In just a few days, Ye Shuning collected more than a thousand kilograms of soybeans.
After harvesting soybeans, the next crops are corn and sorghum, and there is basically nothing left.
However, when harvesting crops such as sweet potatoes, peanuts, and potatoes, children are still needed to do the last harvesting.
In fact, the team has a rule that whatever the children find is their personal property, and whoever finds it owns it, which has also mobilized the children's enthusiasm. However, the children don't have a centimeter.
Ye Shuning was an adult, so she didn't ask for anything she found, but handed it all in to the team. She had already collected quite a few items privately, so she didn't take advantage of this.
When harvesting sweet potatoes, potatoes and peanuts, Ye Shuning also harvested some, but she did not argue with the children. Instead, she checked the remaining ones that no one else could find after the children had finished harvesting.
Although most of the sweet potatoes she harvested were small, Ye Shuning didn't mind them. They were delicious steamed or dried. Ye Shuning harvested several hundred kilograms of sweet potatoes. If she hadn't harvested them, they would have rotted in the fields during the winter freeze.
The same was true for peanuts. She collected over a hundred kilograms of peanuts, and several hundred kilograms of small potatoes. This autumn harvest, Ye Shuning had a great harvest.
During the autumn harvest, everyone went to the fields to work. Ye Xingguo wanted to help out, but Ye Shuning, Li Shaozhong, and Pan Dongshan disagreed. So he could only help with cooking at home.
Although he can't cook complicated dishes, he can still make simple ones. At least he can make porridge and staple food, and he can prepare the ingredients for cooking and just cook when his daughter comes home.
During the autumn harvest, everyone races against time, as they can only feel completely at ease when all the grain is stored in the warehouse. This is related to everyone's food security.
During the autumn harvest, Li Shaozhong received a letter from his parents. They were very happy that Ye Shuning could become the daughter-in-law of their Li family, and urged Li Shaozhong to get married as soon as possible.
Although they couldn't attend the engagement ceremony, they sent a lot of things and money notes, making sure not to treat Ye Shuning badly.
It was only after receiving a letter from his parents that Li Shaoyang learned that his younger brother was dating Ye Shuning. He was happy for his brother.
Ye Shuning was his savior, and because of their previous relationship, he treated Ye Shuning as his own sister. He also wanted to take care of the little girl more. Now that Ye Shuning was marrying his third brother, they would become a family from now on.
Although she will be my younger brother's wife in the future, she is still my younger sister.
In order to express his happiness and support for his brother, Li Shaoyang collected a bunch of tickets from his comrades and took out some of his own money to send to Ye Shuning.
That’s right, he sent it directly to Ye Shuning, which also meant to support the little girl.
Ye Shuning was very helpless when she received the money and tickets from Li Shaoyang again. She had written more than once to ask Li Shaoyang not to send her anything anymore, but Li Shaoyang still did what he wanted. This time, even more.
Although Li Shaoyang said in the letter that the money was for buying things for her engagement, Li Shaozhong's parents had already sent Li Shaozhong money, tickets and things, so there was really no need for Li Shaoyang to send more.
Brother Li doesn't even save some for when he gets married.
Ye Shuning gave the money and bills to Li Shaozhong, but Li Shaozhong refused to accept them. "Since my second brother gave them to you, just keep them. He treats you like his own sister, and since he heard that I'm getting engaged to you, it's nothing for him to send some money and bills to congratulate you."
Although Ye Shuning didn't want to accept it, she had no choice. She couldn't just send it back to Li Shaoyang. That would be a bit ungrateful.
I'll return it to Li Shaoyang when I have the chance in the future.
Ye Xingguo knew Li Shaoyang and had worked with him for several years. He felt that Li Shaoyang's attitude towards his daughter was a little strange. Could it be because his daughter had saved him?
Li Shaoyang was not with him at this time, and he had no way of asking Li Shaoyang what he thought. He just thought that Li Shaoyang was repaying him for saving his life.
After dinner, everyone chatted and digested their food in the main hall. Li Shaozhong took out his parents' letter and said, "Uncle Ye, my parents hope that Xiao Ning and I will get engaged as soon as possible, but they can't attend our engagement ceremony. They sent some things, money, and tickets, asking me to buy more things for Xiao Ning and not treat her badly."
Ye Xingguo nodded and said, "Your parents have just settled down, so they definitely can't come. Besides, we should keep a low profile in this situation. We only know the Pan family here. On the day of your engagement, we can have a meal with both Pan families and invite a few elders from the village to witness it."
Seeing that his future father-in-law was so easy to talk to, Li Shaozhong said, "Uncle Ye, when do you think we should get engaged?"
Ye Xingguo wasn't the type to be sentimental. He thought for a moment and said, "I guess I'll have to go back to the army soon. You should get married before I do. I think we should wait until after the autumn harvest, when your Uncle Pan and the others are done with their work. That way you'll have time to prepare."
Li Shaozhong was overjoyed when he heard this. "Then I'll listen to you, Uncle Ye. Xiao Ning and I will get engaged after the autumn harvest."
As he spoke, he took out a calendar to check the date.
Ye Xingguo found Li Shaozhong's anxiety amusing, and he and Li Shaozhong started looking for a date. They eventually settled on mid-November. By then, the farm work should be done, and everyone would have some free time.
Ye Shuning had a good harvest this autumn: over 2,000 kilograms of soybeans, several hundred kilograms of sweet potatoes, several hundred kilograms of potatoes, and over 100 kilograms of peanuts. She also had dozens of kilograms of sorghum, as well as some sesame seeds, red beans, and cotton. Although it wasn't much, Ye Shuning was satisfied, and it also helped prevent these things from going to waste.
Ye Xingguo was very surprised to hear his daughter say that mental power has this use. He even took time to take Ye Shuning to the fields of another village to collect the food left in the fields.
However, this period of time was short, as many fields had to be plowed again after the autumn harvest, and many would be planted with winter wheat. This meant that Ye Shuning would no longer be able to collect food.
Although the time was not long, I gained a lot.
Ye Xingguo joked with his daughter privately, "If you do this, those field mice and other animals will probably starve to death."
Ye Shuning said, "I will definitely miss some of them. I won't kill off the lives of those little animals."
Ye Xingguo felt that with this ability, his daughter would no longer have to worry about food.
After Yan Jingwen knew that Ye Shuning's father had come, he didn't dare to go to Ye Shuning's house to visit Li Shaozhong. He always felt guilty and was afraid that Ye Shuning's father would teach him a lesson.
But after a while, he felt that he should go see Li Shaozhong and Ye Shuning's father. After some psychological preparation, Yan Jingwen bought a lot of nutritional supplements, cakes, and fruits and rode his bicycle to Ye Shuning's house.
At this time, the autumn harvest had just ended and the public grain had been paid. Everyone rested at home for two days, and then it was time to distribute the grain.
