Chapter 36: A Good Harvest
"Xiaoyan may not come back!"
At dinner in the evening, Meng Zhen asked about Liu Jiajia, and Jiajia was very depressed and said: "That Meng Xiangshun also scolded too much, I didn't know that there were so many foul words, she also threatened to go to the Education Commission to sue Xiaoyan, Xiaoyan cried on the spot." Actually, at the beginning, we were not used to beating people, but the teacher here said that this is the school's practice, if you don't hit some parents still think that you don't care, and this is Xiaoyan's first time beating, and the result is such treatment. Alas, I called her yesterday and asked her when she would come back, and she didn't say anything, just said that she was on a blind date at home, and if the object was suitable, she would get engaged! ”
"Blind date? Betrothal? Isn't it, that's too fast?! ”
Meng Zhen was a little surprised, this is the legendary "flash marriage"?
"Hehe, it's popular now," there is another reason, Liu Jiajia didn't say it, when Liu Yumei scolded people that day, she also scolded Sister Meng, saying that she lived with an old girl, and she was careful to become an old girl, and she couldn't marry or anything for the rest of her life.
"We have a senior sister, and she is a flash marriage. She was married on New Year's Day, and I saw her a few days ago, and she was more than four months pregnant. In fact, this is also very good, while each other is still in the sweet period, hurry up and get married, otherwise after a long time, the shortcomings of both parties will be exposed, and it will be easy to quarrel and break up all day long. got married early, with the responsibility of marriage and the ties of family, even if you feel that the other party has shortcomings, you can tolerate it! ”
"Well, that makes sense!"
After dinner, neither of them went online, but hugged pillows and chatted on the sofa. Liu Jiajia remembered that Meng Zhen suddenly stepped out that day and calmed everyone down, which was amazing.
"By the way, Sister Meng, your kick that day was too handsome, can you teach me?"
"Okay, it depends on whether you can stick to it, footwork, I'll have such a side kick, hehe, boxing can teach you something else."
"No, Sister Meng, do you know Chinese kung fu?" That side kick seems to be taekwondo, and now many people will "haha" kick twice, but Chinese kung fu is a bit mysterious.
Unexpectedly, Sister Meng, who is quiet and quiet, still has martial arts.
"Well, I participated in a martial arts club when I was in college," Meng Zhen recalled that carefree life, and his face was full of aftertaste: "Speaking of which, our motivation for learning martial arts is very impure, hehe." At that time, it was the 'Korean Wave' that hit, and we especially liked a Korean drama called "Tianqiao Fengyun", Zhao Yuanjun in Super Fan. ”
Meng Zhen saw Liu Jiajia's dazed look, and said with a smile: "Maybe your generation hasn't seen this film, but we liked it very much at that time." Brother Yuan Jun, played by Han Jae-seok, is affectionate and righteous and dares to take responsibility, sticks a knife in his friends, and waits silently for his lover, he is simply the best man in his ideals. It just so happened that when I was a sophomore, there was a physical education teacher in the sports school, and after we took a class, we found that this Teacher Zhu was actually eight points like Han Jae-seok, which simply drove a group of wolf girls crazy, and chased after Teacher Zhu all day long. ”
Meng Zhen took a sip of tea, Liu Jiajia looked at Sister Meng's sweetness, and felt a little funny, it turned out that she also had a time to worship idols.
"Although Mr. Zhu is a bit of an idol, his kung fu is definitely powerful. Later, he founded a martial arts club at the school to teach Chinese kung fu. At that time, we were just attracted to handsome guys, and we all signed up together. But what is needed to practice is perseverance, we have an impure purpose in ourselves, and by the time we graduate from college, there are only a few of our 303 sisters and other people who are really interested in martial arts left in the club. It is not that we have perseverance to persevere, but that Zhao Na in our dormitory was born in a military family and has been martial arts since she was a child, according to her, Teacher Zhu teaches authentic kung fu. Under the encouragement of Teacher Zhu and the encouragement of Zhao Na, we practiced for three years. ”
"Oh, what are you practicing? I think your kick looks like taekwondo! ”
"Yes, my side kick is a kickboxing move. But we learned authentic Chinese kung fu, hehe, it's funny to say, we started to see handsome guys, we didn't know what the teacher taught and followed along. It wasn't until last year that I watched a very popular movie that I realized what kung fu I had practiced for nearly ten years was......"
"Wait, let me guess, it can't be Wing Chun from Ip Man, right?!" Liu Jiajia said a little excitedly that she watched this movie last year, and then read the introduction on the Internet, it is said that Wing Chun itself was created by women, and it is very suitable for girls to practice, and she has always wanted to learn. It's a pity that after searching for a long time, the streets of Quancheng are full of people teaching taekwondo and yoga, and there are no training classes in this area at all.
"The answer is correct, we didn't let go after graduation, just like Chen Xue said, don't ask for being able to bully others with force, but for self-protection. After coming to Zhoujiazhuang, I had more time, and I began to resume practicing every day! ”
There is another reason, I don't know if it is because she eats too many vegetables in the manor, or because of the mysterious "ginseng fruit", her physical strength is getting better and better, and her hearing and sense have become very agile. When I practiced again, I felt that my strength and flexibility had increased a lot. The kick that day was also beyond her expectations, usually she can kick things over is good, but I didn't expect that one foot can actually kick such a thick wooden handle off.
