26 Happy harvest

After more than ten busy days, finally, in the sound of knowledge, the ears of wheat have turned yellow.

In mid-July, families began to harvest wheat. Luo Xiaoqiao wanted to find someone to help with the harvest, twenty-five copper plates a day, but Grandpa Luo and Grandma Luo disagreed, thinking that they were capable.

After these days of recuperation, Grandpa Luo and Grandma Luo's physique has also obviously improved, the whole family only has three acres of land, plus Luo Xiaoni, three people, can basically cope.

They didn't let Luo Xiaoqiao go to the ground, she is now the weakest in the family, and the family is unwilling to let her bask in the sun, if she hadn't insisted that she would be in good health in the sun, she would have been driven back as soon as she came out.

Even Luo Niuniu followed the field to pick up ears of wheat, which made Luo Xiaoqiao feel that he was really a bit of a waste.

Luo Xiaoqiao stood on the ground, looking at the villagers in the wheat waves, all of them working in the field with flying sickles. Mai Mang was stuck on his body and face, and it was very itchy.

Luo Xiaoni directly wrapped a piece of cloth cut from rags on her face, and the sickle never stopped for a moment.

The villagers mainly rely on the sky for farming, the whole village has dug a total of four wells, one in the southeast and one in the northwest, this year's rain is not good enough, there are diligent people, every day after drawing water with a wheel, they will carry it to the ground to water the wheat, but it is basically a drop in the bucket.

Therefore, the wheat harvested this year is relatively sparse, and the ears of wheat are not full enough. But looking at the faces of the villagers, it seems that they are very accustomed to the harvest, and they feel very acceptable and satisfied.

When it was time to eat at noon, Luo Xiaoqiao asked, "Grandpa, how much wheat can we harvest per acre of land?" ”

"When the year is good, it's about three stones, and when the year is almost good, it's good to have one stone, and this year it's done, I guess, how can I get two stones."

Luo Xiaoqiao silently converted it in his heart, one stone is equal to about 100 catties, two stones are 200 catties, and one acre of land produces 200 catties of grain. How much of a test field did she plant back then? If I remember correctly, I planted three pieces of land, and the difference was more than 800 catties, and the good one was 1,100 catties, and the gap was too big.

It is no wonder that Mr. Yuan's hybridization has made immeasurable merits, feeding hundreds of millions of people.

The summer wind, with its heat, did not affect the joy of receiving the goods in the slightest.

Each family is a family out to harvest, there are a few hard-working families, busy in the field during the day, and go home at night to continue to OEM parts, looking at a thriving scene.

The tools of the villagers are very rudimentary, after the sickle is cut into wheat, tied into bundles, and those who have ox carts are transported home by ox carts, and those who do not are carried home by small carts, and even carried by manpower to their homes.

The villagers are also relatively united, and there are several families with ox carts, and after they are busy with their own homes, they hear the neighbors greeting, and they also drive the cattle over to help transport them.

The village chief's car is the favorite use of the big guys, and the village chief is righteous, as long as he doesn't tire out the cows, whoever calls them will help.

Everyone can't use other people's ox carts in vain, those who can give money will give a lot of money, and those who can't give it will make something delicious and send it, and the villagers can understand it.

Different from the village chief's family, the Liu family is also a limited number of families with cattle, but Liu's sister-in-law spoke, transporting a car for two pennies, no matter how much she moved.

However, with their cart, they still have to say a lot of good things, and if it weren't for the fact that the village chief's family and the other people's ox carts were too busy, no one would want to deal with them.

Luo Xiaoqiao didn't think about improving the harvesting conditions, but it was too late to do so. Come, she also wants to see the original harvesting efficiency this year, and then set an improvement strategy, not to mention that her own family is only three acres of land, which is not in great demand, and it is not too rebellious.

Luo Dashan's family has a lot of labor, Luo Zhiyong has also returned, plus his daughter-in-law, as well as Luo Zhiping and Aunt Luo, the family is a strong laborer, although there is a little more land, it is only six acres, and the progress is far behind the other villagers.

Luo Zhiping carried the bundles of wheat back and forth, and after a while, he received all the wheat he had cut into the ox cart.

The young man wiped the sweat on his head and greeted Luo Dashan, "Dad, our family is almost over, I'll help Xiao Qiao's family." ”

"Well, let's go," Luo Dashan said sullenly.

thought he couldn't see this kid's thoughts, but Grandpa Luo didn't know what he thought, and Xiaoni was the only one in their family who could work, and he definitely wouldn't want to let her marry early.

Besides, the Luo family is seeing it, and it is not possible to find a kind of person in the future, their family, people may not be able to take a fancy to it.

