"How long do you think we'll have to finish it?" Liu Man'er sat on the small bench, leaning softly on Ye Yuan, during this time, as soon as she went home, she felt that she was already a boneless person, so she wanted to lie down, and she didn't want to do anything.

Although Ye Yuan was serious during the day and never did anything out of line, but when he saw that Liu Man'er was too tired, he didn't push her away, so he let her lean on and replied, "It will take five or six days." ”

"Five or six more days?" Liu Man'er really wanted to cry, she was just busy for three days, and she already wanted to die, and he told her that it would take five or six days?

"Our family land is still small, and some families have more than ten or twenty acres, at least they have to be busy for a month." Ye Yuan said again.

"Ha, ha, ha, ha......" Liu Man'er showed a smile that was more ugly than crying, she decided that if she still farmed next year, she would definitely persuade the Fang family not to plant this kind of harvest to be harvested, especially this kind of harvest in the summer, she just wanted to sleep well in the summer, but she was so tired.

"Today and tomorrow, we will harvest the soybeans, and then the rice will be harvested, and then the peanuts will not be so busy." Ye Yuan said.

"Oh." Liu Man'er nodded, Fang Shi cooked the meal, and Ye He helped bring out the meal.

During this time, she was too tired, and the meals she came home were all cooked by Fang and Ye He, although she was a little reluctant to go, but she really didn't want to move, so she could only eat ready-made.

What's more, she didn't want to eat either, so she just asked Ye Yuan to give her a bowl of gruel and drank it slowly.

"Man'er, you eat more, I've been tired and thin these days." Fang's let Liu Man'er serve rice.

Liu Man'er shook her head, "It's too hot, I don't have an appetite." ”

"Let's eat some, I'm going to be busy in the afternoon, I fried some sauerkraut for you, don't you like to eat it?" Fang Shi said and pushed the sauerkraut bowl to Liu Man'er, Liu Man'er sandwiched two chopsticks, it was very delicious, but she still didn't have much appetite.

"Mother, eat more by yourself, I don't want to eat." Liu Man'er shook her head, "I'll just drink porridge, drink more and have the same strength." ”

"Then how can you do it, how can you drink porridge to fill your stomach? What do you like to eat, tell your mother later, and I'll make it for you. Seeing that Liu Man'er was still so listless, Fang said again: "You haven't been like this before, have you?" Is it sick, do you want to take her to see the doctor later? ”

"No, no." When Liu Man'er heard Fang say this, she hurriedly sat up straight and said, "I'm all lazy, and it's a shame to go to the doctor." ”

"I see you're really tired, so why don't you take a break in the afternoon." Fang Clan also spoke.

"I'm fine, I'll just lie down on the cool bed later, I'll be over later in the afternoon." Liu Man'er said.

This cool bed, almost every household will have a bed, that is, a bed made of bamboo, it is not easy to transfer heat, it is cool to sleep, Fang moved it from the attic and put it by the window of the hall, every day Liu Man'er will go up to lie down and rest.

"Okay then." Fang's family was not reluctant, she just said casually, after all, the work in this place was really rushed.

After eating, Liu Man'er lay on the cool bed, she slept in it and occupied the small half alone, Ye He was young, and she was tired enough these days, so she also lay down to sleep, but Fang was still busy feeding Ye Tianchen to eat.

Fortunately, Ye Tianchen could also walk during this time, so Fang Shi carried him to the field with a basket, and put him in the shade every day, he was very well-behaved, playing alone in the shade every day, and occasionally helping Liu Man'er to deliver water, handkerchiefs or something.

Ye Yuan also sat on the edge of the bed to rest for a while, he took Liu Man'er's hand and asked her not to go if she was tired, and tell him if she had something.

Liu Man'er nodded slightly, but she didn't want him to be too tired, so she decided to take a break or go over.

Ye Yuan probably rested for half an hour, then took the sickle and went out to work again, he thought that if he did more, Liu Man'er and the Fang family could do less.

The Fang family cleaned up the house, handed over Ye Tianchen to Liu Man'er, and went out as well, Liu Man'er and Ye He were lying on the bed to rest.

When she woke up, every lazy nerve in her bones was clamoring for her not to get up, not to get up, but when she opened her eyes and touched her side, even Ye He got up, leaving Ye Tianchen looking at her with wide eyes.

I'm ashamed, it's not as good as a child.

Liu Man'er shook her head, gritted her teeth and got up from the bed, then mixed some sugar water, put it in a tin pot, hugged Ye Tianchen, and walked to the ground.

Poured a bowl of water for everyone, and then worked hard for a while, all the soybeans in this piece were recovered, today because Ye Yuan came early, so it was quite early to finish work, and there was still a piece of land, Ye Yuan proposed to say that it would be collected again tomorrow, and the Fang family also nodded in agreement, and the family came back early.

Seeing that the weather was still early, Liu Man'er asked Ye Yuan to help her go to the town's pharmacy to buy some mint leaves, the weather was too hot, and these mint leaves were excellent for both soaking in water and bathing.

What's more, the four little guys in the family all had prickly heat, and when the prickly heat burst, it was itchy and uncomfortable, and Liu Fusheng and Ye Tianchen were the most serious, and they had already been caught.

When he came back in the evening, Ye Yuan went back with Ye Feng and Liu Fusheng, and now it was a busy farming, and the master of the private school said that he would take a month's farm leave.

