farm daughter-in-law

Chapter 158

It's the busy season, when every household in the village has no rest, it's hard to go out to work, and it's not easy at home. For example, Zhang Xihua is the only one left in the house now. Apart from taking Yuge, she needs to be careful about everything in the house. Taking care of her, she was busy every day from getting up to going to bed.

Fortunately, only the Xiakang land adjacent to Yangliu Village is left unharvested by the He family. After finishing that piece of land, this difficult time will finally be over.

Zhang Xihua glanced at the sky. In the evening, the sun slanted to the west and slowly sank. The colorful clouds changed into several shapes in an instant. It won't take long for the sky to darken. He Sheng and the others should be coming home soon, right?Zhang Xihua thought about it, then lowered her head and swept the remaining rice grains into the bamboo baskets. After a few days of exposure to the sun, they can be put into the warehouse.

This year, there is plenty of rain and sunshine, and every household in the village has a bumper harvest of rice. Compared with last year, there is nearly half more grain. Seeing pedestrians with happy faces.

He Dashuan and He Zeng's old couple are also very happy. The first batch of rice harvested by the family has already been put into the warehouse. Two days ago, He Zeng sent two bags of new grain to grind the rice. My family eats.

The rice milled from new grains has a special fragrance, which cannot be compared with the taste of old rice. Zhang Xihua kneaded new rice half an hour ago to make rice cakes, and they have been steamed in a drawer. They can be eaten when they get home.

All the grains spread out to dry in the yard have been harvested, and some grain fragments inevitably fell on the body, sticking to the clothes and sticking to the clothes. In the main room, Brother Yu opened his arms to be hugged by her. Zhang Xihua softly comforted Brother Yu, She shook the hem of her clothes, went around to the room to get the clothes and planned to take a quick shower.

It took less than a quarter of an hour, when she came out fully dressed, He Sheng was already sitting in the main room and taking a nap with his eyes closed. His whole face was dark and thin, and there was still a round of faint bruises under his eyes. He heard her footsteps. Approaching, He Sheng slowly opened his eyes.

Zhang Xihua asked softly: "Father and mother haven't returned yet?"

"It will be later, we can have dinner first." He Sheng said, he moved the recliner and sat next to Brother Yu's small bed, and when he was talking, he supported Brother Yu who was about to roll out with one hand, and Brother Yu grabbed Daddy He gnawed on his arm, leaving a puddle of saliva on his arm.

He Sheng smiled, and gently moved Brother Yu away.

The body was clean, Zhang Xihua immediately picked up Brother Yu, and said: "Then you go wash it earlier, I will leave food for parents."

After hearing what his wife said, He Sheng stood up and went to fetch water from the kitchen.

Not long after, He Yuanyuan stepped into the house, and she said loudly, "Sister-in-law, do you have any soup today? I'm starving to death."

Zhang Xihua pursed her lips and said with a smile: "Yes, your favorite papaya and crucian carp soup is stewed on the stove. If you are hungry, you can drink it in a bowl first."

He Yuanyuan cheered and rushed to the kitchen.

Before Zhang Xihua could make a move, He Yuanyuan took the initiative to set out the bowls and chopsticks. There was an occasional wind blowing in the air at night. Eating in the dining hall would be better than eating in the open-air yard under the moonlight, so He Yuanyuan put the dining table in the yard again.

Uncovering the soup pot, the milky white fish soup smelled delicious. He Yuanyuan immediately filled a bowl full of soup for himself, and drank it with his head down.

After finishing one bowl, she filled another bowl.

He Yuanyuan rubbed his belly and exclaimed: "Sister-in-law, I can finally sleep late tomorrow, please don't wake me up."

After finishing the field work, it is really light.

Zhang Xihua cast a helpless glance at her sister-in-law, and said with a smile, "Don't worry, I won't bother you to sleep tomorrow."

After He Sheng took a bath, the three of them sat in the courtyard for dinner. He Yuanyuan couldn't eat much because he drank several bowls of soup in a row. It happened that there was steamed rice cake today. Eat rice cakes when you’re hungry, I’m exhausted, I’m going to sleep first.”

She left the words and walked into her room, closing the door behind her.

He Sheng was also very tired, leaving Zhang Xihua to clean up the mess after dinner, he hugged Brother Yu and immediately went back to his room to rest.He Sheng quickly closed his eyes and fell asleep. Brother Yu lay beside him, grabbing his clothes and tugging non-stop, but he didn't wake him up.

Zhang Xihua waited until her parents-in-law returned home after eating and cleaned the stove before returning to her room to sleep.

He Dashuan and He Zeng stayed in the field to do some finishing work, an hour later than their sons and daughters, the house was quiet at that time, only Zhang Xihua sat in the main room and took a nap, and when he heard the knock on the door, he immediately opened the door for his father-in-law and mother-in-law. courtyard gate.

When they were full, He Zeng said to Zhang Xihua: "Go to sleep, you will have a day off at home tomorrow, you don't have to get up so early to make meals."

When Zhang Xihua went back to the room, she heard her husband, who had never snored, make a low nasal sound. He was in a deep sleep, and when she rolled over him, her husband didn't move.

Obviously very tired.

He Sheng woke up as soon as the rooster crowed at home. He fell asleep very early yesterday.

He Sheng held her down and said, "Mother said that today I will rest at home, so it doesn't matter if I get up later."

"I got used to it, and now I can't sleep even if I want to." Zhang Xihua pursed her lips and smiled.

This is not hypocritical, she has already developed a habit of getting up at this time, unless she is too tired to wake up that day, even if she wants to sleep for an extra quarter of an hour, she can't correct it.

On this point, Zhang Xihua is sincerely envious of her sister-in-law, who sleeps very well.

He Yuanyuan used to be the last one to get up at home, and she often had to be woken up by someone. If she didn't wake her up, she could sleep until the sun was up. That's why He Yuanhui hated her little sister's lazy appearance.

Seizing the opportunity, He Yuanhui would reprimand He Yuanyuan, and after the reprimand, she felt that her tone was too harsh, so He Yuanhui had to speak up and reason with He Yuanyuan with all her heart.

He Yuanyuan has complicated feelings about her eldest sister, she thinks her eldest sister is quite annoying.Therefore, He Yuanhui said two days ago that he would take He Yuanyuan as a guest for a day after the family's work was over, but He Yuanyuan refused to go no matter what.

She doesn't like to get along with her eldest sister, she feels pressured.

The younger sister didn't want to go there, so He Yuanhui had no choice but to let her go.
