Chapter 67: Give it to me?
The autumn sun is still very useful, and I can go to work the next day.
The work at this time is naturally not to go to the ground to dig, as the ground is still muddy.
Now it's time to shell the corn kernels, right in the granary.
If it weren't for the heavy rain the day before, the corn would have been shelled into kernels overnight and then dried in the sun. After the grain was delivered, the rest could have been distributed.
Food-related stories are always the most exciting.
Everyone looked energetic when they arrived, and the experienced people had already taken their stone mills to the threshing ground since morning.
The land in the wheat field was compacted very firmly from the beginning, and even after being washed by rain, it would not be as muddy as the village roads. Now, rolling it around with a stone mill a few times will make it firm again, so that the corn can be dried as soon as possible.
The rest of the people were shelling corn in the granary.
Everyone has experience. Bring a small stool or tree stump from your home, or if all else fails, just take off your shoes and sit on them.
An experienced person doesn’t even need any tools to peel corn. He can just pick up two corns and rub them against each other to peel them.
But someone inexperienced like Tang Wan would never be able to learn this skill and could only use the tools to do the work.
All the villagers are here and it is very lively.
There were people working and supervisors, for fear that someone would secretly take food home when no one was paying attention.
At this time, food is life, and those who steal food will use all kinds of means.
When they get off work, the team leader always asks them to take off their shoes to check whether they have brought any food with them.
The days suddenly became busy.
Tang Wan could still persist in peeling corn kernels all day long at first, but on the second day, she followed Grandma Bai's advice and wrapped two strips of cloth around her hands.
Wrapping a strip of cloth two fingers wide around the fingertips can effectively prevent the pain caused by friction.
Grandma Bai was relieved to see that Tang Wan had found a strip of cloth to wrap herself, but Qin Zheng was a little surprised when he saw the smooth fabric wrapped around Tang Wan's fingertips.
When I am so busy, I can't take care of other things.
The work on the ground was endless, and even though the work Tang Wan was assigned was not heavy, it was still exhausting both physically and mentally.
In this way, more than half a month passed and the busiest time was finally over.
The wheat on the ground has also been planted.
If nothing unexpected happens, the groundhog will not have any heavy work to do for the time being.
Finally I can rest.
On the second day of free time, Tang Wan slept in for a rare time.
"Is Qin Zheng not at home?" Tang Wan talked to Grandma Bai while washing up.
"Dongzi came early this morning before daybreak. There are many people in their village, and they finished earlier than us. They have been anxious to go to Yingzi's house for a long time. So, they came early this morning and said they would buy some things first so that they can take them with them when they go to Yingzi's house for the first time."
After Grandma Bai said this, Tang Wan realized that Grandma Bai was dressed very smartly today.
"Are we going to Yingzi's house when they come back?"
"Yes, Dongzi has been pushing so hard these days. Wang Pozi has already told them about this matter. Otherwise, they would have to find a matchmaker. With her mouth, she can talk a lot even with Dongzi's family situation. Now Dongzi has the opportunity to come to her house."
It was Grandma Bai who recommended Mrs. Wang, and she is indeed quite capable.
As the saying goes, a matchmaker's words are more beautiful than singing.
