A Story of a Little Village Girl Getting Rich

Chapter 21
On this day, Xiaosi was basking in the sun in the yard, and Miao Da and Miao Xiaocao poured some bath water on the Chinese cabbage in the field, and if it grows, they will cut it back and pickle it, the vegetable for the winter.

The days were getting shorter and shorter, and in the middle of the afternoon, Miao Da said that he would help Xiaosi back to his room.Xiao Si was a little embarrassed, and when he was helped out in the morning, Miao Da was sweating all over, and it took him so much effort to get him out.Going back this time, he didn't want to make him tired.

"Uncle, give me a stick, and I'll go in by myself." Xiaosi sat and looked at the distance from the room, but it was very far away for him now.

"How about that, I'll help you." Miao Da stretched out his hand to help him.

Miao Xiaocao walked over, passed Miao Da, and reached out to help Xiao Si.

"Okay, I'll help."

Miao Da thought that this girl was not married yet, so she couldn't get close to this strange man.He was about to open his mouth to shout, but when he opened his mouth, he couldn't make a sound, and he stretched out his hand, but he didn't hit Xiaocao's shoulder.Finally, after seeing Miao Xiaocao supporting Xiaosi, he closed his mouth and withdrew his hand.

"You look so light, why are you so heavy?" In Miao Xiaocao's eyes, Xiaosi was weak.These words were also the first words between them since Miao Xiaocao looked at Xiao Si in a daze in the morning.

Xiaosi's entire center of gravity rests on Miao Xiaocao, so it is naturally heavy.

"I've been lying here for so many days. Although I'm on the recliner today, I'm still lying down and have no strength." Xiaosi's voice became so weak along with his body.

"Walk well." Miao Xiaocao called out in a low voice when Xiaosi's head rested on her shoulder, feeling numb and her shoulder trembling.

Xiaosi pouted again and blinked his eyes. With this posture, if Miao Xiaocao said one more word, tears would definitely come down.

When they arrived in the room, the bed was not made yet, so they helped Xiaosi to the edge of the table and sat down.

"Sit down, I'll make the bed." Miao Xiaocao casually moved the straw under the bed.He took out another torn quilt, put it on the grass, and moved the quilt again.

Some cotton seedlings can be grown at home, but the cotton seeds are hard to separate from the cotton, and it is really troublesome to do it by hand.Thanks to Mrs. Miao Xiaocao, she was afraid of the cotton harvest season.The land at home is limited, and I dare not plant too much cotton when the seedlings are too large. If I plant too much, there will be less land for growing food.So it takes only a few years to plant a few catties of cotton, and then send them to the home of the cotton pluckers.So it takes a few years for the family to have a new quilt.

Rural areas can fully utilize resources.After the rice is harvested in autumn, some clean straw will be dried in the sun, spread on the bed, and then covered with quilts, which are very soft and breathable.

After the rice is taken back and dried in the sun, the various grades of rice are separated by an autocratic windmill.There is an outlet on both sides and the back of the windmill. There is a funnel on the top. Pour the rice into it, and then shake the handle of the windmill. The shriveled rice.Behind is the rice leaves that come out together with the rice.

After the rice is 100% dry and solid, it goes into the granary.The shriveled rice is then dried, put into a bag of pillow case, and then the bag is sewn up. This rice pillow is very comfortable to sleep on.Some also use the rice husk from rice milling as pillows.In the distant era of seedlings and grasses, farmers were very happy to have straw as a bed and rice husks as pillows.

Spread the quilt, spread the quilt, spread the quilt, and then bring the quilt and pillow.

It was all very fluffy on the bed.Appears much taller than before.

Xiaosi has been watching Miao Xiaocao busy to and fro.

"Why don't you sit for a while and go to bed after dinner and wash?" Miao Xiaocao asked.

Little Four nodded: "Well, good."

He was still immersed in the faint fragrance of Miao Xiaocao's hair that he had just smelled, it smelled really good.

It was not so dark yet, Miao Xiaocao went to the kitchen to cook, Xiaosi sat in the room alone, had nothing to do, just looked around.I have lived in this room for so many days, and this is the first time I have looked at this room.
