will not be good. "Hey, isn't this a big girl? Why is this fierce sun coming out and shaking? What is this for? Just as Su Liu was thinking, a voice suddenly sounded behind him.

Su Liu stood up and looked over, it was a villager in the village, and it seemed that he was also from the Su family, so Su Liu smiled and said, "Uncle, where are you calling?" "Go to the fields and put water in the fields." Uncle Su said: "It's a hot day, the ground is dry, and if you don't look at it for a while, it will be dry." "I look at this day and it's unusually hot, I haven't been so hot in years, right?" Su Liu approached and frowned. "There have been twelve years, just one round, and it rained for two whole months that year, and there was a great drought, and the people who died of heat were much older." Uncle Su put down the hoe he was carrying, took out dry tobacco from his waist, rolled it up and lit it, and said, "At that time, the crops died a lot, and how many people didn't have enough to eat. ”

Su Liu's brows furrowed deeper and deeper, and he asked hesitantly: "Uncle, then according to you, will there be a big drought this year?" ”

Uncle Su's hand shook, his face changed, and he said, "No, right?" "But, it's been a long time since it's rained, and you see the land is bursting with dryness." Su Liu pointed to the field at his feet.

Uncle Su's face became more and more ugly, and his voice trembled slightly: "No, it looks like the harvest is going to be harvested, but there can't be a big drought." ”

Su Liu saw that he was frightened, and the cigarette he was holding trembled and wanted to fall, so he smiled and said, "You always say no, I don't understand anything, I just think it's unusual to talk about this hot day." "You can't talk nonsense, it will offend the rain god." Uncle Su reprimanded nervously and softly.

Su Liu smiled, said that you are busy, and walked to the village, behind him, Uncle Su was still muttering: "There will be a big drought, maybe it will rain tomorrow, and there will be no big drought." ”

Su Liu glanced at the sky through the curtain, the clear blue sky was full of white clouds, how could there be any signs of rain?

Returning to the village with anxiety, he heard a fierce quarrel as he passed by the ancient well shared by the village head.

Su Liu listened for a while, but it was the two of them who were rectified because of the fetching of water, and couldn't help frowning, there are often people in the village who quarrel, and she is not surprised, so she raised her feet and went home, but after only two steps, her footsteps stopped again. "You fetch water to bathe the pigs, and I fetch to cook and drink, who is important? We all know that there is less water in this well, and you are still wasting it, is there a selfish person like you? Also bathe the pigs, I phew! Your pig is a golden pig, more expensive than us! ”

What kind of pig bathes people drink water, Su Liuke doesn't care, what she cares about is that there is less water in the well.

In these years, it is not easy to dig a well, this ancient well is also the only public well in the village, many people who do not have a well at home come here to pick up water to drink, and now the water in the well is not a good phenomenon. Su Liu's brows furrowed, and he walked over without thinking about it.

Yan is still in a hurry, and there is still a chapter at about half past twelve~
