Young Jin was far away, and his back was facing the back, so he didn't notice the movement on the other side of the old locust tree. However, You Yin walked to the field, and then heard the sobbing voice, so he hurriedly looked back: "Why did you run over again, didn't it make you rest?"

You Yin didn't expect to be heard by the third sister, so she quickly put down her sleeves to wipe her tears, and whispered, "I've had enough rest, let's help the third sister to harvest rice together."

But You Jin looked at her with a pale, withered face, how could she believe it? Glancing back at Yue Changlu, who was walking into the ground from the direction of the old locust tree, Young Jin knew what was going on: "Is it the father who drove you to the ground?" Yue Changlu is no longer a human being! Young silver is only nine years old, how much can he harvest even if he goes to the field to harvest rice? Even his daughter is his kind, isn't it? Is it necessary to kill your own daughter like this

Young Jin stood up "Huo", dropped the sickle in his hand and went to the old locust tree. Yue Dafu and the others harvested the grain from the field on the other side of the old locust tree, and the younger sisters were on this side.

Walking to the edge of the old locust tree, he stopped at a distance of more than ten meters from Yuedafu, and then shouted: "Master! It's too sunny today, and the young silver is dizzy and has no straw hat. Can you let her rest for a while?" You Jin shouted loudly on purpose, and everyone who was working in the nearby fields heard it, and there were a few good things who glanced over to watch the excitement.

The three sisters of Youzhu in the distance heard the third sister shouting that the fourth sister was dizzy, so they all ran over with baskets and looked around Youyin: "Fourth sister, are you alright?"

Yue Changlu had just cleaned up his second daughter, and saw that his father's face was looking better. He didn't expect the eldest daughter to have the courage to be disgusted so quickly, making him shameless in front of his father, so he scolded him viciously: "There are people all over the place. You are working people, how can you all be squeamish, how long does it take to take a break?"

In front of the public, Young Jin was not afraid of Yue Changlu's actions, after all, the Yue family has a problem, that is, they love face, so they responded loudly: "My sister didn't eat breakfast today, and the milk said that there is no straw hat at home, the sun is very poisonous. , Young Yin is still young, so there are some who can't carry it!"

"I said, Uncle Dafu, how much work can the little girl's family do? Let her rest for a while. If the sun is damaged, you adults will have to worry about it?" It is the land of the same clan of the Yue family, and the daughter-in-law of that family listened to Young Jin's words and said, "This Autumn Tiger is not a joke, we all have a headache with our straw hats on, and Young Silver is no better than that. Eight or nine-year-old grades, how can they bear it?"

After being said that by the later daughter-in-law, the people in the nearby fields also glanced at the Yue Dafu father and son wearing straw hats, intentionally or unintentionally. Yue Dafu's shriveled mouth opened and closed twice, looking at other people's caring eyes, he couldn't help feeling his throat became hoarse for a while, he stuck out his tongue and licked some chapped lips, and it took a while to answer: "Then let her rest. a moment."

"Hey! Thank you, Lord!" You Jin thanked Yue Dafu loudly with a smile, and then gratefully glanced at his aunt who had just spoken to him, before returning to the field and scooping You Yin out again: "Have a good rest, But don't come out to bask in."

Young Yin was pressed by her and sat under the root of the old locust tree, twisting uncomfortably as if a needle had grown out of the ground to pierce her, with a little embarrassment and panic on her face: "But third sister, if father... . . . "

You Jin pressed the person down hard, made her sit under the tree roots with peace of mind, and whispered: "Master and Dad are both face-loving people, so many people have listened to it just now, even if Dad wants to come over and talk about you, Master will I won't let him come." You Jin knew the temperament of the Yue family very well.

He gave each of the three sisters a few sips of water, and explained: "If you feel that the sun is poisonous, you can find a cool place to rest for a while, but don't get sunburned, you know?"

Youzhu, Youling, and Youluo nodded in unison: "Yeah! Third sister, we know!" Then they held hands to the already harvested

After hearing what the third sister said, You Yin sat down with a little peace of mind, and when You Jin saw that she was no longer making a fuss, she explained that she was sitting here watching the three sisters of Youzhu, who were picking up rice ears not far away, before holding the sickle. Go back and cut the rice.

In the land of the same clan of the Yue family, Yue Changhe, the cousins of Yue Changlu and the same clan, glanced at his daughter-in-law Zhou, who was in the early stages, and said in a low voice, "Why are you trying to provoke them? That one Don't you know what kind of people everyone is?"

