Chapter 67 67 Xiaomi Knows Nothing

With the ox cart, Jiang Hu was much more relaxed. The trip that originally took nearly three hours to go back and forth was shortened to two hours.

You don't need to get up so early, and you don't need to be so tired. Jiang Hu has a lot of energy during this time, and he can take care of more crops in the fields.

Although he had an ox cart, Jiang Hu didn't have two trips every three days, so he took his wife and children to the town. After all, the road was not close, and he didn't dare to leave anyone at home alone. He took so many children to the town. Not easy.

What's more, the town is like that. I have been there twice, and there is nothing new.

Originally, corn had a shorter growth cycle and earlier maturity than sorghum, but the sorghum seeds were sent by the imperial court and planted more than a month earlier.

So wait until the end of August, when the heat is at its peak, when the corn is ripe and the sorghum is about to be harvested.

Millet is seven months old, can already hold on to things, walk tremblingly, and speak more clearly than before.

The iron egg is not enough, but it is still no problem to shout simple words such as father and mother, or to climb up and down on the ground.

The little guy who thought he couldn't survive at the time is not only healthy and tender, but he even speaks earlier than other babies.

It's too hot today, but fortunately, the thatched hut is still shaded and ventilated. Millet is wearing the small cloth shoes her mother made for her, leaning against the wall and walking slowly to the kitchen.

Tiedan was wearing patched clothes, crawling on the ground happily, chasing chickens for a while, and catching insects for a while.

It's not that Erniang is biased. She wears unpatched clothes for Xiaomi, and old clothes with many patches for Tidan. It's really too expensive.

At most, when Xiaomi is on the bed, he will practice crawling; Tie Dan is different. Since his hands and feet are agile, he slips to the ground and crawls everywhere.

The new clothes that were originally made for their sister and brother, Xiaomi's are still brand new, and the iron ones are worn in a mess.

The main reason is that there are no extra people in the family, so they can take care of the children for them. Erni can only take care of them at best, and can't hold them in her arms.

After a long time, Tie Dan's clothes became tattered.

"Xiaomi, why are you here again? Didn't I let you play outside? The kitchen is hot."

Erniang came out of the kitchen, bent down and picked up Xiaomi, took a few steps and put her back under the eaves at the door of the bedroom.

A lot of corn has been piled up under the eaves, Erni is peeling the corn kernels, and Tie Dan is sitting by the side to play.

Tie Dan is a boy who is still wearing open-crotch pants, and Xiaomi is wearing a small skirt.

Xiaomi finally walked to the door of the kitchen, and was carried back to his original position by his mother in a few steps, and suddenly shrugged his shoulders weakly.

"Mother, Xiaomi is watching you cook."

Xiaomi was placed beside Erni, Erniang also took a small stool and started peeling the corn: "It's very hot to cook, Xiaomi is playing here."

In addition to the eaves, there is also corn in the yard. Although there is no bluestone slab and no drying field, Jiang Hu bought a waterproof tarpaulin in advance, and spread it on the ground to dry the grain.

The weather has been good recently, and the crops must be recovered as soon as possible, preferably the ones that have been dried and can be put into the warehouse directly.

Millet pouted, imitating the appearance of her mother and second sister, and also took a corn, one by one with her fingers, and digging down.

The corn under the eaves has been taken back yesterday and has been drying for a day. The corn under the eaves was received last night, and it is much easier to peel than the ones just taken back.

In the morning, Erniang also took the children to work in the field together. She broke it off specially, and Jiang Hu carried it home.

Mainly when it was almost noon, the sun was hot, so I came back with three children and made lunch by the way.

After a while, Jiang Hu and Da Wa came back from the field with two baskets, one big and one small, and as soon as they walked into the yard, Jiang Hu's basket slanted, and with a clattering sound, the corn cobs fell to the ground.

The big baby is not as strong as his father's waist, so he can only wait for Jiang Hu to pour the corn to help him.

Jiang Hu is very strong, and the small carrying basket of the big baby is only forty or fifty, and he can easily lift it with one hand.

"Second Mother, the corns in our vegetable garden are so big, two or three times bigger than those in the field."

Jiang Hu looked at the half circle of corn around the vegetable garden, which he found from the sorghum field before, and then transplanted it back to the vegetable garden.

Every time I water the vegetables, I also pour a little on the corn, and I always know that the corn grows better than the ground.

But he didn't expect, this is good, it's actually so much better!
The corn in the field is only the size of a palm, and the output of one mu of land is only five or six hundred catties, which is still the blessing of millet.

This year's corn is full of grains. Compared with the past, there will always be a lot of sparse corn.
But even so, it is incomparable to the vegetable garden. Only one corn is as long as the two in the field combined, and it is thicker, bulging, and big visible grains!
Of course Xiaomi knows what's going on, this is an excellent variety she specializes in!
"Daddy, eat!" Millet threw down the corn in his hand and stood up while leaning on the wall next to him.

As for big corn or something, she doesn't know, she doesn't know anything!
She's still a baby girl, she only knows how to play and eat, how does she know what's in the ground!
Jiang Hu's attention was instantly attracted back, and then he wiped the sweat on his face and walked towards Xiaomi: "Okay, eat, eat, Xiaomi is hungry, right?"

Xiaomi hurriedly pointed to the iron egg who was crawling around in the corn pile with his butt pouted: "Xiaomi is not hungry, iron egg is hungry."

Jiang Hu laughed directly: "Okay, it's Tie Dan who is hungry, so let's eat too."

Erniang clapped her hands and told Erni to stop busy and eat first.

"The corn in the vegetable garden can still grow, Brother Hu, let's keep the corn for planting, and try to plant half of it next year."

You can't use that kind of corn all the time. After all, sometimes the seeds look good, but they grow out differently. What if this corn is the same?
Jiang Hu nodded: "Okay, if next year's corn is as big and good, we can grow all of them in the future."

The big baby brought a bowl of water: "Dad."

He had already drank a big bowl, which was poured for his father.

The water in the bowl is transparent yellow, and there are a few small yellow chrysanthemums, which are wild chrysanthemums on the hillside behind the house, many.

Chrysanthemum tea has a slightly bitter taste, but has a faint fragrance, which is very comfortable to drink.

Erniang also steamed the chrysanthemums for a while and then dried them. Such chrysanthemums did not change color after a long time.

Jiang Hu put the millet and iron eggs back on the small chair where they were eating, took the bowl and dried it, feeling a lot more comfortable.

"Second Mother, is there any chrysanthemum today?"

"Yes, I boiled it with cold water."
