The entire summer harvest lasts from late August to early September.
Fortunately, God cooperated, and there were only a few scattered light rains in the middle, which stopped quickly and did not affect anything.
After the crops are recovered, everything is not over yet.
We still need to wait for Li Zheng to bring people from the county to start collecting taxes door to door.
After paying the tax, you still need to dry it. Otherwise, some of the work has a very high moisture content. If you store it directly, it will easily cause mold.
There are also rape flowers that need to be processed and dried, and then the seeds are extracted for oil.
Not to mention the follow-up work, the work in the fields is not over yet, and we still need to prepare for the real autumn harvest.
Most crops are harvested in autumn.
That is the most important battle of the year!
In other homes, when it comes to the drying step, the summer harvest is almost over.
But there is one more step to keep your home warm in winter.
Share food.
After all, the family is divided, and when Xia Huan takes back a batch, it is natural to divide them into batches.
Otherwise, every family will be almost out of food.
Last year's grain reserves are almost gone.
Therefore, after people from the county collected the taxes, Dongnuan's family directly divided the newly recovered crops.
As for what to do after the division is completed?
That's everyone's own business.
Dong Nuan's new house was suspended for a period of time due to the summer harvest.
As soon as the summer harvest was over, everyone resumed work immediately regardless of fatigue.
Because in the winter and spring, I was quite kind, and I didn't ask for your help in vain. I paid for the work and took care of the food. Everyone worked in full swing, and within a few days, the remaining place was built.
Originally there were three main rooms, a utility room, a small woodshed, and a chicken coop. With the strength of the people and the strength, they were quickly built.
As for furniture, Dong Nuan said she could do it, and she would use what she had at home first.
Dong Sanchun firmly believes in Dong Nuan's words, so naturally she means what she says.
Dong Nuan has indeed been busy at Hanjianglou's house recently. In addition to carving some small pieces, she also built two new wooden basins, built a table, and nailed a few small benches out of leftover materials.
In short, he made the best use of the wood he had no use for.
There is an old cabinet at home that can be used first, and there is a dining table. The room over there is bigger, and the kang can be made directly without making a bed, so the bed does not need to be made.
Therefore, these furniture are enough for the time being.
Farmyards don’t pay much attention to the auspicious time to move. The most you can do is ask your neighbors and choose a good day to move there.
The summer harvest had just ended and everyone was tired. During the winter and spring, there was no mention of the greenhouse. The family moved into their new home in a low-key manner.
From a cramped small room to three spacious new houses, Dong Yao still couldn't believe it.
"Wow, the windows are new, the window sill is so flat, wow, the woodshed is so clean." Dong Yao walked around and looked everywhere, Dong Tao and Dong Tao also looked around curiously.
The two of them couldn't believe that they could sleep on the kang now?
You know, sleeping on a bed is fine in summer, but it’s really cold in winter. The quilt at home is still thin. Thinking about the feeling of shivering in the quilt in winter, it’s really sour and refreshing.
Is there a kang now?
Dong Nuan was also looking around, preparing to see if there were any wooden furniture that needed to be repaired urgently.
Hearing Dong Yao's words, Dong Nuan looked at him with a smile: "When you know that the woodshed is empty, you should take action."
Grain syrup
Dong Yao:.
If I am guilty, let the law punish me instead of letting my sister punish me!
Dong Yao was so frightened that she tucked her tail between her legs and did not dare to say any more.
But, did he think he could escape this way?
After a while, Dong Sanchun took two of the newly bought hatchets and shouted Dong Yao's name: "Dong Yao, come here and collect firewood with Dad, otherwise you won't even have to cook dinner."
Dong Yao:……
Wow, this is not true, am I still a baby?
Dong Yao gave Dong Nuan a bitter look, and Dong Nuan smiled kindly at him: "Go ahead, Hanjiang Tower will take you with you, and you will definitely be able to get a lot of firewood."
Dong Yao: No, I don’t want to!
However, he did not dare to say it, so in the end he could only turn around and follow Dong Sanchun up the mountain.
The Dong Wu family has also been slowly changed recently. If she knew that her Yaobao was going to collect firewood, she wouldn't cry like crazy?
What's more, now that she has straightened her back, she can take charge of her own business.
However, when she heard Dong Sanchun's words, she just raised her head and glanced up, then continued to clean up the corners of the house without speaking at all.
With Hanjianglou taking them with them, Dong Sanchun and the others came back with a lot of firewood very quickly. Eight-year-old Dong Yao also came back with a small bundle on his back, which bent his young waist (...)
Hanjianglou put away the firewood and helped with a lot of work. He also contributed a lot to building the house recently.
When I worked as a part-time laborer at Master Jixiang's house, I was reluctant to eat the buns and fed them to Dong Nuan every day. Almost everyone in the village knew about this.
The second uncle was so angry every day that she really wished she was Dong Nuan. She even let Dong Xing get in front of Hanjiang Tower, only to be stabbed back by Dong Nuan with a soft knife.
Dong Nuan didn't need to say much, she just needed to ask: "Second aunt, does Aunt Liao know about Dong Xing going to Hanjiang Tower?"
The two families have decided to get married. When Liao Mingkun comes back at the end of the month, he will probably start preparing for the wedding.
Being stabbed by Dong Nuan like this, Er Bo Niang was so angry that her face turned blue, but she didn't dare to take risks. In the end, she could only ask Dong Xing to be more honest.
But Dong Xing was greedy for steamed buns, so she bothered her a few times. Hanjianglou was not used to her problems. At first, she just had a cold face. Later, when she found that the little girl was getting more and more shameless, she just gave her a cold face and told her to get out.
, Dongxing was so scared that she never dared to go again.
Dong Sanchun didn't like Hanjiang Tower in the past, but when she didn't care about Dong Nuan, her daughter, everything was fine.
But when you really care about your daughter, your son-in-law is your enemy!
However, seeing Hanjiang Tower coming over and helping him do this and that with a wink, Dong Sanchun felt that Hanjiang Tower had become more pleasing to the eye.
Dong Nuan didn't help because Dong Wang and the others came over to learn how to weave baskets.
The few people who handed over the eggs learned very seriously and can now make some simple baskets.
Because they have learned well and the children themselves have the intention to do so, this group of apprentices have renewed their fees and will continue to study next month.
After an hour of teaching, Dong Nuan sent the children away.
The sky has darkened, and Hanjiang Tower is ready to go back.
The sheep haven't been milked yet, and the cheese hasn't been cooked yet, so there's quite a lot of work at home.
Of course, the most important thing is that in September, the weather is getting cooler, and he has to start cutting autumn clothes for Dong Nuan.
Dong Nuan has gained some weight recently, and her complexion is much better than when she first came here. Her hair is still withered and yellow, and she won't be able to grow it back in a while.
Hanjianglou couldn't come up directly to measure the size, so I asked Dongnuan directly.
After being together for such a long time, Hanjianglou has also developed a bit of Dongnuan's temperament. Many things should be said directly and don't make any corners, otherwise the little girl won't know where to go.
"It's a little more here, two fingers wide is enough. If it's here..." Dong Nuan gestured to her waist while talking to Hanjianglou about the size.
Hanjiang Tower had never seen such a scene before. Even if he regarded Dong Nuan as a child, the person in front of him was a little girl after all. He was too shy to look at her, and was afraid that he would not be able to remember the size. He felt awkward and at a loss.
Dong Sanchun looked at it from a distance and saw something was wrong, so he quietly touched it and asked faintly: "What are you talking about?"
