Princess of Han

Chapter 11.drought

Xu Peiyao was standing inside the door, and when she heard another fight outside, she rubbed her forehead, turned and went back.

For children in every family, maybe the relationship will be better if they beat each other?

can you?

Other people at this age might be like this, fight the first day, and get better in a few days, but it is absolutely impossible for Chen Youliang and Zhu Chongba to spread it.

The two of them are like enemies from previous lives, born at odds.Sometimes even Xu Peiyao couldn't help being astonished, but children who are less than ten years old, why do they seem to have a sworn feud, as for it?

"Pei Yao, come in quickly, why are you standing at the door?"

"Mom, I'll be right there!" Forget it, don't care about those two guys.The little girl responded to the inner courtyard, and then walked back.

Opening the curtain and entering the back room, she saw her mother changing her younger brother's diaper.

"Mother, what about father?"

"Your father, I have been busy with the crops in the field during this time. This year is relatively dry. This month, there is not a drop of water, and the seedlings in the field are almost dry. At this time in previous years, the accumulated crops in the field The water is so deep. Alas!"

Maybe it was because of the worry, Xu's mother frowned, and her face couldn't help showing deep worry.

"Mom, what should we do? It's not an option for father and elder brother to carry water from the pond all the time. After all, manpower is limited, and our family only has two laborers, father and elder brother. Before we can pick up enough water, it will evaporate again." .”

"Drought, God doesn't let us live, what can we little people do? It's not bad now, but it will be even hotter in a few months. If it doesn't rain at that time, our harvest this year will be completely over." There are so many people going to Huangjue Temple to offer incense today, and this is also the reason.

How many families are starting to panic.

Xu Peiyao bit her lip when she saw her mother's worry.

Whether it was her previous life or her first life, she was well-fed, especially in her last life, she never worried about such things.She doesn't know anything about farming, even if it is the rich collection of books of the Xiaoyao School, the entry requires medical divination, astrology, piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, mechanical handyman, trade and planting, wine fighting and singing, and guessing riddles. , she also chooses what she likes.

The Xiaoyao School has too much to learn, and in a short life, being able to master one of them is already considered a genius.In addition to piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, she chose to devote herself to the study of medical and poisonous scriptures. She never thought she would use it for farming and planting, so she kept ignoring it.But I don't want to, I use it now.

"Mother, why don't we hire someone to build a water wheel, so that dad and elder brother don't have to carry water for irrigation?"

Now it is the end of the Yuan Dynasty, waterwheels have already existed, but there are only three at most in their village, not everyone can build waterwheels.

Mother Xu shook her head.

"Silly boy, it's not the problem of the waterwheel. The most fundamental thing is the water! If we wait a few more months, at the hottest time, the water in the pond will gradually disappear. At that time, even if there is a waterwheel, It doesn't help either!"

"mother!"

"Okay, Peiyao, don't worry about this, you are still young, you just need to grow up well now. When our little Peiyao grows up, she will definitely be the most beautiful girl in Haozhou City. At that time, the matchmaker will definitely They're going to knock down the door of our house."

"Mom, I'm talking about business, so I don't care about you."

"Okay, my little Peiyao is getting shy, mom won't talk, mom won't talk anymore." Hugging the little daughter's body, Xu's mother concealed a smile with a dignified expression.

God, I hope you can give us a way out.I don't ask for anything else, and I don't expect any glory and wealth. As long as our Xu family lives well, lives together, lives to watch my son marry a wife and have children, and watch my daughter get married in the future, I will be satisfied. carry on.

This world is messed up enough.Yuan soldiers are cruel, and taxes are exorbitant. We ordinary people are already living a difficult life. If you don't show mercy, how can we survive?

It's a pity that even though Xu's mother was mentally prepared, she still didn't expect how serious the situation would be in the future.In this era of relying on the sky for food, manpower is so small in front of nature.

In 1343 A.D., that is, the third year from Yuan Dynasty to Zhengzheng, a drought occurred in Haozhou.In the spring of the following year, another serious locust plague occurred, and the crops were eaten up by locusts.Misfortunes never come singly, and then came the plague.All of a sudden, people died in every household. In one village, a dozen or even dozens of people died in one day.