"Wow, that's great, I've always wanted to learn it, but unfortunately there's no place to teach it. Sister Meng, my good sister, you have to teach me! ”
"No problem, you have to go to class in the morning and don't have time, in the afternoon, I'll teach you every afternoon!"
"Wow......"
"Boom—" the harvester worked in the wheat field.
Meng Zhen has always seen the harvest scenes described by literati in literary works, but the joy of the harvest cannot be felt. At this time, she stood on the ridge of her wheat field, watching the harvester harvest in the golden wheat field, and the indescribable happiness filled the new house - this is my wheat, which I planted with my own hands!
"Meng Zhengu, this year is a bumper harvest!"
Meng Xianglei took a few sacks and waited for the harvester to finish cutting to help load the wheat. Zheng Jian originally said that he could arrive yesterday, but the unit that left the company dragged on and did not pay the settlement salary, and the matter was not dealt with, and it is estimated that he will not be able to come until tomorrow. Therefore, Meng Zhen still called Meng Xianglei over, anyway, now that the land is out, he is okay when he is idle at home. Didn't the village chief also say it, if you have something to say, you're welcome!
"Hehe, yes, it's very exciting to look at, is it directly transported to the yard to dry after cutting!"
Meng Zhen had no experience, and asked Meng Xianglei in a low voice, the yard at the head of the village should be the place where wheat is dried.
"That's right, do you sell it to the acquisition company or keep it for yourself?" Although Meng Xianglei has not done much, he also helped the family transport food during the wheat holiday.
"En, I won't sell mine if I don't have much, keep some for myself, and then give some to my family and friends!"
Grind the wheat you grow into flour, steam steamed buns, hand-rolled noodles, wrap dumplings and scallion pancakes, oh, by the way, you have to keep some wheat kernels, you can make wheat kernel rice, just thinking about it, Meng Zhen drooled.
"Okay, anyway, Liu Jiaji also has grain processing, and the processing fee is not expensive, just let Xiao Si'er help transport it over when it is sunburned." Meng Zhengu, when our vegetable garden is on scale, let's buy a car too. The restaurant is to pull the food by itself, but if we go to takeout, it is inconvenient to have no car! ”
Looking at the fourth child, he is only a graduate of a secondary school, but he has a long working time, and now his family has bought a small truck, which is very convenient for pulling grain and buying fertilizer.
"Xianglei, it's no problem to buy a car, can you change your title? Your name is 'Meng Zhengu', why do I always sound like 'enoki mushroom'?! ”
"Hehe, isn't that your age, don't you call your aunt, what's your name? Call my sister, my dad will definitely not do it! ”
Meng Xianglei smiled evilly, he was seven or eight years younger than Meng Zhen, how could he become a nephew? Although, in the countryside, regardless of age, even if it is a child who can just walk, you have to call grandpa when you are older. However, looking at Meng Zhen's apple face, his aunt couldn't be called.
"Don't, don't call me sister, just call me Meng Zhen, okay!" Meng Zhen saw that a ridge of land had been cut, and she hurriedly beckoned Meng Xianglei to load grain together.
"Master, hard work, smoke a cigarette!" There are still a lot of Zhonghua I bought last time, Meng Zhen took a box and handed it to the driver, although he was paid, but it was also appropriate to invite someone to smoke a cigarette.
"Thank you, girl, for your wheat harvest is good. Generally, this acre of land will harvest a maximum of eight or nine hundred catties, and this year's spring cold is serious, and the wheat around us has been affected. But not only does your wheat ripen early, but it also yields a lot. I estimate that you can harvest at least 1,000 catties of more than one acre of land, what a bumper harvest! ”
The driver took the cigarette, didn't smoke it, looked at the package, was in a good mood, put the cigarette away, and saw Meng Zhen and Meng Xianglei holding their pockets to pick up the good wheat grains.
"Hehe, it's okay!"
Meng Zhen watched the golden wheat grains flow into his pocket, and the satisfaction in his heart became even stronger, this is the harvest.
After a while, a sack was filled, and then Meng Xianglei took another sack and continued to fill it. After loading, the harvester began to work again, and it didn't take long for Meng Zhen's wheat field to be harvested, and all the wheat grains were loaded, and there were eleven bags, which was more than 1,100 catties.
Meng Zhen looked at the grain piled up into a hill, and the beauty in his heart, hehe, we also have surplus grain at home.
"Yo, Meng Zhen, a bumper harvest!"
Meng Fanhao also walked over, the harvester in the field is helping to clean up the bellflowers, according to the practice of the village, the bellflowers are to be burned, but Meng Zhen felt that you can use the bellflower to weave some small baskets and the like, so he asked the master to help cut it down first and pile it in the ground.
When Village Chief Meng saw bags of wheat piled up on the side of the road, he couldn't help but admire: How can there be such a big gap between the same land and the same wheat seeds? !
"That's right, only after planting the land do you know what 'who knows the Chinese food, the grains are hard', but when all the harvest, I feel that the hard work and sweat of the past have been rewarded, hehe, I feel very happy!"
"Well, that's the joy of a good harvest!"
It seems that this Meng Zhen has a secret book, otherwise how can she plant something so good, today the countryside around Quancheng has suffered from the spring cold, and the yield has been reduced a little, but how can she still have a bumper harvest here?!
