The beautiful pastoral field of Jiangmen girl

Chapter 480 Harvesting Wheat (1)
Under the courtyard wall, Madam Li's subordinates squatted down in a row.On the ground in the courtyard, there were a few books and some letters.

Steward Gu stepped forward, "Miss, all the books and letters found are here."

Qing Shu gave the order without thinking, "Burn it." She walked out of the yard, and immediately saw Xiaozhi County and the officials behind him, as well as five or six men who did not wear official uniforms.She didn't speak, walked to the side, and got into her carriage.

The carriage moved, and Qing Shu raised a corner of the curtain to look back.Xiao Zhi was standing there, and the officials were escorting out Madam Li's subordinates, and the comatose Madam Li and the mad A Yuan were also escorted out.She lowered the curtain and felt that everything was unreal.

After entering Xiao's mansion, Qing Shu said that she was tired, so she went directly to the guest room to lie down, and asked the maid to put down the bed curtain.She closed her eyes and told herself to forget "Zhou Su Handbook", but the more she wanted to forget, the more clear the contents of the book became in her mind.Then she started thinking wildly.Has An Rongzhou read the contents of the book?Was An Rongzhou really sent by Zhou Boyan to protect her?He is the emperor's spy.What would Zhou Boyan think if he knew that absurd prophecy?Will he tell his uncle the emperor?Do they have a future?

On the farms of Gufu and the fields of Xiaogujia Village and Dagujia Village, people are harvesting winter wheat with joyful faces.

The agricultural officials from Jinyang City came two days in advance.He was walking on the field with a bag on his back, first picked six or seven ears of wheat from the Gufu Farm and carefully collected them, then went to Xiaogujia Village and Dagujia Village, and picked some ears of wheat to collect them. .

Yu Xianfu, the local parent official, was also there.He brought the official messenger over early in the morning, and he was standing under the scorching sun discussing the harvesting winter wheat with the onlookers.

Xiaozhi County, who arrived late, got off the carriage and saw the golden ears of wheat and the busy farmers in front of him, with smile lines on his usually serious face.

After staying in the county for three days, Qing Shu bid farewell to Zhixian Xiao and Mrs. Xiao.Mrs. Xiao tried her best to persuade her to stay, but Qingshu explained that the winter wheat in the field was about to be harvested, and she had to go back and watch it in person.Only then did Madam Xiao let him go.At the same time, Zhixian County asked Qingshu to leave a day late, because he wanted to send Qingshu back in person, and take a look at Qingshu's winter wheat by the way.Therefore, Qing Shu stayed in the county for one more day, and left the county with Xiaozhi County when the city gate opened early on the fifth day and returned to Kangxi Town.

Xiaozhi County was thinking about the winter wheat in the Gu Mansion, and came out of the Gu Mansion without even drinking a sip of tea, and hurried to Zhuangzi.

Yu Xianfu came up to welcome him, and greeted Xiao Zhixian who got off the carriage, "The student has met his teacher."

"You don't need to be too polite. Where is Master Liu?" Xiaozhi County looked around for the figure of the agricultural official, just wanting to know how the harvest of winter wheat on the farm in the ancient mansion compares with last year?Of course, the harvest has only just begun, and the actual yield is not yet known.But he was in a hurry and wanted to hear what the agricultural official estimated the output would be.

"Master Liu went to the wheat field in Xiaogujia Village." Yu Xianfu knew what Xiaozhi County wanted to ask, "Master Liu has estimated that the yield of wheat fields in Gufu will be one or two buckets higher than last year, Dagu The yield per mu of wheat planted by the villagers of Jiacun and Xiaogujia Village is comparable to that of Gufu last year."

"Good, good, good." Xiao Zhixian was happy to hear that, and said three good things in a row.He walked into the wheat field, bent down to grab a piece of wheat straw with a happy face, and rubbed the ears of wheat on the wheat straw in his palm.The grain of wheat, separated from the ear, is large and full.He couldn't stop nodding.

