Chapter 572: Harvesting Soybeans

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Everyone in the family knew that he couldn’t make that much furniture in a short time, so they let him take his time. He could make as much as he could. If he didn’t have enough wood in the future, he could go to town and buy it directly.

Since they were not making ice anymore, Li Hehua naturally would not let Jiang Yue and Xue Yan cook. Even if Jiang Yue’s cooking was delicious, Li Hehua was afraid of tiring Jiang Yue, so she took on the work of making three meals a day.

Yu Hongyan was about to give birth and her stomach was so big that it was uncomfortable to sit, lie down, and stand. She hoped for the early birth of the child every day.

Xue Dafu now had more time to visit his big house. It had been a month since the house was built, half of the structure was ready.

There was still a lot of rice noodles in stock. Previously, when making ice, Liu Guixia and Li Hehua would go to the workshop every two or three days to make rice noodles for a day.

Now that they had the rice mill, their efficiency was greatly improved. The rice noodles they made in a day could be sold at the stall for several days.

Therefore, after a long time, they still had a lot of stock left in their inventory. This number was enough for the stall to sell for four or five days. It was fine if they did not do it today because they could go to the workshop to make the rice noodles a few days after.

It was time to harvest the soybeans at home today. They were already old, and other families had already harvested the soybeans.

The sorghum at home had already been harvested from the field. At that time, the family was still making ice and had no time to maage the harvest. The sorghum couldn’t be dragged, and it was easy for it to rot, so they hired someone to harvest it for the family.

When Jiang Yue saw that the other families were still harvesting soybeans, she suggested that her family hire people to harvest them. However, Xue Dafu and the others said that the ice would stop its production in a few days. The soybeans could last a few more days. Therefore, they didn’t hire anyone. Now, they had no choice but to harvest the soybeans.

The soybean plants did not even have many green leaves.

Today, Jiang Yue was led by Xue Yan to harvest the one acre of soybeans with Xue Dafu.

Jiang Yue was the first to change the seeds of the soybeans. The pods were fat, and one could tell that there were several round beans inside without peeling them.

Xue Dafu hadn’t been to the field for two months because he had been making ice. When he saw the situation, he immediately laughed. “This year’s soybean harvest turned out perfectly. Our family has been growing soybeans for so many years, and this year’s harvest is the best.”

Then, he bent down and began to harvest the crops.

He cut the soybean plants from the roots and put them aside. Finally, he tied them into bundles and brought them back to dry. After a certain degree of drying, the beans in the pods would burst out.

They could also use tools such as flails to make it easier to get the beans out of the bean pods.

Jiang Yue and Xue Yan looked at each other before they got off the bed and started to cut the crops with their sickles.

Xue Yan didn’t cut it quickly. Jiang Yue was afraid that Xue Dafu would notice something was wrong if she did it too quickly, so she took her time.

Xue Dafu had been doing farm work since he was young, so he was very efficient. It didn’t take long for him to finish the job. He kept cutting as he put it down, turning back to Jiang Yue and Xue Yan. “Slow down. Don’t cut your hands. You’re all children, and your hands are tender. If you cut your hands, it would like a long time for it to heal.”

Jiang Yue and Xue Yan were already very slow, but they still agreed so as not to worry Xue Dafu.

“We know.”

Xue Yan was slow to begin with, and he became even slower. However, he was worried that Jiang Yue would not be able to slow down, so he said, “Why don’t you stop cutting and pick up the beans instead?”

Some of the pods still exploded, and the round beans fell to the ground. The farmers quickly picked them up, not wanting to waste any beans.

Seeing that there were still a lot of beans on the ground, Jiang Yue stopped cutting and put the sickle aside. Then, she took out a small cloth bag from the basket she brought from home.

She held the small cloth bag in one hand and began to pick up the beans on the ground with the other, putting them into the bag..
