My village can't be like this

Chapter 479: Absolute Harvest

The old man and the old lady originally brought some of Zhang An's uncles and aunts over to see Su Ying and Xiao Siqi again, and then planned to return to Changqing.

After all, they came here yesterday because they were worried and caring about Su Ying and the children.

Now that the child was born successfully and nothing happened, they can go home with peace of mind, and it is not as inconvenient as staying at home with the whole family in the city.

It's enough to have Wu Qiuping and Wang Fang here, no matter how many people there are, it's useless.

In a few days, Su Ying's health will recover, and she will be able to leave the hospital and go home for confinement.

When the time comes, they can guard their great-grandchildren all day long in the village.

But when we came here today, the old lady just held little Siqi for a while and couldn't let go.

Because she saw Xiao Siqi's big bright eyes staring at her without crying at all.

Paired with the little guy's chubby little face, it almost melted the old lady's heart.

But it was time to go back, and it was almost ten o'clock before the old lady reluctantly put little Siqi back to Su Ying's side.

After all, they were going to take Chen Ze and Li Hongbin's car when they went back, so why did they have the nerve to let them wait?

"Zhang An, give me the key, and I will drive your car back first. When Xiaoying is discharged from the hospital, you can drive my car."

Before leaving, Chen Ze threw his car keys to Zhang An and took the pickup truck's keys from Zhang An.

Because there is really no comfort in a pickup truck, he knows that Su Ying has always been motion sick, not to mention that she has a child with her.

So he left his car with Zhang An. After all, he left the car when he returned to the village.

His car had been in the city before, but it was because of Jiang Qiong that he drove it to the village. This time it came in handy.

Zhang An did not refuse, because good brothers don't need to say anything.

But this also reminded Zhang An that it was time to change his car.

The family has not had any expenses in the past few years, so all the money he has earned overtly and covertly has been saved. Changing a car is not a burden for him at all.

"Xiao An, we will watch here during the day, why don't you go back and rest."

After all, it was the mother-in-law who loved her son-in-law. Before Wang Fang said anything, Wu Qiuping asked Zhang An to go home and rest out of concern.

At this time, only Wang Fang and Wu Qiuping were here. Su Shaowen came to work in the morning and then went to work.

Zhang Jianguo also went back with Chen Ze and the others just now. After all, he can't play any role here, and there are so many animals at home to take care of, and it's really hard to have no one at home.

"It's okay, Mom. Your grandson is so good. He didn't make much noise last night, so I slept well here last night. I don't have to go back to catch up on my nap."

As a result, no one in the family went back, and they all stayed in the hospital.

But no one felt bored, because little Siqi, who was born yesterday, has been rolling around in the arms of several people. After grandma hugged her, even Zhang An had to step aside.

In this way, everyone's attention was focused on Xiao Siqi, and it was noon before Zhang An took Wu Qiuping back to cook.

While Zhang An was helping his mother-in-law in the kitchen, the familiar ringtone of Nokia's call came from the clothes placed on the sofa.

He took out his cell phone and looked at it, and found that it was Zhu Yuliang calling.

"Hey Lao Zhu, if you're not going to eat right now, why don't you call me?"

Zhu Yuliang usually goes to the Three Treasures Hall for no reason. Although he often calls Zhang An, there is something big or small every time.

"I'll go right away. We have a meeting here tomorrow morning. Although it has nothing to do with you, if you have time, come over and walk through the country."

After hearing what Zhu Yuliang said, Zhang An probably understood that this was probably not an important meeting.

"I happen to be in the city. Let me go there tomorrow morning."

If it were in the village, Zhang An wouldn't bother to run that far because it would waste too much time.

But now that he is in the city, a trip to the Forestry Bureau doesn't take much time, so just think of it as a drop-in.

"Why are you in the city? Since you're here, why don't you come to work and have a look? Xiaozhuang cleans your table every day."

Now it was Zhu Yuliang's turn to be surprised, because he knew that Zhang An was just like a wandering wild crane, staying in the mountains all day long, but he didn't expect that he would take the initiative to enter the city this time.

"I don't have time. The baby is about to be born. I just sent my wife to the hospital yesterday. She can't leave at all."

