Spring Thunder Chapter 0132 Farmer
Three days passed in a flash, and there was no funeral in Wenchangwei during these three days.
The reclamation team planted 60 acres of cotton this year and is now at the end of the picking season.
At five o'clock in the morning, Xian Hailan was called to pick bean sprouts. She was busy for two hours. Everyone else had already gone to have breakfast, but she was still busy.
Xian Yaorong dotes on his daughter very much. Although she is a rural child, she has never done high-intensity farm work and her hands and feet are not quick at all.
Nan Yi squatted beside Xian Hailan, eating a bowl of sweet potato flour and egg noodles.
Crack an egg into the sweet potato flour and mix the flour into a thin and sticky consistency. Put some oil in the pan and spread the sweet potato flour into a thin pancake. Remove from the pan when it is 80% cooked. Wait for the pancake to cool down and cut it into wide strips.
Next, you can follow the steps for cooking noodles.
There is no need to add other toppings or marinade. Just boil it in water and sprinkle some green onions on it and the taste will be good.
Nan Yi slurped up a bowl of noodles, pulled a piece of cowgrass from the side, removed the extra leaves, leaving only a stalk, and put it in his mouth, using it as a toothpick.
He lit a cigarette, took two puffs, and started to scold Xian Hailan, "What are you doing? You haven't even finished picking bean sprouts yet. At this rate, how many work points can you get in a day?"
Xian Hailan didn't say anything, just lowered her head and picked the fruits silently.
"Hurry up, we still have to pick oyster mushrooms. If you're slow at work, get up early. Get up at three o'clock tomorrow. You have a stupid head. You're useless except studying hard. You're not as capable as Anju."
Whether picking bean sprouts or gathering oyster mushrooms, Nan Yi followed Xian Hailan, cursing all the time, as unpleasantly as he could.
After the sun came out for a while and the dew on the cotton dried, Nan Yi drove Xian Hailan to the field to pick cotton.
"Hurry up, you haven't eaten yet."
Xian Hailan indeed had not eaten. She had only eaten two meals in the previous three days. She worked slowly today and skipped breakfast. Now it was already lunchtime, so she had no chance of eating lunch.
"Nan Yi, Nan Yi."
"Wei Qi, here."
Angju walked to Nanyi's side and put down a fish basket. "I just caught crabs."
"Is it clean?"
"Clean, I haven't eaten for several days."
"Okay, let's grill it."
Nan Yi took a look into the fish basket, pulled out a few cotton stalks, went to the edge of the field to collect some hay, built a bonfire directly in the cotton field, and threw the crabs into the fire one by one.
"Weiqi, do you want to go to the capital with me for a few days?"
"Is the capital city fun?"
"It's fun. There's a park there, and there are airplanes, big airplanes."
"Can it fly?"
"Uh, no."
Nan Yi didn't know whether Ang Ju would be disappointed if he explained that the plane was just a shell and its parts had been removed.
“It’s not fun.”
"Plane can't fly, but there are other ways to fly, such as electric cars and trains, the whirring kind."
"No, fishing is fun. I'm familiar with it."
As soon as Ang Ju reminded him, Nan Yi took a cotton stalk and pulled the crab out of the fire.
The two of them shared a feast of fresh river food, and Nan Yi would take the time to insult Xian Hailan. After they were full, he continued to seduce Ang Ju to go out for a walk.
Nan Yi wanted Ang Ju to go out and see a different world, and not wait until the day he left without taking a single step out of Wenchangwei.
Ang Ju remained unmoved by Nan Yi's temptation.
Perhaps, in Angju’s simple mind, guarding the sky and land in front of him is the happiest thing.
On the first day, Xian Hailan persisted, but she was also very tired.
The next day, at three o'clock in the morning, Nan Yi went to Xian Yaorong's house and knocked on the door, waking up Xian Hailan, who was sleeping like a dead pig, to repeat the work of the previous day.
Day 3…
Day 5…
On the seventh day, Nan Yi rushed into Xian Hailan's room again and pulled her out of bed. Xian Hailan looked a little pale, tired for several days, and with poor sleep, her body was a little overdrawn.
"Brother Nan Yi, I can't take it anymore. Please, let me sleep a little longer." Xian Hailan, who was pulled up, said to Nan Yi in a daze.
"What the hell are you doing sleeping? Even though the village has dividends, you can't just sit there and do nothing. It's okay, you just look a little pale, you're not going to die, hurry up, we need to load the truck today, you're the youngest on the reclamation team, you're a strong laborer so you need to work harder so the aunts can have a rest."
"Wuwuwu..." Xian Hailan pouted and cried loudly, "I can't take it anymore, I really can't take it anymore, Brother Nanyi, please let me go, I can't do it anymore, I really can't do it anymore, I'm pregnant."
"So what if you're pregnant? I gave you the chance to be the best, but you're useless. What's the point of studying? Love is so beautiful, and sleeping with a man is so comfortable. Let's swear to each other that we'll never be apart. You take a bite , I take a bite, sweet and sweet."
"Stop talking, please stop talking, I was wrong, I was wrong... It's all my fault, I was really wrong."
Nan Yi stroked Xian Hailan's head and said quietly, "It's good that you know you were wrong, which means you can still be saved. I have asked someone to help you get a one-way permit to go to Xiangkeng and start over. Don't make stupid mistakes again."
"Wuwuwu, um?" Xian Hailan said with tears in her eyes, "You want me to go to Xiangkeng?"
"Yes, I went to Hong Kong, studied in Form 6, took the college entrance examination there, took the TOEFL, and went to study abroad."
"I, I, I...can I start ?"
"Haha, you're lucky to know me. You still have a chance to start over. Go to sleep, get yourself ready, and leave after the formalities are completed."
Nan Yi stroked Xian Hailan's head again, stood up and walked out of her room.
Outside in the main hall, Xian Yaorong, who was waiting anxiously, saw Nan Yi go out, so he stepped forward and asked, "Nan Yi, what happened?"
"Okay, let's forget about this. Uncle Yaorong, let me tell you something. After this incident, Hailan may not get married too soon. When the time comes, don't rush her. Wait until she figures it out herself."
"Hey, I'm glad you're okay, Nan Yi. I don't know how to thank you."
"Uncle Yaorong, don't say anything. I treat Hailan as my sister. How can I ignore her affairs? Well, it's still early, you guys go back to sleep."
After leaving Xian Yaorong's house, Nan Yi returned to his own home to pack up his things, reopened the mechanism that had been turned off, locked the door, and continued on his journey.
Woo woo woo, what's more; drip, drip, beep; thump, ...
After taking a train to Rehe, then a car and a tractor, Nan Yi and Zuo Can finally arrived in Yanshan Manchu Autonomous County, Hebei Province.
I didn’t know what festivals there were in Yanshan. As soon as I entered Yanshan County, I saw a team wearing traditional Manchu costumes dancing the yangge on stilts.
Nan Yi had heard of this called Cunzi Yangge, and he was quite curious, so he stood on the side of the road and watched for a while.
After the yangko dance team walked away, Nan Yi said to Zuo Can, "Let's go, let's find a guesthouse to stay in first."
