It is difficult for the farmer's sister

Chapter 398 In order not to starve to death (February of the Lunar Calendar)
Ms. Liu had knocked and saw that the Ge family was still on the way. She nodded in satisfaction and waved her hands, "Okay, get up, it's still too cold and there's nothing to do, you just stay in the house Just wait!"

"Everything will have to wait until the snow has completely melted!"

After speaking, he walked out of the room, saw that Liu De was still giving work to the men of the Ge family, nodded to him, and went back to Su's house on his own.

Ms. Liu walked into the main room and saw Su Rui sitting on a chair covered with rabbit fur cushions. On the small table beside her were bubbled jujube tea and a small plate of snacks. She was flipping through the book.

He stepped forward and smiled, "Miss, the old slave is back!"

Su Rui nodded, without raising her head, she said, "How is it?"

Liu's mother knew what Su Rui's question meant, so she hurriedly said, "The old lady of the Ge family and the women are all good-natured, the children didn't speak clearly, but the adults are all good-natured, and the children won't be too serious if they think about it." Difference!"

Su Rui nodded seemingly, "It's fine, as long as it's not too bad!"

After a pause, she put down the notebook in her hand, looked up at Mother Liu and said, "By the way, since their family is here, it would not be appropriate for Sister-in-law Chen An to cook three meals a day."

"After all, Brother Chen'an and the others are members of the Su family, and they only came to work for me, not to sell themselves to me. Those who wait for me to buy are not so good!"

Mother Liu nodded hurriedly, "This old slave has already told them that there are two kitchens, and they and Chen An's wife will have their own meals for three meals a day in the future!"

Satisfied, Su Rui continued to look down at the script, turned a page and continued, "It's fine for them to find out, and I'll ask Uncle De to bring them some food, um, just some corn, not wheat and rice. Take it!"

"Yes."

After the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, the snow will not fall so frequently, and the temperature will gradually rise. In February, the snow will stop at all.

Su Zheng led a few people from the clan, stood at the top of the wheat field, looked at the wheat seedlings exposed after the snow had melted, and they were gradually rotten, bowing their heads in silence.

Su Changsheng became anxious, "Father, what should we do? The wheat is freezing to death! Do we have any remedy?"

"Uncle patriarch, you have to think of a way, the wheat seedlings are freezing to death, what shall we do?"

"That's right, patriarch grandpa, there is only a widowed mother left in my family, and a few younger siblings. There is no harvest this summer. How can we live?"

"The Patriarch..."

"Grandpa Patriarch..."

"Uncle Patriarch..."

Su Zheng waved his hands when he heard the words, looked at the fields in the distance, and then said, "The wheat seedlings have frozen to death, and you can't save them if you try to save them. You go home and tell your family that you want to have food in summer and not be starved." death."

"Stop complaining now, hurry up and mobilize the whole family to shovel out these corrupt seedlings!!!"

The clansmen were stunned upon hearing this.

Su Changsheng asked, "Father, what does this mean?"

Su Zheng looked back at him, "We are replanting corn now, and we can still harvest it in June and July."

"Although it will be a month later to plant the next season's grain, it's not too much of a delay. It's better than everyone starving..."

When everyone heard the words, they looked at each other, silently counted the ripening time of the corn in their hearts, and immediately said goodbye without delay, and prepared to go home with their families and tools to plow the ground!

Su Zheng was thinking of going to the field to look at the crops, but Su Rui's family didn't go, so he sent his son home to get the tools to call the family, and went to work in the field first, while he walked in the direction of Su Rui's house.

Su Rui was at home with her sisters playing with flower pots. Seeing that the weather was getting warmer, Su Ying got some henna seeds from Su Qin, thinking of planting them, so that when the flowers bloomed in summer, she could use the flowers to dye her nails.

Su Rui readily agrees. There is no modern nail polish in this era, and the younger sisters are getting older and know how to be beautiful. They want to have their nails dyed, and she still agrees!

"Grandpa patriarch, why are you here?"

Seeing Su Zhong leading Su Zheng into the yard, Su Rui hurriedly patted the dirt on her hands, got up and greeted him!
Seeing this, Su Ying stood up hurriedly, "Grandpa patriarch!"

"Grandpa Patriarch!"

"Hi patriarch, grandpa!"

Su Zheng looked down at the several flowerpots on the ground, and asked casually, "Girl Rui, what are you doing?"

Su Rui smiled and explained, "Ying'er got a pack of henna seeds from Sister Qin'er, they want to dye their nails in summer, so..."

Su Zheng understood it clearly, little girl!It's normal to be ugly, and his granddaughter likes it too!

He waved his hands and said, "I'm fine, girl Ying, you continue to plant you!"

Su Ying looked at Su Rui when she heard the words, Su Rui nodded, and then said to Mama Liu and Xi'er who were standing beside her.

"Mother Liu, Sister Xi'er, bring out the chairs and the small tea table, make a pot of tea, and serve some snacks!"

"Yes."

"Yes."

Mother Liu and Xi'er nodded and stepped back to move the chairs, while Xi'er walked into the kitchen to prepare refreshments!

Seeing this, Su Zheng hurriedly said, "Girl Rui, don't bother me so much, I'll just say a word and leave!"

Su Rui smiled and said, "No trouble, Rui'er hasn't seen the patriarch's grandpa for a long time, and I just want to talk to the patriarch's grandpa! Patriarch's grandpa, don't think Rui'er is annoying..."

Does Su Zheng have the nerve to refuse when he hears this?That must be embarrassing!
Sitting on the chair, Su Zheng took a sip of tea before saying to Su Rui, "The snow has melted, do you have any plans?"

"what?"

Seeing Su Rui looking at him with a confused face, Su Zheng shook his head helplessly. There is no adult in this family, so it's still not possible!Although there is Liu De and his daughter-in-law in Rui girl's family, they don't usually have much contact with farm work, and they don't know much about farming.

"This time the snow has been falling for three consecutive months. Although it has melted now, the winter wheat in the field has also frozen to death! There must be no harvest in summer, so you have no idea now?"

Su Rui blinked her eyes and wanted to say that she has endless food in her space, so if the winter wheat is gone, it will be gone!Anyway, she couldn't starve to death with this big family!
But she also knew that she couldn't say that, so she could only ask hesitantly, "Ying, what do you think?"

"you·······"

Su Zheng glanced at Su Rui, who had an innocent face, and knew it was not good to lose his temper with her, after all, she was still a child!My grandson is so old, and I have children, so I don't understand anything, so I have to ask him everything?

He sighed again and said, "The winter wheat seedlings have been frozen to death, and the snow has melted again. In order to make up for the loss, you should shovel the rotten wheat seedlings in the field at this time, turn over the ground, and plant spring corn... ... Only in this way can we have food to eat in June and July!"
