Chapter 62: Harvesting Rice

At less than six o'clock in the morning, when the sky was still a little dark, Yunyi woke up from his sleep.

Rubbing his eyes, Yun Yi got dressed and got up, and as soon as he pushed open the door of the house, a chill rushed to his face, which made Yun Yi, who was still a little sleepy, suddenly feel a lot more energetic.

Walking to the grove outside the courtyard, the woods were quiet, and the fog from last night made the leaves and bushes all over the crystal dewdrops, and every drop was like a pearl, crystal clear.

Suddenly, several birds flew out of the nest, and the sound of the fluttering of their wings woke up the other sleeping birds, and they all flew out of the nest and chirped in the woods, which immediately made the whole forest lively.

With the chirping of birds, a fiery red sun rises on the top of the mountain in the east, shining a thousand rays of light on the earth, awakening the whole land from its slumber.

When Yunyi returned to the small courtyard, smoke was wafting from every household in the village, and the ubiquitous sound of chickens and dogs barking throughout the village made the village seem so vibrant.

After breakfast, every household in Qingyunshan Village brought sickles, kettles, threshing machines, plastic sheets and other things to the terraced fields outside the village to prepare for harvesting rice.

Yunyi took more than 20 colleagues, holding sickles, kettles and other things in their hands, and walked along the mountain path to the terraced fields of the eldest girl's house.

Standing on the path that crosses the mountain and looks down at the lower part of the mountain, the scenery of the whole Qingyun Mountain is very beautiful, and the terraced fields are like golden belts, layer by layer, one by one on the remaining veins of Qingyun Mountain; A gust of wind blew, and the golden rice paddy rose and fell slightly, like a golden ocean.

When I walked to the terraced fields of the eldest girl's house, a large area had been harvested on the ground, covered with plastic sheeting, and several threshing machines were set up on the side.

"Big brother, wait a minute, you will take off Liao on this plastic sheet, I will cut the rice, and the big girl will pick it here, so you don't need to cut it!" When the eldest girl's father saw Yunyi and everyone coming, he hurriedly dropped the sickle in his hand, and walked to Yunyi's side with a smile.

"No need big brother, are you afraid that we will cut ourselves?" Yun Yi looked at the eldest girl's father with a smile, knowing that he was afraid that he would not cut himself with a sickle, and looked at the people behind him, Yun Yi said: "If you want to experience rice cutting later, the male compatriots will come over to receive the sickle, and the female colleagues will be responsible for carrying and threshing." ”

"How can this be done, big brother, if the guests accidentally cut themselves, how bad it would be!" Hearing that Yun Yi didn't care about letting the tourists follow him to cut the rice, the eldest girl's father had a cramped and uneasy expression on his face, he was afraid that these people would hurt him.

Chen Zhiming smiled slightly, looked at the uneasy expression on the eldest girl's father's face and said, "Big brother, you don't have to worry, we are all adults and will protect ourselves, just wait and tell us the essentials of the action." ”

"Yes, big brother, we are not three-year-olds, although the speed of cutting rice can't catch up with you old crops, but at least we're a helper, aren't we?" Wang Peng also looked at the eldest girl's father with a smile and said.

Seeing that so many people were asking to cut the rice, the eldest girl's father was helpless, and after everyone took the sickle, he took them to the rice that had not yet been harvested and explained.

Cutting rice, if it is dried in the water field, is the same action as cutting wheat.

The father of the eldest girl held the sickle in his right hand, with his left leg in front and his right leg behind, and after receiving a large handful of rice with his hands on the left and right, the sickle in his right hand gently pulled five centimeters above the root of the rice, and with a crisp 'creak', a large wisp of rice was cut.

"The rice is harvested in time like this, everyone must be careful when harvesting, don't cut the leg, otherwise the sickle will go down so quickly, it will be a long wound!" The eldest girl's father sat and demonstrated, and Yunyi sat on the side to explain.

Yunyi's family is a fishing village, and there are also some fields, although Binhai City is developing rapidly, but Yunyi still harvested wheat when he was a child, which is similar to harvesting rice.

After telling everyone, Yun Yi took a sickle by himself, identified two rows of rice and cut them all the way.

At the beginning, the eldest girl's father was in front of Yunyi, and with a pair of fan-like hands, a large handful of rice was gathered together, and then his right hand gently held the sickle and pulled, and the rice was harvested, lying neatly on the ground in rows.

