Chapter 233
The next morning, Yang Guilian and Li Xuemei got up early to cook before dawn. After all, it was the busy farming season, and breakfast was not like porridge before.

I also extravagantly took out white noodles, pasted a few pancakes with multi-grain noodles, and added my own pickles and thick millet porridge. This breakfast can be said to be very good.

When Yang Guilian was about to call Lan Xi to get up for dinner, she happened to see Lan Xi walking from the door with something in her hands, because it was still dark, Yang Guilian couldn't see clearly.

When Lan Xi approached, he saw clearly that it was two pheasants. He couldn't help but exclaimed, then looked in the direction of the gate, and when he saw the gate was closed, he patted his chest in relief.

"What's going on?" Yang Guilian couldn't help asking.

"Mom, I dug a few holes in the woods to the east yesterday, but I didn't expect that there were two pheasants inside when I went to see it this morning."

Lan Xi laughed, and shook the two chickens in her hand as if asking for credit. One chicken was still alive and flapping its wings, while the other was dead and stiff.

For Lan Xi, although there is only a little internal force in his body, he can still beat two pheasants with his hands. As for digging a hole, it is just an excuse to cover up.

"It's time to eat meat at noon. One is stewed, and the other is made into soup to nourish everyone's body."

Lan Xi had clearly arranged the funeral of the two chickens in her hand, and Yang Guilian gave Lan Xi a white look.

"It's really a heart that only knows how to eat. These two chickens can be eaten for several days."

As he said that, he also took the two chickens from Lan Xi's hand. Although the famine year had passed, the two chickens were not fat, and they were estimated to be more than three catties, so Lan Xi said they ate them all.

As for raising, Yang Guilian naturally didn't think about it. The main reason is that she has been too hard recently. This period is the busiest time of the year. Killing a hen to make up for the family members seems to be unnecessary now, these two chickens are enough.

Li Xuemei also saw two chickens over there, the smiles in her eyes couldn't contain it, and then she looked at Lan Xi, obviously she knew how the chickens got here, Lan Xi had caught some wild animals before.

Yang Guilian asked Li Xuemei to call Zhang Qing to eat, and at the same time quickly cleaned up the dead chicken.

Zhang Qing naturally saw the chicken in the kitchen, and couldn't help looking forward to today's lunch, after all, there was meat to eat.

After breakfast, it was almost dawn, and it was almost six o'clock, and the captain had already called out to go to work.

Although it has been hot in the past few days and the temperature has exceeded [-] degrees, everyone is still very happy. You must know that it is most afraid of rain when harvesting. While the weather is good now, hurry up to harvest. Only when the grain is received in the warehouse can we rest assured .

Lan Xi is also fully armed. Although it is very hot, she is still wearing long-sleeved trousers. After all, if she is cut by a wheat awn, her skin will become red and itchy, which is very uncomfortable.

Lan Xi wore a straw hat and drove a tractor to and fro. Sometimes there was not enough manpower, and she had to help with loading and unloading. Although it was hard work, it was not unbearable.

But the rest of the Zhang family is not so good. Although Lan Xi usually hunts some wild animals to help the family supplement nutrition, she is still a little thinner, her skin is darker, and the wounds on her hands are even more severe. , cut by a sickle or wheatgrass.

The Zhang family is still a little thin when they are running a small stove, not to mention other poor families who are even more thin. Every year when the busy farming season is over, some people in the village will fall ill.

After a busy farming season, everyone in the village is exhausted. Although they are physically tired, they are in a good state of mind, because they know that this year's harvest is good, and they will get a lot of food at the end of the year.

Even the people in the village have changed a lot, not to mention the educated youth, especially the newly arrived Zhou Zhiqing, who looked very weak when he first arrived.

The village also takes care of these educated youths, they are not forced to work, they can be chosen, but the boys basically go to the fields to harvest wheat, and the girls also go to the wheat fields.

Zhou Zhiqing, who had just arrived, passed out directly in the wheat field on the second day of harvesting. If there were no people around him, he would probably have been lying there that day.

After that, I woke up and stopped doing so much work. I only worked for half a day in a day, and naturally I only got half of the centimeters.

Even so, after the busy farming season, Zhou Yiqing's whole body was tanned, and his whole body was even weaker. His whole body was in a skinny state, his forehead was sunken, his eyes were so big that he couldn't take the frame of his glasses, because his body Tired, and the whole person looks depressed.

Contrary to him, the female educated youth who just arrived from Songliu Village next door passed out on the first day of work, but persisted until the end of the busy farming season, and her overall condition became better and better.

People in the village say that although two people are different men and women, but in reverse, a male educated youth is not as capable as a female educated youth.

This matter is also the gossip of the villagers after dinner. After all, there is no gossip to talk about recently, so I just talked about it here.

Although the harvest is over, Lanxi's work is not over yet. All the mature wheat has been transported to the wheat field. The people in the wheat field are working overtime day and night, just to load the wheat into the warehouse as soon as possible.

The stone rolls continuously on the wheat field, and the wind blows up the ears of wheat, blows away the husks, and leaves behind plump grains of wheat. The straw is piled up in piles and piles, and children can't help but climb up and down again. climb down.

Lan Xi still needs to transport the harvested wheat into the warehouse, and the tractors are running non-stop for a while, so Lan Xi also goes to work non-stop, but this is all centimeters.

When all the wheat was sent to the warehouse, the whole village breathed a sigh of relief. This year was also considered a good year. Not only did it not rain during the harvest, but also the weather was good this year. People privately said that God was helping them.

This year, the production capacity of wheat per mu has reached 350 catties, and the production capacity of some large ones has reached [-] catties per mu.

The current wheat is not like the later generations. The production capacity per mu can easily exceed [-] jin. In this era, this is already considered a high yield. The main reason is that this year's weather is good. It can be said that the annual weather conditions have a relatively large impact on wheat.

Not only Zhangjia Village, but also several nearby villages have heard that this year is a bumper harvest year, and the harvest process has been advanced two days this year, and the speed and efficiency have also improved a lot.

Now the village is talking about when to pay the public grain. The so-called summer harvest wheat grains are returned to the warehouse, and the farmers whip and urge the horses to deliver grain.

Nowadays, [-]% of all food is sold to the state according to [-]% and [-]%; the remaining [-]% is redistributed in the villages.

But this year is a good year, everyone should be able to get more points.
