151. I saw it in vain
The family repeated these actions like this, and was busy until the sun was about to set, and stopped halfway to solve the food that Plum had brought.
The family put the corn they pulled down into the basket and prepared to carry it back, and even the youngest Zhou Zhu also carried a small basket, and the basket was still about half full.
Tuesday River plans to come back later.
The family carried the corn down the slope carefully, and finally walked to the flat place to relax the nerves, and met a few acquaintances in Dawan Village, who had just returned from the field, and they chatted while walking together.
Naturally, the adults talk about the harvest of each family.
After all, for the croppers, the quality of the harvest in one year determines the ration in the second half of the year. Naturally, those who have a lot of harvest are happy in their hearts, and those who have a small harvest have to envy others, and they have made up their minds to take good care of their crops next year.
When they were about to arrive at the door, they said goodbye to the crowd on Tuesday.
When I went home, I took the corn out and piled it up in the hall, and I was ready to come back in the evening to put it up and hang it to dry.
This time, Zhou Sun didn't let him go, let her cook at home, and Zhou Zhu, the little guy, also stayed.
Only Tuesday River took the Meizi sisters to go.
The grandfather went to the field to load the corn, and on the way down the mountain, he happened to meet the peace grandfather and grandson walking behind him.
Meizi, who fell at the end, found the two of them first and hurriedly said hello.
"Uncle and uncle, and big brother, you also come to pull corn!"
Heping and his grandfather just saw Meizi, their faces were a little uncomfortable, and when they heard Meizi's warm greeting, they couldn't speak.
Uncle He stood low with a resting wooden stick on his back while resting, and replied to Meizi's words with a smile.
Under the kind of wooden stick used to rest with the uncle is a straight wooden stick with the thickness of a baby's forearm, and the top of the wooden stick is a triangle with a low shape, and the back basket pier can stand and rest for a while on it. This kind of thing is specially used to carry heavy loads for long distances as a rest, and almost every farmer has one handful.
"Yes! Our grandfather and grandson came to pull the corn, and we took advantage of the rest of you and the eldest brother, otherwise I would not be able to bear this old bone like in previous years. ”
After saying this to the uncle, he looked at peace with relief.
Meizi also looked over there with Uncle He's eyes, and looked at the eyes that came over with peace, only to see the man's complicated eyes looking at him, and Meizi opened his eyes a little uncomfortably.
Tuesday River in front of him also stopped when he heard the conversation of several people, and greeted Uncle He and them as usual.
This is the first time I have seen Meizi since the day he was hired from Meizi, looking at the little girl who is almost a few meters away from him, his heart can be described as mixed, indescribable boredom, only to see the little girl greet her grandfather with a smile on her face, and look at her side.
I was a little impulsive, I wanted to go up the mountain to pull her, and tell all the thoughts I had about her in my heart.
I heard the flat voice of the river on Tuesday again, and then I suppressed the thoughts that welled up in my heart.
Finally, he pinched his hand hanging by his side, and controlled it before he lighted down this thought, but a pair of eyes were still firmly glued to Meizi.
The uncle who walked in front of him seemed to be able to feel his grandson's thoughts.
After turning around slightly, he knocked Heping's leg with the stick he had just rested.
A calm voice arrived.
"Walk well, don't think about what you don't have."
Heping heard his grandfather's words and felt a slight tingling pain in his calf, and then withdrew his gaze from staring at Meizi.
I couldn't help but mutter.
"Don't even let me look at it."
I didn't expect to be heard by my grandfather.
The old man looked back at his grandson with a look of regret.
"Grandpa, this is also for your own good, and if you see it, you will become someone else's family, and if you see it, it will only increase your sadness."
Heping couldn't help frowning when he heard what his grandfather said.
"Who knows?"
The old man was made to smile bitterly at the words of peace.
"Dead boy, I can tell you not to think about something you shouldn't have, our old family can't afford to lose this face."
Heping was also stunned when he heard his grandfather's words, and looked at his grandfather helplessly.
"Master, what are you thinking? Am I that kind of person? ”
The old man glanced at him and said something that was not salty or light.
"Who knows?"
He walked forward without looking back.
Peace finally sighed and followed.
When Meizi and the others arrived home, Zhou Sun's dinner was almost done.
The family simply ate some meals, probably not so tired for a long time, and the meal eaten by the family today felt much more fragrant than usual.
Zhou Sun's fried a pot of meat for everyone tonight, and in the end, even the bottom of the bowl became clean.
Zhou Sun looked at the empty dishes on the table and laughed unconsciously.
"Is the dinner I made today so delicious? Look at how many of you almost ate the bowl. ”
Tuesday He was a little embarrassed when his daughter-in-law said this.
The second girl on the side spoke.
"Mother, as long as you make it, it's delicious."
Meizi looked at the second girl, and a smile flashed in her eyes.
"Erniu, this means that I don't dare to eat what I did."
When the little girl heard her sister's words, she was stunned and hurriedly turned around and hugged her sister's arm and coquettishly became coquettish.
"Sister, what you make is also delicious! You and you are both delicious. ”
Zhou Zhu on the side was also busy echoing.
"Yes! The meals cooked by my mother and sister are delicious. Sister, I haven't eaten small fish in the river for a long time, when can I make it once? I want to eat. ”
Zhou Sun glanced at Zhou Zhu with a smile, and then stretched out his finger and nodded the little guy's forehead.
"I know how to eat all day long, and I have to be busy with the work in the field these days, and when I get tired, I will ask your sister to take you to the river to catch two."
When the little guy heard Zhou Sun's words, he jumped up happily.
"It's so nice to be a mother."
The whole family laughed when they saw the little one's happy appearance.
After dinner in the evening, after collecting the dishes and chopsticks, the family sat in the hall and formed a circle, just to reunite the pile of corn.
The family was busy carrying corn leaves, hanging them back and forth, and they were very busy.
When the corn is ready, it's almost late at night, and tomorrow I have to get up early to pull the corn.
Zhou Sun urged a few people to go to bed early.
Maybe it's been a long time since I've been so tired, Meizi took a bath tonight, lay on the bed for a while and fell asleep, and I didn't even hear the second girl talking to herself.
In the early morning, Meizi's family woke up to the sound of chickens and the chirping of birds that came out to forage in the morning.
