Chapter 92: Planting Rice, the Emergence of the Peasants



"Now, we have dinner." Deng Zhao said with a smile.

"Brother Zhao, how familiar are you with the program?" Chen Muyang suddenly asked.

"It's okay, but sometimes I can't remember the words."

"Then recite it a few more times tonight. We should go plant rice."

"No way, brother, I see you guys are either fishing or on a spring outing. I just got here, I'm weeding in the morning and planting rice in the afternoon. I'm not the donkey of the production team."

Sabelin had an exaggerated and mournful expression on his face, which made people want to laugh.

"Teacher Sa, it's better to arrive at the right time than to arrive early."

"When the rice is harvested, I will serve you the first bowl of rice." Chen Muyang said with a laugh.

"La Claw, take the sisters and change into waterproof clothing. Let's go plant rice."

"Okay!" Song Zhuer's baby voice rang out.

"Let's just put on shorts."

......

A group of seven people walked on a country road, and Sabelin showed his rich knowledge.

"In the past, the day of transplanting rice seedlings was called 'opening the rice seedling gate'. Housewives in every household would prepare a sumptuous meal for the strong laborers in the family to enjoy."

"Oh~"

Except for Chen Muyang, everyone else nodded after hearing what they heard, and then Sabelin continued.

"During the rice planting period, in addition to the three meals a day, we also have to have two snacks. Now is snack time."

After Sabelin finished speaking, he pretended to go home.

"Eh~, Teacher Sa seems to be trying to slack off." Yang Xuejian curled her lips.

At this time, an old man was leading a yellow cow to graze. It was obvious that he had just come out of the field and was covered in mud.

"Uncle, is this your cow?" Sabelin asked.

The old man nodded.

"How old is this bull? Is it a bull or a cow?"

"The cow is over ten years old."

"Then you must take good care of it and don't let it do too much work."

The old man smiled and thought, isn't it just for work? Then he led the ox away.

〖Haha, why does Teacher Sa chat with everyone he catches?〗

〖You actually asked about the male and female, I am dying of laughter.〗

Look at the old man's disgusted expression.

〖Haha, I guess Teacher Sa doesn't want to work and is just wasting time here.〗

"Teacher Sa, there's no point in dawdling. You still have to work." Deng Zhao said with a smile.

Several people came to the rice field. The plastic films at both ends had been removed, and the seedlings had grown more than 20 centimeters.

"Brothers and sisters, let's finish this field this afternoon." Chen Muyang said, looking at the large field.

"No problem at all. I believe in my skills," said Sabelin.

"Wow, this mud is so soft!" Deng Zhao exclaimed when he went down to the field.

"That means Brother Zhao plows the fields well."

"La Zha, you and the two sisters should pull up the seedlings, and then place a few bunches at intervals." Chen Muyang said.

Originally, they should be tied together with straw, but in this field, this step was skipped.

"Oh, by the way, you must be careful to distinguish between seedlings and tares. If you pull up tares, throw them far away. Don't leave them in the field."

"What are weeds?" Gao Yuanyuan asked.

"This barnyard grass is very similar to rice seedlings. First, look at the leaves. The leaves of rice seedlings are basically green, while the leaf stems of barnyard grass are white."

"Secondly, look at the stem below to see if it has hair. Barnyard grass is smooth, while rice seedlings have some fine hairs that are not particularly obvious."

"I'll find something for you to compare. When you can't hold it anymore, just put the seedlings in the empty field in front." Chen Muyang took a look, pulled out a barnyard grass and a seedling, and compared them to them.

"Oh, they look so alike."

"I learned it, I learned it." Sabelin said, clapping his hands.

"Well, let's divide the field into four parts, and each person will take one row. This way it will be faster."

Each person held a handful of seedlings in his hand, and four people stood in a row in the field.

"Let me demonstrate to you. The rice seedlings should be planted in alignment and with similar spacing." Chen Muyang bent his back, holding a handful of seedlings in his left hand, pinching a few fingers of his right hand together, with a seedling in the middle, and inserted them into the field, withdrawing as he went.

The movements are extremely standard and smooth.

"Fuck, Brother Yang's movements are even better than my grandfather's rice planting!"

I've never seen rice planting before, so this is what it's like.

〖It looks very relaxing, it is inserted horizontally and vertically.〗

A few people followed suit and soon developed a small business.

"Is there a method of transplanting rice seedlings called throwing rice seedlings?" Sabelin said after planting a handful of rice and standing up straight.

"Yes, but our fields are all terraced, not very suitable for transplanting rice seedlings. The spacing between them is uneven, and it is very troublesome to weed and kill insects later."

Bang!

Suddenly there was a sound of something falling into the water.

A few people turned their heads and saw Cai Ji sitting in the water.

"Haha, Brother Ji, what are you doing?"

"Ki, do you want to be lazy?"

"Xiao Cai, are you the legendary butt-facing flat sand goose?"

"I just lost my balance..."

The merciless ridicule of the three people made Cai Ji want to cry but had no tears. When he stepped back, he failed to pull his legs up and sat down in the water.

"Hahaha~" A burst of silvery laughter came from the side where the seedlings were being pulled.

Soon, they had penetrated three-fifths of the way.

"My back is so sore from being hunched over all the time. Farmers have such a hard life."

"Mu Yang, you are good at writing poems. Why don't you write one to express the hard work of farmers and call on everyone to save food." Sabelin stood up, patted his lower back with the back of his hand, and looked at the old men and women working in the fields in other fields.
