Chapter 396

After making sure that the old Zhou family was not acting for them, but really taking care of pregnant women, Fang's mother completely put her heart down and took her son and daughter-in-law home that afternoon.

Then he sent two baskets of eggs the next day. Qian was very happy, and Lao Zhou was even happier. Then he waved his hand and asked Zhou Silang, who had just finished his work in the field, to take Wu Lang and Liu Lang to the Fang family to help grow the land, making full reciprocity.

The old Zhou family is fast and fine this year. It can be counted not only in Qili Village, but also in Dali Village.

Compared with the lower house, the speed is much slower.

In previous years, their family has been hanging their tail to finish the work in the field, because the father and son have to do business and sell meat, but also busy with the work in the field, so the speed is naturally slow.

In fact, the land mainly depends on Fang's mother and sister-in-law Fang. In the past, there was Fang's family.

During the autumn harvest last year, Zhou Silang went to the Fang family to help, but in fact, everyone was not very busy because of the poor harvest, so he didn't feel very deep.

Now it was the crucial moment of spring planting. Zhou Silang led his three brothers to help. For the other family, it was a big stone on his shoulder.

Moreover, the efficiency of the three people in farming is higher than that of the older Fang family's father and son. Not only the Fang family, but also the villagers of Dali Village envy it. They envy it openly and secretly. "The second daughter of the Fang family married well. Half son, half son, this really got a half son."

Zhou Silang was elated. On Friday, he said to him, "fourth brother, now we come with you to your father-in-law's house to help. When we marry our daughter-in-law, you have to go with us to our father-in-law's house to help."

"You should marry your daughter-in-law first."

"You should go first anyway."

"OK, I should just go," said thurlong. "No, when I didn't get married before, my eldest brother and third brother often took me to help their in-law family. Now I haven't seen them help me."

"The third sister-in-law is reluctant to let the third brother go back to her mother's house to help. Can you rob someone from the third sister-in-law?" On Friday, Lang turned his eyes and said, "as for big brother, if you have the ability, you can tell your father."

Because eldest brother's family is also dad's family. When Qian family needs help every year, one of their brothers has to go there. It's not to help eldest brother's family, but because it's their uncle! Uncle!

Zhou Silang regretted for a while and felt that the help he had been carried around by his brothers was in vain.

On Friday, Lang may have foreseen this, so he made it clear at this time, that is, let Zhou sirang make a commitment and don't forget it like his brothers.

The sun slowly brightened in April. The spring rain last night made the water in the field more abundant. Early in the morning, Lao Zhou drove several sons out and went to release the water in the field with a hoe.

In addition to the fields of winter wheat, the paddy fields outside the village are bright green from a distance. These are the seedlings they have just planted.

At this time, the water in the field can't be too much, otherwise the roots of the seedlings can't catch the soil. As soon as the water flows, it will float up. When the sun shines again, it will die.

So it rained last night. Early this morning, Lao Zhoutou took the lead to see the seedlings in the field. It's time to release water.

After watching the seedlings, he stopped by to look at the wheat in the field. The winter wheat was already dark yellow. Lao Zhou reached out and pinched a handful of ears of wheat, pinched the wheat and looked at the grains inside.

He threw it into his mouth and chewed it. He looked up at the sky and thought that if it didn't rain these two days, he had to harvest the wheat quickly. If it rained, he'd better harvest the two fields overnight

Like old Zhou tou, many people gathered in the field to see the situation. When they met, they could not help standing together and talking.

"The autumn harvest is unknown, but winter wheat has been planted this season."

"No," said old Zhou, smiling so that his eyes narrowed. "These plots can be collected. Do you think it will rain these two days?"

"Look, tonight, if there are stars, you can be more comfortable these two days. If not, you have to go out before dawn. You have to take advantage of the rain to catch a wave, or you'll get wet again. I'm afraid it will fall."

"I'm also afraid of this," said old Zhou. "The first 99 steps have gone. If it's bad in the harvest, my heart can't hurt to death."

"Uncle Jin, your wheat is very good. I saw it just now. The best one nearby is yours."

"Yes, yes," said the other, "I think the winter wheat in the village is growing well this year. I walked through Dali Village two days ago and took a special look. The wheat over there is much worse than ours. I guess it's on this seed."

As soon as these words came out, many people were annoyed, "when we planted wheat in spring, we used the wheat seeds left by ourselves, not uncle Jin's."

Old Zhou tou said, "if you want me, I don't have much. I gave it to you years ago. What we eat now is the wheat you used to exchange."

"This batch of wheat must be kept well this year. If you can, you should plant another winter wheat this year."

"That's a little tired."

"Why are you tired? Look at Uncle Jin's family. How difficult was his family before? Don't you live your life now? " An old man taught, "it's not hard work. When did his family rest their feet?"

Lao Zhou was a little proud, but he was not very happy to be turned over, so he waved away.

As soon as he left, the old man said without scruples, "you are a daughter-in-law who has not married well. If you also marry a diligent daughter-in-law, you will get home early."

"Uncle, just tell us that. You can't say it in the village."

Some people pay different attention, "listen to you, uncle Jin is because of aunt Qian..."

"In the past, he was lazier than you. His daughter-in-law took him a little diligent and gave birth to many sons. In the past, their family was famous poor in the village. Don't say that the daughter of Lao Qian's family was really good. Both of them were diligent.

Old Zhou tou, who was not very diligent, came home with a hoe. After meeting his three sons, he said, "how many pieces of wheat can you cut when you open the sickle tomorrow?"

Old Zhou tou saw Wu Wu Lang bring the cow back from the outside, looked at the cow's stomach, frowned and said, "why don't you have enough to eat for a long time? Don't you have no intention to herd the cow?"

On Friday, Lang cried, "I used a sickle to cut grass for him to eat. Dad, I think it's OK. If the cow eats and supports, it will get sick."

Zhou Dalang nodded repeatedly.

Old Zhou tou snorted, "all right, take the cow back quickly and let it have a good rest. By the way, boss, come up the mountain with me in the afternoon. I told the carpenter in Dali Village to let him call an ox cart for our family and send him three trees."
