Chapter 339 Presumptuous
When Xuan Shen came with more than 300 young people.
The people in the field felt full of strength and unconsciously sped up.
Sanwang also came with more than 20 people from Lishu Village.
Li Lanzhen didn't expect that Dunzi and Maisui would also come.
"Why are you two here too? You can just stay in Lishu Village. Dunzi, your legs aren't very convenient, so why do you have to be so stubborn?"
Dunzi knew that Li Lanzhen cared about him, so he smiled innocently.
"Aunt, I have plenty of strength, I just need to cut the wheat, it won't be a problem!"
After saying that, two men went into the field carrying sickles.
More than an hour later, dark clouds rolled in the sky, obscuring the moon and the light.
All that was left on the ground were the flickering fire and the shadowy figures of people.
The black figures and various movements were like a shadow play between the canopy.
But at this moment, no one had the mood to appreciate it, and everyone quickened their movements.
The children were picking up wheat ears. It was dark and they couldn't see anything. Some of them were dozing off and falling down in a daze. They got up quickly and continued working.
Li Lanzhen looked up at the sky and estimated that a strong wind would come soon, but she wondered if it would be mixed with rain.
She hurriedly called out to Li Erhan and Ye who were busy cutting wheat.
"Mom and Dad, you can't do this anymore. You won't be able to get up tomorrow, and it will hurt your bodies and cause more trouble.
Now take the children and walk quickly. Look at the little ones, they almost fell asleep while walking."
Li Erhan and Ye looked at the children, who were staggering around with wheat in their hands.
Douhua was walking and then he suddenly knelt on the ground with his eyes closed, probably falling asleep.
Both of them felt sorry for the child, and their bodies were indeed tired, with backaches and waists.
How could I not be tired? After working all day, I took a short break after eating and then went back to work.
Moreover, the labor intensity during working in the fields at night is very high and the speed is fast. It would be strange if you are not tired from chasing me!
Li Lanzhen called Liu Zhaodi to search the wheat fields for the children.
He carried the child into the carriage and handed it to Li Erhan, who drove the carriage, took Ye and Aunt Guihua to the village.
got windy!
Everyone is working faster!
The people who tie the wheat bundles and carry the wheat to the barn wish they could step on Hot Wheels.
They were quick-eyed and quick-handed. They would immediately pick up the harvested wheat wherever they saw it, tie it into two large bundles, and carry it away on shoulder poles.
I was afraid that if I was a little slow, a strong wind or rain would come and destroy the wheat.
Despite this, there were still more than ten acres of land left.
The strong wind mixed with raindrops as big as beans hit the faces and bodies of the people who were working hard in the wheat fields.
They have no idea of caring for these people who have worked hard day and night!
The strong wind brought raindrops, hitting people's faces, making it impossible to open their eyes.
Han Shunde shouted loudly, "Let's work harder and take back all these ten acres of land!"
Zhang Deshui added quickly, "Those who deliver the wheat bundles, please don't deliver these bundles that have been soaked in the rain to the barn!
All of them are delivered and placed in the dining room."
Li Lanzhen knew that the wheat had been wetted by the rain and would become damp if placed in the barn, so it would be better to place it in the dining room.
Li Lanzhen's hands were not cut, and her body was made to drink spiritual spring water for a year and she also took powerful pills.
I can’t stand it at this time, my back and waist are sore, let alone others.
At this time, people's hands were working quickly, each doing their own work, but their mouths were not idle either.
"What can we do? We have more than ten acres of wheat, but unfortunately, all of it will sprout and become sprouted wheat!"
"That's right, what a pity!"
Li Lanzhen's hands moved quickly and her brain was working rapidly.
After being soaked by the rain, the wheat was too large to be dried.
I simply cut off all the wheat ears and made some malt syrup for the children, which made both adults and children feel sweet.
Or you can add dried fruits to the syrup to make dried fruit candy.
Thinking of this, she moved even faster.
Strong winds and heavy rains made it more difficult for people to harvest wheat.
The rain blurred people's eyes, making it impossible to see the wheat clearly.
He harvested quickly relying entirely on muscle memory and his years of experience in harvesting wheat.
In less than an hour, the wheat was completely harvested and delivered to the dining room.
"Everyone, hurry up and go home, take a hot bath, change into dry clothes, and don't catch a cold!"
Han Shunde shouted loudly to people over and over again.
No matter whether they are their own children or not, as long as adults see the children, they will carry them on their backs, hold them in their arms, or hold them under their elbows and run towards home!
Li Lanzhen and people from the village committee came to the dining room.
The harvested wheat could not fit in the dining room, so it was placed in part of the kitchen.
The wall under the shed outside the dining room was also filled with stuff.
Everyone wiped the rain off their faces and checked the wheat.
Zhang Deshui plucked down an ear of wheat.
He crushed it with his hands and put it into his mouth. He chewed it, shook his head and frowned.
"It's all wet, and the temperature is high. If we keep it here overnight, it will definitely sprout."
Seeing everyone's distressed look, Li Lanzhen said, "Let it sprout.
I want to use the sprouted wheat to make malt sugar, and add roasted dried fruits to make a batch of malt sugar.
Give adults and children a sweet taste and let them feel the sweetness of life. "
Everyone tacitly agreed in their hearts, but unexpectedly, another person jumped out.
He is the Ministry of Revenue official who is in his 30s.
He frowned, looked at Li Lanzhen with angry eyes, and shouted at her harshly.
"How can you do this? You are such a woman!
Do you know how many people in our Dali Dynasty were hungry and how many people starved to death?
The soldiers at the border were hungry and had to eat grass to fill their stomachs.
You are wasting food. You will be beheaded for this behavior!"
The others were frightened by his words, but Li Lanzhen was not afraid of him at all.
She raised her head and looked at him with calm eyes.
Just as I was about to say: It’s none of your business! My paradise, my food, I can do whatever I want with it!
If you have the ability to open up wasteland and farm the land yourself, and you are great and have the world in your heart, then just go and grow food yourself!
Before she could speak, a childish but majestic voice came from behind her.
"Presumptuous! Kneel down!"
People turned their heads to look at the door.
It turned out that it was the prince. He was soaking wet and the rain was still dripping down his face.
Following behind was Su Beisheng, who looked like a drowned rat.
Behind them stood Xuan Shen and his three secret guards.
All the people had gloomy faces and stared at the official from the Ministry of Revenue of the imperial court with gloomy eyes.
After hearing the prince's shout, this guy seemed to suddenly wake up.
His knees bent unconsciously, and he fell to his knees, crawling on the ground and knocking his forehead against the ground.
"The Crown Prince is asking for forgiveness. I am anxious for the moment and for the sake of the court, but this woman is really..."
He didn't finish his words before there was a plop.
All the members of the village committee knelt on the ground.
They didn't expect that this young man who had lived with them for more than half a year was actually the crown prince!
The moment he knelt down and bowed his head, he hurriedly wondered whether he had offended the prince.
