A good time for farming through the ages

Chapter 163 [163] Autumn harvest and autumn sowing (3000)

Before she could make any further moves, an old lady with small feet who was not easy to mess with at first glance chased after her, panting at the top of her voice, went up and hit the aunt's leg with a cane.

"I said I can't go to see it, so I can't go to see it. How much does it cost to go to the hospital? Why are you so disobedient? With that money, we can have another one. Anyway, it's a little girl's movie. You are so tight to her. What's the use, sooner or later they will all belong to someone else's family? Hurry up and put the child down!"

The aunt was afraid that the old lady would beat the child, so she quickly handed the child to the mother, and then cried and shouted at the old lady.

"Mom, can you be reasonable? You are a woman yourself, how can you despise Xiaowan? She is the blood of your Song family. Your son is not at home, so you bully our mother like this? You don't treat the child? , If you don’t pay me, I’ll treat it, and I’ll ask someone to borrow money to treat it? You’re trying to force us to death!”

The woman yelled at the old lady crazily. The old lady was unreasonable at first glance, staggered and sat down on the ground, and began to cry loudly.

"My dear mother, everyone, come and take a look, this unfilial daughter-in-law, she dares to judge me, a heartless bastard!"

"Damn old woman, if you don't let me see a doctor today, I will fight you!"

Seeing that the aunt was about to rush towards the old lady, the sisters-in-law saw that something was wrong, and quickly put the little girl on the cart. Zhuo Lin took this opportunity and ran over quickly, seeing that the little girl had a high fever and fell into a coma. She didn't bother to think too much, and directly wrapped one vine around the little girl, and the other vine, which originally wanted to wrap around herself, turned out to be wrapped around the old woman by itself.

As a result, she felt that the sickness was sucking in one side and released on the other. She watched this scene dumbfounded, oh my god, this vine has become a spirit, and it will find a parasite by itself, but this old woman is too bad-hearted, and she deserves it Treat her like this.

The people on both sides started a quarrel, which soon alarmed the people in the village. Everyone rushed over to fight and persuade the fight. The old lady and the aunt had already torn their eyes red. For the sake of their daughter, they even risked their reputation. She is a good mother and truly admirable.

This farce lasted for more than half an hour. Even though the sickness had been withdrawn, the child was still very weak, his consciousness was not clear enough, and his body was limp. It looked pitiful, and the old lady had already passed out before she fainted. Others dragged her out of Zhuo's house, and after returning home, she would definitely be sick for a few days, it was inevitable.

When Aunt Song came to hug her daughter and was about to go to the hospital, she was surprised to find out: "Sister-in-law, feel it quickly, she doesn't seem to be hot anymore."

A Niang and Auntie touched each other together and looked at each other in surprise: "It's really not hot anymore, so shall we go to the hospital?"

Aunt Song hesitated for a moment, then gritted her teeth and said, "Go, if you want to see it, you can take care of the disease at once. Two sisters-in-law, can I borrow your money and sell tofu for you?"

"Okay, whatever happens, since you're going to the hospital, let's go!"

As a result, as soon as the bullock cart left the door, some villagers ran over and shouted at Aunt Song.

"It's not good, Hong Xing's family, you go home and have a look, your mother-in-law has passed out, and your father-in-law is calling you back,"

Aunt Song sneered, "Don't think that I don't know what kind of trick they are showing off. They just want to trick me back and prevent me from treating my daughter. You go back and tell them that you don't have time and want to find someone to serve you. Find her second and third daughter-in-law. Anyway, my eldest daughter-in-law doesn't care, she wants my daughter's life today, even if she dies tomorrow, I won't go back and take a look. Also, please inform Song Hongxing, I won't live with him anymore, let's go on , both of our mothers will die at the hands of that old godly woman, we will return to our parents' house after we leave the hospital today, we will never come back to this house!"

Aunt Song got into the bullock cart. The sister-in-law and sister-in-law looked at each other and silently gave her a thumbs up: "Big sister, well said!"

Aunt Song's eyes were red: "This is the baby that was born after I almost had dystocia. They don't care about it, but I care about it. Let's go, sister-in-law, let's go to the hospital!"

"Linlin hurry home, mother will come back at dawn, you don't need to worry about tofu, we will make it when you come back,"

After explaining this, A Niang and the others left, and Zhuo Lin watched them leave with a lot of emotion, being a mother is tough, at critical moments, only being a mother is reliable, as for the old lady of the Song family, hehe, If you are in good health, you can survive with some homemade prescriptions. If you are not in good health, you may have to go to the hospital. Who will spend the most money at that time?
But this old lady is in good health. If she gets pneumonia this time, she might say that her granddaughter beat her. Although she has never met her grandma, she has read too many best novels, so she still feels that the Zhuo family without grandparents is really too harmonious.

I thought that A Niang and the others would go home at dawn, but they didn't expect to come back in the middle of the night.

"Xiao Wan is fine. She prescribed some medicine and sent it to her grandmother's house. Go to bed quickly. You have to go to school tomorrow!"

