Chapter 8

As soon as the sky became bright, every household in the village got busy.

Today is the first day of autumn harvest and the most important day of the year.

Seeing that there was no cloud in the sky, Qi Zheng breathed a sigh of relief, and prayed in his heart that it would never rain.

Everyone thinks so too.

Take advantage of the good weather to harvest the grain as soon as possible, otherwise once it rains, the grain in the field will be soaked by the rain and cannot be harvested.

And the harvested grain can't be dried in the sun. Once it gets wet, it means that this year's work will be in vain.

It's okay to be busy in vain, and more importantly, there is no food, and everyone will be hungry.

Not long after, there were many more villagers busy harvesting in the field.

Mostly adults, the children have not gotten up yet.

The busy people in the fields didn't speak, and just worked hard, just wanting to grab the harvest.

Unknowingly, the sky brightened, the sun also rose, and the temperature rose a lot in an instant.

Until the sun rose into the air, all the children from every household ran over to help.

Girls of the right age are busy cooking and boiling water at home, and when they are ready, they will send them to the adults in the field.

The younger children went to the fields to glean rice ears.

Don't look at the inconspicuous ears of rice in the field, but you can pick up a lot of grain if you really pick them up seriously.

The Qi family didn't have a girl of the right age to cook at home, so Yi Meng was driven back to cook, and at the same time, to see if Qi Manman was up.

The little girl cried yesterday afternoon because she didn't see the adults after waking up. This has become a heart disease for the whole family.

So rushing Yimeng back to cook and watch the children, no one felt bad, but urged Yimeng to go back early.

When Yi Meng came home, the first thing she did was to see if her daughter was awake.

Seeing that the little girl was still sleeping soundly, her clothes were half ripped off because of her dishonesty in sleeping, revealing her white belly.

Yi Meng's heart softened, she stepped forward and pulled the corner of the quilt to cover her stomach, then turned around and went out to cook.

Qi Manman was awakened by a burst of fragrance.

Sniffing, the long eyelashes moved, and opened after a while, revealing a pair of big eyes that were still a bit hazy.

Blinking and blinking, Qi Manman turned over and got up.

Sitting on the kang, he looked left and right, and then took a deep breath.

"Good time!"

Eyes lit up, she climbed down the edge of the kang, drooped the little cloth shoes her mother had prepared for her yesterday, and ran outside with a mess of lanugo.

"Mother! Mother!"

The sound of milk whimpering sounded, and Yi Meng, who was busy in the kitchen, hurried out without even putting down the spatula.

"Ouch, run slowly, run slowly."

Yi Meng saw her daughter running towards her with her short legs upside down, she was frightened and ran a few steps quickly, until she hugged the little guy in her arms, her heart was relieved.

"Mom, it smells so good! What are you doing?"

Qi Manman put his arms around his mother's neck, and kept smelling the rice fragrance in the air with his nose.

The autumn harvest is a time of hard work. Even if the food at home does not have so much oil, it is thicker than usual. Otherwise, the stomach will not be full and the work will be weak.

"You little greedy cat, mother is cooking porridge, you go back to the house and wait, mother will dress you later."

Yi Meng carried her daughter back to the house, put her on the kang, and hurried to the kitchen.

Vegetables are still cooking in the pot, so you can't leave it for too long, otherwise you will be blind if it gets mushy.

After frying all kinds of wild vegetables and eggplants in the pot a few times, Yi Meng added more than half of the pot of water to the pot, checked the fire again, and returned to the house after making sure there was no problem.

As soon as he entered the room, he saw Qi Manman struggling with his little clothes.

"Mom, this dress doesn't fit well."

As soon as he saw his own mother, Qi Manman immediately complained wronged.

One arm was already tucked into the sleeve, but the other arm couldn't find another sleeve anyway.

The clothes were twisted into twists and carried behind her back, looking at it was a mess.

Yi Meng suppressed her smile, stepped forward and gently helped the little guy put on the clothes, and at the same time taught her how to put them on.

Qi Manman's eyes lit up when he heard it, and he nodded repeatedly to show that he had learned it.

She combed the little guy's hair and tied two small knots, and then Yi Meng put on her shoes.

"Mom, I can wear this!"

Qi Manman stretched out his little claws, as if he wanted to wear it himself.

Yi Meng did not refuse, and handed a shoe to Qi Manman.

These shoes are also new.

The mille-layer sole of Nana, the upper is made of a piece of light gray coarse cloth.

Because she was in a hurry, she didn't have time to find someone to embroider, so she cut two pieces of a rabbit fur she kept at home, made two fluffy balls, and sewed them on the upper of the shoe.

Although the rabbit fur is not pure white, it is cute to look at.

Qi Manman took his right shoe and put it on his left foot. His hard-working and serious look was so cute that people wanted to kiss him.

Yimeng taught the little girl how to distinguish between left and right shoes, and Qi Manman started to work hard after learning it.

Finally, the two shoes with fluffy balls are finally worn.

"Mom, I'm ready!"

"Mother's Man Bao'er is really amazing!"

Yi Meng directly kissed her daughter's face.

Qi Manman giggled, and did not forget to smack his mother's face, and said in a childish voice: "Man Baoer's mother is so annoying!"

The two girls went out of the house talking and laughing.

Yimeng asked the child to wait outside, and she went into the kitchen to look at the food.

But Qi Manman followed into the kitchen on his short legs.

The aroma of rice porridge in the kitchen, mixed with the smell of stew, made Qi Manman swallow his saliva: "Mother, it smells so good!"

"Are you hungry? It will be fine later, and when it's done, mother will serve it for you."

Yi Meng smiled dotingly.

There are pancakes and steamed buns at home, but except for the hot ones in the pot, everything else is cold. She is not willing to let her precious daughter eat cold ones.

Qi Manman nodded again and again: "Yes, mother, Man Baoer is obedient, just wait obediently."

Afterwards, the little guy sat on the threshold of the kitchen, propped his chubby face on his two little hands and watched his mother busy with work.

But at this moment, a loud cry came from the room of the fifth child, Quanyin.

Yi Meng was taken aback, and Qi Manman was also taken aback.

But Qi Manman quickly realized: "Mother, it's Brother Ten!"

Yi Meng also came to his senses at this time, and hurriedly walked towards the fifth younger brother's room, telling him as he walked: "Man Baoer, don't move around here, don't touch the stove, mother, go and see the little brother. ten."

"Mom, I'm with you!"

Like a little follower, Qi Manman followed Yi Meng into the five-bedroom house.

Qi Julang was only four years old, just woke up, and saw that he was the only one in the empty room, and immediately cried out in fright.

When Yi Meng came in, she saw the little guy sitting on the kang crying terribly, it was both funny and distressing.

But Qi Manman, who followed in at this time, also saw it, and said milkingly: "Brother Ten, Diudiu, you're still crying!"
