At noon, everyone came back to eat and rest, and they would not go down to the field until the sun was not so hot in the afternoon.

Everyone went down to the ground before dawn, and they were busy until now, tired and hungry, and everyone only cared about eating in a big gulp, and no one spoke.

It wasn't until he was full that Yang Pei asked about the morning's events: "Family master, can we really plant again after this autumn harvest and harvest again?" ”

"yes, what's wrong?" Gu Qing wore a straw hat and stood in the sun to dry the rice that was recovered: "Actually, it's not just that, usually the taste of the second crop of rice is better than that of the first crop, and the yield is also higher, as long as the climate is suitable, you can plant two crops." ”

"Master of the house, I'll come, the sun is too big, you hurry up and go to the house to rest!" Yang Pei snatched the rake from Gu Qing's hand and drove Gu Qing back to the house.

There are too few rooms and many people at home, and I want them to sleep in the bed to rest, but there are not enough beds, so I can only lay the dry straw of the previous year in the hall and take a nap.

In the afternoon, when the sun was not so hot, the family put on straw hats and went down to the field again.

When the sun goes down, it is a cooler time of the day, and the busy people in the fields have no intention of calling it a day, and everyone is harvesting frantically before it gets dark.

Gu Qing called back all the busy people in the field, tired of the day, eat a meal and take a good rest, there are still many things to do after the meal.

Zhu Han put the food on the table, and he was grabbing it in the afternoon, and he didn't have much time to make anything delicious, but the food tube was enough, and everyone had to eat enough.

After eating, I heard the people in the village say that the village chief had called everyone for a small meeting, Gu Qing guessed that it was the second crop rice she said in the morning, and she hurriedly took Yang Pei there.

It was dark at dusk, and all the villagers in Gujia Village gathered around the soaphorn tree.

Li Zheng stood on the stone, looking at the villagers below with a happy face: "After the locust plague, we finally ushered in a bumper harvest, today is the official harvest of rice, tired of a day, I know that everyone has worked hard, call everyone today, just two things."

The first thing must be that many people have seen Gu Niangzi's family rice threshing machine, Gu Niangzi said, she also ordered five units for the village to be sent over tomorrow. ”

"Hey, Gu Niangzi is really a good person, I saw it in the afternoon, the threshing machine is fast."

"Yes, Gu Niangzi's family has a lot of land and few fields, a total of five acres of paddy fields, half of them have been harvested today, and tomorrow day, it is estimated that it will be over."

"It's good to have more husbands, and I work fast, I knew earlier, and I would have found a few more husbands."

"How many more are you looking for? Do you think you have the ability to take care of your mother? Find a few more, and you're not afraid of starvation! ”

Seeing that everyone was chatting more and more outrageous, Li Zheng hurriedly interrupted: "Everyone be quiet, tomorrow there will be a rice threshing machine, the big guys will take turns to use it, the family will use it for an hour, if it is not the turn, hurry up and harvest, don't be your turn, the rice stalk has not been cut yet."

The second thing, Gu Niangzi said, we have a good climate, we can plant the second season of rice, what is the situation after paying taxes after the autumn harvest in previous years, everyone knows that since Gu Niangzi said that we can plant the second season, then we will plant!

Everyone hurriedly grabbed the harvest and played, then ploughed the field and continued to plant seedlings. Strive to harvest again, Gu Niangzi said that the output in the second season will be higher than that in the first season, and everyone wants to eat enough, so they will work hard for a few days! ”

"What? Kind of second season? ”

"I haven't heard of it, we have only planted one season for generations, if this is one more season, how long will it be more food!"

"That's right, Gu Niangzi's idea is good!"

"Lizheng, where do these second-season seedlings come from? It will take a month to raise seedlings, it's too late! ”

Li Zheng was asked like this, so he could only look at Gu Qing, since Gu Niangzi could bring it up, she must have solved the problem of seedlings a long time ago.

Gu Qing waved his hand: "Don't worry, I have prepared the seedlings for everyone, and when the time comes, you can give them to me at the price of cereals!" ”

Zhao Dajiang was the first to object: "I don't want seedlings, one autumn harvest is tiring enough, and I come twice?" Let not let people live? ”

Gu Hui agreed: "Yes, we have few families, where can we compare with Gu Niangzi, Gu Niangzi has many people in her family, and her mouth is light and light, and she doesn't look at what others are tired of." ”

Li Zheng felt that what Gu Qing said made sense anyway, and Gu Qing also told the county magistrate about it, and the county magistrate had already informed all the other villages, that is to say, this method was approved by the county magistrate and was feasible.

Zhao Dajiang and Gu Hui are really two troublemakers.

Li Zheng said angrily: "This year's tax has come down, and there is not much food left after everyone pays the tax, and if you are willing to plant the second season of rice, you can go to Gu Niangzi's house to register and receive seedlings, and if you don't want to plant, I won't force you to do anything!" But, if you don't have enough food to eat next year, don't expect the big guys to help with relief! That's it, adjournment! ”

The villagers all dispersed, and the entire Gujia Village did not quiet down, and every household was slammed.

Even though they knew that there would be a more convenient and faster rice threshing machine tomorrow, the hard-working villagers still felt that they were not at ease with so much rice in the yard, so they had to beat it out overnight and put it into the house, and then move the threshing rice out and raise it when the weather was sunny and windy.

The moonlight is so bright that you don't need to light a torch to see it.

Gu Qing's family didn't have to work so hard to threshing with flail, but even after a day's work, the whole family was still tired.

Everyone washed up simply, Gu Qing took Gu Yu and Gu Nuo to sleep in one room, Zhu Han in one room for four, and three people in the Tong family for three people, and the whole family barely slept.

The sky was dark, but the entire Gujia Village had already woken up.

There was a sound of talking in the courtyard.

"Nuno, what's the matter with your hair, why is it dirty like this, I said that there is mud everywhere on the bed, it turns out that your hair is brought up." Gu Qing said angrily, "Didn't you know to flush last night, come and lie down, I'll wash your hair casually......"

Gu Nuo refused: "Eldest sister, I'll be sweating again when I'm busy, let's wash it at night." ”

Gu Qing scolded him: "Then you ate something last night, can you not eat it today, you have to wash it if it is dirty, how can you save it to wash it again at night, come here." ”

Gu Nuo had no choice but to say, "I'll do it myself." ”

"Okay, lie down if you want to lie down, don't talk more."

Gu Qing pressed him down on the bench, and there was still half a bowl of shampoo left at home, let Gu Nuo wash it by himself, and he couldn't wash it clean for a long time.

She came to wash it, and it was fast and clean.

Gu Nuo's hair is quite long, and the Qiu Harvest family uses a hairband. The cloth belt that binds the hair is untied, there are thirty or forty centimeters, the hair is a little oily, there are mud and grass clippings, and there is a smell of sweat, not ordinary dirty.

After she wets her hair, she applies shampoo, rinses it with water, and combs through the knotted hair......

Mo Li walked out of the room and saw such a scene.

In the thin morning light, in the corner of the yard, his lady combed his brother's hair gently, there were chickens and ducks in the yard, there were puppies, and the surrounding ground was full of rice stalks and grains.

"Eldest sister, you are so good......"

Gu Nuo looked at Gu Qing with blank eyes, and couldn't help but sigh.

Mo Li has only had the impression of Master since he was a child, but Master himself is a rough man, so he doesn't care if he is dirty or not, he didn't think it before, but now, looking at this scene in the small courtyard, he began to envy Gu Nuo, and he even wanted Gu Qing to comb his hair.
