Splendid peasant girl busy farming

Chapter 2523 The news over there (three more)

In the morning, I have to send two dials of tea to the field, and in the afternoon, I have to send watermelon back.

Then at noon, they have to cook the big guys' meals. To be honest, the two of them are too busy at home to touch the ground.

Anyone who has burned an earthen stove in a farmhouse knows how hot this hot day is.

Every time the food was cooked, they ate in the front yard, and Mrs. Sun couldn't get back in the backyard for a long time.

"In the morning, when you came back from work, you had breakfast at our house, and then you sent everyone away to escape the summer heat." Yang Ruoqing continued.

"When the sun goes down, you go to the fields to finish the work, and the work will be done later. Our family does not provide dinner. I will convert the dinner into money, and then add some more appropriately. I will pay them that day and let them take it. It's guaranteed that the Qian family will be more happy if they go to eat, what do you think, Dad?" she asked.

Yang Huazhong said: "To be honest, I saw someone suffering from heat stroke during the day, so I thought of doing this."

"I came back and saw that your mother was so hot that she couldn't eat. I was also anxious. I hoped that the rice would be harvested sooner, and the late rice would be inserted sooner." He said.

Yang Ruoqing pursed her lips, "Okay, then when work is over today, Dad, you can tell the big guys."

This year's summer is relatively dry, with little rain.

I don't know where it is far away, but in Wanghai County, the crops in many places are not good.

Because it is too dry.

However, along the line of Changping Village, Yujia Village, and Zhengjia Village, the crops are growing much better than other places.

The digger does not forget to dig the well.

Once again, everyone deeply felt the beauty of Yang Ruoqing's "long vines and melons" canal system.

During floods, the small man-made ponds on both sides of the canal can store water and share the pressure of the canal, preventing water from overflowing from the canal and submerging the crops and fields on both banks.

In times of drought, the water accumulated in these small ponds becomes a life-saving source.

Although it is evaporating every day, at least it can alleviate the urgent need, so that the crops can survive this most critical period. When the beginning of autumn, the rain will come down.

In the morning, I went to the pond to wash clothes and vegetables. When the big guys saw Yang Huazhong and the others carrying the water truck to the field, they all scrambled to greet Yang Huazhong and made friends.

Everyone lined up, counting on the water truck to water the crops.

Therefore, Yang Huazhong's family, which owned the only keel waterwheel in the village, once again became the focus of the whole village. Even the entire Lao Yang family was sought after walking in the village.

Old Yang's waist stiffened again.

After a lot of rushing to harvest in the dark, this year's early rice was finally harvested, dried and put into the warehouse.

The seedlings of late rice were also inserted into the fields while the iron was hot.

The long-awaited rain finally came.

At this time, it was the end of June in the lunar calendar, and it was almost July.

On this day, there was a thin drizzle of rain in the sky, which washed away a lot of the heat and heat wave that had dominated the past month.

The temperature dropped a bit, and the wind and rain blew into the house. In the aisle between the front and rear doors, a bamboo cooling bed was placed. Lie down on it and stretch out your limbs. Yang Ruoqing felt that she could sleep all day. sky.

However, I still have to get up today, because Mrs. Sun took the new rice to grind the rice milk, and today I will make rice noodles to reward the family.

Yang Ruoqing planned to go over to help first, and come back after lunch to take a good nap.

The old Luo's family, Tuobaxian and the children, Yang Ruolan and Ahao, the Sun family, and old Yangtou and Tan were all invited by Yang Huazhong.

It was raining outside, but the spacious main room of Yang Huazhong's house was cool and lively.

Luo Baobao and the others are the happiest when they are being teased by the elders, acting coquettishly on purpose.

There was constant laughter and joy in the main room.

Yang Ruoqing was also very happy, thinking that it would be great if Tang Yazi was at home.

In the kitchen in the backyard, sisters Sun and Da Sun are busy making rice noodles.

Seeing Yang Ruoqing coming in, Da Sun hurriedly waved at her.

"Qing'er, you came here just in time, the first basket of rice noodles just came out of the pot, come and taste it." She said.

Yang Ruoqing came over and took a look, in the steamer made of bamboo, the white rice noodles were really just out of the pot.

On each one, a plum blossom-shaped pattern is dotted with red edible paint.

It's steaming hot, and it's very sultry at first sight.

"Wait a minute, make an offering to the Kitchen God first." Sun reminded from the side.

Yang Ruoqing quickly grabbed two of them, put them in a bowl and placed them at the innermost part of the stove next to the wall, and put her hands together and bowed lightly twice.

After doing all this, just then turned around and grabbed one for himself, blew it on his mouth, and took the first bite.

A little sour, a little sweet.

The unique delicacy of rice noodles is entangled with the tip of the tongue, and the faint fragrance is a gift from nature.

"How is it? Is it delicious?" Da Sun asked.

Yang Ruoqing nodded repeatedly, "I can eat three catties in one sitting!"

This is not bragging, it is true.

This kind of rice cake, her highest record is to eat three catties, and after eating it, she still has a lot of aftertaste.

"Mother, auntie, why don't you eat?" Yang Ruoqing asked.

Da Sun said: "I ate a lot of breakfast, so I'm not hungry right now."

Mrs. Sun said: "I'll eat it later, let's make these fried rice balls first."

"By the way, Qing'er, you will finish eating the one in your hand later, and take the tip of this steamer to the front yard for everyone to try something new."

……

For this meal, the theme is to eat rice noodles made from new rice.

However, rice cooked with new rice, as well as various stir-fried dishes are available.

A very filling meal.

Halfway through the meal, Yang Huamei suddenly thought of something, looked around and asked, "It's weird, all of us are here to eat rice noodles, why didn't the gluttonous fourth sister-in-law come over? Weird! "

Hearing Yang Huamei's words, the smile on Old Yang's face paused.

He scolded Yang Huamei: "What are you talking about? It's not that He'er gave birth, and your fourth sister-in-law went to take care of the confinement child."

"Huh? He'er gave birth? When did it happen?" Yang Huamei's eyes widened in surprise.

Everyone else at the table was also surprised, including Yang Ruoqing and Sun Shi.

Old Yang froze for a moment, then turned to ask Mrs. Tan who was sitting beside him.

"What's the situation? Didn't I ask you to tell your family members so that you can prepare for the ritual of baptism?" he asked.

"Didn't you say so?" he asked again.

Mrs. Tan was holding a rice noodle cake in her hand, and was eating it unhurriedly.

Hearing Old Yang's question, she didn't raise her head, and said with a changed face: "I forgot, I didn't have time to say it."

"What?" Old Yang was even more surprised.

"It's such a big deal for He'er to have a baby, you just forget it and you'll be fine?" the old man asked again.

"If you don't say anything, what will you do when you go back to wash Jiuchao and give gifts?" He asked sharply, putting down the chopsticks in his hand.
