Mayberry still didn't know that their group was being targeted.
Mayberry just remembered to clock in and looked forward to the rain stopping every day.
As a result, the rain in front of me lasted for seven or eight days.
Except for the heavy rain on the first day, it was almost always rainy and light rainy days afterwards.
But this kind of weather makes people feel even worse.
It is boiling the hearts of all farmers like boiling frogs in warm water.
"My wheat, if I hurry and work slowly, there is still more than an acre..."
Mayberry was sitting at the door looking at the beans and winter melons growing along the fence in the yard.
Her ears were filled with the voice of Aunt Wang who came over to chat with her mother.
More than an acre of wheat sounds quite sad.
Just as Mei Bei was silently commenting on Aunt Wang's wheat, for some reason she suddenly mentioned the pity of other people's family.
"Oh, how pitiful. You said that child was already five years old! Just like that, everything was gone~"
Mei Bei's eyelids jumped when she heard Aunt Wang's words. Why did the topic turn to this?
"You don't even know about Erniu's family. Xiaolin's wife almost went blind from crying. Now, she and her mother-in-law are crying at home every day... Oh!"
Wei Meili also sighed.
As expected, my mother was soft-hearted and easy to empathize with, so the mention of that family matter made her sigh.
But Aunt Wang was really distracted from the conversation, and after finishing this sad topic, she immediately turned back to her home.
"Let's talk about my wheat.
The more than one acre of wheat in my house has not even been harvested, let alone harvested! Look at the weather, when it clears up, sprouts will sprout soon! "
This topic changes...
Meiberry even turned around and glanced at her mother secretly, only to see her mother lamenting and scoring two points.
The first half laments that someone’s child is gone;
In the second half, I could only follow the topic and lament that Aunt Wang's wheat was ruined.
So that after Wei Meili sighed, she stopped chewing.
For the first time, she found that it was difficult to even sigh!
Next, Aunt Wang did not continue to cry about the wheat she had not grabbed, but began to talk about the disposal of the wheat she grabbed.
Mei Qiang and his family were not the only ones to come up with the idea of using a kang for drying. If there was a kang at home, almost everyone thought of using it for drying.
"It's just too useless. When the weather gets better this time, many people will probably go up the mountain to cut firewood and lay grass."
Aunt Wang said and Wei Meili nodded. Looking at the village from the yard these days, every household was full of smoke.
If you want to save more wheat, you have to give up firewood.
"In the early years, I heard that there were big insects in the mountains! Most people in our village didn't dare to go up there. But a few days ago, I heard from people in the town that a mysterious hunter hunted a big insect and sold it to the county. Here’s a rich man!”
"Really?"
Hearing Aunt Wang suddenly mention tigers, Mei Berry remembered the tiger that Mei You had killed earlier.
Meiberry didn't interfere with the subsequent matters, and she didn't expect that the heroine was actually sold to someone in the county.
Aunt Wang chatted with Wei Meili again about her two sons who had gone out to work a few days ago, and then muttered, "Now that the big bug is gone, I feel much more relieved when I go up the mountain in the future.
When the Dragon Boat Festival comes and the fire and wood come back to celebrate the festival, I ask them to go up the mountain to cut some firewood and come back.
His brothers didn't catch up when they were harvesting, so they couldn't come back to make up for it? "
When it comes to her son's failure to catch up with the harvest, Aunt Wang regretted and sighed: "If his brothers had left two days later, I guess the more than one acre of wheat at home could have been saved. It's all our fault. use!"
"Oh, stop talking! Auntie, you are already very powerful.
You, Uncle Wang, and Miss Cuihua, the three of you are trying to harvest the harvest from six acres of land! Better than many others! "
Even with this record, Mei Bei looked up to Aunt Wang when her mother told her.
"Oh, it's not like my parents-in-law..."
The rain has been light these past two days, and people from nearby houses are visiting each other.
After all this, did the information from Lao Mei's family reach Wei Meili's side?
Of the six acres of wheat land, four acres were taken back.
Two acres of land were soaked by rainwater!
Mei Bei heard that they were calculating the manpower of Lao Mei's family. The three of them were competing against Aunt Wang's family. They were all an old couple with a daughter-in-law. The result was a difference of two acres of land.
Hey hey hey!
While gloating about their misfortune, Mayberry had to dislike them.
"Actually, both of your parents-in-law are very hard-working, especially in the early years when your father-in-law went out to work. Your mother-in-law stayed at home alone to take care of her in-laws, who were in poor health, and also took care of their young son. She also took care of everything in the fields, and everything was in good order. !”
