Little wealth

It was no surprise that Josh was the last one in the family to get up the next morning. When he got out of bed, he still supported his waist, especially when he bent over to put on his shoes, he couldn't help cursing something in his heart. man.Didn't he just tell the facts he knew, as for being retaliated like this!

... Well, he shouldn't have made fun of a self-respecting and sullen man, he was wrong!

When he got up late and left the house, the whole family was already preparing breakfast outside the yard.

"Get up, let's eat. Boss said you are not feeling well, are you quicker?" Zhao Amu brought breakfast to the table, but she didn't say anything about her daughter-in-law sleeping so late.

"Cough, it's okay." Looking at everyone's slightly concerned eyes, Josh was so embarrassed that he finally understood a certain man's inner journey.

Zhao Amu himself is someone who has been there, so he naturally knows why his daughter-in-law wakes up so late, but he also knows that her daughter-in-law is thin-skinned. When the things come out, I wish that my son and daughter-in-law can work harder and strive to give him two more grandchildren as soon as possible.

Only Zhao Hu didn't understand, so he really thought that his brother was not feeling well, and when he saw his brother coming out, he moved a stool for his brother to sit on, "Brother, sit down."

"Hey, good." Josh caught his son who was rushing towards him, took his son and sat down on the table next to the dining table, looked at the simple porridge and steamed buns on the table, and saw that it was made by a certain man breakfast.Seeing that Eun Mu brought out the breakfast, he said, "Everyone sit down and have breakfast."

Zhao He came out from the kitchen with a bowl of steamed eggs, and saw that Fu Lang had already got up and was sitting at the table with the child.The two looked at each other, and Josh forced a smile on his face, turned away as if nothing had happened, bowed his head and called his son in response, talking to the child.

"Boss come to eat too." Zhao Amu distributed the chopsticks to everyone's bowls and called the eldest son to eat.

Zhao Hu glanced back and shouted, "Brother is here for dinner."

After everyone had breakfast, they went to work next door.

Butcher Chen and his brother fed the pigs at home every day, and went to Zhao’s house to help with work after having breakfast. In the evening, the father and son returned to their own home after having dinner at Zhao’s house. in this way.

The bamboo wall outside the courtyard was erected little by little, increasing continuously, from one point to half, from half to more than half, and finally the entire outer wall was surrounded by bamboo, including their original old house.

All the doors and windows in the house are also installed. There are rows of large windows. Once the windows are opened, the whole house is bright.

When the doors, windows and exterior walls of their house are finished, it will be time for the annual grain harvest.

Everyone in their family got up early that day. Josh got up early to prepare breakfast for the family. Knowing that he would get hungry easily after work, he baked a stack of thick meatloaf, each with The size of a palm, knowing the food intake of this family, he deliberately baked a few more.

In addition to the baked pancakes, he also cooked a large pot of noodles. The stewed pork was cooked in advance, simmered in the pot overnight, and then eaten next day.

The next morning, a handful of firewood was added to the stove to heat up the stewed meat.

When it's time to eat breakfast, each person has a large bowl of noodles, and a large spoonful of stewed pork is placed on top, and a spoonful of chopped green onions is put on it, and there are various pickles on the side. If you like it, you can add two spoonfuls.

"Well, it's delicious!" Zhao Hu was picking ramen with chopsticks in one hand, wiped his mouth with his hand, and was eating with a piece of meat pie in his hand.He thinks that his brother's cooking skills must be the best in the world. The pancakes made here are really delicious. The outer skin is a bit burnt and crispy, and the meat filling can be seen when you bite into it. The meat stuffing inside has a salty aroma and a little scallion aroma.

"Eat more, you can go to work when you are full." Zhao Amu asked her two sons to eat more. At this time of the year, the two sons in the family are the main force of the work, and they can go to work when they are full. .

Seeing that there was no more meat in everyone's bowls, Josh picked up a spoon and added another spoonful of meat to everyone's bowls, and said, "Eat more, there is still in the pot, don't save it."

"Hey~ brother, you are the best!" Zhao Hu took a piece of stewed meat and ate it. The meat was so delicious. I don't know how his brother cooked the meat. It was so fragrant, not only because of the smell , It tastes even more delicious.

Zhao He looked up at Fu Lang, who was also eating noodles with chopsticks in one hand and pancakes in the other, and said nothing.

The two brothers ate without ambiguity at all. They ate two large bowls of noodles, and each ate three or four pancakes.

Josh's appetite was not as large as that of these two people, but he also felt full after eating a small bowl of noodles and a pancake.

"Don't you eat?" Zhao Amu asked.

"Don't eat, I'm full, you guys eat." Josh straightened his back, feeling that he had eaten too much early in the morning, so he couldn't help standing up to loosen his stomach.

Of course, their son is the one with the worst appetite in the family every day, and eats even less than him.After everyone finished eating, the little brat was still holding a piece of pancake in his hand and was gnawing on it, his belly was obviously curved.

