Dressed as the heroine of the farming novel and the best relative

Chapter 120 The Great Harvest

Xiang Xi's current workshop can only cover a dozen villages at most, but there are dozens of villages below Yunshan County, so we have to find another way.

Xiang Xi said that she would help the county magistrate, but she needed the crops and land conditions in each village to measure what was suitable for planting.

This morning.

Xiang Xi had breakfast with Father Gao and Mother Gao, then walked into the fields with a basket on his back and a sickle.

Xiang Xi looked at the bright yellow wheat around the village. In the wheat fields were villagers bending down to harvest. Everyone had a smile on their face, because this year's grain harvest was bumper and the wheat ears were heavy.

There were many young children following behind, picking up wheat ears in the field. After a while, they picked up a basketful of wheat, which was heavy and staggering, which made people happy and funny.

"This year's harvest is good. It looks like it's going to be a bumper harvest. Life will be better for everyone in the village." Gao Gao specially closed his business during these busy farming days and came back to collect grain.

Even though Goldman Sachs and Xiang Xi bought a lot of land, most of it was not in the village. Those who were tenanted did not need to be taken care of. They only had to wait for the farming work to be over and collect grain on time.

However, in the past, the land of the Gao family still needed to be managed. Villagers usually helped pull weeds on their own initiative. This year, the land of the Gao family grew food with almost no effort.

However, as her family gets busier and busier next year, she will definitely need to hire someone to help with the farming, Xiang Xi thought, and harvested wheat with Gao's mother and Gao's father.

Harvesting wheat is not an easy job. It is tiring to bend down and the wheat leaves can easily cut your hands.

Xiang Xi had been cutting wheat all morning. Not only was she extremely hot, she also felt itchy.

Seeing that it was getting late, Gao Mu straightened up and said, "Xiao Xi, go back and take a rest."

"I told you that you have tender hands, so you will definitely have to endure hardship if you come here to do this job, but you don't believe it."

Xiang Xi just doesn't want her to be too fragile. After all, if she wants to travel far in the future, she will have to ride in a carriage for a long time. She can't bear the bumpy ride just from the village to the county, let alone going to a new place. Far away.

If Gao Yun wants to go to the capital to take the exam in the future, Goldman Sachs will definitely go too. The distance is too far, and it will take at least half a year to go. Besides, she also wants to go out to do business in the future, to see around and broaden her horizons, so her physical fitness must be good.

Now that summer is finally here, it doesn't have to be as cold as winter, so it's a good time for her to exercise.

Xiang Xi wiped the sweat from his forehead, shook his head and said, "Mom, please go back. I'm not tired. I just need to get used to it more."

"You kid, why are you so stubborn? There is no shortage of people to do the work at home." Gao's mother was helpless.

Xiang Xi said coquettishly, "Mom, I want to eat braised pig's trotters."

"Okay, eat!" Seeing Xiang Xi's insistence, Gao Mu had to go home to make lunch first. This braised pig's trotters couldn't be made in a short time, but it could be made in the evening. She happened to go back at this time and simmered it in the stove first. By the time it's evening, it will be soft, glutinous and fragrant.

Maybe it was inspired by good food.

Xiang Xi works more energetically.

When it got too hot at noon, Xiang Xi and Gao Gao both went to sit under the big tree next to the ground to enjoy the shade, waiting for Gao's mother to bring lunch.

Like them, there were many people in the village. People were sitting everywhere, and the female family members brought tea and vegetables.

Xiang Xi fanned herself with a fan at first, but soon gave up. Her hands and waist were sore, tired and itchy, and she preferred to be calm and cool down naturally.

Maybe it was because she had calmed down and ignored the heat on her body, so she was not so anxious. The wind blew her sweaty body, but she felt a little cool.

However, the heat was bearable, but the itching on his body was not. Xiang Xi couldn't help but reach out and scratch it.

Dad Gao could see clearly from the side, coughed slightly and said, "Xiao Xi, go back and take a rest. Your uncle and uncle told us to come and help us when they finish harvesting the fields. "We're not afraid that we won't be able to collect enough."

"Dad, I'm not tired, I'm just itchy. If you work more, you'll be in good health. If you're healthy, I can go out with my husband next time. I haven't traveled far yet." Xiang Xi said cheerfully.

When Father Gao heard this, he smiled helplessly, but stopped trying to persuade him, and realized that Xiang Xi had his own ideas.

He stood up and walked to the place next to his senior high school aunt and his friends.

Soon.

When Xiang Xi was sitting on the tree and feeling drowsy, the senior aunt came over with a teasing smile on her face. She walked up to Xiang Xi and took out a jar of something like grease from her arms.

"It's so itchy? That's what it's like when harvesting wheat. Your cousin Yuzhen cried in pain when she harvested wheat for the first time when she was a child. Now Han Yu, I don't even dare to let her do it."

"Come and apply this ointment, it will relieve the itching." Then the senior aunt said her intention.

When Xiang Xi heard this, she quickly rolled up her sleeves, and her senior high school aunt was applying it evenly to her side. She said with a smile, "Your father came to see me in person. I thought you brought it yourself."

"Second brother was not so considerate before. Although he could talk for a while while giving people acupuncture in the town, he was actually a taciturn person."

"Okay, you definitely don't have this snake ointment at home. Just take it back, take a bath at night, and apply it on the itchy wounds."

Xiang Xi listened to her senior aunt's instructions and nodded with a smile.

Just for a while.

Gao Mu also came over with a food box, and brought salt and sugar water. The vegetables in the food box smelled of meat.

"It seems that your family had a good meal today, and my family also cooked some fried meat." Auntie Senior High School said with a smile.

Xiang Xi followed Gao's mother to take out the food, including sauerkraut stewed with tofu, twice-cooked pork, and the most delicious pickled beans and minced meat.

Xiang Xi was very hungry, so she picked up the food and started eating. She didn't forget to ask Gao's mother to take some meat for Aunt Gao and Uncle Gao.

In exchange for the fried vegetables provided by the two families.

The three families were already close, and they have become even closer with the business cooperation over the past year.

Although the food in Aunt Gao's family and Uncle Gao's family is not as exquisite as Xiang Xi's, there is still meat. During the busy farming season, people in the village are reluctant to eat meat for fear of exhausting themselves.

There is meat, but the food Xiang Xi and the others eat tastes better, and the old people can tolerate it, but the cousins ​​can't stop thinking about these foods.

Xiang Xi was half full before slowing down his eating speed.

Hearing the excitement of several cousins ​​nearby grabbing food, she also laughed and couldn't help but say, "I don't know how my husband and my third brother are doing in the exams. Their results should have been released, but I don't know when they will be back." ."

Father Gao and Mother Gao obviously miss them very much.

And the two people who are being missed at this moment.

He was sitting on the carriage, following the Lin family's caravan back.

On the way back, I came across a tea shop. The tea shop was opened in a remote suburb far away from the county seat. The conditions were not very good, but it was the only way to go from the county town to the capital. It provided tea to passers-by.
