Nongmen Blessed Wife: The elder sister-in-law has space for farming

Chapter 445 Threshing Rice Ears

Yin Ziying's heart trembled, and then she nodded solemnly: "Don't worry, Mr. Chen, my original intention is to fill the stomachs of the people in the world." Now it's just a way to accomplish one more goal along the way.

Seeing Mr. Chen staring at her, Yin Ziying hurriedly smiled and said: "Mr. Chen, don't get angry, there will be an adaptation period for grain seeds every time they go to a place, and they have to be stabilized. As an old farmer, you know this well. of……"

The two walked away while talking, Uncle Gu, Zhou Hui and the others looked at each other in blank dismay, and the last few people followed directly behind the old and the young.

Seeing that the two visited the rice fields just now, and even went to see other people's wheat fields, peanuts and corn, they walked slowly into the village.

When he returned to Yin's house again, Mr. Chen looked at the beautiful girl striding towards the threshold, but what he thought of was the prosperous pastoral that she had just described to her.

It is true that this girl does have her own selfishness, but if this selfishness is for the greater good, then he can act as if she can't see it everywhere.

Then I thought of what this girl just said, turning their small and barren county into a county that people think of when they mention chili, the capital of chili.

If all the people in the Ministry of Agriculture, if the county magistrates from all over the country have the same idea, teaching according to the locality and digging out the characteristics of each place, why should they worry about the Great Yan Dynasty?

Yin Ziying didn't know what Mr. Chen was thinking behind her. She just told Mr. Chen her plans for grain seeds and peppers, and gave him an example to show that it would be better for the grain seeds to be planted in large quantities in their local county first than to flow to the outside market. .

As for her and Wei Lingyi's private plans, of course she couldn't tell Mr. Chen.

Time passed quickly, and the next day, Yin Ziying was fully dressed and followed Uncle Gu and the others to the field.

When the first sickle went down, a large handful of rice ears were placed on the rice pole next to it, which was heavy and very gratifying to look at.

Not only did she go to the field in person, but even Chen Lao and Zhou Hui went down to cut the field with great excitement. This is rice, the rice grown in the Northland, each ear of rice is heavy, such a yield...

There is someone invited by Yin Ziying, but her field has already been mowed in one morning, and the rest is to wait until the afternoon to pick out the ears of rice and then pick up whether there are any missing ears of rice in the field. This kind of thing is left to Gu Yunxuan Such a child is fine.

However, in a few days, the rice of every household in Baijia Village could be harvested. Because of Yin Ziying and the old village head's call, these people did not only harvest their own fields like the previous autumn harvests, but harvested from one family to the next. go down.

The women stood at the edge of the field and selected a field one by one, and walked forward while cutting. When everyone passed, the field would be harvested.

Half-year-old children took the picker's load and put a lot of ears of rice in it. After the men came to pick them away, the children of the village came to go through the field again. They came to pick the ears of rice.

In this way, within two or three days, all the rice in Baijia Village was harvested. Now the village has sent a few people to the field to watch, turning the ears of rice from time to time, which is not an easy job.

At this time in the village, the rice in Yin Ziying's place has already driven the oxen and mules to pull the stone mill to thresh the ears of rice.On the other side, Chen Lao and the others were also hitting the rice bed in front of them with rice ears, so that the speed was not much slower than the cows and mules on the other side.

But Yin Ziying couldn't bear this kind of crime. When the rice ears were beaten down, sometimes a few grains would be splashed and hit her face, which was painful and painful. Moreover, if the rice ears and rice ears were touched too much, her body would itch, which was very painful. It's uncomfortable, not to mention herself, even Gu Yunxuan doesn't let her get close, after all, the child's skin is most prone to allergies.

Mr. Chen threshed a small pile of rice ears around him into rice, and when he got up to drink water, he saw Yin Ziying and Gu Yunxuan squatting under a tree, seeing that it had nothing to do with him made him very angry.

"You say you little girl, is this your field or mine? Why do you want me to clean it up? You just hang around here as if you have nothing to do with yourself."

Yin Ziying knew that most people would have a temper if they did this under the scorching sun, so she didn't provoke him, and just smiled and handed over the bamboo tube she had frozen with well water.

"Mr. Chen, try it. Hawthorn drink is refreshing and relieves tiredness. Drink more to get rid of the heat."

Mr. Chen glared at her angrily. At first he wanted to say something, but when he thought of her cooking skills, he couldn't help but licked the corner of his mouth. Among other things, this little girl's cooking skills are pretty good. .

The liquid in the bamboo tube was sweet and sour, icy and cold, making people salivate. After drinking it, he wanted to drink again. He quickly finished the sour plum soup in the bamboo tube.

Seeing him staring and wanting to drink again, Yin Ziying smiled and said: "Old Chen, this thing is too cold, it's not good to drink more, come over later and drink again!"

Old Chen: "Why can't you drink more? I used to drink a lot of cold well water all at once. You don't have a few mouthfuls of this little bamboo tube, so don't lie to me."

Yin Ziying twitched the corners of her mouth. Although the bamboo tube is not big, it can hold a rice bowl, which is quite a lot.

"Don't talk nonsense, you've done so much work for you, you just give me something to drink, keep searching."

Yin Ziying: "Mr. Chen, this is cold. If you drink too much, you will easily get upset. Otherwise, the one here has not been iced. Would you like another drink?"

This old man is not young, if something happened to her, she would not be able to bear it if Princess Changyue asked her to blame her.

Mr. Chen immediately lowered his face, muttering so dissatisfied that even Gu Yunxuan who was beside him couldn't help it, "Grandpa Chen, drink quickly, my sister Ziying is going to make delicious food tonight!"

"Oh? What's delicious?" Old Chen's eyes lit up.

Gu Yunxuan smiled and said: "Sister Ziying said she wants to make ice bowls for herself, so don't be greedy for cold at noon."

Ice bowl?In the past, Mr. Chen would have thought it was a bitch's thing, but now in the midsummer weather, he just thinks that this little girl can make anything delicious, so making ice bowls must be terrible.

Looking at the bamboo tube that was obviously not soaked in well water, Mr. Chen curled his lips, "Don't drink it, my old man has to work."

Yin Ziying couldn't help but smile.

In the evening, Yin Ziying really prepared an ice bowl.

A few days ago, the old shopkeeper of Cuixianlou in the town brought her two milk-producing sheep, saying that they had found them from other places, otherwise she would not be able to make this ice bowl today.

Not to mention the ten miles and eight towns nowadays, at least the people in Baijia Village and Cuixianlou know the relationship between Yin Ziying and Wei Lingyi.

Therefore, Yin Ziying accepted the old shopkeeper's kindness generously, she knew that it was Wei Lingyi who took care of it for her.

Mr. Chen ate very happily. In the few days since Yin Ziying came back, not only Mr. Chen, but Zhou Hui, who was always thin, had a lot of flesh on his face.

Everyone was satisfied after eating the ice bowl after eating.
