Chapter 138 What are you doing at home?(1/2)
The road to returning home is too difficult.
The Zuo family and his group felt more and more that they had something wrong with it, so they went home due to heavy rain.
I don’t know that I thought there were breastfeeding children at home waiting to be fed, so I was so anxious to stay in the guest day to go back.
But you have already set out, you can't look back.
This is the new Zuo Family Congratulations released by the left-handed. Going back in shame has no face.
The daughters and sons-in-law of the Zuo family obeyed the orders.
Only Magnolia is disobedient.
The left-handed man was pulling the white magnolia and ordered: "I told you to hide behind me and listen to me."
Magnolia was furious and had to reply loudly: "I didn't hear it. I'm afraid you'll get it for me again. Let's take care of it alone."
After saying that, I tried to apply the rain on my face. It was annoying and I had to tell the truth.
The left-handed man choked, then forget it, this woman didn't know how to be slutty and went their separate ways.
...
So, not far from Xinglin Village, and before we even arrived at the next village, the Zuo family members were all not well built.
He pulled the mule cart before hitting.
The hat on Liuzi's head was scraped away, and I don't know where it was scraped.
After pressing, Zhu Xingde and Erzhuzi were soaked in a cart of carrots and cabbage. They had been soaked in a thorough manner that the straw raincoat could not be worn for a long time.
There are also those who are splashed in mud.
Luo Junxi pulled his wife barefoot and Xiaomai made her calves cramp. The more she was careful she walked in the mud, the more cramps she felt.
Those who are pregnant with a baby in their stomach should pay more attention to it. Magnolia supports her eldest daughter Xiao Dao, which makes her tired and her shoulders are pyrosy.
There is also a lame man who needs to use a stick along the way.
To go home, it is harder than autumn harvest, and I don’t know what to do to go back early.
But when passing by the fields of another village, the Zuo family suddenly felt that the road below their feet was nothing.
Because who is comparing with?
Just look at the fields in the distance, there are many people who are as young as five years old and who are still breathing, and are harvesting under heavy rain.
It’s obvious that I didn’t finish my work before it rains.
For example, some families, even if they heard rumors that it was going to rain in other villages, wouldn’t they be able to do it if the family had a strong labor force?
What's more, there are those who are skeptical. The poorer they are, the more they can't let go. They use the land as their lifeblood. They are thinking about how many dozens of kilograms acre of land is missing. They rely on the crops to make more profitable in the whole year to fill their stomachs, so they want to wait for two more days.
This time, it was raining heavily.
Some people may simply not believe in the rumors of heavy rain.
In short, the people who caused this situation were originally a few steps later when they heard the letter. If you hesitate, can there be someone who can finish it?
There are even many families who simply don’t know anything. No matter how far the rumors spread, they only revolve around the three villages where the Zuo family, Zhu family and Luo family are located. Only these three villages have those ignorant families, let alone other villages.
So these people rushed to the ground from the raindrops.
What is thunder and rumbling? Lightning can kill people. I don’t care about anything at this time. The whole family is just rushing to collect it.
The left-handed and Magnolia looked at the people while walking.
well.
It is conceivable that such heavy rain is about to catch half of the rain, and you will soon be able to catch half of the rain and throw half of it.
I took it home and couldn't dry it at all, and the room was filled with grain on the ground.
This is nothing. It is mainly because the grain taken out of the water. If it is easy to sprout when taken home, it will be easy to sprout, so it will not be eaten. No matter how poor people are, they will not dare to touch it, as it is easy to get poisoned.
Remove the sprouts, then remove the soaked ones, moldy and covered, and you can calculate that even if the grain grows, it won’t work. Pick and choose and throw away a small amount of it. This is called the reduction of yield after heavy rain.
So, can’t you catch it without rushing to rain?
Old Man Zuo and Magnolia looked at each other, and they didn't dare to look up at the sky, for fear of water flowing down their faces.
The rain has been falling for so many days, and there is no tendency to become smaller at all. It only turned into moderate rain last night and just now, and it is getting more and more urgent.
The temperature has dropped significantly in the past few days, and Xiaoji and Xiaomai have put on thin cotton jackets. I feel a little cold when I go out in the morning.
You said that the people who have confiscated the land will not be in a hurry?
Then I finally waited for the rain to stop, and what if it started to freeze again. This has not happened in their place.
It suddenly became cold. As the rain rained, snowflakes and hail fell slowly. In the year of disaster, hail fell in the summer. The crops were smashed to the ground and could not even be supported.
So once you get frozen, it will be even more complete. You can't even pull it out, which is even less than harvesting on this heavy rainy day.
In addition, these families who have confiscated their crops are already disappointed and have already lost so much. If they really freeze after the rain, they will be like having no food or drink in this winter. Then you will not be hungry and sell their children? If you can't withstand any movement, you can only ignore anything. No matter whether you freeze after the rain or not, you will harvest first.
