Chapter 715 Harvesting Rice
Having done this since childhood, he was not at all unfamiliar with it. Clumps of rice were cut and placed there, waiting for Shen Xuening and others to thresh them.
Zhao Qiang said: "Yingying, you have such good grades, but you also go to the fields to harvest rice?"
Shen Yingying asked back: "What's the difference between having good grades and working hard?"
Zhao Qiang gave an example: "Yes, look at Zhang Qian from the next village. Because she has good grades, her family doesn't let her do anything. She just reads books at home every day."
Shen Yingying emphasized: "Combining work and rest."
Zhao Qiang shook his head: "That being said, which student with good grades would waste time doing this?"
Shen Yingying poured the rice in her hand onto the rice pile: "That's the difference between people."
Zhao Qiang nodded in agreement: "Yes, people are so different from each other. You always rank first in the grade, and no one else can beat you. You are really different."
Shen Yingying said: "Everyone is different, you can't just compare grades."
Zhao Qiang said: "Although what you said makes sense, we are students now. We can only compare grades. Besides, in terms of family background, others cannot compare with you."
Shen Yingying said: "Then don't compare yourself to me, compare yourself to others, won't that make you feel better?"
Zhao Qiang said: "That person is always comparing himself with those who are better than himself. What is there to compare with those who are worse than himself?"
Shen Yingying said: "That being said, I think we should not compare ourselves with others. For example, there are definitely people who have better grades and more money than me. Just work hard."
Zhao Qiang nodded: "That's what you said."
As they were talking, Mother Qin and Liu Juan brought over the herbal tea.
Liu Juan said loudly: "The herbal tea is here. If you are thirsty, come and drink it. The herbal tea I brew is better than the ones you buy outside."
Shen Xue Ning came over to drink herbal tea, and seeing that Shen Wenxu hadn't come, she asked, "Mom, what is Wenxu doing?"
Liu Juan smiled and said, "He is doing laundry at home."
Mother Qin couldn't help but praise: "Your child is really sensible."
Liu Juan said modestly: "It's OK."
People came over to drink herbal tea one after another. Mother Qin also drank a cup: "This herbal tea feels like real herbal tea. After drinking it, my body feels cool."
Liu Juan said: "Some of them are herbs grown in our own home, and some are wild herbs picked in the mountains. The effect is very good when boiled together."
Mother Qin couldn't help but ask: "Do you have any more at home? Can you sell some to me? I'll send it back home for Zizhou's grandparents to drink."
Liu Juan said quickly: "What are you talking about buying? There are a lot of them at home. Just take them. I'll go back and pack them for you later."
Mother Qin smiled and said, "That's fine."
After drinking the herbal tea, everyone went back to work. They had to harvest rice from at least two fields today.
……
Threshing ground.
Granny Zhao was passing by the rice drying field and saw Granny Shen drying rice there, so she stepped forward to greet her: "Sister-in-law, your rice grains are so big."
Grandma Shen replied: "You also bought the rice from Ningning, so it should be about the same size, right?"
Granny Zhao smiled and said, "It's almost the same, and each ear of rice has a lot of rice grains, hundreds of them."
Grandma Shen was surprised: "Can you count them?"
Granny Zhao shook her head and said, "My grandson counted them. There are more than 500 grains in one ear of rice. The ears are bent by the weight. They are growing really well."
Grandma Shen said, "Then your family will also have a good harvest in a while."
"Of course, the villagers who planted rice had a good harvest this year." Granny Zhao added, "The seeds we bought from you are really good. They produce a lot of good quality and taste good. Eating them is good for the body. We will buy seeds from you again in the future."
Grandma Shen said: "Welcome, welcome."
As she was talking, Liu Juan came over with some herbal tea: "Mom, I brought you some herbal tea. Drink it when you're thirsty."
Grandma Shen responded: "Okay."
Liu Juan walked over, took a bamboo rake, and helped Grandma Shen to dry the rice.
A few more villagers passed by one after another. When they saw them, they greeted them and praised the rice in the threshing ground.
This rice is different from the ones they grew before. Not only does it produce more rice, but it is also bigger. The rice cooked with it is fragrant and delicious. Everyone likes it very much.
……
Tourist Zhang Xia came to the threshing ground. She was accompanied by a fox rented from a shop. She was dressed in casual clothes and looked very relaxed.
She greeted Grandma Shen: "Grandma, are you harvesting rice today?"
Grandma Shen was already used to talking to strangers, and at this moment she was very casual: "Yeah, why are you here?"
Zhang Xia asked directly: "Are you selling this rice?"
Grandma Shen asked: "Why do you ask that?"
Zhang Xia said, "I want to buy some to eat at home."
Grandma Shen waved her hands and said, "If we don't sell our rice, it won't be enough for our family to eat. We really can't sell it."
Zhang Xia looked at the golden rice on the ground and asked, "Isn't this enough to eat?"
Grandma Shen explained: "In addition to the family, we also supply the canteen. Even if we don't sell all the rice, it will only be enough for half a year, so we can't sell it."
