There was no time to admire the heroine's extraordinary talent. The rain suddenly intensified on the last stretch of the journey home, and the big raindrops hitting their bodies were urgent and painful.
Meiberry and his family also had to concentrate on rushing home.
When the last batch of wheat returned home, almost half of it was wet.
After deliberately putting away the tables, chairs and benches in the living room and placing the wheat that had been temporarily soaked by the rain on the ground, Mei Youqian and Mei Mei looked at the wet wheat on the ground in silence.
"The ones stored in my space are dry. It won't hurt to take them out when the weather clears up, but these..."
Mayberry stared at the rain-soaked wheat with some confusion.
She really doesn't know how to deal with these things. Her parents said that wheat will turn black and moldy when it gets wet. Do you think she should throw it away?
However, it is not good to just throw it away.
Meiberry was already confused. Her eyes wandered towards the mule cub who had started to sleep in the yard. Meiberry quickly withdrew her gaze again.
No, no, she was worried that something would go wrong if she ate it for her own mules and chickens.
What can be done in case of thinning_(：3 ∠)_
"Drink the ginger tea first, hurry up!"
Wei Meili went to the kitchen as soon as she got home and made a pot of thick brown sugar and ginger tea from the kitchen.
Wei Meili urged everyone in the family to get a bowl quickly, and then said: "After being exposed to the heavy rain for so long, drink more. Go to bed and take a nap to rest and sweat."
Meiberry took the ginger syrup and drank it while pinching her nose. Finally, she couldn't bear it and stuck out her tongue.
No matter how many times she drank this ginger taste, she still couldn't stand it.
After working all night, looking at the color of the water outside the house, and the faint light on the horizon, Meiberry couldn't help but yawned. She would wait until she woke up to talk about everything.
Meiberry went to bed obediently. When she woke up naturally, she felt very hot. The tip of her nose smelled the fresh fragrance of wheat mixed with earth, which made her feel like she was in a wheat field under the scorching sun.
Um?
where am I?
Opening her eyes suddenly, Meiberry looked at the familiar beams of her home and then breathed a sigh of relief.
She reached up and wiped the hot sweat from her forehead.
Then she felt a tingling sensation on Mayberry's arm when she raised her hand. When she turned her head, her eyes widened instantly!
For some unknown reason, Mei Berry discovered that except for the quilt on the kang where she was sleeping, the rest of the kang was covered with wheat ears!
"Is this a kang used to dry wheat?"
Meiberry subconsciously touched the kang under her body. No wonder she woke up from the heat just now.
The sound of rain outside the window was not too quiet. Meibei got off the kang and stretched out her hand to open the window a little. The refreshing coolness blew from the outside, which immediately made Meibei, who was feeling dizzy from the heat, completely wake up.
She was completely awake and it was at this time that she heard the voices in the main room again.
When she opened the door and looked outside, Mei Mei saw her third uncle Mei Sanma chatting with her father and the others in the main room.
The umbrella hanging against the wall of the main room was still dripping with rainwater. It looked like her third uncle had just arrived.
Mei Sanma and her father were sitting in the middle of a circle of wheat, and they learned about each other's harvest.
"Thanks to Youyou's great strength, he carried more than three to four hundred kilograms of wheat back at one time!"
Mei Sanma sighed with emotion, and Mei Bei couldn't help but feel good after hearing this.
She is indeed a heroine!
It was a tight time last night, so everyone basically carried the wheat ears and straw back together. Two acres of land weighed 1,800 kilograms.
She and Mule Zai could not carry more than a hundred kilograms at a time, and at most, Mule Zai could only carry almost two hundred kilograms.
In other words, Mei Berry took the mule cubs on eight or nine trips to complete the mission, and the heroine Mei You completed it in three trips.
"Then is your wheat still seriously affected by moisture?"
Seeing the damp wheat ears on the ground in his house, Mei Youqian also cared about Mei Sanma and his family.
"It's okay, but one-fifth of the wheat is wet. If the rain continues for a few more days, one-fifth of the wheat..."
Mei Sanma sighed helplessly at the end, and her eyes fell on the silence of the rain that had not stopped outside.
"You go back and deal with the damp wheat, wash it, and keep the ears. Later, when the rain is light, you can ask your daughter to bring the wheat ears over. We use a kang to dehumidify them."
