Chapter 30 Farming is Coming

Acer's father stopped painting and went to eat bamboo cigarettes. While his wife and son were talking, he didn't say a word.

Da Ya asked Er Ya and San Ya to put the wooden bags they picked up in their room. This time, the toys her sister asked for were not placed outside to prevent grandma from using them to light the fire.

Ye Shiqi noticed that her father used to be a bit conscientious, but now he is more and more protective of their sisters. He is still a good father, but he is just a bit foolish and filial. This can be changed slowly.

After Acer finished painting, he quickly went to take a shower. The paint on his body smelled very strong and would bring the smell back into the room and affect the children.

The next day, before dawn, Mr. Lai got up and patted the door. Hongji got up and washed his face, picked up two loads of water and poured it into the water jar. Then he picked up the basket and went to cut rice with his father.

Mrs. Lai drove Da Ya and her five younger sisters to the rice fields at home. The older one helped cut the rice, while the younger ones helped pick it up.

"Grandma, why don't you take Fifth Sister with you at such a young age? Why don't you stay at home? Grandma, just keep an eye on her." Da Ya felt sorry for such a young sister and went with her. In the fields of the mountains, there would be bugs there, and such a small sister would be there.

If you can't walk, what can you do?

"You damn girl, you're still instructing me. I don't want to bring you money-making goods. I want to cook at home."

Lai's eyes flashed when she said this. Yesterday, her eldest daughter came to ask for permission but she didn't agree. At night, she thought about it again. If she didn't help her eldest daughter take care of the child, her eldest daughter would not recognize her as her mother and would not let her go.

How is this allowed for her to see her grandson?

Mrs. Lai decided to let Daya take the youngest to the fields, so that she would have time to help her eldest daughter with the children.

Da Ya glanced at the second aunt. The room where the third aunt lived had not yet opened the door. She did not dare to call them for fear of being beaten. So she could only carry the fifth sister on her back and let Er Ya carry a basket.

He held his sister's hand and went with them to the fields outside the mountains.

Not long after dawn, they were walking through the fog. They usually went to Tiandi after having breakfast before going. Today, they had a heavy task of harvesting rice, so they went out to do it and then went back to have breakfast.

Ye Shiqi went out to see the fields for the first time on the back of her eldest sister. She had experienced so much in the book during the past three months.

After enduring the days of not having enough to eat and not being well clothed, Ye Shiqi finally saw the sun outside. She felt that today was a good opportunity.

Now that she is able to do it, she can enter the space to farm, or she can sit down and plant with her hands. As she grows up, the space such as the well Lingquan becomes a little bigger, and the apprentice has a room as big as her family, so she can

Plant some rice or other products.

Ye Shiqi has no planting experience and couldn't find seeds before. She just took advantage of today's opportunity to plant useful crops in the space. She can't go hungry anymore.

In the warm sunshine of this morning, there are also people walking on the dew to cut rice, in this harvest month of October.

Daya and the others came to the field, where their father and grandfather had already cut a lot of rice and put it in the field.

Daya used a sack to spread on the road beside the fields, gently placed Wu Wa on the ground, and said softly:

"Fifth sister, you have to be good."

Ye Shiqi nodded, and Daya didn't know whether she understood or not, so she asked the fourth child to watch from the side, fearing that the fifth sister would be ignorant and crawl into the ditch aside.

Da Ya took Er Ya and San Ya to the fields.

Hongji, who was bending down to cut rice, heard the sound and straightened his back. When he saw that it was his eldest daughter who came with the children, he scolded him with a straight face:

"Da Ya, why did you bring the fourth and fifth babies out? Aren't your grandma and two aunts not out yet?"

"Dad, grandma asked me to bring my sisters out. Auntie and the others haven't gotten up yet." Da Ya held a sickle in her hand and lowered her head in grievance.

Erya and Sanya picked up the rice that fell on the ground and put it in the basket.

"Hongji, don't talk about the babies. Let's cut some more rice and pick it back later. After breakfast, leave the babies at home." Hongji's father didn't want to say more. He might have guessed what Lai and his daughters were thinking, so he sighed inwardly.

tone.

Acer could only tell his eldest daughter to be careful and bend down to continue cutting the rice.

The weather in October is a bit drier, and farmers know that the rice harvest is about to begin, so they don't put much water into the rice fields. The ground in the rice fields is not rotten. When adults and children step on the fields, only the dew wets their cotton shoes.

Ye Shiqi watched her sisters and her grandfather and father working. She also saw the rice husks from the rice being eaten by rats on one side of the field.

She had nothing to do, wearing the straw hat her sister gave her. She couldn't just sit here and count ants all the time.

Looking at the rice fields and then at the mountain side, she saw pine trees here.

She had good eyesight and saw a bird's nest on a big tree. She glanced at the fourth child beside her, who stared blankly at the rice grownup and her sisters.

Ye Shiqi's itchy hands reached out to pick the leaves of a small tree nearby, and suddenly a line of words appeared in her mind.

Myrtle, also known as myrtle, the whole plant is used for medicinal purposes. It has the effects of promoting blood circulation and dredging collaterals, astringing and stopping diarrhea, tonifying deficiency and stopping bleeding.

Then the pink goldenrod flowers and fruits all over the mountains and fields appeared in my mind.

Ye Shiqi was stunned by the words and pictures that suddenly appeared in her mind. She had never known such a plant before, so why would she recognize the plant species?

Her heart skipped a beat. Could this be another version of Golden Finger?

In order to verify whether it was a golden finger, Ye Shiqi asked Siwa to pick wild flowers on the roadside for her.

She saw a variety that looked like wild chrysanthemums, another that looked like wild orchids, and even honeysuckle.

They all grow on the edge of mountains and ditches, and they grow particularly lushly beside ditches. Without fertilizer, they grow like weeds.

"Safety regulations, safety regulations." Ye Shiqi said words that Siwa couldn't understand. She moved her hands and feet and pointed at the blooming wild chrysanthemums, wild orchids, and honeysuckle vines. The honeysuckle vines have reached the season of flowering.

There are a few flowers on it, and some dried flowers.

"Sister, what beautiful flowers. Hehe, fourth sister also likes flowers. I will help you pick flowers and let's play together."

Wu Wa obeyed and went to pick flowers, but Da Ya, who was harvesting rice, stood up from time to time to look at the two sisters.

I am worried that the girls are too young and ignorant to play in the water.

"Siya, why are you going to the ditch? Stop quickly, what if you fall into the ditch?" Daya said as she hurried back from running in the field, stepping on the soil of the paddy field with one foot high and the other low.

inside.

When Hongji heard Da Ya's voice, he turned around and saw that the youngest baby was still sitting obediently. The fourth baby, who turned out to be very sensible, ran to the ditch.
