A peasant girl through the ages

Chapter 49 Despair
Wang Chunxing yelled in the yard: "I definitely can't throw it away. It is most likely that I went to the field to have a look."

The old and the young in the family are all moving, those who should scoop out water, and those who excrete excrement, can't they stop going to the latrine?

Xinyu came out to help in plastic sandals, a poncho made of plastic bags containing chemical fertilizers, and a straw hat on her head.

The original dirt road has become a river, and even scooping water out is useless, because the rain has been falling, and the water outside will still be poured into the yard.

The reason why Xinyu's house is not as serious as the waterlogging is that she blocked the sandbags that she had prepared before the door last night.

"Brother, hurry up and get some sandbags, otherwise the water in this yard will be out of control."

Seeing the sandbags in front of Xinyu's house, Wang Chunxing envied: "I knew that we had learned from your family, who would have thought that it would be like this, hurry up, Lin Xia, take your brother to make sandbags, hurry up, this water won't be done again Just fill the house."

Just as each household was busy with their own affairs, the team suddenly sounded eagerly ringing the bell. Feeling the anxiety of the bell ringer, Lin Changhe and his neighbors ran all the way back, soaked through.

"Hurry up, don't be busy at home, the crops in the field are all down, so hurry up and go to the field to get crops."

Du Qiuchan and the others couldn't care about their own house when they heard it, they locked the door and ran into the field holding Xinyu.

Food is the lifeblood of the common people. Getting some water in the house is nothing compared to crops. Crops are the most important thing. No food means starvation. Even Xinyu understands this truth.

All the people in the village were mobilized, even children would be dragged into the field by the adults as long as you could work.

Seeing the crops lying on the ground, the women who were happily waiting for the autumn harvest a few days ago were the first to cry out, and their voices became louder and louder. The crops had already been uprooted and some were broken. They can't even support them, the crops will grow soon, as long as they are given another month or so, they don't have to worry about food rations for the coming year, now everything has come to naught, and the rain is still falling. Stop sign.

How to do?This question lingers in the minds of many men, to accept or not to accept?

Accepted, what should I do?If you don’t harvest them, there will be no harvest, and the crops that are dumped on the ground will germinate and become moldy immediately, making it impossible for people to eat them.

All the men looked at the captain Ma Zhenxing in unison, hoping that he would come up with a good solution.

Ma Zhenxing wiped his rain-drenched face, looked at the expectant faces, and said in a heavy voice, "Take it, otherwise there will be no grains, and you will count as much as you have. Hurry up, this year That's it, what can we do? God won't reward us with food."

The men walked away silently with red eyes, each calling on his wife and children to start harvesting corn.

Xinyu stood on the ground and looked at the fallen crops, and she felt uncomfortable.

Especially when Xinyu saw Lin Changhai squatting on the ground with his head in his arms, he sighed: "Uncle San, get up, the crops are harvesting."

Lin Changhe went over and patted his younger brother on the shoulder: "Everything will be fine, don't be sad, you can accept a little bit."

Lin Changhai was crying: "Second brother, what should we do in our family? We have run out of food. Look at the food, we can harvest it right away. Why can't we wait until the crops are ripe before it rains?" Ah, God is really going to kill us."

No one is in a good mood, but this is not the time to be sad, and it will become moldy after soaking in the rain.

"Oh, don't be so wordy, whoever is not like this, whoever is not sad, hurry up and go to work."

Lin Changhe scolded, and took his younger brother to the field to break the corn. Their Qingshan team basically planted corn and sorghum. They thought it was drought-resistant. Who would have thought that there would be a flood this time. What do you think? What can I do?

The women are rushing to harvest with tears. After working for a year, they are about to see hope. A rain has ruined everything, and a year's work has been wasted. The women are worried about how they will live in the coming year. What feeds the children?
Xinyu didn't delay either, and rushed into the field with a scythe to cut sorghum. Lin Yu in her previous life had never done this, but she had Lin Xinyu's memory, so it was easy for her to do this kind of work.

But the two female educated youths next to Xinyu were different. Firstly, they had never done this kind of work. When they came, the crops had already grown, and what they could do was weeding and fertilizing, so they still felt tired.

Sun Yan and the others thought that this group of people were crazy. They went to the fields to harvest crops in this heavy rain, so they couldn't wait for the rain to stop before doing it?
These two people were uncomfortable working, and they naturally had troubles. Sometimes they couldn't pull out their feet, and then they got the sorghum stalks. The small troubles on their side continued, which made the old ladies around them not very satisfied.

"Sun Zhiqing, when are you being hypocritical now? You will have no food next year. Do you know what it's like to have no food? If you don't know, you don't eat for a week, and you will know what it's like.

Do you know that if you don’t quickly pinch off the sorghum heads, they will become moldy, and eating moldy grain will kill you. "

The old women don't care about that, these people didn't do much work when they came, didn't they come to grab their food?For these educated youths, the big guy treated them with kindness at first, but today's behavior of these two lesbians completely made these women unable to bear it.

In Xinyu's view, these women's words are already polite enough, they just stabbed a few words, and they haven't said anything ugly yet.

Sun Yan's face was flushed red from being stabbed by these women, and she didn't even dare to say a word, she had to endure the pain, if she spoke again, she reckoned that those women would have to fight her.

Li Chunhua persuaded in a low voice: "It's good to be patient, I also cut the incision, there is no other way at this time, don't forget, we are running out of food, what should we eat without food?"

Although Fu Chen said that he had helped buy the food, neither of them had any idea.

Fu Chen and Zhang Hai also worked with the villagers, but they were not hypocritical. Although Zhang Hai worked a little slower, fortunately, he didn't dawdle, and the big guys could understand.

As for Fu Chen, he was similar to the old Zhuangjia, and his speed was not slow at all, not to mention that he still had eyesight, and let him pick up what some people missed.

The children of each family also pushed the carts of each family up the mountain, and the bullock carts were simply not enough.

Captain Ma Zhenxing is worried about how to dry and preserve the food?This is not to discuss with a few elderly people while working.

"Zhenxing, this thing can't be preserved. If it rains all the time, it will be moldy in two days. There is not enough firewood in the team to dry it. Otherwise, quickly distribute the food and let every household Dry yourself."
