Chapter 137.

After returning home, Xiang Jin directly brought the pannier containing the little pheasant cubs to her grandmother and told her to help make a bamboo fence to raise them, and then hurriedly picked up another little pannier to go out.

Her grandmother wanted to ask her why she raised pheasant cubs?But seeing her in a hurry, it was time to say, "What are you doing here?"

Xiang Jin said, "Grandma Mo's family is breaking corn, I'll help them for a while."

When her grandmother heard it, she said, "They are breaking corn, why don't we know?"

Xiang Jin nodded, "Well, I just finished handing over the cattle and saw them breaking on the way back.

Last time when our family broke corn, Grandma Mo and Grandpa Zeng both came to help our family tear the corn cobs for a day. They broke us today and we should also help them. Grandpa Zeng has high blood pressure and cannot carry heavy loads. "

After hearing this, Xiang Jin's grandmother nodded and said, "Yes, yes, let's go, I will go with you," she said, going to get the back strap.

But Xiang Jin took her by the hand and said, "Grandma, don't go, I'll just go, their house doesn't have much corn, so they won't have much time, you should stay at home, wait a while Time to make lunch."

Only then did her grandmother remember that the family still employs craftsmen, so she said, "That's fine, then I won't go, then you tell your Grandma Mo and Grandpa Zeng that I will cook lunch for them together. Tell them to stop working at lunch."

"okay!"

Xiang Jin went out with a basket on her back, and soon arrived at Grandma Mo's field.

After Yan Chen saw her, he said, "Why are you here?"

"Here to help you!" Xiang Jin walked to another line and broke a bag directly, then she stood on tiptoe and stretched her neck to look into the back basket behind him, "Is it a stick that was torn directly or is it attached? Did you break the grain box together?"

Yan Chen turned the pannier on his back towards her, "I just tore the corn on the cob."

Xiang Jin nodded, "Oh, good!" Following Xiang Jin, he tore up the bag of corn in his hand just now, then threw it into the back strap behind his back, and followed her to tear up the second bag of corn. corn on the stalk.

After a while, Grandma Mo and Grandpa Zeng came out with a basket full of corn cobs, and seeing her, they asked her why she came, saying that they didn't have much corn at home, and they could do it by themselves.

Xiang Jin said, "It's okay. Anyway, I'm fine right now. If there are more people, you should hurry up, so you can spend less time in the sun."

When Grandma Mo and Grandpa Zeng heard this, their hearts were warm, and their eyes were narrowed into slits with a smile.

Hearing her voice, Han Che ran out with a look of surprise on purpose, "Ah, Xiang Jin, are you here too?"

"Yes, help you guys, it will be faster this way," Xiang Jin nodded and said.

"Okay, okay," Han Che said happily.

Then Xiang Jin said to Grandma Mo and the others, "Grandma Mo, Grandpa Zeng, my grandma asked me to tell you that she has cooked your lunch for you and told you to come to our house for lunch."

"Ah? Go to your house to eat?" Grandma Mo and Grandpa Zeng were both surprised, and Grandma Mo said, "Look at this matter, you came to help, but you still have to go to your house for dinner."

Xiang Jin said, "Everyone is not an outsider, so there is no need to be so polite. Anyway, our family is a craftsman, and my grandma also cooks the rice, and she is also responsible for cooking. One person cooks, and two people cook too. , Three people still cook, just add a few more people."

Grandma Mo sighed with a strange expression, "Oh, your grandma is Xiaoyi."

Xiang Jin smiled and said, "I think people of your generation are relatively careless."

Grandma Mo and Grandpa Zeng burst into laughter suddenly, which washed away their previous embarrassment a lot.

Then I heard Grandma Mo say heartily, "Okay, then I'll go to your house for lunch."

Then the two old men will go back with the corn cobs in the basket.

Yan Chen put his own pannier on the ground, and then went to pick up the pannier on his grandfather's back, "Grandpa, grandma, break it in the field, I'll carry it back to dry."

Han Che on the side saw it, and nodded sharply, "Yes, yes, let's carry it." After speaking, he went to pick up the basket of corn lumps on his grandmother's back.

Both Grandma Mo and Grandpa Zeng refused, saying no, they could recite it by themselves.

Grandma Mo said, "How old are you? You are still in your teens, not even adults. How can you carry such a heavy load and walk such a long distance?"

Both of them said they could do it, they had strength.

But Grandma Mo and Grandpa Zeng disagreed about height and height, Yan Chen was a little worried about his grandfather, he was afraid that his blood pressure would soar if he was overworked later.

Grandpa Zeng said, "I can carry a little less," then raised the object in his hand to him, "Besides, I still have to hit the pestle, and then I can still walk for a while and rest for a while, so, Don't worry, you won't be tired."

Yan Chen had no choice but to give up, and then looked at his grandmother. Grandma Mo also said that she would also pour out some corn cobs in the basket and carry them less.

With the unanimous assurance of the two old men, the young men started to break up again.

Afterwards, Xiang Jin and the others were in charge of breaking the corn, while Grandma Mo and Grandpa Zeng were in charge of breaking the corn at home.

