Chapter 6: Quyuan Plow

Xi Duyun's eyes lit up as he stared at the Qu Yuan plough that appeared after clicking on the red envelope, how could it be a Qu Yuan plow!

Xi spent her childhood in the 21st century in the countryside, her parents went to work in the city, and the elderly in the family still preserved the farming methods, and grew up watching her grandparents plow the fields with curved plows.

This plough shape is simple, light and flexible to use, and can save a lot of manpower and livestock.

Originally, she was worried about the cultivation of 20 acres of land, but now with this curved plow, it can greatly increase the efficiency of her work, and it is not difficult to come to the 20 acres of land to be cultivated.

Xi Duyun put away the Quyuan plow, and went back to the room to coax Xi Duyu to sleep. Xi Duyu, this girl is sullen during the day, and she talks surprisingly much before going to bed, as if she is a hundred thousand whys, Xi Duyun is so good at talking before she coaxes her to sleep.

Early the next morning, Xi Duyun got up early in the morning and drove the old cow rented from the villagers' houses with broken silver towards his field.

Early in the morning, there was still water vapor on the ridge that had not been dissipated last night, and it was hazy and distant from afar, and Xi Duyun saw a person standing on the ridge from afar, and when he got closer, it was Qi Lichen.

"When did Qi Daju buy a field here?" Xi Duyun stared at Qi Lichen with question marks on his head.

Qi Lichen was rescued by her parents and returned to Nancun, he has lived a hard life over the years, and he has no extra money, and naturally there is no land in the village.

Qi Lichen glanced at the heavily armed Xi Duyun with a faint expression, rolled up his sleeves and trouser legs, and explained: "Xiaoyu can't help yet, the cultivation of twenty acres of land is difficult for you, I have nothing to do, so I simply come to help." ”

After this period of getting along, Rao is suspicion in Xi Duiyun's heart has not dissipated, but Qi Lichen is also a little relieved.

Everyone is more or less secretive, Xi Duyun herself is also, what is hidden behind Qi Lichen, as long as she is not implicated, what is she going to dig for, at least, so far I think this person is not bad.

She didn't overestimate her ability too much, so she simply stopped shirking, tilted her head towards Qi Lichen and teased with a light smile: "Since this is the case, I will bother Qi Daju who does not touch the spring water with his fingers......"

Xi Duyun is really a bad lover, and deliberately lengthens the tone in the second half of the sentence, pretending to be flattering.

Xu is strange expression was too funny, Qi Lichen chuckled, and knocked his hand on Xi Duyun's forehead lightly: "Okay, plow the field quickly, otherwise you won't be able to finish plowing it in a month." ”

Qi Lichen turned his back and walked down the mud field, I don't know if he didn't know Xi Duyun well enough, he always felt that Xi Duyun had changed a lot.

It's weird, it's a little naughty, it's not as dull as it used to be, but it's good...... It's good to be lively.

Xi Duyun pushed Qu Yuan to plow down the field and stepped on the wet. On the soft muddy floor, Twilight got goosebumps.

Despite the tight handkerchief cover, Xi Duyun's character still strangely seems to be forcibly escorted to a sea of swords.

Looking at the black and constantly tumbling soil, the originally light and flexible curved plow seemed to be as heavy as thousands of catties in her hands, and drove extremely slowly.

Qi Lichen, who was still fiddling with farm tools on the side, shook his head and chuckled when he looked at the thin figure with disgust but had to continue.

Qi Lichen hurriedly caught up and stopped Xi Duyun's Ling Chi-like move: "It's better for me to come, if the whole village goes down at your speed, it is estimated that they will only starve to death in the coming year." ”

After that, he took over Qu Yuan's plough to take over Xi Duyun's work and let her sit on the edge of the ridge.

Xi Duyun didn't refute either, she simply let go, and let someone with a habit of cleanliness go to the field to do this kind of farm work facing the loess with her back to the sky, which was simply a kind of torture, and it was like Ling Chi's way to be happy.

Xi Duyun sat on the ridge with a layer of straw, looked at Qi Lichen's obviously unfamiliar movements, and pondered for a moment.

Speaking of Qi Lichen's origin, it is bizarre and a little old-fashioned. The original owner's father picked him up on the side of the road, if he was really an honest farmer, how could he not be familiar with farm work?

Not only is his movements clumsy, but he can stand out from the squires in terms of bearing, his identity must not be simple, but as a lifter, he surrendered his identity to help himself do such farm work.

Xi Duyun's suspicions became deeper and deeper, but he still couldn't figure it out, so he simply didn't care about it.

Seeing that he was struggling to plough the land, he pushed the Quyuan plow over and stuffed the Quyuan plow into Qi Lichen's hand: "Use this lighter." ”

Qi Lichen took the Quyuan plow stuffed by Xi Duyun, and looked up and down at this strange-shaped farm tool that he had never seen before, with a blank expression.

