Spring scenery in the fields

Chapter 351 Discussion

Now she couldn't help but think of Shen Hubiao's head, and then she thought of the scene of his head and body lying on the bed, sewn together with needle and thread.

I shook my body and heard two people pushing a wheelbarrow behind me. The fear I had felt slowly subsided.

"Okay, okay, maybe they have already been reincarnated." Ji Wenhe looked at the two of them, "Brother Liang, we won't go in. You guys carry the rice in."

Shen Liang nodded: "Okay, put it on the ground, and you can go back and pick it up."

Several people quickly put the rice at the door and trotted away.

Shen Rongshan came back from the field: "Wen He, it's raining heavily, you should go home quickly. We will be back soon. I'll give you the oil lamp."

"Have you harvested the rice?" Ji Wenhe took the oil lamp and carefully covered it with his hand.

"It's done. I'll go close the door. When we go back later, Yuanshan and Wenshan will be here. You go back with them."

"Okay, then go ahead."

After turning around and saying hello to a few people, the three of them walked up the mountain.

I only ate half of my meal in the evening and then hurried down the mountain.

Ji Wenhe put the oil lamp on the table: "There is still some rice in the pot. If any of you are not full, come and have some more."

She sat down at the table, picked up her chopsticks, and finished the unfinished meal.

"I won't eat anymore. I'll boil some water and take a shower. I'm so tired today." Listening to the thunder outside, Shen Wenshan said, "I'll thresh the rice inside tomorrow and move it outside to dry it on a good day."

"I don't know if it will rain heavily tomorrow, but from the looks of it, it will definitely rain heavily tonight."

As soon as he finished speaking, there was a muffled thunder in the sky and heavy rain poured down.

Shen Yuanshan teased, "Brother, is your mouth blessed? It's raining heavily."

Ji Wenhe stood in the courtyard holding a bowl: "What a coincidence, the heavy rain came just after the headman's rice harvest."

I saw a figure coming up from the bottom of the mountain and shouted, "Brother Shen, it's raining heavily, run quickly."

Shen Wenshan stood by the door holding a firewood stick: "Just don't let it rain heavily when planting wheat."

"Brother, you'd better stop talking. Whatever you fear will come true."

Shen Rongshan ran to the courtyard and asked curiously, "What do you fear?"

Ji Wenhe replied: "Nothing, just wondering how long the rain will last."

"I don't know. The rain will stop tomorrow and the water on the ground won't be completely dry, so we won't be able to dry the rice."

"Go get some water and wash up early." She put the bowl on the table. "Have a good sleep. You can wash the bowl tomorrow. I really don't want to move today."

If I didn't smell of sweat, I wouldn't even want to take a shower.

Shen Rongshan carried the bucket and scooped water: "Wen He, you go in and wash first."

Ji Wenhe sat on a small stool and nodded weakly.

After taking a shower, I lay down on the bed and fell asleep in a second.

Three brothers were bathing in the yard.

Shen Yuanshan yawned and said, "Brother, don't call me for dinner tomorrow morning. I want to have a good sleep."

"I won't eat either. I'm sleepy and tired." Shen Wenshan put on his clothes and said, "Brother, go back to your room and rest early."

"Well, you go in first."

Shen Rongshan poured out the bath water, washed the dishes, and cleaned up before going back to his room to sleep.

The next afternoon, Ji Wenhe was awakened by Shen Rongshan.

He opened his eyes groggily: "Huh?"

"Wen He, Yuan Shan and I have gone down the mountain. The food is in the pot. Get up and eat something before going to sleep."

She was still not clear-headed: "What are you doing down the mountain?"

"I'm going to throw the rice."

"Hmm~"

I heard the sound of the door closing and fell asleep again in a daze.

When she woke up because she had to pee, she opened the door and saw that it was still raining heavily.

After coming back from the bathroom, I sat by the bed for a long time before I slowly came back to my senses.

I went to the kitchen to eat some food and then went down the mountain with an umbrella.

When they arrived at Shen Wenshan's house, three people were threshing rice inside.

Shen Rongshan stopped and asked, "Wen He, have you eaten?"

"I have eaten it." Ji Wenhe nodded. "We don't have enough baskets at home. We can put the food on the cloth instead of putting it in the basket. Don't we have any buckets?"

"Yes, there are two in Wenshan's house next door."

"Okay, I'll go to the next room, you two stay in this room."

The ground is covered with burlap, so the rice ears that are thrown out will bounce back. This is better than throwing rice outside.

Every family in the village was busy in their houses.

Shen Zhong's home.

Jiang Hongxi came to Tao Xing'er's room and said, "Sister-in-law, stop busying yourself and take a rest."

All the rooms in their house were filled with rice, even the beds were almost piled with rice.

"Sister-in-law, let's sit by the bed and talk. There's really no place to put your feet."

"It's the same in my house. I have to walk over the rice to go to bed." She sat on the edge of the bed and sighed, "Sister-in-law, you said we all live in the town, and my brother and my son Shen Lin will have good jobs."

"I come back as soon as the busy farming season comes. The boss hasn't said anything because of your Tianba, but after a while, he will be unhappy."

"It's fine if only one of them comes back, but if both of them come back, we'll be busy for days. If it were us, we wouldn't feel comfortable either."

Tao Xing'er sat beside her and nodded in agreement: "I think the same as you do. If it weren't for Tianba, the boss would have given up on them a long time ago."

"Yes, so I came here to discuss it with my eldest sister-in-law. As daughters-in-law, it is not easy for us to speak up. Let them speak up. If the family land is sold, we can buy two big houses in the town."

"If it really doesn't work, let someone else farm the land and we can collect some money or some grain. They are old and can't farm so much land."

Jiang Hongxi sighed and continued.

"When you have your grandson, my Xiangrong will also have a child, and we will all help take care of him at home, so we won't have time to come back and help."

"Sister-in-law, have you talked to Shen Lin?" Tao Xing'er asked.

"Not yet. I want to ask my sister-in-law what she thinks. If we think the same thing, call them both over and talk about it together."

She nodded: "We can't talk about this, let them talk about it."

"Okay." Jiang Hongxi stood up with a smile, "I'll go call them over and we'll discuss it properly."

The two families had the same idea, to divide up a few plots of land, and if someone wanted to buy, they would sell them; if no one wanted, they would give them to other families to cultivate and collect some money.

It rained heavily for two days.

This morning.

Ji Wenhe stood outside the yard with a pancake in his hand.

The sun is out, and the wheat seeds can only be planted after a few days, as the fields are full of water.

Walking down the mountain slowly, Zhao Xiaoxi came back from cutting grass for the pigs: "Wen He, why don't you go to the fields to release water?"

"They will go there soon. Have you finished threshing your rice?"

"No, I went back that night and slept until the next afternoon."

"Me too." Ji Wenhe patted his lower back, "It's still sore now. I won't be able to celebrate Mid-Autumn Festival this year."

"It's impossible. Every family is busy, and it's been raining for two days. How can I have time to go to my mother's house to give gifts? I think I can wait until the wheat is planted."

Zhao Xiaoxi poured the pig feed on the rack and came out of the pigsty.

"It will take another three or four days for the rainwater in the fields to dry up. My fields have been plowed. Fortunately, I didn't rush to plant the wheat, otherwise I would be sitting at home crying now."
