Wear to the 90s to farm and fall in love

Farmers always have endless farm work. After the autumn harvest, although most of the crops in the field have been harvested, there is still one last crop that has not been harvested, which is sugar cane.

At that time, it had entered mid-December, and it was also the season of harvesting sugar cane. The villagers began to get busy again, busy cutting and harvesting sugar cane.

Cutting and harvesting sugarcane is also a very hard job, because there is no special machine for harvesting sugarcane, so it can only be cut and harvested one by one by hand. Although there are not many sugarcanes in their village, every household at least grows some Three or four acres of land.It would take several days to finish the harvest if only the family members cut the harvest, which is too time-consuming, so the villagers spontaneously thought of a way: to help each other.

That is, today it is my turn to cut sugar cane and you help out. I owe you a job, and I will pay back when your family cuts sugar cane.This method of helping each other is very good. The more workers help each other, when it is their turn to cut sugar cane, many people will come to return the work. It only takes a day or two to cut and harvest a few acres of sugar cane.

Therefore, as soon as the season of cutting sugarcane comes, the villagers are very busy, and all those who can go to work go to work.

Ding Yunfei also went out to work, and went to help cut sugar cane every day. Although he had never cut sugar cane before, he would be able to do everything after a day or two. I have to say that this work is more difficult than harvesting corn and pulling peanuts. Too much.

They first cut down the sugarcane, then cleaned the leaves and roots of the sugarcane with a sickle, tied the sugarcane in bundles, and then carried the bundled sugarcane to the ox cart for loading. Okay, then drive the ox cart to pull the sugar cane to the side of the road and pile it up.After the sugar cane is cut, a large truck will come to take the sugar cane to the sugar factory in a few days. When the big truck comes to pull the sugar cane, it is also necessary to manually load the sugar cane on the truck in bundles.All in all, very hard work.

However, no matter how hard it is, Ding Yunfei still insists on working every day.

On this day, it happened to be the turn of Zhao Xiaolin's family to cut sugar cane, and Ding Yunfei also went to help.

When he got to the field, Ding Yunfei realized that He Wu had also come, and was standing in the sugarcane field wielding a hoe to cut sugarcane with Zhao Xiaolin.

Seeing him coming, He Wu put down his hoe, glanced at him, and said, "Yo? Ding Yunfei is here too, he's become very diligent recently, we almost don't know you anymore."

Zhao Xiaolin took a look and quickly explained: "I asked Yunfei to come over to help," he said, beckoning to Ding Yunfei, "Yunfei, come here."

"En." Ding Yunfei responded, put on his gloves, and walked towards them with a hoe.

He Wu and Zhao Xiaolin came earlier, and had already cut down several stacks of sugar cane. Several helpers from the villagers had also arrived, standing in front of the stacks of sugar cane, bending over with a sickle to clean the leaves on the sugar cane.

Ding Yunfei walked to Zhao Xiaolin's side in a few steps, Zhao Xiaolin pointed to the rows of sugar cane on his right, and said to Ding Yunfei: "Cut this side, this is the land boundary, and all the people here are my home." The sugar cane that is there is someone else’s over there, so don’t cut it over there.”

"Okay." Ding Yunfei nodded, grabbed a sugarcane and started chopping it with a hoe.

Standing between Ding Yunfei and He Wu, Zhao Xiaolin pointed to the rows of sugar cane on his left and said to He Wu: "He Wu, cut down those rows, and I will cut down the middle rows."

He Wu didn't say anything, he moved a few steps to the side with the hoe, grabbed the sugarcane and started chopping.

Zhao Xiaolin breathed a sigh of relief quietly, and picked up the hoe to chop sugar cane.

It was only when he came to the field in the morning that he knew that He Wu had also come to help. It should be his parents who called the help. Except for Ding Yunfei, the villagers who came to help this time were called by him, and the rest were his parents. He didn't know who invited them here. If he had known in advance that his parents had also invited He Wu, he wouldn't have asked him to come over to help. Will they fight when they meet?

Fortunately, he looked calmer when he was young, so he probably wouldn't fight He Wu.

