?“ That smart man, please flush the toilet, how many times have I told you, you must flush the toilet when you go to the toilet, why can't you always remember?" The third aunt stood at the other end of the yard and called out angrily.

The third uncle's face changed, he laughed twice, and hurriedly ran to the toilet.

After listening to the third uncle's words, Xia Hua was already relieved: "It seems to be really reasonable, because the weather is dry, so the soil moisture is also less, and in that way, the yam will also become lighter." Well, if that's the case, it means that my harvest today is still very good. ”

"That's what it was. Chen Yang took the yam down from the scale, "Although you didn't dig a lot of yam today, you can rest assured, you can earn at least five hundred yuan tomorrow?"

"How can there be so many?" Xia Hua silently calculated by herself and said, "If it is sold at the price of twenty yuan a catty, then it can only be sold for exactly five hundred yuan?

"This is the yam you found yourself, and it was also dug up by yourself, and I just helped you sell it, so I won't take a cut. You can rest assured, all the money from the sale belongs to you. ”

"Huh?" Xia Hua was surprised, "But, didn't we say it before? I'll dig it, you sell it, and then you take a fifth of it." She thought about it carefully, and Chen Yang did say so at that time.

Chen Yang smiled: "That's because I guided you to dig that yam king, so I took a cut." You dug up these yams yourself, and I won't take a cut, so don't worry. ”

"But I want you to take a cut. Xia Hua felt that even if Chen Yang wanted to take half of it, it was a matter of course.

But Chen Yang persistently refused: "No, no, no, Xia Hua, this is what you bought with your sweat, it should all belong to you, if you continue to be stubborn, I won't help you sell it." ”

Xia Hua wanted to continue to persuade Chen Yang to take a cut, but as soon as Chen Yang's words came out, she couldn't say anything more.

She thought for a moment and said, "So, can I do something for you?"

She is not afraid of any dirty work. As long as she can return this favor.

Chen Yang laughed and said, "If you really want to repay me, then you can come to my house tomorrow and help me cut the rice." ”

Xia Hua looked at Chen Yang who was laughing in a daze, and didn't know what to say.

Because the job of threshing rice is really not dirty work for Xia Hua, who has been working for a long time.

……

In the morning, Chen Yang asked the fourth uncle to go to the city to deliver everything by himself.

After loading all the things into the pickup truck, Chen Yang explained: "Fourth uncle, this yam and bamboo shoots were sent to the Yuelai Inn, you should remember the road." ”

As soon as the fourth uncle thought of the silent asphalt road and the flip-flop man who was so angry that he almost vomited blood, he gritted his teeth and said, "I will never forget it in my life." ”

"Haha, that's good. Also, you can show this egg to Ma Chenggong, I already called him last night. I told him that these eggs were worth at least ten dollars each. He said that he could only give the price after he had eaten it himself, so you should also send these eggs to the Yuelai Inn, and you should wait for the horse to successfully eat the eggs and give the price. If he gives the price less than ten dollars a piece, you bring the eggs back. Don't hesitate to bring it back decisively. ”

"Ahh The fourth uncle looked at the egg in his hand and said, "This is an egg, not a dragon egg, it sells for ten yuan a piece, are you having a nervous breakdown?"

Chen Yang rolled his eyes and smiled helplessly: "Fourth uncle, you just believe me, this egg is definitely worth ten yuan a piece." Moreover, this is the eggs from a poor student in Junhui's class, and I only helped sell them, so you must protect the safety of these eggs. ”

"Ha, I'm still protecting the eggs, is there still a weasel blocking the way?"

"Fourth uncle, can you stop interjecting?" Chen Yang looked angry.

"Okay, you say. ”

"This is the eggs entrusted to me by others, and these eggs are the living expenses of Junhui's classmate's family, you must not be careless, you must take good care of these eggs, don't accidentally break them all for me. If you break these eggs, you're going to have to pay ten dollars a piece, you know?"

As soon as Chen Yang said this, the fourth uncle had to pay attention to the eggs in his hand: "Okay, okay, I know? ”

"And. Chen Yang pulled him and added, "I can only give Ma Chenggong a free taste." ”

"Why? Isn't it just eggs? Look at how stingy you have become. "I really didn't expect that my old Chen family would have such a stingy ghost as Chen Yang.

