Chapter 111
Hearing Zhiran cry twice, Xiu'er snatched the corn from her hand and said, "Miss, just go back to the room and rest for a while, I'll be here."

Seeing that Xiu'er was full of energy, Zhiran asked strangely, "Aren't you tired?"

"I'm not tired, how can I be tired! This is much easier than in previous years." Xiu'er's bright face was full of smiles.

All the children in the room nodded in agreement.

None of them have any land in their family. When the farming is busy on weekdays, their parents will go to other people's homes to do part-time labor. They will also take the opportunity to help some wealthy farmers' homes and earn a few pennies. But the work is much harder than this. up.

Zhiran had never experienced these hardships, so naturally she didn't understand them.

However, under Tang's nose, she didn't dare to blatantly dodge, knowing that she was competing with God for time, and driven by Xiu'er and the others, she was full of energy.

After peeling the corn, the last thing to do is to hang the peeled corn on the room to dry. The children couldn't do this well, so they waited for Dahai and the others to come back at night, and then let them hang it on the room.

It was getting dark until night, and Dahai and the others brought back a cart full of corn, which was not filled during the day, and at night, they ran several times in a row to pull all the corn into the house.

The more food there is, the smaller the house will be.

Before, they planned to put the food in a few empty rooms, but when they pulled it into the room, they realized that there was still a lot of food.

After Yidong came back from the town and the two of them settled Yan Qingfang's accounts, Zhiran said, "Should we build a warehouse? It doesn't look good if the grain is piled up like this?"

Yidong agreed and said 'yes', and said: "I just had this idea. The back of our house is close to the mountain, and it is a wasteland. After the busy farming is over, it will be developed as a warehouse. How many more can we do! The most important thing is It’s close to where we live, and we can keep an eye on it, so as not to steal something shallow.”

"Hey, that's good! Let's choose this place to build a warehouse!" Zhiran heard that she didn't even need to hire someone to keep the warehouse, so she immediately agreed to the matter.

But Yidong said with some concerns: "But it's too close to the mountain, I'm afraid some livestock will smell the smell of grain, and it would be bad if they come to make trouble."

Zhiran knew this was a thing, after all, the houses here were all fences, and it was really not safe.

"I know that there is a kind of cement that makes the house very strong, but I am not sure that I can make cement now. The warehouse is planned in this way first. If it is really not possible, we will think of other preventive measures. The warehouse must be built. .” She knows that cement is a mixture of lime powder and clay, but she doesn’t know what the exact ratio is, and she still needs to find time to research it.

The next day was still busy during the autumn harvest. During the day, Tang led the children to continue peeling the corn husks. At noon, Ying Ziniang cooked, and in the afternoon, she continued to peel the corn husks. Throw it all away.

Dong Ziniang said that this can feed cattle, and their family happened to have a cow, so they stayed to add some fodder to the cow.

Hearing from Dong Ziniang that the poles of corn can be used as firewood, Zhi Ran knew that Baomi is still a good guy!Everything is treasure, nothing is wasted.

It took the Tang family four days to finish the [-] mu of fertile land. When the sorghum arrived, Xiu'er and the others were very happy, so they picked up the sorghum and started eating it.

Zhiran had never eaten sorghum stalks before, so she surrounded them and asked, "Can this be eaten?"

Jin'er took a piece with a smile, wiped it clean, handed it to Zhiran, and said, "Miss, try it, it's very sweet."

Zhiran took a sip with doubt, and found that it was full of sweetness, no wonder the children liked it.

In rural areas, children rarely have snacks, and these sweets are like snacks to them.

But after chewing this thing for a few days, I lost interest, chewing was tiring, and my cheeks hurt.

After harvesting the fertile fields, they are ready to cut the rice. There is a lot of rice at home, but little girls like Xiuer and the others know how to cut rice no matter how young they are.

So Dahai called Yingying and the others to the field together.

Zhiran don't say she can't, even if she can, the Tang family won't let the three sisters go to the field, so when the paddy field is busy, the three sisters of the Tang family are busy with their own affairs, very leisurely.

Zhiran took the opportunity to fiddle with her cement, planning to build the first solid concrete house in Liujia Village.

There are many people in the village, but there are only three threshing machines in total.

During the autumn harvest season, people in the village leave early and return late, and Dahai and the others are no exception.After being so busy for seven or eight days, the rice was finally cut to the ground, so the rice was transported to the threshing ground.

The Tang family has an ox cart, which can transport rice quickly.

While they were carrying the rice, a group of Yingying and the others followed the cart to pick up rice.Each person has a small bag. Zhiran and Xiyu have done this job once.

There are chickens and pigs at home, Yingying and the others want to pick up more, so that they can feed Enen's chickens.

Walking on the road, the mountains are surrounded by the morning sun in the distance, against the golden threshing field piled up with rice, and against the busy smiling faces of the villagers.

Zhi Ran knew that today was the threshing day, so she came to the threshing floor to have a look.

When she arrived, Haihai and the others were still queuing up. Because they had a lot of millet and it was not from the village, the people in the village either jumped in line to get ahead, or said, "Oh, my family only has so little millet, less than half a cup of tea." It’s time to finish the kung fu, there are so many of you, you can’t finish it in a day, so you must be close to us first!”

Seeing that, Zhiran's smile quickly faded.

"Hey, Miss is here!" Hu Song was the first to see Zhi Ran's figure.

Seeing that her complexion was not good, he was afraid that she would blame his father, so he stepped forward a few steps and explained: "There are too many people in the village, we can't screw them."

Zhiran curled her lips and smiled, but didn't answer Hu Song's words.

Stepping forward a few steps to the side of Dahai, looking at the mountains of rice piled up behind him, his beautiful eyebrows were tightly knit together.

"Miss." Dahai rubbed his hands nervously, not daring to breathe out again.

This is the first time that Miss Zhiran entrusted him with important matters. In the past, Yidong was in charge of them. Now that Yidong has entered the town and became the big shopkeeper, it will be his turn. He originally wanted to Perform well, and these days I have put in all my energy, but I didn't know that I was stumbled by someone.

"It's okay, it's not your fault!" Seeing that they were all so nervous, Zhi Ran realized that she had put on a face invisibly.

Immediately, he calmed down with a smile and said, "I'm afraid it won't be our turn to harvest rice today, so we will keep two people guarding here, and we will take turns every two hours to ensure that everyone can rest well. We will come back tomorrow morning."
