Rebirth Farmhouse

Chapter 177

This year's solar term is late, there is a leap in April, and the wheat does not mature so early.The family has been busy for a month, and it is more convenient to have a donkey cart, but it is also somewhat effective.At least the flower hedge is up, and it's growing lushly, with hollyhocks, mirabilis, impatiens, and oleanders everywhere.Like Zhiqi, Xiuxian collected a lot of seeds and planted them all over the fields.

When one month was up, shopkeeper Feng asked someone to pick up the goods once, and Xiuyao made seven slings of money.For the Qin family, this is not a small amount of money, but because they have foreign debts, they dare not spend it casually. Besides, the family has just separated and is so poor. If they spend so much money to buy things all at once, it will easily cause trouble.So Mrs. Liu hid all the money in a pickle urn, naturally there was no pickle in it, and no one noticed when several small urns were put together.Even if the thieves come, it is naturally an important place to tumbling.

But Mrs. Zhang also got the letter from the second aunt and the third aunt. She was furious when she learned from Qin Xian that it was Xiuyao and Zhang Luo who made money from this stall and left her family aside to make money for outsiders. Said that the big house got seven hanging coins!But he got seven slings of money in one breath, and there will be more follow-ups later.

The third aunt winked at the second aunt and asked her to pour a bowl of water for her mother-in-law, but she sighed, "Mom, I can't say anything if you say such a thing. But we are a family after all, and the sister-in-law actually put such a Let others do good things. I heard that Zhang Guifang spends seven cents a day on firewood. What kind of firewood do you burn in this season? Isn’t it free? Tell me that my sister-in-law doesn’t have you and father in her heart, she only thinks about her mother’s family , earn money, don’t give up food and clothing, don’t come to honor your parents, don’t you use it to fill the holes in your mother’s mill?”

Mrs. Zhang was already so angry that her liver hurts, but now it's even worse, when the third aunt and second aunt say that, the fire will go up.

She jumped off the kang, "No, I have to ask your sister-in-law, the past is over, and now I have a new job, why don't you help my family."

The second aunt chimed in, "Mother, you have to ask her to return the money, or at least divide the money into four parts, and give three parts to Mother."

The third aunt stopped Zhang Shi, and persuaded: "Mother, if you go, you will be alone, you'd better wait for my father, you and my father have a good discussion, and see if you can come up with a charter."

The second aunt also said yes, so she believed what the third aunt said, and immediately changed the subject to help the third aunt persuade Mrs. Zhang.

Mrs. Zhang was so angry that she was trembling all over, seven hangs of money, several times, Dafang can get at least twenty hangs of money, how much is this?This can buy two cows.Now that the family has no cattle and no land, what is the eldest daughter-in-law thinking?She snorted, "Then tell me, what should I do?"

The third aunt asked the second aunt to look out the rear window so that no one could eavesdrop, "Mom, let me tell you, you might as well be like this..."

Mrs. Zhang nodded as she listened. Although the daughter-in-law was stunned and the third daughter-in-law was raped, at this time, in Mrs. Zhang's heart, Mrs. Liu was the most thoughtful, shrewd and least sympathetic to her, so she felt a sense of common hatred .

From Kentian, Xiuyao's family has been busy day and night, clearing out a piece of land of about two mu. Although it can't be used for farming, it can be done on the spot by scratching the land, splashing water, and pressing it again.In addition to being used when harvesting crops, it can also be used to dry things on weekdays. It is smooth and flat, without floating soil, rocks and stones, which is very convenient.

According to Xiuyao's plan, she still needs to build a house here, but now that she doesn't have enough money, she can only build a house.Taking advantage of the heat in summer, the house built with bricks and stones can be built to shelter from the wind, and there is no need to suffer from the cold in winter.In addition, it is necessary to build chicken coops, rabbit coops, and sheep pens, all of which should be made of ordinary adobe.

The place is enough, the only thing lacking is the material.