Josh knew at a glance that his son was full and was reluctant to part with the half pancake, but he didn't care about the child, just let the child eat slowly.Putting the dishes and chopsticks into the kitchen to wash, he looked at the people who were packing up outside, and asked, "Are we going to take anything with us later?"

"The boss will clean up the things. You can bring some water for everyone. You can drink when you are thirsty." Zhao Amu shouted.

"Oh, ok, I'll put it on right now." Josh washed the bowls and chopsticks in the sink, and went to bring two large bamboo tubes to fill the water. The water in the pot was boiled together with the rice in the morning. Yes, just enough for the whole family to drink for a day.He used two big bamboo tubes to fill in the boiled water of two large bamboo tubes, covered the top lids, and did not forget to bring two bowls for everyone to drink.

There were still some pancakes baked in the morning, so he picked them up in a basket, covered them, and prepared to take them to the field, where they could eat them anytime anyone was hungry.

After packing up their things, the family closed the door of the yard and went out with the family dog.Zhao He, who was walking in front, led the donkey. On the donkey cart were sickles and bamboo baskets. The bamboo baskets contained the things they needed, and the family went to the field.

***

It was just dawn at this moment, and when their family arrived in the field, they could see people bending over to work in the field at a glance, and there were children running along the side, laughing playfully.

Harvesting grain is the most important thing for everyone in their village. At this time of year, adults and children in almost every household will go to the fields to collect grain. The adults harvest crops in the field, and the older children who can help with work They will also go to work in the fields, and only the younger children who can't do anything are playing on the sidelines.

Their family is going to harvest the best wheat in this area first. In the nearby fields, no one’s crops grow as well as the wheat in their area. The thick poles are bent by the wheat on top. Waist, this handful of wheat seems to be more than the other three handfuls.

"Let's just put the things here." Josh also brought his son over, and their son was a child who couldn't do anything at a young age and needed someone to watch from the sidelines.But today he is going to go to the field to experience the joy of harvesting grain, and he is not going to stay alone to see his son.

Zhao Amu said a little worriedly: "Why don't you go down to the ground and watch Niannian here."

"It's okay, Ah Huang is here to watch him, let's let him play by the side, and it's not too far away, he will call us if something happens." Harvesting grain is different from spring plowing. During spring plowing, there is water in the field. They worry that the children will run into the fields to play in the water.At this time, the ground is dry, there is no water at all, even if it falls, it will hit the wheat, and there is nothing wrong with it, so Josh has nothing to worry about, thinking that there is no need for someone to stay by the side to watch looking at the child.

Zhao Amu glanced at the little grandson and the dog, feeling very suspicious in his heart, can this dog really take good care of his little grandson?

Seeing the distrustful expression on his mother's face, Josh couldn't help but say: "Yes, mother, he has grown up a bit, so he will call us if there is anything, Ah Huang is here, what's the matter?" Huang can also bark, just pay attention to this side when we are working."

He wasn't worried that the child would run into the field, but he was worried that some snakes and insects would bite the child nearby, but there were snakes crawling out, and Ah Huang would definitely call them here.

"Niannian, just sit here with Ah Huang and help us look at things, don't go to other places, you know?" Although he said that there is no need to worry, but when he was going to work in the field, Josh still reminded him The child should stay here obediently and not go away.

"Look." Xiao Wa'er also knew that these belonged to their family, and she was responsible for looking after them.

"Yes, I'm just looking forward to it, don't go away." Josh told the child not to leave here, looked at everyone and said, "Let's go to work too, while it's still early, we won't be able to work for long when the sun comes out." If you live, let’s try to collect it sooner.”

Zhao He reached out and touched the child's head, then glanced at Ah Huang.

Ah Huang raised his head and wagged his tail at his master, and followed the young master without walking away.

"Okay, let's hurry up." Zhao Amu also knew that the grain harvest could not be delayed, and he had to harvest the grain as soon as the weather was good, otherwise the crops in the field would suffer when a heavy rain came.

The weather at this time is good and bad, and not every day has such good weather. One year, they encountered a situation where it started to rain as soon as they harvested the grain. It rained for seven or eight days in a row. That year, many people The grain that was taken back was put into mold, and many people were crying after collecting the grain.

But he thinks that the weather this year has been good, so it should be that this kind of thing will not happen to him.

Before the sun rose, several members of their family also went down to the fields with sickles to collect grain. They started harvesting from one side and piled the harvested wheat to one side.

When they were working, Josh would look back at the child behind him from time to time, and when he saw the child obediently sitting on the small stool without walking away, he continued to turn his head to do his work.

At the beginning, he was not very proficient in using a sickle, but after learning slowly, he also found a little feeling, harvesting together, others have already harvested a big hole, but here is still a small hole, it seems that he You have to work hard too.
