For Ye Mo, carrying millet is easier than threshing grain.

Bags of millet, Ye Mo carried them back one by one.

"Xiao Ye, you will go home and take a bath after carrying this bag." The second uncle saw that Ye Mo was coming over again and shouted.

"Okay."

And when the millet was almost finished, the grain in the field was beaten with a bag of millet on top.

Ye Mo finished the last trip, Lin Xiaolin laid out the drying mat and was drying the millet.

"Are you done beating the grain?" Lin Xiaomian asked.

"It's almost over." Ye Mo dropped the grain: "Do you want me to help." ”

"No need, you hurry up and go back to take a shower and come over for dinner." Lin Xiaolin said.

"Okay." Ye Mo moved his arm.

Threshing is more tiring than picking fruit.

It was only after the morning that I had beaten the grain, and my body felt like it was prostration.

I went home and took a hot shower, then washed the clothes I had changed, dried them, and went back to my room to lie down for a while.

Xiaomian's parents have returned.

"Xiaoye?" Yun Xiulan shouted, thinking that Ye Mo was asleep.

Ye Mo sat up.

"I'm tired." Lin Shan asked with a smile.

"A little." Ye Mo said: "When will the millet be beaten at home? ”

"In the afternoon, the people from the threshing team came to see, and if it was cheap, they invited someone to fight." Lin Shan said.

During this time, bricklaying in Changzhu Village is ...... I have to rush to work, and I work overtime every day, which is quite tiring.

If you can ask someone to come over, if it's not too expensive, ask someone to call.

There are more than three acres on their side, and if they finish the fight by themselves, let alone take off a layer of skin.

"The lobsters in the field, have they all been caught?" Ye Mo asked.

"Not much. When you're done threshing the grain, clean it up again. Lin Shan walked in, handed Ye Mo a cigarette, and said, "We also engaged in rice and shrimp polyculture for the first year, and this yield is much lower than expected." ”

Ye Mo saw on the Internet that rice and shrimp polyculture, generally, one mu can harvest 160-200 catties of crayfish. But in reality, this is not the case.

It is very good to be able to harvest 100 catties of crayfish per mu.

Fortunately, the price of crayfish is good this year.

When they came to Kobayashi's house, they had already dried the millet.

Lin Xiaomian was helping to cook in the kitchen, and he heard the second aunt talking about Lin Xiaomian: "Your hair is dyed like a female second-rate child." ”

"Don't talk about me, I already know it's wrong, I'll go to the city in the afternoon and dye my hair back."

"This hair color you dye is really bad."

"Second aunt." Ye Mo went in and shouted.

"Hey." The second aunt answered and came out of the kitchen: "Sit down, the meal will be ready immediately." ”

At noon, an old hen was stewed, and the yam was stewed.

There are also bacon and sausages, stir-fried meat with lettuce, and stir-fried meat with local bamboo shoots......

Soil shoots, a type of bamboo that only grows bamboo shoots in the summer. The bamboo shoots are very bitter and need to be boiled and then washed with water before being used to fry the meat......

There was also fish caught last night, and a big pot of spicy crayfish.

After beating the grain all morning, Ye Mo felt exhausted.

Sitting down with a beer and eating crayfish feels more comfortable than ever before.

"You made this crayfish?" Ye Mo looked at Lin Xiaomian.

Lin Xiaomian nodded: "It's delicious." ”

"It's delicious." Ye Mo said, looking at her hair.

Anyway, it's a bit unaccustomed.

With a little pink hair, Lin Xiaomian looks even more immature, his skin is white, and he feels like a high school student.

Ye Mo still thinks that black hair looks good......

"When will your millet be beaten?" The second uncle looked at Lin Shan and asked.

"Later, the threshing team will come and see, and if the price is right, they will go out to fight. If it's too expensive, start in the afternoon. Lin Shan said.

"For the threshing team, four or five hundred yuan per mu of millet. On your side, it is estimated that it will cost 500 yuan for 1 mu, which is not cost-effective. The second uncle said: "It's better to come by yourself, we will help you fight, and we can finish the fight in two days." ”

"Let's ask first. If 400 yuan can be negotiated, it will be given to the threshing team. We're tired during this time......"

