The rooster crowed twice, and as soon as the sky was bright, the villagers of Jinqiaokan had breakfast and rushed to their paddy fields with farm tools.

It is not easy for the common people to serve a crop, and they have to receive the grain in the warehouse. An autumn rain can detract from the harvest, so you have to hurry up and harvest the threshing.

The Zhu family father and son are no exception. After several months of hard work, it was finally time for a bumper harvest, Zhu Fan didn't close his eyes for a few excited nights, and the rooster crowed all over and over and got up to dip it in the moonlight, sharpening the sickle brightly.

Fortunately, Zhu Yuanzhang and Zhu Biao are also used to getting up early. And to be honest, last night the father and son were seven people crowded on a kang, which was full, and it was difficult to turn over. The five brothers have long been used to it, and it doesn't affect their sleep if they are wrapped up together.

It's hard for the newcomers to sleep......

Zhu Hu also got up early and made a pot full of cured brown rice. Even the real rural people, this season also has to eat and eat enough, so have the strength to work!

After a full meal, the seven men came to their fifteen acres of land majestically and vigorously.

The water in the field, Tang Jiachang had already helped drain it. It's as soft as a sponge on your feet.

Brother Zhu Fan scrambled to grab his trouser legs and go down to the field first, but then they were all dumbfounded...... Then I remembered that I hadn't confiscated the crops.

This made the eldest brother, who was holding a sickle and at a loss, laughingly relieved, it turned out that they were all the same as himself.

Zhu Yuanzhang did not lose the craftsmanship of the old peasants.

I saw that he was only wearing a calf's nose robe, squatting down barefoot, scooping up a clump of rice stalks with his left hand, waving a sickle with his right hand and pulling it in front of him, and with a bang, he cut off a tuft. Cut two or three bushes like this, and he had a large handful of rice in his hand.

Zhu Yuanzhang gently rested the rice stalk in the field, then cut out the second handful and put it on top of the first. Two handfuls of rice stalks are stacked in the shape of a 'human' shape on top of the cut rice stubble.

He then raised his knife to cut the third, and did not forget to greet his sons:

"Hurry up and do it while it's cool, and as soon as the sun comes out, it's unbearably hot to work."

As he spoke, the golden word 'human' appeared behind him, like a ruthless humanoid harvester.

The sons hurried to do the same, and stooped down and cut the sickle.

"You father, you are really from an old farmer." Tang Jiachang, who was in the field next to him, said while cutting rice: "I thought that those who were big officials would not be able to farm." ”

"My father was farming before he became an official." Zhu Dao.

"I've also spared cows." Zhu Di said.

"I have to have dinner too." Zhu Zhen mends the knife. He's here to help, too.

"Hahaha, isn't that the same way as Hong Wuye?" Tang Jiachang couldn't help but regret it: "Alas, speaking of which, Old Tang, I also let go of the cow, but unfortunately I didn't ask for food, otherwise maybe I could also be a big official." ”

"Uncle, it's no problem if you want to be a big official. The Qin Wangfu and the Jin Wangfu are all short of a manager, are you interested? The third child sincerely suggested: "We can recommend you to go, the treatment is good, and the power is also very great." ”

"Yes, yes. Let's go to King Qin's Mansion......" Zhu Fan looked at Tang Jiachang when he heard this, and it seemed that he really felt that he was suitable.

"Hahaha, you two are happy with me. The head of the palace can't be a eunuch? "Tang Jiachang is well-informed, and he knows that before becoming this official, he needs to cut a knife first.

"Anyway, you're this age, and you don't have that kind of thought." Zhu said disapprehantly: "And I heard that you will live a long life after cutting." ”

"That's not going to work either. It's one thing for us to use it or not, it's another thing to have it or not. Tang Jiachang resolutely defended his balls.

"Alas, well, well." King Qin had no choice but to regret it, he still liked Tang Jiachang a lot.

~~

Before I knew it, it was the morning, and the fifth child came to deliver the meal with a burden.

