Meng Qidi was processing dry goods at the door when the door suddenly slammed. She paused, stood up and walked over.
When I opened the door, I saw Dahuang standing in front of me with a cloth bag hanging around his neck, which contained a lunch box.
Meng Qidi was slightly stunned, and quickly took down the lunch box and patted Dahuang gently.
Dahuang gave a soft cry and turned and ran away.
Watching Da Huang's back as he left, Meng Qidi turned her head to look at the silly dogs lying in the two corners by the door and sighed. Other people's dogs, and her own...
There are still some fried in August, placed on the manhole cover and eaten as snacks.
She shelled the chestnuts and walnuts and planned to dry them before processing them.
In the next few days, she delivered food to the cowshed and began to add chestnuts, walnuts or some lean meat to the porridge.
She still did not try to make friends with the old man on purpose. She always placed her lunch box not far from the cowshed and waited for Dahuang to take it away before leaving.
After a few days of rest, the busy farming season soon arrived.
The autumn rice harvest was no longer divided into batches. The last season of rice had to be harvested quickly, and then the fields had to be plowed and other crops planted.
Meng Qidi was assigned to a more remote piece of land. The team leader took care of her and assigned Ling Jinming and his sister to work over there.
The three of them worked together very quickly. No one cheated or slacked off, and they started harvesting the rice very quickly. In the morning, they had harvested most of the field.
"You guys are doing pretty good at this speed."
The village chief came over and was delighted to see the speed of the three people.
Ling Jinyue stood up and waved his sickle, grinning, "Captain, as long as I swing my sickle fast, there's nothing I can't do!"
Meng Qidi...
This girl is stupid...
The captain was happy, "Great! That's a good point! Now that you have completed your mission today, you can call it a day. You will definitely get full work points."
"No more assigning tasks?" Meng Qidi was slightly stunned.
She thought the double harvest would be particularly time-consuming.
The captain smiled, "You guys still want to continue?"
He likes comrades who are proactive in their work and are much more useful than the bunch of lazy people in the village.
Ling Lao Ba is smart. Although he is lazy, he knows to send his son and daughter to Ling Xiao's house.
Ling Jinyue waved her hands quickly, "We are not cows. Even cows are afraid of getting tired. Captain, my sister-in-law was just talking casually."
They had lunch by the field. Ling Jinming went back to the Ling family and brought the food over to eat together.
After harvesting the little remaining rice in the afternoon, the Ling brothers and sisters went to the village to pull the threshing bucket.
Meng Qidi originally wanted to follow, but was held down by the two men.
Meng Qidi had no choice but to sit under the shade of the tree to enjoy the cool air. She had been reading a book the night before and went to bed late. She drank some Yuquan water and now felt drowsy.
I leaned against the tree trunk and closed my eyes, but before I had been closed for long, I heard some rustling sounds.
The sound was getting closer, but Meng Qidi still didn't open her eyes. Just when an object was approaching quickly, she suddenly opened her eyes.
Da Huang's big face appeared in front of her. Meng Qidi's eyes dimmed and she chuckled, "Da Huang, why are you here?"
"Woof."
Da Huang called out and sat down beside her. It seemed that he was going to stay there to guard her.
Meng Qidi raised her hand and rubbed its head, her eyes intentionally or unintentionally glancing at the reeds in the distance, and chuckled.
Ling Jinming and his sister came back quickly. They held a handful of rice in a cubic bucket and smashed it hard on the edge to separate the grains from the stalks...
After drinking some well water, the three of them started to work. Da Huang still did not leave, but sat under the tree to watch over them.
They are all from the countryside, and it is not their first time to do valley threshing. They are all familiar with the process and basically have mastered it.
With the blessing of Yuquan water, the three of them moved much faster.
By evening, the field was basically done.
After dragging Gu Dou ashore, the two men sent Gu Dou back.
Meng Qidi carried all the grain bags ashore, and waited for the two men to come back, then towed them back on a cart.
Da Huang followed her step by step. Meng Qidi had no choice but to walk around the edge of the field. Da Huang followed her for two steps. After all, it was an animal with a strong desire to play. In the blink of an eye, it went into the reeds...
A few minutes later, it dragged out a wild duck. The duck was very fat and had died after being bitten on the neck...
“Woof woof!”
Dahuang put the duck down and called out to her to take credit.
Meng Qidi gave it a thumbs up. This dog is really amazing. Thinking about the dog she just bought, Meng Qidi felt a little tired. Does this dog really need to be trained?
After being praised, Dahuang excitedly went back into the reeds.
Meng Qidi had no choice but to pick up the duck and go ashore. There was no other way. She would cook it next time and give some to the old man in the cowshed.
Ling Jinming and the other man hadn't returned yet, Dahuang was nowhere to be found among the reeds, and the work in the fields was done, so Meng Qidi had nothing to do for a while.
I simply sat down under the tree and flipped through the book in the space.
This was a new posture she had learned. People didn't have to enter the space, they could see everything in the space by just closing their eyes and concentrating.
She was so engrossed in watching that she didn't pay attention to the outside world until she realized something seemed to be touching her. Meng Qidi suddenly opened her eyes.
What caught my eye was no longer a big yellow dog's head, but a greasy old face.
"Hey, Ling Xiao's wife, I heard that your Ling Xiao has returned to the team. You must be lonely at home, right? Grandpa will play with you for a while?"
Meng Qidi's eyes were sharp, and she looked coldly at the old hand that touched her face, her voice as cold as ice.
"Take it away! Otherwise I don't mind chopping it off."
The man was a little scared of her eyes and withdrew his hand awkwardly, but his eyes fell greedily on her fair face.
"Oh, it's so hot, niece-in-law, you are Ling Xiao's wife, and also the wife of everyone in our Lingjia Village..."
Before the man could finish his words, he was kicked away and lay not far away, screaming in pain.
Meng Qidi stood up and walked over, stepping directly on the hand that had just touched her face with one foot, sneering.
"Sir, was this hand that touched me just now?"
The old man had a bad feeling in his heart. He didn't even bother to touch his chest which was painful from being kicked, and subconsciously wanted to pull his hand back.
Although he is called an old man, he is actually not very old, just in his early fifties. He usually does nothing and is one of the famous lazy people in the village. He is one of the top ten scoundrels.
Before Ling Xiao was around, he didn't dare to move. As soon as Ling Xiao left, he couldn't wait. Such a beautiful daughter-in-law should be shared...
A hint of sternness flashed across Meng Qidi's eyes, and she exerted force on her feet...
The shrill screams echoed in the reeds, startling the Ling Jinming brother and sister who turned around not far away. Their faces changed drastically and they pushed the cart quickly towards this side.
Several big men lying on the edge of a field not far away had pale faces, obviously having seen something bad.
"Why are you here? Where is my sister-in-law?"
Ling Jinming threw the cart down with anger on his face and was about to go find those people and fight them to the death.
"She...she...she killed someone. She actually let a dog bite Brother Sixiong to death..."
Ling Jinyue subconsciously looked towards the edge of the field. Under the tree over there, a big yellow dog was eating something with its head down, and from time to time it excitedly barked at Meng Qidi...
And where it was eating, you could vaguely see some light blue fabric...
