After being noisy for so long, everyone quickly went to sleep.

In this day and age, no one has a separate room or bed for relatives to sleep on, so everyone sleeps in a big bunk bed. It's summer, and it's not cold anyway, so I just cover myself with something and fall asleep.

Liu Chen took out the mosquito coil he brought and lit it with a disposable lighter.

"Uncle, what is that? What is it for?"

Wu Yiyi was very curious and wanted to touch it with his hands.

Liu Chen stepped forward and hugged Wu Yiyi, "Don't touch this, be careful it will burn your hands."

Not only Wu Yiyi was curious, but everyone present was also curious about what this thing was. The aroma when burned was very good.

"This is mosquito coil, it repels mosquitoes." Liu Chen explained to everyone.

Looking at this good thing, this thing is so good. When it is lit, the mosquitoes really don’t bite me anymore?

These days, the sky is full of lice and fleas, and three mosquitoes can eat a plate of food.

Liu Chen hated these bugs the most. He was bitten every day and suffered terribly, and there was no good spot on his body.

This thing is great. It’s really great that there is still something like this in this city. Not only does it smell good after lighting it, but there are really no mosquitoes at all.

Liu Chen spread the insecticide on the bed and clothes again, and it was much better this time. Now that the mosquito coils and insecticide are here, will these nasty guys bite him?

Everyone fell asleep quickly. Liu Chen thought about it and forgot. Next time he would bring a mosquito net.

Before dawn, the third sister Liu Niandi called the two children up. Now is the wheat harvest period, so they must go back before starting work. I didn't ask for leave today, so I must go back.

Wu Yiyi was in a daze and couldn't open his eyes. Liu Niandi coaxed her and picked up the child.

Wu Xuenong was wearing tattered clothes in a daze, rubbing his eyes, and followed his parents back home.

Everyone also got up early.

Liu Jiefang took the basket and went to pick up manure from the team.

Liu Chen stood up, stretched, and refreshed himself.

After working for the past few days, I have obviously become more accustomed to it.

Not long after, Liu Jiefang came back carrying a basket picking up manure. After washing, the bell for starting work rang.

"God has given us food to eat. The weather for harvesting wheat is so good."

"Yeah, we've finished harvesting, and it's almost time to hand over the public grain."

"Hey, have you seen Liu Damao's face? It seems that he was beaten by Liu Jiefang's third son-in-law."

"Why didn't you see it? It looks like a pig's head. It's for meat."

While walking, everyone was talking about what happened last night in groups of three or two. I guess this new thing is enough for everyone to talk about until the New Year.

Liu Chen is still wearing his new straw hat. It's good to have a straw hat. At least it's not as exposed.

When we arrived at the drying field, Liu Chen was drying wheat today. All the wheat was harvested, and after a few days of sunshine, it was ready to be handed over to the public rations.

This year is a good harvest year, much better than last year. Last year there was a severe drought and no grain was harvested.

There was a bumper harvest of grain this year, with at least three to four hundred kilograms per acre. Everyone was full of energy and beaming with joy.

I took a wooden shovel and learned from others to winnow the wheat. The public grain to be handed over must be full-grained, clean and free of impurities.

"What are you kidding about? Come here quickly."

Everyone was very busy. Only Liu Chen was still grinding away. It's not that he didn't want to do it, he really didn't know how.

Liu Chenyang's has been drying for three days and is about to be loaded into the warehouse. This is called returning the wheat. That is to say, the wheat must be winnowed once before being put into the warehouse. The wheat bran in the wheat pile must be completely removed.

Clean up the wheat ash. Because there are insect eggs and bacteria in the wheat ash, if it is not cleaned, the wheat will easily develop wheat thorns and wheat germs after being put into the warehouse, and the wheat will quickly become hot and deteriorate.

"Ah, it's too hot now."

"What do you know? This wheat must be put into the warehouse while it's hot. This kind of wheat can be stored well."

