The Sweet Little Fulang

The sun rises in the east and moves in the west, and the days pass very quickly. The warm spring sun is sandwiched between the cold winter and the hot summer, which always makes people feel short-lived.

The wheat seedlings in the dry land gradually turned dry and yellow, and they could be harvested in a few days. Shen Xuanqing and Lu Gu deliberately came back before the wheat harvesting, otherwise the family would not have enough staff.

Shen Yaoqing is a good farmer. He said that before the time, it will take two more days to dry, and the second room of the Shen family has not moved for the time being.

Country people can't be idle. Since they have a few days of free time, Shen Xuanqing and Lu Gu go up the mountain to chop bamboo while they get up early in the morning to cut bamboo. It was done, but the rabbit nest was relatively slow because it had to be built overhead. Behind them, Shen Yaoqing also went out and went to the new house to build the rabbit nest.

Shen Xuanqing carried hemp rope on his shoulders, and held a sharp machete in his right hand. Lu Gu walked on his left with a hatchet.

The good boy is like a child when he returns to the village. He always runs out to play with other dogs. When he went out, Lu Gu saw him, but he didn't shout and let him go.

The two walked up the gentle slope, Shen Xuanqing said: "This year, we don't need to buy farmland anymore. Now we have 13 acres of dry fields and 8 acres of paddy fields. The rice and noodles that are harvested in one year are enough to eat, and no amount can be grown. And take care of the things in the house."

Twenty-one mu of land is already a big household in the village. No matter whether it is farming or harvesting, it has to hire people. Otherwise, the ripe wheat and ears of grain will fall into the ground and cannot be harvested again.

Fortunately, the wheat and rice here are not in the same season, so the whole family can keep busy without hiring long-term workers.

"Yeah." Lu Gu nodded. He couldn't control the purchase of land, but he knew that with so many fields, he would never have to worry about food and clothing, and he was happy from the bottom of his heart.

If he didn't buy farmland, Shen Xuanqing only had 80 taels left in his hands, so he had to slow down a bit. When he had more money, it wouldn't be too late to think about it.

This time, the two of them went up the mountain to chop bamboo for the fence, and they moved the chickens and ducks to the new house, and opened a door against the mud wall on the other side of the river. In order to put the ducks in, there was no need to go around the front door.

Chickens don't need to be put outside, the new house is wide, but don't let chickens and ducks run around, otherwise the floor will be full of feces. Use a fence to enclose a place for chickens and ducks, where they can wander around during the day, and will not be confined to the shed.

The bamboo forest was not too far away. After arriving, Shen Xuanqing picked them up, and then bent down and chopped.

The bamboo was hollow and made a thumping sound when it was chopped. Lu Gu couldn't help at the moment, so he just stood by and waited.

Shen Xuanqing worked hard and was proficient. Soon, the bamboo forest was disturbed by Changzhu's fallen tip, and as soon as the wind tightened, he saw Changzhu fall towards the ground.

After the bamboo fell to the ground, the two people standing at the back came forward, and each used the machete and hatchet in their hands to chop off the bamboo branches, leaving only one long green bamboo.

The chopped bamboo branches were not thrown here directly. Lu Gu gathered the bamboo branches together. After a while, he took a bundle of hemp rope and dragged them back to the yard to dry. Both the bamboo branches and the bamboo leaves on top could be stuffed in. Burn in the stove.

The sun is getting bigger and bigger. Fortunately, the bamboo forest is thick and shaded, so that it will not be too sunburned.

When Shen Xuanqing was chopping the fifth bamboo, Lu Gu tied a lot of bamboo branches with hemp rope. It was not light. He didn't have the ability to carry it on his shoulders. Long, the bamboo branches dragged on the ground behind him, he dragged the hemp rope from his shoulders to his chest, and dragged it back home.

