happy daughter-in-law

Chapter 86 Aunt (Fourth)

The corn in the team is harvested during working hours, and the corn in each family’s private land is harvested by the villagers during their morning and evening breaks.

At this time, no one complained about being tired from work. Looking at the sacks of corn cobs, no matter how tired they were, it was worth it.

The same is true for Shen Yunfang. She got up early in the morning and armed herself. Although the weather was still very hot, she was still wearing long clothes and trousers, and a turban around her head, which was a standard peasant woman's dress.

Corn fields are not so easy to drill. The leaves of corn are very sharp. If you don’t wear long sleeves, your body will definitely be bruised after a day.

Shen Yunfang's family has a total of [-]% of the private land, and she is interplanting, so the amount of corn planted is only about [-]% of the land.

She thinks that she has always been nimble in her work, and brother Da Shuan also comes to help when she is in the middle, so in one day, she took back all the corn in the private plot.

The next day, she harvested several ridges of corn in the backyard by herself.In the next few days, the upper worker was peeling corn leaves in the grain drying field of the production team, and the second worker was peeling corn leaves in his own yard.

The corn cobs that have been peeled must be exposed to the sun, and the corn grains can only be rubbed off after they have dried to a certain extent.

Shen Yunfang borrowed a scale and weighed it. She harvested a total of more than 790 catties of corn cobs from her own two plots, and the yield per mu was nearly [-] catties, which was much higher than the output of the production team. She was very pleased, but the good news It's just that she digested it internally, and she didn't leak a word on the outside.

There are many people and strength, and the whole village, men, women and children, went out together, and the hundreds of acres of corn in the team were harvested in two days.

After three days in the drying field, on the morning of the fourth day, Shen Yeqing invited the whole village to go to the drying field, where they weighed the piles of corn with large scales and distributed the grain!

There were no electronic scales at this time, and weighing grain was the kind of large steelyard carried by two people, which required a lot of physical strength.

It's the old rule. After completing the basic task rations issued by the state, each person will be given 480 jin of corn for the standard ration of [-] jin a year.The rest will be handed over to the state.

There are many people and the work is fast. There are hundreds of people in the village, and all of them are divided in one morning. Then I watch the villagers pushing the small carts of each family, pushing the corn home one after another. The joy on their faces I can't hide my expression.

Shen Yunfang's house didn't have a cart, so Shen Yeqing ordered Shen Zhiwen to help her push it home.

At the same time as the corn was distributed in the village, the corn in each family's private land was also harvested.

After entering September, Shen Yunfang began to lead the sheep up the mountain normally.

This time she didn't try her best to rush to the wild vegetables, because there was already something more attractive to her in the mountains, and that was mushrooms.

Originally, when she was digging wild vegetables, she could occasionally pick up some mushrooms, but they were all sporadic and not in pieces.Since September, after an autumn rain, the mushrooms in the mountains have sprung up like mushrooms after a spring rain, popping up in pieces.

Mushrooms are a very seasonal fungus, and this month, after the [-]th, they will disappear without a trace as they appeared.Therefore, in order to save more delicious food for herself, Shen Yunfang drilled into the woods when she went to work. As long as she found a mushroom, she didn't have to stand up, and she was guaranteed to be surrounded by a whole area.

That day, Shen Yunfang guessed that she was going to leave work, so she carried a cup of green grass on her back and a basket of mushrooms on her arm, and drove the sheep down the mountain.

As soon as I made a detour from my own house, I saw a child looking around at the door of my house.

Shen Yunfang took a closer look and found that the child recognized him, it was Er Gouzi.

"Er Gouzi, are you looking for me?" Shen Yunfang flicked her whip and drove the sheep towards the production team, while she stopped and asked the children at the door.

"Someone came to look for you this morning. My mother asked me to call you." After Er Gouzi finished speaking, Sa Yazi ran to the village as if someone was chasing him.

"Hey, wait, do you know who is looking for me?" Shen Yunfang hurriedly stopped the person, it was unclear, and she didn't understand anything.

Er Gouzi wiped his nose with his sleeve, and said in a low voice: "It seems to be your aunt. She came this morning. Seeing that there is no one in your house, she has been waiting at your door. My mother went up the mountain at noon and saw it. Your aunt Just ask my mother to tell you that she will come tomorrow, so don't leave and wait for her."

Shen Yunfang nodded understandingly, she was only an aunt, she knew who it was, and probably guessed what this aunt was here for.

"Okay, thank you, and thank your mother for me when I go back." Shen Yunfang took out a piece of fruit candy from his pocket and stuffed it into Er Gouzi's little hand.

This kid is not bad, although he is a little tired, he can speak clearly, he is a sensible kid.

In fact, it was Shen Yunfang who was so rare and weird. At this time, the rural children couldn't be dismissed like this.

Shen Yunfang watched Er Gouzi run away, then slowly raised her legs to chase the sheep, but she was still wondering what to do about it.

