This was his decision, and of course the others couldn't say anything, but He Zao saw that Sibao and them were the same as her, and they all had obvious reluctance.

Although they have only been together for a short time, they all regard Ah Che as a big brother who can be trusted and relied on.

Although it is not yet harvest time, some of the early sorghum has already fallen, so in the fields, people can often be seen digging into sorghum fields that are taller than people or cutting sorghum with scissors.

In fact, this is also a place with a very rural character.

When the high-yielding, delicious and delicious corn replaced sorghum, after it became popular in the countryside granges of the Great Dai Dynasty, sorghum became less important, compared with corn, it is undoubtedly unpalatable, the taste is somewhat similar to raw persimmon, more jerky and unpalatable, and eating too much sorghum flour made of wowotou, it is easy to cause indigestion.

Therefore, in modern times, sorghum has been popular in China for more than 3,000 years, and it was quickly replaced by corn and gradually disappeared.

But it is not completely gone, just like a very small part of the land in Wuxian Town is still cultivated on the one hand, for food, and on the other hand, for the necessary tools of life.

It is like a broom made of sorghum ears and a brush for brushing pots and bowls, as well as a bamboo mat that is indispensable for noodles, nests, and pancakes. People in Wuxian Town call the sorghum brush "Guduer", or "cooking", and the bamboo pad is called "pot plate".

The early sorghum harvested at this time is basically used for this purpose.

The He family did not set aside a plot of land to grow sorghum, but like most people in the village, they mixed it up in a cornfield, which is taller and thinner than corn, and it is easy to see their early-maturing ears waving in the wind.

Mrs. He is a master of making these household utensils, and most of the people in the village will come to Mrs. He to help make brooms, cooks and other things at this time.

And this time is also the most lively time of the year and the most abundant food for the He family.

The villagers are simple and honest, and they will not ask for money to help with neighbors, so they will send a bowl of vegetables to express their gratitude, and if the family conditions are good, they will send a bowl of meat dishes.

Therefore, in the past few days, Mr. He has frequently asked Dayang or Forsythia to come to Uncle He's house to call the people in the third room home for dinner, but except for He Laosan, no one is really cheeky to go back to eat that bowl of dishes - since he can be the master of the house, the food in the third room is much better, and Chen seems to want to compensate for the suffering of several children in the old yard, eggs and duck eggs continue every day, if he is lucky, He Laosan can also catch a pheasant or a hare on the mountain, although half of them will always be sent back to the old house, But they were also quite satisfied.

He Laosan went back twice in total, and his face was not good or bad after coming back.

He Zao guessed that it was probably the things of making sorghum tools that made Mrs. He feel very good, and she didn't scold He Laosan anymore, naturally, maybe it was the credit of the dishes that were delivered to the door for nothing.

Songhua eggs still need a month to complete soaking, so He Zao they have returned to the rhythm of their old life, during the day up the mountain to pinch honeysuckle, at night around the scorpion, because when the family was separated, the He family did not give a little bit of the three houses, they no longer have to pick up pigweed on the mountain, He Zao they have become much easier, pinching honeysuckle faster, but the honeysuckle on the mountain is not inexhaustible, He Zao has obviously felt that where they often go, honeysuckle has become very rare.

They often struggled to find the not-so-bright honeysuckle around the vast cypress groves.

On this day, after He Laosan came back from his second trip to the old house, he hesitated, rubbed his hands and said to Chen and a few children: "If you don't win, let's go to the ground and cut the millet ......"

The people in the third room were taken aback.

Those sorghum are the lifeblood of Mrs. He, how can she be willing to let them help cut it?

"The other families have basically helped, but we haven't done it ourselves, the old man's meaning is to let us go to ......the ground with the big house and the fourth room."

He Laosan was a little nervous and showed a not-so-successful smile.

He Zao raised his eyebrows: "What do you want to do?" ”

"It must be that we want to have a good relationship with Dafang!" Sibao raised his head from the four calculations, and his face was a little cold: "Since that time, I have never spoken to the eldest lady again." ”

He Chun'er and Qibao also nodded.

Not only Sibao, but the children in the third room were quite friendly to Dayang and Forsythia, but they were very annoyed by Ma's behavior of helping when Chen was beaten at that time, and they basically ignored her when they met her after the separation.

Obviously, Old Man He also knew about this and tried his best to ease their relationship with Dafang.

He Laosan hurriedly said: "Your eldest lady is not going, she is cooking at home...... The family is divided, and the whole family is waiting for dinner...... Just your uncle, your fourth uncle, and a few children. ”

He turned his head to look at Chen: "When we split up, we didn't divide the cooking and broom, and now we still use the mile of the baby's family, let's go and help, my mother will always make a few, let's use it later!" ”

Chen didn't object, only nodded: "We don't want the broom that my mother worked so hard to make, just to help...... It's all elders! ”

Chen's knowledge generally made He Laosan very happy, he nodded, and his tone was more natural: "Yes, yes, they are all elders." As he spoke, he became a little melancholy: "In previous years, we all went!" ”

In previous years, the children of the He family would indeed go to the cornfield to cut sorghum with a pair of scissors and bamboo baskets.

He Zao and several people exchanged glances in private.

He Zao said, "It's okay to help, but we don't want anything made by milk." ”

He Laosan hurriedly said: "Don't, we don't want to, just go and help." ”

He nodded his head like a chicken pecking rice, as if he was afraid that if he slowed down, he would change his mind a few days earlier.

It seems that he is looking forward to this.

He Zao didn't think that doing farm work with the people in the old house could improve the relationship with each other, but He Laosan was right, there is no need to cut off the relationship with the old house because of the separation, the relationship was tense before because living under the same roof, there will always be some stumbling, and the tongue always touches the tongue, but now that they have moved out, there is no direct interest relationship, and it is always a little good to get along better!

What's more, there are two elders in the He family, and the third room can't be ignored no matter what.

Just a little more work......

Before going to the ground, He Zao deliberately changed into a shabby coat, wrapped his hair in a handkerchief, and changed into a pair of soft straw sandals, with his trouser legs tied up, looking really like a miniature version of a peasant woman.

He Zao looked at himself in the mirror and laughed.

Chen's body was still not well adjusted, He Laosan insisted on letting her rest more, and He Chun'er did not allow her to do heavy work in the field, and after a lot of time, she probably felt that if she fell ill, it would cost more money than to do a little farm work, and Chen finally obeyed everyone's arrangement.

He had not been in the field for many years, but when she stood in the cornfield and smelled the sweet and earthy smell of corn, she felt that she liked to go to the field very much, as if she had returned to a long time ago, when the tourist area of her hometown had not yet been developed.
