Listening to Songzhuang's tone, Baiyunxi looked at her lightly,
"You also said that the mountains and forests belong to everyone. Whoever picks them belongs to whom. You can go pick them if you want. Who is stopping you? The acid reflux water that is so weird doesn't work in front of me."
"One acre of land can last several days. No wonder there are always people saying you are lazy. I think you are not only lazy, but also very talkative. Be careful of committing karma. When the time comes, you will be fried in oil and your mouth will be full of bubbles."
"Who do you think is lazy? We work all day long, so why are we lazy?"
Mrs. Songzhuang suddenly became unhappy, pinching her waist and staring, looking fierce.
"What happened when I said you were lazy? I wronged you. How many days have you been cutting down the sorghum stalks in a field?"
While they were talking, a little old lady walked over with a cane.
Seeing the old lady appear, Mrs. Songzhuang was immediately discouraged.
"Mom, how can I be lazy? We have been working hard, sweating profusely under the poisonous sun, but my sister-in-law and the others don't know how to come over to help other than sunbathing."
"Shut up, they didn't do the land on the east end? Or they didn't take over the land on the other side. Do the math for me, who did more?"
When I see something to eat, I want to put it all in my stomach. When it comes to work, I will grumble and procrastinate if I don't keep an eye on it.
"Hurry up. Today we will cut down all the sorghum stalks in this field and transport them home. Tomorrow we have to fertilize and nourish the land. If we delay doing it any longer, we won't have to eat."
Songzhuang held his mouth and angrily kicked the ground at his feet, splattering dirt on his face.
Mrs. Song glared at her daughter-in-law, turned to look at Baiyunxi, and said hello with a smile.
"Yunxi, we're entering the mountains,"
"Yes, Mr. Tian at home will take advantage of this period to try his luck in the mountains."
"That's right. It's a good season for the autumn harvest. The fruits in the mountains and forests are all ripe. If you're lucky, you won't be hungry."
Mrs. Song nodded. Her eldest daughter-in-law had a good relationship with her and often brought home a few fish. She was a cannibal and had a short mouth.
"Auntie is right. I make more trips just to fill my stomach. I have no choice but to do so."
Baiyunxi exchanged a few polite greetings, turned around and left. In the distance, you could still hear the old lady scolding the couple.
If nothing else, the old lady's lung capacity is really good.
When I got home, I poured the persimmons into a large dustpan basket, and several people continued to peel them. Because there were so many, I even asked the second child to set up a drying rack.
Making persimmons and covering them with frosting takes one month and forty days.
The quantity of persimmon cream is very small, and the price is relatively high. Traditional Chinese medicine is calculated by weight.
Just when they were having sex in full swing, Mrs. Song Wang came with half a basket of radishes.
"Sister Yunxi, we have harvested the radishes in the field. I will send you a few to dry them while the weather is nice... Oh my God, where did you pick so many persimmons?"
Seeing Mrs. Song's surprised look, Bai Yunxi smiled and asked Mrs. Li to move the bench for her.
"Just back from the mountains, Mrs. Li found a persimmon tree and we picked it back. We are going to dry it into persimmon cakes and eat them as snacks. You will take a basket back later, dry it yourself, and keep it for drinking in the winter."
"They say it's better to come early than to arrive in time, so I'm sorry."
Mrs. Song Wang sat next to Bai Yunxi, picked up the knife and peeled the skin. She moved very quickly. At first glance, she looked like someone who was used to doing the job.
"Not to mention, you are really lucky. When I came back from the river, I happened to meet your mother-in-law inspecting the sorghum field. I guess she was afraid that your two younger siblings would be lazy."
