Watching the yellow rice grains being poured down in rows and then threshed, Yang Chen felt that the taste was heavy, just like the ears of grain that had already been bent.

As soon as the morning dawned, Yang Chen and his father carried the machine to the edge of the field, and the people who were earlier than them had already started the machine with a bang.

Yang Chen took the basket from his mother's hand and said, "Mom, did anyone die yesterday? How did I hear the sound of gongs and firecrackers!"

"It should be from the cliff mouth of the Zeng family, and it was rumored a few days ago, saying that he was going to die! Alas, this is about to be busy with farm work, and the dead people in the family are busy at both ends!"

What are the young people in the village now! They are all old men, and there are fewer middle-aged people like Yang Chen's father.

Yang Chen had to come as a family of three to harvest the four acres of grain.

Of course, the harvest is happiness and rations, Yang Chen will not have any complaints, he wields a sickle to put the millet in the rice pot, and his father Yang Shengli is busy putting the wires from home.

In the past, people in the village did not do much to connect wires directly to bare wires in the open air, but the county and township governments have always emphasized that electricity is a state thing, and hanging directly on bare wires is theft of state property, and there is a fine at least and prison at most.

After repeated persuasion, the villagers also changed this problem, besides, this is not very safe, and it is easy to cause electricity accidents.

After a while, the machines of many houses in the village rang out, and the scene of working people was in full swing.

Because on the side of the machine-cultivated road, Yang Chen decided to use a wheelbarrow to transport the ready-made grain.

This is much more time-saving and labor-saving than using the shoulder pick, fortunately, Yang Chen also has a lot of strength, but no matter how tricky you are, this thing can only be moved home with force, and it will not walk back on its own.

Before the advent of agricultural mechanization, every household continued to do this for thousands of years.

Manpower has always been considered the cheapest energy source in China.

Because people, as long as they are not hungry, they have endless energy.

In a situation like Yang Chen's hometown, where land is contracted to households, it is also difficult to develop mechanized large-scale production.

Ten years later, some experts called for the resumption of land contracts from the majority of farmers and the use of farms to increase agricultural productivity.

Even ten years later, Yang Chen felt that this idea was too unrealistic, let alone ten years ago.

Whether it was 10 years ago or 10 years later, the peasants are still the most important group of people in this society, although urbanization has reached 50% in some places or even 70%, and when the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation has been completed by 62%, the cities still cannot provide more jobs for college students and laid-off workers, let alone ask most farmers to wash their feet and go ashore.

If nothing else, you can ask the farmers in Yang Chen's hometown to hand over the land!

When the land compensation did not reach or was close to the compensation range in the suburbs of the city, even Yang Chen was unwilling to hand over his family's land easily.

This is the root of the livelihood of farmers.

There are also many posts on the Internet accusing the peasants of being the biggest vested interests in this society, saying that they not only occupy land, but also go to the city to rob the resources of the city people, and are also subsidized by the state.

For such a post, Yang Chen generally doesn't bother to pay attention to it.

Yang Chen pushed two bags of millet home, and found that Liao Qingxi, the girl, had not gotten up yet!

Of course, Yang Chen would definitely not really drive her to the ground.

Now I don't even want my own girls to work in the fields, let alone the guests.

Yang Chen's sister Yang Xi followed adults to the ground when she was a child, but the children at this time are not playing at home.

Just as Yang Chen was about to wake up Liao Qingxi for breakfast, Liao Qingxi stretched his waist and walked out with a hazy face, "Cousin, it seems that there were a lot of lice crawling on me last night!"

Yang Chen took a closer look, and sure enough, the little girl was bitten with some red spots.

"It's okay, just spray some toilet water tonight, wash your face and eat!"

"Have you all been busy all morning?" Liao Qingxi saw a few piles of millet poured on the concrete floor of the yard.

"The sun is a little lighter in the morning, and the work is early at noon!"

"Xiaoxi girl, did you sleep well last night?" Qin Shuzhen made a basin of washing water and asked Liao Qingxi to wash his face.