After all, there are only two mothers in the hospital. If Zhang An is here, he can run if there is anything to do.

But he didn't tell Zhu Yuliang that he had entered the city a few days ago, otherwise he would definitely be nagging him for a long time.

"Time flies by so fast, is the child born now? Is it a boy or a girl."

Zhu Yuliang couldn't help but sigh, this was not ignorance, but he was shocked to find that more than a year had passed in the blink of an eye.

He clearly remembered that Zhang Ancai had not been married for long, and now the child was about to be born.

"I gave birth to a baby last night. It's a baby."

When Zhu Yuliang talked about the child, Zhang An didn't even know that a smile appeared on his face unconsciously. At this moment, he really felt what Ding Yi was feeling before.

"Congratulations then. I'll come over and take a look after get off work."

After Zhu Yuliang asked Zhang An about the location, he was ready to come over for a visit after get off work.

He and Zhang An have always been close friends, and Yu Qingyuli also wanted to come over and take a look.

"Okay, it's just a good time for the little guy to get to know his Grandpa Zhu. Maybe you will have to deal with his future work."

Zhang An chatted with Zhu Yuliang on the phone, without any thought of being polite.

After all, Zhu Yuliang's family is in the city, and coming here is only a matter of ten or twenty minutes.

It's convenient to come here now, since I don't have to go back to Changqing after I'm discharged from the hospital, and then I'll have to make a special trip to the village.

Returning to the hospital at noon, colleagues from Wu Qiuping's unit took advantage of their lunch break to visit Su Ying and Xiao Siqi.

During this period, Wu Qiuping took Zhang An to see him off and thanked everyone.

In fact, Zhang An knew most of them, because many of them lived in Wu Qiuping's family home.

It is said that once you make friends twice, Zhang An has been back and forth so many times, so he naturally got to know the people in the courtyard.

It wasn't until after get off work in the afternoon that Zhu Yuliang came over.

But the battle was not small at all, and Zhang An was stunned. Except for Zhu Yuliang, many colleagues from the Forestry Bureau came with him.

"It's not Lao Zhu, why did you call everyone here?"

Zhang An was a little dumbfounded. There were more than a dozen people in this ward, not counting their own, and they almost couldn't stand anymore.

"You made the mistake of blaming me. When I called you at noon, they all heard it, so they came here on their own."

Zhu Yuliang chuckled and quickly threw the pot away.

Most of the people in their unit have benefited from Zhang An to some extent. He doesn't need to ask for such important things, others can do it on their own.

It's just that this time everyone came together, and the battle became a bit big.

"Yes, we came here ourselves. Could it be that only our director can come, and we can't come." The person who spoke was Bai Xue. This little girl had been with Zhang Ping for so long, and she was becoming more and more familiar with Zhang An. , speaking is not like before at all.

"No, no, I'm just afraid of delaying your return home from get off work. Speaking of Xiaoxue, when did you and Zhang Ping decide on the matter? I heard that he has been busy preparing for it recently."

Zhang An knew that Zhang Ping had been busy preparing for an engagement in the near future.

But this is normal. The two have been together for such a long time, and Zhang Ping is already quite old. Under the urging of his uncle and aunt, he naturally speeded up the process.

"Go, go, I won't tell you anymore, I'll go find my sister-in-law."

When Zhang Ping was mentioned, Bai Xue's face turned crimson instantly, especially with so many people watching.

"Okay, okay, stop being stunned and bring the child over to show us. All of us are here not to see you, but to see the child."

Seeing Bai Xue so embarrassed, Zhu Yuliang came out to smooth things over.

At this time, Zhang An picked up little Siqi from Su Ying's side and gave everyone a look.

"Wow, he's so cute. His eyes are so big and bright."

Today's little Siqi, although only one day old, has grown a lot more than yesterday and has turned into a white and tender jade-carved doll.

Not only are his eyes big, but he also has double eyelids like Su Ying. With his chubby little face, he looks really cute.

Many people, especially girls, were melted by his big eyes when they looked at him.

Sure enough, later generations of netizens are honest, big eyes and double eyelids are the sure-fire skills.

"Yes, yes, and he is not afraid of people and is still staring at us."

Generally, newborn babies are very sensitive to strangers and will cry when they see strangers.

