Chapter 268 Busy
Lanhua and Xiulan went to Shige Festival, not only bought some women's things, but also waited for Lanxiang in Shige Festival Junior High School.

So when Wang Manyin got home, he saw Lan Xiang playing with cats and dogs in the yard.

"Lan Xiang, it's almost time for the autumn harvest. Hasn't your school had the autumn harvest holiday yet?"

"In the village where the harvest is early, the classmates have already asked for leave, and the school will not start the holiday until two days later."

Lan Xiang is 13 years old, such a big child can help a lot in the autumn harvest, at least four centimeters a day can be counted.

"Since you're here today, let's leave after eating. Let your sister make white flour cakes for you to eat, and then fry some eggs. Learn to waste your brain. You need to make up for it."

Lan Xiang, a sensible and distressed child, is still very pitiful.

"Let's go home and eat. Mom must have cooked for me. If we don't go back, there should be leftovers."

"Mom doesn't have anything left from cooking, just a few black-faced steamed buns. It's the same to eat hot tomorrow. It can't be wasted. I haven't come to my brother-in-law's house for a long time, so don't be polite."

Wang Manyin dispelled Lan Xiang's idea of ​​refusing. After all, not all people are Sun Shaoping, who enjoy other people's kindness with peace of mind, and get what others give.

"Man Yin, why are you the only one coming back, isn't Shaoan with you?"

Seeing Wang Manyin entering the room, Lan Hua asked anxiously.

"Shao'an can't stay idle, he went to work for us in our private land, I thought Shao'an should have come back at this point, there is no past, I will call Shao'an to come back now!"

"Brother-in-law, I'll call my elder brother."

"Okay, Lan Xiang, you can go, Lan Xiang, you go with a basket, pick all the vegetables that should be picked from the field, let's eat tonight!"

Before Wang Manyin objected, Lan Hua agreed to let Lan Xiang call Shaoan back. This is what Lan Xiang is used to.

Wang Manyin should really be ashamed, even Lan Xiang went to her private plot more than herself.

Hearing what Lanhua said, Wang Manyin quickly helped Lanhua to cook after washing. Although Xiulian was very diligent, she was a guest after all. No guest was busy and the host was idle, which was not in line with the way of hospitality.

A child is more diligent than himself, Wang Manyin is really on pins and needles, feeling that there is fire under his ass.

In the evening, I made beans, potatoes, eggplants, scrambled eggs with tomatoes, made white noodle cakes, and millet porridge. Except that there was no meat, I also sincerely entertained three people.

Vegetables are not the key. Farmers have some private plots, and there is no shortage of these vegetables. What is rare is that Wang Manyin's family does not lack oil, eggs, flour, and millet.

"Sister, your life is not like this. You eat white noodles at noon and eat it at night. What are the conditions? In the past, the landlords did not dare to live like you!"

"Exaggerated, Shao'an, this is Xiulian, and Lanxiang is here, so I only eat white flour cakes. If you come alone, you can only eat black flour buns."

Wang Manyin can't let Lanhua speak. Lanhua is a person who can't tell lies, and her younger brother doesn't answer when asked. The worst food in the family is cornmeal.

It was time for Wang Manyin to be interrogated by Sun Shao'an. Let's get to the bottom of it. One thing more is worse than one thing less.

"Brother Shao'an, sister, and brother-in-law kindly entertained us, so you can eat."

Xiulian has always been like this, she has her own ideas, and she will not obey Sun Shaoan in everything, which also makes Shaoan take the title of "King of the Hammer".

Of course, Lanhua will not forget her parents. Shaoan brought back the white flour cakes she made more, intending to give them to her parents. Grandma has steamed buns made at home alone. Sun Yuhou and Lanhua's mother are reluctant to eat white flour cakes. Cheap Sun Shaoping.

……

"System, sign in!"

"Congratulations to the host for getting: one yuan in cash, two catties of pork belly!"

Wang Manyin complains about the system every day. The autumn harvest is not considered an important day. The system does not have a critical attack. Most of the Loess Plateau refers to the autumn harvest for food. How much harvest can only be harvested in summer. Autumn harvest is already the most important day for farmers in a year. Big day.

It can be said that all the people in the village are mobilized for the autumn harvest. This year, the autumn harvest task of the first team is a bit heavier. In the past, the straw was left on the ground and distributed to whom. After the autumn harvest, they would take it home by themselves. Now they even bring the straw together. pull back.

There are still a few people left to help Wang Manyin to make the green storage together. Even if everyone is very motivated, the progress of the autumn harvest is slower than usual.

Wang Manyin has been spinning like a spinning top for the past few days. Of course, he can’t be idle during working hours. There are also many things at noon and after work. In the villagers’ homes, the second production team and the first production team in Shuangshui Village in Shao’an, Wang Manyin is constantly spinning.

The simplest thing to say is that Wang Manyin’s family is a green reserve, and there are a lot of people who come to help. They all want to come here to learn skills, and the family needs to be the green reserve Wang Manyin’s guidance. There are both first and second teams. Sweet pastry, true skills are still more popular than bragging about knowledge before.

When the crops were harvested, Wang Manyin was temporarily released, and the first ten days of the eighth month of the lunar calendar was over.

Of course, other people still have a lot of things to do in the field. It is time to plant winter wheat on the ground, and it is time for the animals to work hard.

In fact, the winter wheat planting area in Guanzi Village is not large, and the yield is not high. The land is barren and fertilizers are in short supply. Wheat growing is not considered the main business.

After the autumn harvest, it was a long time to rush to plant the villagers' winter storage vegetables, radishes, cabbages, and potatoes.

Everyone else was busy, so it seemed that Wang Manyin, a sheep herder, was free. Wang Mancang arranged for Wang Manyin to take a group of half-grown children who couldn't work in the village to pick the jujube trees and ripe apples in the village.

The fruit trees in the village belong to individuals except for a few farmers who grow in their yards, and the others belong to the collective. The fruit trees in Guanzi Village are not as large as Shuangshui Village, and there is a large jujube forest, which can hold a jujube festival.

However, the scattered peach trees, pear trees, apricot trees, apples, and jujube trees are not a problem to supply the villagers with fruit in the season when the fruit is ripe. The villagers can go to the market to sell the fruit if they can't finish it, but the local fruit It is not rare in the ripe season, and it is not easy to sell at a high price.

The fruit trees are also well protected. They belong to the collective and are naturally supervised by everyone. Even the second-handers in the village dare to steal fruit from the villagers’ homes, but dare not easily steal from the collective.

Cracking jujubes is relatively easy. After a few bamboo poles are dropped, the ripe red dates will fall off. That's why they are called jujubes.

What took a lot of effort was picking apples. After all, Wang Manyin was too old to climb trees like children, so he supervised the children to pay attention to safety.

This is a task added by Wang Manyin himself. The task Wang Mancang assigns to Wang Manyin is to supervise the children to eat and not take them home without permission. Climbing trees is not dangerous. Even though there are few big trees in northern Shaanxi, none of the farm children have climbed trees with one hand. ability.
