After crossing over, it's hard

Harvesting rice is another heavy job. In this time and space where there is no machinery and only human power is used, harvesting rice is no different from fighting a war.As the saying goes, June Day, a child's face.Change as you say.The villagers have to finish harvesting and drying the rice before it rains, otherwise, if the rice is exposed to the rain, the work of the first half of the year will be in vain.

Li Ran Jinan's family has five acres of paddy fields, which is not too much or too little in Jijia Village.Li Ran and Ji Nan had to work hard for several days to cut five acres of rice, but luckily they had cattle at home.With this cow, at least the heavy work like carrying rice would not be done by Jinan, but could be completely handed over to the cow, which just reduced Jinan's burden a lot.

Besides, Ji Wangcai's family, now that it's the rice harvest season, Zhang Dafeng took a fancy to Li Ran's cattle.Ji’s rice harvesting tools are all ready, ready to start harvesting rice tomorrow, at the dinner table at noon that day, Zhang Dafeng held a coarse porcelain rice bowl, glanced at Ji Wangcai and said: “The head of the family, the rice is about to be harvested. There are three acres of land at home, but it will take several days to be tired. If you have cattle, it will be different, so you don’t have to carry rice, so you won’t be tired.”

Ji Wangcai glanced at Zhang Dafeng, and said in a deep voice, "What do you mean, whoever is not tired of harvesting rice, don't think about what you have and what you don't have, and eat well."

"What do you mean? I'm not doing it for your own good. If you use the cows in Jinan's house, you can save yourself some worries. You can finish harvesting the rice quickly and have more rest." Zhang Dafeng said angrily, how could this old man pretend to be confused even after he had made it so clear.

Ji Wangcai heard Zhang Dafeng's words, glared at him, and said sharply: "What are you talking about again, we have separated from him, why are we still holding cows, besides, there are so many people in our family, three acres of rice, It’s not too soon, I know how to figure it out all day long. In the future, if you have nothing to do, don’t mess with that side.”

Zhang Dafeng quit after hearing what Ji Wangcai said, jumped up and pointed at Ji Wangcai and scolded: "Okay, I know you only think about your son, you don't pay attention to our sister-in-law. Favor that Kem's nemesis. What's wrong with the separation of the family? I don't care about my father and Eminem anymore. I'm not his dear Eminem, but you are always his biological father. He can't just ignore you. Besides, I'm not Ask them to help harvest rice, just borrow their cows for a while, and return them when they are used up. It’s not that you don’t return them. Younger, you still have to work hard to go to the field. Xiaohong is a brother, and she is not engaged yet, so she can't do these heavy and rough jobs. By then, her hands will be thickened, and Xiaohai is still young, so she can't do much work. You said that the family can go to the field , wouldn’t the boss and his husband be born? Could it be that we can borrow his cattle.” At the beginning when the family was separated, most of the good land in the family was divided by Ji Nan, Zhang Dafeng always held a grudge in his heart, and in Zhang Dafeng’s heart Those fields are all his, his son's, and now he is taken away by Ji Nan who he hates, how willing and convinced he is.So whenever there is a chance, Zhang Dafeng will pick on Ji Nan and Li Ran in front of Ji Wangcai.

Hearing Zhang Dafeng's words, Zhu Yinghua felt a little unconvinced. From rural households, no one as old as Ji Hong went to work in the fields, but he was the only one who could not do farm work. Delicate and weak, with the appearance of a young master, who is it for?Hmph, let's see what kind of rich family he can marry in the future, and be a young husband with servants to serve him.But no matter how dissatisfied Zhu Yinghua was with Ji Hong, he could only keep it in his heart and dare not speak out, otherwise Zhang Dafeng would not let him off lightly.

Ji Wangcai was really hurt by Zhang Dafeng's anger. Why is this old lady getting older and more troublesome? How could Li Ran be so easy to mess with? Don't look at Li Dashan's family who was scammed for 40 taels silver?Does he also want to be cheated of 40 taels of silver?Ji Wangcai put his rice bowl heavily on the dining table, glanced at everyone, and said, "What's the matter with our age? In the village, whoever works in the fields like us, you are the only one who is rich and expensive. If you can't work, you have to be an old seal." Jun. Let me say again that we have already separated from that side. Don’t mess with them if you have nothing to do. We want to harvest rice, and others don’t want to cut rice. We know how to calculate blindly all day long, so we can’t live our own lives. !" Although Ji Wangcai didn't like or even hated Ji Nan's son in his heart, since the separation of the family, their reputation in the village was not good. Everyone said that he took his son's property, was partial, and so on.So now Ji Wangcai really doesn't want to have anything to do with Ji Nan.