Zhao Xiaolin relaxed a little bit. While cutting sugar cane, he chatted with Ding Yunfei: "What's your team's turn now? Are you planning to cut sugar cane for your family?"

In their village, sugarcane is cut according to the number. Before harvesting sugarcane, each household will draw a number in advance. When the sugarcane harvesting starts in the village, each team will issue one or two numbers every day. .

"It's coming soon, it's probably our turn in a dozen numbers or so." Ding Yunfei replied, holding the sugar cane in one hand, and hoeing the root of the sugar cane with the other hand, a sugar cane was broken in an instant , and then he threw it lightly again, throwing the hoeed sugar cane to the field behind him to pile them up, and the whole movement was done in one go.

"It's your family's turn to cut sugar cane, don't forget to call me, I'll go back to work." Zhao Xiaolin laughed.

Ding Yunfei "cut" and said, "No need to pay it back."

Zhao Xiaolin smiled, turned his head and said to He Wu: "He Wu, it's your family's turn to cut it down, don't forget to call me, I will pay back the work."

"No need," He Wu said blankly, "I'm here today to pay back your domestic workers."

Only then did Zhao Xiaolin know that He Wu came to pay back work today, that is to say, He Wu's family had already harvested a cart of sugarcane. It is estimated that his parents had helped with the work before, so He Wu came back to work today.

Zhao Xiaolin was quite embarrassed, and smiled embarrassingly. It could be seen that He Wu was not in a good mood, so Zhao Xiaolin stopped talking and bent down to chop sugar cane.

The three of them were chopping the sugarcane quietly, only the sound of the hoes being swung and the rattling sound of the leaves on the sugarcane being shaken when it was felled.

The leaves of sugarcane have toothed edges, and the skin can be scratched and bleed if you accidentally scratch the skin. Therefore, when cutting sugarcane, you usually wear gloves and wrap a headscarf to prevent being scratched by the cane leaves.

But Ding Yunfei felt that wearing a turban was uncomfortable, so he didn't wear a turban, and only wore gloves. As long as he paid attention to it, his face would not be easily scratched.

The three of them were cutting sugar cane in front, and the young men were more powerful, and the sugar cane trees fell under their sharp hoes. After a while, the three of them chopped down a large piece of sugar cane.

Behind them, a lot of helper villagers came, at least [-] or [-] people, men and women. The women were responsible for cleaning the sugarcane leaves with a sickle, and the men were responsible for binding the cleaned sugarcane into bundles with a rope. The division of labor and cooperation, they chatted while working, it was very lively.

In contrast, the three young men who were in charge of cutting sugarcane in front seemed much quieter, but it was good to be quiet, at least they would not be distracted from their work, and they would work faster.The villagers working behind were unable to keep up with their speed and were left far behind by them.

The three of them were chopping sugar cane when they suddenly heard someone shouting from behind: "Xiao Lin, come here."

It was Zhao Xiaolin's mother who was calling Zhao Xiaolin.

Zhao Xiaolin looked back at his mother and asked loudly, "What's the matter?"

"You don't have enough rope, you ride home and get two more bundles of rope." Zhao Xiaolin's mother shouted from a distance.

"Oh, good." Zhao Xiaolin replied, and after the answer, he said to Ding Yunfei and He Wu embarrassedly, "I'll go home, you two chop slowly, don't worry."

"It's okay, you can go." Ding Yunfei said.

Zhao Xiaolin nodded his head, looked at Ding Yunfei with some anxiety, then at He Wu, He Wu gave him a sideways glance and said: "See what I am doing, just go, you are afraid that I will eat him No."

Zhao Xiaolin smiled awkwardly: "Okay, then I'm leaving, and I'll be back soon." He said, carrying a hoe and stepping on a field of sugarcane leaves, and ran to the rear.

Ding Yunfei lowered his head and held the hoe and continued to chop the sugar cane. He and Wu were the only two people. They had to hurry up and chop, otherwise the people cleaning up the sugar cane would catch up. They had to chop faster than they harvested. just work.

