In the blink of an eye, it is time for corn to be harvested.

The village school also began to take a one-month farm vacation.

After a while, Ashin will be ten years old, and in the ancient countryside, a kid as big as Ashin was already more than half a laborer.

Ziyou's last serious illness was just seven days later, and she was miraculously cured, and she was able to work in the field the next day, and after a few days, Doctor Ge was late.

As soon as Doctor Ge came, he saw the lively Ziyou and felt that he was being soaked, and he was picky about Yun Tianming's nose every day, not his nose and eyes, and he wanted Yun Tianming to compensate him for a lot of the suffering he still suffered at his age.

Speaking of age, Ziyou sees that he is only in his early forties, but Yun Tianming respects him very much, and it can be said that he responds to his needs, Yun Tianming's family has a good study, which was changed into an alchemy room by the other party, and every time Ziyou approaches his room, he can always hear a crackling sound, and he has a posture of not leaving.

Yun Tianming and Huang Yu wanted to go back to Yanjing because of something, and Tuo Ziyou sent food to the divine doctor, and every time she wanted to take advantage of the meal to see how the ancients were alchemizing, she was stared at by the divine doctor Ge like a thief, and she was very depressed.

However, Ziyou also knew that in ancient times, these things were like family heirlooms, and they could not be easily exposed to others.

Even so, Ziyou still didn't give up, this is ancient chemistry, plus Yun Tianming's food expenses are very sufficient, at the beginning, Ziyou changed the law every day to please the divine doctor and his old man to make him a good meal, but he still can't look at it twice, Ziyou thought, then your old man has something to eat.

It's a pity that Ziyu's backbone didn't last even a day, and he was bought by the divine doctor with money.

A meal is a tael of silver, who can withstand this temptation?

.........

On this day, she broke the corn in the field, her face covered tightly, she broke the corn cob with her hand, and every once in a while she turned her head to look at Ashin who was trying to keep up with her speed.

Seeing that Ashin's headscarf was all soaked with sweat, Ziyou said to him, "Ashin, when you are tired, take a rest." ”

"Well, sister, aren't you tired?" Ashin didn't stop talking and kept throwing corn into the back basket.

Ziyou thought that she had so much strength, but she was not tired, but she was not tired, but the corn leaves and whiskers made her very uncomfortable to scrape.

She pulled the headscarf on her face with her hand, revealing her face covered with sweat, and then fanned the scars scratched by corn leaves with her hand, and said to Ashin with a sigh: "I didn't expect to harvest corn so hard!" ”

Since Ziyou and Ashin were inexperienced at the beginning, Aunt Cui told the two of them to wear a headscarf, but the two of them didn't listen, they were too stuffy, and they tore off the headscarf as soon as they went out, causing both of them to have thin cuts on their faces.

In the past few days, the whole village has not had a good rest day and night, and Ziyou has heard that the autumn harvest of rural people is to compete with God for time, and this time I really felt it.

After hearing this, Ashin also nodded and agreed: "It's very hard, but fortunately, Grandpa Hu has reminded us when he gave us a holiday." ”

Ziyou saw that the basket behind Ashin was almost full, and he stopped him, and the two went to the field together.

Ashin put the basket down and picked up the sack on the ground and stretched it out.

Ziyou picked up a basket of corn with one hand and poured it in, and the two cooperated very tacitly.

After finishing the matter, Ziyou picked up the crockpot in the field and drank a few sips, handed it to Ashin and asked, "Did Grandpa Hu say anything else?" ”

Ashin also took two sips, wiped his mouth and replied: "He also said that people didn't want to see corn in the past, and they didn't want to plant it, but after famine, they knew that corn could save lives. ”

This son didn't know that in the memory of the original owner, since his father became a soldier, in addition to two taels of silver a year, the source of income of his family basically relied on the original owner and the original owner's mother to weave and embroider, and neither mother nor daughter was very good at farming.

At this time, Ziyou heard a very sharp voice calling his mother, followed by a burst of shouting and crying, but unfortunately the corn stalk was too high to immediately see what was happening, and the sound should have come from the neighboring field.

"Sister, something must have happened to Hu Qiangniang!" Before Ashin could react, he rushed over.

"......" Ziyou thought that this weather was eighty percent of heat stroke, and there were many people who fainted in the past few days, so he brought the clay pot and followed.

"Spread out." Ziyou watched Aunt Xie being surrounded by the children, and it felt like it was crowded enough in the cornfield, Ziyou stuffed the jar into Ashin's arms after speaking, squatted down and lifted one of Aunt Xie's arms to his shoulder, and the other hand passed under the other party's knee, hugged it effortlessly, and stopped until he walked to the shady ground under the tree in the distance.

Aunt Xie was too light, Ziyou suddenly recalled the feeling of carrying Ashin at the beginning, and felt very uncomfortable, she gently put the other party on the ground, let Ashin pull a few corn stalks and fold them under her head, and fed her some mint syrup.

"Sister Ziyou, is my mother okay?" Hu Xiang licked the skin of her dry hair, pulled her younger brother who was wiping her tears, and asked anxiously why.

"It's okay, you two can drink some water too." After saying that, he handed over the crockpot.

Hu Xiang took the jar and handed it to Hu Qiang and asked him to drink it first.

Ziyou watched Hu Qiang drink a little anxiously and almost choked. So he asked Hu Xiang: "You didn't bring water?" ”

"No, my mother said that the water is too heavy, and you can carry a few more buds without water." After Hu Xiang finished speaking, he looked at Ziyou with some embarrassment.

"Sister, you also drink it, the water of Sister Ziyou's house is cold and sweet." Hu Qiang took two sips and handed the jar to Hu Xiang like a treasure.

Hu Xiang licked her lips again, swallowed her saliva and said, "I'm not thirsty, leave some for Sister Ziyou and Ashin." When she took the crockpot, she thought that there might not be much water in the jar.

Ziyou looked at Ashin without speaking, and Ashin immediately realized: "My sister and I just finished drinking, and we are not thirsty, so I don't have to carry it back after you two drink it." ”

Ziyuya nodded at the siblings.

Hu Xiang listened, so she was willing to drink, she just took a sip and handed the jar to her brother, until the two of them ate the little sugar and water left in the jar one by one.

"Sister Ziyou, how much copper does it cost to buy a cow?" Hu Xiang asked curiously when he handed the jar to Ziyou.

"It's going to be two and a half." After Ziyou finished answering, he saw Hu Xiang's shocked expression.

"So much!" Hu Qiang also exclaimed.

When Ziyou was chatting with a few children, he caught a glimpse of Steward Yun driving an ox cart to pull corn.

Steward Yun also saw Ziyou, stopped the ox cart, and asked them what was going on.

"Aunt Xie has a heat stroke, or Steward Yun, you can help them pull the corn back first."

Ziyou thought to himself, so much corn waiting for Aunt Xie to wake up and carry back bags I don't know how long it will take, I saw that although the people on the road did not have ox carts, they were all pulled by rack carts, but I didn't expect that Aunt Xie was still using such primitive means for the autumn harvest, seeing that Steward Yun nodded, Ziyou asked Hu Xiang to stay and take care of Aunt Xie.

He carried Hu Qiang to the ox cart and went to the field together.