"What kind of stinginess, this is called hunger marketing, do you understand?" Chen Yang is really going to be angry to death, how can there be an elm head like the fourth uncle in this world?

"You have it, you look dark, you say hunger marketing, hunger marketing. I'm leaving. "The fourth uncle didn't want to listen to this 'little old woman' anymore, so he carefully put the eggs away, and then got in the car and drove away.

Chen Yang ate the dust on his face.

After returning home, serving Xiaoqian, and then giving some work to the third uncle and three aunts, he put on a straw hat and long-sleeved covers, picked up a sickle and walked to his own rice field.

Because Shiraishi Village is a real mountain village, the rice fields in Shiraishi Village are all terraced fields, and that kind of large harvesters cannot enter these terraced fields to work.

As a result, if you want to harvest the rice in the field, you have to harvest it by hand.

For ordinary mountain people, harvesting rice by hand is not an easy task.

After all, the sun is so strong, the rice is so piercing, and the fields are full of snakes and other poisonous insects.

So, the harvest season is not as simple as the people in the city think.

Of course, no matter how fortunate the harvest is, it is worth it.

However, harvesting this coolie is not a matter for Chen Yang now, after all, he has two physical abilities.

When he arrived at the field, he stood on the edge of the ridge, straightened his neck, and looked at the rice field like a ladder, and his heart was still very happy.

The golden rice swaying with the breeze, although it is not exaggerated to the point of surging layers of golden waves, but it can also give people a pleasant feeling like ripples in the lake.

The soft wind, the golden rice, the verdant mountains, the flowing river - everything appears in their original place, in this small mountain village, put together a beautiful and moving autumn painting.

After admiring it, they began to use a sickle to cut the rice.

Cutting rice with a sickle can easily cut your own hands if you are not careful, so whether it is Chen Yang or other mountain people, you always have to be more focused when cutting rice than other times.

Even if the sickle can't cut the finger, the bladed seedlings like to run under people's necks or leave scars on their faces.

Chen Yang was cutting the rice intently, not noticing at all that on the other side of the field, the summer flowers had quietly arrived.

Yesterday, Chen Yang said that she would come to the house to help harvest the rice, which was actually just a joke, but Xia Hua took it seriously.

After sending her younger siblings to school as soon as possible, she hurried to help cut the rice.

When she arrived at the edge of the field, she saw that Chen Yang was very focused, so she didn't bother him, but silently walked to the other end to work.

The sickles of the mountain people are usually used to cut grass, but when it comes to the harvest season, they are used to cut every inch of time in autumn.

Chen Yang remembered that when he was a child, his father would always take him to the field to harvest rice at this time.

My father wore a straw hat, and he also wore a straw hat, stepping on the verdant weeds, facing the rising sun, riding the fragrant morning breeze, passing through the golden rice fields, listening to the whispers of insects in the fields, one tall and one short, one in front and one behind, walking slowly on the narrow ridges.

In the distance, the mist that shrouded the fields slowly drifted away, and the hidden mountains gradually became clear.

The mountains are still the same mountains, but the fog may not be the same fog anymore.

Chen Yang already had a lot of sweat on his forehead, so he straightened up and wiped the sweat.

I didn't want to, but I saw that on the other side of the field, there was a figure wearing a straw hat cutting rice.

He was startled, thinking it was his father and thinking he was hallucinating.

But after thinking about it, he felt ridiculous again, and after he saw the figure clearly, he smiled again: "Xia Hua, why are you here?" Xia Hua heard the voice of the voice and straightened her waist.

After some labor, her face was not only soaked in sweat, but also red, which was particularly good-looking.

Although the hair under the straw hat was a little messy, there were a few strands of hair sticking to the sides of the cheeks. But, it's so good-looking.

She looked like an elf at this moment, standing quietly in the golden rice field. It's small, but it's smart.

"Didn't you say yesterday that I would help you cut the rice?" she asked with an innocent look as she wiped her sweat.

Only then did Chen Yang remember what happened yesterday. "I was joking," he laughed. Xia Hua, it's really serious. ”

Xia Hua nodded: "The grace of dripping water should be repaid with a spring." ”

"I don't need your repayment, Xia Hua, you better go back. Chen Yang said, "You go into the mountains to dig yams, dig more yams, and you can make a little money." ”

Xia Hua shook her head, a little stubborn: "No, I won't go into the mountain today, I'm going to help you cut the rice." ”

After that, she didn't wait for Chen Yang to speak, so she bent down again, waved the sickle, and cut the rice with a brush.

