Chapter 3318 Homecoming Three

It was the autumn harvest time, and everyone was busy. The Zhou family was tired from the journey, so they slept a little longer. When they woke up, the sun had already come out.

They got up in a hurry, and the Qian family assigned them work, those who should go to the kitchen to cook, and those who should go to each family to invite people, and the rest were all brought to the field by Lao Zhoutou.

Lang said on Tuesday: "We hired long-term workers and part-time workers on the land at home. The part-time workers didn't join forces for a while, and the long-term workers lived in the huts at the end of the village."

The rice in the field is growing well, many of which are yellow and orange can be harvested.

Lao Zhoutou looked around and said, "It has to be harvested, otherwise the sun will be shining, and it will be too ripe to fall."

On Tuesday, Lang responded, and the Zhou brothers took their nephews and went down to the fields to harvest their trousers.

When Zhou Man found the Zhou family and wanted to learn about the situation on the mountain with Zhou Zhoulang, he knew that they had all gone to the ground to harvest rice, so he ran back home, "My second brother, they have gone down to the ground, Bai Shan, should we go and have a look? ?"

Bai Shan thought for a while, then nodded and said, "Alright."

So after breakfast, they also went to the fields with their sickles, and Yin or followed along to join in the fun. He picked up rice ears in the field with a basket and two children.

Their working time was not long. When the sun was up, the sun was already very bright, so Lao Zhou Tou put away the sickle and greeted his sons and grandchildren to go home.

All the way home from the fields, some people hold Wu Wulang, some hold Lao Zhoutou, and Zhou Lizhong's former friends. We haven't seen him for many years, and everyone is a little rusty, but he talked about the current situation. In the harvest, they quickly found the acquaintance.

No one was looking for the remaining Zhou Mans. They went home silently and washed their faces and hands, and then they looked for Zhou Zhou, "Second brother, we want to go up the mountain for a walk, are there many people who grow medicinal herbs in the village now? "

Zhou Lang said: "Every household has some, and now they are busy harvesting rice. There is no one on the mountain. If you want to go up, go up. By the way, many people have planted fruit trees. Pick some, write them down, and I'll just talk to their family later."

It is common for neighbors in the village to pick fruit. There are two types of fruit picking: those who say hello to them openly and those who pick them secretly.

Most of the latter will be scolded, although the person who is scolding does not know who they are scolding, but as long as they are scolded by pinching the waist at the entrance of the village, it is enough for the real thief to hear.

Zhou Man naturally wouldn't let himself be scolded, so he responded, "Second brother, you have to say hello to me in advance."

"Don't worry, I'm going to call the villagers to eat in a while, and I'll talk to them when I go."

Bai Shan asked, "Have lunch or dinner?"

"Dinner, it's too late for lunch."

Bai Shan said, "I'll ask the servants at home to help me in a while. If you're short of ingredients, you can get them from home."

Zhou Zhou Lang waved his hand and said, "I have everything at home, even if I don't have it, there are also in the village."

The Zhou family does not raise pigs, but they do raise chickens, kill a few chickens, and buy some from their small village if they are in short supply. They also have enough eggs and ducks.

There are also pigs in the village, and on Tuesday Lang said: "Your third brother has already gone to someone to buy pigs, and they will be killed in a while. It is estimated that they will be handled at noon, and you will all come to eat pig-killing vegetables in a while."

"It's just that no one raises sheep, but the fourth went to his uncle's house. When his mother asked him to come back, he would turn to Dali Village and ask for two sheep from his Yue family. It would be convenient to kill them and bring them back."

This is meat, not to mention vegetables, Zhou's family is not enough, just ask anyone in the village to ask for some.

Or just pick some vegetables from each family.

So there is no need to worry about the ingredients, nor the manpower. There are not many other things in the Zhou family, that is, there are many people, and the children can use them.

The little Qian family followed behind the Qian family to manage, the entire Zhou family was in good order, and there was absolutely no use for the place where Zhou was full.

So Zhou Man and Bai Shan took Yin or and the children up the mountain happily.

Because the path between the ridges was not easy to walk, they drove ox carts.

Mingda sat on the ox cart and looked at the ears of rice hanging down on both sides, her feet dropped little by little by the side of the cart, letting the grass brush over her shoes, she couldn't help laughing, "The ox cart is really unique. Wild fun."

Zhou Man sat beside her, and behind him was the child surrounded by five adults. He smiled and said, "If you like it, let's drive the ox cart when we go to Dali Village."

Their small village is a little far from the village. After ten years of development, the houses here have been renovated and expanded a lot, making it look like a small village.

A lot has been planted on the mountain, not only the fruit trees are planted halfway up the mountain, they have also planted several plots of medicinal herbs such as privet seed.

Because there is not enough manpower, they will buy medicine seeds and scatter them directly in the mountains and forests. They simply hoe the ground and apply fertilizer once, and then let them grow. The time is much longer, but the price is also slightly higher, which is suitable for the small Zhuangzi with insufficient manpower.

The road in front of Xiaozhuangzi was tidy up. As soon as the ox cart stopped, the three children enthusiastically reached out to get off the cart. As soon as they stepped on the ground, they rushed towards the ducks on the edge of the field excitedly - catching the ducks!

The long-term workers in Zhuangzi were harvesting rice in the fields, and when they saw the masters coming, they immediately ran with their scythes, "Master, Master Tang, Miss Man, are you all back?"

The servant who followed said: "What do you call it, now it's time to call the master and the lady."

Zhou Man waved back most of the people, leaving only two articulate people and asked, "What kind of fruit are there growing on the mountain?"

"It was planted by the lady and the master in the past, and the fruit is sweeter than before. Now there are pears, winter jujubes, and persimmons..."

They went up the mountain to see, and lifted the child to the tree to pick the fruit, and they had an addiction to wild travel.

A group of people picked half a cart of fruits, and as soon as they entered the village, they began to distribute them to the children who were surrounding them.

Ming Da and Yin Or, who had never experienced it, were amazed.

It’s not that they have never swam in the wild, let’s not talk about it, they have fruit trees in Zhuangzi on the outskirts of Beijing, and occasionally take their children to pick fruit and play, but the people they meet along the way are very respectful, no one dares to Wagon around.

Like Qili Village, it was the first time I saw a group of teenagers running around the car with a bunch of children screaming, but not disturbing the cattle.

Following Mingda's palace and Yin or's guards, seeing that the servants of the Bai family did not stop him, but stepped aside, they also silently fell behind two steps, and then were pushed aside by the children.

Zhou Man grabbed a handful of winter jujube and stuffed it into a child's hand, and he reached out to them even more. Bai Shansheng was afraid that they would fall under the wheel, so he had the ox cart parked and took shelter under a tree by the roadside. He simply divided the fruit on the spot, "Don't you have any at home?"

"My family grows jujubes, but my mother doesn't let us eat them, so I have to take them to the county seat to sell them."

"I don't have dates, only persimmons, which are not delicious."

"I like pears the most."

Mingda gave the talking child a pear, and when the others saw it, they immediately reached out to Mingda, "I want it too, I want it too..."

Zhou got a lot of fruit and went out, but he didn't leave in a hurry at all, and asked, "You don't have any work at home?"
