Aoki glanced at the speechless chrysanthemum, couldn't help laughing, and said, "If it's mixed with sugar, it's delicious." It's just no sugar. β
Zhang Huai hurriedly said to him: "I was about to tell you, but I always forgot." There's a big honeycomb in the woods on the hill over there, so let's go and smash it down and get some honey to eat. β
Chrysanthemum was overjoyed when she heard this, and her depressed mood immediately became happy because of the cucumber - this honey is added to the egg white, and the effect of making a mask is even better, besides, the honey is also delicious.
She thought about it and was a little worried, and said to the two, "Of course the honey is good." But if you get stung by a bee, isn't that a problem? Some bees are very poisonous. β
Zhang Huai saw that the chrysanthemum seemed to be very interested in this honey, and he was even more determined to pick the honeycomb.
He waved his hand and said, "As long as you are ready, you are not afraid, someone often does it." Wrap your head and face tightly with old clothes, put on a bamboo hat, pound off the honeycomb and cover it with something, and then get it back when the bees are gone. β
Aoki also said that Zhao San had done it.
"You don't remember, last year, he sent ten catties of dried fish, and a small jar of honey, one catty."
Chrysanthemum nodded hurriedly, that time Zhao San was to thank her for saving the little stone, and she gave away something, it turned out that the honey was obtained by pounding the honeycomb.
So Zhang Huai and Aoki made a plan to pound the honeycomb tomorrow evening, and then he stepped on the moonlight and returned to the village amid the noise of frogs chirping all over the fields.
Here, chrysanthemums re-cut cucumbers, light oil lamps and let Aoki help paste; After washing my face, I applied egg whites again.
In the evening of the next day, Zhang Huai and Aoki smashed down the big honeycomb. Even though he was fully prepared, Aoki was stung by a bee through his clothes, and a large bag was swollen on his arm.
Chrysanthemum divides the honey into two parts, and the other part is for Zhang Huai to take home.
Zhang Huai don't. He saw that Chrysanthemum seemed to like the honey very much, and refused to take half of itβnot many miles in all.
Chrysanthemum said to him: "Take this thing back and let your aunt eat it, and it will be considered your filial piety; Otherwise, where would I be embarrassed to leave alone? Didn't you see that I kept a lot of them? β
Zhang Huai saw that she insisted, so he took the honey home.
Chrysanthemum is smeared with egg white mixed with honey on the face, which feels much more comfortable, and the face is not as tight and uncomfortable as just applying egg whites.
Yang saw that she was using honey to paint her face, and he didn't ask if it was useful, so he happily said that the honey was kept for her to paint her face. (See the timely update, just read 10,000 volumes)
Seeing her hopeful look, Chrysanthemum sighed in her heart.
After a while, people began to harvest rice, and those happy but tiring days made Chrysanthemum experience a more difficult life than rice planting.
Every day before dawn, my father and brother would go down to the field to cut and threshk rice. There was no rice threshing machine, and the rice was completely beaten down in the bucket by manpower.
Under the scorching sun, they sweated like rain to pick a load of rice home, but their faces were full of joy of harvest.
Chrysanthemum is busy with her feet on the ground, feeding pigs and chickens is already a trivial matter, rushing to do laundry and cooking, and taking care of the rice that has been sunburned in the yard, and from time to time turning over the sun, even the little black dog - it should be considered a big black dog - knows how to push the chicken that eats rice out of the yard.
However, when the family came to the end of the evening, the chrysanthemum served a sumptuous meal, and the family relaxed and ate leisurely in the courtyard, which was a good feeling!
Zheng Changhe talked and laughed loudly, tired after a day, at this time bathed in the breeze and bright moon, let go of his belly and ate three bowls of rice, he still has to eat.
Chrysanthemum hurriedly stopped him from saying that he would eat it again after a while, otherwise it would not be good to eat too much.
He leaned on the cool bed and hummed comfortably.
Who said that happiness is actually very simple, it is to sit in the shade of a cool breeze after tiredness, drink a bowl of boiled water and eat a bowl of simple meals.
Chrysanthemum felt that this was too true.
She didn't let her father eat more, but she ate three bowls of rice herself, although it wasn't so full, but it was three bowls anyway!
Aoki looked at her dumbfounded and asked, "How can you eat so many miles?" "My sister used to eat two bowls of rice at most.
Yang happily stopped Aoki and said, "If you have a meal, you have to say that it's a good thing to be able to eat." Alas! Chrysanthemum is tired of it, right? β
Chrysanthemum said embarrassedly: "I'm so busy, I feel empty in my stomach, and I feel more solid after eating three bowls of rice." β
She felt that she had a bad appetite in the past, although she also had a bad health, but more, she was still not tired enough and not hard enough.
When I was so tired and busy, I didn't think about anything, and my life suddenly turned to a very simple need, that is, to work and eat. Working is naturally tiring, but the food eaten every day also feels extraordinarily fragrant.
Zheng Changhe laughed, and even said that it was such a reason.
"In the old winter, I fell my leg and couldn't go anywhere at home, I did less work, and I didn't eat badly, but I couldn't feel as comfortable as I was now. You say that this person still has to keep busy, only this day has flavor and hope! β
Yang Shi glanced at him and said, "That's because you are not blessed, and only rich people don't think so!" β
Chrysanthemum smiled: "Rich people always eat well, and when they eat, they are definitely not as happy as their father; They have a good life, and they definitely don't have a father who is tired for a day to rest and relax. - Something, the more difficult it is to get, and when he gets it, he will be extraordinarily open"
Aoki smiled, "Hello! That's it! β
No matter how comfortable it is, I will still be tired the next day.
