Chapter 57 57 ran away
20 days passed quickly.It's already April and it's time to start spring planting.However, many aspiring young people have signed up to join the team.

Li Wenquan is a person with a very high emotional intelligence.Let the big guys help the family plant the land and then leave.

Chen Miao looked at the sullen Chen Jiang.

"Mother must have a reason for not letting you go."

"Third sister, I really want to go."

Chen Miao didn't know what to say, too much persuasion would not do, after all, she was just a little daughter-in-law in the countryside, so she could only watch her leave listlessly.

After feeding the two sons, they put them away and drove the donkey cart to the field.We will start planting corn today.

"Comrade Chen."

"Comrade Li?"

"I help with farming."

"No need, this year there are only three acres of land, and I will grow corn."

"I can help you quickly. Don't refuse, we are all revolutionary comrades, and we should help each other."

Chen Miao thought about it but did not refuse.

Every family in the field is farming.Those who live better have little donkeys, while those whose lives are not good are completely artificial.

The two of them worked pretty fast.Chen Miao led the sacrifice, and Li Wenquan supported Huozi. Two hours later, Li Wenquan dug the ground and planted Chen Miao.

It was felt that the two children in the space woke up.Chen Miao and Li Wenquan spoke, and hurried home.

After feeding the two children, they went back to the field with their baskets on their backs.

Both of them did the next work very quickly.It was almost noon when the two children woke up again. "Comrade Li, I brought pancakes and pickles. You can make do with your fill. I'm going back."

"Comrade Chen, you're busy, you're fine."

Chen Miao was full at home and went to the field without rest.

From a distance, Li Wenquan could be seen pulling the curtain to cover the soil.There are still many furrows that have not been planted yet.

In this way until it got dark, there was still an acre of land left.

Chen Miao felt really tired this day.But if she estimated that she would not be able to plant an acre of land, after all, she ran back five times a day to feed the children.No matter how it is planted tomorrow, the rest of the work is to plow the land on the mountain.Soybeans should be planted in late April and early May.

Arrived early the next day.Li Wenquan was already waiting here.The two didn't communicate much.Chen Miao ran back as soon as the child woke up.The planting was finished very early today, and there was no roller last year. Li Wenquan asked Chen Miao to go back, and he borrowed a roller from Shen Muchun's house to help pull it.

"Comrade Li, I'm going home. I'm going home for dinner tonight. Thank you so much for your help."

Li Wenquan did not refuse either.Chen Miao did not go home directly, but found Chen Jiang and asked him to have dinner at home in the evening.

After I got home, I started cooking after feeding the children. This time, I made dumplings directly, stuffed with meat.

I really don't want to owe favors.Just take out good things to entertain others.

Everyone in the field was watching Li Wenquan work, but they really didn't expect him to be capable.

Knowing that they are tired, they can also eat.More than 200 dumplings were made.Chen Jiang came over and saw that the third sister had already prepared the meal.

"Comrade Li, help me. I have finished planting the three acres of land. How much land do I have at home? I will follow along tomorrow."

"Third Sister, there aren't many left. We can finish planting in one day tomorrow."

Chen Miao really wouldn't have gone if the family hadn't been separated.Now there are only two elderly people and three children who have worked for themselves, so of course they want to help.

After Chen Jiang washed up, he waited for Li Wenquan, and he came only after it was dark.With Chen Jiang accompanying her to eat, she was alone in the room.

Early the next morning, Chen Miao drove to the field.With the addition of a little donkey, the speed is of course much faster.

Chen Miao would still go back to feed the child.At three o'clock in the afternoon, the Chen family's corn was planted.

There is no need to worry about planting the remaining crops.

A few days later, Chen Miao was planting vegetables and heard a knock on the door.

"Third sister. Was my fourth brother at your house last night?" Chen Tong asked anxiously.

Chen Miao shook her head, "No, when did you see your fourth brother?"

"I had dinner at home yesterday morning. I didn't come back at noon and I didn't come back at night."

Chen Miao sighed.Yesterday, Li Wenquan and the others took people away.It is estimated that they should be followed together.

"What did Mom and Dad say?"

"They didn't say anything. But Mother is in a bad mood."

Chen Miao thinks that Chen Jiang left with Li Wenquan.

I am really worried. The 14-year-old boy went out to participate in dangerous things, which really made the family anxious.I can understand his thoughts, but the family members are worried.

At noon, Chen Miao went back to her mother's house with a cage on her shoulders. Inside were the steamed buns, pumpkin and noodles that were steamed at noon today. The yellow and orange ones looked pretty good.

Seeing that Chen Jiang was still not at home, he must have run away with Li Wenquan.

Chen's mother was in a bad mood and didn't say anything. Chen Miao didn't know how to persuade her, so she put down the buns and went home.

In the afternoon, I went up the mountain with a pickaxe.There must be a lot of weeds.After plowing the ground, it is time to make sweet potato ridges.

When we arrived at the first piece of land, we saw that the ground had been dug up. Without stopping, we walked up the mountain again. The sweet potato ridges in this piece of land had already been laid.

This should be done with Chen Jiang's help.My heart is hot, this silly boy didn't bring a penny with him.

It was still early, and Chen Miao continued to go up the mountain. Last year, because of pregnancy, she did not go up the mountain after autumn. She went around and picked up some pine cones and went home.

Soybeans are planted at the end of the month.Finished half a day in the morning.After lunch, go to the village chief's house. "Auntie, I raised sweet potato seedlings this year, and they can be pulled out. Shall I bring them to Auntie tomorrow morning?"

"You don't need to give me the ones from Xiaofeng's house. Just those sweet potato seedlings."

"Fifth Aunt, I have raised a lot this year, so I can't do it if I don't pay it back."

"Okay, I'll go and ask the three of them when they will plant sweet potatoes." Everyone knew that the first crop of sweet potato seedlings would be good, and Shen Wufu's daughter-in-law was quite satisfied with Chen Miao's doing so.

"Fifth Aunt, I'm going back."

In the afternoon, I tidy up the vegetable garden in the yard. I don’t grow vegetables in the field this year, and there is still a lot of space. Even the vegetables she left can be eaten for two years without any problems.

Shen Wufu's daughter-in-law came in and saw how neatly the vegetable garden was being tidied up, she sighed in her heart that this girl Chen Miao was still so capable.

"I'll just come and pick it up tomorrow morning. You still have to take care of two children."

"Fifth Aunt, they are still young, they are fine, I will pull them out in the morning and send them to you."

"Chen Miao, have you made miso?"

"Yeah, it should be sour soon, I'll copy a bowl for you, Fifth Aunt."

Shen Wufu's daughter-in-law felt quite embarrassed. "No, no, I didn't make it this year, soy beans are really not good."

Chen Miao took Shen Wufu's daughter-in-law's hand, "Aunt Wu, wait a minute, I'll make some soybeans for you. Isn't it too late to make miso?"

"No, no, I don't have a sauce introduction, so I won't do it this year."

"Then fifth aunt, I'll make some sauce for you. I can't finish it myself. I just want to pickle red pickles."

"Chen Miao, I really don't want it, it's hard enough for you to live on your own."
