048. Discover the plague, the locust
Ma Dalan held Sun Simiao's hand and greeted the people who were working on the ground along the way.
This is quite popular.
"Grandma, where are you going?"
Sun Simiao has read out the memories that he once forgot to the corner these days, but has slowly adapted to the pace of life here.
Ma Dalan pointed to the big tree not far away and said:
"Go to discuss with you, Uncle Sihai, and organize the children to patrol!"
There are still many tasks in the fields that are grouting wheat, and they are all earning work points according to the workload. This patrol is so idle, how can it occupy labor? It is the most suitable for children.
Moreover, these half-aged children can earn a few job points, and parents are happy to cooperate with this kind of work.
Sun Simiao sighed, she was really comfortable.
Although I suffered a lot in my previous life, I was better than those who grew up in the mud.
"Grandma, why do you have to patrol? Isn't the wheat not ripe yet?"
Those who steal wheat should not steal this time.
Ma Dalan patted her granddaughter's head, always liked her thick black hair, and it looked festive.
"It's not only because I'm afraid that someone will think about wheat, but also the hungry sparrows, pheasants, hares and so on."
When Sun Simiao talks about this, he will understand.
I suddenly remembered something.
He couldn't help but say worriedly:
"Grandma, when I was catching grasshoppers with Xiao Si, I saw a lot of grasshopper eggs when I was pumping thatch roots on the edge of the ditch. Did the sparrows come this year to eat grasshoppers?"
In fact, Baoyu also reminded Sun Simiao to reveal the news.
But she is too lazy now. If she hadn't exchanged several more months of life for the merit, she would have been too lazy to care about this matter.
After all, she was still a little brat at this time. How could she explain that she knew about the insect disaster this year?
This is just sent away the grain evaluator. This year's wheat yield is estimated to be more than 300 kilograms per mu.
Whoever does not wait for a bumper harvest can share more food.
Ma Dalan frowned and asked anxiously:
"Really? You read that right?"
Sun Simiao nodded and said:
"My mother, I'm not sure. Why don't we go to the ditch and take a look, you'll know!"
If Ma Dalan said that someone would definitely pay attention to this matter, Sun Simiao ignored Baoyu's jumping foot in the space and said that she was irresponsible, had no kindness, etc.
Anyway, she can do what she can do, and she can do whatever she wants.
Ma Dalan didn't doubt his granddaughter's words, and this granddaughter has always been his lucky star, and he shouldn't be wrong this time.
The two grandparents and grandchildren used branches to pull them in the wet areas of the grass on the edge of the ditch. They really found a lot of grasshopper eggs. They went to the ground to flip through them, but they even found a lot of grasshopper eggs.
The rows of grasshopper eggs, which were as dense as wheat grains, really made Ma Dalan’s scalp numb.
Wrapped a few pieces of soil with leaves and took Sun Simiao to the village chief’s house in a hurry.
Sun Shenquan had just stopped the tobacco pipe and was about to go downstairs to see the wheat, but was tripped by Ma Dalan who rushed in.
"I said sister-in-law, are you doing? What's the matter in a hurry?"
Sun Shenquan was almost hit and hurriedly took two steps back and saw clearly that the person came asked.
Ma Dalan handed Sun Shenquan the soil and rubble in the leaves, and then said:
"Look at this!"
Sun Shenquan glanced at the grim and asked Ma Dalan in confusion:
"Sister-in-law, aren't it just a few pieces of muddy, what's the best thing to look at?"
This Ma Dalan is idle.
Ma Dalan was too lazy to say that Sun Shen had bad eyes and threw Tu Kezi in front of a few little hens, and a few little hens happily used as woodpeckers in Tu Kezi.
When he saw the little hen digging out all the grasshopper eggs from the soil trash, Sun Shenquan still didn't understand Ma Dalan's purpose.
In desperation, Ma Dalan had to say directly:
"This is a piece I dug in the wheat field, some of them on the edge of the ditch, some of them on the ground."
At this time, Sun Shenquan squatted on the ground and drove the little hen away, took a closer look and said:
"Is this a grasshopper egg?"
It seems that I haven't been blind yet, so I see what it is.
Ma Dalan nodded and said:
"Do you still remember that insect plague in five years?"
After reminding this, Sun Shenquan was shocked.
It’s okay if you don’t remind me, but who can’t remember it when reminding me?
Anyone who has given birth to a child still has some memory of the insect scourge, not to mention the group of grandparents.
It's even more memorable.
Back then, the locusts were everywhere, but nothing was left of anything green. Even those who went to the fields to rescue crops were gnawed and bleeding.
That's really scary.
Back then, they still remembered that when they went to work, they dug similar insect eggs in the field, but the older generation persuaded them not to believe it. In fact, even if they believed it, there was no way.
Sitting on the ground, even Sun Shenquan's son and daughter-in-law were shocked.
These all came to help the old man up.
Sun Shenquan didn't care. After awakening, he got up and grabbed Ma Dalan's arm and asked:
"Sister-in-law, sister-in-law, what's wrong with this? It's only a month since the wheat is about to be filled, and the insect eggs can grow up. It's time to harvest the wheat at that time!"
In fact, this is fast. I can’t harvest the wheat in just a month. I should have just finished filling the pulp and it’s still fresh and tender, so I can’t harvest it at all.
Sun Shenquan's son and daughter-in-law didn't understand what was wrong with him. Why did he look so scared that he looked at Ma Dalan in confusion.
"I'm here to discuss this with you. At this time, you first check with the captains of the production team. Is this thing available in all the fields in our village, and then report it to the town and county. If possible, let the township find a way to report it. If there are many instructors above, I will also send some to give us some guidance."
Ma Dalan is actually selfish. As soon as she arrived, instructor Liu Yuhong was disgusted with her before she started her work. If she dared to come to her house to mess with her daughter-in-law, then she would be better off with the gift she gave her.
It was also this Liu Yuhong who was unlucky, so who told her not to do practical things?
Sun Shenquan touched his pipe and nodded as if he had found the backbone.
It can be seen how scared it is.
"Sister-in-law, I'm going to have a meeting. Do you want to go and listen together?"
At the critical moment, my sister-in-law was able to suppress the situation. Sun Shenquan had to admit that he was not as good as the Hong Niang, who could go to the battlefield to kill the Japanese.
Ma Dalan held Sun Simiao's little hand and walked out, waved her hands repeatedly and said:
"No, this is the matter of you cadres. I won't participate. Besides, I have to go to Sihai to discuss the patrol matter."
This matter is obviously a matter of becoming more and more annoying as she looks at it. She has to discuss it with Sihai how to get more food.
That good grain can be harvested well, who won’t be upset?