That's the disadvantage of having a lot of fields. People have been busy for some days, and the rice in the fields has been harvested into the warehouse, but the Chrysanthemum family is still busy. There was a rainstorm in the middle for two days, and it was even more busy.
No one is born rich and noble, saying that they can't get tired or can't do anything, they are not forced to the head.
When the rainstorm came, thick dark clouds hovered overhead, the wind was fierce, rolling up leaves and weeds flying everywhere, and the people working in the fields were accidentally blown away from their straw hats, and they followed behind for a long time before snatching them back.
The terrible scene of "black clouds crushing the city and wanting to destroy it" made the people who dried the rice even more panicked.
Chrysanthemum desperately grabbed the small arms and legs of the rice in the yard, and suddenly burst out with unprecedented strength, and after a while, the rice in the yard was gathered together, ready to pile up in two piles and cover the straw.
The wind blew the face towel against her face, almost making it impossible for her to breathe; If you turn around, you will be blown up again.
As he was thinking, he suddenly saw Zhang Huai and Aoki each picking up a load of rice and hurrying back, so that the green tendons on their necks swelled up.
It turned out that Zhang Huai's family had less land, and when he was done, he hurried to help Aoki, and even Liu Ershun and Zhao San came to help.
Seeing Chrysanthemum rushing to gather rice, Zhang Huai hurriedly rested his burden into the house, grabbed the rice board in Chrysanthemum's hand one step faster than Aoki, and said distressedly: "You go to rest, let me come with your brother."
Chrysanthemum saw that two big laborers were coming, and relaxed her nerves for a while, and she felt that the power on her body was like what the myth said, and the prescribed time limit for attaching divine power had arrived, and she turned from extreme excitement to malaise and slowly returned to the state of ordinary people.
Chrysanthemum didn't return to her usual state, she only felt that her hands and feet were weak, and she collapsed on the stool and leaned against the door frame and didn't want to move.
Turning his head to look at the two sturdy young men who were busy in the courtyard, he gathered the rice into two piles and covered them with straw, and suddenly felt very solid in his heart, and his broad shoulders made her infinitely dependent, and there was a kind of stability that was cared for.
In the countryside, there is no strong labor at home, and it is impossible to live that day.
Aoki and Zhang Huai put away the rice and entered the house, and when they saw Chrysanthemum slumped on the stool, her shoulders slumped and her spirit was sluggish, she hurriedly asked, "Chrysanthemum, are you okay?" "I was tired of my sister just now.
Chrysanthemum said weakly, "I'm fine." It's about taking a break and taking a breath. Pour yourselves water and drink it. Brother, what's going on in the fields? β
She thought to herself, "If you can't add more to this field, you can't buy it with money." In this small place, it is difficult to find someone to rent seeds. Let's feed more pigs! One pig is fed, two pigs are also fed, as long as there are no more than ten pigs, it must be able to support it.
Zhang Huai saw that she was tired and alive, and she still cared about the field, so she really didn't know what to say, so she hurriedly said to her: "You rest, don't worry about us." There were also people in the fields who came to help, and Uncle Zhao and Liu Ershun both came. They should be back in a moment, and they won't be drenched in the rain. β
Aoki also told her to worry about it, and she and her father were in the field, and even her mother didn't go to the field in the afternoon, so she helped cook at home so that she could rest.
Then, sure enough, a group of people came back before the heavy rain fell, and the houses full of rice were crowded when they came up.
Zhao San smiled and said: "Brother Changhe, look at your house, it makes people happy when they see it." With so much rice, you're better off this year! β
The house was so full of rice that there was nowhere to put it, and even the kitchen was a lot of it, and it was a bit of a mess, but in the eyes of the croppers, it was only kind.
Zheng Changhe looked at the rice and said, "You think beautifully." Alas! The rice is not hot at home, and it will not be sent away in a few days. The more the land pays, the more taxes you pay. β
Zhao San comforted: "You still have some left." We don't have much left. Fortunately, it saves pigs and can earn more income. β
The most people looked at the mountain of acorns, and they became more and more excited, and almost saw the pigs growing up as if they were blowing.
Let's talk about the autumn harvest, and the rain will gradually stop - the summer rain comes and goes as fast as it comes!
Chrysanthemum rested for a while, got up and went to the kitchen to cook.
Zhang Huai saw her dragging her heavy legs, so he couldn't wait to go to the kitchen to help. But that will definitely not work, no man will go to the stove, at most help to light the fire. Besides, if he runs to help Chrysanthemum light the fire, others won't be surprised to die, what will he say then?
However, Yang hurriedly went to the kitchen to help, which made his heart feel better.
Whether you are busy or tired, for the sake of the recovered rice, this life will be fulfilling.
However, within a few days, when the tax collectors of the Yamen of Qinghui County came down, the rice that the farmers had just recovered was transported to Xiatangji by a load and a truckload.
Looking at the spacious and clear room, Chrysanthemum was not happy, but felt that her heart and liver hurt, and all she had transported away was white rice.
This place is so beautiful, and the villagers are so hardworking, why are they still so poor, this is not the answer.
Originally, the output was not high, and once the tax was paid, there was nothing left. This is only the summer tax, and the autumn tax will be paid until October.
It's a shame that this is still Hu County's order, and he doesn't add much apportionment; If there is a corrupt official, do you still need to think about what life will be! Read 10,000 volumes
