Propose a hundred times

After the new year, the weather in early spring gradually warmed up. Although it was still cold, the sun finally poured down.In the south of the Yangtze River, rice is planted in two seasons every year. The sowing of rice in spring is concentrated in the second ten days of the first month. The seedlings grow for half a month, and they can be transplanted in February. Then enter the rainy March, and the farmers will be halfway through the spring planting. work.

Therefore, in the next few days, it is the top priority of the farmer to soak the seeds, circle the soil at the corner of the field, divert water, hoe, sow, then plow and harrow the field, irrigate and water, fertilize and step on ripening, and prepare for transplanting.

There are hundreds of households in Fenghuang Village, and there is no need to say how vast the fields are.Therefore, cattle, the main labor force for plowing the fields, are indispensable.Generally speaking, a cow can plow at least one or two acres of land every day. If water is put into the field, it will be more efficient if the soil is soaked.

However, cattle are more valuable than pigs, and those who can afford two pigs may not be able to afford one cow.Fortunately, although Fenghuang Village has a lot of people and fields, after all, the living conditions are not bad. It is not rare for people to raise cows. Those who have cows give birth to calves, raise them for rent, or sell them directly, which is a considerable income. .

In this way, people without cattle, plowing and raking the fields, naturally ask people who have cattle for help, pay some labor fees, or buy a meal after setting up a table, which saves effort and trouble.Those who are not willing to spend more money only rent cattle and tools, and work harder to plow the fields by themselves.There are also many families who don't want to spend a penny, and the whole family is dispatched, carrying hoes and rolling their trouser legs to the field, hoeing bit by bit, bit by bit...

In this busy farming season when the whole village is busy, the Yuan family's leisure is particularly prominent again.

In previous years at her natal family, even if she didn't like it much, Geng Qiuyue would go to the fields to help.Of course, just stepping on the fields and transplanting rice seedlings is enough for a delicate girl who loves cleaning so much. Not to mention those lingering leeches, caterpillars, field dogs, etc., soaking in the field for half a day, those feet don’t even want the...

But today is different, after Qiuyue married into Yuan's family, as Yuan Shao'an said, there is no need to farm at all.During this period of time, the housework that her new daughter-in-law did was nothing more than washing, washing dishes and lighting the fire, and occasionally sweeping the floor and picking vegetables...

You don’t need her to fetch water, you don’t need her to chop firewood, you don’t need her to cook vegetables, you don’t need her to cook pigs, and you often have meat to eat. You spend a lot of time flirting with your friend every day, and your life is extraordinary. Comfort is the life she wants, that's right.

Contrary to Geng Qiuyue, for people who are used to hard work, it is uncomfortable to be idle for a long time.Her eldest sister, Geng Qiumei, has recuperated for several months. She was already well a few years ago, and now she is very efficient at work.

Geng Qiumei, who is nimble in everything, can take over all the important tasks of sowing the family's half-acre field.After all, Zhang Shunde now has to slowly adapt to the role of a butcher. During the day, he travels around to make a living, and when he returns home in the evening, he has to maintain the image of a high-quality son-in-law chopping firewood and carrying water. It hurts.Qiumei has always been virtuous and considerate, so she doesn't want her husband to be so tired, she does the work of the Zhang family by herself.Although parents will inevitably persuade her not to work so hard, everyone in the family is strong and able to work, and they can help her with any work...

It is said that life is impermanent and incomplete without accidents.It's just that a year's plan has just begun, and a piece of good news that doesn't know whether it's good or bad comes out suddenly, and everyone who hears the news is caught off guard, and their faces change drastically—Geng Qiumei fainted.

Geng Qiuyue just went to the vegetable field to pick vegetables, walked home with a vegetable basket, and heard someone calling her from behind to tell her the news, which instantly reminded her of the blood-stained appearance of her own sister when she gave birth. All frightened white.

"Aunt Liu, what are you talking about? What about my sister? Have you notified my brother-in-law? Where are my parents?"

Aunt Liu is undoubtedly a warm-hearted person. She rushed to report to her, was so tired that she was out of breath, and hurriedly explained the whole story: "You are confused, your brother-in-law is selling pork in the town! Alas, your sister was in the field just now. Scattering the seeds, I sat down for a while. It happened that I was in my own field on the sidelines, and there were several people around me. Everyone gathered around to help her up, pinched her to wake up, and then fainted again... ..."

After finishing the story in one breath, Aunt Liu's face was very ugly. Qiuyue was concerned about her eldest sister's condition, and asked, "Did you inform my parents and invite a doctor?"

"Yes, someone is calling! If you are not busy, go and see if there is anything I can help. I will go back to the fields first." Aunt Liu was really enthusiastic. I just came to send a message, and I didn't say anything after being tired.

Qiuyue also knew how to express her gratitude in a panic: "Thank you, Aunt Liu, for making a special trip to tell me that the butcher at home asked my Shao'an to send some pig red to your home, and those kind-hearted folks."

"Hey, folks in the village, don't be too polite, why don't you give me pig red! I'm leaving, you go and have a look, your parents don't know if they are at home or notified!"

"Hey, good!"

As soon as the voice fell, Qiuyue people had already flew out.The dense steps on her feet, the dark color on her face, how can she still have her self-confident and dignified appearance...

It was early in the morning, and Geng Qiuyue went to the field to pick vegetables and came back. At this time, Yuan Shaoan was still feeding the pigs.

The hot hogwash was poured into the trough one spoon at a time, and the orderly dining team looked particularly pleasing to the eye.Apart from the slightly unpleasant smell, Shaoan was still very willing to stay in the circle and watch these guys huddled together and finished their meal, looking satisfied and lively.

Just watching, Shaoan wanted to pour out the dregs in the bucket, but Geng Qiuyue rushed in with a vegetable basket without warning, pulled her and walked out.

"Quick! Come out with me, my sister fainted in the field!"

"What?"

Shaoan was also shocked, his brows were tightened, he threw away the bucket and the spoon without saying a word, and ran away with Qiuyue.

"Then what's going on now? Did you fall into the field? Did you call for a doctor? Do you want me to go to Doctor Liang first?"

The situation is urgent, and the two have a tacit understanding. It is really thoughtful for Shaoan to mention this.With her here, Qiuyue's flustered mind settled down, and she didn't stop: "No, someone has already invited him. Now let's go to my sister's field to see if he is still there. If he is not, he will go back The Geng family is gone, let's go see what's going on and see if we can help..."

After running all the way, Geng Qiuyue's breathing became unstable, and her face changed from anxious and gloomy to tired and flushed.Shaoan's legs are long and strong, so he can't delay, so he said, "Then I'll run over quickly, you go home and put the food away and tell your parents to come again, run slowly, you hear me?"

Resoluteness is also part of her true nature of Yuan Shaoan. After finishing speaking, she pulled Qiuyue to stop, patted her face gently, and then ran away...

Behind him, Geng Qiuyue watched the figure go away, panting heavily, her brows furrowed and furrowed.

The eldest sister didn't know what was going on, she just fainted again!Such an unpredictable situation is really annoying.

Although this sissy in my family is usually not good enough to be beaten, she is always so reliable at critical moments, and she can feel at ease with this person in everything.

Please God, my eldest sister is unlucky enough, please don't bother her anymore!
