peasant family

Chapter 34

Originally, they were going to dig the fields, but Lu said that when planting sorghum, they could dig the fields and plant them at the same time.

The sesame fields have to be dug, and the sorghum should be planted first.

It took three days to plant sorghum, and another five days to dig the fields.

Sesame seeds are not planted in the ground one by one, they are scattered in the ground in handfuls, and the fields are dug out. It is better to scatter sesame seeds than to scatter them in hard fields.

After spreading the sesame seeds on the ground, dig them with a hoe to dig the exposed sesame seeds into the soil.

Once the sesame seeds are planted, half of them will be gone in June.

The old lady Han and Han Zhengbei's mother and son only came back from the Liu family at night when they were sleeping. During this time, they had been helping the Liu family with work, harvesting all the beans, wheat, and peas in the Liu family, and planting sesame seeds and sorghum for them.

During this period of time, Liu Shuifu's illness was completely cured, and Liu Zhongtian's feet also recovered, but there was a little pain when walking.

Because Han Zhengbei and Mrs. Han were helping with the work, he used his foot injury to sneak, rape and play tricks during this period of time, so he didn't go to work. He just cooked at home and fed the pigs!
After planting sesame and sorghum, Han Zhengbei and the others went home.

Mrs. Han was so tired that she was worse than a dog these days, and she lost a lot of weight.

Including Han Zhengbei as well.

When Mrs. Lu thought of their mother and son helping Han Xinghua with work, she felt very unhappy. For this reason, she had a big fight with Han Zhengbei and almost got into a fight. If the whole family was not at home, the two of them would have fought superb.

At night.

The night sky was full of stars, and the cool wind was blowing. Shen Qing and the others sat in the courtyard with a chair to enjoy the cool.

On summer nights, there are more mosquitoes, buzzing in the ears, and flying to the body from time to time, sucking a mouthful of blood, even with a cattail fan, it is useless.

"Oh, these stinky mosquitoes are crazy, they bite me again and again, and my arms are full of bumps!" Han Yunqiao complained and scratched her arms with her hands, "The more you scratch, the more itchy, everything is fine in summer, just like this Mosquitos and flies are very annoying!"

Shen Qing had discovered early on that the Han family did not have mosquito coils for fuming flies.

We all rely on willpower to fight against flies.

"Second brother, don't worry, I'll look for wormwood in the village tomorrow, wormwood can drive away annoying flies." Shen Qing's voice was sweet and soft.

After Han Yunqiao heard it, a smile appeared on her face: "Sister Qing'er, how do you know that wormwood is used to smoke flies?"

Shen Qing chuckled, and said with some embarrassment: "My mother told me that before my father didn't care about us, every summer, these nasty flies would come to drink my blood, and I was bitten by flies every day, my mother After inquiring about many methods, I finally heard that wormwood can drive away flies!"

"So it is like this!" Han Yunqiao said: "Sister Qing'er, if you have nothing to do tomorrow, look for wormwood nearby!" Their home is at the foot of the mountain, and wormwood is easy to find.

Shen Qing nodded again and again: "Okay, leave the matter of finding wormwood to me!"

Han Yunjing's eyes fell gently on Shen Qing's body, looking at Shen Qing's sweet little face, his heart felt soft and tender, as if all his troubles were gone.

Everyone sat together and had a conversation. Han Yunqiao went to the main room to drink a bowl of herbal tea and then came out. Looking at the dilapidated thatched cottage, he thought that the rain had damaged the thatched cottage during this period, making it uninhabitable and had to be repaired.

Turning his head, he said to Han Yunjing: "Third brother, tomorrow we will go to the mountains to cut down some trees and come back to repair the roof of the thatched house. During this time, we have been busy with our feet on the ground, so we didn't repair it for you. Now we have time , let’s fix it!”