Yu Xianfu followed Xiaozhi County, took the old ears of wheat from the master and dragged them in his palm, "My lord, these are last year's ears of wheat, compare and match."

When Xiaozhi County and Yu Xianfu were discussing wheat, not far away, Qing Shu, who came with Xiaozhi County, stood on the field, looked at the four figures who ran into the wheat field and shouted, "Be careful." Do not touch the wheat grass that has not been cut down, and do not step on the wheat ears that have been cut down. The wheat grains fall into the ground and cannot be harvested.”

Chen Qiaojiang shouted loudly without looking back, "I got it, I got it, my sister is too wordy."

Qingyang quit, "Who are you talking about?"

Luo Xiaorong and Hao who were running behind the two of them booed, "Yes, yes, who are you talking about?"

Chen Qiaojiang knew that he couldn't answer this question, so he turned around and ran to Guanshi Wu who was bending over to cut the wheat, "Give me the sickle, I'll try."

Manager Wu didn't dare to give him a sickle, he kept cutting the wheat with his hands, and he opened his mouth to refuse, "This is not acceptable. The young lady told me that you are not allowed to touch the sickle."

Chen Qiaojiang cut it, and stopped thinking about the sickle.Because he knew that Qingshu always said what he said, and if he said he couldn't do it, he couldn't do it.If he dares to be clever and go against Qing Shu's wishes, what awaits him is not only the punishment of twisting his ears, but also the punishment of walking around the mansion three times while holding the wooden board with the words "I was wrong".He thinks it doesn't matter if you twist your ears, a man is not afraid of that pain.The other would not work, he thought that would be embarrassing, too humiliating for a man.

At this time, the bullock cart pulling the wheat grass arrived.

Qingyang rushed to the front, "I'm coming, I'm coming, I want to lead the cattle."

Wu Xiaoshan agreed with a sigh, handed the reins of the scalper to Qingyang, and then said, "Master, the younger one said stop, you have to stop the scalper. The younger one said go, you have to drive the scalper forward."

Qingyang said he got it, and happily led the scalper in the cart forward.

Luo Xiaorong grabbed a few stalks of wheat straw that had pinched off the ears of wheat and waved to drive the scalper, trying to make the scalper go faster.The wheatgrass hit the ox without pain, but the ox ignored it and continued to walk slowly, wagging its tail once and for all.

Seeing something interesting, Chen Qiaojiang immediately ran over, climbed onto the slowly moving bullock cart, stood in the middle of the bullock cart with his hips on his hips and shouted, "General Chen is here, all officers and men obey orders."

Hearing this, Qingyang turned around and shouted, "Go down, go down, you can't even beat me, you can't even be a soldier, what kind of general should you be?"

Chen Qiaojiang said with his nostrils upturned, "I am, I am the general."

Hao threw the clods from the field at him, "Father is the general, you are not."

"Stinky boy, you want to be beaten." Chen Qiaojiang jumped off the bullock cart as he spoke.

Hao made a face at him, turned and ran away.

Qing Shu stood on the ground, watching them play happily, so she gave up the idea of ​​bringing them into the Zhuangzi, and asked Steward Ding to keep an eye on them so that they would not make trouble, and kept half of the entourage down, and brought half with him. His entourage entered Zhuangzi.

The men in the Zhuangzi are busy in the field, and the women in the Zhuangzi are busy around the stove and the well.

There are washing and drying clothes by the well.In the simple thatched shed built in the courtyard, there are people picking and washing vegetables, some processing the freshly delivered pork, and some making noodles.This thatched shed occupies half the area of ​​the courtyard, and is composed of sixteen wooden pillars with the thickness of a bowl and a thatched roof.Now that it's getting hotter, the men don't want to eat in the dining hall, so they built this shed.It is airy and cool, and it is a good place to eat for those who work under the hot sun.
