Traveling into the novel and discovering that the whole family is a big boss

17-18

  Chapter 17
  After another two days, almost all the grain in the fields was harvested, and the team began to be busy planting land and drying grain. During the day, the entire brigade will be busy farming together, and at night people will be arranged to keep watch outside.

  Because the weather has been very good these days, and the weather is sunny, so the team plans to take advantage of these days to quickly dry out all the food. The purpose of keeping vigil is to save trouble and time. Let the people in the team guard the grain in the drying field at night, so that everyone does not have to pull the grain out during the day and collect the grain into the team's granary at night.

  This is also a characteristic of the countryside in this era. Almost every year when farming is busy, people will take turns to keep vigil at the grain drying farm at night. Sometimes, even if there is no need to keep vigil to look after the food, during the hotter days every summer, people will drag their families to sleep outside at night.

  There were quite a lot of people in their brigade. For the sake of fairness, during the first vigil, the brigade captain specially used a drawing method, and then they were arranged according to the surrounding neighbors. The Jiang family was not very lucky. They were assigned the next day, and two people were required to keep watch at night.

  Nowadays, everyone has to go to work during the day, and it would be unbearable to hold vigils at night. After all, it was uneasy to sleep outside at night, and there were so many mosquitoes at night in summer that it was almost impossible to sleep outside. Neither the first nor second bedroom wanted to go, so they had to choose people from the third bedroom.

  However, there is only one woman in the third bedroom now, and if two people are chosen, the child will be born. Although there are three children in the three bedrooms, there are actually only two people who can actually work. Five-year-old Jiang Yan is not even half of them now.

  And if you really only have three bedrooms, it won't look good in the eyes of outsiders. Everyone would think that the Jiang family bullied the third-bedroom family members, so they created Xu Jingqiu, a third-bedroom family member, and Jiang Jinwen, a fourth-bedroom family member.

  Jiang Jinwen is now planning to go back to school and hang around a group of educated youths every day. If he hadn't been so busy these days, he probably wouldn't even have wanted to go to work. But even if he went to work, he would only go to work for half a day. In the afternoon, he would ask educated youth to help him review.

  When he heard that his family had arranged for Xu Jingqiu to stay vigil, Jiang Huaicheng didn't want Xu Jingqiu to work too hard, so he ran to find his grandparents who wanted Xu Jingqiu to stay vigil that day so that he didn't have to follow everyone to work during the day.

  Of course grandma was not willing to hear this, after all, the double robbery was not over yet. If Xu Jingqiu didn't work for a day, she would lose a day's work points. Originally, the third wife had to rely on other people to support her, so the old couple wouldn't want her to take a break at this time.

  What's more, now that Jiang Laosan is gone, Xu Jingqiu doesn't have to continue having children. She is a waste to the Jiang family. It would be nice if they could keep her forever, but now it's impossible to let her rest during the double grab.

  Because of this matter, Jiang Huaicheng, who had always been good-tempered, had an argument with his grandparents for the first time. Jiang Huaicheng knew that such quarrels were useless, but he still wanted to take the opportunity to quarrel. After quarreling too much, he would have an excuse to propose a separation.

  After Jiang Huaicheng had a fight with his grandparents, he left the house alone with his books in his arms. If you quarrel, you have to quarrel not only for the Jiang family, but also for other people in the village.

  After the quarrel, he went to find his classmates from the same village and told them about the incident. The other party is similar in age to Jiang Huaicheng, and they are classmates in the same village. People of the same age are more likely to favor others of the same age.

  So when the other party heard Jiang Huaicheng's words, he couldn't help but frown and said: "This matter is indeed your grandma's fault. Even if you are partial, you can't be so partial. I said before that your brother-in-law doesn't go to work every day. Even a grown man doesn't know what he does all day long. Now that he's been robbed, it's only the first half of the day's work. It's not like your mother who has to work so hard and has to keep vigil."

  Just as Jiang Huaicheng was complaining to his classmates, Jiang Yan on the other side also I found out about the vigil. This time Jiang Yan did not ignore the fuss, but after hearing the news, he made plans to accompany Xu Jingqiu to a vigil tomorrow night.

  According to Jiang Yan's recent careful observation, he found that Xu Dacang has not given up yet. If Xu Jingqiu goes to watch outside tomorrow night, the other party will definitely come over and harass his mother. In order to prevent the other party from doing something and being accidentally discovered by people in the village, Jiang Yan felt that it would be safer to go with him. And this Xu Dacang must be solved, maybe... tomorrow night will be a good opportunity.

  The next night.

  Jiang Yan shamelessly cried and said that he couldn't live without his mother, and then went out to watch the night with Xu Jingqiu as he wished.

  The grain drying ground of their brigade is at the northernmost part of the village, and next to it is the granary where the village's grain is stored. There are always two warehouse managers here on weekdays, who not only guard the food here but also manage the team's farm tools.

  When Xu Jingqiu brought Jiang Yan over, people from the other two families had already arrived. Everyone gathered the grain into a pile and covered it with plastic film to prevent the grain from getting wet due to the tide at night.

  By the time everyone was done with these things, it was almost eight or nine o'clock in the evening. At this time, there was no electricity in the countryside, so we usually had to rest after dark.

  Jiang Yan sat on the small wooden stool and couldn't help but yawned loudly. Then he stood up and looked at Xu Jingqiu. Seeing that Xu Jingqiu was talking to someone else, he dragged the broken straw mat at home to the roadside and lay down.

  But before he could close his eyes and fall asleep, his face and wrists were bitten by mosquitoes. Jiang Yan closed his eyes and let out an ouch. He sat up from the mat angrily and reached out to scratch his face hard. His face is white, fat, and round. After being bitten by a mosquito, if he reaches out and scratches it casually, it will leave a few red marks.

  Probably hearing the commotion here, neighbor Aunt Xu took out a flashlight and shined it on Jiang Yan's face. After seeing the scratches on Jiang Yan's face, he quickly called Xu Jingqiu who was not far away to come over.
