Chapter 79: Borrowing a Threshing Machine

"I'm not thinking about things, so I'm late." Shen Lan said with a smile.

It was also at this time that everyone found that Xu Yiyun was carrying something that they didn't know what it was.

Thinking of what useful fertilizer Su Xiaoxia made before, and then let the rice ripen within a few days, and now Xu Yiyun was carrying a strange thing, everyone immediately guessed whether Su Xiaoxia had made it up.

So someone washed his hands with the scarce water in the field, and walked towards the ridge, asking as he walked: "Shen Lan, what is the thing that the third child of your family is carrying?" Isn't this your precious daughter-in-law making up again? ”

Shen Lan heard the sound and looked at Su Xiaoxia: "Do you want to tell everyone?" ”

"Say, if they can't ask, they will still ask the village chief to come and ask, and then another group of people will come to the house to ask." Su Xiaoxia replied.

"Okay." Shen Lan nodded, and said loudly: "That's right, this is my family Xiaoxia made up, called threshing machine, this threshing machine can be harvested and pounded, it is convenient, and it doesn't even need manpower to hit it in the basket little by little, just need to step on it." ”

The drum of the foot threshing machine is composed of a detachable toothed plate cage, and the fixed mandrel is connected by three short shafts...... Install sticks and blades at both ends of the mandrel and between the large gear shafts......

However, these are all wooden, but where the iron pieces were originally used on the drum, sharp bamboo is used, and this principle is the same as that of a bicycle, as long as you step on the pedal, it will drive the wooden chain mechanism, and then drive the drum to rotate.

Of course, the process will not be as smooth as that of the machine, but it is enough for threshing rice.

As soon as the villagers heard such a novelty as the 'threshing machine', they put down their work one after another, and they all came over to follow Shen Lan and the others, they wanted to see what this threshing machine was like, and it could be carried to the field.

After coming to the field, Su Xiaoxia told Xu Yiyun how to install these three parts, and then personally cut a large handful of rice and put it on the board above the threshing machine.

"That's it?" Xu Yiyun asked suspiciously, this thing seems to be a novelty, but is it really useful?

Su Xiaoxia nodded, pointed to the position next to her, and said, "I'll fight, and when you go to cut the rice and hold it until you reach this, my mother will sit on the corner of the threshing machine, and then load the grain in the barn." ”

"Okay." Xu Yiyun and Shen Lan nodded together.

As for the villagers, they all stood on the side of the road and watched, because this paddy field was half a person shorter than the main road, so everyone could stand on it and see it clearly.

After Su Xiaoxia checked it, she stepped on the pedal with her right foot and pushed down hard.

At first, it was a bit stuck, after all, these parts were not mechanical, and the wood was not finely polished, so it took a little effort at first.

As she pedaled, the drum began to spin, from a slow to a rapid turn.

When she saw that she was almost done, she grabbed a handful of rice that was placed on it and reached inside, so that the head of the rice touched the roller.

With an indescribable sound, while everyone held their breath and stared, the rice was knocked down from the rice straw by the bamboo chips on the drum into the barn.

"There it is! Pregnant! Shen Lan's eyes were overjoyed, and her face was full of joy, as happy as if she had hugged her fat grandson.

She even bent down and grabbed a handful of grain in the barn, picked it up and looked at it, and said in surprise: "Good boy, it's cleaner than my hand, and it hits so much at once, so I don't have to worry about the slow harvest now......

What the villagers saw with their own eyes, their eyes were full of indescribable shock.

"Su Xiaoxia is so smart? Can you think of anything like this? ”

"Yes, this is too good, we never thought that there would be something that could be threshed, and you look at Su Xiaoxia, just step on it, it's convenient, this two fields, it is estimated that it will be done in one go, right?"

"I'm so envious, if my family has this, why do my family still need to work when it's not hot when I go out early and return late at night......"

"Huh! I think she must have seen it from somewhere, and then made it, I don't believe that she Su Xiaoxia would have such a smart brain! ”

Hearing this, some villagers replied: "Even if it looks like it from the book, at least Su Xiaoxia can make it, if it is you, can you?" ”

"I ...... I'm sure I can! ”

"Don't be ashamed, if you could, you would have done it a long time ago, and you still need to talk cool here?"

"I don't have a book to read!"

"It's useless for you to have a book, who doesn't know that you can't read a single word......

"Hahahaha!"

Su Xiaoxia didn't pay attention to the villagers' discussions, just focused on beating rice, although this labor-saving is also fast, but after a long time, you will still be tired, just take a very light dumbbell to exercise, do a few more sets, it will be too tired!

Xu Yiyun took a deep look at Su Xiaoxia's calm expression, and felt that she was amazing, there were so many ideas in his mind, and he was now looking forward to the wind valley machine and what wooden plough at home......

So next, Xu Yiyun cut the rice and put it in a pile, and put it next to Su Xiaoxia for her to take it.

And Shen Lan picked the unbeaten rice in the barn, and put the rice into the sack by the way, her mouth was open, and she couldn't close it, she was very happy.

The villagers watched for a long time and saw that the sun was getting stronger, so they planned to disperse and go back to their fields.

At this time, someone asked: "The third daughter-in-law, can you borrow Uncle Jiu to use the threshing machine after it runs out?" ”

It was Xu Jiu's uncle Xu He who spoke, whether he used the broiler chicken at home to exchange for wild boar meat last time, or the middle-aged man who helped Su Xiaoxia pull Zhu Yeqing away in the ancestral hall that day.

After all, this is not a mechanical threshing machine, although it is also noisy, Su Xiaoxia can still hear Uncle Xu Jiu's voice, so he took the time to reply: "Uncle Jiu, my family has nearly two acres of land, if you don't mind waiting for a day or two, I can lend it to you when the time comes." ”

When Uncle Xu Jiu heard this, he immediately smiled: "Don't worry, my family is busy working alone, and when I plant seedlings, I am a few days later than others, so the rice in my field can wait for two days." ”

"Okay, then I'll run out of it then, and let Xu Yiyun carry the threshing machine to your house."

"No, no, just come and get it yourself, don't bother the third child."

At this time, Xu Yiyun came back from cutting the rice in his arms, and also heard the conversation between Su Xiaoxia and Uncle Xu Jiu.

"It's okay uncle, let Xu Yiyun send it to you, this thing is a bit heavy, and ordinary people really can't carry it." Su Xiaoxia said without changing his face.

Xu Yiyun and Shen Lan: ???

Does this thing sink?

In fact, this thing is not sinking, but Su Xiaoxia deliberately said this, in order to make those who have bad intentions jealous, even if they want to do it to the threshing machine, it will take several people to come, and once several people come, it will be easy to be discovered.