He was concentrating on chopping sugar cane, when suddenly there was a crisp sound, a bunch of sugar cane leaves swept across and hit him hard in the face.

"Hiss." Ding Yunfei let out a low cry of pain, raised his head and glared at He Wu who was standing not far from him, and said angrily, "What are you doing?!"

Holding a sugar cane with leaves in his hand, He Wu looked at Ding Yunfei: "Ah, I'm sorry, I accidentally caught you."

He said he was embarrassed, but there was a gloating expression on his face, which was clearly intentional.

Ding Yunfei didn't say anything, but suppressed the anger in his heart, took off his gloves, raised his hand to touch his cheek, spread his fingers and saw that his hand was stained with red blood, probably his cheek was bleeding from a cane leaf.

Ding Yunfei stared at the blood on his hand, frowned, raised his head and stared at He Wu again, He Wu dropped the sugar cane, and walked towards him: "Yo, is it bleeding? Let me see."

As he said that, he stretched out his hand, and when his hand was about to touch Ding Yunfei's cheek, Ding Yunfei slapped it out: "What are you doing!"

He Wu withdrew the beaten hand and shouted: "Ding Yunfei, do you want to fight?!"

Ding Yunfei glared at him, did not speak, his face felt stabbing pain, he raised his hand and wiped it again, and wiped the blood from his finger again.

"Fuck." Ding Yunfei cursed in his heart.

He Wu looked at his cheeks, there were two scratches on Ding Yunfei's cheeks, blood was oozing out, because the skin was fairer, the wounds looked obvious.

He Wu also regretted a little, and said angrily: "Who told you to always be against me recently, and you still help that kid Wei Yu, you clearly know that our family has conflicts with theirs, and you are still on his side, you Tell me, have you changed, we used to have such a good relationship, why has it become like this now?!"

Ding Yunfei was silent for a moment, and he persuaded: "He Wu, people can't always be entangled in the past, you have to learn to let go of the past, or it will be time to repay the wrong."

"Don't tell me the big truth, I don't understand!" He Wu roared, and after the roar, he turned around and picked up the hoe angrily, and chopped the sugar cane vigorously, as if he wanted to scatter all his anger on the sugar cane.

Ding Yunfei looked at him, frowned, did not speak, picked up the hoe on the ground and continued to work.

In the evening, after a day's work was over, Ding Yunfei dragged his exhausted body back home.

After eating with his family, he boiled a pot of hot water and took a comfortable bath with hot water. After taking a bath and washing his clothes, he returned to the living room, just in time to hear the landline phone in the living room rang, and he picked it up Phone: "Hi, hello."

"Ah Fei." A familiar voice came from the other end of the phone.

The author has something to say:

There may be little cuties who are confused about some of the prices in the article, here I will give a brief explanation *^_^*

In the 500s, the tuition fees for junior and senior high schools were about 2000 yuan. Of course, the charging standards were different in each region. At that time, many children in poor areas dropped out of school because they could not afford the tuition fees. I understand that I wrote it like this.As for the monthly salary of the village head, which is only a few tens of dollars, the author has a friend whose family has been the village head for decades, so I know something about it.What is more controversial is the price of sesame. I am not sure about it myself. I checked some information and took a relatively average price. There may be deviations, but it should not be too bad.Although it seems that some things can be sold for hundreds of dollars, it seems that there is a lot of money, but the harvest is only a few months, and some crops even take a year to get a harvest, although it can be sold for [-] yuan at a time , but that is only one year's income, and after excluding the cost of labor, the money earned is not enough for the villagers' living expenses for the next year, such as buying rice and meat, paying tuition and living expenses for children, buying fertilizers, seeds, Pesticides, etc.Villagers also have a lot of living expenses, and they don’t receive wages every month. They can only earn income by planting a few crops for a few months or even a year.

If you have any questions, you can raise them, and thank you very much for your valuable suggestions. I will pay more attention to the price in the future. Thank you, but I still suggest that you try to read this article as a fiction and don’t worry about it. Those minutiae, if you don’t read the article, you will be very tired, and I write it with trepidation.
