Parents are busy farming

Chapter 242 Autumn Harvest Completed

The magpies must have built a nest in her house today. After dinner in the morning, Mrs. Su's personal nanny suddenly came.

"Hello, mama! What brought you here today?" Ye Zifen said hello to Mammy Su while returning the greeting.

Aunt Su smiled and said: "My master heard from Liu Dianshi of the county government that your parents are back, and told the old lady. The old lady ordered me to come and have a look. If they really came back, we would hurry up and take care of them." I admit it!"

Ye Zifen nodded and took Nanny Su into the house.

Mrs. Feng saw a carriage parked at the door and quickly prepared tea.

When they entered the room, they also came in with tea.

After Mrs. Feng served tea to Aunt Su, she withdrew.

Zi Zifen said with a smile: "I'm back. I've been busy with the autumn harvest recently, and I haven't had time to visit the old lady. Is it okay if we come to visit in a few days when the house is not busy?"

When grandma heard this, she quickly said: "Okay, why not? It's just that the old lady can't wait any longer. I will go back and tell her the good news. If the old lady knows, she will be happy!"

"Then I'll leave it to you!" Ye Zifen said politely.

Because Magistrate Su has a high family background, her family really can't take the initiative.

"How's Mrs. Su doing lately?" Ye Zifen didn't want to mention her at first, but who asked her to be the county magistrate's wife!

When Grandma Su heard this, she sighed, "You don't know, lately the wife of the Qian family often comes with Mrs. Fu. Our old lady has never liked them, but we can't control them too closely! We can only get sulky!"

When Zi Zifen heard this, she couldn't help but sigh. Three like-minded people gathered together, and they didn't know what kind of jealousy was brewing!

Aunt Su could say that since Ye Zifen was an outsider, she didn't want to say anything, she just smiled.

After seeing off Nanny Su, Ye Zifen went to the Ye family's fields.

Today, Old Man Liu was asked to send a message to Li Song, asking him to send her some radish, carrot and cabbage seeds.

Li Daniu pulled the sheep dung into the ground, and Ye Yongrui was watering it. The glorious task of spreading sheep dung was naturally handed over to the four cousins.

There was a smell when they came home at night, and Ye Zifen did not allow them to eat without washing themselves.

So now that she has nothing to do, she can go to see her father.

Several day laborers in Ye's field were prying sorghum. Ye Yongwang and Lao Li took sickles to cut off the sorghum ears, tied them into bundles, and threw them onto the bullock cart.

"Dad!" Ye Zifen came to Ye Yongwang's side.

"Have you finished it there?" Ye Yongwang asked.

"I've finished planting the corns, but I haven't started on the other ones yet. It's still early. I plan to plant the radish and cabbage before doing the other things." Ye Zifen explained while helping.

Ye Yongwang nodded and said, "I plan to plant all the land at home into winter wheat!"

"Okay! The cotton can be pulled out now, and winter wheat can be planted there." Ye Zifen suggested.

Ye Yongwang also echoed: "We will plant winter wheat this year, so we won't have to work so hard next year. Are you planning to plant cotton over there?"

Ye Zifen nodded, "Twenty acres of land to grow cotton!"

They loaded a cart of sorghum, rushed to Ye Yongrui's house, and threw the sorghum directly onto the roof, so that the sorghum would dry quickly.

This is physical work, and you can't do it if you don't have any strength in your arms.

Ye Zifen went up to the roof, and someone threw him up from the ground, and she caught it on top.

After a few days, they finally finished planting radishes and cabbage, and started harvesting peanuts again.

This time, because there was so much land, Ye Zifen also called Cui Hai and Lu Dahe back from Zhuangzi.

The work speed is much faster.

Instead of picking the peanuts off the vine, she had them thrown together onto the roof.

After they are all dried, drop them lightly and the peanuts and soil will fall off the vines, which will save you a lot of trouble.

Then came the various beans, which she brought to the threshing floor and dried there.

The ox-pulled stone roller directly presses out the beans.

After cleaning it, it was stored in the warehouse on Zhuangzi.

Finally, everything was taken home, and before they could rest, they started sowing again, this time with winter wheat.

She asked Li Song to send over several types of wheat seeds.

It took two days to apply fertilizer and water the ground with great enthusiasm.

Fortunately, there were two long-term workers to help, otherwise the brothers and sisters would have been exhausted.

After the land dries a little, everyone starts plowing and leveling the land.

The land was sorted out seven days later.

At this time, Ye Zifen asked the two long-term workers to go back to Zhuangzi, because they still had to prepare the flour brought out by the caravan.

This time we need to add twenty more cars. The flour they prepared before was definitely not enough, so they needed to grind some more.

Ye Zifen divided the forty acres of land into eight pieces and planned to plant two types of wheat together. One species per plot.

"Why do you have to go through so much trouble? Just one variety per piece of land is enough?" Ye Zining asked.

Ye Zifen said with a smile: "I don't know how to tell you yet. If you can come back when the wheat is harvested next year, how about I tell you?"

Ye Zining said loudly: "Okay! I will definitely be back when the time comes."

Ye Zifen reminded: "Feng County is in the south, and the wheat in Feng County matures first, so when they start harvesting wheat there, you can just come back!"

Several cousins ​​nodded after hearing this, indicating that they understood.

Then several people divided the work and cooperated. One person pulled the carving in front, and the other placed the seeds in the funnel and gently buried the soil with their feet.

They were divided into four groups, and there were exactly one border and eight ridges in one circle.

She did not hire part-time workers for this autumn harvest and planting, just a few of her own family members. Firstly, there were six more strong laborers in the family suddenly, and secondly, Ye Zifen also wanted to take them to experience the hardships of farmers.

Ye Zifei is no longer complaining at the beginning.

Ziwei admires Zifen the most. She is serious about her work, asks questions when she doesn't understand, and doesn't say any nonsense.

The most valuable ones are a few cousins, they are truly good sons and daughters.

After the wheat was planted, they did not sit idle and went to Zhuangzi again, because Zhuangzi began to collect rent.

This time, Ye Zifei, Ye Ziwei, and Ye Yongrui did not go, so Ye Zifen asked them to take a rest.

Although there is no need to go to the ground on Zhuangzi, lifting and moving is common.

I brought a few cousins ​​there to practice how to deal with people and prevent them from being deceived by honest people.

Insight into world affairs is knowledge, and human feelings are learned.

The four brothers were shocked again. They didn't expect that the little girl had so many properties at the age of eleven.

The most important thing is that the little girl Zi Zifen can still endure hardships and hardships, and there is no distance between her and them.

Recalling Wang Tinghe's attitude towards her, they were even more puzzled.

"Why do aunties do this to you? You are so outstanding!" Zhi Meng secretly asked Zhi Fen

Ye Zifen was not angry, but said in his ear: "Because my excellence can only make her overshadowed! I was raised by my aunt."

Ye Zimeng seemed to understand immediately and nodded.

Ye Zifen only thought it was funny.

There is another person who is obviously older than her, but looks like a younger brother.

When all the dust settled, Ye Zifen's tired cheeks were already sunken.

This made Mrs. Feng very distressed. She made different kinds of food every day, just hoping that Ye Zifen could eat a few more bites.

Ye Zifen didn't expect that such a big change would occur after just a month of busy work.

Working the same way, several cousins ​​became black and strong.

The leaves are not black but look like they just crawled out of the graveyard.