"Rest, rest, eat." Zhu Yuanzhang stood up, moved his sore waist, and looked at the rows of golden 'people' characters behind him, and couldn't help but be very happy. The barriers that have been accumulated in my heart for many days have finally loosened.

As he walked to the shade of the tree on the edge of the field, he asked Zhu Biao, "How is the boss, can you still stand it?" ”

Zhu Biao is not like his younger brother, he has been doing farm work for more than half a year, and this is the first time that a big girl has been on a sedan chair. When I came down in the morning, I already felt that this waist was not my own.

But he is soft on the outside and strong on the inside, and he refuses to complain, so he holds on to his sore waist and smiles: "No problem, I can persevere." ”

"Well done." Zhu Yuanzhang patted him on the shoulder.

"The younger brothers are good." Zhu Biao said with a smile: "The second child has done at least three times my work, and he is still alive." ”

"Big brother, you can't compare with the second brother. He is a well-known humanoid animal. Zhu Di said with a smile.

"You're still the reincarnation of a black bear spirit." Zhu sarcastically said to Zhu Di.

"You!" Zhu Di glared angrily. In front of his father, he can't take Ximenqing, transvestitism and the like.

"Okay, okay, you two are doing well." Zhu Biao grabbed the shoulders of the two of them and said with a smile: "I cut the rice all morning, and I still have the strength to talk about it." ”

"I can still cut all day!"

"I can cut for two days!"

In the endless bickering of the third and fourth children, the father and son of the Zhu family sat down in the shade by the field.

Tang Jiachang also naturally came over.

Everyone first poured a stomach of cold boiled water to quench their thirst and cool off, and then opened the bamboo basket, and the hot meatloaf and green onion sauce were made vigorously.

Zhu Yuanzhang had a good appetite after labor, with a wrap in one hand and a green onion dipped in the sauce in the other, and he ate it deliciously.

Tang Jiachang gave a thumbs up and said: "The big officials can eat and drink, and they are also good at work!" ”

Zhu Yuanzhang grinned and said, "We suffered all kinds of hardships when we were young. People say that harvesting rice is the most tiring time of the year, but we were looking forward to harvesting rice back then, so we rushed to eat a few full meals. ”

"The big officials are really heroes and heroes." Tang Jiachang praised from the bottom of his heart, and asked tentatively: "If you come back this time, you won't leave, right?" ”

"I have to go." Zhu Yuanzhang sighed: "The errand is not free." I really hope to stay here for the rest of my life, a cow with six acres of land, and my wife and children are hot on the kang, this is the good life we want. ”

"Listen to what you mean, is it a comeback?" Tang Jiachang asked in surprise.

"Haha, sort of." Zhu Yuanzhang nodded with a smile and asked Tang Jiachang: "What is my husband's wish, come out and see if we can help you realize it." ”

"I really have a wish," Tang Jiachang sighed when he heard this: "I want to go back to my hometown to sweep the grave, but Zhu Hongwu, who killed a thousand knives, didn't let us immigrants leave the county for half a step." ”

'Poof......' The princes squirted water, choked on food, and couldn't wait to quickly cover Old Tang's mouth.

"Zhu Hongwu is indeed a killer of a thousand knives, he deserves to die." Who knew that Zhu Yuanzhang nodded, and said thoughtfully: "He did make a bastard decision." However, His Royal Highness the King of Chu has already interceded for you, and I believe that there will be a will soon come down and lift the restrictions on you. ”

"Ah, really?" Tang Jiachang couldn't close his mouth in disbelief. But thinking that the other party is the old boss of the county master, the credibility should still be very high.

"Really." Zhu Yuanzhang swallowed the last bite of the cake, patted his butt and got up and said, "The sixth brother has brought the threshing bucket, go, threshing!" ”

ps. The second more, I thought the child was fine yesterday, but it burned again, and it is estimated that the first flu did not run. Hey, haggard......
