Farm girl is busy making money

Chapter 17
Chapter No.17 The Autumn Harvest
Because there are nine children in the family, only two go to school, and the eldest and third children will teach their younger siblings to read in private, so six-year-old He Xiaotang can also know a few simple words.

After He Xiaotang said happily, He Qinzheng was stunned.

He Qinzheng frowned and walked around the word "Ben" on the ground three times, and finally came to a conclusion, "This is not a word, you silly girl is trying to fool me!"

"I think you can't afford to lose, you're being stupid! That's fine." He Lanshan already basically understood that the kid in front of her was impatient, so she deliberately provoked him, and smoothed the word on the gravel floor with her foot.

"Who are you saying can't afford to lose? Then what word do you say, he can't be three cows!" He Qinzheng was so angry that his neck was red all the way to his ears, and then he pulled He Lanshan's clothes, "What word do you read?" .”

"Ben, that's the idiot's flat-tongue sound." He Lanshan glanced at the boy contemptuously, and seeing his unconvinced face, said again: "Don't admit defeat, if you don't believe me, you can ask him tomorrow. Let your husband fulfill his promise."

He Lanshan threw away the stone in her hand, clapped her hands and went back to the second room.

He Qinzheng's younger brother, He Qinrong, looked at his elder brother with sideways eyes, and said in the same sarcasm: "Brother, can you do it, and you lost to a stinky fool, why don't you go tell grandma to go to school instead."

"I'll fuck you." He Qinzheng kicked He Qinrong's ass, and the two brothers scuffled.

There are many children in the He family, and fights are common. If the adults separate them, they will be busy with their own affairs.When He Qinrong lost the fight, he sat on the ground and wailed loudly, and was yelled at by Mrs. He several times before being carried back to the room by Mrs. Hong.

Three days after He Jinyi left home, Mrs. He couldn't hold back anymore.

At the dining table in the kitchen, she coughed a few times first, then her wrinkled eyes were fixed on Zhao Shuangxi's head, seeing her shaking with cloth strips all day long made her brain ache.

"Second daughter-in-law, after raising so many chickens for so many days and eating so many chickens, I'm afraid the terminal disease will be cured. The autumn harvest will be tomorrow, and you will cook the meals. The third daughter-in-law doesn't want to eat these pigs."

Mrs. He said and looked at the food on the table. The boiled sweet potatoes were so rotten that they almost turned into mashed sweet potatoes.

Today's meal was cooked by Mrs. Hong from the third room. Mrs. Hu refused to do it for five or six days, so she asked Mrs. Hong to do it. Mrs. Hong fully agreed, but it's a pity that those who are poor at cooking can be rated as the last in the village. one.

As soon as Mrs. Hu from the big house heard that the autumn harvest was coming, she rushed ahead of Zhao Shuangxi and said, "Mother, why don't you let me cook?" Compared to harvesting the autumn harvest and going to the fields in the sun to harvest rice, working in the kitchen is much easier. But no more.

Mrs. He gave her a blank look, and said cursingly: "It's too late to die, I'll turn my eyes away after eating your meal, the autumn harvest is a competition with God, I don't have to let you take it easy."

"Then I'll do it." Zhao Shuangxi also agreed. The autumn harvest is a big event in the family.

If it rains when the rice is being harvested, the harvest will definitely be damaged, so we have to rush to harvest in the next few days.
On the contrary, Mrs. He was not happy. Thinking of her five chickens that died in vain, she clenched her palms tightly and swallowed a sigh of aggrieved breath, "The autumn harvest is tight. Except for Qin Zheng and Qin Hua, these little ones are all Go and hunt pigweed for me. I’ll tell you what I said before, if you don’t kill enough, you’ll have nothing to eat.”

"Yes, grandma." The people at the children's table said in unison.

He Lanshan and Zhao Shuangxi went back to the house after dinner. Zhao Shuangxi handed her the sandbag that was made. The sandbag was made of two rags, one side was red and the other was blue.It is stuffed with soft sand so that it won't hurt when it hits someone. Zhao Shuangxi's stitches are so dense that not a single bit of sand leaked out.

"Thank you mother, I'm going to play." He Lanshan tossed the sandbag back and forth in her hands, and was about to go out to find He Qinmao and give him a sandbag as a bribe.

The door of the second room is the big yard of the He family, and the corner of the yard is the chicken coop.

Hu was spreading chaff beside the chicken pen with a cold face, and her husband He Jinfu was also leaning on the fence of the chicken pen with one hand, and the couple were talking.

"I think mother is biased. If you prefer the second brother, you will make trouble. The second brother and sister have been idle for six or seven days. They don't have to go to the fields for the autumn harvest. Why doesn't such a good thing happen to me!"

"You want to be smashed in the head by your mother... Ouch, just be gentle." He Jinfu was pinched by the soft flesh around his waist, and he jumped in pain. When Hu let go of his hand, he said again: "You just Let's be content, Qin Hua hasn't even studied without the money earned by the second brother!"

"It's not just us Qin Hua, isn't it also Qin Zheng? If you want me to say, it's because of Qin Feng's bad luck that the matter of studying fell on us." Hu said and became more worried, "We Qin Hua's studies have always been better than Qin Zheng's, and now that he has won Tongsheng, he has to spend more money, how can this family afford two scholars!"

"Didn't I listen to you when I went to the town to sell vegetables and eggs all these years, why don't you quietly save some, what else do you want?" He Jinfu couldn't listen to Hu's chatter, and felt that his wife was just talking.

"You also go out to find an errand. Like the third child, you put all your money in your pockets, your son and daughter-in-law are raised by their parents, and you don't have to worry about the farm work at home... Cough cough," Hu said, full of resentment As he spoke, he saw He Lanshan standing aside, and hurriedly pushed He Jinfu to silence him.

He Jinfu didn't take it seriously, and pointed to He Lanshan, "What does a child know! Besides, we didn't say anything."

Mrs. Hu glared at this careless person angrily.

"Uncle, uncle, have you seen my third brother?" He Lanshan raised a smiling face and thought, this family is so single-minded, everyone has their own calculations.It's just that my parents were exploited so honestly, and in the end they still felt that the second room took advantage.

"Maybe play spinning top under the locust tree." He Jinfu pointed the way to He Lanshan.

He Lanshan walked towards the big pagoda tree in the village, pretending that she didn't hear what the couple said.

Under the locust tree, a group of children gathered, some lying on their stomachs and some sitting, all blushing and shouting thickly, "Turn around... win him, win him."

Sure enough, there was He Qinmao's figure. Two wooden tops were spinning on the ground, and the smaller one stopped first. mine."

"Third brother, it's for you." He Lanshan handed the red and blue sandbag to He Qinmao.

The eyes of all the children beside him were shining, and they looked at He Qinmao enviously.

"Sandbag, it's a new sandbag. Da Niu's dirty and old one is still not for rent. Maomao, didn't you say that the stinky sister your mother bought is not good, why don't you give it to me, I want it That sandbag."

"Fuck you, my mother's baby is very good, so she won't be your younger sister." He Qinmao pushed away the talking child, holding this pretty sandbag in his hand, it made He Lanshan much more pleasing to the eye.

He threw the small spinning top to He Lanshan, and said awkwardly: "I don't take your stuff for nothing, this is for you."
