Chapter 29
"Grandpa Niu, how can I bother you? We appreciate your kindness, but we brothers and sisters have been thinking about it at home for a few days, and finally decided to go to the village to ask some free laborers to help harvest the wheat. Grandpa Niu , Do you have a suitable candidate in your mind? We brothers and sisters would like to ask you to help us pass this test, and recommend some hard-working people to our brothers and sisters, and the wages are negotiable." Now their family has some spare money Well, Lin Wan'er didn't want her two elder brothers to work so hard to harvest rice in the fields, after all, no matter how capable they were, they were just a few kids, and their working ability was far inferior to that of adults.

This day looks sunny, and she doesn't know when the sky will change suddenly. She has to spend money to hire a few people to harvest the wheat in the field early, and dry it well while the sky is still sunny. After drying, put it in the warehouse.

Grandpa Niu held the ox rope in one hand, tilted his head and thought carefully about the qualified young and strong labor force in the village, and sure enough, he thought of a few, "The blacksmith's house at the head of the village is the only one with a small farm and sufficient labor force in the village. There are five sons, but the land is only six or seven acres. In the past, after their family harvested their own grain, they would help other people in the village to harvest. If you want to find them, you have to go to say hello as soon as possible. No matter how strong the labor force is in the future, they will feel powerless, and the speed will naturally be much slower than before. How about I ask you when I get home?"

"Then please trouble Grandpa Niu." Lin Wan'er thanked her sincerely.

"What's the trouble? If Grandpa Niu was ten years younger, it would not be easy to harvest three acres of land. It's just that the years are not forgiving. Even if I have the heart, I can't help you much."

In the past few years, he has felt that his body and bones are not as good as before. After working for a few more years, he will not be able to do it anymore. Let his sons plant the family's field, and he only needs to get some rations every year.People, it really doesn't work if you don't accept the old.

When they arrived at Daliushu at the entrance of the village, Wulang, Liulang, Xiaoqi and Lin Wan'er got out of the bullock cart. After taking down their things, they said goodbye to Grandpa Niu and hurried towards home. Steamed stuffed bun fills the stomach, but after all, it is not as good as rice, so I am not hungry.They have to go home quickly to cook, eat a hot meal, take a bath and sleep well, to wash away the fatigue of the whole body.

"Sister, the smell of meat is everywhere in the village. It smells so good." Xiaoqi wrinkled her nose and smelled it. "It's stewed big bone soup, and it smells like braised pork." The rich meat flavor is very greedy.

In normal times, the villagers live a life of simple tea and light food. Except for a few people with good living conditions who occasionally eat meat, more people like Lin Wan'er's family live frugally, eating Chinese cabbage with chopsticks You can eat a bowl of whole grain rice.

But today is different. The villagers go to the town to buy vegetables grown in their own fields and exchange them for money. Soon there will be busy farming. Think of ways to make the food more delicious and richer, so that the man in his family will be full of energy, and then he will be able to persist in doing heavy work in the field for several days.

Not only Xiao Qi had a sharp nose, but the three of them, Wulang Liulang and Lin Wan'er, could also smell the strong smell of meat floating in the village. Lin Wan'er touched Xiao Qi's slightly sweaty head with a smile, and said dotingly: " You little greedy cat, your nose is sharper than a dog, and you can smell everything you cook. Come on, our family cooks meat today, so I will make you full." Lin Wan'er weighed two catties of fine pork at the pork shop , go home to fry shredded pork or make braised pork, but she hasn't eaten pork for a long time, so I can take advantage of today to have a tooth festival.
