Su Binglan listened and looked up at the sky.
it seemed a bit dry indeed, he did not realize that the village had not rained for months.
In the backward era of ancient times, productivity was low, and everyone depended on heaven for food.
When the weather is good, you can produce more crops and grains.
But in the dry year, the villagers are not only more tired than in previous years, but the plants can also dry up.
All villagers rely on the autumn food harvest to make ends meet for a year.
They were busy with work from early spring to autumn, waiting for the harvest of food.
It's not easy.
So you can imagine how important food is for everyone.
Su Binglan's neighbor, Aunt Yang, also sighed.
Su Binglan looked at the field next to her. All crops are not neat, and grain grain is not great.
Ground's cracked.
Although the villagers were very diligent, they often went to distant rivers to fetch water to irrigate the land, but it was useless.
The weather is so dry that the water evaporates very quickly.
"If it doesn't rain, how is it today?"
"No, plants will die, and a year of busy work will be wasted."
"If you don't harvest crops, what will you do next year?"
"Yes, don't starve to death."
"There's no way to get a job in town."
"It's not that easy. It was not that no one had gone to the city to look for a job before, and they were unable to earn some coins after working hard."
"And if you go to work in another mansion, you won't be able to go home at all, maybe you will die of exhaustion. Not so with the Su family, Su Wenzhe."
Seeing the villagers like this, Su Binglan thought.
When Aunt Yang was walking back from the fields, she happened to see Su Binglan, and she immediately smiled and said, "Is Binglan going to help in the fields?"
Aunt Yang saw that she was carrying a backpack and thought she was helping out in the fields.
Su Binglan smiled and said, "Aunt Yang, I went to the back mountain to see him."
"Oh, why are you going to the back mountain again, it's very dangerous, and there are beasts, you should pay attention."
The villagers did not dare to go deep into the back mountain, they were all busy at the foot of the back mountain.
Since there were ferocious beasts and wolves in the back mountain, the villagers used to go to the back mountain, but after being bitten by prey by accident, everyone stopped going to the back mountain.
There is too much danger in the back mountain, and you cannot go back if you accidentally drop something while walking.
Aunt Yang's face changed when she mentioned Houshan, especially since Su Binglan had almost lost her life when she went to Houshan earlier.
Su Binglan said: "Thank you Aunt Yang, I will pay attention."
"Auntie Yang knows that you are a good boy, and he has gone to the city to set up a stall to sell things today, and he is also paying attention to his body."
The kindly Madam. As Su Binglan's neighbor, she often helped Su Binglan, and she also sent some delicious food for him.
All this Su Binglan remembered.
"Aunt Yang, what are you doing in the fields?"
Speaking of this, Madam Yang sighed and said, "We ordinary people rely on the sky to eat, and live better when the weather is good. There's really no way to do this."
After Yang left, Shen Qiuhua and the others followed, "Lan Lan, why are you standing here?"
Su Binglan walked over quickly and said to go home to cook first, but after they came out, they saw Su Binglan still standing here.
Su Binglan looked up at the sky and said, "Mother, is it raining, everyone's life will be better."
Shen Qiuhua said: "If it rains, everyone can relax and feel good."
Liu Yinyin also nodded and said, "It's okay for our family to hire people to work. Villagers had to take water from afar every day and water the soil repeatedly, but the water in the river was almost depleted."