Luo's sister-in-law also muttered to Luo Dashan: "Boss, why do I see that Zhiping is wrong?" ”

Zhiyong's daughter-in-law covered her mouth and laughed: "Mother, did you just see it, Zhiping has taken a fancy to Xiaoni?" ”

"What!" , Sister-in-law Luo was a little stunned, she didn't think about that place at all.

"Boss, this is a good thing, can you find a day to try Uncle Luo's idea? I've seen the big one since I was a child, and it's a good one. He is sensible and capable. ”

Sister-in-law Luo chattered for a long time, but their voices were very small and did not let others hear.

Luo Zhiyong was also a little stunned, he was not at home all the year round, and he didn't know the changes in the Luo family: "Is it our neighbor Xiaoni?" Their family is really pitiful, a child as old as Xiaoni, helping to pull his younger brothers and sisters, is sensible enough, if he can really come to our house, it is also a creation. ”

Zhiyong's daughter-in-law twisted him: "What kind of creation, what nonsense?" Don't you look at what Xiaoni has been wearing lately? ”

"What are you wearing? are all countrymen, can they still be silk and satin? Luo Zhiyong asked with some curiosity.

"You just came back and don't know, my father has been working at Uncle Luo's house recently, twenty-five copper plates a day, Zhiping from Uncle Luo's house into the boiled and sold, almost forty or fifty copper plates a day, and now the whole village is giving her family OEM parts."

The daughter-in-law gave him a popularization slowly, and while saying, she was still a little envious, she really wanted her man to come back.

"Really?" Luo Zhiyong was really surprised, "Is their family up?" ”

"It's true, it's really up, I heard Xiao Qiao mention it that day, saying that there is still a shortage of people, and I asked if you can come back to help."

"Dad, that's a good idea, we know the roots, my long-term work is also hard work, and the salary is only this amount, and you have to look at the shopkeeper's face, can't you tell Xiao Qiao, see if I can go after the wheat harvest?"

After Luo Zhiyong said this, he looked at his daughter-in-law looking at his father with a look of hope, and felt a little guilty, he didn't have children yet, who wouldn't want to be close to his wife? All year round, life is not so easy.

"Cheng, when the wheat is harvested, I'll ask", Luo Dashan replied dryly.

In summer, when it gets dark late, the sunset on the horizon reflects half of the mountains red, Luo Xiaoqiao is feeling the rare cool breeze in summer and enjoying this rare scenery.

Luo Niuniu came over: "Let's go, second sister, I'll take you to find the interception monkey?" ”

"You two should come back early", Luo Xiaoni shouted from behind.

"Got it......"

The interception of monkeys is to know the state of the larvae before molting, and the villagers like to catch them, pickle them in jars, and then eat them whether they are burned or fried, which is a rare delicacy.

Every summer, the poor who have no meat to eat see the monkey as an opportunity to make a tooth sacrifice, and after coming down from the ground, they will see if there is anything climbing on the tree.

There are also those who are bold, light torches, and go out to touch them when it gets dark.

Luo Xiaoqiao loves to eat interception monkeys, this pollution-free and pollution-free little thing, chewing is chewy and enjoyable, and cicada is still a kind of Chinese medicinal material.

The two of them chatted and looked for it.

The afterglow of the setting sun has a shallow haze on the body, and the sound of villagers greeting and joking can be heard in the distance.

"Second sister, I found one", Luo Niuniu excitedly took down a trapping monkey from the trunk, and still waved his front paws in his hand to climb up.

"It's really good", Luo Xiaoqiao praised him twice, and the little guy was even more energetic.

Luo Xiaoqiao is different from Luo Niuniu, her eyes look underground.

At this time, it was not yet dark, and many of the interception monkeys did not come out, so they stayed underground and began to open their holes wider.

Luo Xiaoqiao bent over, poked the hole in the ground for a while, and saw that from a small eye, it turned into a big hole under the poke, and the interception monkey in it instantly fell to a deeper place, and he was very happy.

She put the stick in the hole and waited patiently for it to climb up on its own.

There was that naughty boy, who joked at Luo Xiaoqiao with a smile: "Sister Xiaoqiao, how slow you are, pour urine on it, and it will come out in a while." ”

Luo Xiaoqiao: ...... These bear children, why are they so vulgar. She decided not to eat the interception monkey given by others in the future, who knows if she found it this way.

In the midst of laughter, several people had a good harvest, Luo Niuniu led Luo Xiaoqiao, and walked home happily.

Luo Xiaoqiao stretched out without an image, and suddenly felt that the days when he came here were really good.
