Reborn Scholar

Chapter 12

After hearing Meng Shi's words, Lu Caixia couldn't help laughing.

"It's raining? Look at how many days it's been dry, and I haven't even seen a single rain. Besides, even if it's raining, it's a big deal to wait a few more days before harvesting the wheat. People in the village planted it earlier. Several families, and those that grow wheat interlocking cotton, have harvested the wheat, and others have harvested it, and they are not afraid of rain, nor are we.”

Interplanting cotton refers to the interplanting of cotton in the wheat field.

Originally, wheat should be planted in a large area without ridges, but because of the larger plants of cotton, the distance between cotton and cotton should be far, and ridges need to be divided.And if you want to plant early cotton, you can't grow wheat in the field. After the wheat is harvested and then plant cotton, it will become late summer cotton.

If you don't grow wheat, you can only grow crops that are harvested early, such as rapeseed. But the price of rapeseed is not high, so people don't want to grow it.

Therefore, it is planted into wheat interlaced cotton, which can not only harvest a large part of wheat, but also plant early cotton.

Many people do it like this. Grandma's house has a few pieces of land that are planted with wheat and cotton, but grandma said that there is no rush, and the wheat will be harvested in two days.

But for those who grow wheat and cotton, because the weather is too dry, if you want to water the cotton seedlings, you have to cut the wheat first.

Meng Shi thought for a while and said, "Mom, that's it. We've been in drought for so many days. Haven't you heard of the principle that everything must be reversed? If the drought lasts for a long time, it will naturally rain."

Lu Caixia shook her head, she didn't believe it at all, "It's fine, it's fine, you just study hard, don't worry about it so much."

Meng Shi was very helpless, but she found that she had no good way to persuade Lu Caixia.

After all, even the weather forecast said that the drought will continue and there will be no rain.

Thinking of this, Meng Shi gritted his teeth, "Mom, if you don't cut it, I'll go to the field by myself!"

"Why are you so stubborn, kid? They've been planting land for decades, why don't you know as much as a kid like you?"

"Anyway, I don't care, whether you like to cut it or not, at worst, I will cut it myself!"

With that said, Meng Shi ran back to the room to change without hesitation.

After changing my clothes, I was about to go out pushing the bicycle.

"How do you always say that the wind is the rain? What time is it! The sun is so hot, you forgot that you were sunk into the field last year when you harvested the wheat!" Lu Caixia hurried out.

Meng Shi was also stubborn at the moment, ignoring Lu Caixia's cry.

Seeing that Meng Shi was about to get on his bicycle and leave, Lu Caixia quickly came over and grabbed the bicycle, "Okay, okay, let's cut the wheat! I'm really afraid of you little ancestor, it's almost noon now, go to the ground You can cut it in a few minutes before you have to come back for dinner. After dinner, let's go to cut it in the afternoon, okay?"

Meng Shi succeeded and finally smiled.

After being reborn, she should be able to slowly change something.

For example, a child of hers made a lot of money by publishing an article, or she cleverly rescued a child who was kidnapped in Z City, so, relatively speaking, her right to speak in the hearts of her parents has increased. Many, they no longer treat her like a child and carry out authoritarian discipline.

In the morning, Meng Qingshan was watering the cotton seedlings. When he came back at noon, Lu Caixia told Meng Qingshan about Meng Shi's stubbornness.

Meng Qingshan frowned and thought for a while, "That's all right, just cut it. It's too dry today, and it will fall off a lot if it's overcooked. Ask Yingpeng to come over to help, cut off our chickens first. The piece of land in Ling is almost the same, I think."

So the matter of harvesting the wheat was settled.

Last year, when she was cutting wheat in the field, Meng Shi was also helping out, but because she didn't eat in the morning and was dehydrated due to the heat, the family brought rice wine at noon, and as soon as she drank it... she poured it down.

Just this time, she was said by her family that she fainted from hunger and sunburn.So no matter what this year, her parents will not let her go to the field.

Meng Shi's family now lives in the town, but the village is about three kilometers away from the town, and the village is the old house of the Meng family.

Originally, grandpa and grandma lived in the old house, but grandma spent more than half of the year living in various aunts' houses, so grandpa lived alone in the old house.

Grandpa is a well-known steward in the village. No matter who has weddings and funerals, he likes to ask grandpa to help arrange seats, order, toast and so on for the guests.

Grandpa and grandma have always been at odds.Both of them have very stubborn tempers.

When my younger brother Meng Xiangfei held a banquet for his first birthday, grandpa and grandma got into a fight for some reason, and from then on, even if they lived in the same yard, they ignored each other.Until grandpa died, there was no reconciliation.

