With a Door In Mind

Chapter 81, Autumn Harvest

Time flickers.

A week has passed.

The autumn harvest time in the village has come.

As soon as it was slightly dawn, I heard Jiang Dingzhong shouting at the entrance of the village.

Only then did the people sparsely walk toward the fields.

According to the previous autumn harvest scene, harvesting food had to be robbed.

In previous years, there would be elderly people watching the weather at this time, and it was expected that it would not rain for a while in the future, so they began to rush to harvest food.

Because the harvested grain is not dried in time, the grain will be wasted.

Of course, relying entirely on experience, there will always be mistakes. If the grain is soaked with rain, then every household will need to divide some grain according to the head, and fry it in a pot overnight.

Just the current weather? I beg him not to rain.

Jiang Xiaochuan, who got up early, looked at the scene in front of him curiously. He has not seen what the autumn harvest looks like. He'll be ready to go take a look.

On the other hand, Jiang Xiaohe looked excited.

What is he excited about?

The teachers have gone to collect the food. And half the boys in the school have to go back to help.

Hit the ground running. Send water, and pick up fallen wheat heads after harvesting.

Jiang Xiaochuan looked at the excited Jiang Xiaohe and shook his head. Still children, there are children who love to read, but there are really not many.

Those students who have been working very hard are for their own future, for the pride of their parents, and for their children. Reading was also the fastest way out for the poor in that era.

At this moment, Jiang Dingzhong walked over to him with a frown.

Jiang Xiaochuan saw the other party's expression. He asked curiously, "Uncle Jiang, what's wrong?"

Jiang Dingzhong came over and said to Jiang Xiaochuan: "Xiaochuan, the labor force in the village is now reduced by half. You and Xiaohe will go to the fields to help in a while, and there will be people gathering there. Then your work points will be counted."

He didn't care about that little bit of work.

Jiang Xiaochuan asked suspiciously, "Uncle Jiang, just my brother and I have two children, how can I help?"

Jiang Dingzhong said helplessly: "It's not just you, the children in the village have to go to help and do whatever they can. It's even possible to boil water and send some water."

Hearing his words, Jiang Xiaochuan thought of those records in later generations that the grain rotted in the fields because it was too late to harvest.

When there was really no food to eat in the later period, people remembered the food that had rotted in the fields before.

So all out, slicing in the ground, rotten sweet potatoes. and sprouting seeds.

Not even the mouse hole was spared.

At that time, there was a lot of food found in the mouse holes. You can find several kilograms in a hole.

And if you catch a mouse, you can eat meat at home.

This rat was not the dirty rat in the sewer, but a vole.

Hearing that he was not alone, the whole village was basically dispatched. Being out of the group is a dangerous thing. So he nodded.

"Then Uncle Jiang, what are you going to do then, just tell me."

But what did he think of, he asked, "Uncle Jiang, what is this year's harvest? How much can this wheat be harvested per mu of land?"

Jiang Dingzhong said worriedly: "I don't know. In previous years, one mu of land was less than 200 kilograms. It is good to have 180 pounds this year."

Jiang Xiaochuan glanced at him and said, "Uncle Jiang, when I went to the provincial capital, I heard that the production in other places was already there. You probably don't have a fraction of what others have."

Jiang Dingzhong glanced at him and said, "Don't tell me, I really believed it at first, and I'm going to study... As a result..."

Then he said angrily, "You little brat has a lot to do. Hurry up and go to work. You should worry about it. I'm still busy, and I don't have time to talk to you."

After saying that, he turned and left.

Jiang Xiaochuan touched his nose awkwardly.

But he was relieved,

At least I was worried that Uncle Jiang's success would not happen.

There was nothing to do anyway, Jiang Xiaochuan took Jiang Xiaohe to the field.

At this time, there were already many people on the field.

They are all together with people who are familiar with each other.

At this time, Jiang Dingzhong, Liu Accounting and others brought a few people and a small amount of farm implements here.

Followed by two brightly dressed men. A little bit blessed.

This should be the person above down to supervise and guide the autumn harvest.

However, when Jiang Xiaochuan saw the farm tools in the hands of everyone, he was surprised.

Because at this time the farm implements in their hands were not iron. But some pieces of stone.

Fortunately, some of them are iron.

It is estimated that the iron donation was not enough, so some "waste" farm tools and other iron products were used instead.

Hearing the incessant complaints, Jiang Dingzhong said with a cold face: "What's the quarrel? This difficulty was hit? Of course, it is much more difficult to beat the devil. Now is a difficult time, everyone must understand and work together. If you don't do it, what will you eat in the future? Are you waiting to die?"

Jiang Dingzhong's words were very prestigious in the village, and the people below gradually lost their voices when they heard his words.

Jiang Dingzhong looked at the voice that was gradually getting smaller in front of him. Only then did he say: "Let's divide into groups. Each 5 people are responsible for a field. Hurry up and go to work."

Then the name rolls started.

The people who started to be pointed out were all good people working in the village.

Take some people to the fields. The men cut the wheat, while the women gathered and bundled by the side. Finally, the man picked it back to the dojo for threshing.

The adults are in full swing. The children here also began to assign people.

"Xiaohe...Come here..."

I saw a child about eight or nine years old shouting to Jiang Xiaohe.

This person is Jiang Xiaohe's good friend Huzi in the village. Next to it was a group of children of about the same age. The two children of Uncle Jiang's family were also inside.

"Xiaochuan, come here. This way." In the crowd, a thirteen- or fourteen-year-old child beckoned to Jiang Xiaochuan.

When Jiang Xiaochuan heard his words, he walked towards the other side.

This man's name is Jiang Chunwu, his father and Jiang Dingzhong are cousins, so he and Jiang Chunming, who is the iron egg of Uncle Jiang's family, are of the same generation.

He was a good playmate of the original owner, Jiang Xiaochuan, in the village.

But after crossing over by himself, he never found the other party.

Because of the mentality of adults, he has never been able to integrate into this group of children.

Pee and play in the mud?

He can't do it.

Jiang Chunwu said to Jiang Xiaochuan, "Xiaochuan, why haven't you come to play with me for so long? My mother told me not to go to you."

Hearing his words, Jiang Xiaochuan smiled and said, "Yes, Xiao Wu, it's not like you didn't know something happened recently in my house."

The village is so big, the big girl and the little daughter-in-law love the short chats between the parents, and there are no secrets.

Xiao Wu nodded: "Then we'll be together later. I'll help you when I'm too busy."

Jiang Xiaochuan smiled and nodded. It doesn't matter to him.

Soon the group was divided.

He and Jiang Chunwu and another child named Jiang Chunlin were in a group of three.

Responsible for picking up the wheat that was cut earlier, and picking up the fallen wheat ears by the way.