The millet on their side is growing very well, with a production capacity of more than 1,000 catties per mu.

But the price of millet is cheap, and a pound is more than a dollar. If it is for the threshing team, even if it is 400 yuan per acre...... That kind of millet has nothing to make money.

They have a harvester here to harvest, and one mu of millet is about 130 yuan.

In the mountains, there are mostly small plots of farmland, and the harvesting cost of harvesters is also expensive.

At the same time, there are still many farmland harvesters on their side who can't get down, so they have to harvest them themselves or hire someone to harvest them......

After eating, the threshing team came over and went to see the rice fields.

The rice fields were next to their house, but there was a lot of mud in the fields. This kind of seedling field, when harvested, people will be very tired.

The price is 480 yuan for 1 mu, which is more than 3.4 mu in total.

This price is too high.

It is equivalent to giving half of the grain to the threshing team.

The millet is ripe and is in a hurry to harvest.

After doing the math, it costs 1,600 yuan to harvest 3.4 acres of millet.

Under the persuasion of the second uncle, Lin Shan and the others decided to harvest it themselves.

After three o'clock in the afternoon, he went down to the seedling field to cut the millet, and worked until eight o'clock in the evening, Ye Mo was really exhausted.

……

When I woke up the next day, I felt pain all over my body. Thighs, calves, arms...... The muscles in the lower abdomen are all painful.

Xiaomian's parents woke up very early.

Ye Mo got up from the bed, they had already cut a piece of grain.

More than three acres of millet were harvested in two and a half days.

Fortunately, there are two uncles and aunts to help, otherwise they would have to work for two more days.

Ye Mo gritted his teeth and persevered throughout the whole process......

Lin Xiaomian helped bring tea and water and caught lobsters in the field.

After only three days of fighting, Ye Mo felt that his whole body was numb, and all his movements were like marionettes. Sore muscles, walking posture, uncoordinated body, lack of strength......

This is the first time that Ye Mo has threshed grain in the true sense.

In the past, I heard people say that threshing grain is very tiring. His family also planted millet when he was a child, but that was when he was a child...... When he was a child, how much work could he do.

It is not an exaggeration to say that those who have really beaten millet will really understand that 'who knows that the food on the plate is hard'.

I sweated more in the past three days than in three months.

Xiaomian's parents are also very tired, but they seem to be very energetic and energetic. Ye Mo is much worse, and after a few days, he feels that the whole person is about to be wasted......

Threshing is tiring, and drying millet is also very hard.

Millet has tiny burrs on its body, which are particularly itchy when stuck to the body.

When the grain in the field is finished, the dried grain is gathered.

Lin Xiaomian made dinner and had spicy crayfish.

After the second uncle came over, he brought wine from the refrigerator: "Xiao Ye, accompany the second uncle to drink two glasses." ”

"Wow." Ye Mo sat down with a smile.

Lin Shan took the crayfish and sat next to Ye Mo, looking at him with a smile: "Threshing grain, are you tired?" ”

"Tired." Ye Mo said. It's really tiring......

"Hahahaha...... the second uncle opened the beer with a smile: "In the countryside, the most tiring thing is threshing the grain." If you want to be the son-in-law of our Lao Lin family, you will inevitably come to threshing grain every year in the future. ”

"Let's plant less grain in the future, so that we can eat for ourselves." The second aunt walked over and said with a smile.

Lin Shan smiled and looked at Ye Mo: "It's still comfortable over there, don't grow millet, grow fruits." ”

"It's not easy to grow fruit. And the farming time is relatively long...... But it's much easier than threshing. Ye Mo said, seeing that the second uncle poured him wine, he quickly stood up: "I'll come by myself." ”

"Sit down, I'll pour it for you."

"Where's Kobayashi?" Ye Mo saw that the second uncle had already poured wine into his bowl, so he asked.

"I'm coming." Lin Xiaolin had already come over, still in the living room, and when he heard Ye Mo's voice, he walked over with a smile: "Isn't it comfortable to thresh?" ”

"It's very comfortable."

"Hahaha...... I beat the grain for a long time, and to this day, I still have a sore body. Lin Xiaolin smiled and said, "If you are not tired, we will go fishing after eating." ”

"No, no."
