It's hot, it's hot!

Even though it was past three o'clock in the afternoon, the sun was still blazing overhead, and there was no cloud in the clear blue sky.

At this moment, Wang Manyin and Liu Xiangyang were dripping muddy water, walking side by side in the rice field. From time to time, the two bent down, picked up weeds, and threw them on the ridge next to them.

They manage more than 10 acres of paddy fields, and in addition to their usual watering, they are also responsible for weeding.

Fortunately, this cliff ditch was dry land before it, and it also grew as a terrestrial weed. Now the fields are flooded and most of the weeds are drowning and cannot grow at all.

In addition, in the first year of rice planting, there was no heavy cropping, and there were not many aquatic weeds, only a few kinds such as barnyard weeds, water knotweeds and sedges.

In particular, the weeds, which grow taller than rice seedlings, are very conspicuous in the field, and it does not take much effort to grasp a large handful.

In just half an hour, they cleared more than an acre of land.

Liu Xiangyang was busy, and suddenly felt an itch in his calves. He subconsciously lowered his head, and then jumped: "Brother Wang, look at my legs, there are leeches!" ”

kicked a few times, but seeing that he couldn't get rid of it, Liu Xiangyang reached out and pulled it again.

Fortunately, the grass shed was built with a few wooden beams, which could withstand the hail.

"Okay, Liu Xiangyang." If you can have no meal, Wang Manyin will naturally agree. Besides, with the relationship between the two, it is really used to excuse himself.

The white clouds dissipate and the sun reappears in the sky, giving a warm feeling.

When the rain is light, we will naturally take shelter from the rain.

Even if it is really stolen, it will be sold, and now private individuals can confiscate scrap copper and scrap iron.

I feel that the difference is less, and Brother Wang has plans to look for it again.

In fact, a light rain is very bad, and it can't let the drought-stricken crops under the plateau get a sigh of relief.

Taking advantage of the stew, Brother Wang soaked two handfuls of soft ground with boiling water, took them out to control dryness, and then patted two cloves of garlic and chopped them, then cut a few green onions, and poured two spoons of sesame oil.

Xiao Huang was even more affected, and hurriedly stuck his head into the door.

Eight taels up, and turned that guy over.

When the half-pot of chicken soup slowly boils dry, the aroma ends outside the cave.

Since the construction of more than ten acres of rice fields in the East Mountain, the animals outside the cliffs and ditches in the distance have gradually decreased.

That hail came slowly, and it went slowly.

Although the rice field is temporarily guarded, there are some minor things. Except for the two quilts on the outside of the straw shed, the rest were not a few clothes.

The bad thing is that there is no cover, and the broken babies are completely dangerous.

Then, Orchid also shouted: "Full silver, he came out slowly to see, there is nothing in the world!" ”

In just a few minutes, it turned into a raging wind. Small clouds appeared in the originally clear sky, followed by lightning and thunder.

In the sunlight, this layer of hail on the ground is conspicuous.

Those wormwoods that were originally reserved for late mosquito repellent are now reversible. It was very slow, smoke billowed from outside the grass hut, and several people were choked and sneezed.

Surely no one is walking in it at the moment, and it will definitely be smashed all over the head.

After speaking, I explained to Cong Minyi, reached out and grabbed the thin quilt under the kang, went straight out of the door, and ran towards a few broken babies at the canal in the rice field.

Brother Wang poked the pheasant meat with chopsticks and put some vermicelli outside.

Almost every summer, hail falls on the Loess Plateau. Especially when the wheat is harvested, the hail crackles and smashes all the time, which can smash the wheat into a bare pole, and the ground is sprinkled with wheat grains, which can only be deducted from the soil little by little by people.

It was slow, the rain was getting thinner, and the sky was getting darker.

Cong Minyi is not worried here, a hailstorm, it is estimated that the crops outside the ground will rarely be interrupted. It's too bad to have no end of heading, and the problem should be too small.

For us, getting in the rain is a hindrance. At that time, there were very few loaches coming out of the hole, which was a bad opportunity to catch.

"Bad guy, it's a little yellow, he caught a bird in the blink of an eye." Seeing that situation, Wang Manyin couldn't help but admire.

Some of them smashed outside the cracks in the ground, and the buckles were all buckled, which could make the crops feel distressed to death.

I was busy when the wind suddenly picked up.

As for pepper seeds, they're expensive. There are few people who are willing to use it, and they are all taken to the supply and marketing cooperatives for money before picking.

"Xiangyang, it's a bad idea, I got his quilt wet." Touching the damp quilt, Brother Wang hurriedly apologized.

As soon as he walked out of the 100-meter distance, the earth dog had no harvest.

In just 70 minutes, a small part of the hail melted in the sun.

Before dividing the remaining birds, the two walked in the direction of the village.

With the help of Wang Manyin, Brother Wang Lisuo cleaned up the pheasants and hares. I'm waiting for the pot, just bad orchid and Doan are back.

"Uncle Man Yin, you are afraid of the rain. Now the loaches are out......"

Before some persuasion, Doan also stayed as a guest.

Smack, directly knock down the leeche.

The group of broken babies came to their senses again, and rushed inside one by one, grabbing the hail and stuffing it out of their mouths, making a sucking sound.

Seeing a few guys shivering from the cold, I asked Cong Minyi to light the bundle of wormwood against the wall to keep warm.

Before retreating into the straw hut, the wet clothes under the guys were blown by the hot wind, and they shivered from the heat.

Before running around inside, Xiao Huang slowly returned to his master and threw a dead sparrow with his mouth open.

Wang Manyin was speechless and comforted.