After Ji Wangcai finished speaking, he gave Zhang Dafeng a hard look, and warned sharply, "Stay at home and wait for the rice harvest tomorrow, and don't go out to make trouble if you have nothing to do, or you can go out and live alone for me. "

Zhang Dafeng was a little scared at this time, going out to live alone, what is the difference between him and divorced him, he is quite old now, if he wants to go out to live alone, he has to laugh at other people's big teeth.And when he insisted on remarrying at the beginning, he almost offended the entire Mu family. If he went out alone, the brothers and younger brothers of the Mu family would definitely not accept him. Those buddies might not know how to run on him.Thinking of this, Zhang Dafeng had to breathe a sigh of relief, but in his heart he put all the blame on Ji Nan and Li Ran. In Zhang Dafeng's mind, without them, Ji Wangcai would definitely not treat him like this .

If Li Ran knew Zhang Dafeng's thoughts, he would just sneer. He has seen shameless people, but he has never seen such shameless ones. Maybe Li Ran would like Zhang Dafeng to come to borrow cattle, so he can take the opportunity to clean up. him.But now Li Ran is busy harvesting rice, as tired as a dog.

In the paddy field, Li Ran was bending over, struggling to cut the rice with a sickle. After cutting for a while, Li Ran stood up with his waist supported. This kind of rice cutting is really not a job for humans. It took only two days to cut it. With two acres of land, his waist was so sore that it didn't look like his own, it was extremely sore.Seeing Li Ran in such pain, Ji Nan felt very heartbroken. He ran over and helped Li Ran to sit on the ridge next to him, rubbed for Li Ran, and said, "Xiao Ran, go back, I'm alone. It will be cut."

Li Ran leaned on Jinan's shoulder and was rubbed very comfortably. He moaned and said, "It's okay, I'll just take a rest. I just cut half of this acre of land, and you can finish it by yourself." In the same way, Ji Nan felt sorry for Li Ran and didn't want him to work, and Li Ran also felt sorry for Ji Nan, and couldn't bear to let this stupid guy work alone in the hot weather.

Grandma Li, who was picking rice ears in the field next to her, looked at Ji Nan and Li Ran who were relying on each other, and smiled kindly. These two children will have better days in the future. That Ji Wangcai was really blind, so good Her two children were willing to be treated so harshly.Glancing at the water in her back basket, Aunt Li looked at Li Ran and said, "Xiao Ran, are you thirsty? I brought water here."

Li Ran got up from Jinan's shoulders, looked at Grandma Li and said, "Thank you Grandma, we brought water, and what else! Grandma, you are picking ears of rice, right? How much did you pick?"

"Not much. This morning, I only picked up half of the basket." Li Ama said and showed Li Ran her own basket.In Jijia Village, after the rice field has been harvested and tidied up, others are allowed to pick the ears of rice.So most people will go through the field again after harvesting the rice to see if there are too many ears of rice lost. Once again, there will be some missing ears of rice. At this time, those who have less land and are diligent will go to the fields to pick up the ears of rice.Grandma Li planted her own seeds for others, so every year when the rice was harvested, she would carry a basket on her back and go to the harvested fields to pick up rice ears.Picking two seasons like this every year, when there is a lot, you can pick up more than a basket of rice, and when there is less, there are more than half of the baskets, which can give some subsidies to the family.In Jijia Village, there are many rice pickers like Grandma Li.

Hurry up, and finally took the rice back home after seven days of busy work. This is because Ji Nan saw Li Ran's back pain, so he slowed down. Of course, they are considered fast, and there are still many people in Jijia Village who have not harvested. Finished.Harvesting the rice is not finished yet. The five-acre paddy field still needs to be plowed to plant late-season rice. The rice needs to be dried in the sun and stored in the warehouse.Of course, there is no need to rush these things.

It is now June 22, and the watermelons in the field have already begun to ripen. The watermelons here ripen relatively late. In the past and modern times, the watermelons would have begun to ripen in early June, and they could be picked and eaten.But in Daqing, they have to wait until late June.

Li Ran went to look at the watermelons in the watermelon field. There are still two people guarding the watermelon field every day, but fortunately, so far, there has been no theft.Li Ran knocked around in the watermelon field, and picked three watermelons with a particularly crisp sound, and three dead watermelons. He was going to go back and try to see if they were ripe.It seems that the watermelon tree is not ripe. Li Ran, who was used to growing vegetables in the previous life, still has a hand. The watermelon that is ripe has a very different sound from the unripe watermelon. It is crisp and crisp, and the unripe ones are tattered. They are not crisp at all. If there is a sound, it may not be accurate. It depends on the roots on the watermelon vine. There are many root systems on the watermelon vine near the watermelon pedicle. If you have three or more, it is definitely cooked.The watermelons in the field are almost dead now, and in about three to five or seven days, they can be picked and returned home.