On the way, I met Da Hui, who was found by Sniff People. The dogs in the large area of ​​Qianshan are used to coming here. Even the good boy knows the way to the bamboo forest, but after seeing Da Hui, Lu Gu is still a little confused. Surprised, he freed his hand to touch the dog's head, and went back with Da Hui.

As soon as he walked up the gentle slope, he saw a good boy standing in front of the door trying to go home from a distance.

The good boy also saw him and Da Hui, and ran over with a bark.

Wei Lanxiang heard the news and went out to look. The two dragged the bamboo branches back to the yard together. Lu Gu put down the hemp rope and rubbed his shoulders. He asked, "Mother, is Brother Daqing going to the new house?"

"No, it didn't take long for you and Erqing to leave before he went out." Wei Lanxiang squatted down to untie the hemp rope. There was nothing to dry in the yard today. The weather is good and the sun is shining recently, so spread the bamboo branches to dry them.

"Okay, I'll go look for him, Erqing has cut a lot of bamboo, and he can't bring it back alone." Lu Gu said and went out, Da Hui and the good boy followed him.

Because the new house is large, he can see the mud wall when he walks straight along the river at the back, but because he didn't live in it, the back door is usually closed. shouted.

Da Bai and Da Hei slept here in the night. Before he entered the door, two small dogs barked to greet him. Shen Yaoqing was working in the spacious yard, and his hands were covered in yellow mud.

"Okay, I'll go right now." As soon as he heard his intention, Shen Yaoqing scooped up water to wash his hands, and immediately went to the bamboo forest.

The bamboo branches that he dragged home were enough. When he was just descending the mountain, Shen Xuanqing also told him that he didn't need to go up again, and Lu Gu was wandering around in the new house.

Delicious food and drink are served, Dabai's legs are already healed, he can walk and run, but occasionally he can still be seen a little lame, but he will be left in the new house in the future to look after the home and the hospital, and it doesn't matter if he is lame.

As long as you are steadfast and don't be lazy, once the work is done, it will be very fast. Shen Yaoqing will come to build the nest when he can't get down to the ground. Now two rows of rabbit nests have been built, and one row is separated by twelve rabbit nests. These two rows are against the wall, if it is not connected in the middle, it can be said to be one row.

According to what Shen Xuanqing said before, these are enough to raise 20 pairs of breeding rabbits. With the experience of building rabbit dens before, Shen Yaoqing built a bigger den this time, enough for breeding rabbits and four or five little rabbits to live in it. To grow up weaned to be able to separate.

There is a lot of wood piled up in the yard. Although it is not valuable, it is also an indispensable item for building a rabbit nest. As soon as Shen Yaoqing left, the door was wide open, but Lu Gu didn't go out. After a while, the bamboo will be dragged here, and the door is too closed to open the door. Trouble, why don't he wait here.

Tables, chairs and tea bowls have been moved to the front hall. Shen Xuanqing asked the carpenter to make two beds, and he can move back when he is done. He is tall and naturally heavier. If he sleeps here in the future, the bed will be made of wood It is definitely not strong. Since raising things is regarded as a business life, it must be lived and rested.

The saw is next to the pile of wood. Lu Gu has nothing to do. He has been at home for the past few days. He knows how long the wood to build the rabbit's nest is.

The sound of sawing wood was by no means pleasant, but I could hear the saw in my hand.

A layer of sawdust fell under his feet. Lu Gu worked hard, sawing off one of the logs and pumping them up. After comparing, he used black charcoal to draw a line up, and then continued to see.

Dogs have sensitive ears, and they don't like to hear this sound. They either go to the front yard to lie down and rest, or they fight happily in the backyard far enough away.

Not long after, the Shen Xuanqing brothers each dragged three bamboos into the courtyard gate.

The green bamboo was long and wet and heavy, Shen Xuanqing threw the three bamboos on his shoulders on the ground, rubbed his shoulders to rest, and Lu Gu poured water for both of them.

"I don't cook here, so I still have to make a tandoor. Anyway, I can boil water in a clay pot, so I don't need to bring tea from home." Lu Gu whispered.

