Chapter 126: October
The divorce of the second son of the Shen family soon spread throughout Shili and Eight Villages. Originally, there were still many people gossiping about the Shen family, but after hearing that the Wang family took a hundred yuan for the divorce, everyone said that the Shen family was kind.
But some people say that the Shen family is afraid that they have done something sorry for the Wang family to give so much money, divorce is a bad thing after all, the Shen family's family style is not good, and the son and daughter-in-law have divorced one after another.
Some people also compared Wang's and Du's, saying that Wang's got a hundred yuan, why didn't Du's have it?
Of course, the Du family didn't do it, and when they heard the news, they came to the door with a shy face, but naturally they were beaten out by Mrs. Ji. Because of a lot of things at home, Mrs. Ji did not go to live in the county seat for a long time, but stayed at home. There were two fewer laborers in the family all of a sudden, and Mrs. Ji wanted to do more work.
But there is a small Shen Yin at home who needs to be taken care of.
Sometimes Mrs. Ji came to take care of it, and sometimes Shen Xiangxi took care of it herself.
So Mrs. Ji still works for half a day as before.
When Mrs. Ji went to work, her aunt in the village pulled her to chat, and she inquired about Shen Xiangxi's marriage.
After all, Shen Xiangxi is the only tractor driver in the village, and he receives an allowance every month, and the Shen family can give 100 yuan to the Wang family, which proves that he still has some foundation.
Mrs. Ji was still listening a little seriously at first, but the more she chatted, the more bizarre it became, those seven aunts and eight aunts introduced were either divorced with babies or physically defective. In addition, Shen Xiangxi shook his head and said that he would guard his three daughters, so Mrs. Ji also stopped thinking about it.
Time flies, and it's October in the blink of an eye.
During this period of time, Shen Ruoqing has fully adapted to the school's learning progress, and two exams have been organized during the period, Shen Ruoqing did not take the first place this time, but took a third and second place. She is not discouraged, this result is the result of her hard work at home every day, and she is already satisfied. After all, there are people outside the world, there are people outside the sky, and there are always people who are better than themselves.
Because when it was time to be busy with farming, the school organized two more farming lessons to go to the farm to harvest rice.
This work is quite tiring, but Shen Ruoqing has been drinking Lin Spring water for a long time, and his physical strength has improved a lot, so he feels that he can cope with it.
During this time, every time she had a holiday, she would go back to her hometown in the countryside to find Grandpa Hao to learn ancient Chinese, and now she can read most of the ancient documents, and those ancient medical books in the space can barely be read. One of the medical books is about how to make medicines, there are various kinds of medicines for diseases, and there are all kinds of health medicines.
Mrs. Ji is actually tired all year round, and her body is a little deficient, although her body has improved a lot after taking Lingquan water for a long time, there are still some old diseases that cannot be cured, Shen Ruoqing wants to learn these pharmaceuticals well, and make some health medicine for Mrs. Ji to nourish her body. And she can add some spiritual spring water to it on the basis of these prescriptions, and the effect of the medicine will definitely be better.
Moreover, this pharmaceutical book not only records various strange prescriptions and health pills, but also records some poisons......
After reading it, Shen Ruoqing felt that the itching medicine he made before was too immature, and the effect was too short. If she had gotten these medical books earlier, she would definitely have made Liu Xinyi suffer a lot.
After reading so many prescriptions, Shen Ruoqing was interested in one of the ginseng health pills, which could save lives. It just so happened that Shen Ruoqing's medicine field had planted a lot of ginseng, which could be made for later use.
Because of the 2,000 yuan from selling ginseng, Mrs. Ji was willing to eat, and the food of the Shen family improved, although Mrs. Ji still often opened a small stove for Shen Ruoqing, but it no longer disgusted others.
After a short holiday in October, Shen Ruoqing and Shen Hansong returned to the village. Now is the time to be busy with farming, and Shen Ruoqing also went to the ground in order not to let Mrs. Ji work hard.
This made Mrs. Ji feel distressed.
"You haven't been in the field since you were a child, and there are still so many people in our family, which round will you get this little girl to work in the field? If you can't afford to be idle, just cook at home. ”
"Mom, why haven't I ever been on the ground? In the school farm, I have already done a lot of farm work, our family still belongs to your best craft, you can cook at home, I will go to the field for you. The aunt outside the province said that I was going to say that I was like a capitalist lady. ”
"I see who dares to say this, whoever says it, I will tear his mouth."
"Mom, I'm growing up, it's time to do some farm work, we are originally rural people, country people, if we really don't do any farm work, what will it be? I know it. ”
Mrs. Ji still didn't say anything about Shen Ruoqing in the end.
Everyone talked about Shen Ruoqing actually working in the field to earn centimeters.
"Yo, the old woman of the Shen family is finally willing to let her heart and soul baby go to the ground, this is really strange."
"This Ruoqing girl has never done farm work, is she here? Don't hold us back. ”
"Look at the delicate skin and tender face of the Shen family's girl, she is more delicate than those female intellectuals, I am afraid that this work is not as good as those female intellectuals."
"If you want me to say, we countrymen should go to the field to do farm work, this Ruoqing girl should have gone to the field a long time ago, how can there be a stay at home every day like before, no work has to be done, how can I find a good mother-in-law in the future?"
"That's not what I said, if a girl looks good, she will definitely marry into the city in the future, where do you need to be able to do farm work?"
Captain Tang is also worried, this Ruoqing girl looks like she has fine skin and tender meat, and it would be good to occasionally beat pigweed, now is the time of the autumn harvest, and she took the initiative to ask for the work of cutting grain, so can this girl stand it?
"Captain Tang, you don't have to take special care of me, you can do whatever you want. I also often went to the farm to learn farming at school, and I was able to do all these jobs. ”
"Okay, since you said so, you can team up with Mu Zhiqing, and the two of you will be in charge of the rice over there." Captain Tang still has the intention of taking care of him, Mu Bai is not only the best one among all the educated youths, but also rare in the village. And Mu Bai has a good relationship with the Shen family, so he will help him.
Shen Ruoqing, who was arranged by Captain Tang, didn't have any opinions, just like anyone else. However, after Mu Bai heard such an arrangement, his eyes involuntarily glanced at Shen Ruoqing.
He wanted to see Shen Ruoqing's reaction, but unfortunately, Shen Ruoqing didn't seem to have any reaction.
I don't know why, Mu Bai's heart is a little lost.
The harvest in the second half of the year is visible to the naked eye.
Everyone in the brigade is beaming, and this year they have used chemical fertilizers and increased their production a lot. The heavy grain looked at it at a glance, and it was very beautiful to look golden. And it's all solid, not hollow.
Heavy ears of rice are clustered into a sea of gold, which rustles in the autumn wind, accompanied by the chirping of insects, playing the music of harvest.