"Aunt Wang, are you talking about my mother-in-law?"
When Aunt Wang said this, both Mei Bei and her mother looked suspicious.
"Yes, but now that you are older and become a mother-in-law, don't you enjoy the blessing of being a mother-in-law~"
Although she could understand it, Aunt Wang still looked down upon Zhang's enthusiasm for teasing her daughter-in-law as soon as she became a mother-in-law.
"But Dahu's wife..." Aunt Wang mentioned Jiang again, with a more speechless expression on her face, "I heard that her waist was twisted at the beginning, so it wasn't of much use."
Wei Meili: "..."
Yes, she is a sister-in-law who is used to cheating and cheating. It's really hard for Wei Meili not to think that this is her sister-in-law's intention.
Is this a trick on her parents-in-law?
Not only Wei Meili thinks so, but Zhang and Old Man Mei also think so.
In the past two days, I was very tired from grabbing wheat that night. Just like this, even if I turned over while lying down, my whole body would hurt so much that it made Zhang grin so ferociously.
How many years has it been since she was so tired?
Thinking that the reason she was suffering this time was because of the lack of manpower at home, Mrs. Zhang immediately hated the two houses she had split up.
It's just that it's far out of reach for her right now, and the only one she can "bully" is her eldest daughter-in-law, Mrs. Jiang.
Therefore, Old Man Mei and Mrs. Zhang have been resting at home these two days without doing any work.
Jiang was left busy all alone.
So Jiang's body was tired and her heart was suffering these past few days.
Make a fire to cook and roast wheat;
Washing and sweeping the floor to serve the whole family;
From time to time, her mother-in-law would still find fault.
Whenever Jiang was working and saw no one around, he would curse everyone he knew.
She was really wronged this time!
It was true that my waist was twisted that night, and it was also true that I couldn't do any work for a while.
But who would have thought that with her physical fitness, she would be jumping around before dawn the next day.
Her parents-in-law could really see how flexible she was in twisting her waist.
Looking at the old couple's cannibalistic looks, even though Jiang immediately swore that she was not pretending to be injured, her in-laws didn't say anything, but they didn't seem to believe her when they ordered her to work inside and out. Her words?
Thinking about the past, it was the two sisters-in-law who suffered this crime, and now it was his turn, Jiang's mentality became more and more unbalanced.
Just like her mother-in-law, she began to hate the two separate houses more and more.
This is probably the so-called family does not enter the same house.
Their thoughts are all equally biased.
***
The rainy day finally cleared up after tormenting everyone for seven or eight days.
On the day it cleared up, Meiberry saw many people coming out of their homes and going straight to the fields.
After all, not everyone can harvest all the wheat in their own fields.
Even though he knew that the wheat would be in serious danger after being exposed to the rain for so long, he still couldn't bear to see the Yellow River.
Many people still wanted to take another look, even Aunt Wang, who said she thought about it.
When I saw the wheat turning black, moldy and even sprouting with my own eyes, I suddenly felt sad again. There was a row of crying people sitting on the edge of the field outside the village.
This also forced Meiberry, who originally wanted to take the mule calf for a stroll nearby, to take him in a different direction to the foot of the back mountain.
Mule Zai quite likes the area at the foot of the back mountain.
Whether it's the leaves on the trees or the grass on the ground, the mule cubs eat happily and play wildly.
Plumberry had nothing to do, so she picked honeysuckle in this area.
Before it rained, many honeysuckles had already started to be packed.
As a result, after the continuous rain, many honeysuckles were knocked down, and the remaining ones were still in bloom.
Seeing Mayberry makes me feel distressed.
This also made her want to wait for better weather and go to the mountains to collect honeysuckle.
To make the honeysuckle in the mulberry and chrysanthemum drink, you need the buds of that year.
After drying, it is fragrant and clean.
Plumberries that have already bloomed like this can only be picked home and put into bottles for decoration.
Picking up the blooming honeysuckle, she suddenly raised her head and looked in a certain direction. I wonder if she was too sensitive.
"call--"
When nothing happened, Mayberry let out a breath.
Secretly complaining about being suspicious, why did she feel like someone was looking at her from over there just now?
I'll code the words when I get home at night, try to update as much as possible~
Yesterday afternoon I took the high-speed train and took away all the keys at home when I went out. Fortunately, my mother had a rest yesterday and went to work today. My mother is also looking forward to me coming home and opening the door...
