Almost all the men, women and children in the village work in the fields, and the soil of this village is particularly suitable for growing potatoes and sweet potatoes, so they only grow these two things, mainly potatoes.

The land here is very flat, the view is wide, after entering the village, you will see the boundless land, these good lands are of course those rich households, most of them are tenants to the local villagers to plant, and some of them hire long-term workers to plant, but no matter which one, this year they are planting sweet potatoes and potatoes according to the arrangement of the yamen.

Originally, this was not easy to do, and those rich people did not pay attention to the sky, and their fields had to be planted with the crops they wanted to grow, and they also asked the peasants to hand over the food they needed.

Tiankuo thought that when the time came, he would help these villagers solve the problem, and it would be a big deal to come back from the outside to exchange food, but after the holy decree came, these people were extremely cooperative, saying that they all listened to the arrangement of the yamen and would never go against the yamen again.

It's good now, you can do what you want, all the same, and you don't have to worry about those people anymore.

As soon as they entered the village, the villagers who were working in the fields came to greet them, smiling and welcoming one by one.

Tiankuo and Siqi are not the first time they have come back here, some of them are familiar, they simply said hello, and everyone went back to work.

Spring ploughing can not be delayed, the county magistrate and his wife came, they were happy, but they also had to take care of the work in the field.

The official who came with them was still standing on the side, and when the village chief came, Siqi said, "Go back and help your family with the work, we will all stay here today." ”

Hearing this, the official was very happy and quickly nodded, "Thank you, madam, I'll go back to help my daughter-in-law work." ”

As soon as he finished saying this, his daughter-in-law passed by and saw him, and hurriedly greeted him, "Child, father, why are you back?" ”

He smiled and said, "I'm coming back to help with the work, daughter-in-law, you have worked really hard, you are more capable than me, I have to learn from you in the future." ”

Suddenly, when he said this, his daughter-in-law didn't come back to her senses, and looked around, "You, what's wrong with you?" Why do you say this all of a sudden? Daddy, are you in trouble? ”

He said, "What's this, I should have said it in the first place, I've been outside, you're running the house alone, how hard it is, let's go, I'll help you work." ”

His daughter-in-law believed that he really felt sorry for her, and suddenly felt a little embarrassed, and there were still people watching on the side, and looked at him angrily, "How many years have you been a husband and wife, there are several children, and you still say such things, and you are not afraid of people's jokes." ”

"Jokes are jokes, the two of us are husband and wife, what's wrong with jokes?"

The husband and wife talked and laughed, and soon walked away, and the village chief said, "My lord, the grass people will take you everywhere to see." ”

Tiankuo smiled and said, "You don't have to be so polite, just be casual." ”

They really have to follow along to see it, and they don't know how the work in the field is doing, there can be no mistakes, if something goes wrong at this time, and the seeds are wasted, there is no way to get them from home again, and they have to delay another year.

Siqi and Tiankuo looked around, the villagers in the village already knew how to plant sweet potatoes and potatoes, cut potatoes and wrap them in grass and wood ashes, and then bury them, as well as cut sweet potato vines and build soil ridges, these jobs were done decently, it seems that they have really learned hard, otherwise they can't get started so quickly the first time.

Everyone is very troubled, so that this year's harvest will definitely not be bad, and there is no shortage of water this year, and God is also very face-saving, it is really a good year.

After looking at it roughly, Siqi and Tiankuo didn't need to look at it anymore, the village chief said, "My lord, now I'll take you to my house to rest for a while, eat at my house at noon, coarse tea and light rice, and I hope that adults and Mrs. will not dislike it." ”

Tiankuo said, "We only like coarse tea and light rice, the food in the farmhouse yard is the most delicious, let's go, don't delay your work." ”

The village chief took the two of them to his house, thinking that they would stay here instead of working on the ground, so he discussed it with Tiankuo.

Tiankuo said, "Are you sure you want to go?" How long has it been since you went to the ground? Beware of being tired for a while, and being embarrassed to say no. ”

Siqi glared at him, "Am I that kind of person?" I can't be tired of this bit of work, I haven't been in the field for a long time, and I still miss that feeling. ”

Tiankuo nodded, and said to the village chief, "We both grew up in the countryside, and we can do this rural work, so why don't you find us two clothes to change into, and follow you to work in the fields." ”

The village chief hurriedly waved his hand, "Then how can you do it, how can you go to the field with such a noble status as your lord and lady?" The field was full of mud, and when I walked around, my clothes and shoes had to be glued, and my hands were so rough that Madame would not dare to go. ”

Siqi said with a smile, "I used to do all these jobs, I got used to it, I haven't been on the ground for a long time, and I still feel a little uncomfortable. ”

The village chief saw that the two of them were not joking, and they also accepted it, and hurried to the house to find two sets of clothes.

Although they were dressed in the field, the village chief was embarrassed to give them too shabby, and they were all the clothes he and his daughter-in-law wore on weekdays, but even if it was, there were two small patches, which were relatively good.

Siqi and Tiankuo didn't say much, anyway, they just cherished a little, changed their clothes, and changed into their shoes on the ground, and then followed the village chief to work in the field.

When everyone saw that the husband and wife had changed their clothes for work, they were immediately frightened, and hurriedly said, "Village chief, how can you let the adults and their wives work?" This, this is really unruly. ”

The village chief smiled and said, "I can't help it, my lord and lady have to be like this, everyone has to work hard." ”

As soon as they heard this, everyone's morale was high, and they took out their strength and threw off their arms to work.

The magistrates of the county have personally gone to the field, they are planting their own land, can they not work hard?

Tiankuo helped dig the pit, and Siqi buried the sweet potato vine with the other women, they were not in the same field, but they were very happy, chatting with the people around them, not to mention how good it felt.

Siqi still misses this kind of life, thinking about it, and starting to miss his family again, this blink of an eye, I haven't seen it for almost a year, and I don't know what is going on at home, no matter what happens this year, I have to go home no matter what.

When she came, she still thought, maybe she won't see it for a few years, that's nothing, she will go back anyway, but when she came here, she realized how uncomfortable it was to miss her family.
