Three days later, the rain stopped, and five days later, the water receded and the previously submerged farmland resurfaced.

The farmland is not much different from the previous one, except that there is a little more sediment, but the rice originally planted in it has either been directly washed away or died, and there is no hope for the harvest of these fields.

At this time, the village naturally turned around, and it was impossible to be as idle as before, whether it was clearing flooded farmland or other chores, which required manpower.

Qin Xi and Tang Ying did not clean up the flooded farmland, but were assigned to weeding in the dry land where peanuts, soybeans and corn were grown.

It rained for more than a month before, and finally stopped, and after a few days of sun, the weeds in the field grew crazy, and after only a few days, it grew as tall as the crops, and if it was not treated, the nutrients in the field were all taken away by the weeds, and the fruits of the crops could not fall well, and the harvest could not be counted on.

Moreover, weeding is time-limited, if you can't tear off the weeds before they bloom and bear fruit, as soon as the seeds come out, there will be more weeds in the coming year, and the field will be more difficult to take care of.

Now as long as the village can move, all of them are moving, even the primary school in the village is suspended, and everything has to serve production.

It is impossible to be lazy, everyone has their own task field, like Qin Xi and Tang Ying, the two of them, they must finish removing the grass in three points of the land today, if they don't finish it, there will be no work.

When the time comes to work in the afternoon, there will be a scorekeeper to come to check, and if the inspection is qualified, you can give them a score for work.

Qinjiang He Yuan, they were assigned to the task of weeding in the rice field, there is a kind of weed that grows very similar to rice, and now the rice has not yet emerged, with the naked eye, it is difficult to distinguish the difference between the two, it must be experienced and have good eyesight, to do this job.

After all, they are young, so they are naturally transferred.

After all, there are the most paddy fields in the village, and in Chenhui Village, 2/3 of the farmland is all paddy fields, and the rest is dry fields, which are planted with sweet potatoes, peanuts, soybeans, potatoes, corn, and other crops, which are all things that the villagers use to fill their stomachs.

After all, all the rice harvested in the village every year is handed over as public grain, and the rest, when the harvest is good, each person can share twenty or thirty catties, and when it is bad, it is only a dozen catties, and the rest of the grain is filled with sweet potatoes, corn and various beans.

Next door to Qin Xi and Tang Ying is Liu Mei, she originally didn't want to come, but as soon as Qin He was told by the village cadres, he called Liu Mei to work by himself.

At this time, as long as there is a person who can move and pant, it cannot be wasted, and every family, at most, leave an old lady at home to watch the children and take care of the housework, and there can be no more.

Although the work can be attached to Qin He's name, Liu Meigan's name is reluctant.

Since marrying Qin He, she has never been on the ground, and she has never done heavy work, and she is now pregnant, she feels that her body is not comfortable anywhere, and she usually sits with the pain of being separated by a stool, let alone now, after bending over and doing it for a few minutes, she straightened up, and while watching Qin Xi and them work, she gently beat her waist and back with her hands.

She's got a precious body now! According to her mother, this woman's first child is very important, she can't be sloppy, what to do, just get by, she can't finish it, someone will help.

Tang Ying walked to the side, called Qin Xi, and then pouted, motioning her to look at Liu Mei on the side, this person may not have any bad thoughts in his heart!

That is, now this person is standing next to her, she is not good at saying anything, she is afraid of being heard, saying that she is separated from their sister-in-law, but Liu Mei is like this, she is really not at ease, and she is lazy at first glance.

must want to push the unfinished work to Qin Xi.

Qin Xi saw that Tang Ying was nervous, and wanted to laugh a little: "It's nothing, do it quickly, finish it early and go back to rest early." ”

This weeding is a tiring job, especially the kind that takes a lot of money.

After two hours of drying, Qin Xi stood up straight, stretched his waist, and the clicking sound sounded, feeling that the situation was better than before, and he stretched his waist and became more comfortable.

As for the grass, there is still more than half of it that has not been pulled, and there is still some dryness!

After doing these three points of land, there are six points of work, which is not much, but she is already very satisfied, and the matter of earning points is still handed over to her brother!

She is responsible for raising the rabbits, and when the time comes, she can sell them for money and go to the black market to buy food.

If she could, Qin Xi really wanted to take a small bench to sit on and pull weeds, in this way, the speed would be much slower, but it was more friendly to her waist, anyway, she had a lot of time, so she could spend it here slowly.

It's a pity that she still has to save face, she is afraid that if she does this, she will be drowned by the spittle of the villagers, so she still dispelled this idea.

Liu Mei, who was next to her, saw that Qin Xi stood up and rested, and greeted her with a smile: "Xiaoxi, is it hot!" I have water here, why don't you come and take a sip? ”

"It's very scorching, and if you get heat stroke, it's not good."

Now that the time has come to more than nine o'clock, the sun that only feels warm in the morning is about to become a spicy stove, and Qin Xi has already put on a straw hat with sunscreen on his head.

This hat is still very necessary to wear, after all, the sun is so hot now, if you don't wear it, your head will be sunburned for a long time, and the temperature of your head will not drop for a long time, and you will suffer from heat stroke.

Some time ago, it had been raining, the water vapor had not completely dried up, and it was exposed to the scorching sun, and it directly became water vapor rising, and the people who worked in the fields were like steamed buns on a steamer, steaming and drying, and the sweat on their heads was like not wanting money, desperately flowing down, and after a while, the clothes on their chests, backs, and backs were all wet, and if they took off their clothes now and twisted them, they could wring out water beads.

"No need, I brought water, just drink my own, you can keep it and drink it slowly!"

After all, this day is not just hot today, since the rain stopped, the sun has been thundering every day to breathe, the first two days were fine, now at noon when the hottest time, the temperature can even reach 356 degrees, which is very scary.

You know, this is the seventies, the ecological environment at this time is still very good, the population is not as much as the later generations, the usual summer, 323 degrees, has been the sky, this year after the rain stopped, directly pulled to 356 degrees, and continue to rise meaning, can not stand, is really unbearable.

In the summer in the village, there are no ice coke popsicles, let alone electric fans and air conditioners, and all they have are cold water and cattail fans from the well.

Qin Xi sometimes can't sleep at night, after eleven or twelve o'clock, he will get up and take a cold shower, it is too hot, he sleeps all over sweat, sticky, he can't do it, he doesn't take a bath, he keeps thinking about it in his head, and he can't sleep at all.
