Chapter 222 Bet a bet (two more)
"What should I do now?" Qi Yaoyao looked at Shen Zhouheng with some worry and said, "It seems that God didn't hear your prayer."

"The wheat in the field is still a few days away, and now it will be a hindrance to the harvest. But if it is not harvested, it will really rain, and the yield is certain." Shen Zhouheng frowned and looked at her and said.

"I can't tell the cloud now, maybe the wind blows and it blows away, or it really comes down." Qi Yaoyao looked at him with burning eyes and said, "This is a gamble!"

"I won't accompany you into the mountains today." Shen Zhouheng strode out and said, "I'm going to ask them."

"Go! Go!" Qi Yaoyao waved at him, "Wait a minute, wait a minute." Looking at his back, he said, and went down the steps in three or two steps.

Shen Zhouheng turned his head to look at her who was walking like flying, so frightened that he lost his soul, "My God, slow down and be careful of your stomach, stomach." A lunge rushed to her and supported her.

"It's okay, it's okay." Qi Yaoyao looked at him with a smile and said, "I can still fall on this flat ground."

"If you say anything, you'll be hit, I can hear it." Shen Zhouheng looked at her helplessly and said, "Walk slowly."

"Got it, got it." Qi Yaoyao nodded and said, "What am I going to say?" After thinking about it, she said, "This wheat has to be dried, what if it rains while drying the wheat? ? Cover the wheat at home, it is easy to get moldy."

"What else do I think?" Shen Zhou's amber pupils looked at her and smiled, "This house has an attic drying shed, which can be placed on it to dry." He smiled and said, "This summer is full of showers. ."

"Prepare for a rainy day, prepare more firewood at home!" Qi Yaoyao said with bright, deep black eyes looking at him.

"What are you doing?" Shen Zhou looked at her puzzled and said.

"Dry it!" Qi Yaoyao said simply and easily, "It's better to burn the kang and dry the wheat on the kang than to cover the wheat to get moldy." She said worriedly, "It just takes some trouble. "

"Oh!" Shen Zhouheng looked at her suddenly and nodded sharply, "This is a solution."

"It's just... things that didn't happen, many people are reluctant to do." Qi Yaoyao said with some worry.

"No." Shen Zhouheng said, looking at her with sparkling eyes.

"So confident?" Qi Yaoyao said as she looked at him with her black eyes like ink jade.

"The Central Plains is a battleground for the military. Whenever there is a war, the Central Plains will suffer. In addition to the flooding of the Yellow River from time to time, the local people are used to it." Shen Zhouheng looked at her with warm and jade-like eyes and said. , "It's very necessary for you to remind me, otherwise the wheat will not be able to be dried in the sun, and it will be so moldy that it hurts to death."

Then he asked again, "Anything else?"

"No." Qi Yaoyao's round apricot eyes looked at him and shook her head slightly, comforting him, "Don't worry, I won't go into the mountains."

"Then I'm leaving." Shen Zhou said without looking back, "I'll let Luming catch two fish for you." Only these words were left in the air.

However, Qi Yaoyao didn't wait for the fish that Luming caught, because the yamen sergeant beat the gong and urged the peasants to go down to the field to harvest the wheat.

Standing in the field holding a bamboo pole and blasting sparrows, Qin Laowu looked at Luming who came to Qingfeng Village out of breath and shouted enthusiastically, "Brother Lu!"

He handed the bamboo pole to Qin Liangzhu, and ran to the ridge, "Why is little brother Lu here?" After knowing the purpose of his visit, he looked at the wheat in the field and said, "The temperature in the mountains is low, so it's not even a day! It's a little early to harvest the wheat now, and the grain will be fuller when it grows longer."

"Brother Lu, don't worry, we are on alert! This is the ration for the next year." Qin Laowu said with a smile, pointing to heaven, "Look at the dark clouds, this summer day, the child's face , become fast."

"Master Shen asked an experienced old farmer. It's hard to say that if it rains, the wheat will be soaked in the rain and it will be finished." Lu Ming looked at him and said worriedly.

"I'm also an experienced old farmer! It won't rain this time." Qin Laowu looked at him with a smile and said, "I've lived here for half my life. There are thunderstorms before and after the wheat harvest. It's fine." He said with a smile. , "But thank you little brother Lu. As far back as I can remember, we have never seen the county magistrate care so much about Xia's harvest. Basically, I heard it a lot during tax collection, but I haven't seen it before."

Lu Ming stomped his feet in a hurry, "Brother Qin, just listen to me. What if it's really raining? The wheat is not bad for a few days."

"Uh..." Qin Laowu looked at him so anxiously, "Why don't I wait."

When Lu Ming heard this, he knew that no matter what he said, people would not listen to him, "Here, prepare more firewood at home."

"What does this mean?" Qin Laowu looked at him puzzled and asked.

"In case it rains, the wheat can't be exposed to the sun when it is taken back, so it can be dried on a kang." Lu Ming looked at him patiently and explained.

"Yeah! This method is good, why didn't I think of it!" Qin Laowu said brightly.

"Then I'm leaving, and I have to go to the next village." Lu Ming frowned at him and said, "You should consider the weather and harvest the wheat earlier, not less than a few days."

"Understood, I will consider it." Qin Laowu looked at him with a serious face and said.

Lu Ming looked at him with big eyes and saw that he really listened, "Then I'll go."

"What are you going to go? It's not too late to stay and have a meal!" Qin Laowu grabbed his arm and said.

"No, no, I have to notify the villages below." Lu Ming patted his hand and let him loose, waving his hands and running towards other villages.

"When the wheat is collected, I will send it to you." Qin Laowu waved his hand and shouted at him.

"No, no." Lu Ming waved at him and quickened his pace.

"Five uncles, fifth uncles, what is this little brother Lu doing?" Qin Lizhu asked curiously when he came to him.

Qin Laowu passed Lu Ming's words to his nephew.

"This county magistrate is really rare." Qin Lizhu said in surprise.

"Don't say you're rare, I'm the first person I've ever seen in my life." Qin Laowu took off the straw hat on his head and fanned, fanned, and kept on.

Qin Lizhu looked at the impatient Qin Lao Wu and said, "Uncle Fifth, your heart is disturbed by Luming's news."

Qin Laowu squatted on the ridge, gusts of wind blew, and golden wheat waves rolled.

"Yeah!" Qin Laowu frowned and said, "It's going to rain, this season of wheat is over, and it's related to our rations and taxes to be paid. It's time to come here."

"Then take it! We can't bet! Even if there is a loss, we can bear it now. It's really going to rain, and if we can't take it in time, it's all the loss." Qin Lizhu squatted down and looked at him and said, "You said Woolen cloth?"
