The next day, on the way to work, Yang Shu took her to the harvesting team.
Following Yang Shu, Liu Mingjia harvested rice.
Yang Qing also followed.
With their joining, they become the youngest members of this harvesting group.
When the rest of the group saw this, they all made some jokes.
Because there are no children in the harvesting team, they are all experienced workers who work quickly and skillfully.
Yang Shu responded and taught them how to harvest rice with Liu Mingjia.
Hu Lin learned it immediately and went to the fields with his trouser legs rolled up.
Stepping on the mud, bending over and swinging the sickle, he soon got the hang of it.
Yang Qing cut a few crops himself and became familiar with it.
The difficult part is harvesting rice.
The rice you harvest has to be threshed on the rice bucket ladder.
Yang Qing was tall enough, but after watching Yang Shu's demonstration and starting to operate it himself, the results were disappointing.
It is necessary to use Yangshuo to hit the grain again on the side to completely knock down the grain.
Hu Lin was not tall enough, so threshing the grain put a heavy burden on his shoulders.
At the beginning, I couldn't completely de-thresh the grains, but after trying a few more times, I could barely do it.
After a few days of adapting, their speed also improved.
Because of their martial arts training, the two of them were quite strong.
After a few days, the veterans in the same group also looked at them with admiration.
They are praised by everyone they meet for being good at farm work.
The busy farming season is over, and all the children in the village who are still in school can finally take a break.
Those who are over sixteen years old are still working with adults.
Busy drying millet, soybeans, sorghum, wheat, corn... and so on.
After that, the products are shelled and stored.
Anyway, those who can no longer go to school will be treated as adults.
The next day after working in the fields, Hu Lin and Li Aihua went up the mountain to pick up mountain products.
This year Li Aihua was busy alone and the harvest was not as good as in previous years.
The two of them could only pick more now while the busy farming season was still going on.
After the villagers finished their busy farming season and picked up mountain products, Hu Lin went up the mountain to restore the trap.
In November, the two earned a month's wages, but quit in December.
The snow fell particularly early this year. On December 1st, it was snowing.
It was snowing on the day of the year-end settlement, and Li Aihua and Hu Xiaoyi went together to get the grain back.
Looking at the snowflakes floating in the sky, Hu Lin reached out to catch some.
Watching them melt away in my hands, I felt a little disheartened.
It seems that the person she is waiting for will never come.
No one would be sent down to such a remote area.
It's also close to the border.
After I bought the map, I studied it carefully and found that the rolling Daqing Mountains actually extended into the territory of another country.
Li Aihua came back with food on her back and saw Hu Lin picking up snow. She asked, "What are you doing, girl?"
She knew that her daughter was a little afraid of the cold, and she found her behavior a little strange.
"Nothing. Just bored." Hu Lin went back to the house.
Since I can't wait, just forget it.
We’ll talk about cross-class issues later.
After Yang Jing's family finished the year-end settlement in the village, they rested for a few days. When it was time to go to the county town for a meeting, they went with Yang Shu.
Yang Shu is the team leader of the production team. At the end of every year, he has to go to the county town to report on the year's work progress.
Yang Jing went to attend the regular meeting.
Especially after the educated youth went to the countryside, regular meetings became particularly important.
Every month, we have to report the specific situation of going to the countryside to work as educated youth, and see how well the new educated youth adapt.
After the father and son finished reporting their work, Yang Jing asked Yang Shu to ride his bicycle to the city gate first and stop Old Yang.
At this time, Old Yang's ox cart was about to leave.
Yang Jing stayed and took the whole family to the city gate.
After the meeting, when he was leaving, the county magistrate came over personally and whispered to him.
Yang Jing glanced at the family of seven and said, "Come with me."
As he said this, he sighed in his heart.
No one spoke along the way until we arrived at the city gate.
This whole family accepted the gazes of everyone on the ox cart, and their expressions did not change at all.
They sat on the ox cart indifferently and let these strangers take them to another strange place.
This is how they got here these days.
Yang Shu rode a bicycle with Yang Jing in front of the ox cart.
Halfway through the journey, snow started falling again.
When they arrived at the village, they were all covered in snow.
The snow was getting heavier and heavier, and was gradually turning into a heavy snowfall.
Yang Jing first went home, put on a straw raincoat and a bamboo hat, then took another bamboo hat and went to the village again.
By this time the ox cart was almost there.
Yang Jing handed the hat to his father to protect him from the snow.
Then he walked towards the large family that had gotten off the ox cart one after another, "Come with me."
