From farming to business

The so-called wheat field in the village is actually a large piece of unused open space, but no matter how big it is, it has limitations. It must not be able to accommodate all the families in the village to dry the wheat.

Fortunately, each village harvests wheat differently, so it's not like they all came here at once. A little bit of discussion and staggering is enough for everyone to use.

The restless children will come with the adults and have fun among the piles of wheat. The older ones will be called back to help soon. The laughter of the children, the scolding of the adults and the The "rustling" sound of raising wheat can be heard in my ears, so the wheat field is always the busiest place during the harvest period every year.

Because he was very tired from harvesting the land yesterday, Yu Feng got up a little late today. After packing up, he ate something to fill his stomach. When he arrived at the wheat field, he was already in full swing.

He walked around and found the location of the Su family on the other side. He saw three people busy threshing and sifting for drying. He trotted over and said, "I'm so sorry, I got up late today."

"Boy Yu is here." Liu Hefang, who noticed him, stopped and smiled panting as he watched the people run away, "Hey, what's the rush, the three of us will hurry over here."

Sifting and drying wheat is not a big job, even children of a few years old in the family can help out, and agreeing to the other party's coming is just to let him have a fresh picture, it's never too late.

Yu Feng smiled and didn't say anything, the other party waved his hand and asked him to go to the side to help Su Yongyue spread the wheat. She and Su Dezhi didn't need to help, so he looked up, nodded and walked over.

Su Yongyue saw him when he came, but he didn't want to talk to him, he lowered his head and concentrated on spreading the ears of wheat, only now that people approached him did he look sideways.

Kneeling down beside him, Yu Feng smiled when he met his gaze, and then the other party looked away, so he could only look down at the plump ears of wheat, and reached out to pick one up, "This wheat grows really well."

He wanted to ease the embarrassment and sighed Su Yongyue but didn't want to cooperate. When he was talking, he stood up, pointed to the ears of wheat on the ground and raised his chin lightly towards him.

Yu Feng was stunned for a while before realizing that the other party probably wanted him to spread the ears of wheat, so he nodded quickly, watching the other party walk away from him, and pulled a rope to the other side where the ears of wheat had already been spread.

The other end of the rope was tied with a big stone roller. He had seen this thing when he was a child, and it was used for threshing ears of wheat. But at that time, animals like donkeys or cows were mostly used to pull it, and manpower was rarely used.

Seeing the not-so-strong man carry the rope on his back, he regained his senses when he was striding forward, put down the ears of wheat he was still holding and walked over, holding the rope behind his back, "I'll do it."

Su Yongyue, who was blocked by him, looked sideways at him, frowning slightly. He had seen how useless this guy was yesterday, and he didn't think he could do this kind of physical work.

As a twin, he actually couldn't do it when he was a few years younger, but because he didn't want to see his father working hard alone, he had to try anyway. Although the other party disagreed at first, he couldn't get rid of his stubborn temper. , Later, two people came in exchange.

And the man in front of him who sweats profusely after harvesting the wheat may not even be able to move the stone roller. There are not many wheat farms for this thing, and people in the village use it in turn, so they have to get rid of all the wheat today.

Because of his identity, he couldn't use his hands to push the opponent away, so he could only pull the rope to signal the opponent to let go, so don't delay his work here.

The other party's intention of rejecting him was obvious, Yu Feng hesitated for a while but still didn't let go, no matter how big he is, he can't just sit and watch a child doing physical work here, and spread the ears of wheat easily by himself, "Go and spread, I will Come and pull."

Su Yongyue frowned again, originally wanted to break free from his hand, but paused as if thinking of something, let go of the rope with a frown, took two steps back and raised her hand as a signal.

Yu Feng was a little surprised that he was so eloquent all of a sudden, but it was good that the other party was willing to step back. He put the rope on his back sideways, and strode forward with all his strength...

Su Yongyue's gaze dropped to the unmoving stone roller, then raised her eyes to look at the man who was a little stiff, silently curled the corners of her lips, and raised her arms around her chest.

The stone roller, which was heavier than he imagined, could not be pulled at all, and he looked sideways in embarrassment. Shuang'er was looking at him with his head tilted, with mockery in his eyes that couldn't be hidden.

Tightening his lips and closing his eyes, Yu Feng resignedly stretched out his hand to hand the rope back, holding his hurt pride in the other hand, and said, "I'll make the shop, you pull it."

Seeing his expression as if struck by lightning, Su Yongyue reached out to take the rope, with an obvious smile on his face, and suddenly felt that this guy was not so annoying anymore.

Yu Feng, who was squatting on the ground laying ears of wheat, seemed to have a gloomy back, gritted his teeth and secretly made up his mind that he must increase the amount of exercise in the future and improve his physical fitness as soon as possible.

But it's strange to say, judging from the condition of this body, he was probably a sick child before, but now he has no other symptoms except for being a little disabled.

He slowed down the movement of spreading the ears of wheat, did he die once, and took away all the diseases all over his body?He turned his eyes slightly, but it's not impossible, after all, he can resurrect his soul with a dead body.

"Cousin."

Piaoyuan's thoughts were pulled back by some familiar voices, Yu Feng turned his head and saw a young man standing a few steps away, pulling a cart of wheat, who should have come here to thresh and sift for drying.

He is no stranger to this young man, he is the one who was pushed down by Su Yongyue earlier, at that time he thought the two had a dispute, but what did the other party call him just now, cousin?

Su Yongyue, who was busy, stopped when she saw him, raised her hand to wipe the thin sweat from her forehead, frowned slightly and looked around him twice, her face looked better when she didn't see any extra people.

