Chapter 438: Harvesting Wheat
He Chun'er couldn't help laughing: "Mother, this is early coaxing, people are so busy with things, how can they take care of our family's chores!" ”
He Zao shook his head: "That's not necessarily. ”
The Han Mansion paid far more attention to their He family than they had imagined.
He Chun'er hesitated: "Is that good or bad......"
He Zao was more relaxed: "Look at what you said, if you want to take the Du family's matter as an example, it must be good, someone pays attention to help, even if we can't solve it ourselves, they will help solve it, but if our family's Songhua egg recipe is a bad thing......"
"Let's have Brother Ah Che to help......" He Chun'er said.
He Zao shook his head: "He is an outsider in the end." ”
He Chun'er paused.
He had already smiled again: "It's okay, it's okay, it's me who is worried." ”
He Chun'er didn't speak, but there were still doubts in her eyes.
The farm work started in less than two days, and it was a big project, and both the poor and the rich in Lujia Village put down everything they were doing and began to harvest wheat.
Because of the rain in May, the wheat is most afraid of rain, and after the wheat is harvested, the corn must be planted before the rain.
So time is tight.
Everything in the Sanfang family is orderly, they have a lot of land, there are towns and counties, and they recruited short-term workers early to harvest together with the long-term workers in the family.
He Zao also went to the field to harvest. They don't do much, and the family has enough manpower, so they just have the right to exercise.
Both the Four Treasures and the Seven Treasures took two days off from the school.
The harvested wheat was dried to the field, because there was no field in the third house of He, He deliberately bought a large piece of wasteland on the way south of the village entrance in the early years, and used a car and a big wheel to crush it, until the ground was pressed tightly and flattened, so that people could clean it, and when the wheat was unloaded, it was cleaned again.
The unused site is relatively raw and not very easy to use.
Therefore, the soil on the ground must be cleaned.
He also built a wooden house on the side, and put in it a large piece of oiled paper and felt mats to protect it from rain, and put a bed and a bed and a bed, which he would use when he looked at the crops at night.
This site is still enough for the existing field of the He family, just a little, from the county to pull back more wheat, back and forth several times to pull the finish, to the end of the pull to the town to sell, more effortless.
But now, everything in Hesanfang is still in the construction stage. There are no houses in the county, and there are no manpower, so they can only take a little trouble to transport grain to their homes.
He Zao wrote this down in his little notebook and decided to solve this problem when he had the opportunity.
The wheat is dried, and then it is crushed with a large wheel, and the rolling is also skillful, not too heavy, not too light. If it is heavy, the wheat is crushed and worthless, and if it is lightly milled, the wheat cannot be completely separated from the stalks.
Therefore, the large reels specially used to crush the wheat are also specially beaten.
Once the wheat has been separated from the stalks, it is time to dry the wheat grains.
Because it is ground from wheat straw, the wheat grains carry a lot of wheat straw powder, and they need to be "dusted" after drying.
When the wheat is thoroughly dried, he picks up the wooden catalpa and lifts the wheat on the side of the wind, and the wind takes advantage of the situation to blow away the wheat straw powder and some fine dust and garbage.
And it that falls on the ground is clean wheat.
The wheat that has just been beaten down tastes very fragrant, and the old people in the village, such as the old man He, even if their teeth are useless, they also like to eat raw wheat, take a few and put them in their mouths, chew them for a long time, and it seems to be infinitely sweet.
But He Zao is the daughter of a farmer, and knows that they are just enjoying the year's harvest.
When the wheat is just cut from the ground, it is full of fragrance in the mouth, but to let the children of Hezao and their children, no matter how fragrant it is, it is not as fragrant as roasting the wheat and then eating it!
The slightly green skin is roasted and browned, but the innermost flesh is still fresh and tender, mixed together to eat, the taste seems to be incomparable to any mountain and sea delicacies in the world.
In previous years, the He family did not have much wheat, and they always harvested it very carefully, even if it was green wheat, they were not allowed to eat it. At most, Old Man He smashed it twice and enjoyed it.
Therefore, Sibaohe has long loved the scorched wheat, but they only have a few opportunities to eat it.
It's all greedy.
Roasted wheat is only sweet when eaten in May, but if it is changed to other times, it does not have the unique aroma of this time.
This time, several children were too addicted.
He Laosan is an expert at roasting wheat, grabbing a large handful of green wheat, scattering it along the edge of the stove, and it will be fully ripe in a while.
The children ate it separately.
Over there in the old house, this year's wheat harvest is not so many.
Wheat was rarer than corn, and the lazy Ma's went to the field, and was also supported by the urge to eat white flour, and cut it with his head down, and the forsythia followed behind and bundled it, and then carried it to the side of the road in a stack, and waited for the ox cart to come and load it, and then transported it to his home.
The old house did not have much land, and the wheat yield was average, so it was completely cut in less than two days.
Lao He's family has a special venue, this time because He Zao and they helped He Tanger, Old Man He also asked people to say, saying that they would lend them the venue, but Mrs. He was unwilling.
She didn't know it at first, and after waiting for two days, she didn't know who said that she had revealed her mouth, so that she knew that her baby girl was beaten by He Zao, and she was so angry that she had to scold He Zao and Dayang from time to time.
It's also a shame that He Zao is not in front of him and can't be heard, and Dayang has been staying in the town and rarely comes back.
He went out and wandered out, and the more he didn't want to stay in the village anymore, he wanted to go to the town at every opportunity.
When the farm was busy, it was Ma who sent a letter to him to come back, and he also knew that the family was not manpowered, so he thought about what He Zao had done in the past, so he went to He Laoer's house and forcibly brought them home.
Ma greatly appreciated his behavior.
After drying, when it was time to pack the bags, there was another situation on the old house.
He Lao Er personally came to the venue of the third room, looked at the wheat full of fields, and was so envious in his heart, but he suppressed his sourness, and said with a smile: "Third child, are your wheat going to be sold in the city or the town?" ”
He Laosan had also thought about this question a long time ago, so he spoke directly: "My family's wheat yield this year is good, and the people have already booked it, and we are ready to sell it to them in one go, so that they can pull it away." ”
Because of the abundance, the wheat in the three houses needs to be dried for another day.
He Laosan's eyes rolled, and he smiled: "That third child, people are in charge, and they promise to give a high price, you also know that at this time, the price is not high, you don't like this, we sell wheat to you, and you sell it to people together?" ”
He Laosan hesitated.
