Farmer's Homecoming

Chapter 36

In the end, the two families reached a consensus on the matter of the field.The Shen family didn't want to take the money out, but the things in that field were indeed planted by others.It is impossible for the Shen family to wait for this season to pass before taking back the land, so they took back the land and its contents, and those few people helped them with the work, and after the harvest, the grain was divided into four or six. Four.

This season has passed when the fields are busy, and they only need to look at the water in the seedling fields and weed the grass in the dry land, but the Shen family is full of complaints about this simple task.

"What are these things doing with it? It doesn't grow tall anyway, and it won't affect the growth of the corn!" There are many weeds in the corn, and we have to weed them several times until the corn is harvested. If we don't get rid of these weeds It is clean, but it will affect the harvest. They will absorb all the fertilizer applied to the corn.

Chunsheng really wanted to tell them that the weeds must be removed, but before he could say anything, others were going to leave the work to him, so he didn't say anything at all, just doing his own thing.

"Chunsheng has done a good job. Let him do it well. Anyway, there are not many lands here. Even if he is alone, he will be fine for a few days." The three members of the uncle's family plus Shen Haoyun and Chunsheng went to work today. At home, I went fishing with the villagers.

"This cornfield is about two acres. Five or six of us can finish it in one day. I'll go back when it gets dark. You can go back now. Come tomorrow." Chunsheng didn't stop his hands when he spoke. , Concentrate on doing your own thing.

It was the same when going up the mountain before. Chunsheng said that he would do whatever he did, and he would go home after finishing his own work. He would never help them.Knowing that Chunsheng was not joking, the uncle's family had no choice but to start again slowly.Now is the time when there is a lot of rain, and the ground in the field is wet, but this is a good time to pull weeds, and it is easy to pull them up without a little effort.

That day Chunsheng told Shen Haoyun that they could go fishing, and today the family members followed the villagers to bring the fish back.The big river in front of the village only gets smaller in winter. Everyone is very big at this time, but it is also good for the river to rise.After the river water rises, the water in the river outside Hegen will also rise. When the river recedes slightly, there will be many river fish rushing in the river.

Every year, the village catches river fish several times, and each family can get a lot of it. Of course, fresh river fish cannot be preserved, so after two meals of fresh river fish, everyone will make the rest into dried salted fish. eat.Dried salted fish can be stored for a long time, and it is very simple to make. It can also relieve hunger when money is tight at home.

A lot of people went to the Shen family, although they didn't help much when they fished, but the village counted by the number of people who went to help, so the fish they brought home were really quite a lot, a full two bucket.

At the beginning, Chunsheng also thought about salting and drying the salted fish, but after looking at the dozen or twenty members of the Shen family, he thought that there was no need to salt the fish, because it was impossible to leave any.

Although Chunsheng himself doesn't cook often, he can cook. For a big family, the dishes don't need to be exquisite and beautiful, as long as there is enough quantity and the taste is enough.At the beginning, Chunsheng had to help kill the fish, but when the fish was ready, those who were supposed to cook the rice stopped moving, saying they didn't know how to do it.

Chunsheng can understand this, it doesn't matter if he cooks it, he cooks it, he has made stewed fish before, and the taste is quite good, so let's cook a meal for them today.

They just bought some basic seasonings that day, and now they just need to go to the ditch to find some fish herbs and come back.

Chunsheng's fish is very simple, as long as they are all washed, and then stir-fried with various seasonings, wait until it is half-cooked, put water in it and simmer, wait for about a quarter of an hour, and then put the chopped fish and herbs in it.

This dish is very simple and quick to make, and you can smell the aroma in a short time. The spring fish is ready, and the porridge over there is also ready. The Shen family ate this meal in peace, because this It was the first time they had meat in months.

After a big meal, the Shen family stayed lazily aside, while Chunsheng took Ayang to the east of the house.Chunsheng took Ayang to digest food, and also to find something.Now is the time when the thorn fruit will bear fruit. Chunsheng likes to eat the thorn fruit the most. The pulp is very sweet, but the seeds inside the pulp are fragrant.

"A Yang, why do you never talk to your father?" Chunsheng heard A Yang mention his father, and when he said it, his tone was kind and joyful, but why didn't he usually get close to Master Shen? They didn't even talk, Chunsheng was quite strange.

"No." Ayang answered Chunsheng with a smile, but Chunsheng felt a little strange, Ayang's expression was too strange.

When Chunsheng first heard that they were going back to Liujia Village, he was quite happy, because he knew quite a few people in the village, and had quite a few friends who had grown up with them.Originally, he thought that he would have a good life when he returned to the village, at least he would not be able to find anyone to talk to like when he was in the Shen family.But since meeting Chun Qiang that day, Chun Sheng realized that even though his former partners were still them, he was not the same as before. He was now a man's wife, a married man.