Seeing this, Chen Yang didn't know what to say, so he could only follow her.

The rice on Chen Yang's side was cut smoothly, and the fourth uncle's side was also quite smooth.

After he delivered the mountain pepper sauce, he took the yam, bamboo shoots and eggs to the Yuelai Inn.

When it was time to come to the inn in the month, Ma Chenggong was already waiting for him in the parking lot.

"I heard Chen Yang say last night that today will bring you very amazing eggs, I want to see how amazing the eggs are. Ma Chenggong said with a smile, walked to the side of the pickup truck, and looked at the contents of the car for a while.

The fourth uncle laughed and said: "I don't know what kind of egg it is, we Xiaoyang said that the egg was sold by someone else, what kind of taste it is, I haven't eaten it." ”

"Now, this is the egg. The fourth uncle opened the car door and picked the smallest one out of the many eggs and gave it to Ma Chenggong.

Ma Chenggong looked at the egg in his hand the size of an ordinary egg, and wondered: "Isn't this an ordinary egg?

"Who knows?" said the fourth uncle, "probably delicious." ”

Ma Chenggong nodded: "That's okay, I'll take this in and try it." Just give them the bamboo shoots and yams. ”

Ma Chenggong took the egg and ran to the kitchen in a hurry: "Quick, fry me an egg." ”

"Huh?" the kitchen crowd looked at him in amazement.

He was holding an egg in his hand, his face was anxious, and he looked very funny.

"It's just an egg, and as for making you so anxious?" the kitchen boss was a tall, fat man.

He walked up to Ma Chenggong, took the egg from his hand, and shone it into the light, "I thought this egg was made of gold." ”

Ma Chenggong said: "Oh, stop talking nonsense, hurry up and help me fry this egg." People are still waiting outside. ”

Seeing that Ma Chenggong attached so much importance to this matter, the kitchen boss took charge of the spoon himself and fried this ordinary-looking egg.

But as soon as the eggs were put into the oil pot, a strange fragrance overflowed from the pot.

"How many times have I said that? working in the kitchen, no perfume. The kitchen boss snorted violently, turned around and glared angrily at his subordinates, "Who is the perfume that sprays? Stand up for me, or I will be caught later, but it will not be as simple as a fine." ”

Everyone looked at the boss with a confused expression.

It is estimated that in this inn, no one is brave enough to wear perfume to work.

Because the smell of perfume is too strong, it will directly affect the customer's sense of smell and appetite, so the inn's rules clearly state that employees are prohibited from wearing perfume to work.

Therefore, the girls who work in the front hall never dare to spray perfume, and they all wear the flower bags issued by the company on their bodies and use them as fragrances.

And the kitchen, which is a place to make delicious food, can't spray perfume.

People in the kitchen also wear sachets according to the regulations, but their sachets are not the flower sachets in the front hall, but sachets made of spices such as cinnamon, star anise, and peppercorns.

At this moment, the kitchen was suddenly filled with a strange fragrance of flowers, and the kitchen boss's first reaction was that it was the king who violated the rules and sprayed perfume in the kitchen

Everyone was stunned, and they also smelled the strong fragrance of potpourri.

"Boss, it's not me, I didn't spray, look at me, I'm still holding two geese in my hands, it's really not me." A young man first proved his innocence.

Also, he is just a goose catcher, and he doesn't have a chance to flirt with those little girls in the front hall, so naturally he doesn't need to get those fancy things.

"It's not me, boss, you see, I'm massaging beef. ”

"No, it's not me. I've been sitting here with the fire, and I've never left the kitchen. ”

"Who the hell is it? It's better for me to stand up honestly, as long as I have the courage to admit my mistakes, then I can still open the net. "The kitchen boss speaks with confidence.

After all, this is the chef's dream. The environment is good, the salary is high, the treatment is strong, and there are many beautiful women, who doesn't want to work here. Moreover, the stewards above are also better than the other.

The kitchen boss is also a veteran, and the inn is no longer just a post for him, but more like his home.

At this time, someone blatantly violated the rules of the kitchen, and he was very angry.
