Chapter 395

After making sure that the old Zhou family was not doing a show for them, but actually taking care of the pregnant woman like this, Mother Fang was completely relieved, and took her son and daughter-in-law to say goodbye and went home that afternoon.

Then two baskets of eggs were delivered the next day. The Qian family was very happy, and the old Zhoutou was even happier. Then he waved his hand and asked Shirou, who had just finished his work in the field, to take Wulang and Liulang to Fang's house to help plant them. The ground, done enough ritual exchanges.

This year, the old Zhou's family is fast and meticulous. Not only in Qili Village, but also in Dali Village.

Compared to the lower home, the speed is much slower.

In previous years, their family had been hanging their tails to finish the work in the fields, because the father and son were not only doing business and selling meat, but also busy working in the fields, so the speed was naturally slow.

In fact, the land mainly relies on Fang's mother and Fang's sister-in-law, and there was Fang's in the past.

During the autumn harvest last year, Shirou went to Fang's house to help, but in fact, because of the poor harvest at that time, everyone was not very busy, so the feeling was not particularly deep.

And now is the critical moment for Spring Seed. Thursul Lang led his three younger brothers over to help. For the other party's family, it was like removing a big rock from his shoulders.

What's more, the efficiency of three people's farming is higher than that of the older Fang family's father and son. Not only the Fang family, but even the villagers of Dali Village are envious, secretly and secretly, "The second daughter of the Fang family is married well, half of it. Son, half son, this is really a half son."

Zhou Lang listened triumphantly, and Wu Zhou said to him, "Fourth brother, now we come to your father-in-law's house to help you, and when we marry a daughter-in-law, you have to go with us to our father-in-law's house to help."

"Let's talk about marrying a wife first."

"Anyway, you should go first."

"Okay, I'll just do it," Chuu Lang thought about something wrong, "No, when I wasn't married before, my eldest and third brothers often took me to help their Yue family, and now I haven't seen them come to help me. ah."

"The third sister-in-law is reluctant for the third brother to go back to her mother's house to help. Can you steal someone from the third sister-in-law?" Wuwu Lang rolled his eyes and said, "As for the eldest brother, if you have the ability, you can tell Dad."

Because the eldest brother's Yue family is also the father's Yue family, every year when the Qian family needs help, one of the brothers has to go there, not to help the eldest brother's Yue family, but because that is their uncle! uncle!

On Thursday, Lang felt regretful, and felt that the help he had been dragged around by several older brothers was in vain.

Wuwu Lang may have foreseen this, so he specifically pointed out that it is to let Shirou Lang make a promise, and don't forget it like a few older brothers.

The sun in April was slowly getting brighter, and the spring rain that fell last night made the water in the fields more. Early in the morning, the old Zhoutou drove his sons out of the house, and he carried his hoe to release the water in the fields. water.

Except for the fields of winter wheat, the paddy fields outside the village at this time are all green from a distance. These are the seedlings they just planted.

At this time, the water in the field should not be too much, otherwise the roots of the seedling will not be able to grasp the soil, and as soon as the water flows, it will be carried to float, and the sun will dry it again, and it will die.

So it only rained last night, and this morning, Lao Zhoutou took the lead to see the seedlings in the field, and it was time to release the water.

After watching the seedlings, he took a look at the wheat in the field. The winter wheat was already dark yellow. Old Zhoutou reached out and squeezed a handful of wheat ears and pinch open the wheat to see the grains inside.

He threw it into his mouth and chewed it, looked up at the sky, and thought, if it doesn't rain in the past two days, he has to hurry to harvest the wheat. If it rains, then the two fields should be harvested overnight...

Like Old Zhoutou, many people gathered in the field to see the situation. When everyone met, they couldn't help but stand together and talk.

"I don't know about the autumn harvest, but this season's winter wheat is being planted."

"No," Lao Zhoutou smiled until his eyes narrowed, and said, "These fields can be collected, do you think it will rain in the next two days?"

"Look at this evening, if there are stars, these two days can be more comfortable. If not, I have to go out before dawn. I have to take advantage of the rain before it rains. Otherwise, if it rains again, I am afraid it will fall."

"I'm also afraid of this," said the old Zhoutou, "the first ninety-nine steps have been taken. If it is damaged in the harvest, my heart will not die of pain."

"Uncle Jin, the wheat in your house is really good. I just saw it. The best place in the neighborhood is yours."

"Yes, yes," said this, and the other said: "I see that the winter wheat in the village is growing well this year. I walked through Dali Village two days ago and took a look. The wheat over there is better than ours. It's much worse, I guess it's worse than this."

As soon as these words came out, many people became annoyed, "When we planted wheat in the spring, we used all the wheat seeds we kept at home, not from Uncle Jin's."

The old Zhoutou said: "You don't want me much anymore. I exchanged it for you years ago. Now our family eats all the wheat you bought in exchange."

"This year's batch of wheat has been planted well. If possible, another season of winter wheat should be planted this year."

"That must be tiring."

"Why are you tired? Look at Uncle Jin's family. How hard was his family before? Don't you have a good time now?" The older person taught a lesson: "It's not hard work, you look at the people in his family. When did you rest your feet?"

Old Zhou Tou was a little proud, but a little unhappy that he was overturned, so he waved his hand away.

As soon as he left, the old man said without any scruples, "You guys have not married a good wife. If you had married a diligent wife, you would have made a fortune long ago."

"Uncle, you can tell us this, but you can't say it in the village."

Some people have different concerns, "Listen to what you mean, Uncle Jin is because of Aunt Qian..."

"He was lazy than you in the past, so his wife took him a little more diligently, and he gave birth to many sons. In the past, their family was notoriously poor in the village, don't tell me, the daughter of the old Qian family is still It's nice, both are diligent.

Old Zhoutou, who was not very diligent, returned home with his hoe, and after meeting his three sons, he said, "Tomorrow, when the sickle is opened, how many pieces of wheat can you see?"

Old Zhoutou saw Wuwu Lang brought the cow back from outside, glanced at the cow's belly, frowned and said, "Why haven't you been full after eating for a long time, are you careless to herd the cow?"

Friday Lang called Qu, "I even used a sickle to cut grass for it to eat, Dad, I think it's okay, the cow will get sick even if it is stretched."

Zhou Dalang nodded several times.

The old Zhoutou snorted: "Okay, take the cow back quickly and let it rest for a while. By the way, boss, come to the mountain with me in the afternoon, I have agreed with the carpenter in Dali Village, let me He called an ox cart for our family, and he had to send him three trees."
