Chapter 4: Going to the fields to pick up crops

Lao Jiang also suddenly thought of the Taoist priest who came to them when Yaya was just born, and quickly found the peace talisman and boiled it into water for her to drink.

Sure enough, Yaya slowly recovered the next day.

Lao Xiangtou thought of something again, and suddenly said: "Let Shiro and the others take Yaya when we pick up crops in the afternoon, and it's good to bask in the sun."

"Well, okay."

Mrs. Jiang had no objection, because her Yaya couldn't tan. Strangely enough, her Yaya ran around with her brothers in the village, but she never got tanned by the sun. On the other hand, her brothers were so dark that they were almost as black as carbon ones!
In the afternoon, Xiang Tiange was overjoyed to learn that he could also go to the fields to pick up crops with his brothers. He pulled the brim of the straw hat his grandma put on him and asked Xiang Tiange excitedly as he walked beside him. Xiang Wulang said, "Fifth brother, fifth brother, can you take me to catch birds later? The birds you brought back last time were delicious, I want to eat them again."

When Xiang Wulang heard Bamei's words, he looked a little embarrassed. He said: "Bamei, it was Third Brother's gang who caught him last time. I will ask Third Brother later to see if he is free for us to catch him?"

Having said that, Xiang Wulang was not sure whether the third brother would be caught again, because the last time he caught them were the birds that fell in the fields and ate the fallen grains. They gathered in groups, and the third brother moved. Reacting quickly, he actually took off his straw hat and pounced on it. Two or three little stupid birds were trapped underneath. After repeated attempts a few times, those birds became smarter, and not many grains fell on the ground. Just give up!

But that time we caught more than a dozen of them. Fortunately, there were more than a dozen of them, so Xiangjia could only have one for each of them!
"Huh? But Fifth Brother, didn't you tell me that you caught the birds? You caught many, many more."

Xiang Tiange put down the hand pressing the brim of his hat and opened his big arms to express.

Xiang Wulang wanted to cry. If he had known that last time he would not have boasted about going to Haikou to tell Bamei that he had caught those birds. Now that the lie was about to be exposed, his great image in Bamei's heart was gone.
Xiang Wulang, who was racking his brains to figure out how to round up this lie so that his great image would remain in Bamei's heart, was kicked by Xiang Silang who was carrying Xiang Tiange. He said: "Always Why are you lying to my eighth sister?!"

After Xiang Shilang kicked him, he gently raised a hand and patted his eighth sister on the lower back, and said to her: "Bight sister, don't listen to your fifth brother, he is just lying to you!"

"Oh! Fifth Brother, it turns out you lied to me! Next time you lie to me, I won't play with you!"

Xiang Tiange said to him with a puffy face.

"Well, yes, I won't play with him next time! Just play with Fourth Brother!"

"No, eighth sister, fifth brother is wrong, I don't want you to praise me more." Xiang Wulang quickly begged for mercy and told the truth.

"Then don't lie to others next time, so that I can praise you more!" Xiang Tiange thought for a while and said to him.

"Okay! I promise!" Hearing what she said, Xiang Wulang quickly raised his hand and swore to the adults as he promised.

A few people fell behind and came to Lao Xiang's field noisily.

Except for little Jiang who had to stay at home to prepare dinner and do housework to feed the chickens and ducks, the rest of Lao Xiang's family came out to work in the fields, which was equivalent to the entire Lao Xiang family going out!

When the three of them came to the field, the rest of Lao Xiang's family were already bending down and cutting rice in the field. The younger Liu Lang and Qi Lang also followed behind the adults to pick up the ears of grain that fell on the ground.This is what Lao Xiangtou asked Xiang Tiange to do, to pick up ears of grain.

However, no one in the Lao Xiang family expected her to pick it up seriously. The purpose of Lao Xiangtou and Lao Jiang was just to let their little granddaughter bask in the sun and get rid of the yin and evil spirits in her body.

"Fourth brother, fourth brother, let me down. I'm going to pick up crops with sixth and seventh brothers~" Xiang Tiange saw that Xiang Liulang and Xiang Qilang were helping in the fields, and he quickly wanted to get off the fourth brother's back. Come down and help the family.

She has never been to the fields to help with work before. This is her first time, so Xiang Tiange is very excited!
I feel like I have grown up a lot and can now help my family!
"Hey, slow down, slow down." Xiang Shiro squatted down so that she could step firmly on the ground and get down.

"Sixth brother and seventh brother, I want to pick up grains with you too!" Xiang Tiange slid down from the field ridge directly on her little buttocks, avoiding the rice stubble in the field that was about as high as her thighs, and came to Xiang Liulang to ask Beside Shichiro.

"Eight sisters, here is the small basket for you!" Xiang Qilang took an empty small basket from beside him. The ears and grains that fell in the field were collected from it.

"Thank you, seventh brother~" Xiang Tiange thanked him sweetly after taking the basket.

"Eight sisters, come to my side to pick it up! The soil here is drier and easier to pick up!" Xiang Liulang waved to her and motioned for her to come over to his side.

"Okay!" Xiang Tiange fluttered his short legs and walked towards him.

Xiang Silang and Xiang Wulang felt relieved when they saw their eighth sister following their sixth and seventh brothers. They hurriedly went to the front to help gather the handfuls of cut rice into a pile, so that the adults could easily carry them later. They were tied up and carried to the threshing floor in the village.

As for the eighth sister who is obsessed with catching birds, she has to wait until the work in the fields is almost done before she can ask her third brother to help her~
After a long time, when Xiang Tiange felt that his small waist could no longer bear it, he sat aside and rested, watching his father and two uncles continue to carry rice from the fields to the barn, and then let them sit in the barn. Xiang Dalang, Xiang Erlang and his mother in the threshing field threshed the grains and dried them in the sun on the field.

Of course, not all of them are threshed at once. The grain farm in Taohua Village is only that big. There are exactly 100 households in Taohua Village, which means that each household has just two acres of more than [-] square meters to dry the grain.

Basically, every household first moves the rice to the side of the threshing floor, waits for the threshed ones on the ground to dry, and then moves it down from the piles of rice to continue threshing with flails and then dries it in the sun.

However, the sun is now strong and the weather is excellent, which is suitable for drying rice. After two days of drying, the rice will be almost dry and can be harvested.

Although Lao Xiang's family was allocated a lot of land, their family had a large population, so they had to finish their farm work faster than other families in the village who had less land.

For example, they cut several acres of rice in the afternoon, and the whole family finished it in one afternoon.

Lao Xiang's family cultivates more than 60 acres of land in total. Regardless of the number of acres, the yield of the land is not very good.

The imperial court granted each family a hectare of land to every adult male, that is, a hectare of land, of which [-] acres were Yongye fields and [-] acres were oral subdivision fields. The oral subdivision fields must be returned after death.
