In the blink of an eye, the spring planting is over, and the wheat harvest is ushered in a few days later. "Three summers are not as long as one autumn, and three autumns are not as busy as one summer", because "the autumn harvest is one season, and the wheat is ripe for a while", autumn can still come day by day, and harvest for three months. But the wheat can't be harvested. Seeing that the wheat ears are yellow, the particles will explode in the morning, so I must quickly return to the field to play.
Therefore, the wheat harvest is the busiest and most tiring time of the year. For about ten days before and after, all the skins are peeled off.
During the wheat harvest, in order to reward the members, the team also distributed meat once.
After the wheat is harvested and it rains, the land is cultivated for corn, millet, etc., and then the members can be lighthearted.
At this time, the fruit and vegetables in the vegetable garden are harvested, and the dining table of every household can be enriched, especially Lin Lan's family, who brings their children to make delicious dishes every day.
When the wheat was harvested, three catties of meat were distributed, and Han Qingsong's meat ticket was also able to cut eight taels or one catty a month. It was hot in the summer, and the meat and fish could not survive. No matter how much I bought, Lin Lan basically made it all in one meal, making it enjoyable for the children.
What kind of sweet and sour pork, braised pork, braised lion head, hand-made meatballs, sweet and sour pork loin... Lin Lan made them all over and over again, eating the children's mouths full of oil.
In the twinkling of an eye, the midsummer season is hot, with heavy rain this year and mosquitoes rampant.
The place where Lin Lan lives is well-greened, and there are more mosquitoes, and the mosquitoes are also vicious, and they specifically bite Xiaowang. You said there was a whole room of children, they only picked Xiaowang's delicate skin and tender meat, but it made Lin Lan feel bad.
She first cut the special cotton mesh yarn from the commune to make mosquito nets, and sewed three mosquito nets with white cloth. She and Han Qingsong have one, several boys have one, and Mai Sui has one.
As a result, Sanwang sleeps dishonestly, either boxing or practicing shadowless legs. If he sleeps in the middle, everyone on the left and right will suffer, so Dawang can only squeeze him into the corner to sleep. But this way, he leaned against the edge of the mosquito net. Strange to say, his feet are stretched out, and mosquitoes don't bite him, so they have to get in through his legs to bite Xiaowang.
Everyone jokes that Sanwang is tanned, and the mosquitoes can't find a place to suck blood. Since the beginning of the Dragon Boat Festival, Sanwang has become darker and darker every day at a speed visible to the naked eye, until he has turned into a small Baogong with his crescent moon on his head!
As for Han Qingsong and Dawang, Lin Lan joked that they were too cold, and mosquitoes dared not bite, so they got the nicknames Mosquito does not bite, and Sanwang was called Black Pudding.
In the end, she moved Xiaowang to Mai Sui's mosquito net. Anyway, Xiaowang sleeps honestly, and it's okay to sleep on a kang with her sister.
In fact, she wanted Xiaowang to share a kang with herself, but Han Qingsong disagreed.
It's hot in the summer, so he wears less clothes at night, and he likes to be close to her and do something when he has nothing to do, so the child will get in the way of his eyes, and he has to go out.
In order to prevent the children from being bitten by mosquitoes all day, Lin Lan rode a bicycle and took the ticket issued by Han Qingsong, and took time to go to the county to buy several boxes of Wanjin oil.
Dragon Tiger brand oil is cheap and easy to use. It is always used in summer at home. However, this kind of small thing can't be found if one is not careful. Therefore, their home must be kept by Mai Sui and Erwang, in their pockets or in a fixed place, and whoever wants to use them can ask them for it.
If you let Sanwang touch it, you won't know where you are going in the blink of an eye.
Although mosquitoes are rampant, children like summer most because they can go to the river to play in the water. Although he was beaten for going into the water during the Sanwang Qingming Festival, Lin Lan did not restrain him from going into the water, but only told him to pay attention to warm-up, not to act alone with others, and also told Dawang to take his younger brothers to learn to swim when he had time.
After school, Sanwang mows grass, and he likes to swim and catch fish. He has good water skills, and he can get better at home every few minutes.
This is also because Han Yongfang's management team is relatively loose. Their team does not keep fish, and the fish in the river basically come over during the flood season. The members of the community can touch whoever likes it. If it is a fish raised by a team like Linjiatun, the members cannot touch it. If anyone fishes without permission, it is stealing, and if they are caught, they will be subject to a lawsuit.
Lin Lan asked Dawang Sanwang to teach Erwang and Xiaowang how to swim. At this time, many people in the village were landlubbers. She felt that boys still had to learn to swim. Taking a bath in summer would save a lot of trouble.
If it weren't for the inconvenience of many people in the village, she would like to take the wheat ears into the water and teach her daughter to swim!
Xiaowang learns fast, he is young, and he trusts the eldest brother and the third brother very much. The third brother said, "Don't breathe and sink into the water, I will support you", Xiaowang obediently obeys, he believes the eldest brother and the third brother Will definitely support him. So Xiaowang learned to hold his breath and breathe in just an hour in the water, but he swam a little slower, so he wouldn't sink in the water.
