Zhang Erya: "Girl, please don't do it, lest you get your hands dirty.
We’ll be done in no time.”
Qin Shuwan smiled and said, "I will learn it sooner or later, the sooner I learn it the better."
Why is this seedling planted on the lower side of the nest?"
Zhang Erya was heartbroken. How could she bear to let such a beautiful and fair-skinned girl go to the fields?
But now the daughter doesn't recognize them, and she is an educated youth, so she has no choice but to go to the fields.
Seriously tell my daughter, "When watering, the water will flow to the lower places.
Plant the seedlings on the shorter side so they can absorb more water."
Qin Shuwan nodded in understanding, "So that's how it is!"
"By the way, Auntie, what kind of work is going on in the fields now?"
Zhang Erya said as she was making nests, "The busiest autumn harvest is over.
Now the main thing is to cut the corn stalks, pull the grass out of the ground, and then turn the soil
All the land in our brigade must be turned over in November.
Only when it snows in December will the insect eggs in the ground freeze to death."
Qin Shuwan: "We've already finished turning the soil in November, so what are we going to do in December?"
"Open up the wasteland! With the increase in population, there will not be enough food if we don't open up the wasteland.
However, the crops on the newly reclaimed wasteland did not grow well in the first two years.
It takes nurturing to make it a good land.”
Qin Shuwan: "After working like this for a year, will the family have enough to eat?"
"In a good year, with no drought during planting and ample rain when the corn is filling, and no strong winds, as long as you don't cheat or slack off during work, you'll have no problem filling your stomach."
If it is a disaster year, it is hard to say
Didn’t the drought a few years ago kill many people with starvation?
Qin Shuwan: No wonder most people in the countryside yearn for life in the city. As long as they have a stable job, they can have a stable income.
Farmers work hard for a year, but a natural disaster may wipe out their harvest.
“Farming is not easy”
Zhang Erya smiled and said, "Farming is not easy, but life is much better now than before.
The crops we grow throughout the year are paid as public grain, and then they are distributed according to the work points, 70% of which are labor and 30% are labor.
In the past, if you farmed for the landlord, it would be good if you could keep a layer of land for yourself.
If the harvest is bad, not only will I not have anything left, I will also be in debt."
Qin Shuwan caught another key word, "Auntie, what is the seven labors and three labors of life?" This chapter has been read (please click on the next chapter to continue reading!)