A Niang lay down and squinted for a while, then hurriedly got up to grind the beans. It was really hard work, and the brothers were also very considerate of adults. No one was lazy. At four o'clock in the morning, the busy day began. She and Zhuo Jian were the only ones who compared Happiness, I fell asleep at almost five o'clock, got up and washed, drank a bowl of soy milk, took the prepared steamed buns with eggs, carried my schoolbag, and set foot on the way to school with my brothers.

It would be convenient for Zhuo Jian to send them off in the morning or evening, and usually go out with his aunt, send them to the town, and pick them up in a bullock cart after noon.

If there are not many people on the bullock cart (to pull people to do business, the cart will never go to or return with an empty cart), you can go around to the school to pick up Zhuo Lin and the others. If there are too many people, they have to walk back by themselves. It's time to go home, anyway, children, they don't bring anything, and they can run home after talking and laughing.

No, when they were sitting in the yard in the evening eating the steamed buns baked by Auntie, dipped in garlic juice, the auntie suddenly thought of something and asked.

"The old lady of the Song family was also sent to the hospital this morning?"

A Niang nodded, "I also heard from the people in the village. I didn't pretend to be co-authored last night. They said that her daughter-in-law made her faint, but the hospital said pneumonia, and the old couple heard about it. , let’s just say that the granddaughter of the family overcame them,”

At this time, I don't understand contagion, and I'm used to saying these superstitious words.

"What? Didn't the other two daughters-in-law take care of them? Did the old man take care of them?"

"Those two daughters-in-law went back to their parents' house to hide from work every three days. One relied on pregnancy and the other relied on raising a one-year-old son. The eldest daughter-in-law was always honest and reliable. Now this old lady has offended her. If the old man doesn't take care of her, who will take care of her?" ? Self-inflicted, can not blame others!"

"The doctor has said that most pneumonia is not contagious. Her pneumonia has nothing to do with other children. After all, what the child has is not pneumonia, but a slight fever and cough. How can it be said that it is the child's gram? I can tell. Now, when she really hates someone, no matter what she does, she can't change anything, thanks to Sister-in-Law Song's cleverness, she went back to her mother's house directly, this old couple did it, let them bear it themselves!"

Aunt Song's natal family returned the one yuan they had advanced for medicine that night, and it was given by Aunt Song's brother, which is enough to show that her natal family is quite reliable and doesn't mean to ignore it. It's very unlikely that she can hold onto her. If Aunt Song is determined to divorce, no one will force her to come, unless she takes this opportunity to separate the family.

It's sad to say that in this era, there are not many people who separate after marriage. Those who can live apart are better off than those who don't. Most of those who don't have a small quarrel every three days, and a big quarrel every five days. The relationship is also unsatisfactory. Today I say this is partial to that, and tomorrow I will talk about who earned how much money outside and didn't take it home to hand over to work. Not only are there many things, but they are also troublesome.

Encountering such a family, it is probably the Baozi father and Baozi mother who are often seen in farming literature. If we really want to stand up, unless we divide the family, it is a pity that it is not easy to divide the family.Divide up and down, fight up and down, and there are not a few people who become enemies.

In a blink of an eye, I received it in the autumn. Compared with the exhausting situation last year, after having cattle this year, not only the summer harvest is much easier, but the autumn harvest is now coming. Of course, anyone who came to help was rejected by the sister-in-law. There is a lot of land, and there is only one cow, so they can't be exhausted, so they agreed in advance that they would not borrow it, and naturally they didn't need them to come to help, because the family's eight acres of land, plus the river beach, were enough for them to toss about, and there was no need during the autumn harvest. Make tofu.

On weekends, their whole family went to the field to break corn and cut rice. First, harvest corn and rice. Sweet potatoes and cotton can be a few days later, so that they have a buffer period. In addition to crops, there are also vegetables such as cabbage and radishes. It is a necessary storage material for winter.

Ducks have already started to lay eggs, laying [-] or [-] eggs every day. The marinated duck eggs can be sold for [-] cents each in the market, which is twice as expensive as fresh eggs, which is enough to show the scarcity of duck eggs. In addition, there are quails, which grow up day by day, but not only do not die, but one of the six is ​​male, and the rest are female, so there are four or five quail eggs that can be harvested here every day.

It only takes forty or fifty days from birth to laying eggs. Of course, their replacement is also faster, faster than ordinary chickens, ducks and geese.

On their side, ducks can't be called ducks, because it's a curse, and they are usually called duck kings, or duck ducks, but Zhuo Lin doesn't have this awareness, and she can't get rid of this problem, and everyone keeps correcting her, gradually. Yes, it was changed.

The autumn harvest and sowing this time have been busy from the beginning of October to the end of November. My father asked for a few days off to help out. Several older brothers who were in middle school and high school also took time off. There are many children in the school. So during this period, those who didn't ask for leave just reviewed and consolidated at school, and didn't talk about new things. It was a rare humanization, and naturally, it lightened the burden on the sister-in-law.
