Chapter 1485 Dawn

It was lightly dawn, and Aluo had already gotten up, so she went to the well to fetch water first.

In the early morning, there were many women who got up early to carry water like her on the well in the middle of the village. Everyone greeted him casually, then took the bucket to carry water in the well, and they would also communicate some gossip while carrying water.

After filling both large wooden barrels with water, Aluo carried the water home, carrying a load of more than 100 kilograms of water on her shoulders, but she didn't struggle.

He carried four loads of water at home in one breath, two loads of water from the kitchen tank, then carried one load into the cafeteria shed, poured one load into the water tank at the entrance of the yard, and carried more than twenty buckets of water from the well in succession, and carried four loads of water. He couldn't help but feel a little sweaty.

She didn't bother to rest, so she put down the empty bucket and quickly poured a bucket of water into the sink of the cow in the shed. This was the ox at home, and she was pregnant with a calf and would give birth in no time. She added a new calf to the family. After more than a year of raising it, the calf will be worth a lot of money.

Aluo also reached out to help the cow scratch itch, and pulled off a few cow ticks that had been sucking blood all night and were full of belly. He pulled off his head and threw it on the ground to wipe the soles of his shoes, which made a dark red color on the ground.

"Eat grass well." Aluo's voice was a little stuttering. She was a Baekje woman, and her husband was a Han immigrant from the Central Plains. When her husband came, he brought three young children. Because his wife died of illness a few years ago, after he arrived here, the government served as a matchmaker and immediately arranged for him a Baekje woman's marriage.

Before getting married, Aluo had never met her husband. She just followed the arrangements of the official media. Her husband gave her a pair of wild geese and then a few pieces of cloth and some rice flour. Even if she officially married her, she would start.

Fortunately, although Aluo's husband had three children, he was still young and strong, and worked very hard and diligently. The yamen distributed a lot of land to their family, and even the newly married Aluo was assigned ten acres of Yongye land, and the family had 200 acres of land. This was something that the husband couldn't believe in his hometown in Zhongyuan.

Although there are mountainous forest land, not all cultivated land, there are fifty acres of Yongye fields in the 200 acres. Not to mention, the government rented cattle, farm tools, seeds, etc. for free at the beginning, and asked everyone to help each other, and they built a village, built a canal, and dug wells and walls.

Several years later, Aluo and her husband also gave birth to three children, and their family life became more and more prosperous. Now there is one of their own ox at home and two horses. One is a ploughed cart. Plowing dry land horses are better than ox, and horses can also pull carts. The other horse is her husband's mount. Because her husband is young and strong, he joined the militia and is a spearman. Every year during the slack training camp, her husband will ride on the horse and go out.

My husband likes that horse very much. Even if he doesn't use it normally, he still requires the snail to keep the ingredients of bean cakes and even feeds a handful of night grass every night.

When feeding the horse water, I found that the handful of grass I gave at night had already eaten up, and the horse stood there and took a nap.

Come out of the ring, the snail starts to boil water.

Today is not a day of rest, so the children at home have to eat early in the morning to go to school.

There are six children in the family, and the husband brings two sons and one daughter. She has two sons and one daughter with her husband, which makes the family have six children, especially four of whom. This makes the husband always feel proud and feels straight when he goes out.

The oldest child is twelve years old. He finished junior high school. Because of his good grades, he went to junior high school again. This year is the last year of junior high school. His grades are good. His husband valued him very much and said that he would be allowed to go to the county official school to study. If he can study in the county, he will have a great opportunity to take the imperial examination and pass the imperial examination. If he can pass the imperial examination, he can at least be a minor official in the county and township in the future.

Add water to the pot and set fire in the stove.

The chicken coop was opened, and the nest of chickens was driven out to find food. I reached out and took out five eggs from the nest. Recently, during the egg laying period, four or five eggs were picked up every day.

When Dalang was growing up, it was the last year of junior high school. It was a lot of energy-consuming study. Her husband told him to cook two eggs for Dalang every day.

After putting the newly picked eggs, she picked out the eggs that had been stored for the longest time, and she took out six of them.

There are five men in the family, and she hopes to make up for them.

The eldest son ate two, and the husband and the other three sons each.

As for her and her two daughters, neither she gave birth to her own or her ex-wife.

The daughters had no eggs to eat or read books.

Although the husband loves his daughter, he always says that his daughter will always get married in the future and will become a person from other people's family. Even the husband's surname must be added before his surname.

Most of the men in the village think this way, and even women who are both women are the same.

The two daughters envied their brothers and younger brothers for their ability to study, but they could only teach them a little what they learned in school when they were free. They were very smart and could learn to read and write their own names and do simple addition and subtraction arithmetic. But even so, they still had no chance to enter the school.

When the eggs are cooked, the family’s breakfast porridge is also cooked.

The porridge made of white rice was added with vegetables, and a little salt and lard, so the porridge was filled with an extremely pleasant smell.

The chimneys on the roof of the kitchen of every household were wafting smoke, and the sky finally dawned.

The small village that had been quiet all night also began to become noisy.

My husband walked into the yard with a hoe. He got up very early. After getting up, he carried the hoe and walked around the ground to release water to the rice fields that had just been planted at home to check for the gaps and fill in the leaks.

"I caught some crabs and a few fish."

My husband handed him a willow branch, which was strung with fish of different sizes and species, and also strung seven or eight crabs with straw.

"Is there another crab on the field tree?" Asuo hurriedly stepped forward to take it.

The husband nodded, walked to the water tank and picked up the gourd ladle and scooped up a scoop of water, and began to rub his face.

"These damn crabs can't be caught. They made holes everywhere. There were many holes in the ridges without going to the field for a few days, and the water in the rice fields was leaking." The husband complained. Some of their 200 acres of land planted mulberry and some of them had to grow hemp, and some had to grow cotton. The remaining ones planted grain, dry millet and rice, and the fields with poor land would take some wheat.

"I'll steam the crabs, kill these fish and fry them, and then prepare some wine for you." Aluo said to her husband.

"The fish should be stewed in soup. There is not much fish, and everyone can eat some of the soup after stewing it." After the husband said, he wiped his face, poured out the water, and walked into the house. "The few little bastards have not yet gotten up, and they don't know how to help with some housework."

"It's still early, let them sleep more, especially Dalang, who worked so late at night. The child was the time to grow up." Aluodao. Although Dalang was not given to her, the child was still polite to her, and she was very polite to her. She was also very satisfied with the three children she gave birth to.

While speaking, the village chief entered the yard with his hands behind his back.

"Ayuan, clean up and gather at the village entrance after dinner. The county magistrate Zhang had sent someone to pass on the message, saying that all militias would rush to the county to gather and report before tomorrow."

The man was stunned for a moment.

"Uncle Wang, this rice has just been planted not long ago. It is still the busy farming season. Why do the county gather militias at this time?"

The gray-haired village elder Wang looked at the fish, shrimps and crabs, and smiled, "I heard that it seems that I am going to send troops to Silla. In short, there is a task. Ayuan, I have caught so many fish, shrimps and crabs. It looks quite fresh and it's just right to drink."

"Uncle, I asked my woman to steam the crabs and fry the fish and shrimps. Let's have a drink."
