The family was stunned for a while before coming back to their senses, and Du Shi was the first to speak, overjoyed.

"Third child, you still know the head catcher in the county government, this is really amazing, why didn't you ask someone to find you an errand, so that our family also has someone to support you."

"Your skills, farming at home is really a waste, it's better to go to the county government to seek errands."

Lin Changyuan glanced at her, didn't answer, didn't mention these things before, it was because it was useless to mention it, and then it was to guard against Du's family.

This second sister-in-law wants to live a good life all her life, and she is still lazy and greedy, if she knows that she knows the people of the county government, she should make up her mind.

Sure enough, now that he said it, Du Shi didn't disappoint him.

But in order to get this done, he had to say.

Lin Changyuan ignored her, and said directly, "Dad, look at what this thing is, if it is feasible, I will take the time to go to the county town in two days to see if this thing can be done." ”

Lin Dezheng thought about it and asked Lin Changfu and Lin Changgui, "Boss and second, what do you two say?" ”

Lin Changfu said with a smile, "Dad, my second brother and I are not as bright as the third brother, we can't think of such a good idea, I just heard what the third brother said, I think it's not bad, if it can be done, it will be more convenient to do anything at home in the future, I have no opinion." ”

Lin Changgui also said, "Dad, I also mean the same, the third brother is capable, if we can really buy the weir pond and use it, it is really a good thing." ”

Lin Dezheng nodded, "That's it, this matter will be settled first, the third child, it's time to threshh soon, don't worry now, wait until the crops in the field are recovered." ”

"Hey, I know, I'll go back in a few days."

After discussing it for a while, this matter was settled, Siqi was relieved, Erniang finally didn't make a fuss.

After washing her face and feet and going back to the house to sleep, Siqi was still sitting and talking to Si Yao, when someone knocked on the door quietly, and she hurriedly ran over.

"Big brother, is there anything else?"

Zijun smiled and took out two pieces of watermelon from behind him, "This is the watermelon left for us, I and Zikang will eat a piece, this piece is divided into two halves, you and Siyao are one half, eat it quickly." ”

Siqi hurriedly said, "We ate today, and the eldest brother and the second brother ate it." ”

Zijun smiled, "I know that you are greedy, how can you eat a piece, take it quickly, you are my sister, I still have no pain?" ”

Siqi licked his lips, "Thank you, big brother, big brother is so good." ”

The watermelon was brought into the house, the door was shut, and the sisters sat down to eat it.

Two small pieces of watermelon, but I feel extra sweet when I eat them, and it feels good to have the love of my family.

In mid-July, the paddy in the paddy fields can be harvested, which is the happiest time of the year.

At this time, the main crop was rice, and the annual tax was also discounted according to the rice.

An acre of land is about 50 catties of rice, at this time there is no pesticides and fertilizers, the yield is not high, and it is good to produce three or four hundred catties per acre of land, so the tax is quite high.

Threshing season is the busiest time in the countryside, and all the men, women and children in the family have to move, and anyone who can go to the field has to go down to the field to help.

It is easy to rain during the threshing season, and if it rains heavily for several days, all the millet will fall in the field, and the harvest of the hard work of the year will be so ruined, so it is necessary to hurry.

Siqi rarely went to the field after coming here, the Lin family is a family that spoils children very much, as long as the field is busy, the children will not be too tired, and they usually do something at home.

However, when the threshing is carried out, they all have to go to the field to help cut the rice, and the sooner it is recovered, the better.

On this day, Lin Dezheng went to the field to take a turn, and he was happy when he came back, "Boss, the rice in our field can be beaten, I look very good, this year's ideas are good, I should be able to fight a lot, tomorrow I will go and take back the rice in the field." ”

Lin Changfu nodded, "Okay, I'll go to the field tomorrow, there are six acres of land in the field, I'm afraid it will take several days." ”

The Lin family has more than 40 acres of land, and more than 30 acres of rice are planted a year, and according to 300 catties of one acre of land, 9,000 catties of millet can be harvested.

If you hand over another 1,500 catties, and 7,500 catties, and then turn the millet into rice, you can get about 70 catties for 100 catties, and then there will only be more than 5,000 catties of rice.

The Lin family has more than 20 people, and each person has less than 300 catties of rations a year, an average of less than one catty a day, so the food is not enough to eat.

The other crops are mainly soybeans, wheat, millet, these things are also rations, but in this case, rice is the main thing.

Siqi calculated an account in his mind, only felt tired and panicked, dozens of acres of rice, it was really tiring to take it back, at this time there was no threshing machine, had to be beaten a little by hand, and I felt sore before I worked.

In the afternoon, Zi Junzi Kang came back from school and said, "Grandpa, Mr. said that the farm holiday will start tomorrow, can we collect the land at home?" ”

Lin Dezheng smiled and said, "That's really a coincidence, just talking about harvesting the field tomorrow, you two are tired this year, you are both young men." ”

Zikang smiled, "I'm not tired, I wish I had more food, how good is it to be able to eat dry rice all year round?" Much better than porridge. ”

In this year, the conditions for the family to eat dry food all the time are not bad, and the people in the countryside do not have any big wishes, so they are looking forward to this.

I got up early the next morning, first busily worked on the affairs of the house, and then found the oldest clothes to wear, cutting rice is a tiring job, I can't wear good clothes, otherwise I can't wash them.

Siqi This is the first time to cut rice in the field, and he has seen it in the countryside in his previous life, but he has not experienced it himself.

There is still a threshing machine to help, she feels very tired when she looks at it, but she can imagine what kind of threshing will be like at this time.

Everyone in the family who can work has to go to the fields, Zichen is still young, and he wants someone to take care of him at home, so the Wu family let Wanrong and Siyao stay at home.

Si Yao said, "Grandma, just let the little aunt look at Zichen, I'll go to work too, and I'll be relieved to take it back as soon as possible." ”

Wu waved his hand, "You can't do much if you go, you and your sister-in-law like to do embroidery work, embroidery is also good, these hands have to be well maintained, if you two want to do embroidery work and sell it, you can't hook the cloth, and your hands are rough." ”

"You two are at home, send water to the fields, and cut the vegetables at noon."

Si Yao felt embarrassed, but Wu obviously didn't mean to let her go to the field, so she stayed.

Du Shi is called an unhappy, dead girl, who actually stays at home to enjoy happiness, but she is really lazy.