Han Che said, "It would be great if these roads in the countryside were the same as those in the city. They are all big roads. Then we can directly use a dump truck to transport grain, so we don't have to work so hard. Back and forth."

Xiang Jin said, "Yes, there will be a day."

Han Che said, "How do you know that day will come?"

Xiang Jin raised his eyebrows, "Of course, society is moving forward, and everything will only develop in a positive direction. Which one do you think will develop in a backward direction?"

Han Che thought for a while, then nodded and said, "That's true!"

Xiang Jin said, "It is necessary!"

In her previous life, in the era she lived in, almost every village in the countryside had roads, and basically every household had a car, whether it was a car, a motorcycle, or even a tricycle.

Many families use tricycles to collect grain. Whenever the grain in the field is ripe, they will drive the tricycle to the side of the road in their field, and then dump it directly into the tricycle after a few rounds. After the food is collected, it is very convenient, easy and fast, and it is not hard work at all.

Grandma Mo and his family's land is less than three minutes to four minutes away, so it didn't take much time to break it up, and it was finished in more than eleven o'clock.

Xiang Jin originally wanted to help them cut the corn poles, but Grandma Mo and Grandpa Zeng refused, saying that they would come here first today, and they would chop the grain poles by themselves, and they would be able to pick any morning. Cut them down.

Xiang Jin didn't insist. After all, she really couldn't stand the heat. She was so hot right now. Not only was her clothes wet with sweat, but she also knew that her face was flushed without looking in the mirror.

So, she really wants to take a bath and wash her hair now.

Seeing that she was sweating profusely and her face was red, Yan Chen held down her hand that was picking up corn in the basket, "Okay, there's nothing else going on here, you can go back first."

Grandma Mo and Grandpa Zeng also urged her to go back quickly.

Xiang Jin looked at the basket that had only picked up half of the corn cobs, and said, "Shall I bring you a basket?"

"No, we still have us here, let's go back, maybe your grandma still needs you?" Yan Chen stared at her and insisted on refusing, making a random excuse.

Xiang Jin thought about it for a while, so she didn't insist anymore. There were so many people eating today, maybe her grandma was a little too busy by herself, so she said, "That's fine, then I'll bring you this backpack. If you go back, maybe you will only have this small half of the corn cobs left, so that you don't have to make another trip when the time comes."

Yan Chen was about to continue to refuse, but Han Che who was beside him quickly walked over, picked up the basket full of cornbumps and put it on Xiang Jin's back, "Yes, yes, go back quickly, I heard that you are good at cooking Very good, the food is delicious, I haven't tasted it yet, I just went to your house for dinner today, so I can try it."

Yan Chen's face darkened immediately, and he gave him a hard look, but Han Che deliberately pretended not to see it, and still looked at Xiang Jin expectantly.

Xiang Jin put the basket on her back, then smiled and narrowed her eyes, dare she be a foodie?

But she said, "It's hard to say that cooking skills are good, that is, they don't ask too much and don't dislike them, but today it depends on the situation. If my grandma does it well, then it will only be next time. Next time I will do it again." Please eat, okay?"

"Oh, okay, okay," Han Che nodded vigorously at her.

Not daring to delay any longer, Xiang Jin wanted to go back with the basket on her back, Yan Chen confessed, "Be careful on the road."

"okay!"

After Xiang Jin left, Han Che asked Yan Chen, "Hey, why were you staring at me then? Didn't you say that she cooks deliciously? I want to try her cooking too."

Yan Chen squinted at him again angrily, "He helped us with the work, and then we had to go to his house for dinner. After being tired all morning, you still asked him to cook for you himself, why did you say The exit? Where is the face?"

As soon as Han Che thought about it, he patted his head embarrassingly and felt a little embarrassed, "That's right, my idea was a bit wrong, but I have already said that, what can I do? I can't swallow it again." Let's go back?"

Yan Chen glanced at him angrily again, and said impatiently, "Come and pick up corn!"

Han Che knelt down to pick it up, but after picking it up for a while, he suddenly raised his head and looked at Yan Chen, "Oh, it's not Yan Chen, why do I think you are so casual and reasonable when you order me around?"

Yan Chen also raised his head, and just looked at him indifferently, "Who are you? Can it be the same? Do I still need to be polite to you?"

Han Che laughed immediately, very happily, "That's right, we grew up in a big courtyard, so you're welcome."

Yan Chen followed and said, "Besides, before you came to the country, I told you that you came here to do farm work, and you also agreed, and you also promised it swearingly, why, now Do you want to go back on your word?
If you go back on your word, you can go to the town tomorrow to drive back to the provincial capital. "

Han Che immediately gave him a hard look, and retorted, "How is it possible? It's not a lot of hard farm work, how could I go back on my word?
Besides, I'm your child, and I didn't suffer as much as you can, but I'm still squeamish?Then how can I have the nerve to be your brother and friend? "

Yan Chen nodded in agreement, "It's true, so brothers and friends, then you should pick up the corn quickly, get it back early, and let's rest early."
