During this time, the Lin family was busy, there was not so much farm work to do at this time, and the big seedlings had to wait for a few days.

Wu said, "Everyone is tired these days, let's take a good rest, and then it's time to plant seedlings, it's more busy, this year is really tiring." ”

Siqi smiled, "Grandma, it doesn't matter if we're tired, as long as this year's harvest is good, it's worth it." ”

Wu wanted Siqi and his children to rest at home, but now that the silkworm seeds have hatched, they have to take care of it, and then they have to pick mulberry leaves, and there are a lot of things.

Wu is very tired when she thinks about it, and she doesn't know where these children in their family get so much energy, she feels like she does a lot of things every day, and she is so tired that she can't breathe, and she rests for a night, and she is still full of energy, which is really good or bad, she is afraid that these children will be tired.

At this time, we just came back from work outside, everyone was sitting in the yard to rest, and we were going to do other work for a while, Wu said with a smile, "Our family is really smart, this time planting crops, he has been coming up with ideas on the side, I can't figure it out." ”

Siqi went to the silkworm room, she heard this, but she didn't respond, Lin Changyuan smiled, "Mother, this child is clever when he is young, and he loves to ask me if he doesn't understand anything, that is, he told her casually, but I didn't expect her to remember it in her heart." ”

Lin Changfu said on the side, "It's a pity, her son is a girl, if it's a boy, send it to the school to study, maybe the child is better than the fifth child." ”

Si Qi listened inside and smiled, who said that the girl's family couldn't have a chance? Wait and see, she will have a chance in the future.

The successive farm work made everyone too late to shout tired, and before they had a good rest, they began to plant big seedlings again, which could not be delayed, and when the good time passed, they had to delay the growth of crops, and the harvest would be worse, and they did not dare to take this risk.

At this time, the silkworms raised at home have also reached the time when they can eat mulberry leaves the most, and several children have to herd sheep and feed silkworms every day, and they are very busy, all the things in the family are handed over to Wanrong and Siyao, and the other children are busy with things outside.

After working for a few days, he really couldn't do it, and as soon as he discussed with his sons, he decided to go to the town and ask a few long-term workers to come back to help with the work.

The next day, Lin Dezheng went to the town to bring people back, these people are specially engaged in these jobs, and whoever wants to use people will go to the town to find them, and they are all waiting there.

Usually it is cheaper, but in the busy farming season, the price is slightly more expensive, and now at this time, a person has to give 60 yuan a day.

Lin Changyuan found a total of four people to come back, so that the work at home could be done faster, that is, to give some wages.

Lin Changgui is still going to send a fish back to the town every other day, Cuixian Lou's business is doing very well, the shopkeeper is a reliable one, and he has never given less silver, so although the family is busy, this business still continues.

The money earned from selling fish is almost the same as the money for long-term jobs, so when you think about it, you can feel a little more comfortable, at least you don't have to take money out of your home.

Fortunately, it had rained before, otherwise there was no water in this field, and the seedlings could not be planted.

It didn't rain again after that rain, everyone was very happy before, but these days they have begun to be anxious again, the sun is getting bigger and bigger day by day, and the water in the field is getting less and less, and the more you work, the more impatient it is.

Everyone is looking at this year's harvest, so the fact that the Lin family found a long-term worker from the town to come back to work did not make waves in the village.

This year, Gu Pingyong was honest, he didn't find anyone to work, and he didn't be lazy, so he led the family to the field when he could plant seedlings.

He has a lot of land, even if he doesn't delay his efforts, it can't be done, there are so many people in the Lin family, and the land is still a few acres less than him, so he has to find someone to come back to help him.

It's not that Gu Pingyong doesn't want to find someone to work this year, but he really has no choice, he can still be tough before, and if the second family doesn't help, he spends money to let the villagers help.

But there is no way to do it this year, last year was a disaster, and he squandered almost all the money in his family, and he only gave the year by selling food, where did he get the money to find someone to work this year? Don't you have to do it yourself?

He was arrogant, knowing that the Lin family was still angry after finding someone to come back to work this year, but there was nothing he could do, and now he didn't have the capital to fight against the Lin family.

After the seedlings fell into the ground, it never rained, and seeing that the water in the field had dried up, everyone was so anxious that they thought about whether to set up an altar to pray for rain.

Siqi doesn't believe in asking for rain, otherwise I'm sorry for the books she read for so many years in her previous life, but she's really anxious now.

The other crops have been planted, but the sweet potatoes have not been planted, and the sweet potatoes were buried before, so that they would turn red and grow vines, which is to keep the seeds, and then cut the vines into sections, and then plant them in the ground.

But the soil must be moist enough, and now the soil is so dry that there is no way to plant it, and if it doesn't rain all the time, you have to carry water to the ground.

How many acres of land, how much water do you need to carry water to water it thoroughly?

This year seems to be going to be a drought, and the water level in my own weir pond is also dropping, so the situation is not optimistic.

The day is so dry, the Dragon Boat Festival everyone is not interested, seeing that the year is not good, and the things in the market are getting more and more expensive, Liu's rushed to the market to buy some red dates and come back to wrap zongzi, and the price has doubled.

At the moment, everyone is in a hurry, the drought has brought countless pains, the last drought has only been a few years, this is going again, everyone is afraid, and they hurriedly hoard things at home, so the price is doubled.

The weather is getting hotter and hotter, and God doesn't mean to rain, Gu Kaiming is in charge, and he set up an altar in the ancestral hall of the village, and killed a fat pig to sacrifice, but it is not very useful, and it has not rained until mid-May.

Siqi began to be anxious, sweet potatoes should be planted around the Dragon Boat Festival, and now that the weather is getting drier, what should I do?

There are two weir ponds in the village, one large and one small, the small one is already their family, and the water in it can be used casually, but the water level is falling, and the family is reluctant to keep it for watering the fields.

If you take water from it to water the ground, it will take a lot of water, and this decision is even more difficult than the last time you harvested the crops early, and you don't know what to do.
