Chapter 202 - Lighting the Way Home (Ask for Subscription)
"Why are you going? Daddy Little Flower asked, looking at her back.
Xiaohuatou ran out without looking back: "I'll go find worms for the chickens to eat, so that they can lay more eggs." ”
"Haha, this kid. Xiaohua's father smiled helplessly, so he had to pick up the other things in the bag one by one and put them away.
"Chen Yang, how much does it cost you to hire someone to cut rice a day? If there is 100 yuan a day, I will also calculate the amount of rice cut. As soon as Grandma Lu walked into the yard carrying a bag of mountain pepper, she said to Chen Yang.
Chen Yang Chen Yang was holding Xiao Qian and playing with Taishan in the yard at this time. Hearing this, he looked at Grandma Lu with a puzzled expression, and replied, "I didn't ask someone to cut the rice." ”
"Why didn't you invite it?" Grandma Lu said with a smile, "Didn't you ask Xia Hua to help you cut the rice?"
The third uncle and three aunts looked at Chen Yang together.
Chen Yang shook his head innocently: "I really didn't invite her, she ran to help this morning." ”
"Really?" Grandma Lu felt that Chen Yang was not telling the truth, so she smiled and said, "Then when I came back from the mountains just now, why was she still cutting rice on your family's field?"
"Huh?" Chen Yang was stunned, "Grandma Lu, do you mean that Xia Hua is still cutting rice in my family's field?"
"yes. Grandma Lu was very sure, "Although I am old and my eyes are not very good, I will not admit it to Xia Hua, she is not wrong, I did see her still cutting rice in your paddy field just now." ”
"Oops, this stupid girl. Chen Yang hurriedly stood up and handed Xiao Qian to the third aunt, "Third aunt, you help me watch Xiao Qian for a while, and I'll go to the field to have a look." ”
When Chen Yang walked quickly all the way to the edge of his paddy field, Xia Hua was gone.
But he was sure that Grandma Lu must not be lying.
Because although there are no summer flowers in the paddy fields at this time, the golden rice in the paddy fields is no longer a forest of brushes, and naturally there is no swaying with the wind.
They were all cut by a sharp sickle, and one by one they were arranged together, one ear of rice on the stalk of the previous handful, and the next ear of rice on the stalk of this handful.
The paddies are put on top of each other one by one, and it looks like a long braid.
The braids were golden, like the hair of an exotic girl, and even more lustrous in the light of the setting sun.
Chen Yang looked at the golden braids in the field, and didn't know whether to cry or laugh for a while.
I've seen stupid, but I've never seen such a stupid girl.
Harvesting rice is not an easy task, and if the harvester can be driven into the field, no one will use human power to harvest it. It can be seen that this rice harvesting is not as easy as it is written in many stories.
Perhaps the joy of harvesting is easy, but as soon as the sickle falls together, the process of brushing the face of the rice ear is definitely not easy. If you were someone else, I would probably like to put down the sickle and go home for dinner as soon as possible, but Xia Hua, a stupid girl, secretly cut all the rice in half an acre of field by herself.
Chen Yang looked at the crooked 'braids' in the rice field, smiled helplessly, and then turned around and walked back.
"Xia Hua?" the door creaked open, and the little ones all looked at the courtyard gate with curious expressions.
Chen Yang went home with some snacks and fruits, and rushed to Xia Hua's house non-stop.
So at this moment, he appeared at the gate of Xia Hua's house, carrying heavy things in both hands. Originally, these snacks were prepared for the pot heads, but now it seems that they can only be requisitioned first.
"Brother Chen Yang. Sihua saw Chen Yang who was visiting by the group, and cheered very happily, "Sister, Brother Chen Yang is here." Come out of here. ”
"Huh?" Xia Hua grabbed a handful of green onions in her hand, and leaned out of the kitchen with a messy chicken coop on her head.
Seeing that it was Chen Yang, he hurriedly retracted his body.
After a while, when she came out of the kitchen, her messy hair was clearly tidying up.
She looked at Chen Yang who was standing next to several younger brothers and sisters to distribute snacks with some embarrassment, blushed slightly, and asked a little restrainedly, "Chen Yang, why are you here?"
