In the rice fields, everyone seems to be very busy. Even the dog Xiao Qi has to shoulder the important responsibility of keeping vigil! There is only one exception, and that is Xiao Han!
Practicing the piano, taking a shower, and then going for a walk in the fields are his daily tasks now, and his life is as carefree as a god's.
Logically speaking, it is the most resentful thing for you to watch the fun while others are busy working! But the strange thing is that here, except for Sun Simiao and Ren Qing, no one else thinks there is anything wrong with this. I came from Seoul
The farmer said:
Marquis, isn't it all about eating and not working? Not to mention that this kind-hearted Marquis gives out rewards from time to time, so there is nothing to say about food! In this case, what else can you ask for?
Farmers are kind, but also a little cunning!
When I work here in Xiao Han, I don’t get beaten or scolded, and the food provided at noon is enough for the whole family! After a month of miscellaneous work like this, the money in my pocket is more than the output of my own one-acre land.
Much more!
Besides, before I came to work here, I had already done all the hard work in the fields, and let my mother-in-law do the rest, so my own farm work would not be left behind much!
Take the rewards here, eat delicious meals, and look at the food growing in your own land! The labor that you hated the most has turned into delicious food!
The clouds in the sky drifted away at some point, and the scorching sunshine shone down. Seeing this, the people working in the fields came up from the fields one after another to take a rest.
This is not because they are lazy, but because here in Xiao Han, people here are not allowed to work under the sun at noon!
Firstly, the sun is so hot that you can’t do much work, and secondly, you are prone to heat stroke. It’s better to take the opportunity to rest and avoid this period of time. When the sun is not so bright, you can quickly get rid of the work, so as not to delay both.
!
The shirtless farmers sat in groups of two or three under the trees to enjoy the cool air. Their hand-knitted straw hats were the best tools for fanning themselves. There was cold mung bean porridge in the kitchen, which was carried out by the fat cook and a few helpers. Everyone shared a cup.
Cool and relieve heat.
At this time, Xiao Han pulled Old Feng and walked towards the shade of the nearest tree. The sun in this season will leave marks on the body as long as it is exposed to the sun for a while. After taking off the clothes, the skin exposed outside the clothes was
The difference can be seen at a glance in the skin hidden inside.
The last time Xiao Han and Lunzi went to catch small fish in the ditch at noon, Xiao Han and Xiaodong hid in the shade to catch them. Lunzi, on the other hand, foolishly caught them in the sun. When night came, they took off their clothes and Xiao Han
Both Xiaodong and Xiaodong were fine, but the idiot looked like he was wearing a white shirt, which was quite funny.
I avoided the sun all the way and came to the shade of the tree. There were already several people below. When these people saw Xiao Han and the old man who often hung around, they quickly stood up and saluted.
"No, it's a hot day, don't mess with those vain people! If there is any fruit, get two and eat them." Xiao Han plunged into the shade of the tree, waved casually to a few people, and then sat down.
On a big rock under the tree, he fanned the wind with his hand and asked.
Several farmers were already familiar with Xiao Han, and with a slightly reserved grin, they took out plums and a handful of apricots from the cloth bag under the tree.
An old farmer took out all the fruits and put them on the rocks. He looked around and then said to a young man next to him: "San'er, go get some water!"
"Ah? Oh!" The young junior was stunned for a moment, and then he realized what he was doing. He quickly picked up a big ladle, ran to the ditch under the sun, scooped up a ladle of water and came back to wash the fruits for Xiao Han.
The fruits were washed quickly. There was no pesticide at this time. It was just a matter of washing the dust off.
The old farmer put the washed fruits directly into the gourd and brought them to Xiao Han. They were yellow, purple, and red, and they looked pretty good.
Forget about plums, although they look good, Xiao Han is most afraid of sourness! First, he picked up a yellow-orange apricot, shook off the water on it, and squeezed it a little with his hands. It was soft and seemed to produce water when squeezed. This is ripe.
A thorough performance.
First, I nibbled off a few bird peck marks on the apricot, and then threw the rest into my mouth. Sure enough, this apricot was as sweet as honey.
After praising, he kept talking and ate seven or eight apricots in a row. Xiao Han then wiped his mouth and stopped. As the saying goes: peaches nourish people, apricots hurt people! Don't eat too much of this stuff.
Taking a new bamboo cup and taking a sip of mung bean soup, Xiao Han took a breath of comfort and asked: "Whose apricot is this? Why is it so sweet!"
The old farmer looked at Xiao Han with a smile and replied: "Back to Lord Hou, these are the fruits of the old apricot tree in our village! If you like it, we will bring you some tomorrow."
Xiao Han nodded and said with a smile: "Haha, okay! But I can't eat for free, so let's wait for the fat cook to weigh you and pay by the pound!"
"Hey, a few apricots, what are they worth? We are working at your place, Lord Marquis, causing you trouble. The rice in the field is about to mature, and our work is almost finished.
, To be honest, I really can’t bear to leave you, Mr. Marquis.” The old farmer was talking about apricots at first, but for some reason, he got stuck on getting along with each other while working. When he talked about the emotional part, his wrinkled eyes became a little red.
Xiao Han glanced at the old farmer strangely and said: "What are you reluctant to give up? Who else said that the work is almost over?! Isn't this just the beginning? Let's wait until this batch of rice is harvested and use it to make seeds immediately and re-cultivate seedlings.
Plant once!
I discussed with the people in the Department of Agricultural Supervision. Although we planted a little late this year, we still have to try to get it harvested again within the year! So it will be busy in a few days. We need [Biquge www.xbqg5200
.info] While harvesting, the land will be plowed again. We must rush to plant seeds, so don’t take a rest and continue to work here!”
"But our labor..." The old farmer has long known that these fast-growing rice is used to grow food. What he is really worried about is the labor on his body. During this period, they have already spent all the labor in the past few years.
That's it, according to the rules, they should return home when this labor service is over.
"Hard labor?" Xiao Han rolled his eyelids and said nonchalantly to the old farmer: "It's better if the hard labor is over! Then I will hire you to work here directly, and I won't have to pay you secretly! By then, everyone will be able to work here.
The monthly increase is 30%, and if you do well, there will be a reward! How about it, now you can feel at ease!"
"It will rise by another 30%..." The old farmer didn't hear anything else, but he heard that it would rise by another 30%! Stars were shooting out of his dim eyes at this time, and then he knelt on the ground: "Thank you, Mr. Hou, thank you, Mr. Hou!"
"Okay, you're welcome, you all deserve this!" I can't stand a man who can be my grandfather kneeling down for me. This is not to thank myself, but to shorten my life! It took a lot of effort, Xiao Han just
Pull him up from the ground and tell him righteously that if he keeps doing this, he won't get a raise!
Still, these words worked, and the old farmer immediately became honest, and San'er even trotted out to tell others the good news.
Old Feng stood under the tree and looked at the old farmer with a thoughtful look. Just now, when the old farmer was discussing grain planting with Xiao Han, he suddenly remembered a very serious problem.
He reached out and pulled Xiao Han's clothes. When Xiao Han turned his head, Old Feng said to him in a serious tone: "Xiao Hou, I suddenly remembered. Looking at it now, the seeds produced by your fifty acres of land,
It’s enough to plant tens of thousands of acres of land. Where can we find so much land to plant it? The rest of the food in the fields has not grown yet, so we can’t pull them out. Let’s plant this instead!”
