Chapter 157 157 Tired

At noon, it is steamed corn bread, but there are oil residues and minced chives in it, mixed with shredded cucumber and pickled vegetables.Another pot of scallion and tomato soup.

Because there are five brothers and sisters, there are no eggs, because it is difficult to explain.

Continue in the afternoon.This time, I used Zhao's donkey cart to load the potatoes I left behind.

They caught up for more than an hour, and three cars and twelve people came from the field department.

Su Yuanyuan went over to say hello, and Ma Changshun also drove over. He came to weigh.

Zhao Yanli followed behind them, putting the small ones and injured ones they didn't want into boxes.When it is full, it will be sent to the donkey cart.

The speed of the twelve of them is quite fast.In the evening, all the qualified potatoes removed today were loaded into the truck, and there were five trucks in total.Two of them are donkey carts of Su Yuanyuan and the others.

There were more than one carload of small bruised potatoes, and they were all put in the yard.

In this way, it took three days to finish the potatoes on less than [-] acres of land, which is already very fast.

"Team Leader Ma, we will start harvesting sweet potatoes tomorrow. If your family also harvests in autumn, we won't delay you."

"Well, my family will start tomorrow, and I want to use your scorpion."

Su Yuanyuan shook her head, "Team Leader Ma, we and the brothers and sisters of the Zhao family paid for this bag together. We just wanted to use it together. We'll take it first, but they haven't yet. I'm very sorry."

Ma Changshun smiled, "Okay, I'm going to get two of these cutouts this year. It's really easy to use. It saves a lot of effort."

A total of 50 potatoes were handed over from the [-] mu of land.In addition, there are still small potato seeds at home, and the yield per mu has reached [-] catties.It's really a lot in this day and age.

"Yuanyuan, the five of us will collect the family after we finish our work with you." Zhao Qingxiang said while eating.

Su Yuanyuan thought for a while, "It's okay, it will be collected in about 20 days. We will go to your house to do it together, and we will collect it when it is frozen."

In fact, their sweet potatoes are planted relatively late. This is the time when the sweet potatoes are converted to starch, and the yield will be higher later.

The five brothers and sisters were sent away, the two of them rested for a while, and at night they directly used their supernatural powers, and they stopped after they had worked five acres of land. When the brothers and sisters came over, they had already picked out all the sweet potatoes Like potatoes, put away the small and bad ones and keep them for yourself.

"Yuanyuan, didn't you rest all night?"

"Well, we're afraid of delaying your business."

"Then we will stay tonight."

Su Yuanyuan shook her head, "No, you guys go to rest, the two of us don't have much energy during the day, and the main force still depends on you."

They hurry up.Five acres of land were harvested all day today.

In the end, it was dark, and their three donkey carts also went to deliver sweet potatoes.

When they came back at night, they still used their abilities.In this way, I worked continuously for a week.Now there is still a day's life in the field.

They have now handed over nearly [-] catties of sweet potatoes.

Along the way, many people will look at the sweet potatoes on the donkey cart.They are very envious of both of them.

The rest of the family is breaking corn.Seeing how other people's sweet potatoes grow like this, those who go back will pick up their own sweet potatoes, but the biggest ones are not as big as other people's sweet potatoes, and they are all that kind of sweet potatoes.

On the last day, they handed over another three thousand catties.A total of [-] catties of sweet potatoes were handed over, so their task must have been completed now.

Zhao Xiaoli is stingy and wants to pick up sweet potatoes in their fields, "There are not many, really, trust me, I will share some of my bad sweet potatoes with you."

Zhao Qingxiang shook his head, "No, we have them too."

Su Yuanyuan just smiled.Didn't say anything either.

Tan Shaoting said, "Two of us will arrive at your home at four o'clock tomorrow. We will drive two cars."

Zhao Qingxiang nodded.He is also in a hurry now.In fact, it is now five days later than the time I set.

But seeing that everyone's food has been harvested, how can we not be in a hurry?
The siblings didn't leave in a hurry, but helped Su Yuanyuan and the others put uninjured sweet potatoes, big or small, into the cellar after dinner.

In this way, the sweet potato seedlings will be raised next year.It is possible to use small sweet potatoes to raise seedlings, which will not affect the size of the sweet potatoes in the second year.

"You go back and rest, that's all that's left, the two of us will be done in a while."

After they left, Tan Shaoting put away all the sweet potatoes and put them in the cellar, of course they put them separately.

Today, the two of them just drank the water from the spiritual spring and went to bed. To be honest, the two of them were really tired for nearly 20 days.

The next day, the two had breakfast and drove to the Zhao family's field.

The five brothers and sisters are already cutting sweet potato seedlings,
Now they lined up seven, each with two sickles, cutting side by side.

They planted eighty acres of sweet potatoes.Thirty acres of potatoes, and the remaining forty acres of corn.

So seven people cut down all the sweet potato seedlings in [-] mu of land in one day.

At noon, Tan Shaoting and Zhao Qingxiang also went to the field department and applied for the production of sweet potatoes tomorrow.

Here is the same operation.Will come to pick.

The next day, they did the same thing as they did in Su Yuanyuan's field, but the number of sweet potatoes was really much worse.

But at least there are sweet potatoes. According to this yield, one mu of land is just over two hundred catties.

They spent five days on the [-] mu of land.

A total of 1 catties were handed over.It is agreed that we will start removing potatoes tomorrow.

It took three days for [-] acres of potatoes, and five thousand catties were handed over.

They didn't keep any potato seeds, and the rest were small ones. There was no way. Their task was [-] catties.This is still because of the drought this year, if it used to be one hundred and twenty catties per mu of land.

The task was finally handed in, and the five brothers and sisters were relieved.There are more than 5000 catties of sweet potatoes and potatoes left.

When returning home at night, Tan Shaoting and Su Yuanyuan took Huozi to Team Leader Ma's house.

Their family broke the corn first, that is, they had just removed the potatoes two days ago, so this crop came at just the right time.

Ma Changshun left one spare, even if they didn't need so many, they didn't have so many people to work.

On the second day, the two of them helped the five brothers and sisters to break the corn. While breaking the corn, the three of them wept. There were not many corn kernels on a single corn cob.

"It would be great if these [-] acres of land were also planted with sweet potatoes or potatoes, at least until next year's autumn harvest. There is not enough to eat now."

Su Yuanyuan didn't know how to comfort them, it was really miserable.

The four girls broke the corn because there was enough time.So the four of them directly peeled off the corn cobs on the corn stalks.Everyone carries a basket on their back.Put it on the donkey cart when it is full.
