Everyone waited for a long time, but no one came.

It took a while to see a bicycle coming down the mountain.

After stopping, two people got off the car and walked towards the hillside pushing the car.

People thought they were waiting for someone to come.

Two people came, one was a middle-aged man in his thirties, and the other was a young man in his twenties.

Both of them were wearing black and gray Chinese tunic suits, not that kind of leather jackets. It's just that there is no pocket.

That is, ordinary cadres.

When he got close, Captain Zhao looked at the person who was coming, and then stepped forward to shake hands with the two of them.

He smiled and said, "Officer Wang, you've worked hard! This time it's you again."

The leading middle-aged man said with a smile: "Yes, there is no way. Isn't it me every year. This is our officer Li."

After speaking, he pointed to the young man next to him and smiled.

Zhao Baoshan smiled when he heard the words, "Hey, Hello, Director Li, thank you for your hard work."

The other party smiled when he heard the words: "It's okay, it should be."

Captain Zhao smiled when he saw this, and said to the middle-aged man, "Officer Wang, have you eaten yet? Why don't you eat something before going."

"No, I came over after breakfast. We'll go to the field in a while, and we'll eat when we come back at noon."

Captain Zhao nodded upon hearing this.

This is also good, save a lunch.

"That's fine, you guys go there. Old Feng, you take them there."

Seeing this, Accountant Feng nodded and prepared to leave.

Officer Wang waved his hand, "Okay, let's go by ourselves. It's not the first time I've come here. I was planning to go directly. I heard that there are leaders from the county coming. I guessed that you were still here." Here. Isn't this coming up!"

Captain Zhao nodded when he heard the words, "Yes, Secretary Zhang said he will come today, but he doesn't know when he will come. We are still waiting here."

"I really don't know when I will come. After all, it's not your place. There are other places to go."

Zhao Baoshan nodded when he heard the words, and took a puff of pipe irritably.

Upon seeing this, Director Wang smiled and said, "Then we'll go there first."

After speaking, he took the young man next to him to push the cart and went down again.

While watching the two leave, several figures appeared under the mountain.

The first donkey cart has returned with a load of corn cobs.

The leader is Xiaocao.

The little guy volunteered and insisted on pulling the scalper himself.

The scalper has been raised by Xiaocao for a month, and his second grandfather is watching over him. Finally, Captain Zhao agreed.

This ox is stronger than a donkey.

For the same thing, it is much easier for the scalper to pull it up, but it runs slower.

Captain Zhao watched several cars coming up, and then yelled at the waiting crowd.

"If you have nothing to do, come over and unload the corn cobs."

Seeing this, everyone in Zhou Xiaochuan took a rake and pulled the corn cobs from the car.

These are all husks, and a special person will come to peel off the husks on the corn in a while.

Captain Zhao's wife saw that the corn had arrived, so she turned around and walked towards the village.

After a group of people get it done.

Captain Zhao has not come yet.

Upon seeing this, Accountant Feng said, "Forget it, you can wait here. I'll take them to work."

Zhao Baoshan thought for a while, then nodded.

"That's fine, you take them there! Waste your time here, I'm here."

Accountant Feng nodded when he heard the words, then turned his head and said to the crowd: "Okay, don't wait, just take your things and go to work."

Things are actually baskets and hoes.

There is one basket for each person, but there are not so many hoes.

After taking the good things, everyone followed the convoy and walked down the mountain.

There is also a large wooden barrel with a lid on the car.

Inside is water for drinking.

At this time, the old men and old men in the village came over one after another with pony horses.

As long as you can still move, come here.

Zhou Xiaochuan also saw Grandma Xiaocao inside, peeling corn husks.

"Give it to me. You stay in the car."

After going down the hillside, Zhou Xiaochuan took the cattle rope from Xiaocao's hand.

Xiaocao laughed when he heard the words, handed him the rope, and climbed into the car.

There are quite a few baskets and some picks on the car.

When the crowd was halfway there, they saw someone walking towards this side with a pole.

There is so much corn, it is impossible to pull all of them with donkeys.