Magnolia saw a boy seven or eight years old on the side of the ground. Her whole body was poured by rain and could wrinkle a basin of water. Her hands were so frozen that they could not stretch out their legs. She was still cutting soybeans on the waist of the cat.
"This? Didn't you hear the thunder? How could you let such a older child continue to do it?" Only Magnolia said, she could hear what she said. She knew in her heart, what's the use of feeling sorry for her child? Those who can't thunder must continue to work. It's useless to sympathize and feel sorry for her. What else can we help?
Seeing such a scene, I can only feel bad.
But the left-handed's mood is completely different from that of Magnolia.
Old Man Zuo, regardless of opening his mouth and saying something, would get a mouthful of rain. He walked slowly a few steps waiting for Zhu Xingde, who was pushing the mule cart, to come closer, and then said loudly:
"Son-in-law, you will have good fortune. Remember what your father said!"
That's right, in his opinion, there will be blessings.
The family is so miserable, so we try our best to persuade the notice. The left-handed thinks that is not an exaggeration at all, which means saving the family to have enough food this winter.
How many families have my son-in-law saved?
Otherwise, what would be like in the earth now? There will only be more and more children working in the rain.
Moreover, in this matter, our family has done our best. We can tell everything we can, and we can persuade everyone with great sincerity. Before it rained heavily, many people didn't believe it, and they showed a hysterical expression on their faces, thinking that we were sick. But the eldest son-in-law still gave in kindness to instruct.
It is impossible for everyone to listen to us in anything. We are not gods who can save all things in the world, nor is it the emperor who can save God. This is the best result.
Left-handed people feel like they are hiding their merits and fame at this time.
Finally realized how meaningful it is for Zhu Xingde to dream in advance.
"What did you say, dad?" Zhu Xingde didn't hear it clearly at all.
Old Man Zuo smiled at Zhu Xingde: "I didn't say anything, let's go, there's thunder on that side, we have to hurry up."
If you want to mention the incident of predicting heavy rain, I have to mention an episode.
Sixth and Two Zhuzi once felt puzzled.
After all, they followed them into the city to sell wild boars. Zhu Xingde used the excuse to say that he was going to the city to listen to people from other places, and it was raining heavily outside.
Liuzi was confused. He once snatched his feet at the head of the old Zhu family and wondered with Erzhuzi: "That day, my brother and I were together. Why haven't I heard of heavy rain outside?"
"That's because you didn't pay attention."
"Impossible. Now I remember everything about my brother. I have to learn how to do that."
"What kind of tricks do you have?"
"A cow, ten acres of land, is not as good as De Ge's mouth. A hundred ducks and a thousand chickens are not as good as De Ge's bragging. Look, how much money we earn when we sell wild boar meat depends on De Ge's mouth. I just want to learn from him. I feel that you can get rich by planting ten acres of land. So I have recorded all of what De Ge said, or who said to De Ge, and how Brother answered. There was no such thing as heavy rain outside."
Erzhuzi was smarter and after smelling the hands of his feet, he said, "I understand. Brother De heard from outsiders when he was going to pee."
"Ah, that's it." Liuzi suddenly realized.
De Ge went to the city three times that day, but he didn't go with him.
In this way, Zhu Xingde's excuse that "heavy rain outside will infect us" saved many homes seamlessly, and it has not aroused anyone's suspicion.
Liuzi saw the elderly and children rushing to collect in heavy rain, and there was only one idea left: tsk, why are these people disobeying? It would be great if they listened to Brother De before it rained.
Like his dilapidated thatched house, it didn't collapse even after it rained so heavily.
Just because he listened to his brother, he repaired it in advance to prevent heavy rains.
——
"Oh, the Fourth Master and the Fourth Grandma are back."
As soon as the Zuo family and his group arrived at the entrance of Youhan Village, a young man older than Zhu Xingde hurriedly greeted the left-handed man and the white magnolia.
This young man also has the surname Zuo, but he can't stop the family from having a large population. He gave birth to a series of people with a big surname. His younger son is younger than his older grandson. This is very common in the village. This boy is of low generation. He wants to call him a master when he sees a left-handed man.
I want to help push the cart by throwing the wet wood off my shoulders.
The left-handed advised: "You don't need to push me, there are so many of us. Boy, come out to pick up firewood. Is this? Then carry the firewood back quickly, it's raining too much."
But the young man was too enthusiastic and said that he had been thoroughly absorbed anyway, so he would not have had time to do this.
In the end, he reached out to help push the car.
The young man smiled and greeted Zhu Xingde, Xiaodao, Luo Junxi and Xiaomai with a smile on his face, "Grand aunt, eldest uncle, younger aunt, younger uncle."
