Rebirth of the Little Lucky Star in 80s
Chapter 319 Harvest 2
At this moment, Shen Jianlin and Lin Xiujuan also asked for leave and came back from the county seat. They went to the field with the old couple and the children early in the morning to harvest rice together.
Although Fubao is not young anymore, he will be six years old soon. The other family's child has learned to work in the field at the age of three or four, but the old couple still won't let her go to the field. It is said that the sun is too big, what if I get sunburned?
Not to mention the old couple, Shen Jianlin, his wife and the four boys were also reluctant to let Fubao work.
Before going to the field, Mrs. Shen told Fubao again, "Ninny, you just sit there and don't run around, you know?"
"I know." Fu Bao sat down under the shade of a tree beside the field ridge, and nodded obediently.
Mrs. Shen handed her two fruit candies, and saw that she was sitting obediently, so she went down to the field to harvest rice without worry.
While cutting, she suddenly felt something was wrong, and said to old man Shen who was working hard to harvest: "Hey, it's strange! Old man, do you think that there are no leeches this year? When harvesting, there are so many leeches. I was bitten, and now I don’t see any of them.”
Old man Shen has already cut a bundle of rice. In the past, even if he was bitten, he didn't care. Rural people who are used to this kind of work are not so delicate. Hearing Mrs. Shen's words, he lowered his head and took a look. It was really strange that he didn't see any leeches.
In the past, even if he didn't care about leeches, he would still be bitten. After going to the field, his legs would be covered with leeches, which was very scary to watch.
"I didn't see it either, maybe they all crawled into other people's fields." Old man Shen didn't think much, and continued to harvest rice.
Mrs. Shen was still puzzled.
She remembered that old man Shen had forgotten to sprinkle lime powder in the field to drive away the leeches this year, so she really didn't believe it when he said that he went to someone else's field.
But it was important to harvest the rice. Mrs. Shen was puzzled for a while, and then forgot about it.
Fu Bao snickered, and continued to eat his fruit candy.
Huo Jinxi also came, but he won't go to the fields. No, and I don't want to, no one in the Shen family asks him to help. In their eyes, although Huo Jinxi has always lived in the Shen family, he is always a guest. How can a guest work?
Besides, whenever Huo Jinxi was free, he would go hunting with Old Man Shen, and every time he brought back boars and pheasants, he would sell them for a lot of money. Even if the Shen family didn't want the money, he would still give it to Fubao, and would never take it back.
As a result, the money accumulated by the Shen family gradually increased.
They are almost becoming millionaires!
Now, it depends on the harvest of old man Shen's fish pond.
If the harvest is good, then it is appropriate to become a millionaire household.
Both Old Man Shen and Mrs. Shen have worked in the fields for most of their lives. They are good hands in the fields. Plus a few boys, from morning to afternoon, within a few hours, the family's three acres of paddy fields were harvested.
Today the weather is fine and the sun is very strong, so there is no need to sun-dry the rice after harvesting, and the rice is threshed there directly, and then they are pulled home by carts one by one.
Mrs. Shen didn't want her daughter-in-law to be too tired. In her eyes, she was a great contributor to the birth of five children, especially the birth of Fubao. Just because of this, she should be treated as her own daughter, so she asked her to bring Fubao and Huo Jinxi went back.
But Lin Xiujuan didn't rest when she got home. Cutting rice was physical work. The adults and children must be starving after returning home, so they started cooking before dinner time.
