Farmhouse pretty cook

Chapter 1164 Rainstorm
But Ma Juan was in a hurry, and slapped him on the back fiercely, "You elm-headed melon seed, the village chief has said it so clearly, why don't you understand, as the head of the village, our family will no longer have to suffer If we suffer, we can also enjoy happiness!"

Fang Youcai was a little dazed by her slap like a cattail leaf fan, seeing that she wanted to slap her again, he was in a hurry, "Hiss! It's alright, don't slap me, I'll apply for the Zhuangtou's business That’s it, but it’s hard to say whether it will be chosen or not.”

Shi Anping shrank his neck, pinched the cigarette rod, and took a sip, "I'll go and say something nice to you later, if I wasn't the village head now, this person wouldn't be your turn, that's all, go back and clean up. Tomorrow, I will go to the county with me, and I have to find someone to ask and inquire about the situation!"

Shi Anping is the head of the village. According to the rules, he cannot participate in the competition of Zhuangtou, and there are many things in the village. Zhuangtou is only responsible for taking care of the land for the landlord's family, collecting rent, and organizing spring plowing and autumn harvest.

Shi Anping didn't know more about the details, and thought it was just a little work for the farmers.

If he knew that Zhuangtou still had to read and write, he would have given up the idea early on.

But in any case, with Zhuangtou's incident, many poor people saw hope.

It is too hard to live off the land.

Who wouldn't want to live a more comfortable life, earn more money, and live a better life.

Fang Shiyi didn't know about Zhuangtou, even if she knew, at her age, she would definitely not be able to do it.

But Niu Geng paid attention to it. He had read a Three Character Classic, and he knew how to use the abacus. When he was a teenager, he started a small business in the county.

The weather was extremely hot tonight, and in the middle of the night, it started to rain.

The pouring rain seemed to fall from the sky, endlessly.

Thunder rumbled, and lightning followed one another.

Fang Shiyi didn't pay much attention to it at first, thinking it was just a thunderstorm, and it wouldn't clear up the next day?

It's a pity that she was wrong in her estimation. When it was dawn, the rainstorm didn't abate, but it was getting bigger and bigger anyway.

Do you think that in such a heavy rain, people, like animals, have to hide at home to avoid the rain?
It was a big mistake, the young laborers in almost every household were wearing coir raincoats and walking briskly in the rain.

They get the fields and take care of the crops in the fields at home to prevent the crops in the fields from being flooded, and the livestock should not be frightened.

Fang Qi was lying on the window, looking outside, with fear in his eyes, the day his parents died was also such a rainy day, it was raining heavily.

After that, she and elder sister were very afraid of heavy rain, but this time, why is elder sister not afraid?

"Sister, why are you wearing a coir raincoat too? It's raining so much, where are you going?" Fang Qi glanced down inadvertently, and saw that Fang Shiyi had put on his raincoat, his shoes had been taken off, and his trousers were rolled up. When she got up, it looked like she was about to go out, but she was startled.

Fang Shiyi tidied up his clothes calmly, "You and little sister stay at home and don't go anywhere. I've already carried the little eagle into the main room, but our donkey shed is too simple, I'm afraid the donkey won't be able to bear it." , just go out and have a look, come back soon, don't worry, nothing will happen!"

After finishing speaking, without waiting for Fang Qi's objection, he braved the heavy rain and broke into the rain curtain.

Fang Shiyi squinted his eyes and looked at the vegetable garden on one side. Sure enough, he saw several corn seedlings fell down, and some green onions that had just been planted were also washed away by the rain.

Look at the small ditch on the other side. In a short period of time, a lot of water has accumulated, and the flood cannot be drained for a while, and it is almost overflowing to the road.

On the road in the village, someone hurried past without looking at her too much.

The donkey was visibly disturbed, kicking back and forth in the shed.

Because the shed is simple and crude, it has been completely wet by the rain, and there is water everywhere.

Fang Shishi was really worried that the shed would fall down. Although Dumb built it as firmly as possible when he built it, it was made of wood after all, and it couldn't withstand the summer storm.

There was no other way, so Fang Shiyi had to untie the rope for it, and dragged the donkey to the hall.

Moved the table away again to make room for it.

Although most of the donkeys were a bit stupid, the one she picked up didn't seem so stupid either.

