The daily life of a farm girl raising a family

Chapter 1 Time Travel and Rebirth
  In the golden autumn of September, the rice in the fields is golden. The faces of the hard-working people are filled with joy of harvest.

Young and old men are sweating in the fields, with piles of rice behind them, indicating a good harvest this year.

In the rice fields, a girl wearing indigo blue and lightly patched linen shirt followed the adults step by step, holding a small basket in her hand. Gleaning grains carefully, her fair little face turned slightly red under the scorching sun.

"Xiao Jiu, if you are tired, go to the field ridge and rest for a while."

The girl with two braids raised her head slightly and replied in a sweet voice: "Mom, I'm not tired."

The little girl's bright eyes were shining with starlight as she looked at the ears of rice blowing in the wind in the distance.
  People in the village are busy harvesting rice fields, and from a distance you can hear adults scolding children who are jumping around and causing trouble.

One year ago, Zhao Yun was reborn into this world.

This is the Dali Dynasty that does not belong to any dynasty in the previous life. She is located in Shatian Village, a village in Pingyang County.

This family also has the surname Zhao. She is the youngest daughter of the third son of the old Zhao family - Zhao Yunxi.

At first she couldn't believe it. After falling into the river, she thought she had disappeared.

When you open your eyes, you will see ancient buildings. She thought she was washed away by the river to a relatively backward village, and she didn't realize at all that she had traveled through time. Until the next day, when she heard her family calling her, Zhao Yun thought it was a dream.

As time went by, she gradually realized that all of this was true, and the stories in the novel really happened to her.

The sparrows on the tree chirp from time to time to call their friends, staring eagerly at the ripe rice in the field.

Boss Zhao wiped the sweat from his face and neck with a sweat towel.

He said to the thin and agile old Zhao: "Dad, you see the sun is getting higher, and there are only two acres of land left. Let's go back for lunch first! We will come out to cut the rest later."

Lao Zhao raised his head and looked at the sun, then shouted towards the field: "Okay, take it away! Go back to eat first."

After hearing Aweng's words, several boys in the family immediately ran away.

The field was filled with the laughter of several children playing.

Seeing her little niece being dragged away by her daughter, He couldn't help but laugh.

"Sister-in-law, I think Xiaojiu is much more lively than before."

Yang looked at her daughter who was playing with Wuyue in front. The two little girls were picking small wild flowers on the roadside and wearing them on their heads as they walked. Seeing this, the smile on Yang's face became even brighter.

"Thanks to the child in May who comes to talk and play with her every day. This child has been weak since he was a child. He doesn't like to go out much. After a serious illness last year, he didn't even go out. He lay in bed and stared out the window every day. I really I am afraid that the child will not survive, so I pray to God and worship Buddha every day."

"It's all over. Look at her body and bones now. She's not as skinny as she was when she was a child. Don't worry, you and your eldest brother, this child is blessed."

As the family walked out of their own fields, there were more people around. Many people were still harvesting rice, and some were sitting in the shade of the trees eating lunch.

"Why do you think this Zhao Laosan is so proud? He has been studying for so many years and is not just a child. The children in my family have not passed the county examination yet. I thought his family was very promising, but in the end he is just working in the field like us."

The country people spoke loudly, and Zhao Yunxi heard the voices behind him. I looked up and saw that my grandfather didn't look very good, so he pulled the third sister's hand.

Zhao Yuntong looked at Xiao Jiu in confusion, while Zhao Yunxi winked in the direction of his grandfather.

Zhao Yuntong understood and stepped forward to pull Zhao Guangming's sleeve.

"Aweng, don't worry. My brothers will definitely be admitted as scholars and become high officials to honor their ancestors."

Zhao Youliang also said with a look of approval: "Dad, Dalang will end next year. My husband also said that there should be no problem in Dalang County Examination. You don't need to mind what others say."

Zhao Guangming nodded after hearing this. The courtyard of the third bedroom of the Zhao family is a courtyard with one entrance. Zhao Guangming and the Zhou family live in front of the main house.

In the west room of the main house lived Zhao Youli and his wife, Zhao Yunshu, Zhao Yunxuan, and Zhao Yunhe.

Living in the east wing are the eldest son Zhao Youliang and his wife, and the family of five Zhao Yunxi, Zhao Yunzheng and Zhao Yunqin.

The west wing houses Zhao Youcai and his wife, Zhao Yuntong, Zhao Yunsong, and Zhao Yunbai.

When the Zhao family walked into the courtyard, Mrs. Wu happened to set out the tables and chairs.

Seeing her father-in-law walking in, Mrs. Wu immediately smiled on her face.

"Dad, you are back. You can start eating right away, and I will get you water to wash your hands."

After the meal, the family rarely sat leisurely in the yard to rest. I have been busy collecting goods during this period, and it has been a long time since I sat down and chatted quietly.

Zhao Yunxi, wearing two braids, squatted under a tree and practiced new words.

"Brother, you will take the county exam next year. How are you preparing for it?"

After hearing Yaomei's words, Zhao Yunzheng looked away from the book.

Seeing the elders in his family looking at him, Zhao Yunzheng said confidently: "Don't worry! Next year I will definitely win the county examination in one fell swoop."

"Xiaojiu, Master said that the elder brother's county has tried it, and you can go to the government to try it."

After hearing what his second grandson said, Old Zhaotou closed his eyes to rest. Suddenly he opened his wrinkled eyes and looked at the eldest grandson beside him in surprise.

Seeing everyone looking at him, Zhao Yunzheng touched his head in embarrassment.

"That's what Master said. It's just that I can't afford to go to the government to take the exam, so I'm still a little unsure."

When Wu heard this, she was shocked and said: "Dalang, you are right to do this. Don't waste money on things you are not sure about. After all, your family is not well off."

Everyone was stunned when they heard Wu's words. The old man's face, which was originally filled with joy, suddenly turned gloomy.

Seeing the displeased look in his father's eyes, Zhao Laosan yelled at Mrs. Wu: "When the gentlemen are discussing things, there is no place for a woman like you to interrupt. Go away and start talking about things that Si Liu doesn't understand."

Seeing her father-in-law's sullen face, Wu did not dare to speak again. I complained in my heart that I was already having a hard time supporting a few people to study.

Isn't it a waste of money to bet on things that are uncertain now? The most important thing is that her son has not yet gone to the county academy to study because of his age.

In the end, Old Zhaotou made the decision directly. He said as long as it passed, then go.

After the rest, the family got up and went to the fields to collect the remaining rice. Zhao Youliang, who was pushing the trolley, felt very satisfied when he saw the innocent appearance of his little girl and niece.

After the Zhao family worked energetically in the fields for an hour, this year's autumn harvest finally came to an end.

Looking at the rice in the field, Lao Zhaotou ordered the three brothers to tie up the rice and bring it home.

Old Zhaotou, carrying a sickle, walked home with a few juniors chatting and laughing.

As soon as they walked out of their fields, several people heard a "thud" behind them, followed by a painful scream and exclamation.