Xiuyao passed by the original farm and saw some beans growing inside. She couldn't help being curious, she came back and asked Qin Dafu, "Father, how do my grandfather's farm grow beans? He doesn't hold back the farm anymore?" She is busy working with stones, and she has never been there.When the family was separated, they said that they wanted a partnership to control the market. After all, there is no division in the market, and everyone uses it together. Now that grandpa does not control the market, does that mean that he should use it for his own use?

Recently, Xiuyao was afraid that her second aunt and third aunt would instigate mother-in-law to plot against her if she knew that her family had made money, so she was always on guard, but Mrs. Zhang didn't come to make trouble, and her family was busy, so Xiuyao didn't care.

Qin Dafu focused on his own field, and didn't pay much attention, "I don't have all the seeds, so I guess it won't be that big."

Xiuyao snorted, "It must be because they don't want us to use them this year, so they deliberately don't suppress them. Anyway, we don't need them."

Qin Dafu smiled, "Your grandfather is not that kind of person, don't think about it."

Xiuyao didn't think about it, she went to see it for several days, but her grandfather didn't hold back, and asked Qin Chan, he also said that he might share it with the third grandfather's house.Doesn't this make it clear that you don't want to use it for your own home?Grandpa is too eccentric like this, he is the one who said to split up the family, and the big house was split up, but in the end he was still calculating everywhere.However, anyway, if you have a place at home, you don't have to squeeze with them.

In a blink of an eye, the wheat harvest came, and the work of weaving gloves stopped first, and everyone was busy with wheat.Although Qin Ye didn't have a good hand, he still came back to help, even if he couldn't cut the wheat, he could just help with a meal and a fire, and Qin Xian also had a holiday to come back to help.

Xiuyao's family only has ten acres of wheat, which is not much at all for these families, but harvesting is still slow.Each with a sickle, the two adults only harvested an acre of land in a day, and had to bundle it. Fortunately, there was a donkey cart this time, which could be pulled to the field.

Early in the morning, everyone was busy working in the field, Qin Sanshun came over and shouted: "Brother, Dad asked me to take the donkey cart over and use it first, and bring the wheat back after two trips."

Xiuyao immediately said: "Sandada, we are about to harvest wheat."

Qin Sanshun glared at her, "Children care so much."

He was sure that Qin Dafu would not have the cheek to refuse, so he took the donkey cart away, and Qin Dafu really couldn't say no to it, so he asked Qin Sanshun to take the donkey away.As a result, it was time to pull the wheat here, but he hadn't sent it back yet.Xiuxian let out a few breaths, and said to Qin Dafu: "Father, why don't you go and ask for it back?"

Qin Dafu went there, but he didn't come back, and Qin Ye went to look for him, but he didn't come back.

Xiuyao shouted: "Second sister, you go, father and elder brother are afraid that they will be dragged to work." Those two were honest, it was meat buns beating dogs and never returning, she was so mad!

Because Qin Xian had a falling out with Mrs. Zhang and his third aunt, he basically refused to face him, so he won't go.Xiuyao and Xiuxian went to look for it.

They guessed right, father and elder brother were asked to help there, and the third aunt actually mocked elder brother, "Daye, you are a big man, you work really carefully, like a big girl."

Qin Ye was sorry, although his right hand felt better, but within three months, he didn't dare to use force. Besides, even if it got better, it was only the strength of a ten-year-old child, and it didn't matter.He said: "Third Aunt, my hand is not healed yet, so I can't help at first, my wheat is still waiting to be pulled in the field." He threw down the bundle of wheat he picked up, and walked over to Qin Dafu who was busy Said: "Father, our wheat is still waiting in the field, don't pull it to the field late, and don't scatter the grains." And this donkey is in the hands of Sandada, it is almost aggrieved, it is driven to go fast, and the donkey is still in the field. If you had to whip the whip from time to time, the donkey would be sweaty after pulling it twice. This was simply cruelty to animals, which made Qin Ye feel distressed when he saw it.

