Chapter 181 The Wheat Is Ripe
Shen Yingxue's high marriage indeed caused a sensation in Gaijiatun. After Shen Dafu finished the banquet at home, Shen Yingxue followed Zhao Dahai back to the county. It is said that she will live in her mother-in-law's house first, and live in her own when they share their new house. .

Shen Yunfeng, the eldest daughter of the Shen family who was married to the county, was busy as an introducer this time. When the couple came back to get married, she also went back to her mother's house for a week, which showed that she valued Zhao Dahai.

But she came back alone, her family Xue Jialong did not follow, but it caused a lot of gossip in the village. The second aunt all prevaricated on the grounds that the child in the family was young and she had to stay at home to look after the child.

When Shen Yingxue and Zhao Dahai were about to go back to the county the next day after having a banquet, Shen Yunfeng followed in a hurry.

Several members of Shen's second family sent the three of them to the entrance of the village that day and did not return home until they were no longer in sight. The way they reluctantly said goodbye was comparable to their own daughter and son-in-law leaving home.

These things made the villagers of Gaijiatun talk about it for a long time.It was rumored that Shen Dafu's son-in-law must be more capable than Shen's second son-in-law, or else the eldest daughter of the Shen family couldn't be so flattering.

Shen Yunfang began to gossip with everyone for a few days. After all, in such a small mountain village, there are not many things about the east and west. The topic of her "recruitment" has been talked about by others for half a year. Finally, a bird flew out of the mountain nest. Jin Fenghuang replaced the topic of her own family. Of course she was happy, and she could chat with others with a smile.But later she stopped participating. After all, she was also a serious victim of rumors, so it's better to keep some morals.Another main reason is that she has no time to gossip with people, because the wheat on the mountain is ripe.

In order to grab the time for the next few days, Shen Yunfang went to find Uncle Shen to ask for leave, and lied that she had a serious pregnancy reaction, and she had to rest at home for the next few days.

Uncle Shen disapproved of his niece being so squeamish. There were many pregnant people in the village, and he didn't see who was just three months old and who was uncomfortable. Who didn't do it until she was about to give birth, and some even directly and gave birth to the child in the field.

Although Shen Yunfang knew that an uncle like her would definitely look down on her, but she had no choice. If the several acres of wheat on the mountain could not be harvested within two days, it would be the result of her labor being banned.Comparing the two sides, let Uncle Shen be angry for a while.

On this day in July, Shen Yunfang got up early in the morning. After finishing her family affairs, she went out through the back door and climbed all the way up the mountain.

The wheat on the hillside was ripe and looked golden. The breeze blew gently, and waves of wheat rolled from far to near. Shen Yunfang looked at the pieces of wheat in front of him, and couldn't suppress the joy in his heart.

She walked into the wheat field, grabbed a handful of ears of wheat, and immediately felt that her hard work was not in vain, that her old manure and water were not in vain, and every grain of wheat in her hand was swollen, as if it was about to burst .

After rejoicing for a while, Shen Yunfang stood in the wheat field and took a deep breath.

Come on, the [-]-mile long march is just short of the last step, open the sickle.

She bent down, held the wheat stalks with her left hand, and held the sickle tightly with her right hand. When the edge of the knife sank to the root of the wheat, she heard a sound of "shua", and cut the wheat at the same root.

Shen Yunfang directly threw the wheat in her hand into the space, and then grabbed another handful.

Slowly the sun rose to the top of her head, and the sweat on her forehead flowed down her neck like she didn't want money. After several hours of dry work, she gradually felt that the sickle in her hand was heavy, and her legs seemed to be filled with lead. Yes, the bent waist is also stiff.

Thinking of her current body, she felt that it was better for her not to work so hard, so she straightened up, picked up the straw hat on her head and fanned it, what a bad weather, it was so hot.Feeling that sweat was streaming down her neck again, it was itchy, and she quickly wiped the sweat with the towel hanging around her neck.After working all morning, Maimang left streaks of blood on her little hands. Let the sweat be so pickled and burnt, the taste is not to be mentioned.

She walked to the edge of the forest, found a shaded place, sat down, took out a bottle of boiled water from the space, and poured it with her head raised.In the end, I still felt the heat from the inside out, so I took out a plate of iced watermelon from the space, picked up a piece and was about to eat it, but then remembered that there was still a small one in my belly, so I couldn’t ignore it just because I was happy for a while. she is gone.So I could only put a plate of iced watermelon back into the space, took out a large watermelon at room temperature, and took out a knife, cut it into several pieces with a few strokes, and she picked up a piece and started to chew.

Sweet and watery big watermelon, one bite will quench your thirst and cool off the heat.

After eating two pieces, Shen Yunfang didn't dare to eat any more, and put away the rest.Pregnant women can eat watermelon, but not in excess.

After resting for a while, Shen Yunfang stood up and started a new wave of labor.

With her current physical strength, she can work very quickly. In this way, she worked for three days without black or white before harvesting the wheat planted on the hillside.

Looking back at the stubble all over the ground, I am quite relieved.At the same time, the five characters 'labor is the most glorious' popped up in her mind.

Labor is hard work, but without labor, it is impossible to have fat white steamed buns on the dinner table.

Later, when she went up the mountain, she took advantage of the sun when it was at its strongest, and took out the wheat in the space to expose it to the sun, and she began to pick ears of wheat. It was the result of her hard work for half a year, and she felt sorry for wasting even a little bit.

Taking advantage of the gap between drying the wheat, she tidied up the stubble in the field, and planted cabbage, radish and mustard greens. Before the frost, she could still harvest autumn vegetables.

Within two days, the vegetables in the field were all grown, and the wheat stalks and wheat grains became brittle, and the wheat grains fell from the straws when they were exerted.Shen Yunfang saw that it was almost done, so she spread plastic sheeting on the hillside and started manual threshing.

At this time, wheat is threshed by oxen pulling stone rollers or beating with flails, commonly known as "threshing field".

Shen Yunfang couldn't get cattle, so she had to let the sheep at home pull the stone roller back and forth to crush them. If one sheep couldn't be pulled, she tied two more. Anyway, there were too many sheep at home, and she was tired of pulling for a few hours. Change a few.Finally, such a difficult task has been completed.

After repeated rolling, most of the wheat grains fell off from the straws. Shen Yunfang bundled up the cleaned straws and put them in the space. These things will still be useful in the future. They can be used for raising earthworms or making fungus sticks superior.

Then she began to manually thresh the grains with the flail, beating repeatedly, so that the wheat grains that were still hanging on the straw fell off obediently.

Shen Yunfang spread all the wheat grains on a plastic sheet and put them in the sun for another two days before using a shovel to put all the grains into sacks one by one, and then packed them into sacks one by one. In the space, if there is an opportunity in the future, just grind these wheat grains into white flour.

Although there is no specific weighing number, it is estimated that the wheat grain harvested this year is about [-] catties.Enough for her to eat steamed buns for several years.

That afternoon, Shen Yunfang brought dozens of catties of wheat grains to the production team, and while everyone was off to work, she ground the wheat grains into flour, and steamed a pot of steamed buns for herself at night, Bai Bai Xuanxuan's, Take a bite of the fragrance of wheat in your mouth, it seems that you have never eaten such delicious steamed buns.
