Jiang He, who was working in his family's field, sneezed.
He raised his hand to rub his itchy nose and continued working without delay.
Their family was given a share of half a person, and his mother was famous in the village for her poor health. So the village cadres took care of their family and gave her half a share, but when the time came to distribute the rice, she would be given
His wife counts a full share.
This regulation is not just for Jiang He's family, but for families in the village who have actual difficulties, and the village cadres have provided some help accordingly.
Jiang He didn't let his mother come to the fields, even if his mother said she wanted to help pick rice ears, he didn't agree.
Qiu Laohu is very powerful, and his mother's body will definitely not allow her to come to the fields. So Jiang He has to fight alone, but fortunately he is young and has strength.
In a few days, they can finish their share.
The autumn harvest is in full swing.
No matter what happens in the meantime, the work at hand cannot be delayed.
After the first day of work, Su Xue's family in the small team undoubtedly made the fastest progress. The Tiandi family next to it had four or five strong workers, but their progress was not as fast as Su Xue's family.
There is no way, Su Xue's family only has two copies, and others have five or six copies, which is definitely not comparable.
In addition, Su Xue also has a little expert He Qingdong who is super good at harvesting rice, so the progress will be much faster.
Su Xue lingered in the field until the afternoon. When it was almost time, she went home to cook. Dragging her sore body, she climbed up the field and walked along the road in the middle of the field to the village.
There were many old people or pregnant women who were going home to cook on the road, and Su Yun walked with them. When she heard them talking about the tiring autumn harvest, Su Xue no longer wanted to talk.
It's just tiring.
However, she thought that she was so tired even though she had not worked very hard today. She was so tired that she didn't even want to lift her arms, so He Qingdong must be even more tired. Su Xue shamelessly asked the kind-faced aunt next to her.
Does anyone have chickens to sell?
She wants to buy one.
The aunt she asked belongs to a small group, and there are more fields here than a small group, so she is the main family of the Su family. According to seniority, Su Xue will call her third aunt.
The third aunt's surname is Zhu and her name is Laidi.
Zhu Laidi smiled softly when she heard Su Xue's question.
"Xiaoxue is the one you care about. Are you going to buy chickens and kill them for him to eat?" Autumn harvest is such a tiring job. Any girl in the village who has a partner will come to work for the future father-in-law's house.
Therefore, He Qingdong's behavior is not unconventional.
It was that other families came to help after their own homes were almost settled. No one came to help with the work on the first day like He Qingdong.
Su Xue smiled shyly.
"Well, Third Aunt, do you know anyone who has extra chickens for sale? Our chickens haven't grown up yet..." Those chickens were just over a month old and were only about the size of her fist, so they couldn't eat them yet.
Zhu Laidi smiled and said, "The boss of the He family is very capable. I originally thought he was not a good person, but I didn't expect that he would feel so sorry for his partner after he found a partner. He is a good young man."
It's really simple to change the opinions of the aunts and uncles in the village, just be diligent and treat the person you want. Obviously, He Qingdong's performance was very good, and there was nothing worthy of criticism.
Therefore, Zhu Laidi thought about it carefully and pointed out a large chicken farmer to Su Xue.
"Did you know about the blind mother-in-law over at Team 2? Her family raises a lot of chickens."
The blind mother-in-law was not completely blind, but she could not do much farm work, so she raised some chickens at home, and usually used eggs and chickens to exchange money and food with others.
"Her chickens are very well raised. One weighs five or six pounds. If you buy them, she will definitely sell them."
"Well, thank you, third aunt."
While they were talking, they had already reached the village. Su Xue separated from Zhu Laidi and the others and walked towards the warehouse where she lived. She took a sip of water when she went home and took out one or two pieces of five yuan from the small box of the rent money.
.
She didn't know how much a chicken would cost, so she thought about it and took out a few dollars in change.
I went out and called Su Baoer, who was playing outside, and they went to the blind mother-in-law's house to buy chickens.
During the autumn harvest, the blind mother-in-law was not assigned to work. One reason was that she was old and could not see, and another very important reason was that she was a family member of a martyr.
Su Xue also entered the yard of Granny Qin's house and suddenly realized it when she saw the certificates hanging on the door.
No wonder Granny Qin lives here alone and raises more than ten chickens, but no one dares to take advantage of her family. It turns out to be because of this.
Granny Qin caught a big rooster weighing five or six kilograms from the chicken coop on one side. Su Xue glanced at the chicken coop and Granny Qin accurately caught the largest rooster for her.
She quickly picked it up.
"Wait a minute." Granny Qin did not hand the chicken directly to her. Instead, she went to the side and touched it. She took off a piece of vine from the pile of dry firewood and tied the big rooster's feet before handing it to Su Xue.
.
Su Xue took it and her hand sank.
What a heavy big cock.
She quickly asked Granny Qin how much the cock cost.
"Just buy me five kilograms of salt and three kilograms of lard." Granny Qin did not ask for money, but asked Su Xue to buy things for her. Su Xue had heard of Granny Qin's rules before she came, so she was honest
nodded.
"Okay, then I will buy it for you tomorrow."
"Yes." Granny Qin agreed coldly, then turned around to see off the guests.
Su Xue was embarrassed to stay too long. She asked Su Baoer to say goodbye to Granny Qin. When she saw the chickens in the chicken coop, Su Xue boldly asked: "Grandma, do you have any eggs here? If so, please move some and give them to me."
Can I?"
Grandma Qin laughed.
Don't know what it means either.
Just when Su Xue thought there might be no chance of singing, Granny Qin said "wait" and turned around and entered the house.
From beginning to end, she never let Su Xue or the others step into the house.
After a while, she came out with another bamboo basket. Granny Qin opened the lid of the bamboo basket, and there was a basket full of eggs inside, and the eggs were quite big.
You can see that Granny Qin collected the eggs very well.
Su Xue quickly took it again and asked Granny Qin if she wanted money or something to buy.
"Give me two more ounces of oil."
At this time, eggs cost three cents each, and twenty eggs cost six cents. Grandma Qin only paid two taels of oil, which was not much.
She didn't ask for an exorbitant price.
Su Xue nodded and wrote down everything Granny Qin needed before taking Su Baoer home. When crossing the dam, Su Xue asked Su Baoer if she knew where the responsibility fields of the third team were divided?
"Go and tell Grandma He that there is no need to cook tonight. I will ask my brother to deliver food to them later."
He Qingdong came to help their family harvest rice today. She was a little embarrassed to face the old lady. She happened to go home to cook, so they cooked the meal together.
Two more people can't eat much.
Su Baoer nodded in agreement and ran away. Su Xue, on the other hand, went home to make hot water and prepare to kill the chicken.
However, when the water boiled, Su Xue took the knife and looked at the big rooster in front of her and got into trouble.
