Volume 1: Settling Down the Tang Dynasty Chapter 163: Working is also fun

Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    The huge muddy land was now divided into two parts, with a sparkling pond on one side and a paddy field on the other.  There is already a thin layer of water in the paddy field, which looks like a huge glass mirror from a distance.  Paddy fields, ponds, willows, fruit trees, green hills, plus a few figures in the paddy fields, a wonderful pastoral landscape picture appears before your eyes.

    "Brother, you have to keep an eye on me to see if I'm wrong."

    Yaya bent over and slowly planted the seedlings one by one. Then, she did not forget to ask Li Feng to watch for her to prevent the planting from becoming crooked or not straight.  In addition, transplanting rice seedlings made her very curious and excited, so she was also very interested.  Every seedling planted is treated with great care.

    In fact, not only Yaya, but also Xiaohu, Rouniang, and even Li Feng are also very meticulous.  Rou Niang and the others won¡¯t talk about it. It¡¯s their first time to plant rice seedlings, so it¡¯s understandable how they feel.  Although Li Feng is no stranger to rice transplanting, this is his first work in the Tang Dynasty, so it is inevitable that he will be a little excited.

    "Yaya, you should ask your Brother Xiaohu to help you read it. I can't see it. I'm at the beginning."

    Li Feng felt a little embarrassed when he heard what Yaya said.  Since Rou Niang and the others were not familiar with rice transplanting and had no idea how wide the spacing between plants and rows should be, Li Feng could only do the initial work himself.  The next one was Rou Niang, then Yaya, and finally Xiaohu.

    "Brother Xiao Hu is stupid himself. Look, all the rice seedlings he planted are crooked and not straight at all. No, sister, I want to change places with you. You and big brother will help me watch. This way  It won¡¯t be crooked, okay?¡±

    Yaya took one look at the seedlings planted by Xiaohu and immediately shook her head.  Then, he changed places with Rou Niang and came between Li Feng and Rou Niang.

    "Haha, Yaya, actually there is no need to make it so straight. Even if it is a little crooked, it will be fine."

    Looking at this little girl who was taking things a little too seriously, Li Feng suddenly felt funny in his heart.  What are you afraid of if you are a little crooked? I didn¡¯t see the seedlings of later generations, just scattering them into the fields like goddesses scattering flowers.  There is no concept of rows and columns at all, and they still look good.

    "No, if it's not inserted straight, it won't look good. Look, it looks so straight now."

    After Li Feng finished speaking, Yaya immediately started shaking her head.  This little girl is still a perfectionist when it comes to feelings.  In this case, Li Feng was really speechless.

    "Yes, Brother Li, it's better to make it straighter so that some places are not too wide and some places are too crowded, which will definitely be bad for the crops. Although inserting them one by one like this is a bit time-consuming,  But it won¡¯t take long. As long as we get up early every day and go back later, ten days at most will be enough.¡±

    "By the way, Brother Li, if these seedlings are not planted at the same time, will it have any impact? I mean, will some be mature and some not yet mature by the time?"

    When it comes to crops, Rou Niang is never careless, and she also agrees with Yaya's statement.  But then, he raised his head and asked Li Feng.

    "Haha, okay, let's take it slow. Anyway, this seedling is not very old, so it doesn't matter a few days later. As for whether it's a few days earlier or a few days later, it won't have any big impact. After all, this seedling is here  The seedlings will grow on their own, so it won¡¯t have any impact on the maturity time.¡±

    Li Feng discovered that this lady was very sensitive to things related to her livelihood, and she could always think of very crucial points very easily.

    Transplanting rice seedlings is a very hard work.  Although it doesn't take much effort, it is very painful to keep bending like that.  As long as you bend your waist for too long, no matter whether you continue to bend, stand, or even lie down, you will experience bursts of swelling and pain, which is very uncomfortable.

    Therefore, after working for only a short time, Li Feng ordered a rest.  The meaning of labor now is different from before, or from the purpose of all people.  He doesn't have to think about collecting more grain, selling it, making money, building a house, reading to his children, or even paying off debts and other messy things.

    When labor is no longer stressful and has a strong purpose, labor becomes a very happy thing.

    Since this is the case, there is no need to work so hard.  Work for a while, rest for a while, work happily, and live happily. This is Li Feng's biggest wish.

    In the past, he didn¡¯t have that ability. No, it should be said that he didn¡¯t have the conditions to get the kind of life he wanted.  Anyone who wants such a life can actually do it.  This kind of ordinary life, just asking for food and clothing, is not good for the family at home.For him from the village, it was too simple.  As long as you quit your job and go home to farm your own land, that will be enough.

    But, he couldn¡¯t do it, it was too difficult.  Money is omnipotent. Countless people may be able to find 10,000 reasons to criticize this sentence.  However, Li Feng had to admit that in that era, money meant and represented too many things.

    When money can already represent the value of life and human dignity, there seems to be nothing wrong with saying that money is omnipotent.  Unless you can really ignore everything, you will not be able to escape the pressure that money brings to you.

    How difficult it is. A person may be able to ignore other people's eyes and not care what others say.  However, even if you don't care about others, can you ignore your loved ones?

    ¡°Come, Xiaohu, your sister and Yaya have a drink of water, and we¡¯ll have some wine.¡±

    Sitting on the already green grass, blowing the calm and cool spring breeze, looking at Rou Niang, Yaya, and Xiao Hu beside him, Li Feng felt bursts of satisfaction in his heart.  It has become Li Feng's habit to bring alcohol with him to work. Now he is an out-and-out super drunk, and he can be said to be happy without drinking.

    Seeing Yaya and Rou Niang sitting there, resting and drinking water, Li Feng took a bowl and poured two bowls of wine into it. The bowl in front of Xiaohu was only half a bowl, while his was a full bowl.

    "Haha, okay brother-in-law, let's have a drink"

    Li Feng¡¯s suggestion immediately brought a naive smile from Xiaohu.

    "You guys, how can you drink in the field while working? Be careful if you drink too much and fall into the field. Especially Xiaohu, you should drink less, you know?"

    Although Rou Niang had some complaints, the happy smile on her face completely betrayed her mood at the moment.

    ¡°Brother, look at our fields and pond from here, they are so beautiful.¡±

    "Little Yaya has long been accustomed to Li Feng and Xiaohu drinking.  At this time, the little guy's whole mind was attracted by the paddy fields and ponds at the foot of the mountain.  Her little face almost burst into laughter.

    "Haha, of course. If we wait until all the seedlings are planted, and then some time passes, it will look even better. At first glance, it is green, and when the breeze blows, there are waves of green. When the time comes, we will do it here again  A picnic would be even more perfect.¡±

    As he spoke, Li Feng himself looked intoxicated.

    "Okay, okay, but, big brother, what is a picnic? Why haven't Yaya heard of it?"

    Now Yaya, no matter what Li Feng says, she will support it with both hands.  In her heart, as long as it was made by Li Feng, it must be a good thing.  However, she really didn't know what a picnic was.
