Chapter 161: Threshing Corn
Gu Jianping shook his head, sighed again, and his tone was weak, "No matter, he is also in his forties, I don't need to teach him how to be a man, if he is really like that, I can't control it." “
From Gu Jingyun's point of view, she can clearly see the loneliness and heaviness on her father's face.
Oh, yes!
After all, he is also the younger brother who used to love and care, and now he has become such a person.
I don't think any responsible man will feel good.
She could feel the depression and sorrow in her father's heart.
But she is also glad to be able to live in such a happy family.
Even though they did not provide her with a rich material life, what they gave her was spiritual abundance, which made her grow into what she expected.
She felt that this was an even more precious treasure.
Without disturbing her parents, who were still talking, she quietly left.
As soon as December passed, it entered January, and the Gu family's project came to an end.
At this time, the Gu family's house has been repaired and renovated, and the homestay has also reached the final stage of decoration.
Most of the workers have left, leaving only the renovation workers still polishing the remaining details.
On this day, Gu Jingyun was threshing corn with her mother.
She didn't have much corn at home, so she planted an acre of land, picked it when it was young, boiled and eaten, and left the rest in the field to be dried.
If you want to make your livestock fat, you have to feed them some food.
The corn is dried and most of the moisture has evaporated, and then it is ready for threshing.
In Changshui Village, corn is also threshed manually.
This year's corn production is not much, and there is not much time for later maintenance.
At that time, when the Gu family came back, the corn field was overgrown with weeds, and there were many things later, at that time, most of the corn was formed, and no matter how much weeding went, it would not increase the yield much, so Gu Jianping didn't take care of the land.
There were two baskets of corn that were recovered, and they were piled to the brim.
Now there are a lot of pigs, sheep, chickens and ducks in the family, and when this number increases, the daily consumption of grain also increases a lot.
Gu Jingyun has now tried to feed them with the vegetable leaves in the vegetable garden and the young grass on the mountain.
Still, food is essential.
There is a trick to picking this corn, and most people are serious about picking off the corn one by one.
But Changshui Village threshed corn, but first poked out two rows of corn with a flathead screwdriver.
Then use the corn cob that has been threshed to wipe the corn cob that has not been threshed, so that it is easy to thresh the corn.
However, after working like this for a long time, the palm still grinds and hurts, and generally Gu Qianyun will bring a pair of gloves, so that the pain caused by friction will be reduced.
"Mom, look at this posture, we'll have to grow more corn next year." Gu Jingyun talked to her mother while picking corn.
Lin Shuhua nodded back to her, "Yes." “
A while ago, the farm was repaired and so many livestock were added, and next year it should be more corn, and the livestock must be fed some grain to grow fat.
"I think our pigs are raising well this year, and we should be able to produce a lot of meat during the New Year." Gu Jingyun said.
Lin Shuhua was also happy, "Your father goes to cut pigweed every morning and feeds our pigs very strong." “
Gu Jingyun glanced at her mother, feeling that her teeth were a little sour, this sour smell of happiness!
