A peasant girl through the ages

Chapter 50

Ma Zhenxing discussed with a few old people, and this method was feasible. Ma Zhenxing shouted: "Everyone, work harder, and share the food when we go back. Hurry up."

Where can we go so fast?It was raining heavily, the ground was muddy, and the movement was not as convenient as usual. If so, the villagers were all crazy, and they couldn't see the chatting situation at all, and they were all scrambling to collect.

In the rain curtain, Xinyu only saw busy figures, she couldn't see who was who, and everyone was thinking of getting the food back quickly, so that they wouldn't be hungry in the future.

Fu Chen found Ma Zhenxing at this time: "Captain, if this goes on like this, the food harvest will not be finished, not to mention people will definitely get sick. Hurry up and ask those able-bodied children at home to get some chili water or ginger water, or else a large number of people will get sick too." trouble."

Ma Zhenxing was so busy that he forgot about it, it was only when Fu Chen reminded him that he remembered it, right? Don't underestimate a small cold, if this thing is not handled properly, it might kill a child.

"Okay, I'll send someone to get it right now."

And Xinyu asked the captain to send him home. The ginger at home must not be enough. Xinyu looked for it from house to house. Boiling ginger water for the people on the mountain, a few old ladies started immediately, Xinyu took ginger from other people's homes and sent it to them, and then when the ginger water was boiled, she covered the bucket with a lid and picked the ground to give to the workers sent.

These old ladies are also interesting. After the ginger is boiled, let Xinyu go to fetch the chili water next time. It is estimated that this thing will not be cold after drinking it. It is estimated that children can be quite spicy.

Xinyu also brought a jug of wine from home for his father to drink, this thing can warm the body, and it is better to drink than not to drink when it is cold.

The ginger water on the first trip was drunk in an instant. It would be a lie to say that it is not cold. Almost no one in the countryside buys raincoats, let alone umbrellas. This thing can only be seen in the city. Country people wear a sack It's normal to make a rain cape, and some people like Xinyu make a rain cape out of a plastic bag filled with fertilizer.

The chili water that Xinyu made for the second time was welcomed by the gay men. It was hot enough to make her body warm after drinking it. Lin Changhe carried the shochu stuffed by his daughter in his pocket, and took a sip when it was cold. The people around Followed by dipping.

"Changhe, you have raised your girl well, you can think of all of this, it's really good, it's not tiring to pick such a long way."

Lin Changhe responded with a smile: "That's right, I don't know who brought it up, how can the child I brought up be bad?"

Someone teased Lin Changhe: "Second Uncle, when I give birth to a daughter, you will always help me take care of her."

Lin Changhe rolled his eyes directly to the other party: "Don't you look at how old your second uncle and I are, I'm old, I can't carry it anymore."

Lin Changhe doesn't have the energy to take care of other people's children, how much will he give?

How could those children be as easy to take care of as Xinyu?That girl didn't like to cry since she was a child, unlike those children who cry all day long, who can bear it?
Lin Changhai and Lin Changgui came to ask his second brother for a drink. It was too cold, and after a while, the heat on his body disappeared.

"That's all that's left, you two share the drink."

"Brother, do you still have some in stock?"

Lin Changhe glanced at the fourth child: "Changgui, your brother and I are poor and everyone in the village knows that it was given by your sister-in-law's uncle."

Lin Changgui smiled, as long as there is wine to drink, as for where it came from, he doesn't care, anyway, it didn't cost his family's money.

It’s almost dark after this busy work, and the adults have already sent the children home to cook. After all, they are children, and they can do what they can, but adults can’t stand the weather, let alone children. Come and help me Just take a moment to understand how difficult it is for adults.

"Okay, let's stop here today. Remember to go to the team to get the medicine and food. Each household will get some of it back first. Dry it when it needs to be dried. I don't care what you think, as long as the food is not allowed to dry." Just mess it up."

After working for a day, men can't bear it, not to mention women, all of them are gritting their teeth and persisting. Everyone is looking forward to the clearing of the day, but it's a pity that the expectations of the big guys seem to have never been heard. .

Xinyu went home and prepared the meals, and when the kang was hot, he took the guys to the team and waited for the food distribution.

Du Qiuchan and his wife actually went to the team, but let Xinyu drive them home. After standing in the heavy rain for a day, their hard bodies couldn't bear it, so Xinyu asked the couple to take the medicine and hurry up When I went home to rest, I boiled the medicinal soup and drank it.

The captain asked Lin Zhengde to get the medicine. From Xinyu's point of view, the old couple looked a bit blank. Do you still use the captain to talk to them?

What you do is this job. There are three sons, several daughters-in-law and grandsons of their family on this mountain. The old couple didn't expect this, and Xinyu didn't know how to evaluate these two.

The corn was soggy that it was weighed and distributed to every family, but every family was worried when they took it home. Many people’s houses were not enough to live in. How could there be an empty space to bake food?
Xinyu didn't know why other people's families were worried, but their family didn't worry, because there was enough firewood and they were all stored in the side mansion, so there was no fear of running out of firewood.

The two neighbors next door are worried. It’s still far away from winter. Generally, firewood is stored after the autumn harvest. Most people usually store enough firewood to burn for a period of time. They guard the mountain and can go up the mountain whenever they need it. So everyone is looking forward to it, let the rain stop quickly.

Xinyu asked Du Qiuchan and Lin Changhe to eat, take a hot bath, drink medicine and send them to sleep on the kang.

"I still have everything to do, Dad, Mom, I've been tired for a day, you guys have a quick rest and you have to go up the mountain tomorrow."

Du Qiuchan and Lin Changhe were also really tired, but she was still a little worried about sleeping: "You have to hang up those corns quickly, and find a way to dry them, or they will be spoiled."

Xinyu waved her hand: "Don't worry, I've already figured out a solution."

When the husband and wife both fell asleep, Xinyu began to peel the corn kernels. It was almost impossible to dry the whole cobs. The cobs themselves contained a lot of moisture. Even if their family had enough firewood, she didn't have the time to dry them one by one. The same method is used for sorghum. The fruits are pulled down with shovels and dried in a centralized manner.

When Du Qiuchan and his wife woke up the next day, the food they had received was almost done. Although it was still a little damp, it might be pretty good to do so.

"Oh my god, our girl didn't sleep all night?"

Look at the pot again, the food is ready, Lin Changhe hurriedly went to your daughter's room to take a look, and then walked out with red eyes.

"The child probably didn't sleep last night, otherwise there are so many, how did she get it out?"

Upon hearing this, Du Qiuchan's eyes were filled with tears, and her voice was a little choked up: "You said that this child is so sensible, it makes people feel distressed——"