Dawang took him to play in the shallow water.
Erwang learns more slowly, because he used to know no water, but now he is a little scared and dare not put his head in the water. Once you bite the bullet and pinch your nose and sink, it seems like that, one has two. So many times, two or three days and two prosperous will also learn.
So the four brothers swam around in the river like four fish, sometimes lined up in a line, sometimes in a single line. Standing in a row, Sanwang raised his hand violently, clasping a fish's mouth and gills, "Hahaha... I brought it to my door!"
This kid is very good at taking fish. He can chase a group of ducks and white geese to swim, and grab fish from other people's mouths, so angry that the white geese will nag when they see him.
So at noon, the members often watched Sanwang being chased by the big white geese in the river, while Dawang picked up Xiaowang and Erwang obediently followed, and the three of them hid on the side to watch the fun.
Xiaowang: "Little third brother is really powerful, he can swim faster than the big white goose!"
Erwang: "If you are too slow to be nagged on your butt, you will be lame for several days."
Dawang: Stupid. Obviously holding his breath for so long, he just slipped away from the bottom of the water, and he had to be chased all over the river.
In view of the fact that boys like to go into the water, Han Qingsong directly includes swimming as a morning exercise exercise, running, push-ups and other items plus a swimming.
To this end, Han Qingsong also specially asked someone to buy several pairs of swimming trunks and two sets of women's swimsuits from the provincial capital, one for each person, and Xiaowang has it.
After having swimsuits, Sanwang and Xiaowang no longer have to go into the water with their bare bottoms.
During the morning exercise, Sanwang wanted Han Qingsong to swim with them to see who was the best, but Han Qingsong never went into the water. Look.
Sanwang and Erwang whispered: "Second brother, do you think our father can't swim?"
Erwang: "Definitely, my father has participated in the winter swimming."
"Then why doesn't he go into the water this summer?"
Erwang couldn't figure it out either, but he didn't dare to ask.
They instigated Xiaowang to ask.
So on the way home for dinner after the morning exercise, Xiaowang was pedaling on his straw shoes and chasing after Han Qingsong: "Dad."
Han Qingsong thought that he was walking too fast and he couldn't keep up, so he reached out and picked him up and sat in his arms.
When he came like this, he was very happy for Xiaowang, so he kissed Han Qingsong.
Han Qingsong: "..."
"Father, I have a question."
Han Qingsong: "Yes."
"Why don't you go into the water? Can't you swim?"
Han Qingsong: "Yes, it's inconvenient."
Xiaowang: "Why is it inconvenient?"
Han Qingsong: "You don't understand."
Xiaowang: "If you say it, I will understand."
Han Qingsong: "Play with my brother."
Xiaowang didn't dare to pester him, but Sanwang and Erwang chased after him, "Did you ask?"
Xiaowang looked blank, "Father said it's inconvenient."
Sanwang laughed: "It's not a woman, why is it inconvenient?"
Dawang heard him play, "Go home."
After returning home, Sanwang hid and quietly asked Lin Lan.
Lin Lan: "I won't let him go into the water."
Sanwang doesn't understand, why
Lin Lan poked his finger, "If only you could study so carefully. There's a lot to take care of."
Why, it's not that easy! I just don't want to show other women her husband's perfect body! Didn't you see those poking brains when he went out for morning exercise in the morning? Once, I wore a vest and shorts, showing smooth and beautiful muscle lines. Oh my god, all the old ladies in the village ran to the intersection to take a look.
Look what look!
So later Han Qingsong performed morning exercises, and Lin Lan asked him to wear a single shirt and single pants, not a vest and shorts to show his flesh!
If this is only wearing swimming trunks and going into the water, then the river will not be crowded with old ladies who go to wash clothes early in the morning
Sanwang didn't know why Han Qingsong didn't go into the water, so he was so curious that he kept thinking about it as a big problem.
After the busy farming season, Han Qingsong took a few more days and brought a few people to cover the Westinghouse's penthouse. This is their bathroom.
The bathroom was designed by Lin Lan and Han Qingsong themselves. The floor is covered with blue bricks, leaving a water channel so that the bath water can flow directly to the outside of the wall. The bathroom space is divided into two parts, the outside is a stove, which can heat hot water, the inside is a tub, and a shower is also made. In fact, it is a tin bucket with a spraying device similar to a flower watering pot welded under it.
It was ordered by Han Qingsong from the iron sheet team under the county's supply and marketing cooperative. It was not cheap, but he thought it was worth it if Lin Lan liked it.
In this way, the boys in the family go to the river to take a bath, and she takes the wheat ears to wash at home, and no longer has to drive the boys out for bathing in the daytime like before.
It is hot in summer. At this time, only the fan can hula hula. The daily way to cool down is to take a shower. Put it in the hot river water in the yard, put it in a tin bucket, and then stand under it and pour it thoroughly, not to mention how comfortable it is.
If she goes out during the day, the first thing Lin Lan does when she comes home is to take a shower. If she doesn't go out during the day, she also goes to shower when she sweats a lot.
Han Qingsong felt that this bathroom was especially worth it.
