Our peanut field. Our peanut field. Our peanut field is finally going to be harvested. Early in the morning, Village Chief took everyone to pick peanuts. When I arrived at the peanut field, the adults first dig the soil in the field and let the children pull out the peanuts. Looking at the piles of peanuts, I feel really fulfilled. This piece of peanut field was originally the open space of the Village Chief. The grass was overgrown in the past, and everyone would not be here. Village Chief thinks it's a pity. Later, he and the village people had a meeting and decided to plant peanuts in the open space together. So some people weeded, some people loosened, some people planted peanuts... It didn't take long before it became a beautiful peanut field. As we pick peanuts, we talked and laughed, and the time passed quickly. At noon, each family was assigned a large basket of peanuts. Walking on the way home, adults and children are looking forward to the deliciousness of peanuts.

Our Peanut Field

We finally harvested our peanut field! Earlier in the morning, the village chief led everyone out to pick peanuts. When I arrived at the peanut field, the adults had already dug up, or loosened, most of the soil in it, and the children were busy pulling up the peanuts. While we were picking the peanuts, we talked and laughed among ourselves, and the time passed quickly. Later, in looking at the huge piles of peanuts we had grown and gathered, I felt a degree of pride, as well as much satisfaction with our efforts. Afterwards, at noon, the chief gave each family a large basket full of them, and as they all walked home, both the adults and the children looked forward to eating their share of the delicious peanuts.

Originally, this field was merely empty open space, owned by the village chief, but completely overgrown with grass, and no one used it, or went there. He thought that situation was both wasteful and a pity, so later on, he had a meeting with a few of the other village people, and they all decided on planting peanuts together in it. Afterwards, little by little, the process started, as some people weeded, some people loosened the soil, and some people planted peanuts. In all truth, as I remember how it all started, it really did not take us very long to turn the formerly wild plot of land into a very beautiful, but also very productive, peanut field.

Hi, Hoxi. Good job! Both with the writing, and with the use of the formerly vacant land. Whatever changes I made were to allow your sentences to sound more natural to my native ears, to clarify your thoughts, and for ease of reading. Sincerest apologies if I have misinterpreted. I hope that this helps you. Jonathan

*As to the grammar, to allow for the passage of time be sure to pay more attention to your use of tenses. You should also put your text into paragraph form, as I have done above. Keep writing and keep posting!