Including the scalpers, there are only five heads in total, and the rest can only be picked up with poles.

But donkey carts can pull, and a cart can pull hundreds or even thousands of catties.

If you use a shoulder pole, you can only pick up more than one hundred catties. This still belongs to people with great strength.

After all, although it is said that the busy farming is full, there is still not much oil and water.

Most of them are men.

There are also a small number of women.

But the shoulder pole team is not something everyone can do. If you can't hold on, someone else will join.

Because the work points of the shoulder pole team are 12 work points.

People these days are more able to bear hardships and stand hard work, so there are still many people who are willing to do it.

The two teams met, greeted each other and left.

Zhang Aijun looked at the back of the shoulder pole team leaving, and muttered to Li Guosheng, "Would you let us pick corn later?"

Li Guosheng was also a little worried when he heard the words, "Yes, there are quite a few."

"It doesn't matter, let's talk about it first."

Everyone came to the field. The scene here is very lively.

Millet didn't move, the first harvest was corn.

A large area has been cleared.

People with baskets on their backs shuttled through the cornfields.

When they are full, they are taken out and poured together.

There are also some people who are responsible for cutting off the stalks that break off the corn from the roots, and sleep neatly on the ground.

There were more than men and women in the crowd.

There are also a group of big girls and little daughter-in-laws.

As the saying goes, "The wheat is yellow and yellow, and the beautiful girl gets out of bed."

The older girl and the younger daughter-in-law, who usually rarely go out, are about to be dispatched at this time.

As for the crowd carrying baskets, there were also many children.

While working, I looked for those relatively tender corn stalks, broke them off and tasted them.

Keep the sweet ones, throw away the unsweet ones, and continue looking for the next one.

A lot of corn stalks were hustled.

It's just that I didn't do much work.

But no one cares about it, because children don't have work points after all.

This is also the only chance to come out to play.

Because today is eating big pot rice and yesterday's yellow steamed buns, so there is no need to cook.

Starting tomorrow, each family will eat their own food, and these children will go back to do housework with the older children in the family.

Wash clothes, cook, boil water, and deliver meals at noon.

Because you can't delay adults earning work points.

On the terraced fields, there are singing voices from time to time, which makes this busy season full of life.

Xiaocao came to the place, said hello to Zhou Xiaochuan, and ran into the corn field with a small back basket.

Accountant Feng looked at Zhou Xiaochuan and the others.

Then I made arrangements with Zhao Sanxi, "You guys should stay together. Sanxi, take them with you."

Zhao Sanxi nodded when he heard the words, and led them to a cornfield that hadn't been harvested yet.

When he came to the place, he explained to several people. "Pick the corn first, and cut the seedlings later."

When everyone heard this, they went to pick corn with baskets on their backs.

Zhou Xiaochuan looked at some corn stalks with two mallets, one big and one small.

If this is in the future, people who are thrifty will pick the big ones first. Keep the small ones for a while.

Can be a little more.

But this time the situation is special.

After picking the corn cobs, the stalks must be chopped off.

One is afraid that it will be too late to dry, and the other is afraid that the food account will not be matched.

Everyone was busy until almost noon.

Then I saw that when the donkey cart came back, it was pulling a lot of things.

"Everyone rest and eat."

Only a crisp voice sounded at the foot of the mountain.

When everyone heard the words, they put away their work and walked towards the foot of the mountain.

When they came to the place, they saw several women, Aiju, cooking food for others with spoons.

What I ate was the steamed yellow buns yesterday.

There are several large wooden buckets next to it, which contain the mutton soup that was slaughtered and roasted two days ago.

You can't say soup~lightnovelpub.net~It should be said to be stewed vegetables.

There are also some cabbage, potatoes and radishes in it.

The person who got the meal was already impatiently ready to eat.

This is meaty.

Not much, but at least some oily water.

Seeing this, Aiju yelled while beating, "Hey, don't rush to eat, Captain Zhao said that someone will come over later."

Hearing his words, everyone stopped what they were doing.

There is resentment on his face.

But Captain Zhao has said everything, and people can only obey.
