On the weekend, Xiaobian returned to his hometown to worship his ancestors, and along the way, he found that the rice fields were golden and brilliant, and it was the autumn harvest season again. But some people rejoice and some people are sad, some have a good harvest, and some have greatly reduced production.

Listening to the old mother, just a few days ago, a woman in the next village cried out loudly in her field, for nothing else, but for her own rice. All the seedlings in her family's rice field fell because of the continuous rain some time ago and a typhoon. Scrape all her seedlings flat in the field and stir them in the dirt. And this stage is when the rice grows full, so that her rice will not grow full at all, and it will be soaked, and the harvest will be greatly halved.
Many people think that this woman is too pessimistic, not to mention the rice field has less harvest, even if the grain is not harvested, it will not cry loudly. In fact, this is a full man who does not know that the hungry man is hungry! Xiaobian has witnessed some of the hardships of rural people. When a family places all its hopes for food and clothing on this land, it understands sadness when it is lost. As farmers, the main living guarantee for a year is two seasons of rice, they are all year round around these crops, not only invested manpower, but also need to invest a lot of costs, in fact, in addition to these can be said to be nothing to earn. How much effort has been paid to see the harvest when it is destroyed by a typhoon, can you not be heartbroken? If there is no harvest, it means that the family has no food security and will let their children go hungry. In fact, it is very easy to understand their mood. It's like you work part-time, every month you rely on that little salary to survive, and suddenly half a year's salary is gone, how is your mood? Is panic sad? The only way is to borrow, but in this era, the people who can borrow money are the nobles among the nobles, which is very difficult!
In the past, when I was studying in my hometown, I witnessed someone coming to my house to borrow rice, that was a friend of my father,His family's conditions were also relatively difficult, the children were still relatively small, and the two acres of rice fields planted at home were not enough to eat, and the last season did not follow the next season. But life must eat, there is no rice, there is no money to buy, just see who has borrowed some to eat first, he borrowed all the relatives, and finally came to our house to borrow two hundred catties of rice to go back. Later, it was also a long time before it was returned.
In the past, in the countryside, even if you were not afraid to think hard and think of a variety of fields, you did not plant for you, because at that time everyone was farming at home, unlike the current rice fields, which were desolate everywhere. Occasionally, some people can go out to do business, and the family's rice fields are contracted for other people, in addition to helping to pay the grain tax, they also have to collect rent. Therefore, it is very difficult for a family that only relies on three points of land and has young children, and when I was a child, I also saw people who were sick with colds and did not even have money to buy two dollars of medicine.
In addition to the above mentioned woman's rice paddies were crushed by the typhoon, in fact, many farmers' homes are the same, in our village, large and small, are affected. A relative's family is one of them, on the weekend that day his family began to harvest rice, because the seedlings are flattened in the field, so the harvester can not harvest, can only be harvested manually, although the rice is not very ripe, but there is no way, and then do not harvest will grow buds, when the harvest is further reduced! Therefore, it is not easy to be a farmer, eating depends on the sky, even if it is the harvest season, the weather is slightly bad, and all the efforts are in vain!
