Chapter 444: The Second Rice Planting
Chapter 444: The Second Rice Planting
Shen Nuo was still talking. Sometimes, he just felt that A Yan was making a big deal out of nothing.
"Okay, I have no objection, Nono can do whatever he wants."
Qin Yan surrendered. He didn't want Nuonuo to work, but he also didn't want Nuonuo to be unhappy.
Let him do it if he is happy, it is just drying the grain anyway.
Only then was Shen Nuo satisfied.
"That's right."
The next day, after breakfast, Qin Yan put the millet directly in the front yard, poured it all on the ground, and asked Wu Liu and others to help push it away.
He bought a few bamboo rakes for drying millet directly from the space, which were very useful for turning the millet.
Shen Nuo and Song Siyan, who were originally preparing to dry the grain, felt helpless after seeing this scene.
Didn't they say they were to dry the millet? Why did Wu Liu and his group have to do it now?
"Ayan! You lied to me again!"
Shen Nuo's voice was very loud, and one could tell from the sound that he was very angry.
Everyone in the yard looked over, and Qin Yan immediately picked up Shen Nuo, who was wearing a hat, and went to the pavilion.
"Nono, don't be angry. Drying the millet is not a one-time thing. It takes a whole day. You are responsible for turning the millet on the ground all day long."
He explained it to Shen Nuo patiently, and Shen Nuo thought about it and it seemed to be true.
But he felt something was wrong, but before he could figure it out, Qin Yan kissed him on the face.
"Good boy, how could I lie to you? We will all go to work later. You have to take care of the house and the millet. If it rains, you have to harvest the millet immediately."
"is it?"
Shen Nuo listened to his words and it seemed to make sense.
"Of course, my husband is the best, he will definitely be able to do it well, right?"
Qin Yan's voice was low and soothing, and Shen Nuo felt that it made a lot of sense as he listened.
He nodded:
"Okay, I will definitely do it well, just go to work."
"Okay, just be a good boy at home."
Qin Yan said this to him and then kissed him.
The men over there quickly spread all the grain out to dry on the ground, which was covered with tiles.
The place is very large and is covered with a layer of oil paper, which is perfect for drying the millet.
After hanging all the millet up to dry, they went out to work, leaving Shen Nuo and Song Siyan standing there looking at the millet.
It seemed that there was nothing interesting to see, so I set a time and came back once an hour to turn over the grain.
Shen Nuo was still wearing his hat and didn't look tired at all.
Song Siyan followed Shen Nuo to help, and by noon, the dew on the millet had basically dried up.
After five or six days, the rice in the fields was finally harvested.
Qin Yan lent out the thresher, and the village carpenter also made a new thresher, and the two were used together.
This family borrowed it for a few days, and that family borrowed it for a few days, and the rice in the fields was soon harvested.
This is not the end, but the beginning of the next round of farming.
The fields were refilled with water, and Wang Daniu and Zhang Hua drove the cows and donkeys to plow the fields.
In Qin's house, Shen Nuo still sat in the pavilion every day looking at the millet on the field outside.
But today Qin Yan is with him.
"We'll take out a new batch to dry tomorrow. These are probably dried."
Qin Yan looked at the grains on the ground and wanted to praise Shen Nuo again.
"My Nono is well-drying. It dries so quickly."
"Ayan is always talking nonsense. Anyone else would have done the same thing. This is all thanks to the sun."
Although Shen Nuo said this, the corners of his mouth were curved.
Qin Yan disagreed with what he said:
"Even if the sun is shining brightly, don't we still have to work hard to turn the grain? My Nono is still the most hardworking one."
"Oh, whatever you say is what it is. I can't do anything about you."
The seedlings were grown quickly and rice seedlings were soon planted in the fields.
Qin Yan did not go with them, as the rice planting process was quick and there was no need for him to go.
Some families in the village who have borrowed their threshers will come and help with transplanting rice.
Say thank you to them.
Since the thresher was invented, villagers have threshed all the millet before July, and now every household is drying the millet.
In previous years, people had to be reserved to do these tasks, so the number of people planting rice was reduced and the speed was very slow.
But this year, because of the thresher, they have several more people working, and it is not so tiring.
Shen Nuo also went to see it. The fields were very lively, but he did not go into the fields because someone did not allow him to.
I had no choice but to stand on the edge of the field and watch for a while. When I turned around, I saw Chu Che also coming here to help.
But he did not come over to talk to them, but bent over his work.
Looking at him like this, Shen Nuo finally knew who Song Siyan looked like when he was concentrating on his work.
But he didn't care and just did what he wanted.
Anyway, Yu Qingqing is still living in Qin's house, and Shen Nuo has accepted the silver that Chu Che usually sends her, and used that silver to buy a lot of things for Yu Qingqing.
Yu Qingqing knows everything.
In the evening, Chu Che came to Qin's house again.
When the door opened, he thought it was Song Siyan, but the person who came out was the person he had been thinking about day and night.
Chu Che opened his eyes wide and stuttered:
"Qingqing, Qingqing, are you willing to see me? I'm sorry, I was wrong, I was wrong..."
Yu Qingqing hadn't seen him for a long time, but this time he didn't cry, but was very calm.
"Chu Che, let's get divorced."
Yu Qingqing wore a loose robe that covered her belly tightly. She was thin to begin with, and it was hard to tell that she was six months pregnant.
Chu Che, who originally thought that the child was gone, seemed to stop breathing after hearing these words.
He shook his head hurriedly:
"No, I don't agree, Qingqing, I was wrong, I will never do this again, I beg you not to leave me, I beg you."
"Qingqing, I have killed those two people. I killed them all. I was wrong. I shouldn't have distrusted you. Qingqing, you can't leave me... Woo, I was wrong."
Chu Che just felt his heart aching, but he didn't care. He just wanted Yu Qingqing to forgive him.
He can't divorce, he can't live without Yu Qingqing.
"But I can no longer..."
As Yu Qingqing said this, sadness flashed in her eyes, which made Chu Che kneel on the ground even more.
"I don't need a child, I just want you, even if we don't have a child, even if we never have a child in our lifetime, it's still my fault.
Please, Qingqing, we were very good before. You saved my life. When I was a kid, I almost starved to death, and you gave me food..."
The more he said this, the more tears flowed down Chu Che's face. He couldn't bear it all, and couldn't accept Yu Qingqing leaving him.
He crawled over carefully, knelt in front of Yu Qingqing, and grabbed the hem of his clothes.
"Qingqing, let's not divorce, okay? I can do whatever you want me to do, and I will always be with you.
If you want me to take the imperial examination, I will do it. If you want me not to go, I won’t go. I am fine being a teacher here.”
