Rebirth 1984 Wife and children are on the hot bed

In the field.

There are many villagers harvesting corn around. The sky is blue and white clouds are blooming. The breeze blows and the corn leaves rustle.

As more and more corn poles were knocked down, the surrounding sight lines became wider and wider.

There is also the faint aroma of corn and moist earth floating in the air.

"You are a real person. Our child is sensible, so I just want to help with more work."

My mother was dissatisfied and said to my father Xu Houtian.

She held the steamed bun in her left hand, and the fried pork slices with green beans in her right hand with chopsticks, hanging in the air.

"If she doesn't help, we can finish it." Dad hummed in a low voice, but didn't say anything more.

Xu Dahai smiled instantly.

Many people who have never lived in rural areas may think that farmers are very happy when harvesting food, with faces full of joy of harvest.

The reality is.

When I first arrived at the farm, I was happy before I started working; after I finished my work for the day, I was also happy when I was hauling food home.

But during the day, it was actually very painful and tiring, and quarrels often occurred.

"Well, the yolk of this salted duck egg is dripping with oil! It's so well-salted, Xiao Tingzi, do you want to eat it?"

Wang Xiuxiu said with a smile.

"Yeah, eat, eat, eat!"

The little girl is very happy. The yolk of salted duck eggs is the most delicious.

After finishing the meal, Xu Dahai lay on the corn straw and rested for a while. The sun was shining brightly, so he raised his arms to block it.

I only rested for about ten minutes.

Xu Dahai got up when he heard his father and mother starting to work, and there were whispers of conversation and the sound of movement.

Wang Xiuxiu, second sister Xu Mei, and Xu Juan also started working.

However, the three little girls were still sleeping on the corn stalks. The dogs were lying next to them. The adults smiled knowingly and did not call them.

……

Ka Ka Ka ~

It was three o'clock in the afternoon in a blink of an eye.

The growing corn poles were gradually reduced, and the goal was almost completed. Xu Dahai, who was exhausted and his arms were sore, couldn't help but cheer up and speed up the corn poles.

Only half an hour passed.

Xu Yeliang came from the north with a piece of watermelon in his arms, a cigarette in his mouth, and a look of exhaustion on his rough face.

Under the sunlight, the red melon pulp and black melon seeds are so attractive.

"Hey! It's so fast to work. My land is much smaller, but we can't finish it today. Let's finish it tomorrow. Come and eat watermelon!"

"Where did you get the watermelon from?"

"It grows from the south side of the corn field, and no one breeds it. It's wild!"

Xu Yeliang said with a smile, "Ka ka ka!" He broke open the watermelon and handed it to a few little girls.

That piece of watermelon is not particularly large.

After giving it to several little girls, Xu Juan and Wang Xiuxiu ate another piece and then it was gone.

There aren't many stalks of corn left, so my father, Xu Houtian, can work alone while my mother goes to help break the corn.

Xu Dahai stood on the ground talking and smoking with Xu Yeliang.

The latter glanced at the tractor parked in the field, his face full of envy.

"It's great to have a tractor. You can load all the corn from this field with just one tractor bucket, right?"

If we use an ox cart to pull it, it will take a lot of effort. The ox cart moves very slowly, so it may take several trips. "

Xu Yeliang's family's land can actually be completed easily today.

But the transportation is not good, the oxcart moves slowly, and the amount transported at one time is very small, so I don’t dare to continue breaking the corn.

If the broken corn cannot be transported today and is piled on the ground, someone may come and steal it at night. Even if no one actually steals it, everyone still feels that it is very easy to lose it psychologically.

"Absolutely. Do you use a tractor at home? If you do, just say it."

"Then...are you free tomorrow afternoon? I want to harvest the land in Beiwa, and it's also corn."

Xu Yeliang was a little embarrassed, but he felt that he got along well with Xu Dahai, and it didn't seem to be a big problem if he used it for a while.

"Okay! We'll almost be able to load the car by then. Just call me."

Xu Dahai readily agreed, and it was just a round trip. The loading and unloading were all done by Xu Yeliang and his family, so it was not too troublesome.

Xu Yeliang wiped out his cigarette butts and went back happily.

Xu Dahai also walked into the fields and began to help pack some of the corn into bags and tie it in the mouth.

Just put part of it into a bag, and put the rest directly into the truck bed, or carry it on the back of a basket, throw it by hand, or carry it in a bag.

da da da da ~

Xu Dahai drove the tractor from the north to the west of the farmland. He drove very slowly, and the others quickly loaded the corn into the truck.

Go fast!

But it’s also very tiring!

The three little girls also helped throw it, with large beads of sweat appearing on their foreheads.

The tractor made a huge noise, which made my ears buzz, and I had to shout when talking. However, after driving back and forth in the field a few times, most of the corns were loaded.

Stop the tractor.

Lifting the last bagged corn onto the truck and stacking it around the tractor body is equivalent to raising the side of the truck.

You can also put some loose corn in the middle.

"Go home! I finished this piece of land in one day, and I did a lot of work today!"

Xu Dahai and his father tied the corn on the truck bed with a rope several times, and then they were ready to go home.

Evening breeze.

The red light of the setting sun shines on the earth, and many villagers are transporting corn to their homes on the dirt road in the wild.

"Moo~"

Some old cows would bark twice, and the tired-looking villagers also had relaxed smiles on their faces.

Many children were lying on the corn on the cart, dangling, holding dogtail grass in their mouths, and looking at the sunset in the sky.

Xu Dahai can feel their comfort and enjoyment.

da da da~

After his parents all got on the truck bed, Xu Dahai drove the tractor home.

Time flies, and five days have passed in the blink of an eye.

Xu Dahai also helped Xu Yeliang's family transport corn, and the latter wanted to treat him to a drink to express his gratitude. However, it is the busy farming season, so he will make a note of it for now and drink it later.

This morning.

Xu Dahai drove a tractor to help his grandparents collect corn.

The morning mist is drifting, and the chirping of insects is still loud. It’s just that you have to wear long sleeves and long pants to avoid the cold.

Turns out he just got here.

Before he got off the tractor, Qingbei, the leading dog who followed him, sensed something was wrong and rushed straight into the corn field.

Several other dogs followed closely behind, very fast.

"What? Is it a hare? Or a pheasant?"

Xu Dahai got off the tractor and was about to take down farm tools, fertilizer bags and other things from the bed.

Sudden.

Whoosh!

The corn pole shook, and a half-sized wild boar jumped out of the corn field. The dogs followed closely behind, and the leading dog Qing Bei opened his mouth and bit the wild boar's right hind leg.

"Will!!!"

Huge pain came from his legs, and the wild boar immediately screamed crazily.
