you're having a fascinating experience in your mother's village, learning about like farming and the cycles of nature. The connection you've made between the artwork "The Burning of the Weeds (Under the Yoke)" and your uncles' farming practices is really insightful. It's great that you're appreciating the hard work and dedication that goes into farming, and the importance of preparing the land for the next harvest. The impending rains and the need to clear the land add a sense of urgency and excitement to the story. I'm enjoying while reading about your experiences and observations.