Yun Yi thought that the harvesting action was very fast, but he was soon pulled down by the eldest girl's father far away, and Yun Yi's waist was sore, but he still couldn't keep up with the eldest girl's father, which made Yun Yi sigh: I still can't catch up with the professional crop handle.......

"Yunyi, your kid cuts rice so fast, one person can cut faster than the three of us!" Yun Yi was sighing, who knew that Wang Peng's voice came from behind the road, Yun Yi turned around and looked back, and found that the speed of the dozen or so colleagues behind him was slower than his own, allowing him to fall three times the distance.

"Hehe, brother, I'm also from the countryside, so it's not unusual to be able to cut rice!" Looking at the people who were even worse than himself, Yun Yi finally found out proudly that he was quite powerful.

Holding a sickle in his hand, Chen Zhiming straightened his waist slightly and soothed his waist, watching the people in the terraced fields waving their sickles to harvest rice, and then looking at the layers of terraced fields below, the golden rice was like an ocean, and he couldn't help but have a little yearning for rural life in his heart.

Taking out the camera he carried with him, Chen Zhiming chose a few angles, and after taking pictures of the golden rice fields and the people harvesting the rice, he continued to devote himself to the work of harvesting the rice.

The young men in front were cutting the rice, and the girls and Li Ya in the back were guided by the eldest girl's mother, and bundled the rice one by one, and then jumped to the plastic sheet with the burden.

With the skillful crop handling of the big girl's father, coupled with the freshness of a group of young people to harvest rice, by the time it was almost time for lunch, four acres of terraced fields of five acres had been cut, and only one acre of land was left unfinished.

After the harvest, the rice was piled up close to the plastic sheet by several women comrades, and the bundles of very strong rice bundles were piled up like a hill, and the threshing of the big girl on the plastic sheet was as much as 300 catties!

"Descendants, let's go home and eat, let's eat well at noon!" The eldest girl's father happily looked at the piles of rice piled up into a small hill, if in the past, his family would have been busy for at least four days to finish cutting and threshing these rice, but at the speed of this morning, it will be able to cut all the rice without dark today, which is really fast enough!

Of course, if you don't look at the nearly thirty people in the big girl's field, this speed is indeed exaggerated; However, under normal circumstances, a strong laborer can harvest seven points of land in a morning, this speed is not flattering.

When I went home, the eldest girl's father casually put the sickle or something in the field, and Wang Peng, who was about to take the sickle back in his hand, saw it and couldn't help but say: "Big brother, you put this tool here, aren't you afraid that someone will take it?" ”

"Hehe, it doesn't matter, we haven't lost anything in Qingyun Mountain Village for decades, even if there is a loss of something, it's from another village." The eldest girl's father looked at Wang Peng with a smile, pointed to the sickle in his hand and said, "In the future, the sickle is still here, and it won't be lost." ”

"Hehe, the security environment here is very good...."Wang Peng put the sickle in his hand on the ground, followed behind the eldest girl's father, he couldn't help but sigh in his heart: Although poor and poor, the people in this mountain village are very simple......

Lunch was very rich, and about 30 people made three tables, and each table had a small pot of chicken and mushrooms stewed.

The chickens are the vegetable pheasants that Yun Yi grabbed from the vegetable field, and these pheasants that have eaten the insects of the space spring water in the vegetable field taste better than the pheasants on the ordinary mountains.

The mushrooms are picked by the big girl from the mountains, although they are not produced by Yunyi Space, but under the promotion of the pheasant taste, the taste is still very delicious and mellow, so that everyone eats is full of oil, and several girls are screaming that their stomachs hurt.

After eating and resting for a long time, everyone took a lunch break until more than two o'clock at noon, and after eating the chilled watermelon from Yun Yi's house, everyone walked to the ground refreshed.

As we walked into the fields, there were already people busy harvesting rice in the terraces on both sides of the road, and looking at the sweat on their faces and soaked clothes, it was obvious that they had been busy in the fields for at least a long time.

"Miao Xuan, the rice in your field is almost finished, so many people are helping your family cut rice!" When passing by the terraced fields of Miao Dahu's house, Miao Dahu wiped the sweat on his face, sat on the ground and looked at the eldest girl's father enviously and said hello.