Although Yue Dafu likes to be the big head in front of the villagers, they all live in the same village and live close together. In addition, his father, who passed away early, also had some disputes with Yue Dafu. The girls in the Yue family It's not a secret in the village how unwelcome you are at home. This mother-in-law is still rushing to help them talk, isn't she going to offend Yue Dafu

"I just don't like the way they look like girls who are cumbersome and lose money! If there are no girls, where would someone give you children and take care of housework?" He scolded: "Look at those girls, all of them are dressed in rags, how old dolls are not willing to wear straw hats when they go to work in the fields, and then look at the ones from the Yue family. The ones with the handle, all of them wear fine cotton clothes like the city people and act like masters, they are all the seeds of your Yue family, and their hearts are too far away!"

The words were harsh, but the kung fu was not delayed. The sickle in his hand was fast, but he cut another piece of rice as he spoke.

Seeing that her mother-in-law was getting more and more energetic, and her voice was getting louder and louder, Yue Changhe hurriedly grabbed her: "Come on, let me tell you something, you can still sing like an opera, right?" He stood beside his mother-in-law, He whispered: "I know you have a good heart, but the old aunt of the Yue family is not a vegetarian, so don't offend people for a few girls."

Zhou Shi rolled his eyes at him angrily, but still pouted and agreed, "I'll save it."

A small farce started without warning, and then quickly turned the page like this. The sun was getting higher and higher, and the hot sun was shining on people. Young treasure just set off from the village staggeringly carrying two jars.

In the harvest season every year, in order to save time, farmers mostly use some food to carry hunger in the fields, and then continue to work after a short rest. By the time Youbao delivered the food, Youjin's clothes were soaked with sweat, the water in the gourd had been drunk, and his throat, which was so dry and hoarse that it was about to smoke, was slightly sore.

Put the earthen pot under the old locust tree, and shouted to the ground: "Master, Dad, it's time to eat!" Then he turned around and called out to a few sisters: "Sanjie, Zhuzhu, it's time to eat!"

Young silver, who was resting under the roots of the tree, helped Young treasure to quickly take out the food in the crock pot. Harvesting is a very tiring and high-intensity work. Generally, people grit their teeth and add some meat to the family when they are rushing to harvest. The strong labor to supplement the physical strength, the old Chen naturally also needs to make up for Yue Dafu.

Everyone in the Yue family sat in a circle under the old locust tree. The two day laborers took Young Yin and handed over two half-thin bowls of coarse grain porridge, and thanked them with a smile. You Bao untied the burden on his back, and inside was the noodles for today's noon.

It can be said that Mr. Chen did this kind of eccentric little thing heartily: before You Bao went out, Mr. Chen pointed at You Bao with a burning stick in his hand and taught him fiercely: "These two pancakes are Your father and your father, each of you half a piece of cake, if you let me know that you dare to divide it randomly, just wait!"

Young treasure remembered the fire stick that milk was waving like a tiger, and naturally did not dare to violate it a little: first hand two mince pies mixed with a lot of white flour to Yue Dafu and Yue Changlu, and then give two day laborers one for each Zhang black thick cakes, and finally half a cake for each of the five sisters who came out to work.

The two day laborers took the Heiming pancakes, looked at each other, and said nothing, they just ate the pancakes with half-thin coarse grain porridge. Several children were used to this kind of treatment and didn't say anything. They started to eat the pancakes. You Jin took the black flour pancakes, and broke them in half and handed them to You Bao: "You Bao, you can eat some too."

You Bao obediently shook his head and refused: "Third sister, you eat, I only came out after eating at home." The third sister worked hard in the field, but she was fine when she was hungry. With all the strength to work, maybe I will make my father angry again, and I may have to beat the third sister again.

Young Jin shoved the pancake directly into Young Treasure's empty hand, smiled and took a bite of the rough black-faced pancake: "I don't know you yet? Hurry up and eat it!" On weekdays, he protects several younger sisters at home, all of whom are If you are hungry and full, and you are not protecting yourself today, can the old Chen family still have food for the young treasure? That is simply impossible!

You Bao was indeed hungry, looked at the third sister with red eyes, and then nodded vigorously: "Yeah!" You Jin smiled helplessly and shook his head, her sisters are all good, but they all have one problem: Shallow tears. Cry at every turn, but she can understand, after all, a child!

After everyone finished their lunch, You Jin smiled and discussed with Yue Da Fu: "Master, why don't you let You Yin help You Bao to take the jars and chopsticks back, and put some water on the way? It's a hot day. "You can't work without drinking water." Youbao is weak, and he is too tired to carry so many things, but it happens that Youyin is also afraid of hindering Yue Changlu's eyes, so it is better to let her go home Once in a while, you can take a break.

After Yue Dafu finished eating, he sat under the old locust tree and smoked a few puffs of pine tobacco. Hearing what You Jin said, he narrowed his eyes and stared at Young Yin who was standing bewildered behind her, and then spit out a long mouthful of white. Yan: "Go early and return early."

"Hey! Got it!" You Jin smiled brightly, nodded obediently, and then divided the clay pots and other objects brought by Youbao into two parts. went.
