Chapter 698 Autumn
Add more updates and ask for pink.
The wives in the village, including Luo Wang, did not have a good attitude towards Luo Xiaoyan. They could maintain their superficial politeness in front of Lian Man'er and the others. However, the defense and disdain can still be seen. As for the back of them, what those wives are like to Luo Xiaoyan is never better than when they are in front of them.
Lian Man'er's family has such a big village in Luojia Village, and Luo Xiaoyan and his family will definitely not be unaware of it. Lian Man'er can imagine how many people outside view Luo Xiaoyan and the Luo family.
"So you can't arrange for Erlang to work in the village." Lian Man'er smiled.
"Yes, it's not possible." Lian Shouxin nodded.
Although the family had no good feelings for the Luo family and Luo Xiaoyan at this time, they did not delay the promise to find a job for Erlang. They did not look at others, but also to Erlang and Erniu Niu. On that day, Wulang asked someone to send a message to the county town. Soon, Manager Jiang found a job for Erlang. It was in an oil-pressing workshop outside Jinyang County.
That job is not easy, but it does not require technology and has a lot of wages. Erlang has to go to work for nearly ten miles every day, but this is not a big deal for farmers.
Erlang and Luo Xiaoyan came over to thank him. Erlang was not good at speaking. Luo Xiaoyan was better than Erlang, but she couldn't say too many tricks. She just went over and over again.
"I found this place for you. If you can't do it anymore, whether you can do it or not depends on yourself." Lian Shouxin said to Erlang, "It's just like you used to be on the mountain, you have to rely on your own abilities."
"Uncle Fourth, I know. I will definitely not embarrass you." Erlang said gratefully.
A job that can earn money for activities and supplement household income is something that the merchants can find hard to find.
Luo Xiaoyan brought two more chickens. Zhang saw the situation in her family, so he naturally refused to ask for it.
"We don't lack this. You kid always like this, but you seem like a heretic." Zhang said to Luo Xiaoyan.
"Aunt Four, we know you have nothing to lack. But this is somewhat our wish. If you don't accept it, I really can't get over it." Luo Xiaoyan said. She was still washed the clothes that day, and the creases were very obvious. Obviously, Luo Xiaoyan only wore this one outfit to wear to see the guests. However, Erlang was wearing a new trousers and jacket with big blue cloth today, and even his shoes and socks were new.
"Then, then I'll accept it." Zhang saw that Luo Xiaoyan insisted on keeping these two chickens, and thought about it, and said, "I'll give it to you again. Your parents are not in good health. Go back and stew them to replenish their bodies.... And Erlang, who will work outside in the future, I heard that the work is not easy. You have to be more careful about the food and clothing."
"Aunt Four, don't worry, we both want Erlang to do anything first. I know that he will be a worker outside in the future, so he will definitely not lose money on food and clothing." Luo Xiaoyan said hurriedly.
On that day, Lian Shouxin sent a friend to accompany Erlang to the oil press workshop. After that, he asked someone to inquire. He knew that Erlang was doing well in the oil mill and felt relieved.
Life passes quickly, and it is the time for autumn harvest. This is the busier the year, the happier the season. The work of picking grapes and making wine is still arranged to the end. The first thing to pack in is sweet potatoes, then picking peanuts, and then harvesting corn, sorghum, millet, soybeans, etc.
This year, the fields at home have doubled and are naturally busier than in previous years. In addition to their long-term workers, Lian Man'er's family has hired some short-term workers. Even Xiaoqi has temporarily put down his books, either following Lian Shuxin or Wuro all day long, and also learned to take care of things inside and outside. Although Zhang, Lian Zhier and Lian Man'er don't have to work in the fields, they are not idle at home every day. In addition to taking care of everyone's meals, they also have to watch the threshing farm, and wash and cut, dry vegetables.
Although they are busy and tired, everyone is extremely happy and satisfied when they see trucks of grains coming home, baskets of dried sweet potatoes and various vegetables.
On the day of autumn harvest, the happiest time for the family is after supper. After eating and drinking, the family likes to gather in the yard to enjoy the cool air. At this time, most of them will eat some fruits and fruits picked from the field, and even Man'er and Xiaoqi will gather together to summarize the harvest of the day and calculate the approximate returns. The accumulation of numbers every day is golden and heavy. Almost a layer of golden light is covered in the hearts of the family, not the golden light of gold, but the warmth of the full grain, full of vitality and more satisfying golden light.
On this day, after dinner, the family was still enjoying the cool air in the yard as usual. However, they had just sat down for a while and the wind blew and the sky was getting darker.
"No, it's going to rain." Lian Shouxin stood up suddenly, looked at the sky, and said.
It was sunny a few days ago, but starting this morning, the weather was cloudy and clear, but it turned completely clear after a while. Everyone thought it was fine. Unexpectedly, in the evening, it was cloudy and it was about to rain. Moreover, looking at the dark clouds spreading, it was obvious that the rain would not be light.
When planting in spring, what the farmer expects most is a rain. But when harvesting in autumn, a heavy rain is the most annoying to the farmer.
Even Shouxin watched as the dark clouds accumulated more and more, and the water vapor in the air became heavier and heavier. He didn't dare to delay for a moment, and immediately went to the yard. Goro and Xiaoqi followed. The three of them gathered the long-term workers and were busy collecting the grains from the threshing farms into the house. If they really couldn't collect them into the house, they would cover them tightly with oil cloth or straw curtains.
Zhang was also busy packing up all the dried vegetables, and Lian Zhier and Lian Man'er, Xiao Xi and Xiao Qing were also busy packing things.
The family would pack up everything, and the bean-sized raindrops smashed from the air. Soon, the raindrops became lines and intertwined into fine rain curtains.
There was a rain and a cold. On that night, Lian Zhier and Lian Man'er were lying on the kang and covered them with thin quilts. Fortunately, the whole family was diligent and took out all the quilts for autumn and winter to dry when the weather was good.
Lying in the warm bed, emitting a fresh sunshine, listening to the sound of rain outside the window, Lian Man'er fell asleep quickly. However, this night, many farmers couldn't sleep.
This rain was even heavier than even expected, and it fell until noon the next day, and the genius gradually cleared up.