Except for Shen Haoyun, Chunsheng likes A Yang alone, and he can only talk to A Yang, so when it is inconvenient for him to call Shen Haoyun out, he will always call A Yang, and he can only talk to A Yang up.

After getting along slowly, Chunsheng discovered that Ah Yang had a miserable life. He had never been out of the Shen family's house before, and he had lived in a small courtyard before. He really didn't know anything, even though he was a 25-year-old A grown man, but like a child.

"Ah Yang, this thing is called the Tongzi tree. Now we can use its leaves to make small bags to hold the thorns. The fruit of the Tongzi tree can be sold in autumn. The fruit of this tree can be sold for a lot of money. .

It's a bit late now, if you can see his flowers two months in the morning, Tongzi flowers are so beautiful, you will be able to see them next year. "Chunsheng would talk to A Yang about whatever he encountered along the way, and of course, if he encountered something he was interested in, he would explain it in more detail.

They went to a tung catalpa tree, and each of them picked two leaves. They only needed a twig as long as a little finger to turn it into a leaf bag, and put the thorns they picked into it.

The thorny fruit grows on the thorny tree. If you are not careful, you will be pricked by the thorns next to the thorny fruit. Chunsheng himself is fine. He has been picking thorny fruit since he was a child. Naturally, he has experience and knows how to do it. It wouldn't hurt him, but Ayang couldn't do it. After a while, Chunsheng heard a small groaning sound all over his body, and Ayang was stabbed again.

"Ayang, be careful."

"It's okay, it doesn't hurt." The thorns of this thorny fruit will not only hurt, but also itchy. he.

"Ah Yang, why don't we go back first, we are full today anyway, let's come back tomorrow." Although it was still early today, Chunsheng suddenly thought of his parents, so he wanted to go back and have a look, and happened to have a leaf in his hand There were also quite a few thorns in the bag, so it was just right for them to take them back.

A Yang didn't want to go back yet, but he was used to obedience and would never refute anyone's opinions, so when Chunsheng spoke, he left with Chunsheng without hesitation.

When the two went back, they only reached the small road outside Shen's house before they parted. Shen's house was already at the bottom of the mountain in the village, and Chunsheng's house was in the north of the middle of the village. They went back separately when they got outside Shen's house.

Chunsheng's premonition was quite accurate. When he went back, the courtyard door of his house really opened, and his parents had indeed returned.

"Father, you're back, where's Auntie?" This time I missed Xia Sheng's time to rest and take a bath. Chunsheng knew he wouldn't see Xia Sheng, but why Auntie didn't come back.

"Father, how is that man? Has he woken up? Did he blame you for waking up? Also, why didn't Auntie come back?" Chunsheng asked anxiously, but seeing his father's reaction After that he was in no hurry.

Aunt Liu smiled and tapped his son's head lightly, and then said: "That man is awake, but it's troublesome to wake up, the child sounds like a foreigner, but once he wakes up, he will take care of your mother." Calling mother, the doctor said that it may be that the brain is broken, and I can't remember the past clearly. When I saw your mother, I thought it was his mother."

"What? Then what should we do now?" Chunsheng really couldn't laugh or cry. His parents didn't know what kind of luck it was, whether it was good or bad.

"What else can we do? This child looks like a foreigner at first glance, and now he has no memory, and now he is waking up and yelling at each other. What else can we do? We can only take care of it temporarily. I When I come back this time, I just came back to pack things, we still have to stay in the town for two days, even though there are houses in the town, we still have to bring some things from home."

"Well, I got it, it's fine as long as it's okay. I'm afraid that man is a liar, and you won't be able to get him if you save him. Now... it's okay, just treat him as an extra son. Ah Father, I saw that day that although the man was seriously injured, he was quite big and looked very strong. When he recovers, I can keep you by my side to help with the work when he comes back."

"Okay, listen to you, if he is a good one, our tofu shop can be reopened, and your mother and I will gradually recover. It's not a problem to keep him in the village, or I have to do some work to save some money." The two stayed in the village to farm and did not have much food, and they could only go out every month. The two husbands and wives were not used to this kind of life, so they thought about it early It's about reopening the store.

Chunsheng did not agree to open a tofu shop at home again, because he was afraid that the two of them would be tired. Now that there is a ready-made labor force, he has no objection, but he still hopes that Father and the others can stay in the village. After all, their bodies are only returned to the village. It's good at the beginning, when I was in Fucheng, I didn't have the spirit now.