She definitely couldn't give away the food for nothing like this, even if she didn't ask for the food last year, she was still worried about it.

As for her attitude towards her mother's natal family in the future, she has already made up her mind, but this bad guy will not be able to be herself for a while, so what should I do about this matter.

Shen Yunfang thought about it all night, and went to work the next day as usual, so she simply ignored what her aunt left her yesterday.

When Er Gouzi came back at night to report again, her aunt came again, and she was very angry to see that she was not at home.

Shen Yunfang didn't care, she wasn't the one who was angry, it would be better if she was so angry.

So for the next few days, she went to work so regularly, and finally her aunt was unreliable.

Early in the morning, there was a bang on the door of Shen Yunfang's house.

Shen Yunfang faintly guessed who was coming, so she put down the kitchen knife in her hand, patted on her clothes, and walked over to open the door.

Sure enough, standing at the door was Shen Yunfang's aunt, the aunt who came to her house to carry a hundred catties of corn at this time last year.

"Yunfang, don't you know that I have come to see you several times? Why don't you wait for me at home during the day, so that I got up and rushed to you before dawn. You said you child, why are you so heartless? What about the elders?" Qian Xinxue, Shen Yunfang's only aunt, asked with a bad face.

"It turned out to be my aunt. I have to go to work during the day. If I don't get any food at the end of the year, I will go to my aunt's house to borrow food. I think the burden on my aunt's house is heavy, so I don't want to trouble you. If I knew Aunt thinks so, I will definitely not go to work and wait for you at home." Shen Yunfang curled her lips.This person came up with a questioning tone, which was really unbearable.

Listening to her lukewarm tone, Qian Xinxue frowned, she was not in a hurry to question, but carefully sized up her niece.

This child has grown longer than last year, and his eyebrows and eyes are more like his sister-in-law who passed away, but there is no cowardly expression on his face, but he looks at him openly.

Qian Xinxue was startled, what's the matter, why did those bastards of the old Shen's family brainwash her, why is it so hard to fool her this year.

She thought about adjusting her strategy, and her expression became sad, "Yunfang, Auntie missed you when she said that. I came back and forth several times and didn't see you. Auntie is worried! Now I can count you as seeing you." Now, I feel relieved. Yunfang, you are a good boy, do you know about your aunt?" Qian Xinxue said as tears rolled down her eyes.

Shen Yunfang rolled her eyes on the spot out of embarrassment, this scene was staged, no wonder the original Shen Yunfang was deceived.

"I missed me, why didn't you come to pick me up during the Chinese New Year last year? Since I came to borrow food last year until now, you have never appeared, aunt. I don't see how you miss me." Shen Yunfang said lightly.

Qian Xinxue's eyes widened, and the tears in them were also stared away.

"Yunfang, from what you said, you also know the difficulties of my aunt. The family is poor, and there are old and young. My aunt takes care of the whole family at home every day. Even if I want to see you, I really can't find the time. , Yunfang, you are a filial child, you must understand my aunt, right?" Qian Xinxue quickly took Shen Yunfang's hand and groped in her big palm, with a look of great love.

"Hmph, disgusting." Er Gouzi watched from the side, and couldn't stand it any longer. He spit on the ground and walked away swaggeringly in front of the two of them.

He saw this woman sneaking into the village in his yard just now, and he quickly followed her vigilantly. Seeing that Shen Yunfang wasn't too stupid, he felt relieved, rubbed his stomach, and should go home It's breakfast.

"Who's this brat?" Qian Xinxue felt uncomfortable when she was interrupted, and her face became ugly.

Shen Yunfang was so happy, this Er Gouzi was quite fun, and I will reward him with two candies when I have a chance.

She took her hand out.

"Yunfang, you see my aunt has been standing at the door for so long, why don't you let my aunt go home to rest, I have been walking to Gaijiatun since four o'clock in the morning, and I didn't even catch my saliva on the way , but I'm thirsty." Qian Xinxue hurriedly cultivated her emotions again, and was about to enter the room before talking.

Although this niece's attitude is a bit wrong today, she believes that if she chats with her well and talks more about her mother's home at the time, at worst she will be dragged into tears, and in the end what she asks for will definitely come true.

And these days her heart is itching. When she came here last year, the house was not locked yet. This year, General Tie is guarding the door. There must be something good in the house. "There are too many people outside, let's go inside and chat." She said, and she was about to push Shen Yunfang away and go into the yard.

Shen Yunfang didn't want to lure wolves into the house, so she immediately crossed her legs and moved her arms, blocking the road.

"Auntie, that can't be done. After you left last year, my uncle said that as long as you come in the future, let me take you to his house. After all, there are no elders in my family. If you come, you have to be entertained by the uncle. He wants to ask you something." Shen Yunfang said, this kind of person is like a dog's skin plaster, and it won't come off if it sticks on, so it's better not to provoke yourself.