But not only did little Siqi not cry, but stared at them curiously, which surprised everyone.

"By the way, Zhang An, has the child given a name? What is it called?"

Zhu Yuliang whistled to tease Xiao Siqi, then raised his head and asked Zhang An.

"It's been picked up. My grandfather picked it up. His name is Zhang Siqi."

"Not bad, not bad. I always think of others when I see them. This old man is a good name."

When most people hear these two words, they can immediately think of this Analects of Confucius.

Finally, the little guy may have been hungry and started to make a fuss. Zhang An sent him to Su Ying and then followed everyone to the corridor outside to talk.

After staying for more than half an hour, everyone from the Forestry Bureau went home.

It's just that the ward was already filled with things everyone brought, and Zhang An just moved back and forth several times.

In this way, Su Ying stayed in the hospital for two days.

"Xiaoying has almost recovered. She can be discharged from the hospital today and go home for confinement."

In the morning, Aunt Song came over for ward rounds and said to Wang Fang with a smile.

"I didn't tell you about Xiaoying's health. After so many years, she can recover within two days after giving birth. I have never seen anyone else except Xiaoying."

She has been a doctor for so many years and has never seen anything like this. Most people would need at least a few weeks to do it, and Su Ying was tortured for so long in the delivery room last night.

"Then thank you Aunt Song. You have worked hard these two days."

Zhang An was not surprised that Su Ying recovered so well.

After all, Su Ying's daily meals were cooked by Zhang An using space spring water, so she would definitely recover faster than normal people.

"We are all our own people, so there is no need to talk about these things. I also watched Xiaoying grow up."

Aunt Song waved her hand and responded.

Even Zhang An said she wanted to invite them doctors to dinner, but she refused without hesitation.

Since it was still early, Zhang An took Su Ying home after being discharged from the hospital.

Wu Qiuping had not used up the leave she had requested, so she had to go to Changqing to take care of Su Ying.

It's not that she thinks Wang Fang can't take good care of her, it's just that she wants to fulfill her duties as a mother.

But this is a hardship for Zhang An's father-in-law. He is the only one at home after get off work every day, and he has to cook his own meals.

In the end, he simply gave up and ate in the work canteen before returning.

Fortunately, he still had the pair of little orioles given to him by Zhang An at home. Listening to the clear and melodious chirping of the birds every day made the house a little more lively.

After returning from the hospital, Su Ying began confinement at home.

Zhang An's family is very popular in the village. After everyone in the village knew that Su Ying was back, they all came to visit her.

Entering October, everyone is busy.

Although the corn replanted in the fields has not yet reached harvest time, the rice harvest in the fields has also failed.

But it doesn't mean that we should just ignore it, especially the rice in the fields. They must be harvested regardless of whether they are harvested or not.

Otherwise, there will be no crops in this field next year.

Zhang An's family also wanted to take action, because Wu Qiuping was there, so Wang Fang followed Zhang An and his wife to the fields to cut straw.

To say it is straw is an understatement.

Although after the heavy rain in July, God's weather became more favorable.

The seedling nests in this field are also so big that Zhang An can barely hold them in his hand.

In the past, such a nest of rice would have been heavy to cut, and there would have been a lot of rice.

But it didn't work today. The Yangwozi was much bigger than before, but it was light and weightless at all.

Zhang An looked carefully and saw that almost half of a rice stalk was filled with rice husk without rice, and only a small part of the rice stalk was filled with rice.

After a few days of busy work, a total of six acres of paddy field produced more than a hundred bags of millet.

But these grains are not serious. Although they are full, they have no weight at all.

Even Wang Fang can easily carry four or five bags, enough to see how many empty rice husks are inside.

I moved it back home and blew it away with the wind, blowing out the empty rice husks. There were less than twenty bags of real millet, and it was estimated that it weighed more than a thousand kilograms after it was dried.

On average, the yield per mu is more than 200 kilograms, and the harvest rate is 60-70%.

This is actually a good result. Their family can still have so much millet.

Other people in the village are not as good as their family. A better family can probably produce more than a hundred catties of millet per acre.

Those who are worse off are those whose fields have been soaked in river water for more than 20 days. All they cut are empty rice husks, not even a grain of rice.
