Chapter 354 The vicious sun
Three days later, the rain stopped. Five days later, the water receded, and the previously submerged farmland resurfaced.
The farmland is not much different from the previous ones, except for a little more sedimentation. However, the rice originally planted in it has either been directly washed away or died. The harvest of these fields cannot be expected. .
At this time, the village naturally started to change, and it could no longer be as peaceful as before. Whether it was cleaning up flooded farmland or other chores, manpower was needed.
Qin Xi and Tang Ying did not go to clean up the flooded farmland, but were assigned to weed the dry land where peanuts, soybeans and corn were grown.
It had rained for more than a month before, and it finally stopped. After a few days of sunshine, the weeds in the ground grew like crazy. After only a few days, they were as tall as the crops. If we don't take care of it, the weeds in the ground will grow. All the nutrients inside have been usurped by weeds, and the fruits produced by the crops are not good, and the harvest is even more hopeless.
Moreover, there is a time limit for weeding. If we cannot get rid of the weeds before they bloom and bear fruit, there will be more weeds in the next year and the field will be more difficult to manage once the seeds are produced.
Now, as long as there is something active in the village, everyone has started to move. Even the primary school in the village has been suspended. Everything must serve production.
It is impossible to be lazy. Everyone has their own task field. Qin Xi, Tang Ying and the others must finish weeding three-thirds of the land today. If they don't finish weeding, there will be no work points.
When it's time to get off work in the afternoon, scorekeepers will come over to inspect. If the inspection passes, work points can be recorded for them.
Qinjiang Heyuan and the others were assigned the task of weeding the rice fields. There is a kind of weed that looks very similar to rice. The rice has not yet sprouted ears. It is difficult to tell the difference between the two with the naked eye. It must be experienced. If you have good eyesight, go and do this job.
After all, they were young, so they were naturally recruited.
After all, the village has the most paddy fields. In Chenhui Village, 2/3 of the farmland is paddy fields, and the rest is dry fields, which are planted with crops such as sweet potatoes, peanuts, soybeans, potatoes, and corn, which are used by the villagers to fill their stomachs. .
After all, when the harvest is good, all rice is used. Most of the rice harvested in the village every year is handed over as public grain. The rest, when the harvest is good, each person can share twenty or thirty kilograms. When the harvest is bad, It was only a dozen kilograms, and the remaining food was filled with sweet potatoes, corn and various beans.
Next door to Qin Xi and Tang Ying was Liu Mei. She originally didn't want to come, but when Qin He was told by the village cadre, he called Liu Mei to work.
At this time, as long as you have someone who can move and breathe, you can't waste it. Every household can leave at most an old lady at home to look after the children and take care of the housework, no more.
Although the work points could be attached to Qin He's name, Liu Mei did it with reluctance.
Since marrying Qin He, she has never been to the ground, nor has she done any heavy work. Moreover, she is pregnant now, and she feels uncomfortable everywhere in her body. When she sits, her butt hurts when the stool is between her. Not to mention now, after only a few minutes of bending down to do it, she straightened up, and while watching Qin Xi and the others working, he gently hit her lower back with his hand.
Her body is so exquisite now!According to her mother, this woman's first child is very important. She can't be careless. Just make it passable. If she can't finish it, there will be someone to help her.
Tang Ying walked to the side, called Qin Xi, and then pursed her lips, gesturing for her to look at Liu Mei next to her. This person might have some bad thoughts in his heart!
That is to say, this person is standing next to her now. She can't say anything because she is afraid that someone will hear her and say that she is alienating their sister-in-law. But Liu Mei is really mean-spirited and she is just lazy at first glance.He must be trying to push the endless work to Qin Xi.
Seeing Tang Ying's nervousness, Qin Xi wanted to laugh a little: "It's nothing, just do it quickly. Finish it early and go back to rest early."
Pulling weeds is a tiring job, especially one that takes a lot of time.
After working for two hours, Qin Xi stood up straight and stretched. There was a clicking sound. He felt that the situation was better than before. He stretched and felt more comfortable.
As for the grass, there is still more than half of it left to pull out, and there is still some drying!
After completing these three points, she had six work points, which was not much, but she was already very satisfied. She had better leave the matter of earning work points to her brother!
She is responsible for raising the rabbits, and when the time comes, she can use the money to buy food on the black market.
If possible, Qin Xi would really like to get a small bench to sit on and pull weeds. In this way, the speed will be much slower, but it is more friendly to the waist. Anyway, she has a lot of time, so she can spend it here slowly.
Unfortunately, she still wanted to save face. She was afraid that if she did this, she would be drowned in the spit of the villagers, so she gave up the idea.
Liu Mei, who was standing next to her, saw Qin Xi standing up to rest, and greeted her with a smile: "Xiaoxi, is it hot? I have water here, do you want to come over and take a sip?"
"The weather is very hot. It would be bad if you get heatstroke."
It was now past nine o'clock, and the sun that had only felt warm in the morning was almost turning into a scorching furnace. Qin Xi had already put on a sun-protective straw hat on his head.
It is still necessary to wear this hat. After all, the sun is so fierce now. If you don't wear it, your head will be exposed to the sun for a long time and the temperature of your head will not drop down, and you will suffer from heat stroke.
It has been raining a while ago, and the water vapor has not completely dried. When exposed to the harsh sun, it turns into water vapor and rises directly. People working in the fields are like steamed buns on a steamer. They are steamed and dried on their heads. The sweat flowed down as if they were free of money. After a while, the clothes on the chest, front and back were all wet. If they took off their clothes now and twisted them, they would be able to squeeze out the water beads.
"No need, I brought water, just drink yours, keep yours and drink it slowly!"
After all, it’s not just today that the weather got hot. Ever since the rain stopped, the sun has been coming out every day to get some air. It was fine in the first two days, but now at the hottest time at noon, the temperature can even reach 35 degrees. This It's very scary.
You know, this was the 70s. The ecological environment at this time was still very good, and the population was not as large as in later generations. In normal summers, it was 32 degrees Celsius, which was already as high as the sky. This year, after the rain stopped, it dropped directly to 35 [-] degrees Celsius. , and also means to continue to rise. If you can't stand it, you really can't stand it.
In the summer in the village, there are no ice cola popsicles, nor electric fans or air conditioners. All they have is cold water from the well and cattail fans.
Qin Xi sometimes couldn't sleep at night. It was eleven or twelve o'clock, and she would get up and take a cold shower. It was too hot, and her whole body was sweaty and sticky when she slept. She couldn't isolate herself well, so she didn't take a shower. I kept thinking about this in my mind and couldn't sleep at all.