Zhang Xia quickly said, "I don't want too much. Just buy ten kilograms of rice. I want to try something new."
Grandma Shen still refused: "The rice we eat in the cafeteria now is grown by our family. It's from last year and it's also fresh."
Zhang Xia still wanted to buy: "I want to eat this year's new rice."
Seeing the other party's sincerity, Grandma Shen couldn't refuse anymore, so she said: "It takes several days to dry the rice. If you really want it, then come to me after I dry it, and I will give you new rice."
Zhang Xia was finally happy: "Thank you, grandma."
Grandma Shen waved her hand: "You're welcome."
Zhang Xia left happily with the fox.
Grandma Shen continued to tend her rice, muttering to herself, "There are still people who know what's good. My rice is good. Someone came to buy it just after I started harvesting it."
……
Time flies to noon.
At noon, the weather was hot and the sun was scorching. Shen Xuening and a few others transported the threshed rice to the threshing ground, and then went to the canteen to eat.
It was so hot at noon that Shen Xue Ning asked everyone to come to the rice fields to harvest at four o'clock, otherwise they would easily get heatstroke.
After going to the cafeteria to eat, Shen Xue Ning returned home to take a shower, change clothes, and then went to the office to process the morning's documents.
There are a lot of documents to look at every day, and now it is the busy farming season, so she can only find some time to spare.
In addition to the things here, I also have to keep an eye on the mooncake production line, so I'm very busy every day.
After watching quietly for two hours, Huang Han called: "Sister Xue Ning, I have news to tell you."
Shen Xue Ning said calmly: "What's the matter?"
Huang Han said: "So far, 300 individuals and teams have signed up, and there will definitely be many more in the future. Even if there are no more in the future, we won't be able to finish all the programs in three days."
Shen Xue Ning thought for a moment: "Three hundred?" After a pause, "It doesn't matter, continue to sign up. We still have two stages here, which can be used at the same time."
Huang Han heard it and said, "Okay, I understand."
Shen Xue Ning thought for a moment and said, "Teacher Huang, we will close the registration channel when the number of applicants reaches 500. It will be difficult to arrange if there are too many applicants."
Huang Han responded: "I know."
Shen Xuening hung up the phone. So far, the competition was going very smoothly and she was relieved.
……
At four o'clock in the afternoon, Shen Xue Ning continued to harvest rice. Others also came, and Shen Wenxu also trotted to the rice field to help with the work.
Shen Dong felt sorry for his youngest son: "Wen Xu, go home and help your mother."
Shen Wenxu refused: "No, I want to help you harvest rice."
Shen Dong said: "You are small, how can you help? If you get heatstroke later, you will need someone to take care of you. Go back quickly."
Shen Wenxu was reluctant to go back: "Dad, I want to help you with the work."
Grandpa Shen said, "If he wants to do it, just let him do it. It's okay to exercise a little. If he gets heatstroke, he can take some medicine. It won't be a big deal."
Shen Wenxu quickly echoed: "Grandpa is right."
Shen Dong looked at his son and said, "Forget it. Just do it if you like. If you can't stand it, go back."
Shen Wenxu nodded quickly: "Okay."
He didn't do any heavy work. He just put the grains into sacks. Then Shen Dong carried the sacks to the tricycle and transported them to the threshing ground.
He has a small body but great energy. With his help, Shen Dong saves a lot of effort.
Grandma Shen came to the ridge of the field: "Ningning, this morning a fan said she wanted to buy our rice. I refused at first, but I saw that she was persistent, so I agreed. Is everything okay?"
Shen Xue Ning asked: "How much did she buy?"
Grandma Shen replied: "Ten kilograms of new rice."
Shen Xue Ning didn't say much, just said: "It doesn't matter, since you agreed, then sell it to her when the time comes."
Grandma Shen was relieved and went back to work.
……
Sunset West Mountain.
Shen Xue Ning called everyone: "Let's stop working, everyone take a break, wash the mud off your legs, and then you can go have dinner."
At this time, the sun had already set on the top of the mountain, and the whole world was dyed with a layer of dark black, with golden yellow mixed into the dark black, and it would soon be dark.
Grandpa Shen asked: "Is there any food in the cafeteria now?"
Shen Xue Ning always makes thoughtful arrangements: "Yes, I asked grandma to save some for us. They are all delicious. Everyone can eat more later." Harvesting rice is so hard, how can we not prepare delicious food.
Zhao Qiang asked expectantly, "Do we have a share too?"
Shen Xue Ning smiled and said, "Yes, let's go together. When we harvest rice in the future, you will all eat with us."
Li Can said happily: "Sister Xue Ning, you are so nice."
Shen Xue Ning glanced at them and said, "Thank you for helping me. I have exceeded my quota today. I have finished all three fields and even harvested a lot of rice from the fourth field."
Li Can said sensibly: "You give us so much money, we must work hard."
As they were talking, everyone put the last of the rice into sacks, carried them onto the tricycle, and Shen Dong took them to the threshing ground.
Shen Xuening and others packed up their tools, washed the mud off their legs, and walked towards the cafeteria together.