Qin Dafu was in a bit of a dilemma. Dad also needed help here. This year is a good year, even if the spring is cold, the wheat harvest will be bumper.Father's two plots of land are ripening quickly, and the grains have already been lost. If they are not recovered, a lot of grain will be wasted, and the field here is small, so there is no way to let go of the grain.

Qin Ye frowned and reminded him in a low voice: "Father, mother and sisters are still waiting in the field, I'll call you." As a result, he was also left to work, what a deal.

Qin Dafu hesitated for a moment, feeling very embarrassed, "Why don't you drive the donkey cart over first." The family's major affairs are all in the hands of the Liu family, the marriage of the children and Yaoyao's affairs, he is also bitten to death so that his mother will not interfere of.But it's not a big problem to help with some work, and it's not taking money from the family. Besides, both parents have opinions on him. He feels uncomfortable, so he wants to help with some work, so that parents can feel better.

Qin Ye went to lead the donkey, and Qin Sanshun said: "Daye, wait, I have another trip."

Qin Ye saw that it was almost noon, and his field hadn't been mowed yet, so he said, "Sandada, just wait."

Qin Sanshun became angry all of a sudden, "You are a great cause, why are you so unruly, a junior talking to an elder like this?"

After Qin Dafu heard this, he hurriedly asked Qin Ye to give way, and they could pull the wheat in the afternoon.

Qin Ye's hands were not good, and immediately he was not big enough to pull Qin Sanshun, so Qin Sanshun snorted, "I'll tie you up." He drove the donkey cart away.Qin Ye was a little sad. None of his grandpas cared about his situation. He felt cold towards them, but he still didn't regret saving his second uncle. He was not at ease either.He did it for his own peace of mind.

But now he can't give in, his father has been enduring them all this time, he can't hide his face, and he has been manipulated since the family was separated. If he doesn't support his mother and younger sisters, then this family will never have a bright future.He immediately stepped forward to snatch the rein back, and said, "Sandada, my grandfather lent us this donkey to handle. Whoever wants to handle it can do it. First, give three catties of bean cakes. We have separated, so you can There should be a separation. The wheat in our family has burst in the field, so we have to hurry to the field."

Qin Sanshun got angry, and scolded: "You, a foreigner, don't you have Sandada in your eyes, right?" Then he called Qin Dafu, "Brother, look at Daye, is this still plausible?"

Qin Dafu quickly persuaded Qin Ye: "Daye, let you go to Sandada first."

Qin Ye is also in a hurry, if his father has sent a message to ask Sandada to pull first, then let them finish pulling first today, and his family will have to pull wheat at night. People can make do with it, but this donkey can't eat so big I was so tired that I only pulled several times a day and had to rest, and I couldn't bear to spin the donkey continuously during the day and night.

He couldn't help saying angrily, "If this is the case, then I might as well send the donkey cart back to my grandfather's house. It's not from our family division, and no one is qualified to lend it to others." He said this, He was dissatisfied with Qin Dafu, he was incompetent, he couldn't earn money in a donkey cart, and he gave his father-in-law's money to others, and he didn't care about his own ability, so he came to take care of him.

Although Qin Dafu was honest and kind, he was not stupid. Naturally, he heard that his son's words were meaningless, and he also darkened his face, but he didn't want to blame his son, so he kept silent.

At this time, Xiuyao and Xiuxian came over and shouted: "Father, our wheat is all rotten in the ground, no one cares about it? Do you want my grandpa and my Er Dada to go harvest the wheat for us first?"

Qin Dafu saw his daughter shouting, so frightened he rushed up to meet him: "Come here." Then he went up to take the donkey's rein from Qin Sanshun's hand, and said, "I'll go first, or your sister-in-law should scold you!" .” Then he drove the car away.

When the eldest brother made a move, Qin Sanshun couldn't hold back anymore. He spat bitterly at their backs, "Bah, I'm still a brother, and my brother is not as close as my own mother-in-law. What are they all!"

At this time, the third aunt also scolded: "I will tell my mother later, that our family's wheat is bursting into the field, and Dafang's donkey cart is not willing to give up."
