Chapter 97

The temperature rises day by day, and the wild peach blossoms as soon as the wicker is pulled out. In the spring, Shuitang Village is full of warm atmosphere.The older children will follow their elders to pick some wild vegetables back home, while the younger children lie on the ridge of the field looking for frogs. After finally catching a small frog, they hurriedly invite their friends to go fishing for lobsters.

This year there is an extra beekeeper in the village, and the beehives are all woodwork done by Shan Fuman, and they just wait for the honey to be harvested to give them a living money to buy the turnover for the second half of the year.

Compared with Shan Fuman's family, other people in the village seem to be more stretched. Once the seeds in the first half of the year are bought, they will have no money to buy chemical fertilizers and pesticides.The only way is for the men to go to the city to do some work while they are almost busy.

Farmers who can't read or write enter the city, but they can only wait in a long line where the contractor can see, and wait until the foreman calls for a few people before squeezing forward...

Zhao Guang and Zhao Liang joined the ranks. When they came, they only wore short-sleeved gowns, not even a coat.There were a lot of people in line, and the two could only follow the crowd.Zhao Liang looked around and made sure that he and his younger brother were in the best health among the group, so he breathed a sigh of relief.

The weather in this spring is unpredictable, and now they have missed the last train back from Yushui. If they still can't be recruited, they may have to rain at night. The only thing they are lucky is that they have some dry food in their bags.

I saw the contractor with a chubby belly patted the bodies of the people in the team one by one, picked and hired a few, and the sign of employment was to write "job" on the back of that person with chalk.Compared to his elder brother's calmness, Zhao Guang was obviously more anxious. It is impossible for this contractor to ask a large number of people to go, and I am afraid that their quota will be full before they arrive!
"Brother, how many have you seen recorded?"

Zhao Liang patted his younger brother on the shoulder: "Don't panic." It wasn't his first time to recruit workers, and he knew what kind of small job the foreman was looking for.

The contractor inspected Zhao Liang's body and nodded, then checked Zhao Guang's body and nodded.

Zhao Guang was happy and smiled at his brother, it's done!But the contractor suddenly frowned and said, "You two know each other?"

Zhao Guang nodded. Zhao Guang didn't know what the foreman was going to say, so he was a little stunned for a while.

The foreman took a puff of the cigarette in his hand: "Our quota is already full, you two can only ask for one, who will go?"

How could Zhao Guang accept such a result, his ears were burning with anxiety!Zhao Liang smiled and said: "My brother and I are here together, how can we leave alone here? It happens that we know how to weave some bamboo mats, why don't you take us both, if someone's bamboo mat is broken, we will also If you can repair it, you can pay [-]% of the wages of ordinary workers."

The fat foreman remembered that the bamboo mat at home should be changed, nodded and said two "records".

The public land hadn't been vacated yet, so Li Hongying moved the seedlings grown from the stalks to the private plot nearby.Guixiang will not come back until night, and she is the only one left in the field.

Fortunately, the work in spring is not as hot as summer, but it is very troublesome to carefully pick up a full bed of seedlings and put them into the throwing basket one by one, and pick the throwing basket into the private plot.

After going back and forth several times, Li Hongying felt heavy in her head for some reason, her eyes went dark, her feet slipped and she fell to the ground, and she leaned on the ridge for a long time before recovering.

When Gui Xiang rode over, she happened to see her washing her face by the pool, so she got off the car and called her.

Li Hongying smiled: "Why did you come back so early today?"

"I'll be back when the homework is almost finished." Guixiang said while driving the bicycle to her private plot and fell asleep.

Li Hongying forced herself to stand up, and took a long time to breathe comfortably: "I don't know what happened today, I feel dizzy and uncomfortable."

Guixiang also knew that her body was not as good as before, "Mother, go home first and rest."

"There's still a little left, I'll go back with you some more." The seedlings in the field would die if they didn't move away.

Gui Xiang hurriedly patted Li Hongying's vest and said, "My lady, I'll do the work in the field."

The moon gradually rose up, but the clouds moved too fast, Guixiang looked at the moon and saw that the moon was hazy and not very clear.

No matter how well the crops in this field are planted, they can't make a lot of money. Back then, the cotton press was the one who made the most money. After finishing her busy work this season, she will go to learn an accountant. When the time comes, she will ask her little mother to follow her to gin the cotton. It's easier than this business with your face facing the loess and your back facing the sky.

When passing by Old Man Xu's house, Gui Xiang brought him the longan bought from Shuili. Her grandfather liked to peel something to eat.Previously, Guixiang was afraid that he would be lonely. When Wang's wife gave birth to a puppy, Guixiang went to hug one for her grandfather.

No, just after entering the door, the little flower dog came all the way wagging its tail.The old man Xu was also happy when he saw Guixiang: "Go to the field again?" This girl looks more and more like her dead daughter.

Gui Xiang nodded: "Just stayed there for a while, the cotton seedlings need to be removed in a hurry."
