Li Qing picked up two buckets of clothes, and when he got home, Ouyang also got up and stood by the wall of the West House to brush his teeth.

When he turned around, he saw a lot of mud on Li Qing's clothes, and asked with concern

"What's wrong, slipped? Ahh

Li Qing closed his lips tightly, tears swirling in his eyes, did not answer, and put the two buckets containing clothes on the balcony.

A gust of wind ran into the room, gently used the folding chair behind the door, reached the door, and quickly changed into a clean old clothes.

Seeing that Meng Meng was sleeping soundly, he walked out of the door and fastened the hinges of the door, picked up the mud-stained clothes, and went to the small pond at the door to scrub them.

Ouyang brushed his teeth, washed his face, took out the clothes in the bucket one by one, stretched them out with a hanger, and hung them on the wire on the balcony.

Ouyang shouted at the pond

"Li Qing, have the clothes been washed? It's almost time for breakfast."

"Okay"

Li Qing took the basin and walked from the pond to the balcony.

"Ouyang, son, it's time for breakfast!"

Jiang Cui shouted in the kitchen.

Li Qing dried his clothes, and Ouyang said with a smile

"Li Qing, let's go, go have breakfast."

Two people walked to the back door one after the other,

"Beat Yang, you go first, I'll go see Mengmeng"

"Okay,"

Ouyang stepped through the back door and went to the kitchen.

Li Qing quietly walked into the east room, approached the bed, saw that Mengmeng was sleeping very sweetly, and pulled the thin blanket and covered Mengmeng's waist.

Ouyang Lei was already sitting at the small dining table, bowing his head to eat breakfast, and there was a half-eaten snack in the bowl.

Ouyang just served the bowl, Jiang Cui sandwiched a snack into Ouyang bowl,

"Mom, did you go to the street to buy snacks?"

"You wait to cut the rice, unlike usual, eat casually, and you have to eat enough to do heavy work, otherwise how can you have the strength to work?"

Ouyang said.

"You're all going to eat?"

Jiang Cui replied, squinting at the East House.

"It's all there"

Li Qing walked out of the room lightly and closed the door.

Ouyang walked out of the kitchen with a bowl, walked through the hall, and arrived at the gate, talking to the next door while eating breakfast.

"Ouyang, your family is good at harvesting rice today, and the sun is so big today"

"My mother just said that the sun is strong today, so she only cut the rice."

"It's not good to be too early in the morning, there's dew"

"We had breakfast just right"

"My aunt is a good farmer"

"My mother is illiterate, if she practiced for a few years, she would have gone up in that era."

"I heard that my aunt was the women's captain at that time, planting seedlings and cutting rice in the production team, and she won the first place every time, and now we young people can't do her."

Jiang Cui came to the gate with a bowl and asked with a smile, "What are you talking about?"

Li Qing stepped through the back door and entered the kitchen.

Li Qing put a bowl of porridge in the iron pot, sandwiched some pickles, looked at the small dining table, found no snacks, turned around and walked out of the kitchen to the room with the bowl.

Li Qinggang finished eating a bowl of porridge,

"Mom"

Meng Meng woke up.

"Mengmeng, wake up? Pee first."

After Li Qing peed Meng Meng,

When she washed Mengmeng's face, combed her hair, and fed Mengmeng for breakfast, Jiang Cui raised her head and pouted at Li Qing

"Hey, let's go to the field to cut rice, you pack up the dishes and chopsticks, go over immediately, and bring Mengmeng to the ridge to play."

Li Qing was silent and did not answer, and continued to feed Mengmeng for breakfast.

"Hey~Yo! Why is she just like a mute, Ouyang, she usually does this? Didn't talk for a long time? The mouth is not sweet, the hands and feet are not diligent, and they can't do any work! I don't want to have a second child, hey! ”

After a while, Ouyang father and son wore straw hats, towels around their necks, carried large teacups, and held sickles, followed Jiang Cui and walked towards the rice field.

Li Qing washed the pots and dishes, put on a straw hat and towel, hugged Mengmeng, and walked to the intersection, I really wanted to go back to the store directly!

Ren Ren still went to the rice field, brought a small bench, let Meng Meng wear a big hat, wash a big apple, and bit off a small piece of it, to Meng Meng, Meng Meng sat in the shade of a tree on the ridge of the field and slowly bit the apple.

Ouyang smiled and teased Meng Meng,

"Meng Meng is coming, is the apple sweet or not?"

Li Qing picked up the sickle and first saw how Ouyang and the others cut the rice, and cut it like them.

The farming expert is really not given for nothing, Jiang Cui and Ouyang father and son, wielding a sickle, clicking, moving forward quickly, similar to a machine, I don't know how tired.

Li Qing held a few rice plants in his left hand, and with his right hand, he quickly pulled the sickle from front to back, cut off the few rice plants he was holding in his left hand, and spread them out on the rice stakes behind him.

The scorching sun shines on the head,

The straw swept Li Qing's sweaty face from time to time, and there were several acres of rice fields at home, which would take at least two days to be cut.

Jiang Cui cut it twice, picked up the teacup and drank tea, looked up at the sky and said

"The weather has been good for the past two days, and the harvested rice is put in the field to dry, and we can pick it up at the door of the house the day after tomorrow."

After two days of harvesting rice,

On the third day, I began to bundle up the rice, pick it home, close to the rice handle in the roadside field, carry it directly to the roadside flatbed, pull it back to the door, close to the rice handle in the field at the door, and go home directly by hand.

Jiang Cui, who had a big shoulder and a round waist, picked up six big rice handles with a rope, strode forward, and saw Li Qing tied two small rice handles, and they couldn't leave the ground.

"Hey, what are you doing in the fields?! Look at how many trips we've picked up! I see that you usually eat a lot of food! Where's the food?! ”

Walking past Li Qing, his eyes widened, and he suddenly waved his hand and pushed Li Qing away, Li Qingzheng bent over and didn't notice Jiang Cui's this, and he fell into the field.

Meng Meng stood up on the ridge and also fell, crying loudly.

"Mom~Mom~"

"Mengmeng, what's wrong?"

Li Qing stepped to Mengmeng's side with an arrow step, picked up Mengmeng, stared at Jiang Cui with two eyes, and bit his lip with his teeth.

Jiang Cui paused at first, and then immediately pouted and said

"What do you want to do? Why are you staring at them so wide? You want to eat me!! Get out of the way! Grind grind, don't get in our way"

Jiang Cui said as he picked up the rice handle, held his head high, and strode towards the door.

Ouyang Lei was at the end of the field, tying the rice handle without saying a word.

Ouyang picked the rice and sent it to the door, drew the rope, and walked to the rice field again, carrying the flat shoulder and the rope on his shoulder, walked from the door to the field, and when he arrived in front of Li Qing, he saw that Meng Meng was holding her mouth and there were tears on her little face.

Ouyang smiled and reached out to touch Meng Meng's face

"Meng Meng,

Why are you crying? Finished eating the apples? Hungry, right? Let mom take you home first, Li Qing, it's too hot, Mengmeng can't sit on the ridge for a long time, take Mengmeng home"

"Ouyang, I'm back on the street,"

"What? Okay, suddenly want to go back to the street? A big family is working, we plant so many fields, we look at these few days all year round, Grandma Meng speaks like that, she is used to her loud voice, for decades, how can you let her change all at once? Just stay at home for a few days, and forbearance will soon pass? ”

Jiang Cui turned her head and glared at Li Qing fiercely.