Even after having the bathroom, Han Qingsong didn't like to go out to wash at night, and said that she sweated a lot in summer, so she would rub her back more. From morning to night tomorrow, I will take a shower when I have time. Where can I rub things? Every time he took a shower and washed her all wet, he even said seriously that she was wet, why don't you wash it together.
After dinner that day, Sanwang carried a lantern and a match, led Xiaowang, and hurriedly went to Zhigui, "Big brother, second brother and sister, hurry up. If you go late, let them touch the pillars. ."
Finding a tortoise is also the daily routine of many members after dinner in summer. It is addicting, and it is uncomfortable to not catch it for a day. After all, it is a good entertainment item to be able to digest food and catch the tortoise.
The five children were dispatched together and went to the woods around the village to find them. Depending on the length of the night, they found forty or fifty or a hundred, which was quite impressive.
Sanwang was particularly fascinated, and Erwang and Dawang, who were not originally fascinated, were also taken by him to look for them every day.
If you have the conditions, take a flashlight or a horse lantern to take a picture. If you are daring, you can touch the shadow of the moon. If you see a black bump on the tree, touch it. Most of it is a tree tumor. Okay, there will be snakes or bugs.
When the children left, Han Qingsong helped Lin Lan pick up the dishes and wash them.
Lin Lan: "I'm going to take a shower first." She walked over with the clean clothes she had prepared.
After rushing past, Lin Lan found out, "Hey, he had prepared underwear, shorts, and a vest, why didn't he have a vest?"
She whispered: "Third brother, third brother~~"
Han Qingsong appeared outside the window, "Huh?"
"Where's my vest?"
Han Qingsong helped her take it in, "By the way, rub my back."
Lin Lan: "Washing eight hundred times a day, what's there to rub?" How could he not get tired of rubbing it
You rub it for me, I rub it for you, this bath will take a little longer.
In the end, Han Qingsong took her back to the bedroom and put her on the kang, fanned the mosquitoes, put down the mosquito net, and went to the kang first without waiting for the children.
He lay beside her, fanned her with a pad fan, and admired his daughter-in-law in the light. She was wearing a white-and-pink vest made by herself and shorts of the same color underneath, revealing a slender waist and long elastic legs. In summer, the sun is fierce, so the skin tone of the neck and arms is slightly darker than that of other places, and the contrast is sharp, especially the skin on the chest is white and glowing.
His eyes became deeper and deeper, and the palm fan in his hand also slowed down. Lin Lan felt that he was looking at him, and slowly a faint pink color began to appear from his cheeks to his body.
She turned over, "Cover me with a sheet."
"Isn't it hot?"
Lin Lan: You look at me, I'm hotter, hotter.
Han Qingsong unhurriedly fanned her a palm fan. The weather was hot and he didn't want to cover her with a sheet. The two of them chatted like this, waiting for the children to come back.
At about nine o'clock, when the children came back, Sanwang excitedly reported how many cicadas he had caught, who looked for the most, who he met, which woods he went to find the most, and he would go there tomorrow, and so on.
Xiaowang has fallen asleep on Dawang's back.
Lin Lan told them to wash up and go to bed quickly.
When the children went back to the east room to blow the lights to sleep, Han Qingsong also used the palm fan to turn off the lights. He lay down and took her into his arms, "I forgot to tell you."
Lin Lan: "What?"
"I'm not going to work tomorrow." He put his big hand into her vest...
Lin Lan took a breath, most afraid that Director Han would not go to work tomorrow!
"Your heart is beating fast."
"...Don't talk." Talking seriously and doing bad things would make her a little ashamed.
Then he stopped talking and did whatever he wanted by the moonlight... "Don't... this way..."
The next day, Lin Lan did not get up successfully. She didn't know what time it was when she heard someone making a noise in the main room.
"I said the third, you are so used to your wife? What time is it? The sun is so high, everyone who goes to work has to go home to eat, the children have to leave school, and she is still sleeping!" It turned out to be Han! old lady.
Lin Lan quickly got up and quietly dressed.
She heard Han Qingsong say: "Mother, this family is all supported by Lin Lan. She is too tired every day, so she should sleep until what time."
Han Jinyu was about to push the door of Xijian, but was blocked by Han Qingsong.
Han Qingsong whispered: "Don't wake your sister-in-law to sleep."
Lin Lan immediately forgot about it, lest it would be embarrassing to go out at this time, it would be better if she fell asleep all the time. Ha ha.
The old lady Han was still muttering, "Look at the whole brigade and the commune, there are a few wives just like yours, lazy, greedy, and unfilial..."
"Mother!" Han Qingsong interrupted her, "Lin Lan is a well-mannered family, don't say these words again. Is there something wrong with your mother?"
Han Jinyu said sourly: "Mother, third brother, she... my sister-in-law is really lucky, even more fortunate than those who marry in the city. I have never seen anyone who is so comfortable. I am the master of the house, I don't have to serve my mother-in-law, and I want to eat. Just eat, sleep in if you want. If it were me, I would be happy to marry a man like my third brother. "
Han Qingsong said solemnly: "If I weren't your brother, I wouldn't want you."
