Rebirth of farming for a living
Chapter 24 It’s time for the autumn harvest
Dr. Liu came to see Li Xiangnan two days ago. He found that Li Xiangnan's leg was recovering well and the splint was removed, but he was told not to do heavy work.
Mrs. Wang was afraid of getting into trouble, so she tried her best to prevent Li Xiangnan from going to the kang these days.
Seeing that the days are getting closer, the wheat in the field is gradually turning yellow.It was almost time to harvest the grain in the field, and Li Xiangnan was worried. Wang wanted to do business, and with his legs like this, even though his family only had five acres of land, he couldn't harvest it without help.
We can't let Wang carry the sickle on his own.
Such a person would not be able to survive.As the days passed, business became smoother and smoother. In the meantime, Wang Daniu came over to deliver honeysuckle twice, and Li Qiuyan's wallet became even fuller.Mrs. Wang also saved some money, and the amount of copper coins at home has been increasing day by day. Seeing Li Xiangnan's frown, Mrs. Wang took advantage of Li Qiuyan's busy work and asked: "Master, what are you worried about these days? "Li Xiangnan sighed: "Seeing that the autumn harvest is about to happen, my legs..." Wang smiled nonchalantly after hearing this: "I don't think anything should make you unhappy, let's just invite someone." Li Xiangnan said : "Well, our family doesn't have much money or much land, so it's a bit unnecessary to hire someone. It will make a lot of noise by then."
Wang, however, had already made plans: "You, you, you are really confused. You don't say whether Yanyan and I can do it. Even if we can, how many days will it take? The family business can't stop. We can't make enough money in one day." There's so much to use." Li Qiuyan also walked in at this time, "Yes, Dad, let's invite someone. Yingzi's father, Uncle Wu, can also help. My eldest uncle and second uncle, let's ask them to help after they finish their work. It’s not like you’re busy in vain.” Li Xiangnan felt relieved after hearing this.
It's just that Li Qiuyan was worried. The wine he made last time didn't know if there were too many brown sugar impurities. Anyway, it smelled sour, so he didn't succeed.The fungus is growing very well, but it's just not ready for picking yet.Sweet potatoes have a short maturity period and can be harvested in two to three months. After harvesting in autumn, you can try planting some of them.
However, how to convince Li Xiangnan became a problem. They only grew spring wheat for one season here, let alone the sweet potatoes that they had never seen before.Worried in his heart, Li Qiuyan did not say anything. He just waited for the wheat to be harvested and slowly told Li Xiangnan.
When Li Qiuyan thought of this, she went to the "laboratory" to look at her basket of sweet potatoes. She remembered that in her previous life, her colleagues would use sweet potatoes to grow potted plants in winter, and they would sprout after just soaking them in a little water.
She also knew that sweet potatoes, like potatoes, are grown from tubers.Li Qiuyan thought about it and went to serve the sweet potatoes.She first cut the sweet potatoes into evenly sized pieces and placed them on the kang for breeding.In the next few days, I just need to sprinkle water on it from time to time. I plan to wait until it sprouts and then talk to Li Xiangnan.
Seeing that some anxious villagers started to carry sickles to collect them, the calm Wang could not sit still.When she came back from closing her stall that day, she went to Aunt Wu's house to talk about harvesting wheat.
Only Aunt Wu's mother-in-law, Grandma Wu, was at home. Grandma Wu was cooking pancakes in the house. Seeing Mrs. Wang in a hurry, she said, "Xiangnan's family, they have all gone to the ground. If you need anything, tell me." Mrs. Wang smiled apologetically. Said: "It's not that my Xiangnan's legs haven't recovered yet. I want to ask Brother Qing to help us harvest the wheat at home and pay for it." Grandma Wu smiled nonchalantly: "What did I think it was? Your brother Qing and sister-in-law Qing have agreed that they will go to your house to collect the things at home. It’s okay, some fields are not ripe yet, it’s still early.” With that, Grandma Wu took a basket Persimmon gave Wang two more cakes before letting her go.
Mrs. Wang went to make arrangements with Li Xiangdong and Li Xiangxi again before going home.
Mrs. Wang came home with a smile on her face, and told Li Xiangnan that they had agreed to take delivery in two days. Li Xiangnan breathed a sigh of relief.
After two days, most people started to harvest, and the wheat in the fields was almost ripe. Li Xiangnan was very anxious at home, and Mrs. Wang laughed at him several times.
In fact, Li Qiuyan is also a little anxious. She wants to plant sweet potatoes quickly.
Today is the autumn harvest day for Li Qiuyan's family. The Wang family will stop the braised meat business for one day. Li Qiuyan said that there are many people and the harvest will be finished in two days, so Wang will go to sell meat as usual.
Early in the morning, Wu Qing and Aunt Wu came over. The eldest uncle and his aunt came with their son Li Mu and Li Lin. The second uncle and his aunt also came with Xia Zhi and Dong Xue.The second aunt said a little embarrassedly: "Let Xia Zhi go and help, and Dongxue can help cook at home." Seeing Xia Zhi's first appearance as a girl, Li Qiuyan couldn't bear it.He said, "Let Sister Xia Zhi help at home." At that moment of confusion, Wang Daniu, his eldest aunt and Wang Congcong, and Wang Erniu and his second aunt also came over.
It turned out that when I came to deliver honeysuckle last time, my uncle asked about the harvest day, and Mrs. Wang said that she had found someone.My uncle Wang Daniu didn't say anything at that time. When the day came, he brought everyone over without saying a word.
After asking about the reason for the dispute, the eldest aunt said: "There are many people today and the girls are not at home. Let the girls cook at home." The second uncle Li Xiangxi agreed without saying anything, but the second uncle looked at Li Xiangxi carefully. One glance.
Mrs. Wang was afraid of getting into trouble, so she tried her best to prevent Li Xiangnan from going to the kang these days.