This is because wheat is stewed and accumulated at high temperatures, which can achieve the effect of killing insect eggs and bacteria. Pack it in bags, stack and cover it, and put wooden boards or other things under the bags. This is to achieve the heat preservation effect and also

Be prepared for the changeable weather in June.

"Oh, you didn't show off like that." Liu Fugui pushed Liu Chen away.

At first glance, this guy just doesn't have enough skills. This wheat seems simple, but in fact he is very knowledgeable.

"You have to follow the wind. When the wind comes, you have to shovel a shovel of wheat. When the wind comes, you throw it upwards hard and fly high. The dust and wood chips are blown away by the wind, leaving clean

The grains of wheat fell."

Liu Chen listened to Liu Fugui's explanation and tried again.

"Pooh"

This time he hoisted it straight, and the falling wheat grains hit his head. His eyes were so dusty that he could not open them.

"Okay, you go and make a sack with your child."

Liu Fugui couldn't stand it anymore and drove Liu Chen aside.

"This is a good life, I can do this."

Liu Chen said shamelessly.

Only Liu Chen can do this. Making sacks is only done by children, pregnant women and the elderly. Anyway, Liu Chen doesn't care, men and women are equal, and they can do anything.

"Haha, Brother Liu Chen, you are joining our group."

"Screw you, I see you don't want to eat sweets."

When Gou Sheng heard what Liu Chen said, he immediately shut his mouth. Why didn't he think about it? He even thought about it in his dreams. He only ate half of the White Rabbit toffee he ate yesterday, and gave the other half to his sister at home. The remaining one

One of them was snatched away by my mother, saying she was saving it for the New Year.

"Just be honest, there will be something delicious later."

Liu Chen stared at Gou Sheng and the others and said.

When the children heard that there was delicious food, they all wanted to treat Liu Chen as their real father and second uncle.

This toffee is so sweet that I almost dream of eating it.

With the sack open, other members used wooden shovels to shovel wheat into the sack, and a puff of ash hit their noses.

"Pooh"

Liu Chen didn't pay attention. He sucked hard and his mouth was full of ash.

"Hurry up, kid, and open up the sack."

Liu Chen casually wiped his face with his hands. The ash on his face was mixed with sweat, and he suddenly looked like a tabby cat.

"Can I not do this? I'm going to pile wheat and chop it."

Liu Chen really doesn't want to do this anymore, and this sack isn't easy to work with either. He might as well just pile up the wheat and chop it, that one should be good.

"What on earth can you do? You don't even have a woman or a child left."

Liu Chen picked up the fork, picked out the wheat straw, and placed it on top of the similar wheat chop piled by others.

"Be gentle. This should be piled up layer by layer slowly. Don't pile it up all the time."

"Oh, boy, this is a technical job, you can't do it."

If the pile is good and compact, it will be easy to feed the animals when the time comes.

Looking at the fluffy wheat chops he piled up, Liu Chen went to make sacks. It was still as simple as this. Although it sucked in ashes, there was no technical content.

A few hours later, everyone had harvested the wheat and packed it into bags.

Looking at the heavy sacks of grain, everyone's faces showed joy. This year has been great, the weather has been kind, and the grain harvest has been bumper. This is the fruit of everyone's hard work.

The children jumped up and down on the sacks, and the adults scolded them, for fear that any sack was not strong enough and the food would leak out.

The woman was resting against a pile of wheat straw, and the man was sitting on the ground, smoking a cigarette.

"Come on, smoke."

Liu Chen took out a pack of Dujiang cigarettes with mouthpieces and scattered them in circles.

The people who dispersed happily looked at the cigarettes in their hands, saying, "This guy can't do anything, he's the best smoker."

This cigarette is not something ordinary people can smoke, it is smoked by leaders. It is good to have good relatives in the city. Several people hate themselves for not having such awesome relatives.

"hehe"

"Ha ha"