Liu Man'er was very happy to hear it, there were two more people, and she could be more relaxed, although they were just children, but they could also help with a lot of things.

Especially Ye Feng, who is older, can do almost anything.

So, the next day, Ye Yuan let Liu Man'er rest at home.

Liu Man'er thought about it and agreed, although she said that she was resting at home, but in fact, where was there time to rest when the farm was busy? It's just easier than going to the ground.

Liu Man'er cooks at home, washes clothes, hammers soybeans, and takes care of children, but she doesn't have any free time, but she can bask in less sun.

During this time, when she went to work in the field, Liu Man'er was afraid of tanning, wearing a hat and a veil, and wrapped herself tightly, so she was a little hotter than others.

This rare day at home, Liu Man'er boiled mint water for them, added some sugar, it was sweet and cold, but it was a light and good drink.

After that, she washed clothes, cleaned the yard, moved the soybeans to the middle of the yard and spread them out to dry, and when she was done with all this, it was not early, and as soon as the meal was ready, Ye Yuan and they came back.

Seeing them come back, Liu Man'er first poured mint water for them, then fetched water for them to wash their hands and faces, and then took a handkerchief to help Ye Yuan wipe his sweat, Ye Yuan was quite satisfied with this, and said, "You can cook at home in the future." ”

"Let's come in turn, tomorrow my mother will be at home, and the day after tomorrow Xiaohe." It's an easy job at home, and Liu Man'er can't be selfish and monopolistic.

During the meal, when asked how Ye Feng and Liu Fusheng felt about their work today, both of them smiled stupidly and kept silent.

"Although you are a scholar, you can't be diligent and indiscriminate, and it's good to do some work occasionally, isn't this master still taking a special holiday for you to work." Liu Man'er said.

"Yes, sister-in-law, you're right." Ye Feng hurriedly responded, "We all know this, sister-in-law doesn't need to persuade us specially." ”

"Sister, I can help with all these tasks." Liu Fusheng also nodded.

"That's good, I'm worried that you will be stupid in reading, and I think that everything is inferior only to high reading, this kind of thinking is unacceptable." Liu Man'er said again.

"Sister-in-law, don't worry, Xiao Feng won't think like this." Ye Feng replied politely.

"Fusheng won't either." Liu Fusheng also shook his head, and said to Liu Man'er mysteriously, "But sister, let me tell you, many of our classmates don't work at home." ”

"Then you don't want to learn from them." Liu Man'er said, "Anyway, it's useless to study like this, you have to apply what you have learned, I will assign you a homework, you have worked for a few days, and then you will make a poem." ”

"I can't write poetry." Liu Fusheng looked at Liu Man'er pitifully, he hadn't fully learned the words now.

"Then you can ask your third brother for advice." Liu Man'er said, "You can recite a poem or a famous quote from your predecessors. ”

"Okay." Liu Fusheng agreed with a bitter face.

Ye Feng thought about it and nodded.

There was no need to work in the afternoon, Liu Man'er lay down until late and got up, and then she was busy hammering beans.

This soybeans are dried in the sun, many of them will burst open, at this time, take a wooden hammer to beat vigorously, many soybeans will fall, Liu Man'er this year generously spread a piece of hemp cloth in the yard, when the time will fall on this hemp cloth for a day, you can put it away.

Fang's is still a little reluctant, in previous years, it was directly put in the yard to dry, but in that case, it would be too difficult to collect, many times, with a broom, even the dust was swept up, after all, it was land, not marble floor or cement floor.

After putting on the linen, you only need to pull the four corners, and the soybeans will roll to the middle.

Of course, if you ignore that this linen cloth is three cents a foot, the village will be willing to give up the willows.

Anyway, in Liu Man'er's opinion, it can save trouble, why not use it? Anyway, it's not like you don't use it once, and it won't be wasted, but if you want to make clothes, wash and open it, and you can still use it.

Of course, Liu Man'er didn't plan to use this piece of linen cloth to make clothes, she just persuaded Fang Shi like this, she planned to use this cloth to dry things after she made it, and it would have been better to use nylon plastic to dry things, but unfortunately not.

In the evening, Ye Yuan and the others came back from work, Liu Man'er had already cleaned up the house, she cooked the meal, and waited for them to come back to eat.

After eating, they boiled hot water for a bath, and Liu Man'er put the mint leaves in the pot to boil, so that after taking a bath, let the wind blow, and the body was cold.

At night, everyone was in the courtyard to enjoy the shade, Liu Man'er asked Ye Feng to endorse, Ye Yuan and Fang listened carefully, and Ye Tianchen followed behind Ye He and Liu Fusheng, watching and catching fireflies.

The starry sky at night is so bright, and the cool breeze in the yard at night is not hot, Liu Man'er almost wants to sleep outside, but there are many mosquitoes outside, she is a body that attracts mosquitoes, and she can only fall asleep in the tent early.

But it's hot inside, especially after the mosquito net is closed, even if the doors and windows are opened, it's still a little stuffy.

Liu Man'er was lying alone, with a mat under her, barely bearable, but after Ye Yuan came in, she couldn't stand it, Ye Yuan's body was too hot, Liu Man'er shrank into the corner alone, but Ye Yuan wanted to come up.
