Chapter 0195 - Preparing the Dowry 3
Thinking of the word dowry, and then thinking back to the joke of the person who gave the gift, Feng Qingxue couldn't help blushing and heartbeat.
"Sister, your face is so red!" The wind and clouds shouted.
Feng Qingxue came back to his senses, and Zhengse said: "Although the busy farming season has passed, the weather is still very hot, I took the train for half a month, and I was tired all the way to home, so it was hot." ”
Feng Qingyun sighed, and then said: "Sister, fortunately you weren't at home when you were cutting wheat, otherwise you would be tired to death, I feel tired when I look at it!" It's cutting, beating, drying, and harvesting, many people say that God doesn't appreciate face, and when harvesting wheat, it rains several times in a row, why is it not raining in spring, but it is rainy in summer? A lot of wheat sprouted in the ground before it could be harvested! The wheat grains that were not dried were also covered with grass felt and sprouted steaming, almost not enough to pay the public grain! ”
Hearing her say this, Feng Qingxue frowned, and could imagine the busy scene and despair, and asked in a low voice, "This year's harvest is not good?" ”
Back in the spring, when it didn't rain, everyone was sure that the harvest would not be good.
The time when the wind and snow left was just before the farm was busy, so I didn't know the situation at home.
"It's not good, everyone says that they will be hungry again in the second half of the year." Feng Qingyun replied.
Feng Qingxue sighed softly.
"However," Feng Qingyun changed the topic, "not only the uncle, but also the second uncle, no matter what the regulations are, I am determined to let everyone grow as many sweet potatoes, corn, and potatoes as possible, and plant them on their own land, saying that these three things have a high yield, and if they are lucky, the harvest is enough for the brigade not to starve to death." ”
It is stipulated that the self-reserved land can only grow melons, fruits and vegetables, not crops.
Wang Zhengguo and Feng tied up to do this, you can imagine what kind of risk he was taking.
The common people at the bottom are not ignorant, and the family has a large population and a lot of self-reserved land, and planting crops can add a lot of rations to the family.
Because they can't afford not to eat vegetables in winter, each family leaves a little bit of land for their own vegetables to grow, and points to the private land where they grow vegetables and tells the outsiders who ask that it is their own land, so they fool it.
The Wang Lou Brigade and the Caohu Brigade did this, but it was actually the result of Wang Zhengguo and Feng Lian discussing together.
The Wang Lou brigade did not starve to death last year, so Feng tied up his envy and went to consult him in person.
The people are grateful for the kindness of these two branch secretaries, so when they saw Wang Fengqiao who came to find Feng Qingxue, their attitude was extremely enthusiastic, which led Wang Fengqiao to Feng Qingxue's house and did not forget to sigh.
Feng Qingxue knew the truth from her sister's mouth and pursed her lips and smiled.
After coming back with Lu Jiang, she didn't blacken her face, but she still put on makeup, revealing only three or five points of her original appearance.
Three or five points is enough, and a smile is like a flower.
Wang Fengqiao took her hand and sighed: "He looks so handsome and has such a good heart, no wonder Lu Jiang can't wait for a while!" No, you only got home yesterday, and his father came to ask me to discuss the marriage date with you early this morning, and found three dates, one is June 26, one is June 28, the second day of the beginning of autumn, and the other is the eighth day of the seventh month, the second day of Qixi Festival. ”
The days chosen for the red and white ceremonies of the farmers are all lunar calendars, and in the case of the solar calendar, it is August.
Today is the 18th day of the 6th month of the lunar calendar, and there are only 8 days left until the 26th.