Fortunately, after driving two laps in the way Xi Duyun said, he got started, and at the same time was shocked by the flexibility and convenience of the curved plow.

Qi Lichen has been in the village for many years, although he has not been to the field a few times, but he has seen everything in the farm.

He has never seen this farm tool, there is such a farm tool in the world, simple and light, not to mention compared with ordinary farm tools, it is twice the result with half the effort.

"How did you get this thing?" Qi Lichen was so excited that his voice even had a slight trill, and his deep eyes burst out with a scorching light.

Xi Duyun was stunned for a moment, she saw that Qi Lichen was ploughing the fields, so she stuffed things over with a hot head, not considering how rare and rare new farming tools were in the eyes of them in an agrarian society.

Precisely because it is rare, it is a hassle to explain the source. Now, I can only make up a random reason to prevaricate the past.

"This ...... It's unbelievable, my dad occasionally picked up an ancient book a few years ago, looking at the strange pattern on it, he is a carpenter, he likes to toss these the most, so he made it, I didn't expect it to be of such a great use. ”

When it comes to lying without a red face and a heartbeat, Xi Duyun thinks that few people can compare to her, just imagine that when she was selling goods on the street part-time, her kung fu of opening her mouth to tell nonsense is not false.

"What about the ancient books, where are the ancient books now?" Hearing Xi Duyun's explanation, Qi Lichen's eyes suddenly lit up, he was too anxious to think about the mistakes in Xi Duyun's words, and hurriedly asked about the whereabouts of the ancient book.

If Qu Yuan Plough really came from an ancient book, the ancient book may have recorded more unexpected things, which may have been of great use to his plan.

"Ancient... A few years ago, there was a fire in the house, and I haven't seen my father take out the ancient books since, maybe it will disappear with the fire......" Xi Duyun almost bit his tongue under Qi Lichen's fiery gaze.

There's no way, facing a pair of deep eyes, after one more look, I feel like I'm going to sink, it's really hard to sit still, it's impossible to confess to Qi Lichen that Qu Yuanli fell out of thin air after she opened the red envelope, right?

As soon as these words came out, the hope in Qi Lichen's eyes faded at a speed visible to the naked eye, and the corners of his mouth hooked a bitter smile with difficulty: "In this way, maybe my life should be like this......"

Looking at Qi Lichen's disappointed expression, Xi Duyun felt a little guilty in his heart for no reason, if Qi Lichen knew that the ancient books he was thinking about were just random tears out by her in order to fulfill the lie, I am afraid that he would be even more disappointed.

Xi Duyun patted Qi Lichen's shoulder and comforted: "It's okay, the ancient books are gone, if you want to, we will do it again according to the Quyuan plow." ”

The shape of the curved plough is simple, it is not difficult to make, and it is not difficult to mass production. Xi Duyun's words woke Qi Lichen up, as if she had thought of something, and put her face on Xi Duyun's shoulder with an extremely serious face, forcing her to raise her head and look at herself.

"The matter of the qu yuan plough is very important, you must remember to use it carefully, so as not to cause unnecessary trouble if others pay too much attention to it."

Xu is face was too cautious, causing Xi Duyun to have no time to think about it, just nodded stunned.

After telling Qi Lichen, he pushed Qu Yuan plough and went to the field with a heavy heart, Xi Duyun couldn't bear to let him contract all the work alone, and Qi Lichen took turns driving Qu Yuan plow to reclaim the fields.

It's just that from time to time, Xi Duyun would go to the river with a distorted face and wash the mud on his body before continuing to work.

After the cycle, such an awkward and disgusted appearance made Qi Lichen, who has always had a calm temperament, cry and laugh again and again.

"If I didn't know you well, which family's daughter would I be happy with, usually the croppers can be fed and clothed, how can you be so exquisite."

Regarding Qi Lichen's ridicule, Xi Duyun did not answer positively every time he went over with a haha.

By the end of the evening, most of the fields that had no edge had been cleared.

Someone came to look for Qi Lichen and left for something, so Xi Duyun simply collected his things and went home to prepare for cooking.

For a few days, Xi Duyun took advantage of the time when everyone was doing other work to go to the fields to cultivate, and it didn't take much effort, and the twenty acres of fields had been almost reclaimed.

After some operation, I only saw the people in the village secretly chattering, and there were inevitably people who were ready to make a move to see the jokes.

After all, in their opinion, Xi Duyun is just a little girl, and it is not easy to reclaim twenty acres of land, but she must have taken some unsightly "doorway".

No, when Xi Duyun hurried to return the old cow rented from Aunt Liu's house with broken silver, it attracted the attention of many people.

Next to Aunt Liu's house is an ownerless open space, where most of the people in the village will spread their buds to dry their buds.

Today is the same, the women in the village are gossiping while drying buds, and they stop talking when they see Xi Duyun coming, but there is always one in the group who is unwilling to shut up.

"Yun girl, these twenty acres of land are not simple jobs, how can you do it faster than the old man?"
