Farmer’s Wife Has Magic Skills

  Chapter 157 157. Cut the wheat

  In the afternoon, the villagers cleaned up, and the idle people in every household went out to cut wheat with sickles.

  During the drought here, everyone carried water to irrigate and saved most of the crops. Although 40% of the wheat in the wheat field was empty shells, it was also a good thing that 60% of the wheat could be recovered.

  The summer after the rain is no longer so hot, even if it is hot, it also contains some humidity, and walking in the fields is not so uncomfortable.

  Chu Qingzhi's family put on straw hats one after another, and walked into the wheat field.

  Li Qingyu refused to let Chu Qingzhi do farm work, she was reluctant to let her daughter have delicate skin and tender flesh, and let her rest at home.

  Chu Qingzhi actually didn't want to do it either, but she followed to the edge of the wheat field.

  The hat that Tang Jinghong made for her was damaged by an arrow, and now she is wearing the hat at home, very rustic.

  Standing on the edge of the wheat field, she looked up and saw that the wheat was turning yellow now, and the summer wind stirred waves of wheat waves, which were ups and downs, very beautiful.

In this era, rice is the staple food. Of course, many people can’t afford white rice, and flour is the supplement. Therefore, there are many people who grow wheat. Generally, once the wheat is harvested, it will be sold to the rice grain store in the county after a few days in the sun. Wen Yijin.

  Zhan Hongjun, Bao Linjiang, and Ning Yuting came to the edge of the wheat field together. As rich children who grew up in the city, none of them had personally experienced the hardships of harvesting wheat, but they knew how hard it was when they saw everyone sweating and dripping into the soil.

  Tong Yujie also came to the edge of the wheat field, holding his precious sword in his hand, even in this field, he still looked chic, "Aren't you going to help?"

   Bao Linjiang turned his eyes to him, "You eat and drink for free, and I didn't see what you were doing?"

  Tong Yujie scratched his ears and stopped talking. Chu Qingzhi was not easy to deal with, and her two apprentices were like protective calf, so it was not easy to deal with either.

  Chu Qingzhi ignored the few people. Seeing so many wheat, she suddenly had an idea in her heart.

  She asked the two young apprentices, "I'm going to the mountains, will you go?"

  Zhan Hongjun and Bao Linjiang said in unison, "Go."

  Chu Qingzhi waved to Chu Qingning, "Qingning, come here."

   Then she said, "Father, I have something to do. If you can't do it, you can hire someone. You don't need to save money."

  Li Qingyu replied, "We know, go and do your work."

  Chu Qingning knew that Chu Qingzhi must be talking to her about medical skills, so she quickly handed the sickle to Li Qingyu, and walked towards Chu Qingzhi, "Fifth Sister, why are you going?"

  Chu Qingzhi led everyone back, "Go to the mountains to find something."

  Zhan Hongjun was curious, "Master, what are you looking for?"

  Bao Linjiang was also very curious, looking at Chu Qingzhi, one black and one blue eyes filled with curiosity.

  Chu Qingzhi made a fool of herself, "You will know in a while."

  Back at home, everyone took baskets, carrying baskets, small hoes, chopping knives and other tools, and followed Chu Qingzhi to the mountains.

  Chu Qingning was a little scared, "Fifth Sister, there are wild beasts in the mountains, will it be dangerous?"

  Tong Yujie also followed, he said, "I will protect you."

  Chu Qingning looked at him and said without hesitation, "You can't beat my Fifth Sister."

   "Uh..." Tong Yujie got stuck, "I haven't fought her yet, how do you know?"

  Bao Linjiang laughed, "I really want to find someone to compete with. How about we play a game later? If you lose, you don't have to pester my master."

  Zhan Hongjun didn't think it was a big deal to watch the excitement, "Little Baoyu, is it true that you told your uncle that you know martial arts?"

  Bao Linjiang gritted his teeth, "Zhan Hongjun, I will fight Tong Yujie first, and then I will fight you. I will make you kneel and beg for mercy!"

  Zhan Hongjun said indifferently, "You still knelt down and begged for mercy! You are not afraid of being abused, just come here."

   Ning Yuting, who was walking at the end, suddenly said, "Aren't you doctors?"

  Zhan Hongjun said, "Doctors can't practice martial arts? If I didn't know martial arts, my family would definitely not let me go out and travel. Fortunately, I have good martial arts, otherwise I would become a canary."

   Bao Linjiang clicked his tongue, "Can you stop putting gold on your face like this?"

  Zhan Hongjun raised the hatchet in his hand, "What I said is the truth!"

  Listening to the conversation of several people, Chu Qingning couldn't help but clenched Chu Qingzhi's sleeves tightly. It sounded like everyone had quite a background.

  Chu Qingzhi patted Chu Qingning's arm, "It's okay, Fourth Sister, I will protect you."

  Chu Qingning nodded.

  As several people spoke, they had already entered the mountain.

  Bunches of sunlight shot down from the dense branches, casting many light golden spots on the ground.

  Chu Qingning asked in a low voice, "Fifth Sister, what are we looking for now?"

  Chu Qingzhi released her spiritual consciousness, looked around, and replied at the same time, "You can pick whatever is useful, but the core thing to look for is hops."

  Yes, she wants to brew beer, as long as she finds hops, she can brew beer.

  Hops, also known as yeast flowers, are moraceae plants. Its leaves look similar to mulberry leaves. This place is located in the north, and it must be found in deep mountains and dense forests.

  Chu Qingning looked confused, "What is hops?"

   Others were also dumbfounded, they had never heard of hops.

  Chu Qingzhi felt that the description was too complicated, and said, "I'll let you know when I find it later."

   "Okay." Chu Qingning's eyes suddenly caught a hint of red, took a closer look, then pointed forward, and said excitedly, "Fifth Sister, Nutmeg."

  Everyone looked at it, it was a very tall tree, covered with fruits, the fruits were like longan, split into two petals, exposing the crimson aril.

   Nutmeg can be used as both medicinal material and spice, and it is very expensive in county towns.

  Chu Qingzhi smiled and walked over, "Good luck, everyone pick some."

  Tong Yujie walked over without making a sound, holding the trunk, and as soon as his internal force was activated, the nutmeg fell like rain, "This will save a lot of trouble."

   Everyone who was hit on the head by nutmeg, "..."

  Tong Yujie withdrew his hand and hugged his sword, as if nothing had happened, "Don't thank me, everyone, pick it up."

   This really saves a lot of trouble. Everyone didn't say anything, and bent down to pick it up.

  There are so many people, they look like they weigh seven or eight catties.

   After picking up nutmeg, everyone continued to move forward. There are still a lot of nutmegs on the tree, and we will pick them when the ones here are used up.

  At this time, a heavy beast's footsteps came, Chu Qingzhi was afraid of scaring Chu Qingning, so she reached out and plucked a leaf, and blew it gently, and then the footsteps became farther and farther away.

  Tong Yujie looked at Chu Qingzhi, she was able to drive away wild beasts with her voice, could it be that she is from Southern Xinjiang?

  People in southern border are good at manipulating Gu insects, wild beasts, etc. The wizards there are very powerful. When they were at their peak, they were talking about it.

  But Chuqing Zhimingming is a native of Chujia Village, Shuiyun County, how could he be so powerful?

  He suddenly felt that Chu Qingzhi was so mysterious.
