Chapter 151 Great Harvest



It was as if Old Lady Qin had a telepathic connection with him. Every morning when she woke up, she would go to the cellar to take things out and process them.

In order to make his family work less hard, Qin Han would use his spiritual power to help the Qin family harvest rice every night.

Old Lady Qin and others also discovered that when they came to continue harvesting every morning, there seemed to be less rice left unharvested.

Everyone understood this change tacitly, and it went without saying that it was definitely God helping the Qin family.

With the help of the gods, the entire thirteen acres of land were harvested in four days.

If Qin Han wasn't afraid of arousing the suspicion of the villagers, he could shorten the time to one day.

After the rice was harvested, Old Lady Qin and her daughters-in-law were responsible for tying it up with ropes, while Old Man Qin and his two sons were responsible for carrying it to the threshing ground to dry it for a few days. They then used oxen to pull rolling stones to crush the rice and separate the grains.

If you don’t have a cow at home, you can borrow one. If you can’t borrow one, you can only rely on human labor, but it will be very hard.

In Zaojiazhuang, only two households raised cows, and three households raised donkeys.

During the harvest season, the cows and donkeys are like turntables, never stopping for a moment.

This year, Lao Qin's family had a bumper rice harvest, with every seedling covered with golden rice grains.

With Qin Han's secret help, the rice grains were removed from the stalks in two days.

The total amount was more than 25,000 kilograms, which was twice as much as other families. This made everyone in the village envious.

However, everyone had a good harvest of rice this year, at least the yield was higher than last year.

Although I was sweating profusely every day when I got home late at night, I was satisfied in my heart.

If we talk about who had a small harvest this year, it would be Mrs. Fu’s family.

During the Grain in Ear season, it happened that the three able-bodied men in the family were injured, and the three daughters-in-law were the ones planting rice.

Later, because the rice was infested with insects and pesticides were not applied in time, Mrs. Fu's family had the worst harvest.

From the same dozen acres of land, only a little over 10,000 jin were harvested, and after shelling, there were only about 7,000 jin. After paying more than 1,000 jin of public grain, there were only 6,000 jin left.

In addition to eating the food, a portion of it has to be sold, which is only enough to pay the tuition for the grandchildren, and there is not much money left.

There are still two sons in the family who are not married yet. Mrs. Fu gets very worried when she thinks about this.

While scolding her daughter-in-law for being useless, she was also jealous of the good harvest of the Qin family.

The land of the two families is obviously similar, so why is there such a big difference in yield?

Tomorrow is the day when the village goes to the grain station to pay public grain. Qin Jiandang and Qin Jianguo set out early the next morning pushing a wooden cart.

Qin Man, Qin Xia and several other little boys also clamored to go, and finally Qin Jianguo couldn't persuade them and had to take them with him.

But we agreed that even if I get tired of walking, there won’t be an adult to carry me.

Old Mrs. Qin gave some money and a food coupon to the eldest brother, asking them to buy some things like melons, peanuts and candy from the supply and marketing cooperative.

The house will be completed soon, and then we will distribute candy to the villagers.

Afterwards, Old Lady Qin hired a tractor and transported more than 10,000 kilograms of rice to the supply and marketing cooperative to sell.

Although some people come to your door to buy it directly, the price is not as good as that of the supply and marketing cooperatives.

Just when we solved the rice problem, now we have to deal with the peanut problem.

It wasn't until mid-August that I finally finished the work, and Qin Han's help was indispensable.

At this time, Lao Qin's house was also built. It was a two-story house made of blue bricks and tiles. There was also a balcony railing on the second floor. Standing on the balcony, one could overlook the entire Zaojiazhuang.

To prevent children from falling from the guardrail, Qin Jianye specially designed a 1.5-meter-high railing.

The entire house was built according to Qin Jianye’s drawings, and it looks very grand.

Every day, many villagers go to see Lao Qin’s new house. They have never seen such a stylish new house in their lives and they are so envious.

Especially the children standing by the railing on the second floor and looking outside found it very strange.

Everyone envies the children of the Qin family, wondering why they were not born in the Qin family.

For this reason, every time Qin Man and others go out, there will be many people who try to curry favor with them approaching them.

Just to be able to sleep at his house for one night in the future, but Qin Man and the others rejected her without hesitation.

They have never slept in the new house before, and the adults will definitely not agree. They dare not make the decision on their own, otherwise they will end up with a meal of stir-fried pork with bamboo shoots.

On the first day the house was built, Old Mrs. Qin and her daughters-in-law cleaned it up, and Old Man Qin and his two sons helped move the furniture.

Many of the tables and chairs were made by Qin Jiandang. On one side of the hall, he also built a sofa. The bamboo was carefully polished, making it extremely smooth to sit on and even cool in the summer.

The children lay on it and were reluctant to get down.

It took Old Lady Qin and others several days to move all the things in the thatched hut into the new house.

"The weather is too hot. Old man, go cut some watermelon for the children!" Old Mrs. Qin wiped the sweat from her forehead!

She didn't plant many watermelons this year, but the watermelons grew well. One watermelon weighed more than 30 kilograms, enough for the whole family to eat.

Qin Han, who was over eight months old, finally got to eat the first bite of watermelon in his life as he wished.

The watermelon was sweet and juicy. When Qin Han took a bite, the juice of the watermelon flowed down the corners of his mouth.

Xie Yuwei didn't dare to feed Han'er too much. After all, watermelon is cold in nature, and children have weak stomachs, so eating too much will easily cause diarrhea.

So after giving Han'er two tastes, she wanted to take it away.

But Qin Han had already guessed her intention. He quickly stretched out his hands, grabbed the bottom of the watermelon tightly, and put it into his mouth.

Watermelon is so delicious that you can’t get enough of it with just a few bites.

"Mom, look at Han'er..." Xie Yuwei looked at Han'er who were eating each other, not knowing whether to laugh or cry.

Old Lady Qin knew that her grandson was a greedy little cat, so she said with a smile: "When our Han'er grows up, he will definitely know how to eat.

If he wants to eat, give him some, but don’t give him any more after he finishes this piece.”

Finally, Qin Han got to eat the whole watermelon as he wished. He had irrigated the watermelon with spiritual water, so the taste was naturally good.

He even couldn't eat the dates from the next yard because they were too hard and difficult to digest.

Although he has the Qiankun Realm and the blessing of spiritual power, his body is still in the state of an infant after all, and everything has to be based on the standards of an infant.

Fortunately, in two or three months, he will be able to walk. By then, he can secretly hide in his room to eat whatever he wants, and the adults will not stop him, Qin Han thought happily.

"Mom, our house is built. Are we going to have a wedding banquet?" Qin Jiandang asked while eating watermelon.

"I promised Captain Liu that I would treat him to a meal after the house is built. Let's set up a few tables and invite those who have a good relationship with our family to have a meal.

Oh, and your aunt's family, it's the Mid-Autumn Festival soon, your aunt likes to eat rice dumplings, and I'll make more rice dumplings for your aunt and her family to take home. "Old Lady Qin hasn't seen her sister for two years, and she really misses her.

Qin Yu, who was eating watermelon, heard this and hurriedly said, "Grandma, can I eat rice dumplings?"