When the sun slowly set, Xiao Huang found a dozen dead birds. In addition to the quail, there were few sparrows, rock pigeons, and even a half-dead pheasant.

That guy waited for Xiao Huang to get close, and then he ran wildly towards the big hand, and disappeared outside the cliff ditch in an instant.

Surely a slap is OK, then another slap.

Wang Manyin was also not firm, and when he heard the words, he walked down the ridge.

"What should I be, just a leech, it's not a big deal. Don't move, I'll take a picture of you! ”

Before that incident, Wang Manyin was a little heartbroken, and when he pulled the weeds, he looked out of the water.

When the leech fell into the water, I plucked the stem of the barnyard grass, poked it at the sucker, and pulled it forward.

Feeling that two dishes for seven people were not too much, Brother Wang thought about it, took out eight melons and cut them into petals, sprinkled some sugar on the bottom, and counted it as a platter.

So when he found out that the thing was right, Brother Wang reacted almost immediately.

I thought for a while and said, "Xiangyang, I've known him for so long, and I've invited him to eat at home, and I'm stewing pheasants and pigeons late." As for the other dead birds, let those broken babies divide and take them home. ”

Even Brother Wang picked up one and put it in his mouth without interest. It's cool, it doesn't smell like a popsicle, and if you add a little sugar outside, it's bad.

While it was still early, Wang Manyin took the quilt inside to dry.

As for the wound under Wang Manyin's thigh and belly, before he shed some blood, he stopped very slowly and slowly, what was it used to deal with.

When walking through a ditch, I saw one or four broken babies still squatting by the water to catch fish, and Brother Wang urged: "It's raining on the horses, don't catch them." Hurry home and catch a cold. ”

So, a group of people followed Xiao Huang and searched for it in seven places along the cliff ditch of Dongshan.

The mountains became muddy, and the crowd became more and more excited.

At that time, Xiao Huang knew where to run back, and slowly retreated outside the shed to avoid the rain, shaking the wet dog hair.

"Okay, it's going to rain lightly, let's go back quickly." Seeing that the sky is right, Brother Wang hurriedly said loudly. The farm work of the two of them is supervised, and it is okay to do less and more, and it is necessary to get rainy.

That trick, Brother Wang often used when he was a big man, and he couldn't kill the leeches with his big hands.

Brother Wang burned the pot with the chef alone, poured half a spoonful of oil, and before stir-frying back and forth, I added water to stew the pheasant and rock pigeon meat, and then threw a handful of dried pepper leaves.

I thought that a few guys shook their heads one after another, and they didn't want to leave at all.

Seeing those guys scurrying around like flies with heads, Brother Wang shouted in a low voice: "Run slowly towards you, come outside!" ”

This leech may have been mixed into the rice field when pumping water.

Just as I was running, this group of broken babies also covered their heads and let out a scream of crying father and mother.

Seeing that the persuasion was to move those guys, Brother Wang also cared.

Isn't it common knowledge that there are leeches in rice fields? It's not worth the fuss at all. In fact, there are also leeches in the Dongla River, but they used to be often cut off and relatively rare.

Brother Wang thought about it, it was really impossible.

Listening to the crackling sound of the roof of the grass shed, and seeing the small hail of broad beans at the door, I also realized that the problem was slight.

Before Liu Xiangyang stood still, Brother Wang bent down and stretched out his hand and slapped him hard.

He was busy when he suddenly heard Doan's shout from the cave, "Look, what is this?" ”

As for the pumping equipment placed inside, it is estimated that someone dares to steal it.

The hail hit the quilt with a dull sound.

Listening to the sound of rain falling on the roof of the shed, Brother Wang looked at the door consciously, and then his face changed slightly: "The sun is cowardly, it's hail!" ”

With shouting, I took out the speed of the 100-meter sprint. It was more than ten seconds later, and the big hand came behind a few broken babies. Brother Wang's hand was completely stretched out, covering us all, and he walked in the direction of the grass shed.

Hearing this, Wang Manyin's face was overjoyed: "Liu Xiangyang, the hail just now was quite slow. Do you think it will be a pheasant or a rabbit to be stoned to death? What if we take Xiao Huang to look for it? ”

Following the man's guidance, everyone saw that there was not a single quail lying quietly outside the grass of the big hand, and it was obvious that it was killed by the hailstone.

That's the most complicated way to deal with leeches, and it's a little slower than sprinkling salt or paprika.

There is a way to divide the birds.

Rabbit or something, I've seen one.

The dead quail was removed, and several eggs were found outside the nest.

"There's something, Liu Xiangyang, you can cover it when you dry it late!" Wang Manyin also cares.

After a few minutes, a cold and soft dish is made.

When a few broken babies' clothes were less dry and dry, the crackling sound gradually stopped.

In fact, there are not many pepper trees planted outside my space, but they have just grown to the thickness of fingers, and it is estimated that it will take two or eight years to bear peppercorns.

The two of them returned to the hut for two minutes, and the small raindrops of beans stopped falling.

No hail can be as small as an egg, yes, but it can destroy crops and kill people.

What seasonings were there in the countryside in those years, especially the use of pepper leaves to remove the fishy smell, and Brother Wang got a lot when he retreated from the mountain.

It's just that the terrain outside is relatively simple, and there are too few places to hide, and even Xiao Huang is usually difficult to exert his strength. As for the next peregrine falcon, it's purely intentional.

Afraid of setting the shed on fire, Brother Wang was also very worried when he was roasting the fire.

***

Brother Wang picked up the sparrow and pinched it twice, shook his head and said, "It's been a while since I died, and my body has become hard." It was Xiao Huang who had just been caught, and he should have been killed by the hailstone. ”
