Chapter 33: Lovely Cousins

Yang Chunsheng gave the work of Yangchang to his daughter-in-law after a while.

Wang Zhaodi was much more relaxed today than the previous two days, picked up the wooden shovel and began to raise it.

Yang Xingwu looked at his mother's busyness, and couldn't help but feel a lot of emotion, but he didn't expect to see this kind of primitive scene of beating wheat fields again after many years.

Yang Xingwu watched his mother's movements slow down, and hurriedly ran over to take over the work in his mother's hands.

From the beginning of the afternoon to the end of the field, the sky gradually became dark.

Today is June 8th, close to the summer solstice, and the days are getting longer and longer, which leaves plenty of time for the villagers to threw wheat and raise the field.

After the field was over, Yang Chunsheng beckoned everyone to take bags of wheat from the car.

Most of the bags are urea bags, Yang Xingwu took many yellow urea bags from the rack car, Yang Xiaohong and Yang Xiaolan were responsible for opening the bags, and the family loaded the good wheat into them.

There were twenty-five bags in a row, and the last bag was only half a bag, and there were several bags of wheat husk, which were good for feeding the chickens.

Yang Chunsheng saw this scene, and after counting it several times in a row to confirm that it was correct, a relieved smile appeared on his face.

"Yes, yes, it's a good year!"

Yang Chunsheng said very happily.

Yang Xingwu was a little curious.

"How, how do you know?"

When Yang Chunsheng heard his son's words, he was busy for three days, and the joy of the harvest diluted a lot of fatigue, and he was in a good mood and gave his son a math problem.

"Then I'll test you! This bag can hold about 110 catties, a total of 24 bags full of bags, and a small half bag I checked, first count 40 catties, after drying the wheat will shrink by about one percent, how much wheat is left? ”

Yang Xingwu listened to his father's words, isn't this very simple mathematics? It's a bit of a fuss to test yourself as a high school student, right?

Thinking of this, Yang Xingwu quickly gave an answer.

"2412 pounds!"

Yang Chunsheng was stunned when he heard this.

"Really? Don't make a mistake! ”

"Da, how is it possible, I am very good at math, and I will have 2680 pounds without shrinking......"

Yang Xingwu said that he suddenly reacted here.

The wheat produced by six acres of land can reach 2,412 catties after drying, and the average yield per mu is 402 catties.

This is proper high-quality wheat!

In the early eighties, the yield of wheat per mu only exceeded 400 catties, which basically exceeded 70% of the land.

Ten out of ten fertile fields with sufficient water and fertilizer have a maximum yield of 500 catties per mu.

Thinking of this, Yang Xingwu understood why his father was so excited, it turned out that his father only thought that there would be a bumper harvest this year, but he was still taken aback when he heard the number of catties he calculated.

Yang Xingwu calculated it again for his father, and explained every step very thoroughly, and Yang Chunsheng became more and more happy after hearing it.

The family was busy pulling the wheat back into the yard and stacking it.

It took three times in a row to finish pulling, and the wheat that had just fallen off could not be stored directly, and it had to be exposed to the scorching sun for three or four days to meet the requirements of long-term storage.

Benefiting from the joy of the harvest, Yang Chunsheng took out the treasured loose wine and drank a few glasses with his two sons.

Yang Chunsheng, who had drunk wine, slept very comfortably this night.

The next day, the family slept until dawn.

The wheat is threshed and the rest is mainly dried.

Yang Chunsheng took his eldest son to help his father's family cut wheat until noon yesterday, and the ten acres of land were mowed for two and a half days, and the speed was not slow.

Today, my father's side is mainly drying wheat, and I only started to grind wheat in the afternoon, and my family is not so busy today except for drying wheat, so the family rarely has a good night's sleep.

After breakfast, Yang Chunsheng dragged a large family to load the wheat into the truck and pulled it to yesterday's wheat field.

First, he took a big broom and swept the dust, and then poured all the wheat in the bag on the ground, and after pulling all the wheat over and pouring it on the ground, he spread it on the ground with a wooden rake, and waited for the sun to dry.

Yang Chunsheng handed over the work of watching wheat to the little girl, mainly to prevent birds from eating wheat, and at the same time instructed Yang Xingwu to go home to rest, read and study.

The college entrance examination is less than a month away, and today next month is the last day of his college entrance examination.

Yang Chunsheng was afraid of delaying his son's study, so after finishing the main things at home, he asked Yang Xingwu to go home and pay attention to rest and study.

Yang Xingwu heard his father's words, and immediately nodded, for more than half a month, except for the last few days, he had to get up early every day to endorse.

As a villager, facing such a start, he knows that only by eating the hardships of learning can he not suffer the hardships of life in the future.

These days, I have been busy with my family, tired and lack of oxygen, and harvesting wheat is a nightmare!

This is still the case that half of the ears of wheat have been sold, and if 12 acres of land are done like this, the degree of tiredness is not as simple as doubling.

After all, life is not a math problem, as long as the results are calculated, regardless of the fatigue level of work during the period, etc.

Yang Xingwu was deeply touched by this, he knew that this college entrance examination was a great opportunity for him to leap into the dragon gate, and only by seizing the opportunity could he take advantage of the situation!

Yang Xingwu returned home and began to review, and studied until he had a meal at noon, felt a little sleepy, and made up for sleep.

After waking up in the afternoon, I continued to read.

When I was tired of studying, I walked around the small courtyard, came to the vegetable garden to explore the treasure, and saw the yellowed tomatoes picked down casually, wiped them with my hands, and did not wash them, but gnawed them directly.

I saw that the small melon planted by his mother was already the size of a glass ball, and he would probably be able to eat it when he came back next month.

After resting for a while, I resumed reading the book.

In the evening, Yang Xingwu went to the wheat field and couldn't help but be a little puzzled when he saw no one.

After waiting for a while, he saw his younger brother running around with a cart, followed by two little ones.

My little sister is also among them.

As the name suggests, the frame car is a car on this wheel, there is a depression stuck on the middle of the horizontal bar, the frame is stuck on it and can walk, lift the frame, it becomes a child's toy, and the child pushes the car wheel all over the village.

The most valuable thing about the rack car is also here.

Now there are two wheels in the family, one of his cousins pushing the ground and the other of his little sister pushing the village to sway, and after a while, he will run back to see the wheat.

Yang Xingwu saw this scene and shouted:

"Little Red, Little Tiger, Little Leopard, Little Phoenix come here!"

Yang Xiaohong pushed the cart and ran to the wheat field, and when she saw her second brother standing there, she wanted to turn around and run back, but she didn't expect to be stopped by the second brother, so she reluctantly pushed the cart to Yang Xingwu.

The other three didn't have this awareness, and when the little guys heard the shout, they immediately ran to Yang Xingwu and shouted:

"Second brother, second brother!"

Several people shouted louder than the other, and Yang Xingwu was straight at watching.

A pair of small hands stretched out to Yang Xingwu and said:

"Second brother, do you eat mulberry seals?"

Yang Xingwu saw that the little guy was holding mulberries in his open palms, and the red ones were very gratifying!
