Li Xueshan and his wife drove home with Han Yuanfang to collect wheat seeds. In fact, she disliked leaving wheat seeds at home, but it was really getting late this year. In the end, she decided to use the previous wheat seeds and would definitely go to the city's seed company to buy them next year.
new seeds.
The couple saw that this little girl had already filled the corn basket?
In the past, this girl had never touched the spring water, but now she was not depressed because of her parents' death, and she actually took it upon herself to bear it.
Two acres of land requires sixty or seventy pounds of wheat seeds. Looking at the urea in the side room, the couple felt that this girl really meant something.
After the two acres of land were measured out for Han Yuanfang, the village chief and accountant all left, leaving the three of them alone in the field.
"Yuanfang, the water is convenient here in Liangjiafen. You see there is a well on your property. It will save trouble for watering in the future."
Han Yuanfang nodded, "Yes, I still feel sorry for me."
"Girl, it's up to you. You must live your life well."
Han Yuanfang nodded, "I will."
Li Xueshan supported Huozi while his wife held the animal.
Han Yuanfang started planting at the back. But after one ridge, Li Xueshan stopped letting Han Yuanfang start planting.
"Yuanfang, you can't plant seeds like this."
"Mom, what's wrong with me?"
"It's too dense. It won't work if it's too dense. One acre of land requires more than thirty kilograms of wheat seeds. If you plant them like this, fifty kilograms won't even be enough."
"Well, I know uncle, it's better for me to do some breeding. I don't dare to lead the animals." This big horse looked powerful.
The second row was much better, and the couple both sighed at the girl's cleverness.
Until noon, the couple brought steamed buns and pickles.
Han Yuanfang also brought out steamed buns and other pickles.
After eating, I only rested for ten minutes while Li Xueshan was feeding the animals.
It was not until four o'clock that two acres of land were planted. In the end, the three of them started planting together. Han Yuanfang really couldn't keep up.
After planting, the soil was covered with a bag. Han Yuanfang looked at it quite interestingly. People stood on the bag and swayed from side to side, and the animals pulled it, so that the seeds were covered.
Li Xueshan's daughter-in-law used a pickaxe to dig up the ground, and Han Yuanfang planted the seeds again. This time she covered the seeds with soil trodden by her feet.
It was almost seven o'clock, and the two acres of land were completely planted.
Han Yuanfang also got on the carriage. This day was really tiring. The Li family arrived first, and Han Yuanfang took out the money and gave it to Li Xueshan's wife.
"Yuanfang, ask your uncle to drive to see you off."
"No, no, Da Ma is tired enough. I can just go back by myself."
Han Yuanfang went back with a few kilograms of wheat left and a big pickaxe on her back.
She was a little anxious because the pigs at home were not fed at noon.
But no, as soon as I entered the yard, I heard the sound of pigs.
I quickly boiled the water, and the kang was also burning.
After feeding the pigs and chickens, I forced myself to take a bath and lost my appetite for food. Let alone shelling corn, I had nothing to do today.
I just made myself a cup of milk powder, set the alarm clock after drinking it, lay down and fell asleep.
The next day when I heard the alarm clock ringing, I really didn’t want to get up.
But I can't do it without getting up. I still have work to do at home and I have to go to school.
I forced myself to get up and felt pain all over my body.
I still cooked pig food and after feeding the animals, I felt better.
I didn't eat last night, so I was hungry this morning. After I was full, I sat down to shuck corn, working a little less.
It wasn't until 6:40 that I washed my hands, changed clothes, and ran to school.
The teacher saw that Han Yuanfang came to class today, so he started teaching new content.
All the teachers in the school knew about the Han family. Even though he was in sixth grade, they still wanted to take care of this poor child.
After class, the two girls went to the bathroom. "Yuanfang, fortunately you asked for leave yesterday. You had a full day of exams yesterday."
"I'll go back and ask the teacher for the papers."
"That's why a good student like you still asks the teacher for papers."
During the running exercise, Han Yuanfang gritted her teeth and persisted. She was not idle all day yesterday and her whole body was sore, but she still persisted.
Han Yuanfang knows that nothing is more important than a healthy body.
At noon, I go home, change clothes, feed the pigs, shell corn, and then go to school.
Three days later, Han Yuanfang finished peeling all the corn. The skins of the cobs were left to dry in the yard.
On Sunday, she went to the field and looked, but no seedlings had emerged yet.
Because I was worried about the safety of my home, I collected the corn stalks today. The leaves were all gone, and the stalks were put aside. When they were almost ready, they were bundled into bundles and carried into the yard and placed against the wall.
In the afternoon, Han Dongmei came over with her homework, "Yuanfang, why are you in such a hurry to get corn stalks?"
"I'm afraid it would be convenient if someone wanted to jump over the wall and get in outside."
Han Dongmei heard the same thing.
"Dongmei, you can do your homework by yourself. I've finished mine and I have to hurry up. I look at the cloudy sky and it means it's going to rain."
"Yuanfang, I'm going home then. You can work by yourself, and I'll help my mother grow cabbage."
"Are you going to plant cabbage?" Han Yuanfang really ignored this.
"Yes, we are going to plant cabbage. Do you still want to plant it?"
"Of course I have to plant it, and I also want to eat."
It was not until seven o'clock in the evening that some of them had not finished fading. There was no other choice but to do this. The corn leaves were piled together. It was cloudy today and I was worried that it would rain suddenly one day.
On Monday morning, I saw that the sky was getting darker and heavier. Before going to school, I covered the two baskets of corn with plastic sheets and linoleum. I also covered the corn husks. They were almost dry and could be used as firewood.
But no, the thunder started in the second period.
Han Yuanfang was glad in her heart that she had brought a raincoat.
There was no exercise or physical education class today. The old class just happened to seize the opportunity and had an exam anyway.
School ended at noon, and the rain didn't stop at all, but I still had to go home.
"Dongmei, let's put on our raincoats together and I'll take you back."
"okay."
Although the two girls had raincoats, they were also wet.
When Han Yuanfang got home, she still fed the pigs and chickens. There was nothing she could do, they were hungry.
The rain had no intention of stopping. Several people did not go to school in the afternoon. Han Dongmei told her that it was because there were no raincoats at home.
Han Yuanfang saw several girls coming to school carrying snakeskin bags. The ones who didn't come were because they didn't pay attention to study.
After school ended in the evening, the rain stopped. Han Yuanfang looked at the rainbow in the sky and felt it was particularly beautiful. The air was still good now. The road was too muddy. She was wearing rain boots. In fact, there were very few people like her.
Nowadays, every family has several children, and life is not easy. Few families prepare these for their children. Han Dongmei does not have rain boots and wears plastic sandals.