"The others are on the other side. I brought a cart of wheat by myself." Seeing his eyes, she knew what he was looking for. Su Cao replied, and then looked at the person who was standing up. Here?"

"I'll help." Seeing him asking himself, Yu Feng smiled. From the corner of his eyes, he saw the person next to him put down the rope pulling the stone roller, walked up to him in a few steps, and pinched his chin as soon as he raised his hand. He blinked blankly.

As soon as Su Yongyue turned the person's face sideways, she could see a thin scratch on the position of the mandible, which seemed to be left by scraping nails, and some scabs had already formed.

Su Cao was taken aback by his action, and when the other party let go of his hand, she raised her hand to touch it, staring at him with obvious questioning in her black eyes, she raised the corner of her mouth, and said, "It's okay, it's mother Sometimes I get angry..."

He didn't finish what he said, but not only Su Yongyue who was standing in front of him, but also Yu Feng who was a few steps away could understand that the child was probably beaten.

He turned his eyes around the two people. From the current situation, it seems that the relationship between them is not what he thought at all. There may have been a dispute last time, but it definitely has nothing to do with bullying or not.

"Cao'er is here, I haven't seen you for a few days." Liu Hefang, who was a little tired from sieving wheat and was about to take a break, saw Shuang'er pulling the cart, and raised her voice to greet her.

"Hey, I'm a little busy at home these days." Su Cao, who was being watched by her cousin and didn't know what to say, quickly turned her eyes away, and after responding to the woman, she also smiled at Su Dezhi who was looking over, and called out Sound Uncle.

Most of the young people got together because they had something to say, and Liu Hefang didn't bother them too much. Shuang'er walked with him.

Being interrupted by her like this, Su Yongyue put more pressure on her, and only raised her hand to pinch Shuang'er's face, which was half a head shorter than him, and retracted her hand when she saw him making a pained expression.

His cousin, who is more than one year younger than him, is good everywhere, but his personality is too soft, and he often swallows his anger when he is bullied. He can't see him the most, but he can't help it.

"I heard that my mother troubled you again in the field yesterday, I'm sorry, she... um..."

Before the person in front of him could finish speaking, Su Yongyue raised his hand and flicked on his forehead, and watched the other person cover it with his hand in pain, before curling up the corners of his mouth in satisfaction.

What those people did had nothing to do with this person, and it was not his fault to apologize. Besides, it was obviously that woman who was more angry at that time.

Being bouncing on the head in front of others made Su Cao a little embarrassed. He glanced at the man next to him, smiled and looked away, "If my cousin doesn't like it, then I won't talk about it. When I look back..."

"Su Cao! It's not for chatting with others that I asked you to pull a piece of wheat. If you don't come back quickly, you will be lazy every day!"

What she hadn't finished speaking was covered by the yelling from a distance, Su Cao looked back, and there was a woman looking at her with her hips on her hips in the distance, she probably couldn't wait for anyone to find her.

He didn't dare to say any more, this time the other party saw him talking to his cousin, he would definitely be reprimanded, and she would be even angrier if he delayed her, so he nodded and hurriedly pulled the car away.

Although it was a little far away, Yu Feng also recognized that the woman was the one who spoke to him in the field yesterday, he looked away and said, "Is that your second aunt's twin?"

When the person next to him lifted the boy's chin just now, he caught a glimpse of the red mark on the base of the other's ear, and he was not surprised that his temperament and physique were indeed similar to the Shuang'er he had heard before.

It's not a secret, Su Yongyue nodded and agreed, his second uncle's family has three children, a son and a daughter, and Su Cao as a twin.

The status of a woman is not as good as that of a man, and Shuang'er is even lower in the eyes of others. If ordinary people can marry a girl, they are still unwilling to marry a Shuang'er, let alone those who have money in their hands. Su Cao is naturally not welcomed by the relatives of that group of forces.

Right now Yu Feng doesn't understand the twists and turns, he just thinks that the second aunt of the other party is really acting improperly and is so vicious towards his own children.

He withdrew his gaze and looked at the person who was going to pull the stone roller again. Although the way he treated people was a bit unkind, and it was easy for others to misunderstand him, he was indeed soft inside.

Sensing the gaze on her, Su Yongyue raised her eyes and stared at him, warning the other party not to be lazy, the man immediately raised his hand, squatted down and began to spread the ears of wheat.

When the sun rose to the very center, most of the ears of wheat turned into plump grains. In the middle, Su Dezhi also came to replace Su Yongyue a few times, asking him to spread the wheat to rest.

There was still work to be done in the afternoon, so they asked Liu Hefang to go back to prepare lunch, and the three of them could do as much as they could while staying here. There were still a lot of wheat ears left, and it was best to thresh them all before dark.

The weight of wheat is so large that it cannot be dried in one day, and it takes a lot of time to transport it back and forth, so someone will be left here at night to watch over it.

Su Dezhi usually stays here in their family. After all, he is the only man in the family, and it is inconvenient for the other two, especially Su Yongyue, an unmarried twin. It is not good to sleep outside at night, and there are still many men. wheat field.

Liu Hefang can occasionally stay with him, but Su Yongyue absolutely can't, even if he doesn't like it, he can't argue with it, the issue of innocence and reputation is the most important thing at any time.

I had a simple meal in the wheat field at noon, and several people stepped up to work without taking a break. The weather is always a bit muggy recently, which is a sign of rain, and the wheat must be dried before then.

Apart from helping to straighten the ears of wheat, Yu Feng also sifted the wheat and flattened the grains with a rake. He couldn't get a hand in the most difficult threshing. He sighed and vowed in his heart not to say that he would recover in a short time. At the same level, at least within a month to train the physical fitness to a normal state, now it is simply too embarrassing.
