reborn peasant mother

Chapter 70

Shanzi and Erya followed the production team to harvest wheat for a season.The children in the countryside have been in charge of the family for a long time. Although they are not used to farm work, the two children are free to do it. His hands were covered with black ash, his face was also dirty, and there were red marks on his hands and necks from the wheat awns.

Wheat during the harvest period will have "wheat jaundice", that is, some black and gray dirt will be stained on the ears and stalks of the wheat, especially when it rains before the wheat harvest this year.This thing is different from ordinary dust. It is slippery and irritating, making it especially uncomfortable to touch.

Er Ya's hands were covered with jaundice, and the place where the blisters were broken was also there, which made Feng Yujiang's heart ache for a while.She fetched a basin of warm water, asked the two children to wash their hands first, and then asked Erya to take a shower first.With this dirty body, you can't eat without washing it first.

"You two don't go tomorrow. Mom has a rest for the night. I'll go tomorrow after a rest." During dinner, Feng Yujiang said.If the family really does not have to go to work to harvest the wheat, other people will be dissatisfied, and the production team will show up when they distribute the wheat, and they will definitely deduct money.There is not enough wheat for this big family, so this work must be done.

Shanzi said, "I'll go tomorrow, I can do it. Second sister, don't ask her to go."

"I can do it, so I'll go too. I've been squatting at school for the past few months and I haven't done much work, and the calluses on my hands are gone, so I just need to grind." Erya said hurriedly.

Mother Zhong drank two sips of soup, pouted her lips and said, "Miss Qianjin from the city, you are so delicate! After cutting wheat for a day, you will get scorching foam on your hands, and you won't be afraid of being laughed at if you tell it. You don't pinch horizontal weeds vertically."

Horizontal grass is not pinched vertically, which is a local saying that jokes about people who are lazy and don't work.It has the same meaning as "don't help the oil bottle even if it's poured", except that the former sentence mainly refers to the household work, while the latter sentence refers to a lazy woman who doesn't worry about housework.

Erya was uncomfortable hearing this, and as soon as she put the chopsticks down, she planned to rebel, Feng Yujiang quickly gave Erya a wink, and stopped her.Like Zhong's mother's temperament, the result of Erya's rebelliousness is not always scolded and beaten?A few words of scolding at a light level, and pinching and twisting at a serious level, I don't know how this mother of Zhong's heart grows.

"Go tomorrow, you two, you have to know how hard it is to work in the fields, so you know how to study hard." Feng Yujiang said, "Erya, tomorrow mom will find you a handkerchief, and you will wrap it around the handle of the sickle. Don't grind your hands. If you don't look for your father's cotton gloves, put them on. Not to mention your hands, a wheat mouth, old farmers have to grind a few blisters on their hands, except for those who don't need to work. "

The last sentence probably made Zhong's mother taboo. She hadn't been to the ground for several years, but she definitely couldn't bear others being idle.In her opinion, Feng Yujiang was too used to treating children like this.She put down her chopsticks and straightened her face.

"It's destined to be a job, so you'll have to work hard, and the rest will be empty. People like you, who work lightly, won't be able to keep up with the hot ones in the future."

I can't eat this meal anymore.Feng Yujiang saw the anger on the faces of Shanzi and Erya, and simply put down his chopsticks.

"You two, fight for mom, no matter what, find a way out for yourself, the way out is found by yourself, who is born with a low life?"

Feng Yujiang glanced at Zhong Jipeng, who was buried in his meal, and said, "Our mothers will go to the field to harvest wheat tomorrow, and no one in the family will work. This year, there is no wheat to eat! You are off work, don't eat Qing is waiting to be a master, an adult and a child. After a day, he is exhausted. When he comes home, there is no one to burn his mouth. I think he really has to wait to eat shit. Stretch out your hand to get some food, can you die of exhaustion? Go out and find the sisters and girls in the village to judge, is there such a thing?"
