The next day, it was Long Hexuan and Xi Guodong, and the county order made an appointment to cut rice.

Early in the morning, the rice field they rented and planted was surrounded by villagers, looking at the golden ears of rice bending over under the blue sky, swaying gently with the wind, and the villagers praised it.

Long Hexuan, Ying Sheng, Ying Jing, Ying Yin and other three people only came over in the middle of the hour.

Xi Yuexin also wanted to follow, but was rejected by Long Hexuan, the reason for the refusal was: the sun will be big for a while, and they will free up people to send her back, thinking of her big belly, and the sun is also big today, Xi Yuexin took a break and stayed at home.

"Young Master Long, can you harvest?" Seeing Long Hexuan, Xi Guodong immediately greeted him and asked.

Long Hexuan glanced at the path leading to the entrance of the village, then looked up at the sky, and then said lightly: "Don't worry, wait a while." ”

"Okay." Long Hexuan is the master, he said wait, they can only wait.

After a while, a villager suddenly shouted: "How can there be an official master and an official errand?" Why are they all coming this way? ”

Hearing this shout, everyone looked over, and sure enough, on the path leading to the entrance of the village, a middle-aged man in official uniform was supported by a middle-aged man with a goatee and walked towards them, and behind the two, followed by eight officials in official uniforms.

Seeing this large group of people, the villagers all looked at each other, and they didn't understand, didn't this official and the official come to arrest people? How did you get to the fields? Could it be that the people they want to arrest are here?

But looking at them all the way away, they all looked cautious, and it didn't look like, if they came to arrest people, they should be menacing, right? Now the villagers were puzzled.

Soon the county order and the official messenger came to Long Hexuan, the county order first stepped forward to salute Long Hexuan, but was stopped by Long Hexuan raised his hand, and the county order remembered the explanation of Ying Sheng yesterday, so he only bowed his hand: "The lower official has seen Long Gongzi." ”

Long Hexuan just nodded at him, and then instructed Xi Guodong: "It's time to harvest." ”

As soon as Long Hexuan gave the order, Xi Guodong led the villagers who had been arranged to harvest to the field, while Zhou Zhixian waved his hand, and the officials standing behind him dispersed and guarded around this rice field.

Xi Guodong also prepared three other people to tie up the rice they had cut, and then pick it back to the village grain drying field for threshing.

Seeing that someone had already returned to the village with the first load of rice, Long Hexuan also raised his feet and returned to the village, and said when he passed by the county order: "Zhou County order, let's go back to the village to record the yield." ”

"Yes, Master Long." After Zhou County's order was handed over, he glanced at the master, and the two of them raised their heels to Long Hexuan.

Seeing that Long Hexuan was going back to the village, Ying Jing and Ying Yin followed, while Ying Sheng continued to stay in the field and supervised the villagers who cut rice with Xi Guodong.

The threshing field in the village, in the middle of the village, on the threshing field, Xi Jia'an was already waiting there with the oxen tied to the stone mill.

The villagers who were waiting to pick the rice and then drove the cattle to turn around and thresh.

Xi Jia'an is responsible for threshing, and Xi Jianing is responsible for separating the threshed rice from the straw, and then shoveling the threshed rice into the basket with a bamboo shovel.

As soon as the threshed rice was shoveled into the basket, and the second load of rice was also picked back, Xi Jia'an continued to thresh.

Long Hexuan and the others stood on the side, waiting for this to fill a basket, and then the master brought by Zhou County Ling was responsible for weighing and recording the output.

Due to the large number of people, only one morning, the rice of that acre of field was harvested, at this time the master was recording the weight of the last load of rice, everyone held their breath, waiting for him to announce the final result, very much want to know, how much rice production is in this acre of paddy field?
