Tian Tian is indeed a good hand at farm work. Although she has been working for several years, she is now a little sloppy, but she can grab a sesame pole and swing a sickle, and she has regained her previous feeling in a short time.
The two siblings brushed and brushed, moving very quickly. After cutting for a while, they stood up and stretched their waists, while loading the previous bundles into the truck...
The two of them worked together, and the efficiency was extremely fast.
On the slope not far away, the excavator was roaring to work. The huge bucket dug out the entrenched shrubs and trees and the land that had not been touched for many years, exposing the yellowish sand.
On the other side of the excavator, the flat, light yellow hillsides that were exposed and dried in the sun already showed his achievements.
The excavator's movements are regular and orderly, which makes people fascinated without even realizing it, until Tian Tian shouts:
"Ye Ye, Ye Ye! Stop looking and get on with your work. They said they were here to help, but they paid us back, so we have to hurry up."
Tian Ye retracted his gaze and bent down to cut sesame seeds again. At the same time, he asked:
"Sister, I heard you can make money by driving an excavator, right?"
As siblings, how could Tian Tian not know what he was thinking?
At this time, he advised: "Don't think so much. To make money from an excavator, you have to have work to do, and you have to be paid well. Many construction sites have stopped now, and their business is not as prosperous as before."
Tian Tian remained silent.
Tian Tian knew that he was thinking about things because of the financial burden on his family, and he sighed at this moment:
"If we do this job for two hundred days, if we work for ten and a half months, we can earn four to five thousand yuan. Doesn't your training class start only next week? Let's join it later. If you work hard, you should be able to keep up.
.”
Studying in the field is hard work, but I don't know how to deal with grammatical prepositions.
Anyway, she has survived the most difficult days, and now that she has a chance, she also wants to help her brother improve his grades.
"I dont go."
Tian Tian turned his head: "English depends on vocabulary. I can just read and memorize it at home."
"Besides, don't you still owe money? Now that you have paid off these thousands of dollars, the burden will be much lighter."
Tian Tian refused.
Just read and memorize more English, but that also depends on whether you have enough time.
The courses in high school are not as good as those in junior high school. Each course requires a lot of effort. If you are held back by spending thousands of dollars on English, it will be worth the loss.
"Don't worry about it. It will take a year for our father to recover, but our mother will be almost recovered soon. Then I will go to work normally and save my monthly salary, and I will be able to recover in a year."
I can pay it off."
Of course, unless there are no expenses at home. If you really want to calculate it, I'm afraid the debt will last for two years.
But no matter how precocious Tian Ye is, it is easy to think without experience. Tian Tian said this because he wanted him not to worry so much.
Tian Tian didn't know whether to believe it or not, but he didn't say anything anyway.
The two siblings wore gloves to avoid the fat caterpillars lying on the sesame leaves. Beads of sweat fell from their foreheads. As the sun rose, the temperature increased, and their heavy breathing gradually spread in the sesame field.
Only then did Tian Ye sigh:
"Why don't we have a family like this in our village? If there were, our parents could sit there and do some work."
"Silly boy, my parents haven't recovered yet. For the same salary, wouldn't it be more efficient to hire someone else?"
Tian Tian picked up the sesame poles on the ground and bundled them, and said with a smile: "Song Tan's family is very good, and the wages they pay are generous. Even if I go to work, I may not earn two hundred a day."
…
The two of them worked hard, and the sesame poles fell down in clusters. As the sun gradually rose, the heat in the air became more and more obvious, so much so that breathing felt hot.
When the layers of sweat made it difficult to open my eyes, there was still one corner of the sesame field that had not been cleared away.
But halfway up the hillside, the excavator had stopped.
Sun Ziqiang got out of the car and was blinded by the sun's rays. When he saw that there were still people working in the col below, he quickly shouted:
"Hurry up! It's time to call it a day and work on the rest of the afternoon!"
It's too hot here, so don't give me heatstroke.
Tian Tian raised his head and saw that it was Sun Ziqiang. He couldn't help laughing, and then raised his voice and replied:
"There is still a little bit left. We will go back after cutting."
But it was almost ten o'clock now, and the temperature had soared to 38 degrees. Sun Ziqiang didn't do anything. He was already sweating all over just standing there!
He muttered: "Why is work so practical?"
The other side also followed to the mountain col.
When he stepped into the sesame field, he happened to see Tian Tian wiping sweat on his sleeves in embarrassment, a strand of hair stuck to his cheeks, and he was very embarrassed with the heat.
He walked over and took the sickle:
"I'll come, I'll come, that's it for a little while, you guys have a rest."
At the same time, he complained: "This is not urgent work! I can't finish the work in the morning and finish it in the afternoon. I'm going to suffer from heatstroke because of this. Song Tan doesn't have enough money to pay for your medical expenses!"
He is a grown man, and he works much more efficiently than the two siblings. At this moment, he grabbed the sesame pole with a wave of his big hand and swung the sickle up!
It didn't take long for the corner to be cleared.
Tian Tian and Tian Tian followed behind to pack the goods, and they piled the tricycles into rickety piles.
"Ouch!" Only then did Sun Ziqiang realize: "The sesame yield is good!"
The tricycles were piled a bit tremblingly, and with just two or three cents of them, one or two hundred kilograms of sesame seeds could not be produced!
Seeing Tian Tian hesitating to get up and drive, he quickly took the key:
"Go, go! It's not safe for you, a little kid, to drive such a full car. Let me do it."
After saying that, without waiting for anyone to answer, he rode the bike slowly up the hillside. Looking from behind, he could only see the sesame poles tied on the bike swaying... and then gradually disappeared.
Lost traces.
Tian Tian also breathed a sigh of relief.
This is a mountain road, and there are so many tricycles. He has never driven like this before.
Tian Tian had already wiped the sweat from his head again, panting and urging him: "Stop looking, it's so hot, go back quickly."
The two of them were really here to work. They returned to Song Tan's house and simply rubbed their faces with cold water, then rode back on their motorcycles.
Sun Ziqiang scolded the two of them for working too hard, but when he went back by himself, seeing that Song Tan was not at home, he didn't call anyone else, so he simply spread the sesame poles on the cement floor.
In such a hot weather, sesame seeds can be harvested in just a few days, and I don’t know whether they are white sesame seeds or black sesame seeds...
Just when I was hesitating whether to cut the rope, I saw the sister and brother coming over to say thank you, and then rode away neatly on their motorcycle.
Sun Ziqiang:……
He muttered: If Zhou Tianyu doesn't like such a hard-working girl, don't look for a lazy guy later!
Otherwise, if she works so hard, she shouldn't be squeezed to death, right?
