The Space’s Twelve Zodiac Comes to Farm!
Chapter 491, the locusts are coming
Old man Wang's house.
The old man Wang looked at the village chief in front of him with a confused look, and the village chief asked him about the locusts eagerly.
"Are the locusts really coming to us?" Village Chief Li looked eager, "How serious will the locust plague be?"
"Uh...very serious!" Old Man Wang was stunned and nodded firmly.
Old Man Wang saw Li Yongnian behind the village chief, so he knew how to speak.
It must be the apprentice's dump again!
He's used to it!
"Is it really as serious as Yongnian said?"
Village Chief Li's forehead was covered in sweat. It was summer, and he was flustered. The clothes on Li Village Chief's body were soaked.
"Yeah! It's that serious!" Old Man Wang nodded with a serious look.
Although he didn't know what they were talking about!
But, he nods right!
The apprentice's pot, he took it!
Village Chief Li's lips trembled, but luckily the village had prepared in advance and stored some food.
If there is really a famine, the villagers will be able to get through the hardship as one united.
"Village chief, hurry up and tell everyone to go to harvest the wheat!" Li Yongnian heard the old man Wang said so, and hurried to his house, "I will not go back with you, I will go back to harvest the wheat!"
After Li Yongnian finished speaking, without waiting for Village Chief Li to respond, he ran from Old Man Wang's house to his own, took the sickle sharpened by Bailian and ran into the ground.
Bai Lian's family had a lot of food, but before the family split, Li Yongnian had never eaten enough since he was a child, and regarded food as more important than his own life.
So, when I heard that the locusts were really coming, I naturally started to worry.
Village Chief Li was stunned when he saw Li Yongnian's back, and after reacting, he quickly went home with a cane.
You have to beat gongs and drums to inform the villagers.
When Leizi was shouting in the village with a gong, Li Yongnian had already harvested a wave of wheat in the field with a sickle sharpened by white lotus.
"Dong Dong Dong!"
"The locusts are coming! It's time for everyone to grab the food!"
"The wheat is ripe! Don't wait any longer!"
...
Lei Zi banged on the gong and loudly advertised in the village.
However, no one wanted to pay attention to what he meant.
The weather is good now, the sun is hot, and the wheat has just matured, and some are mixed with some green wheat.
The weather for the past two days has been clear skies, and the sun is shining hot on the golden wheat ears.
These two days are just a good time to let the crops in the field dry.
If you take it back now, not only will the threshing be difficult to thresh, but you will also need to dry the wheat for a few more days. If the wheat is too wet, it will become moldy.
The village chief held a slender cane, and each household went to inform them one by one.
Everyone was a little shaken when they saw the village chief coming in person, but in order to sell their own food at a high price, not many people went to harvest the food.
In the end, Village Chief Li was in a hurry, so he could only let Leizi continue to beat the gongs and drums in the village, and the rest of the family went to the field to harvest wheat together.
The village chief has harvested wheat.
Li Yongnian's family has harvested wheat.
Uncle Wang's family is harvesting wheat.
...
Gradually, most people began to harvest wheat.
That's how it is sometimes, and if someone tells you that locusts are coming for you to harvest, you may not believe it.
But if you see other people harvesting food, you think, what if this is true?
Anyway, the weather is so good, cutting it home to dry and then threshing it, although it is a little troublesome, if the locust thing is true, it can really save the lives of the family.
The people of Wuming Village began to harvest wheat, and some people said that there were locusts coming.
The people in the next village were also panicked, and even at night, some people braved the moonlight to go to the fields to harvest wheat.
The first thing Bailian did when she woke up the next morning was to spread out the wheat with poles in the yard and dry it well.
In one day, the family's ten acres of land have been harvested cleanly.
It's not Li Yongnian's credit alone, but also Li Yi and the others.
Now Li Yi is faintly proud.
Not only can he chop people, he can chop wheat!
Even the master praised him!
On the second day, sporadic locusts came to Wuming Village. The villagers saw the locusts, and some people were still lucky.
What if this thing is fake?
The locusts are also here, but these are not enough to stick between their teeth!
Many old people began to panic. They were well-informed and knew that there were two locusts, and they reproduced very fast.
In the field, the crowd was lively and lively. The adults sweated like rain to harvest wheat in the field, and the children took a bamboo basket and picked up the ears of wheat behind the adults.
At this time, the people in their family will put the wheat ears they picked aside, grind them into white flour, and bake them a sugar cake with the white flour.
This is the happiest time for the children of Wuming Village.
It's okay now, the people in the village grow peppers and sell them to the Bailian family to make a lot of money, and they can eat some white noodles.
In the past, no matter how much wheat was grown at home, there would not be much white flour left at home, because the wheat had to be sold, and some coarse grains were bought back.
The price of coarse grains and white noodles are worlds apart, and white noodles are very luxurious things.
Therefore, many people in the village decided to take risks, thinking that when the locusts came, they would go over to harvest the crops.
The locusts can't eat up all the food in the blink of an eye!
The people in the old house of the Li family are also harvesting food.
It is Mr. Li who harvests the grain. He does not believe in Lei Zi too much, but he is a gentleman.
Even though he was fired, he knew something.
Even if there is no locust plague, the family is already in this situation, can it be worse?
There was not much land in the old house of the Li family. It sold a lot before, but the current land was bought by Liu Meijun with the money he got from Mr. Li.
No one in the family looked into the field, and no one came to see if Mr. Li had finished harvesting!
Mr. Li harvested wheat with a flat face, and carried a bag of wheat ears to the mountain very calmly.
Only Bai Lian knew that it was said by the little mouse brothers.
That is, Mr. Li is hiding his own food. He really can't believe the people in the old house of the Li family.
There are more and more people drying the ears of wheat on the road in the village. Many people send half of the people to the fields to harvest wheat, and the remaining half are at home to dry the grain.
When the sun is almost done, you can gather the ears of wheat, and then use a wooden stick to beat hard on the pile of wheat ears.
After the wheat kernels are shaved, the husks that have been taken off have to be lifted.
This stuff sticks to the skin and makes the skin feel itchy and scratchy.
The men in the field stayed behind with sweat, but they did not complain, after all, this was their own food.
Wheat is so much better than whole grains!
The conditions at home are getting better and better, so this year, I simply leave more wheat for the elderly and children at home, so that the elderly and children can also taste how delicious Dundun White Noodles is.
The third day-
early morning.
The sky was grey, the sun did not come out from behind the dark clouds, and the weather looked oppressive.
Those who got up early found that there were many more locusts in the field. If they were caught by hand, they might not be able to catch them in their entire lives.
At the same time, everyone thought of the village chief shouting in the village two days ago, and in an instant, everyone was shocked.
Go home without thinking.
The locusts are here, it's time to harvest the wheat.