"Well, that's for sure." Shen Xuanqing nodded with a smile, and added, "There is a clay pot, and you can also stew chicken and duck here."

Money and food are the most joyous. Lu Gu's brows and eyes suddenly twitched, but no, in the future, if the livestock are here, it's really easy to stew meat.

Spread the green bamboo and dry it in the sun. After drying, it is not easy for insects to grow. Lu Gu saw wood, Shen Xuanqing and Shen Yaoqing stirred and stirred the yellow mud, and built a rabbit nest together.

When the wheat can be harvested, no matter whether it is Qingxi Village or other villages, it will be harvested in two days.

At noon, the golden waves of wheat were blown by the hot wind. The entire second room of the Shen family was in the ground. Thirteen acres of land was quite a lot. Even if it was so hot, there was no rest, otherwise the wheat grains would be ripe and fall to the ground.

Ji Qiuyue delivered water several times in an hour, for fear that they would be thirsty.

Lu Gu had a cloth towel hanging around his neck. He could easily wipe off the sweat on his face and forehead. His neck was also sweating. The heat wave was rolling in the wheat field. It didn't take long for the cloth towel to be wet. , There are also some wheat awns that are the same as thorns on the clothes.

Shen Yan was so hot that she straightened up and took off the bamboo hat on her head and fanned it. The sun was so hot that she couldn't open her eyes. She squinted and frowned. A grudge.

From childhood to adulthood, people in the countryside have always seen farm work, and all they do is digging food in the soil. As long as they are not lazy and lazy, most of them only work hard, and when they are tired, they can’t complain at all.

Everyone was tired. Seeing this, Shen Yaoqing took the bamboo tube and took a few sips of water. He took a breath and said, "I asked, and tomorrow, after He Zhi has collected their land, he will be able to come and help, and Jinhu Jinlong will also be able to come. It's just a few days of tiring work in a year, and after cutting it, go to the restaurant and have a good meal."

"Buy more green plum brew." Shen Yan interjected, hot and thirsty, she remembered that the green plum brew was sweet and sour last time, and it would not be beautiful if she could have a full meal.

"Buy, how much do you want to drink? Big brother will buy you how much." Shen Yaoqing saw that her younger sister was so hot that she tanned in two days. Most of the heavy work in the countryside was done by men, but the younger sister suffered the same hardship. , which is not allowed.

"Well then, I have to drink two pots." Shen Yan smiled.

Because it was too hot, Lu Gu didn't really want to talk, and the sun made him almost unable to open his eyes, but when he heard the words "green plum", he recalled the feeling between his lips and teeth. After some encouragement, five people in the field bit him. Grinning his teeth and mowing his head, he cut the wheat again.

In the evening, the sky gradually darkened, and the wind became cooler, making the people seem to come alive. Taking advantage of this moment of comfort, many people did not go home, and were still harvesting wheat in the field. It was already dark when Shen Xuanqing and a few people pushed a cart of wheat home.

Ji Qiuyue's belly is getting bigger, but even if a woman in the countryside is pregnant, she can still work and cook, and she can still move.

After washing his hands and face with water, Lu Gu felt refreshed when the cool wind blew.

When he lay down on the bed at night, let alone him, even Shen Xuanqing didn't want to get up again.

In the darkness, neither of them spoke. They were extremely tired during the day and fell asleep quickly. Lu Gu quickly fell asleep. And Shen Xuanqing next to him turned over and took the person into his arms.

He thought about it, and put one hand on Lu Gu's still flat stomach. He didn't talk for half a month, he stayed at home and couldn't do anything at night.

Two months ago, when he was on the mountain, he was diligent and diligent, but Lu Gu's stomach remained silent.

Of course, if he hadn't known that Lu Gu was not pregnant, he wouldn't let him go down to the ground to harvest wheat.

Maybe it's too thin.

I have to get up early tomorrow, Shen Xuanqing closed his eyes and fell asleep after thinking about it.
