My wife is a squeamish bag

Chapter 302 Sweeping wheat is too difficult
After the wheat harvest, An Beibei lay at home for a whole day before recovering.

Perhaps it was because of the good harvest this year, and the fact that she gritted her teeth and persisted until the harvest was complete. Qi Lu was very tolerant of her these days, even though she lay down all day and didn't say anything.

Back to the boring days again, originally I wanted Huo'er to help her send the message again, but the little guy disappeared early in the morning, and he didn't know where to wander.

It's nothing for her to dry at home, and she doesn't have the strength to pick straws, so she simply ran to the field to look at the bean plants.

Not bad, the pods are green and swollen.

Compared with Qi Zhang's side, the pods in her small plot are obviously much more fruity, and each one is full.

Thinking of the upcoming harvest, An Beibei's mood soared.

After seeing the bean seedling field, she took a look at the rice in the field, and now all of them have eared, but there is a big difference from the heavy rice ears as imagined.

It's no wonder that most people in ancient times were always struggling with food and clothing. With this output, after a hard year's harvest, there is probably not much left after paying the grain tax.

It was only then that An Beibei found out that the food tax for military households was really high enough to doubt life.

And if you don't pay enough, you have to pay a heavy fine.

Fortunately, only wheat and rice are collected, so they will eat multi-grain rice or multi-grain steamed buns all year round, and they cry when they think about it.

It's a pity that there is no Grandpa Yuan in this era, and no one can save everyone from suffering.

Maybe she could try it?
Hmm... Although the hybridization experiment is cumbersome, the feasibility is quite high.

That's it!

Discuss with Erlang when he comes back.

An Beibei thought happily, turned around and rushed home, walked a few steps, and heard Du Dongyun's talking and laughing voice from the drying yard at the entrance of the village, thinking that she hadn't seen Du Dongyun for a long time, she simply Turn around and walk towards the entrance of the village.

"Yo, Erlang's family is here!"

An Beibei is now integrated into Wangwangshan Village, and everyone will say hello to each other when they see each other.

The drying yard in Wangshan Village is not very big. There are almost seven or eight families drying wheat in the drying yard, and each family covers an area of ​​no more than [-] to [-] square meters.

Because the drying yard is not big, but there are many people in the village, so when it comes to the harvest season, the drying yard has to wait in line, and there must be someone guarding the drying yard, otherwise it is easy to be eaten by sparrows.

Qi's house is at the end of the village, it's too far away, it's really not cost-effective to carry things to the drying yard, so I only use two big dustpans and a small dustpan to put them in the courtyard for drying.

Du Dongyun was on the drying ground at the moment, seeing An Beibei hurriedly greeted her with a smile.

"Thanks to your Erlang and Uncle Bao for making this thresher!

At this time in previous years, the drying grounds were all wheat straws, and the total area was only so wide, and there was not much drying in total.

Moreover, every household has to use the drying yard to thresh, and sometimes they can only hammer one by one at home with a stick, and it is unknown how many wheat grains will be lost every year.

This year is good, there is a thresher to thresh the grains at home, and then get them to dry in the drying yard. In less than two days, the wheat will be harvested!

Even if a storm comes now, we are not afraid. "

The other villagers smiled and echoed after hearing this: "It's not a big deal. Apart from the drying yard, our family also uses a dustpan to dry it. Today, we can collect it all in one day. Threshing and drying for another two days, it's over!"

"Let me tell you, we don't need to rush to harvest next year. We will just wait for the grains to be fully ripe and directly thresh them in the ground. Anyway, we are not afraid of a storm now."

"To tell you the truth, I think so too, but if the straw is not harvested in time, it will probably get wet."

"Hey, what's the matter, anyway, it's just a firewood, just dry it after getting wet, and I'm not afraid of it getting moldy."

"..."

The villagers talked to each other, laughed and praised, An Beibei's face was almost frozen with laughter, but her heart was full of joy.

Sometimes, helping others is more satisfying than helping yourself.

If so, her hybrid rice experiment can really succeed and solve the problem of food and clothing for most people in this world, it will be a worthwhile trip.

No, the biggest gain of this trip should be her family Erlang, hehe!

I wonder if Erlang is thinking about himself at this moment?

An Beibei looked up at the sky, and was suddenly taken aback, "Sister Yun, why does it feel like it's going to rain today?"

"Oh, it's not a big deal, no, I have to harvest the wheat quickly, otherwise the rain will be terrible!"

Du Dongyun has a fiery personality, she moves as soon as she speaks, and when the others saw that her house started to collect, they hesitated for a while, and then followed suit.

He Miao's father who guards the drying yard next door is a skinny old man who is unmoved when he sees Du Dongyun harvesting wheat.

"Uncle He, you won't accept it?"

"Wait a little longer, my wheat will be able to pay the tax after a little more drying."

When Du Dongyun heard the words, she didn't force herself, she took out the basket and broom.

"Sister Yun, let me help you."

An Beibei couldn't stand on the sidelines, or turn around and leave, so she had to bite the bullet and push forward.

Du Dongyun smiled heartily, "That's a good idea! Are you here to push or sweep?"

An Beibei glanced at the wooden rake in her hand that was not sure whether it was the same model as Marshal Canopy, then looked at the broom on the other side, and decisively chose the broom that at least didn't look unfamiliar.

"Let me sweep."

An Beibei took the broom with a smile and started sweeping.

In fact, she once swept the floor at Qi's house, but she used a big broom made of bamboo branches.

With a wave of that thing, it has the momentum to sweep away thousands of troops.

So, she swept and swept, and started playing, and she had a great time playing.

All that was left on the ground were traces like big pictures.

When Qi Lu saw it, he was immediately furious, but as soon as he rushed up, An Beibei was confronted with a big broom, who ate a mouthful of ashes, and almost got his face scratched by the thin bamboo branch.

Since then, brooms have been taboo for An Beibei.

The ground of the drying yard is actually a flat dam paved with dense hard stone slabs.

It looks flat at first glance, but upon closer inspection, there are small pits and bags everywhere, which is completely incomparable with modern cement and asphalt floors.

An Beibei swept over with a broom, and when she looked back, there were still many remaining wheat grains on the ground.

Sweep again, um, it seems to be swept clean, if you ignore the wheat grains stuck in the pit bag or in the gap.

Helpless, An Beibei had no choice but to continue to sweep back, and some even had to pull them out with their hands.

Uh... it's so hard to sweep the wheat!
Du Dongyun collected a wheat pile, looked back abruptly, and found that An Beibei was squatting on the ground and picking up the scattered wheat grains with her hands. She only swept a small corner behind her, and she didn't know what to say for a while.

"Beibei, the grains of wheat are small, so it's normal that you can't clean them in one sweep. You should sweep the first time first, and then sister-in-law will clean it again."

"Actually, that's what I was thinking too, hehe."

An Beibei sneered a little blushingly.
