It is difficult for the farmer's sister

Chapter 129 Filial piety (April 21 in the lunar calendar)

Su Rui smiled and said: "You let us do it, but we don't do it, we still plan to hire a few people to do it during the autumn farming last year, and we will have to ask Uncle Chang Le to help find some suitable people. "

Su Changle nodded, "There's no problem with this, how about those people from last year?"

Su Rui thought about the people who were last year, they were all hardworking, and they were not cheating, so she nodded without opinion.

The person who agreed to hire, the wheat on the car was also loaded, Su Changle said: "Okay, let's send the wheat back for you first."

Su Rui and the others followed beside the mule cart, Su Rui thought about it and asked, "Uncle Chang Le, Uncle Chang Ying, how about I don't grow rice in the paddy field?"

Su Changying was surprised, "You don't grow rice, so what about paying taxes for the autumn harvest?"

Su Rui "...can't you pay money?"

Su Changle pondered for a moment and said, "It's best not to pay money. Not only is it not worthwhile to pay money, but the main reason is that you are all children, which is not good."

Su Rui didn't understand, "Why not?"

Meng Mingzhou interjected, "Don't expose your wealth, we are still young, if you can spend a large sum of money and let these little yamen servants know about it, what do you think it will be?"

Su Changle nodded, "Mingzhou boy is right."

Su Rui "..."

She really didn't think about it that much, she just felt that growing rice was too troublesome, and she had to raise seedlings, transplant rice seedlings, and pull weeds from time to time. She didn't want to do farm work herself, and of course she couldn't let her younger siblings do it.

Hey, it's really painful to think that she has money and food, but she still has to do farm work on the four acres of land, and she can't find someone to do all of it.

Meng Mingzhou looked at her wrinkled face and thought it was funny, "Then we will plant two acres of rice in the paddy field."

Su Rui, "There are two acres left, how about planting peanuts? You can fry them as snacks, make snacks, or extract oil."

Su Changle thought about it, his family is not short of food to eat now, just plant rice in the paddy field, plant a few acres of corn in the dry land, enough to pay taxes, and plant some sweet potatoes to store in the winter for roasting and eating. It can be fed to mules, and the remaining two acres can also be planted with peanuts.

"Then I will also plant two acres of peanuts."

Seeing that Su Changle also wanted to plant, Su Changying thought about her own land and decided to go back and discuss with Su Lu about planting a few acres.

On the next day, Su Rui told Su Qiao to take Su Wan and Su Chennan to take care of the corn to dry at home, while she and Meng Mingzhou continued to go to the field.

Next to Su Rui's paddy field is Wang's family, because Wang goes to her house to cook applesauce every morning, so there are only three Su Chendong brothers in the field.

Seeing that a large piece had been harvested, Su Rui knew that they must have gone out before dawn.

"Brother Chendong, you guys are so fast."

When Su Chendong heard the sound, he turned his head and saw that it was Su Rui, and gently pulled the corner of his mouth, "Sister Rui, have you finished cutting the other piece of your house?"

Su Rui nodded, "Yes, I harvested a day yesterday."

Just when Su Chendong was about to say something, he saw Su Rui glance behind him, and his expression suddenly changed.

Su Rui didn't know, so she turned her head and found that the people from the old house had also come out to harvest wheat.

That's right, the land of her family and the land of Su Chendong's family are both divided from the land of the old house, and the old house only has a large piece of paddy field, if you want a paddy field, you can only divide it from a large piece of land Well, then it is destined to be a neighbor.

The people in the old house also found Su Rui, sister, brother and Su Chendong, and Mr. Su walked in.

"Hello grandpa."

"Hello grandpa."

"Hello, Grandpa Su."

Sister Su Rui, Meng Mingzhou and Su Chendong hurriedly greeted each other.

Old Master Su nodded, and he looked at Su Chendong with complicated eyes. Although the few things Su Chendong did now displeased him, he was his first grandson after all, and he had loved him for many years. He has already shouldered the burden of the family at a young age, and he has mixed feelings in his heart.

"Where are your mother and your little sister? Why don't you come out to work?"

Su Chendong understood that his mother and younger sister couldn't tell anyone about their work for Su Rui's family, so he just said: "Mother and younger sister will come out later."

Old Man Su frowned, and Lao Gao said unwillingly, "Summer harvest is as important as autumn harvest. It's a race against time. How can you be lazy at home?"

Su Chendong didn't like that old man Su called his mother, "My mother and younger sister are not lazy, but they have to do some things at home, and they will come over after finishing."

Grandpa Su looked at his eldest grandson in surprise, and found that at some point in time, he had already surpassed him in height, and the childishness on his face gradually receded.After a moment of silence, he shook his head, turned around and walked away.

Su Chendong looked at Old Master Su who turned and walked away, he didn't know what he was thinking, his face was full of loneliness, and then he returned to his previous appearance.

When Mr. Su passed by Su Rui, he stopped, pointed to the mule cart on the ground and said, "Is that your family's?"

"Yes."

Grandpa Su nodded, pointed to Meng Mingzhou on the other side of the ground, and said, "I'll ask him to pack wheat for my house later, and then send it home."

Su Rui pulled her face directly, "Grandpa, Meng Mingzhou is my cousin, not your servant, why should he be asked to work for you?"

Today, old man Su was refuted one after another by his juniors, his face was so dark that he could drip water, and he stared at Su Rui with his eyes wide open.

Not to be outdone, Su Rui looked directly at him, "If grandpa wants to use the mule cart, I can lend it to you, but it's impossible for my cousin to work for you."

Mr. Su, "Are you really not afraid that I will sue you?"

Su Rui spread her hands, "Grandpa, please do whatever you want, how about I send you to the Yamen now?"

Mr. Su hesitated for a long time, but finally angrily shook off his sleeves and left.

Then Meng Mingzhou came near Su Rui and asked, "What happened just now? You and your grandfather are about to quarrel?"

Su Rui just shook her head, "It's okay, I just said that I want to use a mule cart to load wheat."

Meng Mingzhou felt that Su Rui was not telling the truth, because he caught a glimpse of Mr. Su pointing at him out of the corner of his eye.

But Su Rui didn't mention it, so he didn't ask.

Su Rui thought that old man Su would not think about using a mule cart because he was angry with him, but in the end he asked Uncle Su to come and lead the mule cart.

"Tsk tsk, this mule is really good. Girl Su Rui, you have money to buy a mule for yourself to enjoy, but you don't know how to buy it for your grandma. It's really unfilial."

Su Rui sneered, "Yes, I'm not as filial as my uncle."

Uncle Su showed a smug smile and was about to say something. Su Rui continued: "My uncle is so filial. Grandpa is already 60 years old. I was afraid that he would be in poor health after staying at home for a long time, so I specially asked him to work in the fields. ,Exercise."

Uncle Su was speechless for a moment, stared at Su Rui, reached out to grab the whip, and turned to leave.

Su Rui, "Uncle, remember to return the mule cart on time, otherwise I will have to report to the Yamen."

Uncle Su paused, walked quickly, and shouted, "Got it."

Su Rui snorted, how could she not know what Uncle Su was thinking?It's nothing more than wanting to confuse her family's mule.