Knowing that this is the owner's house, he didn't dare to twist and move, and stood obediently on the side, even the little eagle didn't look at it, only flicking its tail occasionally.

"Sister, do you still want to go out? What if you catch a cold?" Fang Qi asked worriedly.

"It's okay, I'll go to the village to have a look, don't come out." Fang Shiyi ran out of the door again against the heavy rain.

With such a heavy rain, Niu Dahai and Xiao Jieba naturally knew that it was impossible to go to the ferry again, so they would not come to look for her.

When Fang Shiyi turned a corner, he saw two black shadows moving in the watermelon field of Fang Youcai's family from a distance.

After seeing it clearly, I found out that it was Fang Youcai and his wife.

He was holding the watermelon from the ground non-stop, and he didn't even bother to put on the coir raincoat again when it fell off.

Once the watermelon is soaked in water, it will rot. They have no choice but to grab as much as they can.

Niu Geng was hurrying over from behind. When he looked up, he saw Fang Shiyi, and he was startled, "Eleven, why are you here? Go home quickly, it's raining too much, be careful not to fall into the ditch! "

"I'm fine, Uncle, how is your land?" Fang Shiyi asked him in a loud voice.

When it came to the fields, Niu Geng was in a bad mood, but he didn't want to talk to her more, and it was useless to talk about it!
"Go back quickly! The field is fine. If it rains like this again, the farmers may die!" Niu Geng felt as if a boulder was pressing on his heart.

They are tenants, renting and planting the land of the landlord's family, and have to pay the land rent every year.

Regardless of whether this year is a bumper harvest or a famine, land rent is indispensable.

If I had known this earlier, I might as well have been a farm laborer, so I could get my wages and not worry about the lack of harvest in the fields.

Niu Geng didn't care to talk to her, and ran away quickly, stepping on the mud.

Fang Shishi wiped the water off his face, and walked around the village again, dredging a few ditches along the way.

They are all blocked by the washed down branches and dead leaves. If they are not dredged in time, they will cause blockage.

When she came back from running around, there was nowhere to dry on her body, even if she was wearing a coir raincoat, it was useless.

"Sister, quickly change your wet clothes, I'll make ginger soup for you!" Fang Qi saw that she was soaked all over, and was really worried that she would get sick. It's fine for poor people to eat and drink less, just don't get sick.

"Well, you bring in the small charcoal stove, don't cook ginger soup outside, you both drink some later, the humidity is heavy, and neither of you can get sick." After Fang Shiyi finished speaking, he quickly ran into the house , took off the wet clothes and hung them aside, and put on a casual set.

Anyway, there were no outsiders at home, and she was so young that no one could see her.

Take the wet clothes outside to wring out the water, and then hang them in the east room to dry.

The little girl sat on the kang, looking at her for a moment.

Seeing that she seemed to be leaving, he stretched out his arm, wanting her to hug her.

Fang Shishi loosened her long hair, bent down and picked her up.

The little person has weight, and when he hugs him, he can feel it.

Fang Qi has already set up the stove. Although the room is not cold, the humidity is very heavy, which makes people feel extremely wet and cold.

Fang Shishi put the little girl on a small stool and sat on the small stool. Seeing that the rain was still falling outside, he turned his head and looked at the donkey standing beside him. not good at all.

"Little girl, don't move around. I'll take the donkey to the east room. It's bigger there. I hope it won't shit or pee." awkward.

"Sister, why don't you just let it stay there! Anyway, the main room has already smelled, and when the rain subsides, take it out later, light a stick of incense, and let the smell inhale." Fang Qi held a large The kitchen knife cuts small slices of ginger. It is cut on a large bench with a chopping board on it.

Fang Shiyi walked over and patted the donkey's head, "Our house is still small and needs to be expanded, but it's raining so hard, I'm afraid it will take two days before we can start business."

She wanted to earn enough money as soon as possible, pay off the debts she owed, and then tidy up the house, live with her two younger sisters, and for the time being, she would put everything else behind.

"Sister, don't worry, money can't be earned at once, our life is much better now, we have food and a warm kang, what else is there to be dissatisfied with?" Fang Qi put ginger slices Into a small pot, boil slowly.

There is no brown sugar at home, so I can only drink pure ginger soup.
