When Lao Wangtou learned that the horse was gone, he felt his heart tighten and he almost didn't come up in one breath.

He went to check and found no trace of the horse.

People in the village said they had never seen it.

Everyone is busy rushing to collect, how can I have time to care about horses?

"This horse doesn't belong to our family!" This is what Lao Wang's head is most distressed about. If he loses someone else's horse, he must pay for it.

Someone asked: "How much is this horse? I think it runs very fast."

"At least thirty-five taels of silver!" When Lao Wangtou went to buy a donkey cart, he asked about the carriage.

An ordinary donkey is two taels of silver, and a better one is close to three taels.

The laws of Dachang state stipulate that ordinary people can buy ordinary horses, and ordinary horses are usually selected from war horses or old horses.

In case of war, the government can requisition free of charge.

That kind of inferior horse can be used on weekdays. If it goes to the battlefield, it will basically die, so being requisitioned is equivalent to giving it to the government.

I don't need it very much at home, so I generally don't buy it, and I don't think it's worth it.

Even if you can buy it, the price is unimaginable for ordinary people.

The quality of the horses that have wandered into villages and towns is definitely worse, but they are still much better than donkeys.

The worst is thirty-five taels of silver, and the slightly better ones are sixty-seven taels.

The horse from Qin Huai's family always felt better than the one on the market, and Lao Wang couldn't even imagine how much it would cost.

Hearing the price of the horse, the others also took a breath.

Greeting everyone to hurry to find the horse.

Compared to a horse with a few dozen taels of silver, it doesn't matter if the food in the field waits a little.

Can't let the old Wang family lose so much money?

At this time, the sky suddenly boomed.

Soon there was a loud noise.

It's thundering.

Old Wangtou's face changed: "Don't be busy, big guy, hurry up and collect the food!!"

Thunderstorms in summer come as soon as they say it, and it usually doesn't take long from thunder to rain.

The adults hurriedly knocked out the rice that had been cut in the field, and then picked up the ones that had been made.

The children panicked and began to harvest food.

As a result, I heard a burst of ooh ooh on the dam.

"My leg hurts so much!"

"God, I can't move, who will pull me!"

These children squatted for a long time, walking like ducks one by one.

Gotta get food quickly.

Simply painful and tormenting.

Lao Wang's family has a lot of food, but fortunately there are also many children.

In addition to the three brothers of the dog left, there are a total of 10 boys, as well as the silent and insignificant dumplings, a group of people gathered all the food in a short while.

It was then covered with a layer of tarpaulin, covered with straw, and surrounded by stones.

The food is ready.

They didn't sit still after collecting it, and hurried to help other people collect it.

Xiao Ayu was waving her arms and legs, and was also helping to collect food.

In her hand, she had a small dustpan that Lao Wangtou made for him.

Then when pouring to the middle, put the grain out.

Everyone was busy, and no one noticed Xiao Ayu's movements at all.

"Hey, today's collection is so fast!" Some people were amazed.

"We are harvesting food every day, isn't this just practiced?"

The busy farming season will last for more than half a month. Some early households have started harvesting food a few days ago. These children are harvesting and drying food every day, and they move quickly.

"Snapped--"

Suddenly, there was the sound of water dripping on the ground.

"Crack, snap—"

The sound was getting louder and louder.

It was as if someone was beating a drum, coming from far and near.

Water "copper coins" also began to appear on the ground, exploding round flowers.

Wang Dalang's complexion changed: "Hurry up and fast, the rain is coming!"

In the end, there was one family left, and everyone went to help.

As soon as the cloth was covered, the sound of dense rain came in front of him.

"Wow—"

"Wow!!!"

A rain flower was smashed on Xiao Ayu's forehead, she was stunned, she touched it with her hand, and it was wet.

Tang Yuan hurriedly opened his sleeves to block the rain for Xiao Ayu, but where could he stop him?

"Sister Ayu, come here quickly." Wang Wulang took off his single jacket and put it on Xiao Ayu's head to help her cover the rain.

Wang Dalang hid all the tools for harvesting food in the tarpaulin, and turned to greet his younger brothers to go home quickly.

My clothes got wet, but I didn't have to change them.

If it wasn't for helping others, they should go home after harvesting their food, and they wouldn't be caught in the rain.

"Run!" After Wang Saburo shouted, he hurried forward.

The muddy road that had been raining became very slippery, Wang Saburo slipped a long way and fell into the soil with a snap.

The others laughed when they saw it.

As a result, after a while, several fell on the path, and all of them became clay dolls.

They didn't run away at all, and fought a mud battle directly in the ground.

Xiao Ayu saw it and was eager to try it.

Wang Dalang carried Xiao Ayu on his back and felt that Xiao Ayu was struggling, so he said, "Ayu don't come down, let's go home first."

Little Ayu: "Big brother, I want to play too, I want to play too!"

This is so much fun!

She was wearing Wang Wulang's clothes on her head, and when she looked out from under the clothes, she saw several brothers in front of her, rolling in the mud and having fun.

Wang Wulang also wanted to play, but when he saw Xiao Ayu, he also wanted to go, and when he thought of the picture of Xiao Ayu covered in mud, it turned into the face of Ama's King of Hell.

Suddenly shivered.

Tangyuan reminded in a low voice, "There is a lotus pod over there."

Wang Wulang turned his head and saw a lotus pond not far away.

"Sister Ayu, let's go pick lotus seeds!"

Anyway, the clothes are wet, and it's not bad at all.

Compared to playing with mud, Xiao Ayu is more curious about lotus pods.

Wang Dalang glared at Wang Wulang, he didn't know how to coax his sister home and still pick her here!

Go back and pick you up.

Wang Wulang stuck his tongue out at his elder brother, made a face, turned his head and ran towards the lotus pond.

There are two large lotus ponds in Hujia Village, which were planted by Mrs. Hu. He likes to walk around the lotus ponds. When he is in the mood, he will bring his pen and ink to the lotus ponds to paint.

On weekdays, he just does not allow everyone to pick lotus flowers, but lotus leaves are optional.

When the children want to cook lotus leaf rice, they will pick two flowers.

Now, there are still many lotus pods in the lotus pond, and the surrounding ones are basically taken off, and the others are gathered in the middle.

Wang Wulang rolled up his trouser legs and went down to the lotus pond, picking up a big handful.

When the other children saw it, they stopped playing in the mud and went to the lotus pond to pick lotus pods.

The weather is just right to eat lotus pods, the lotus seeds are tender and tender, and even the lotus seeds inside are not too bitter.

If you wait a little longer, the lotus seeds will become hard, and the taste will be much worse.

This is the first time Xiao Ayu has eaten the lotus pod. The soft lotus pod is peeled off, and the little guys with round chirps jump into the palm of his hand.

Then peel off the skin of the lotus seeds, take out the lotus seeds inside, and eat the remaining lotus seeds into the mouth.

A fragrant fragrance bloomed on the tip of the tongue.

Xiao Ayu's eyes were round again: "Sweet, delicious!"

Everyone got lotus pods in their hands, except Wang Dalang, who was carrying Xiao Ayu.

Xiao Ayu held her little hand forward and stretched it out to Wang Dalang: "Big brother, do you want to eat?"

Wang Dalang originally wanted to bring these babies back quickly. The thunderstorm came and went quickly, and now it just stopped.

Hearing Xiao Ayu's soft and glutinous voice, Wang Dalang said to himself again.

Forget it, sister Ayu rarely comes home now, so let her play more.

There is no such lotus pond in town for her to play.