When I was young, my grandmother only cared about helping to take care of the children of my aunt's family, and Meng Shi was always taken care of by my grandmother.

How should I put it, children are very forgetful in many cases. After being scolded or beaten by adults, they forget it after a while and don't hold grudges.

Several children from my aunt's family grew up with my grandma until they were teenagers. Grandma was very partial to them, and Meng Shi was often jealous.

But these are just a matter of thought, and it's over when it's over. Meng Shi didn't really resent grandma. After all, she also likes to play with her cousins.

But since last year, which happened in the winter of the second grade of elementary school, Meng Shi really blamed his grandma from the bottom of his heart.

It was winter, during the winter vacation, Meng Shi came back to his hometown to live with his grandma.

Meng Shi's favorite cat in this life is named Pang Pang, very fat and round.

In winter, there is no other last year's equipment, it is very cold, sleeping with the cat in my arms, it is very warm.

Meng Shi likes to be fat, and he insists on hugging it when he sleeps at night.

In the middle of the night, Pang Pang probably wanted to go out to catch mice, but Meng Shi refused, so he hugged it and pressed it under the bed.

As a result, Pang Pang got angry and bit the back of Meng Shi's hand.

This bite is very ruthless.

Blood flowed out immediately, and after Pangpang ran away, Meng Shi could even see the white flesh in the wound.

It was very deep, and even after it healed later, the scars of these four teeth marks had clearly accompanied Meng Shi all his life, and they were already very clear after many years.

At that time, grandma was sleeping on the other side of the bed, under a quilt. Meng Shi cried and called grandma, saying that the cat bit her.

But grandma just muttered something, turned over and fell asleep again, letting Meng Shi cry and ignoring her.

The next morning, the back of Meng Shi's hand, where he was bitten, was already swollen very high.

What grandma said at that time, Meng Shi has completely forgotten now, she only remembers that grandma didn't comfort her or anything.

Later, she ran to Luying Village, which is less than two kilometers away from her own village, which is her grandmother's house.

When grandma saw Meng Shi's hand, she was shocked immediately, and she couldn't help but take Meng Shi to town for an injection.

After that, although Meng Shi was still very close to grandma, there was already a gap in his heart.

When she grew up, she once thought that it was midnight, winter night, cold, and people were sleeping deeply, maybe it was because grandma didn't hear what she said clearly.But there is always a lump in my heart, which I can't get rid of.

Grandma now lives in her aunt's house dozens of kilometers away, and grandpa is the only one in the old house.

Grandpa was in good health until his death, his health was always good, and the death was sudden.

At this moment, my grandfather is only in his 50s. In the countryside, he is considered a labor force in the prime of life. Even in his [-]s and [-]s, there are still many people who still work in the fields.

To cut the wheat, grandpa will naturally help.

Because the whole family went to battle, grandma and Meng Shi cooked in the Meng family's old house, and boiled water for them to send to the field. Parents, mother, uncle, grandpa and grandpa cut the wheat of Meng's family first.

In addition to three married aunts, Meng Shi also had an unmarried sister-in-law and a younger uncle who was not yet married. They were all working out of town, and they dared not come back now.

The Meng family also has a lot of land, about [-] mu.

Every day at five o'clock in the morning, I set off to harvest wheat in the field. It was cool, and I worked for a day under the scorching sun during the day, and I didn't finish work until after ten o'clock in the evening!
Meng Shi felt that such hard-working days were far away.

It is too bitter.

Those who have really experienced it can know that under the scorching sun, they work non-stop from morning to night...

But every household in the countryside came here like this.Every time when harvesting wheat in the field, when it was hot and tiring, my parents liked to tell Meng Shi, "Every time you see if working in the field is hard, study hard, and sit in an office after you are admitted to university."

Meng Shi had heard such words since he was a child.

Meng's wheat was harvested day and night for five days.

When all the wheat was pulled back to the wheat field and piled into a stack, the sun was still scorching, and there was no sign of rain at all.

Meng Shi couldn't help guessing, did he really remember wrongly?
Or, after I was reborn, some things changed, including the weather?

The emotion of harvesting wheat is also contagious. On the first day Meng Shi's family harvested wheat, others were very puzzled, joking about why it was harvested so early.

But on the third day of harvesting at Meng Shi's house, halfway through the harvest, the other families in the village couldn't bear it anymore and began to cut the wheat.

With such a cut, the whole village will start to cut!
People say that our village must be the first to harvest wheat this year.

After the Meng family's wheat was harvested, it was time to cut the grandmother's.

Grandma's family has very little land, only ten mu of land.

In three days, only the last wheat field of less than two mu remained uncut.

At this moment, the sky changed.
