July 7
My father, Mr. Tuan, is a farmer. My Dad works more hours than your father. He usually starts work at six in the morning. He has breakfast, then he feeds the buffalo, pigs and chickens, and collects the eggs.
From about nine in the morning until four in the afternoon, He works in the fields with his brother. They grow some rice, but our main crop is vegetables. From 12 to 1 o’clock, he rests and eats lunch.
At four in the afternoon, they come back home.He feeds the animals again. Then he cleans the buffalo shed and the chicken coop. His work usually finishes at six.
Four or five times a year when there is less work, he takes a day off. He goes to the city with me. A farmer has no real vacations.
Best whishes,
Hoa
