The wheat in the field is ripe, and it looks golden from afar, and the crops are happy to usher in a good harvest.

The school gave a week's vacation for the children to go home to help harvest the wheat, which is called "wheat vacation". In addition, each student is also arranged to work and study, take advantage of the wheat harvest time to pick up wheat grains in the field, and hand over a basket of wheat grains after the holiday.

As soon as the children heard that they were on a week's holiday, they all shouted and jumped excitedly, and Zhou Xiaoyun was infected by this atmosphere and cheered.

At this time, the life of the school is comfortable, there is very little homework, there is basically no homework, one exam a semester, and a week off even when the wheat is harvested, how can it be so hard to be a student later! Every day homework and monthly exams, children become myopic early, and learning has become a heavy burden.

Fang Wenchao instructed Zhou Xiaoyun to practice the harmonica more at home, and it is estimated that Zhou Xiaoyun will not be able to practice the accordion well in the short term. The harmonica is simple and easy to practice, and you can practice the music before the "June 1st" Children's Day.

Zhou Xiaoyun agreed, at this time she also knew that Fang Wenchao intended to let her participate in the county's Children's Day, she was quite interested in the competition, how could she have such an opportunity when she was mediocre before.

Now that there is such an opportunity, Zhou Xiaoyun is also very happy. Zhou Xiaoyun feels that she doesn't necessarily have to win an award, participating in such an event is a rare life experience for her, and it seems that she has to practice hard in the next time.

Zhou Xiaoyun's family has a total of five or six acres of land, and if Zhou Guoqiang and Zhao Yuzhen were busy cutting wheat in the field, it would take five or six days to finish cutting all of them.

But Zhou Guoqiang's pork business is still booming, and he is really reluctant to stop. The couple discussed the bazaar, and Zhou Guoqiang went alone, and Zhao Yuzhen went to work in the field. After the bazaar retreated, Zhou Guoqiang went to work in the field again, so that he would not delay making money.

The plan is good, but when will all this wheat be harvested? Zhao Yuzhen simply asked her younger brother to help.

Zhou Xiaoyun's uncle Zhao Gang had a partner at home and did not go out to work this year. The family's wheat harvest was finished last week. Listening to Zhao Yuzhen say that he would come to help, he came early in the morning on a bicycle.

The sister and brother are very affectionate when they meet, the two of them are close in age, and they have a good relationship, and they don't feel tired when they chat while doing things.

At that time, the wheat was harvested with a sickle with a wooden handle, and the sickle was curved and fast, that is, it was necessary to bend down and cut the wheat along the heel of the wheat. After a busy day, it makes people's backache and backache.

The children are playing in the fields, and they can't do much if they say they are helping. The scythe is so fast, no one is worried about the child's hands, in case the leg is cut, it will be bad. However, it is still possible to help hold the wheat pole. At that time, the wheat harvest was cut with the wheat stalks, and when the wheat grains were taken off, the wheat stalks were kept at home for cooking.

Dabao picked up a bundle of wheat stalks from the field and quickly sent them to the flatbed truck at the edge of the field, running happily one by one. Xiaobao hugged a lot less, and Erya held a few sticks, saying that it was better to do things than to play.

Zhou Xiaoyun's task is to do a good job in logistics, and he has to be responsible for taking care of the family and feeding chickens, ducks and pigs. When the sun was high, Zhou Xiaoyun boiled hot water at home, poured it into a large and sturdy green and quiet military kettle, and handed it to the edge of the field for adults to drink to quench their thirst.

When Zhou Xiaoyun went home, he took Xiaobao and Erya, who were tired of making trouble in the field, home, Dabao, the boy who has kept up with the thirteen or fourteen boys, and he can still do something to help in the field, Zhou Xiaoyun thought to himself that he should let him be here.

At noon, Zhou Guoqiang came back with a tricycle. He instructed Zhou Xiaoyun to burn the leftover two catties of pork for his busy brother-in-law, and hurried to the field to cut wheat after speaking.

The kitchen of Zhou Xiaoyun's house is a home-built pot stove with two large iron pots. Zhou Xiaoyun cooked half a pot of rice in one of the pots, and when the rice was ready, he went to cut the pork to burn it.

Zhou Xiaoyun was a little uncomfortable with the knife at home, the iron knife was very heavy, and her right arm was sore after a few minutes. Reluctantly cut the pork into boxy pieces, Dabao was not at home and no one was lighting the fire, so Zhou Xiaoyun used straw to lead a few branches, and within a while, the flames rose to the ground.

The oil in the pot crackled, Zhou Xiaoyun put the pork in the pot and quickly stir-fried it a few times, and when the light-colored meat changed color, he poured some soy sauce to color the meat, and then added chopped green onions, ginger, sugar, salt and sour, and the movements were fluent and skillful without stagnation, if there were adults next to him, Zhou Xiaoyun would not dare to behave like this.

Especially in front of Zhao Yuzhen, Zhou Xiaoyun deliberately acted clumsy. You have to hide something, and if you can do it too much, it's too much like a child.

In general, Zhou Xiaoyun's concealment and low-key are relatively successful. Zhao Yuzhen only felt that her daughter was well-behaved and sensible and a good helper, but she was not suspicious.

The radish roast in the pot was full of aroma, and the greedy Xiaobao and Erya were "hooked".

Erya pulled the corner of the busy Zhou Xiaoyun's clothes, and the child's voice was very cute and beautiful: "Sister, I'm hungry." ”

Zhou Xiaoyun looked at Erya's coquettish appearance and felt warm in her heart, perhaps it was empathy, she always unconsciously treated Erya as a Niuniu to love: "Okay, Erya, I'll serve you some food first, don't worry." ”

Not to be outdone, Xiaobao squeezed over: "Sister, I want to eat too." ”

"Okay, you two eat together."

Zhou Xiaoyun served a bowl of rice to Xiaobao and Erya, and used a large bowl to eat a bowl full of meat and radish.

At this time, green radishes are the best to eat, and radishes are planted in the small vegetable garden in front of Zhou Xiaoyun's house. The green radish is sweet and crispy when eaten raw, and the water is many, and it is very flavorful, fragrant and soft when burned with meat, and the fragrance that Xiaobao eats! I ate a big bowl of rice, and half a bowl of radish and meat before I stopped.

At this time, the rice bowl was a large white porcelain bowl, which was not beautiful but was durable and cheap. However, when people's living conditions were better, they were gradually eliminated and replaced by small bowls with beautiful patterns printed on them.

Xiaobao was very surprised that he could eat such a big bowl of rice, and the little blushing began to have meat when he pinched it, it seems that the appetite for food can be cultivated!
