The Female Officer Became a Farmer After Getting Reborn

After the heavy rain in the afternoon, Ruyi began to worry about whether the weather would remain sunny in the future. Looking at the large golden rice fields that had not yet been harvested, she mentally calculated how long it would take to recover all the rice. barn.

Awei walked up to Ruyi and looked at him a little worriedly, "Brother Ruyi, I hope the weather will be sunny in the coming days and it won't rain heavily again."

The uncle who knew the weather and was a part-time worker walked up to the two of them and said with a smile: "Manager Zhou, the heavy rain like that in the afternoon will stop quickly. We don't have to worry about this kind of rain. We are just afraid of the kind that keeps falling." The continuous rainy weather will cause the rice to germinate and become moldy if it is not dried out in the home. If it is not taken home and left in the rice field, the rice stalks will fall over and the rice will germinate in the field. It should be sunny in the next few days after this heavy rain. Let’s work harder. , leave early and come back late to work for two more hours and try to finish it as early as possible."

Ruyi didn't expect them to volunteer to rush to work, so she gratefully raised her hands to him, "Uncle Yang, thank you very much! I will inform Madam about the extra hours you work and give you a little extra wages."

Uncle Yang thought to himself that the Zhou family was honest in their treatment of others. Even if the food was good, they would not deduct wages from their wages. I heard that his master was still a high-ranking official in the government office. How could such a family not be prosperous?

Uncle Yang thought in his mind, nodded with a satisfied smile and said: "Your master doesn't treat people like other people. He scolds us and doesn't treat us well. We are willing to work for your family if it is tiring. Of course, it will be even better if we can make money." alright!"

Ruyi cupped her hands and said with a smile: "Uncle Yang, don't worry, my husband and wife will not treat you badly."

"Everyone is willing to rush the work, so I'll tell them right away." Yang Bo happily told the other day laborers about the processing money.

After hearing this, other part-time workers felt that the Zhou family was sincere and they became more attentive to their work.

Everyone worked for another hour, until it got completely dark, then they packed up the threshing machine and took the threshing machine and rice back home.

After returning to the courtyard, several torches were burning, illuminating the courtyard brightly. Everyone washed their faces exhausted and sat down on the long table to start eating. There was a large pot of braised pork on the table. There are a large pot of braised duck with taro, a pot of cold cowpeas, a pot of fried eggplant with green beans, and a pot of egg drop soup. The same large pots of vegetables are placed in front of several people.

The little loach picked up a piece of duck meat and put it in his mouth. He smiled at Maizi and said, "Brother Maizi, the roasted duck with taro seeds is really delicious, and this little loach's mouth is full of oil after eating it."

Maizi was looking at the taro-roasted duck in the basin and was struggling. The little loach came to tease him and rolled his eyes at him in anger, "Black loach, even the big hooves can't stop your mouth."

Mother Yun looked at Maizi and laughed, "You can eat wheat without worry. My grandma always chooses the female ducks that the male ducks kill and keep them so as not to delay laying eggs."

"That's great!" Maizi smiled happily and put a piece of duck meat into his mouth, "Yeah! It's delicious. I didn't give them so much screw meat and clam meat in vain."

Uncle Cai looked at the children on the table and said with a smile: "These brats have good energy. Look at those little girls dozing off even while eating."

Lao Zou glanced at the children and said, "Who is not tired during the busy farming season? It's only when we take the food home that we feel at ease. We all ate and rested quickly. We have to get up an hour earlier tomorrow!"

"That's right." Everyone ate all the vegetables in the basin like a storm, went to the bathroom to take a shower, and then lay on the bed and fell asleep.

In the main courtyard, Ruyi told Li Yu and his wife that the part-time workers were willing to rush the work and the processing money. Zhou Jia nodded and said to him: "Just give them an extra 10% of their wages as you said, and provide them with food for those who get up early and stay up late." better."

Ruyi said with a smile: "These day laborers have all come here to work during the land reclamation. They all say that our food is good and they are willing to help us."

"It's not easy for these people to make money by doing some work, and they are reluctant to eat even if they make a little money." Zhou Jia looked at Ruyi's tanned face, stood up, patted his shoulder, and said warmly: "Ruyi, you have been tired for a long day too. , go back and rest!”

Ruyi felt warm in her heart, "I understand, Master and Madam, you should rest early."

After Ruyi left, Li Yu picked up Yangyang and walked to the room. Yangyang, who was dozing off on Li Yuhuai's shoulder, suddenly said, "Daddy, I'm so tired from working!"

Zhou Jia looked at his sunburned little face, smiled and touched his head and said, "I know you are tired from working. How many ears of rice have Yang'er picked back?"

Yangyang raised his head and looked at Li Yu, "Give it to mother. Mother said she would make cakes for us to eat."

Li Yu also smiled and praised, "Not bad. Yang'er and Qijin have persevered these past few days and have not become deserters."

"That's good." Zhou Jia smiled and kissed him, and Yangyang threw herself into Zhou Jia's arms, "Daddy, give me a hug." The three members of the family returned to the room with a smile.

The next day everyone got up half an hour earlier than the previous two days. Shui Sheng and the older children rubbed their eyes and followed the adults to the rice field. They found that there were already people in the rice field. Ah Wei took a closer look and saw that it was Mr. and Mrs. Yang. There is also the family named Shi in Shanxia Village.

Yang smiled heartily and said, "My mother-in-law said that we would come and help with the work for a few days."

A total of fifteen people from the Shi family came to the Shi family. The gray-haired father Shi smiled honestly and said, "Manager Zhou, my family only has four acres of rice fields. The rest are all sorghum grown in the mountains. My three little grandsons are all grown in the mountains." While studying in the school, the old man brought the children to help.”

Ruyi raised her hands to Father Shi and the Yang couple and said, "Thank you so much. I was worried that it would start raining before I could take it back. Uncle Shi and Brother Yang were a big help."

Shi Laohan and Mr. Yang cupped their hands and smiled, "If Manager Zhou is polite, we will work harder. Mr. Zhou has really helped me and us a lot."

Uncle Yang looked at the few people who were greeting each other politely and smiled and said, "Okay! We are all loving and righteous people, so don't be polite and just go ahead and do it!"

Father Shi laughed heartily, "What this brother is saying is that the crops are growing so well and cannot be left to rot in the fields. Let's start working on them!"

When everyone saw a dozen more strong laborers coming, they all started to work with confidence.

In the evening, Jixiangzhui returned to Yunzhou on the back of Grandma Han's mule cart. When she came out of the carriage house, she followed her into an alleyway. When they arrived at a secluded place, no one came forward and slapped her unconscious. He put on the sack, carried it out and put it in the carriage, and drove out of the city to the village at the foot of Luoji Mountain. When he arrived at the foot of the mountain when it was getting dark, Jixiang looked up and saw that the walls of the mountain village, which was still under construction, had begun to be built, and the rice fields were crowded with people. Everyone is still busy harvesting rice.

Jixiang drove his cart to the gate of Zhuangzi and met Ruyi who was driving an oxcart. Ruyi glanced at the dusty Jixiang and said, "You're back! Have you brought anything back?"

Jixiang looked at Ruyi, who was quite tanned, and nodded, "I brought it back. Are the master and his wife in the main courtyard?"

Ruyi nodded, "Let's go! We just returned to the yard."
