Chapter 104: harvest rice
Chapter 104 Harvesting Rice
Li Xiaoyu heard that you can eat whatever you want, so he decided to experience it, and just took this opportunity to visit the second and third brothers in the town middle school.
She was worried about her two brothers, afraid that they would rush ahead.
The 'Blast Furnace' is very dangerous. There is no safety guarantee. If you are not careful, an accident will occur. That is not a joke.
I also want to go to the county seat to see the eldest sister, but now I must have a letter of introduction when I go out, otherwise it will be difficult to move, and I can only find an opportunity to talk about it.
Captain and Li Shuangming took away all the strong labor of Banzhulin, but the village began to harvest rice tomorrow.
On the second day, the work bell rang, and everyone gathered on the dam in the storage room, waiting for dinner.
In the morning, I eat thick white rice porridge, noodles, and scrambled eggs with chives. I don't feel hungry when I eat noodles and cookies, so I can take it as often as I want.
After a meal, unfinished noodle cakes can be seen everywhere on the ground, and the porridge in the swill bucket is so full that it falls to the ground when the swill bucket can’t fit.
Bai Huahua's food was wasted like this, but no one came forward to say anything.
Passers stepped on the noodles at will, and some people even slapped their feet.
When someone wanted to pick them up and feed them to the chickens, they realized that there were no more chickens, so what else would they pick up!
Li Xiaoyu went to the cafeteria kitchen to get a basket and picked up all the noodles on the ground and packed them.
"Little Yu'er, why are you picking this up?
No one will eat it. Now that everyone is eating so well, who cares about things that fall on the ground. "
Li Erma advised her not to pick it up, it would not be useful if she picked it up.
"Second mother, I'll finish picking them up in a while, you go to work on the farm!"
There was no one in the cafeteria at this time, and they all went to work in the fields.
Li Xiaoyu took this opportunity to throw the noodles she picked up into the space and put a basket outside the kitchen.
When I turned around and was about to leave, I saw the white porridge in the swill bucket again, and I thought it was a pity.
These people don't know that when the time comes, they will beat their heads and blood for one bite, so how happy the ignorant are!
took a look at the entrance of the cafeteria, no one was there, Li Xiaoyu flashed back to the swill bucket, quickly put the porridge in the bucket into the big jar in the No. 2 library of space, and went out pretending that nothing happened.
Li Erma is eager to go to work on the farm. From today, she is also a person earning ten work points.
When she thinks that there are many people earning work points in her family, Li Erma is happy, and more means more food.
But it's fine now, I don't have to worry about food.
Anyway, I have white rice and meat to eat every day, what a good idea, what a good person.
Everyone in the village thinks that this kind of life is better than they have ever thought of, and they are so happy.
As long as they do the work every day, they don’t have to worry about the rest at all, even pigs and chickens are raised.
Accountant temporarily replaces the position of captain and assigns work to everyone.
All the tall ones go down to the fields to cut rice, and the older ones dry the water millet after threshing in the dam.
In two years, Li Xiaoyu has grown to the height of a head, barely able to work in the fields.
But children as old as her go to the fields, and work too slowly, because they are all in the fields.
She asked Li Changming and Li Fangfang to form a group. Li Fangfang was older than her and a little taller.
Li Xiaoyu brought a large wooden basin and rope from home, and tied two long ropes.
Li Fangfang filled the fields with rice, and Li Xiaoyu relied on her great strength.
Pull the rope on the ridge, pull it to the edge, and Li Changming picks it up to dry the dam, and Li Fangfang pulls the empty wooden basin back to put rice.
Three people are small, but the workload is comparable to that of an adult.
Others see that their combination is very efficient, and they also form teams.
There are old people and children in teams, children and children in teams, and old people and old people in teams.
In this way, the efficiency has been improved a lot, and by the time the work is over for lunch, a field has been harvested and transported.
This field has 28 acres. If it goes on like this, it will take eight or nine days to finish harvesting and drying. This is the best situation.
If it rains or something, we have to postpone it.
In order to finish the harvest as soon as possible, everyone wanted to go to work after lunch, but the accountant stopped him.
"Everyone is not too young, and work is already tiring, so let's rest for a while before going to work!"
An old man like Grandpa Li stayed on the drying dam to dry the millet. He originally wanted to go to the field, but was stopped by Li Xiaoyu.
"Grandpa, how can you go to the paddy fields when you are so old? You have to think about it for us!" Li Xiaoyu firmly disagreed with him going to the fields.
Grandpa Li saw that your little granddaughter was disobedient, so I was anxious for you, so I had to honestly go to the dam and hang out with a bunch of old men and women.
After the third day of work, many people couldn’t get up, especially some elderly people who fell into bed and couldn’t move.
At this time, the sky was not beautiful, and it rained heavily.
Well, now you don't have to work.
The millet in the field has already been fully ripened. The torrential rain hit the grains, and the grains fell from the ground. The rainstorm caught the strong wind, and the paddy rice fell.
Seeing that the mature rice could not be collected, several elderly people from the village squatted on the edge of the field and cried in the rain.
Several elderly people unanimously decided to go to the accountant and let everyone harvest the rice in the rain. If they don’t take it back, they are afraid that they will really sprout in the fields. If this continues, there will be no food to eat.
The accountant took a wooden horn and informed the whole village: "As long as you can move, you will go to harvest rice, and you will hurry up and hurry up.
We have to race against time and never bow to the storm. "
When he heard that he was going to harvest rice in the rain, Li Xiaoyu searched the space to see if there was any rain gear that could be used.
Finally, I found a raincoat in a pile of sundries. I don’t know when I put it in. I took out the raincoat and went to Li Ma.
The rain gear at home is limited, Li Ma was about to go out wearing a bucket hat, but Li Xiaoyu caught up and handed her a raincoat.
"Mom, put on a raincoat and take some medicine to prevent colds. I'll go get you medicine later."
Li Xiaoyu turned around and went into the kitchen, poured out a glass of well water, took out a bottle of cold pills, and handed over the water and medicine.
Mama Li took it and swallowed it. After drinking the water from the cup, she turned around and walked outside the hospital.
"Hurry up, it's not too late!"
Since she became a scorekeeper, she has come into contact with more people, she is more courageous than before, she speaks in an orderly tone, and her behavior has changed drastically.
The once taciturn person has become energetic, and her happy smile can often be seen on her face.
This is what Li Xiaoyu wants to see the most. The original mother is too tired to live.
She worked hard when the farming was busy, and she stayed at home to sew and mend when the farming was slack. She never went out to gossip with other women, and she had no circle of her own.
Now such a mother is very good, loves to laugh, does not have stage fright, I look forward to my mother can live more vividly.
Li Xiaoyu gave grandpa a cold pill, she ate one herself, and sent him to the storage room after seeing grandpa take it.
Comrade Li Accounting was standing on the stool and was preparing to take a roll call. Those who did not arrive would have their work points deducted, and then did the mobilization work.