"I'm here to thank you. Chen Yang said with a smile, "Didn't I tell you to call it a day at noon? Why are you so disobedient that you actually cut such a large piece of rice by yourself." ”
Xia Hua lowered her head slightly and said with a smile: "I just think that cutting for half a day is cutting anyway, and cutting for a day is also cutting, so I cut the rest easily, did I do something wrong?"
"No, no, no. Chen Yang smiled, "I'm here to thank you, you didn't do anything wrong, but did so well, I don't know how to thank you, so I can only bribe these lovely children with some snacks." ”
"Brother Chen Yang, are these snacks for us?" Wuhua stared at the two plastic bags full of snacks and asked expectantly, "Are they all for us?"
"Of course. Chen Yang said, "These are all for you." ”
"Why?" puzzled. Why did Brother Chen Yang, who had never been in contact, bring them so many delicious snacks?
Although Sihua wanted to keep all these snacks, she still looked at her sister with a pleading face, and asked for her sister's opinion first.
My sister said before that you can't just ask for something from the bachelors in the village.
Chen Yang's brother's wife ran away, so he is also a bachelor.
In this case, it is very likely that my sister will refuse to accept these tempting delicacies.
Although my sister gave them pocket money, they couldn't afford cheese candy and chocolate chip biscuits.
"Sister, can we ask for it?" Wuhua asked cautiously as she grabbed half a black sandwich chocolate biscuit in her hand, looked at her eldest sister with sparkling eyes.
"Of course you can, why can't you ask for it?" Before Xia Hua could speak, Chen Yang said first, "Today, your sister helped me cut the rice, and I don't have any money to give it to her.
"Huh?" the three little guys looked at Chen Yang with a confused expression.
Did my sister go and help him cut the rice? Did the sun come out of the west?
You know, my sister doesn't like to deal with people in the village the most, how could she help Brother Chen Yang cut rice? There is a rape and love! There is definitely a rape and love!
"You have to save some of these snacks, otherwise your teeth will be bad, and your stomach will be bad, but you will have to bear it, do you know?" Chen Yang's original intention was to hope that the children would eat less snacks and eat more.
But now the little ones are not thinking about snacks at all, and they all look at their sisters, and their eyes are like looking at aliens.
Xia Hua was a little uncomfortable stared at by them, so she stepped forward a few steps, grabbed two packs of snacks on the cement pier, and stuffed them back into Chen Yang's arms: "I helped you cut the rice to thank you for helping me bring yams to sell in the market, and not to covet these snacks of yours.
"Sister." The three little ones were anxious.
You don't want such a delicious thing to give away for free, are you stupid!
"Sister." Sihua hurriedly stretched out her two little hands, grabbed the plastic bag tightly, and said, "Brother Chen Yang's heart, let's not refuse, otherwise, Brother Chen Yang will be very embarrassed."
"Yes, yes, yes," the sixth brother nodded vigorously.
Wuhua nodded vigorously.
Chen Yang handed the snacks to Sihua and said with a smile: "Sihua is right, you see that I traveled through the entire village with two packs of snacks from afar and sent them to you, but you asked me to take them back, which made the people in the village see it, and they don't know what to say about me."
Seeing that Xia Hua didn't speak, Chen Yang hurriedly said: "Moreover, you did help me cut the rice for a day today, I know that if I give you money, then you will definitely be unhappy, so I can only send some snacks to the children.
"Hehe, I think what Brother Chen Yang said makes sense." Sihua smiled, "Then, I'll reluctantly accept these snacks."
With that, the little guy ran to the hall with two packets of snacks.
Seeing this, the six brothers hurriedly followed in.
"It's still hard to be embarrassed.Sihua's idiom is really good," Chen Yang quipped.
Xia Hua blushed slightly and nodded: "Then, I can only say thank you, to be honest, I have never bought them so many snacks at one time."
"Hey, thank you, it's not for you." Chen Yang looked at the sky and said, "Then I'll go back first."
"Either way, let's go back after eating," Xia Hua said suddenly.
