Chapter 291 No Return
Ground.
The people working were harvesting wheat with great effort.
Huo Junshan was not in the field today.
He was in the threshing ground, working with a few men using a stone roller to stick the wheat together so that the wheat could come out of the ears.
There are many processes involved.
The old ox in front was pulling the stone roller in circles.
The person in front pulling the old ox is Huo Junshan.
The men behind kept turning the wheat up and down again and again.
So that the old ox can run over it.
This is the only way to crush the wheat to the greatest extent possible without wasting any of it.
The wheat was pulled in carts. The men spread the wheat out first and waited for the old oxen to crush the wheat.
Go over and continue crushing, just like this, without stopping for even a day.
This job looks easy, but it is actually more tiring than harvesting wheat.
Because the fields have to be turned over constantly, the wheat comes in continuously.
They can't rest for a moment.
At most, just drink some water.
There were big beads of sweat on everyone's face.
Huo Junshan wiped the sweat off his face with a towel and took a sip of water.
Keep working.
It turned out that he didn't want to come to fight, but the captain forced him to come.
He also said that he had to work hard to support the children in the future.
We can't let down our guard any longer.
The work of threshing wheat is worth twelve work points a day, which means I get off work later than others.
The wheat harvesters have all finished their work, but the threshers have to gather the wheat and cover it with something, otherwise there will be dew the next day.
Good night, I want a few men to sleep here and watch over it.
Originally, whoever is fighting should watch, but Huo Junshan only works here and he will not sleep here at night.
He was worried about Yanyan being alone at home.
The captain had no choice but to agree.
Yun Ningyan slept on the swing for a while, then raised her hand to look at her hand and it was already past eleven o'clock.
Huo Junshan is threshing wheat in the field today, and she has to go over to deliver his meal.
I entered the space, stewed the rice, and then cooked a chicken.
She finished it directly in the space.
Chicken stewed with hazel mushrooms, she added some potatoes.
This chicken was a pheasant caught in the mountains. It has been raised in the space for a long time and is very fat.
She finally killed the chicken, and when she cut open its stomach, she almost vomited.
After finally cleaning up, I started to blanch the vegetables.
She soaked some cremini and other mushrooms and peeled two potatoes.
Just started stewing the chicken.
She made big plate chicken today.
First, fry the chicken with rock sugar until it turns brown, then add two bottles of beer. She didn’t add any water, so it would taste better.
Add a little bean paste and stir-fry until it turns red oil, then put it into the chicken pieces.
After the water boils, add the hazel mushrooms and appropriate amount of seasonings and wait for them to cook.
After about half an hour, the chicken was cooked.
Finally, she cut two green peppers and put them in.
He filled two lunch boxes with rice.
She was afraid that Huo Junshan would not eat enough, so she pressed it down with a shovel.
Finally, he took out two lunch boxes and filled them with chicken chunks.
She took two pairs of chopsticks and a bowl.
He was also carrying a kettle filled with spiritual spring water.
They put everything into the basket and went to the field.
Huo Junshan also felt a little hungry at this time, and Huo Guodong smiled and said, "Third brother, do you want to go home?"
Huo Junshan shook his head: "I won't go back, I'll eat here."
"Then your sister-in-law will bring the meal over later and we can eat together."
Huo Junshan shook his head again: "No need, Ningning will be sent over in a while."
He looked at the entrance of the village and saw a little girl carrying a basket walking towards him.
He smiled and said, "Let's take a break and eat first before we work again!"
"Just in time, my husband is about to bring us food, let's take a break!"
Others said the same thing.
Huo Junshan settled the old ox to the place where there was hay so that he could eat too.
He walked quickly towards Yun Ningyan.
"Yan Yan, is it hot? Give it to me!"
He reached out and took the basket from Yun Ningyan's hand.
Yun Ningyan smiled and said, "You must be hungry. Come on and eat. It's still hot!"
Huo Junshan took her to a big tree.
Huo Junshan went to the river to wash his hands and then came over to eat.
Yun Ningyan took out the bowl and scooped out another full bowl of rice.
I just use what's left in the lunch box.
Huo Junshan frowned: "You only eat this little?"
"I just ate a lot of strawberries at home. I'm not hungry now. There are some more at home. If I get hungry, I'll eat them."
The two began to eat.
Others also started to eat one after another.
Huo Guodong saw Yun Ningyan bringing him food.
He smiled and said, "I just said that the third brother should eat with me, and you came over."
Yun Ningyan smiled and said, "Brother, why don't you come over and eat something? I brought a lot."
Huo Guodong waved his hand: "You guys eat, your sister-in-law brought a lot."
Huo Junshan looked at his lunch box and saw only a few pieces of bacon.
He simply took the lunch box and took out half of the chicken from Huo Guodong.
Huo Guodong originally said no, but Huo Junshan was quick and had already put the food into his bowl, so he couldn't get it out.
Seeing that Yun Ningyan didn't react at all and instead smiled at the two of them, he felt relieved.
Although he knew that the third son's wife was a good person, he was still afraid that the two of them would be angry!
The old father has said more than once that he should get along well with the third child.
In fact, he knew his father's intentions, and the third brother was a man who could do great things.
Maybe they will have to rely on the third brother's support in the future?
Huo Guodong tasted a piece of chicken and couldn't help but praise: "Sister-in-law, your meal is really delicious."
"Why does your sister-in-law use the same ingredients as you when she stews the chicken?"
"Her cooking doesn't taste as good as yours?"
Huo Junshan explained: "Ningning uses a lot of seasonings, including bean paste, and most importantly, it is stewed with beer, so there is no fishy smell."
Huo Guodong nodded: "No wonder."
Soon, Yun Ningyan was full.
She put down her chopsticks and said, "I'm full. You can finish all of this so I don't have to go back and forth to get more."
"Do you still need me to come and deliver dinner tonight?"
Huo Junshan nodded. He looked at the pile of wheat and saw that there was still a lot of it!
The wheat will be sent here in the afternoon when it is harvested.
What needs to be cut today must be finished today.
Then it will be sent to other places to dry.
"Let Lao Wu come and take you there in the evening! Don't go out at night. I'm worried!"
Yun Ningyan: "Okay! I'll cook dumplings for you tonight. I remember there are still a lot of dumplings left from last time."
Huo Junshan smiled and said, "Okay."
After dinner, Yun Ningyan watched here for a while.
The captain came over and saw her, so he smiled and said, "Ningning, why are you here? It's too hot. Go back quickly and don't suffer here."
Yun Ningyan smiled and said, "I'll be back soon. I'll watch here for a while."
After the men finished their meal, the wives of each family went home.
Only Yun Ningyan is still here.
Huo Junshan rested for a while and was about to start working. He said, "Go back! It's too hot here!"
Yun Ningyan smiled and said, "I'll leave the water in this kettle for you."
She got up and went back.
I feel sleepy now, I'll go back to sleep for a while.
