After transmigrating into a stepmother, I transformed my whole family to work on farming

Chapter 15 Farming is Impossible

On the open space, Qin Yao hugged her tightly with two babies on one side.

The five of them cuddled together tightly, looking worriedly at the small house in front of them, the thatch flying in the strong wind, looking like it would collapse at any moment.

Wait, wait, wait, wait.

The wind died down.

The small house that looks very fragile is still standing tenaciously in front of my eyes.

But looking at the thatch scattered on the ground, and the empty house with only beams and a few pieces of thatch, Qin Yao didn't know whether to be lucky or sad.

The house was saved, but it would definitely cost a fortune to re-roof it.

Looking at the only forty coins left in her pocket, Qin Yao felt that the sky was going to kill her!
The four little guys didn't know the sadness in her heart. Seeing that the house hadn't collapsed, they shouted in surprise: "Auntie, the house is fine!"

Qin Yao glanced at the excited Erlang: "You call this all right?"

Overwhelmed with resentment, Erlang shuddered and covered his mouth in fright.

The sky was turning white, and the mess on the ground was clearly visible. Qin Yao rubbed her twitching temples and signaled the four brothers and sisters to stand still and not to move, and walked quickly towards the village.

Qin Yao knocked on the door of Liu's old house.

Just after planting all the land yesterday, the men of the Liu family were thinking about taking a rest, but they were still asleep at the moment.

Second Aunt Qiu got up to relieve herself, heard the knock on the door, and came to open the door, only to see Qin Yao appearing in front of her with a blank face.

"Yes, what's the matter?" Second Aunt Qiu, who managed to calm down, asked cautiously.

She didn't know whether it was because it was too dark or something else, but when she saw the new daughter-in-law of the third family, she couldn't help but feel angry.

Qin Yao said: "Second sister-in-law, there was a strong wind at night, and the roof of my house was blown off."

Second Aunt Qiu was startled, "Is it windy?"

"It's very windy." Qin Yao's tone was affirmative.

Sister-in-law Qiu was also stunned for a moment, but now she realized what she was doing, her expression changed, and she asked with concern: "Are you okay?"

Qin Yao shook her head and said she was fine, then Second Sister-in-Law Qiu breathed a sigh of relief, and hurried into the house to wake her man up.

The movement in the courtyard alarmed old man Liu and Mrs. Zhang, and the two old men put on their clothes.

Second Aunt Qiu pointed at the door and said, "Father, the roof of the third family's house was blown off."

Old man Liu was shocked, and he heard Mrs. Qiu said that he was fine, so he felt relieved, greeted his three sons, took the tools for repairing the roof and rushed to Liu Ji's house.

Qin Yao followed behind, looking at the hurried appearance of the father and son, her heart, which had been hardened for a long time, melted.

People in the village have a variety of crafts, and repairing a roof is nothing to the old man Liu and his son.

When they saw the empty roof, they got busy without saying anything.

Liu Fei picked up all the usable pieces of thatch that fell on the ground. Seeing that this was not enough, Liu Bai and Liu Zhong hurried to the river bank to cut grass.

Old man Liu went home and brought a ladder, went up to the roof, took the pieces of thatch thrown by Liu Fei, and re-laid it.

But in one morning, the roof was re-paved and reinforced by the father and son, and a few heavy stones were pressed on the four corners to prevent the wind from blowing up again.

Feeling grateful, Qin Yao cooked all the brown rice she bought home yesterday into porridge, and left the father and son at home for lunch before leaving.

Old man Liu drank the thick brown rice porridge from his bowl, then looked at the mother and son squatting in front of the stove, chewing taro, but hesitated to speak.

In the end, he didn't say anything, put down the empty bowl, and led Liu Bai and the others away.

But before leaving, she couldn't help but tell Qin Yao: "Plant those two acres of land quickly, I'm afraid it's going to rain in two days."

Qin Yao should know, and after taking a few steps, she came back, called Dalang, picked up the hoe, picked up the can of wheat seeds, and walked towards the two acres of land on the other side of the mountain.

Erlang stayed at home to look after the house and the twins.

Although they are all acquaintances in a village, and their family is also in the innermost part of the village, it is unlikely that they will meet a flamboyant woman, but Qin Yao still dare not leave only the four-year-old twin at home.

Qin Yao felt that she had the land planting scriptures she took from Mrs. Zhang yesterday, just planting a field, how troublesome could it be?

Unexpectedly, the slap in the face came so quickly.

Liu Ji's two acres of land have been dug up by the original owner.

Qin Yao only needs to dig a hole, sow the wheat seeds, and then bury them.

However, from mid-afternoon to evening, only one-tenth of an acre of land was sown!

Qin Yao looked at the large unseeded open space in front of her in disbelief, suspecting that she was dazzled.

Otherwise, why did she work so hard all afternoon to plant such a small piece?

This is not the point, the point is that she feels that her newly raised body is almost too much for her.

Turning to look at Da Lang sitting on the ridge with his face flushed from the sun, both mother and son saw despair in each other's eyes.

The weather is cold in the morning and evening and hot in the day. Liu Ji's land is quite remote. His family's two acres of land are the only ones in the entire mountain valley. There are so many bugs that they buzz around your head.

Qin Yao was not fully prepared when she came, so she could only put her coat on her head and hug her head tightly, exposing her eyes.

But the exposed ankles and insteps of the mother and son were covered with mosquito bites, and they were itchy and did not dare to scratch, for fear of scratching the skin, which would be even more uncomfortable, which was particularly tormenting.

Even if the wasteland in the mountains has been hoed once, a few stones and tree roots will appear in the field from time to time, and they must be thrown out before the seeds can be sown.

The straw sandals on my feet were not easy to walk in the fields. After taking a few steps, the soles of my feet were covered with heavy mud, which restricted my movement speed.

Farming is a repetitive process that is boring and tedious.

With dozens of hoes in front, Qin Yao dug furiously, and when they touched stones, they immediately sparked.

But as the digging went down one after another, the hoes in his hands became heavier and heavier, and even Qin Yao, who was strong, began to have swollen and sore arms.

After sowing seeds again and again, I bent down, stood up, and bent down again. After repeating it hundreds of times, my waist couldn't bear it anymore.

In addition, the face was covered in the clothes, and it was hot and stuffy. Every time I moved a step, all kinds of discomforts came up, which was extremely tormenting.

Qin Yao insisted on coming until the sun set.

I thought that because of my hard work, I should have sown more than half of the seeds, but I didn’t expect that I only had a small part.

Dalang couldn't help it, he scratched the mosquito bag on his feet gently, and looked at Qin Yao profusely, giving her the illusion that he was abusing child labor.

Thinking of experiencing such extreme torture tomorrow, Qin Yao almost wanted to go back to the end of the world.

She would rather fight among the zombies and become the nourishment of mutant animals and plants, and never want to farm again tomorrow!

Thinking of the old man Liu and his son who left early and returned late, taking care of the family's more than 100 acres of land throughout the year, Qin Yao instantly respected the father and son.

The sun was about to set, and unknown birds chirped from the mountains. Dalang stood up and looked at Qin Yao with some fear, "Auntie, it's getting dark."

Qin Yao was so abused by farming that she didn't want to say anything, she waved to Da Lang, and the mother and son returned home under the moonlight.

In front of the stove, Qin Yao gnawed the taro roasted by Erlang Sanlang and thought to herself that she had to go into the mountains.

It is impossible to farm, and I don’t want to farm again in this life!
