Chapter 59 The second son of the Ye family has a bad love affair
The rice fields are full of busy people, and everyone has a happy face.
What a great harvest, an unprecedented great harvest!
Everyone was laughing so hard that they couldn't stop waving their sickles.
"Fellow villagers, we have food now and we won't go hungry anymore!"
"Of course! It's enough! Let's eat to our heart's content!"
There was laughter and joy in the fields.
The harvested rice ears are neatly stacked in the fields.
The women brought straw mats from home and spread them on the fields. They grabbed a handful of rice in one hand and beat it hard with a stick with the other. The rice grains broke away from the ears and fell onto the straw mats with a rustling sound.
Farmers in the Daewoo Dynasty had always used this manual threshing method, not because the people of that dynasty were uncreative.
The main reason is that the grain output is not high. We only harvest a few melons and dates every year, so there is really no need to improve efficiency.
But this year is different. The smiles on the women's faces gradually became forced as they looked at the mountains of rice ears.
so much?
You can’t finish knocking even if you break your hands!
Of course, there are also families who don’t have to worry, such as Sanheizi’s family.
Sanheizi's family raised the only cow in the village.
His family spread the rice on the village threshing ground and used oxen to pull stone rollers to thresh the rice, so people didn't have to put in any effort at all.
He doesn't lend out his cows easily, not because he is stingy, but because cows are luxury goods and he is reluctant to lend them out.
Speaking of which, he also has to thank his five sisters. If it weren't for them, he would never have the chance to touch a cow's hair in his life.
Sanheizi harnessed the stone roller, led the cow to pull the stone roller around, and the rice ears made a crackling sound.
"Mom, you come and lead the cow, I'll be right back!"
Sanheizi handed the cow rope to my mother, turned around and ran to the field.
Sanhei Niang sighed as she looked at her son's back. She knew without asking that he had gone to look for Shui He.
Sanhei Niang looks down on Shuihe.
The girl is pretty, but one cannot live by appearance alone. The girl is ambitious and she is worried that her son cannot control her.
Apart from that, the girl is just like her mother, with a pair of big, foxy eyes that fly around everywhere, and it's obvious that she is not someone who can live a stable life.
But Sanheizi plunged into her maze and was determined to marry her.
She had only this one child, so she could only agree to his request and come to propose marriage after the mourning period for his grandmother was over.
Seeing that the mourning period was about to end, Sanhei Niang felt like her heart was burning with anxiety.
…
Widow Zhang and her family of three were busy in the fields. Her son Goudan was the only male in the family and had just turned ten years old.
"Mom, I can't do it anymore!" Goudan held the sickle with a sad face.
"Goudan! Let me help you!"
San Heizi ran over with a smile.
Widow Zhang kicked Shui He and said, "You little bitch, why are you still so involved with him?"
Shui He looked aggrieved. "What does this have to do with me?! I ignored him a long time ago, but he insisted on sticking to me. What can I do?"
Widow Zhang heard this and walked towards San Heizi with a fake smile, "Heizi, go and do your own thing. My family doesn't need your help."
San Heizi smiled shyly, "Auntie, it's okay! I don't have much left at home, I'll help you first."
Widow Zhang waved her hand, "That's not necessary, go back now!"
San Heizi stopped laughing and said uneasily, "Then...then when Auntie's millet is harvested, I'll lend you my cow to grind the grain, okay?"
Widow Zhang frowned, as she noticed everyone nearby was looking over her shoulder. "San Heizi, why do you think my family should use your cow?"
"Ah?" Sanheizi was stunned.
"Are our two families relatives?"
“No… no…”
"Are your mother and I old friends?"
“No… no…”
"Then why should my family use your cows?"
Widow Zhang took a step forward and the three black guys took a step back.
"What's the relationship between our two families?"
"I..." Sanheizi stammered, unable to speak.
Widow Zhang raised her voice, "Put away your shameful thoughts and stay away from my Shui He! My Shui He is an innocent and good girl! If you dare to come close to her again, don't blame me for being rude!"
Everyone looked sideways.
San Heizi felt so embarrassed that he looked at Shui He and said in a trembling voice, "Shui He, please say something. Didn't you tell your mother that we..."
"Shut up!" Shui He raised her head and glared at him fiercely, "I told you long ago to stop dreaming! Get out of here!"
San Heizi stood there in a daze, tears welling up in his eyes.
Widow Zhang chased him away with a sickle, and Sanheizi returned to the threshing ground in a daze, one step deep and one step shallow.
When his mother saw him like this, she panicked and threw away the rope, "Son, what's wrong with you?"
San Heizi burst into tears, "Shui He, Shui He lied to me, she doesn't want me anymore!"
Sanheiniang clapped her thighs with joy, "Hahaha..."
Could it be that my ancestors appeared to me? I'll burn incense and worship them when I get home!
"mother???"
San Heizi's face was full of accusations.
"My heart is about to break into pieces, how can you, how can you still smile?"
"Ahem, I'm so angry I'm laughing!" Sanhei Niang pretended to be angry. "This girl has eyes on her forehead. It's no wonder she looks down on me! Don't worry, I will definitely find a better girl for you!"
Sanheizi felt extremely distressed. Shuihe suddenly changed her mind. She must have hooked up with another man. He wanted to see which other man could be better than him.
In the Ye family's field, the sickle in Ye Yanping's hand swung out an afterimage.
"I can't do it anymore, I need to take a break!"
Ye Yan'an was sweating profusely. He threw away his sickle and sat on the edge of the field, catching his breath.
A pleasant sweet scent of osmanthus came with the wind. Ye Yan'an sniffed and wondered why the osmanthus flowers bloomed so early this year?
While I was wondering, a young girl came towards me gracefully from a distance.
With an oval face and slender waist, who else could it be but Shui He?
Ye Yan'an withdrew his gaze as if nothing had happened and pretended to look up at the sky, but the redness in his ears revealed the secret deep in his heart.
Which young man is not sentimental? Shuihe is beautiful and has appeared in his dreams more than once, but he only dares to think about her in his dreams.
Shui Hetiao has high standards and definitely wants to marry into a wealthy family in the town.
He's not destined for that.
"Brother Yan An~"
A gentle call like water came to his ears, and Ye Yan'an was struck by lightning. His heart was beating like a drum. He turned his head and saw Shui He holding a bamboo tube, standing beside him.
"Shui, shui, shui, shuihe!"
Ye Yan'an has lived for fifteen years, and this is the first time he stutters, and it's in front of the girl he likes.
Shui He covered her mouth and giggled, her eyes with upturned corners seemed to shoot out hooks, making Ye Yan'an unable to take his eyes away.
"Brother Yan An, are you thirsty? I brought you some water."
Ye Yan'an took the bamboo tube in a daze. Happiness came too suddenly and he was completely confused.
Shui He smiled shyly, "Hey, why are you still standing there like an idiot? This is... I just drank..."
Ye Yanan's face instantly turned red all the way to his neck. Shui He had just drunk it? If I had drunk it, wouldn't that mean I was...
Ye Yan'an was educated and knew about propriety, morality, and the strict rules between men and women. He knew that this was wrong, but how could he have the heart to reject the goddess of his dreams?
"Why don't you drink it!" Shui He's body twisted like noodles.
Ye Yan'an was just wondering what to do when he suddenly heard a sweet, childish voice calling out, "Cao Cao!"