"It's okay, it's actually quite cool at night, but there are mosquitoes or lice. Thank you, cousin!"

Yang Chen still can't figure out why this title should be, these distant relatives in Huaxia are really endless, his mother should be Liao Qingxi's father's cousin, so what should Liao Qingxi call Yang Chen's mother do, cousin or cousin!

Fortunately, future children will not have these troubles.

They just need to know their grandparents, grandparents.

At that time, what cousins, cousins, cousins, sisters-in-law, brothers-in-law, aunts and uncles will no longer exist.

"Hehe, there are many mosquitoes in the countryside, if you are not used to staying, let your cousin send you back!"

"I won't go, I'll help you harvest the grain!"

"That's what you kids in the city can do!

"And my cousin!" Yang Han also accosted on the side.

After breakfast, Liao Qingxi had to follow Yang Chen to the ground!

The sun was gradually rising, and he didn't want the brook to go back with a pimple, and threshing the grain was not an easy task.

"You just stay at home and help my mother cook later!" Yang Chen looked at the grain pile in the yard, "Otherwise, you can help me spread out the grain!"

Yang Chen found a pair of clippers, pulled and pushed, and soon spread out a pair of grain piles.

"It's part of threshing, and it's a very important part! Stay at home! The sun is shining outside. Yang Chen found a straw hat for Liao Qingxi, and seeing that she was wearing a loose clothes, she already looked like a rural girl.

Yang Chen was threshing the rice, but saw Liao Qingxi coming over.

"Didn't you stay at home? Look at this day, the sun is so hot!" Yang Chen looked up at the sky, not daring to face the sun. Luckily, he also wears a straw hat.

"My cousin asked me to bring you some water. Cousin, what is this stuff made of, sweet, sour, and a little bit of wine!

Yang Chen didn't look at it and knew what she was talking about, mash egg soup!

"Mash, also known as rice stuffing, you should have eaten it in Taiwan!"

Liao Qingxi shook his head, indicating that he had not eaten it.

Yang Chen took the spoon, filled half a bowl, and drank it all in one gulp!"It tastes really good!"

"Xiaoxi, you go back!"

"I'm going to help you cut the grain!" Liao Qingxi looked at Yang Chen holding the rice stalk by the machine, and he was a little scared when he looked at it, so he didn't ask to do what Yang Chen was doing, but pointed to what Yang Han was doing.

Fortunately, this paddy field has been drained, Yang Chen nodded, if she didn't let her cut a few handfuls, she would not be reconciled, Yang Chen pulled out the power and gave her a tooth sickle, "You look at me, when cutting, it should be like this, hold the handle of the sickle with one hand, and grab the distance of more than 10 cm from the cutting place with the other hand, and then pull it steadily, it's fine!"

Yang Chen demonstrated a few times, "Be careful, don't cut your hands!" Yang Chen looked at Liao Qingxi with a look of eagerness and confidence.

Rural children can't wait to hide at home and watch TV, who would ask to cut the grain by themselves like her.

Yang Chen's younger brother is different, although he is only 10 years old, he is also well-behaved and sensible, and knows how to do some work within his power to help the family.

How much strength the little girl had, and she hadn't learned to use it yet, and then Yang Chen saw that Liao Qingxi hadn't cut a single rice stalk for half a day.

"Be careful, don't cut your hands, when the time comes, my uncle and grandfather will blame me, I can't afford it!

"I see that you cut very easily, how can I keep cutting!" Liao Qingxi saw that Yang Han was also very skilled.

"You think rice is so good!"

Liao Qingxi's face turned red, she didn't believe it!

Fortunately, after a few experiments, she has mastered a little skill.

"It's so hot!" Liao Qingxi was afraid of being cut by the leaves of the rice, so he wore long sleeves.

"Okay, go back, or sit there in the shade for a while!"

Liao Qingxi also ran to the shade of the tree and fanned the wind with a straw hat.

Yang Han also ran to the shade of the tree to take a dip.
