Chapter 163 Another Way to Prevent Leeches

In the past, the most capable members of the Chen family were the brothers Chen Yan and Chen Ping, and little Zheng was also a capable person.

As a woman, she is just as good at work as the men in the family.

Now that the family has been divided, only the old and the young are left.

Several young and strong guys were being cunning and had different ideas in mind, and they were exhausted and out of breath after just a few moves.

At this rate, it will probably take four or five days to finish the work.

This made Chen's father even more regretful. Life was so good in the past, but now even turning the soil can break his old waist!

well.........

The three of them worked for a while and rested for a while, and they didn't get much done after working for the whole afternoon.

Before it got dark, Wang was already shouting that she couldn't work anymore and wanted to go back. Father Chen had no choice but to tell them to pack up and go back.

At this time, Old Man Gu from the village and his three sons were also rushing home with their tools. When they passed by Chen's field, they saw that Chen's family had only turned over a small piece of land.

The Chen family came with three people. Although there is one less person than our family, it shouldn’t be that bad, right?

Old man Gu was walking in front and suddenly stopped.

He stood on the haystack next to him and rubbed the grass hard with the soles of his shoes, trying to clean the mud off the soles of his shoes.

The roads between the fields were so narrow that only one person could walk on them. He was blocked on the path between the fields, and the three Gu brothers followed him motionlessly.

It looks very impressive.

Old man Gu showed off everywhere without hesitation, "Brother Chen, have you finished turning over the land?"

Father Chen originally wanted to pretend not to see it, but unexpectedly, Old Man Gu burst into laughter when he saw him.

"We have already finished half of the work for the day. If my sons work harder tomorrow, we will be done!"

"Is this all the land you've turned over?"

Father Chen didn't want to pay attention to him. Seeing that he didn't answer, Old Man Gu continued to ask, "In previous years, your family turned the land the fastest in the village. Why can't you do it this year?"

"Oh, look at my memory!"

He slapped his thigh fiercely, "Your family has split up! Those two capable sons have been separated."

After saying this, he looked at Chen Kang, who was so tired that he couldn't even stand up, with disdain.

Tsk tsk tsk, you're useless after doing just a few steps and you're out of breath like that!

Anyone could hear the teasing meaning in his words, and the three brothers of the Gu family also raised their chins proudly behind them.

Apart from anything else, his brothers really look down on Chen Kang's character.

In the Chen family, only the brothers Chen Ping and Chen Yan are good people. I don’t know if Chen’s father is stupid to make the family into such a mess.

It’s only the first year since the separation, and they can’t even turn the soil properly. If they get old and can’t move anymore, won’t their family be ruined?

"Bah, it's none of your business. Just do your job well!"

"I feel bad for my family, and I want everyone to have more rest."

Father Chen was so angry that his face turned red, but he still maintained a stubborn attitude.

Old Man Gu originally just wanted to stab him and didn't want to escalate the fight, so he mocked him a few more times.

"Hahaha, then you should just have a good rest. You can rest until the end of the year before revising it."

After saying that, he raised his foot and left very proudly.

Chen's father was left standing there feeling very angry.

.........

After Chen Yan finished his work, the two wanted to go home immediately, but Chen Yan suddenly stopped.

Cui Yunzhu saw that he looked worried and knew what he was worried about.

Rubber shoe covers cannot be taken out casually, so they must not be given to Chen Ping to use. Chen Yan knows this very well.

But when he thought of the painful look on leeches' faces when they sucked human blood, Chen Yan became a little worried about his second brother.

"young married woman......"

"I know what you're worried about. It's just leeches, isn't it?"

It's just a leech. As soon as he heard his wife's relaxed tone, he knew that everything was settled!

"I have a recipe here, how about trying it?"

The man's eyes lit up after hearing this, and he immediately grabbed Cui Yuzhu's hand, "You really have a way, my wife, that's great!"

Cui Yunzhu took out a piece of soap from the space and handed it over. This was also learned in modern times.

Soapy water contains alkaline substances, which can effectively kill leeches.

So when you go to the fields, if you don’t have any protective gear, you can put soapy water on your legs and clothes.

Or you can just dip the soap in water and apply a thick layer on the clothes, which may have even better effects.

Soap is also sold in the town, which is called soap here.

However, only wealthy families can afford this thing. Ordinary people usually go up the mountain to pick soapberries and use them to wash their faces, clothes and hair.

After picking the soapberries from the soapberry tree, crush them before washing anything, then mix them with water. The water will then have a certain cleansing effect.

It washes very cleanly, so there is no need to spend money to buy soap.

Cui Yunzhu now took out the soap and gave it to Chen Yan, asking him to find Chen Ping, because the soap was more effective.

The man looked delighted, "Second brother will definitely not suffer this time. I will definitely praise you to him later."

"go quickly!"

Cui Yunzhu didn't plan to follow him and just waited for him there.

Although Chen Ping can be seen from here, his land is too far away.

It took a lot of effort to run up and down the ridges, and she really didn't have the strength to move.

Chen Yan took the soap, unpacked it and prepared to go.

Cui Yunzhu quickly stopped him, "If your second brother asks you about it later, just say that I made this pancreas myself."

"Otherwise he would definitely be reluctant to use it."

Well, if such a precious thing as pancreas was wasted like that, Chen Ping would be so heartbroken that he would never use it no matter what.

"You are still very careful!"

Chen Yan nodded and ran over quickly.

He had to get things done quickly so that he could go home with his wife.

Chen Ping had been turning the soil for the whole morning, but his speed was not as fast as Chen Yan's.

It was because in the morning, his legs were already full of leeches.

I didn't feel anything at the time, but when I was having lunch, the excruciating pain started to show up.

He has some difficulty walking now, so the progress in the afternoon is particularly slow. He is a little scared looking at the muddy paddy fields.

Hearing someone calling him from afar, he quickly got up and climbed onto the ridge of the field, only to see his third brother running towards him with something in his hand, but he didn't know what it was.

Chen Yan ran over and asked directly, "Second brother, were you bitten by a leech this morning?"

"Then he must have been bitten!"

The third brother is asking nonsense. It's inevitable that you will get bitten when you go to the fields.

Chen Ping's body was still in pain as he spoke, and he frowned, "But luckily I was only bitten a few times this morning."

He lifted up his trouser legs and three or four red wounds were clearly visible.

Chen Yan handed over the soap and said, "Second brother, this soap was made by my wife herself. She said she learned this from the elders in the village."