This is the first time she has called someone to eat.
In fact, she didn't want to keep Chen Yang to eat, but humans are strange animals, and they obviously don't want to keep people to eat, but they still say very politely: stay and eat.
If at this time, the guest says, no need, then everyone is happy.
But if you meet some very ignorant people, you really take the master's words seriously, and stay to eat, it will be a little embarrassing.
Because sometimes, the host may not have prepared anything, so that there are few dishes on the table and the rice in the rice cooker is not enough.
Chen Yang understands now.
He looked at the only scrambled egg on the table, and knew that he shouldn't have a hot head, and replied, 'Okay, then I'm welcome'.
This one dish, let alone eating it for five people, even Chen Yang feels a little little bit when he eats it alone.
"I'm sorry." Xia Hua looked at the eggs on the table and said with an embarrassed face, "When I was cutting rice today, I forgot the time, and when I went to the village to guard the flower hand, I realized that he had left, so I didn't buy pork today, so I could only eat some eggs."
Chen Yang smiled: "It's okay, it's okay, I like to eat eggs."
With that, he picked up his chopsticks and took a piece of egg.
But as soon as his chopsticks moved, the plate bottomed out.
A couple of little guys stared at the big piece of egg on his chopsticks, stunned.
Chen Yang smiled embarrassedly, feeling a dilemma.
Do you think the egg should be put in your own bowl, or should you put it back?
It doesn't seem like it's right to do whatever you do.
If he slipped it into his own bowl, the little ones might have no eggs to eat.
But if he put the eggs back on the plate, it would be rude.
So, he had a flash of inspiration and put the egg in Xia Hua's bowl: "Xia Hua, you have worked the hardest to cut rice today, and this biggest egg should be eaten for you."
"Huh?" Xia Hua didn't expect this to happen, and stayed for a moment.
At this moment, Chen Yang grabbed the bowl and used chopsticks to pull the rice in the bowl vigorously, and put it all into his mouth......
"I'm full," Chen Yang put the bowl back on the table, "I thought, my son might be looking for me, so I'll go back first."
"Huh?" Xia Hua looked at him dumbfounded, "But, you haven't eaten a single bite of food."
"Hey, I like to eat rice." Chen Yang wiped his mouth and said with a smile, "You eat slowly, I'll go first."
As he spoke, he waved his hand at the little ones and plunged into the dim darkness of the courtyard.
Xia Hua looked at his vaguely recognizable figure and smiled involuntarily.
"Sister, Brother Chen Yang is really a good person." Sihua grinned.
"Really?" Xia Hua turned around and divided the eggs in the bowl among the three little ones, then tell me, how is Brother Chen Yang doing?
"Well, he'll give us snacks to eat." The sixth brother was the first to answer.
"Take us to town." Wuhua also thought of one.
"The most important thing you haven't said yet," Sihua said proudly, "Brother Chen Yang will also help my sister earn a lot of money."
"Yes, yes, yes," the other two little ones hurriedly chimed in.
Xia Hua smiled: "How good would it be if you used your brains to study? Eat quickly, and go to the shower when you are full."
When Chen Yang returned home, he just caught up with the fourth uncle cooking, so he ate again.
Although there is an old saying that food is the fragrance of other people's homes, if you want to say that you are comfortable, you can never compare to being at ease at your own home.
After a full dinner, Daddy Little Flower installed all three solar lanterns.
This kind of solar lantern is divided into two parts, one part is a lamp that stores electricity and the other part is a solar panel that collects energy.
Connect the wires that come with these two parts and you can collect solar energy.
"Look, Xiaohua, there is a remote control here." Xiaohua's father took out three remote controls and said, "Press this, it is on, and then press it to turn off, after pressing this button, it will automatically switch on and off according to the sky."
"Wow, that's amazing." Xiaohua looked at the remote control in her father's hand, her eyes full of surprise and novelty.
In the past, she also thought about owning solar lanterns, but she never dared to have the luxury of owning three solar lanterns at once.
"Xiaohua, where are these lamps going to be placed?" Xiaohua's mother asked with a smile.
