Chapter six hundred and thirty sixth harvest rice
Aunt Lin knew that these were all the credits of Bai Lingxi. The previous confrontation between this child and the villagers in the country made these people temporarily restrain themselves.
Well, you can’t frame Aunt Lin for no reason and no basis, but you can also gossip!
"Look at that widow, she really thought she was a rich man and took in those outsiders."
"Seeing that she looks like she must have wanted to please these outsiders and think they have money. When these people came to knock on us, I asked about it. They wanted to eat and live here for a month without any money."
"Yes, I know, is this widow stupid?"
"I'm really crazy about money. I'll lose all my money by then, but it's going to be miserable!"
Aunt Lin could have thought that she hadn't heard these unpainful gossips. She didn't plan to ask Bai Lingxi and the others for money, so it doesn't matter whether she has money or not.
Aunt Lin didn't care, and Bai Lingxi and the others naturally didn't care about this either.
Late rice is coming soon. Aunt Lin and Meiyun's families have so many laborers and are in a good mood.
Aunt Lin taught them how to operate early so that they would not be in chaos again.
Everyone listened honestly.
They are all a group of people who have eaten rice but have never seen rice. Meng Lianghe and others are quite serious about doing farm work.
Several people were wearing waterproof boots and stepping on the rice fields. Looking at the golden rice, thinking that the harvest was so good, and thinking that so much time would it take to cut so much rice with manpower!
It’s okay with them now helping me. How did Aunt Lin and Meiyun grandson do it? It was really not easy.
The waterproof boots were not easy to walk in the rice field. Each of them took a sickle and started cutting the rice.
Grandpa Meiyun cleaned up at the back and transferred the rice they cut to another place.
The leaves in the rice fields were a little bit shaking, and they could cut them out by accident. Wu Zhengyi felt a little tired and didn't understand why they came to farm like farmers.
Seeing Grandpa Meiyun walking away with rice in her arms, Wu Zhengyi suddenly said, "Hey, we really have to do farm work like this for a month! What's the point of doing these? We are in the Third Army. We shouldn't spend it here!"
"Otherwise? We were originally here to experience life, but wasn't it just to experience these things? Don't just think of everything after two days of work, and then go to steal other people's sweet potatoes, we don't care about you." Meng Lianghe said.
Wu Zhengyi was blushed when he was said, but he didn't dare to quarrel with Meng Lianghe. He could only lower his head to cut rice. In fact, he was unwilling to do this.
He really couldn't find the meaning. The Third Army was originally a passionate place. They were soldiers of the Third Army. No matter how they did these things, they were unreliable and useless.
Seeing that Wu Zhengyi stopped talking, Meng Lianghe was too lazy to pay attention to him. There were so many rice, but he didn’t move faster. I don’t know how many days it would take to be harvested!
Grandpa Meiyun seemed very happy. This year was the easiest year for him to harvest rice.
The people around me also saw the situation here and were a little envious. If you don’t have to work, just eat a meal and help you with these hard and tiring work, you will naturally be willing to do it.
But they didn't expect that these outsiders were really willing to do it! Seeing that they were all busy, the widow was free and felt a little jealous.
Bai Lingxi was still cooking, okay, Meiyun was still cooking, Bai Lingxi was just doing some small things, and she felt a little disgusted, but Aunt Lin said that their labor force was good and enough, so it didn't matter if Bai Lingxi couldn't do it less.
Bai Lingxi then cooked with Meiyun with peace of mind.
When lunch time comes, in order to save time, they are delivered directly to the fields to eat on the spot.
Meng Lianghe and the others didn't dislike it and sat down with a wash.
Bai Lingxi took out a piece of washing and quickly woven a bag and put it on the ground, and brought it out for lunch.
Meiyun was steamed all over her head, a pot of vegetable soup, a large bowl of pickles, and a rare person cooked two boiled eggs. Perhaps Aunt Lin thought that harvesting rice was more difficult, so she could give them some nutrition, otherwise she would be hungry after eating the big white steamed bun!
The few people ate very delicious. Meiyun didn't eat boiled eggs, but just took a head full of pickles and ate them. When she was thirsty, she drank some vegetable soup and looked at everyone with a smile.
Meiyun thought greedily, it would be great if these brothers and sisters were her family.
Bai Lingxi peeled a boiled egg and put it in Meiyun's bowl. Meiyun was stunned.
"I'm allergic to eggs!" Bai Lingxi said softly.
Originally, Meiyun could not be called for anything, but after listening to Bai Lingxi's words, she ate it obediently, and was extremely well-behaved.
After everyone finished eating, Bai Lingxi and Meiyun packed up their things and took them back. Aunt Lin recently went to the tailor to make new bed sheets and quilt covers for them to make them feel more comfortable to live in, and it really seemed like they were going to settle down.
Several older men seemed very happy. They had never slept in a luxurious bed, but they were really happy because of this cotton sheet.
Because of the sufficient labor force, it only took them two days to harvest rice. Then Grandpa Meiyun took out a simple machine, which was said to be a threshing machine. A man kept shaking it around and asked the machine to rotate it. He asked people to take the rice and beat the grains inside and smash the grains.
Anyway, they have never seen such things.
Shaking the threshing machine looks like a simple guy, but over time, your arms will be extremely sore and you can't rest and delay everyone's progress. It is indeed a hard work.
In the past, it was all shook by Grandpa Meiyun. Because of the hard work over the years, my arms often hurt when I get older.
This time, this is not difficult for Meng Lianghe and others to take such a slightly hard work. Although I am a little tired, I am still accepting the scope.
This time, Aunt Lin and Meiyun's family harvested several days faster than others.
This is something to be happy about. It is not just faster than others, but harvesting first. You can choose a stone dam to dry the rice.
After the rice is harvested, it needs to be dried. The late rice every year is harvested for several days this month. Because there is enough sunshine, you dare to harvest the rice. If the sun is not sufficient, the rice will not be dried after it is harvested, and it will become moldy.
Now that the sun is getting better these two days, everyone is busy. Aunt Lin and the others will harvest first, so naturally they can choose a piece of stone dam in a convenient way.
For Aunt Lin and others, it was something they had not given birth to for many years. They waited for the other people's rice to dry before finding those small pieces to dry at the corners, which was both troublesome and hard.
This time, Aunt Lin directly chose the largest stone dam and asked Meng Lianghe and others to dry the freshly picked rice.
