Travel through the farmhouse leisurely

Chapter 107 Chen Wenxue's Marriage Choice (1)
In the face of the overly enthusiastic and excited Lizheng and the villagers, both Chen Xuewen and his son rejected their kindness, claiming that they were ashamed, that they were just a small scholar, and could not be praised by the villagers, and they would wait until the day of the middle school or even pass the exam. On the day of Jinshi, there will be a banquet to celebrate at that time, and it will be lively, inviting all the folks to come to drink and celebrate together, this time it will be forgotten!
Seeing that their mother and son had the same opinion, Li Zheng had no choice but to give up. After all, this Chen Xuewen was not a villager of their Shanglin Village for generations, but just moved here suddenly a few years ago.Li Zheng wasn't very familiar with them either, so he didn't force too much, and just conveyed his feelings.

In the evening, after the villagers dispersed, Widow Zheng organized a table of food and wine at her home, and invited Lin Xiaoqiao's family to have dinner. For a long time, Lin Xiaoqiao's family has taken care of their mother and child many times, treating them like a family.

After everyone had a happy dinner, Lin Xiaoqiao finally found the time to congratulate her elder brother Xuewen in person, and gave her the gift she had already prepared.

This time, Lin Xiaoqiao gave Brother Xuewen a gift made by herself. It was a small sailboat made of wood chips, with four big crooked characters engraved on it: "Smooth sailing." I wish her brother Xuewen all the best and smooth sailing from now on.

In fact, she also thought about going to the town to buy some gifts in the shop, but after searching for a few days, she couldn't find anything suitable, so she made this by herself. She thought that brother Xuewen would not I despise her crude and rough work, so I should be able to understand my little intentions.

Sure enough, after Chen Xuewen received the not-so-good-looking sailboat from Lin Xiaoqiao, he treasured it and put it away, and repeatedly claimed that he liked this gift very much, and would definitely treasure it well, which made Lin Xiaoqiao feel sad. The bridge was stunned for a while...

In late September, it has entered the season of late autumn, and the sky has begun to get a little cold. Lin Xiaoqiao has already put on the thin padded jacket that Li Shi made for her this year.

The corn planted by Tou Lin Erniu in the field in early summer has already grown and is almost ready for harvest.

Lin Xiaoqiao's family has been busy harvesting corn in the field recently. This time, Lin Xiaoqiao's sisters also went to the field to help Lin Erniu and his wife harvest corn.

Because this time, the two brothers Dalang and Erlang didn't have a vacation, and they had to go to school every day to study, so there was obviously not enough manpower to collect corn.

But every evening after school, the two brothers would still take the initiative to come to the field to help with some farm work.

Lin Xiaoqiao was real this time, and personally experienced the experience of a farmer working in the fields. She and Lin Xiaoxi were assigned to break corn cobs because they were too small to do heavy work. .

The weather is not hot now, and the sun is not as fierce as it was when the rice was harvested in summer, so working in the field will not be very tiring. Since Lin Xiaoqiao traveled to this farm, he has never really worked in the field. Farm work, so this time when she came to the field for the first time, she felt very fresh when she started working.

At first, she and Lin Xiaoxi were able to earnestly break off the corn cobs one by one, but the heat dissipated within two hours. And it became sore and sore.

The novelty was gone, and Lin Xiaoqiao didn't have any thoughts, and started to work in a serious manner. I saw her breaking the corn cobs one by one, and breaking the corncobs one by one, according to her own mood. On the contrary, it was my sister. Lin Xiaoxi has been patiently and conscientiously helping her parents with work.

At this moment, Lin Xiaoqiao was tearing off the corn cobs, humming a little song, and like a lively little rabbit, shuttled among the corn stalks taller than her, quite leisurely. At ease, enjoy yourself.

Lin Erniu and Li Shi looked at their little girl, who didn't seem to be working at all, but seemed to come to play, and didn't say anything, but looked at Lin Xiaoqiao's cheerful Jiner, the two of them are also happy and happy.

Li Shi and Lin Erniu not only have to break the corn cobs, but also pull out the broken corn stalks, then tie them with ropes and put them aside, so that they can be taken home and burned as firewood. .

The husband and wife both did physical work, and they were not like Lin Xiaoqiao and the sisters when they worked leisurely, so they were all sweating after a while.

Lin Xiaoqiao saw his parents working so hard, and his sister breaking the corn cobs seriously, but he was the only one who was half-heartedly tossing about, and suddenly felt a little ashamed in his heart.

So, she also started to put away her playful nature, and began to help her parents with their work wholeheartedly.

Lin Xiaoqiao's family had been busy for four days before collecting all the corn from the ten-acre field. The widow Zheng, the wife of Chen Xuewen next door, sometimes went to help out in the field, but she was obviously not a farmer. , hands and feet are not as agile as Lin Xiaoqiao!
Although Widow Zheng didn't help Sha Zi very much, Lin Xiaoqiao's family still thanked her from the bottom of their hearts.

As for the Lin Xiaoqiao sisters, after taking back the corn for four days, they were almost disabled, especially Lin Xiaoqiao, whose two thin arms were so painful that they couldn't lift them up at all, and they couldn't even eat with chopsticks. There is a problem, and now there are three or two more scratches on her delicate face.

It is inevitable to get scratches on the cheeks after spending all day breaking corn in the cornfields. This kind of scratches are actually not serious, and they will heal on their own after a few days of recuperation.

However, Li Shi and Lin Erniu looked at the scars on the sisters' little faces, which were scratched by the leaves of the corn stalks, and felt very distressed. They said that they would not let the sisters go to help in the fields in the future.

Now, in the yard of Lin Xiaoqiao's house, there are many tall piles of corn cobs that have just been taken back. The ground paved with bluestone slabs is also covered with corn, and the corn stalks piled up in the corner are also piled up. It is almost a hill, and there is a gratifying scene of a bumper harvest everywhere.

Looking at the piles of golden corn, Lin Xiaoqiao temporarily forgot the soreness in her two arms, because the greedy worm in her stomach was hooked out again at this time, it can only be said that this Lin Xiaoqiao Wherever the bridge goes, it does not lose its true nature as a foodie.

Think of those golden pastries made of cornmeal, such as corn hair cakes, cornmeal dumplings, cornmeal pancakes, corn buns, corn muffins...

Lin Xiaoqiao's saliva was about to flow down, so she immediately found Lin Erniu and asked him to grind out ten catties of cornmeal as soon as possible. She couldn't wait to eat delicious food.
