? In mid-March, every household in the village was busy, plowing the ground, weeding, fertilizing and watering, and serving their own fields, so as to lay the foundation for transplanting rice half a month later.
Chu Rong originally planned to plant rice seedlings in advance, let alone a hundred acres of land, which is not like a few acres of land that can be completed in two or three days. The natal brothers of the Lin family and the Laishun family's daughters-in-law had ordered six years ago to serve the 100-acre paddy field, and they were all called over.
A dozen or so young and strong men got up and went to the field when the cock crowed, and did not start work until dark. So far, they have only finished 50 acres of land, and this is still with the help of three big yellow cattle.
On this day, Chu Rong was accompanied by Dong Lin's family to the field. Not long after arriving, Huang Donglin ran up from the field. After glancing at his wife, he said to Chu Rong, "Master, let me see if we are still here." We need to hire a few more people, and it seems to be mid-term, and we have to wait ten or so days to plant the seedlings after fertilizing, and I¡¯m afraid that time will be tight.¡±
Huang Donglin has been worrying for the past two days, and he can't stand the small number of people and the large land. He used to think it was easy to take care of the family's three acres of land. The eight adults in the family could finish it in one day, but now he has it. Experience, look at these ten or so brothers, they are all tired and thin, and they can't see the edge of the unfinished land.
The Donglin family was called to cook for these men, and they naturally knew that it was not easy for men when they ran around every day. , I¡¯ve lost a lot of weight, and I can¡¯t make up for it by eating meat every day, so invite a few more people.¡±
"Shut up! What are you talking nonsense, girls?" Huang Donglin was startled when he heard his wife's words, and before he had time to see Chu Rong's expression, he scolded him coldly, "How can farming not be tiring?" , it¡¯s better to eat here when you¡¯re farming for your own family.¡±
As soon as he said this, the Donglin family also knew that he had said something wrong in a hurry, and hurriedly bowed and apologized. What my man said is right, she has also been in charge of the food for several days, that¡¯s really nothing to say, ten catties of pork every day, let alone vegetables and eggs, it¡¯s all enough, even the rice is white flour rice.
Putting it in my own home is not as delicious. I am grateful to be able to steam a pot of steamed buns with two sides.
The corner of Chu Rong's mouth was smiling, and she didn't take it to heart at all. She came here this time because she thought about the lack of manpower. In her previous life, her family had no land. Naturally, she didn't know much about farming. The only knowledge she had was once she went on a trip. At that time, I passed by a small village and lived for a few days. I heard some of them just in time for farming.
"Brother Donglin, this time I came here just to ask how many people are needed to fix the rest of the land within three days."
"Ah, this" Huang Donglin didn't realize it all at once, and after recovering, he hurriedly calculated, frowned and said, "Just ten more."
Huang Donglin also estimated the number of people. The honest man didn't think too carefully. He just thought that if twenty people worked as much as before, they would definitely be able to finish it.
Chu Rong is not stupid, so she could see what he was thinking, and after thinking for a while, she said, "Then let's find fifteen. You guys are too tired these days, so everyone should score one point for their work and do less."
After finishing speaking, I still didn't forget to look at Donglin's family jokingly, "I didn't see that my sister-in-law has an opinion. If this really exhausts you, you don't have to work hard with me."
Donglin's daughter-in-law blushed at Chu Rong's words, and the couple also realized that it was a joke, so they agreed with a smirk.
But when it comes to recruiting workers, Chu Rong said without thinking, "This time, the recruitment of short-term workers is only for three days. I don't think it's too troublesome to go to the village to ask again. Sister-in-law Donglin will take some time to ask about it on the mountain. If the daughters-in-law of the long-term workers¡¯ families have any extra labor at home, just come here, and it¡¯s easy to live in the field for these three days.¡±
In fact, it is more convenient to find people in the village if it is too troublesome, but in Chu Rong's eyes, her parents and workers are her own people, and of course she is more affectionate to those daughter-in-laws. Outsiders are strong.
When the Donglin family heard this, their eyes lit up. There is not much in these years because there is more labor force. For example, her natal family is not close or far away, but it can be reached after two hours of walking. That's three hundred cash in three days, which is enough for ten or so people in her natal family to spend ten days. thing.
"Don't worry, don't worry, I'll go as soon as I finish my lunch, and I promise I'll be there tomorrow." Donglin's daughter-in-law was so happy that she couldn't see her teeth. But the quota has to be reported by oneself. By then, the daughter-in-laws of those families will not know her personal relationship?
What's more, I can still stay at my mother's house.She didn't look ashamed, and let the sister-in-law and younger siblings take a look at her skills. (Remember the site URL: www.hlnovel.com