As he spoke, Mei Youqian took Mei Sanma to the back room to take a look, "Your wooden house does not have a kang, which is a bit troublesome. Just use this kang for drying, and there will be nothing but a waste of firewood."
"Second brother! Thank you. If it weren't for you, my wheat would have to be ground and fed to the chickens." Mei Sanma inspected some of the dried wheat on the kang, and while excited and grateful, he looked at it eagerly. The earthen bed in front of you.
"Oh, thank you for what? Fortunately, our two families don't have much wheat, so this kang is enough. Otherwise, even if you wanted to, I wouldn't be able to accept it, right?"
Thinking of how busy he was with just a small field of wheat, Mei Youqian had to turn an extra corner and think of Lao Mei's family.
Don't be afraid of thieves stealing, just be afraid of thieves missing you.
When the rain passes and the sky clears up, I'm afraid that Lao Mei's family will come again to cause trouble...
At this time, Meiberry touched her shriveled belly and turned directly to the kitchen to find something to eat.
"Mom, what are you making for food?"
As soon as she entered the house, Mayberry moved towards her mother.
Immediately afterwards, a strong smell of meat rushed into her nose without even the lid of the pot covering it.
"Pork ribs soup, but it's not ready yet. Let's eat this first."
As she said that, her mother handed the small bowl placed on the pot lid to Meiberry. Meiberry looked down and saw that the smiling face that was happy with the ribs just now stiffened.
A bowl of boiled eggs with brown sugar and ginger.
This comparison is too harsh.
Even though her mother was very good at cooking, Meiberry didn't think food made with large pieces of ginger would be delicious.
This made Meiberry, who couldn't stand the spicy taste of ginger, wrinkled into a bun face.
"One meal is enough, what about the second meal..."
Seeing her complaining like this, Wei Meili's attitude was particularly tough this time, saying: "Drink quickly, your health is not good, if you get cold..."
"Oh, no, I'm fine, can you not drink~"
"Be good, drink it, Berry Baby."
"Ah~ Mom, I don't want to drink..."
"Drink it!!"
Suddenly, Wei Meimei's voice suddenly rose, which startled Mei Berry.
As soon as Mei Mei looked up, she saw that Wei Meimei was very excited at this moment. While her lips were trembling slightly, Mei Mei realized that her mother's eyes had turned red at some point.
Was she already red before she came in?
"Mom, what's wrong? Don't scare me."
Meiberry immediately put down the bowl, threw herself into her mother's arms, hugged her mother, and kept running her hands along her mother's back.
Her mother was a little too sensitive today, as if she had been stimulated by something.
"Did something happen?"
After Wei Meili's sudden excitement subsided, Mei Bei asked.
Wei Meili also answered slowly: "This morning, the child in the house next door to your Aunt Wang's house died. Just because it rained last night, she had a high fever before dawn, and the child died within an hour. …”
"ah!"
I can't say how familiar I am with that child, Wei Meili, but sometimes when I visit Aunt Wang's house, the little daughter-in-law next door will bring the five or six-year-old child over to play, and occasionally Mei Mei has seen her.
So Mayberry was also shocked when she suddenly heard this.
God knows, when Wei Meili heard the news when she first woke up in the morning, she was so frightened that she immediately returned to the room and nervously stretched out her hand to touch the forehead of Mei Li, who was still sleeping soundly.
When she repeatedly confirmed that Mei Mei was still fine, Wei Meili breathed a sigh of relief and at the same time felt suffocated.
"A minor illness can kill someone" appeared so truely around them that Wei Meili felt scared again and again.
After hearing the whole story, Meiberry immediately ate the brown sugar ginger boiled eggs honestly.
After eating, she showed the clean bowl to Wei Meili, and then she stayed with Wei Meili.
It wasn't until Mei Bei felt that Wei Meimei had completely calmed down that she comforted her carefully: "Mom, don't worry about me~ Look, our family is fine now. We will be fine in the future too!"
This system also relies on our family to check in. It is asking for it from us, so it is reluctant to let us go away casually! Feel at ease~"
After listening to the whole process, Meiberry commented in a strange way as she watched her talking about the train system: [...6]
System: What did you say? Who begged you?
Mayberry: What did you say? Bad signal.
System: I have a task about improving my body...
Mayberry: What mission? !
System: Isn’t your signal poor?
Mayberry:......
