Zhang Laohan roared when he heard this: "What are you doing, you can't do this thing!"

rushed to Xiao Mu, snatched the remaining water glass, pushed Xiao Mu away, glanced at Xiao Mu viciously, and muttered, "What are you doing!"

Xiao Mu took a few steps back, staring at Zhang Laohan with aggrieved eyes.

One of the women walked out and said to Zhang Laohan: "Xiao Mu is still young, why is he so atmospheric, there is no need to be like this." ”

looked at Xiao Mu who wanted to cry and stopped, picked up Xiao Mu and walked out the door.

"Xiao Mu, do you usually treat your grandfather like this to you?"

Xiao Mu looked back at the room, and wanted to say yes, but didn't say it, and chose to be silent.

……

Half a month later, the water pipe was almost laid to Zhang Laohan's house.

It is almost a kilometer from the street to Zhang Laohan's house, and it is not very difficult to say that the construction is difficult, because most of them are slopes, if it is not difficult, it is not, the place where it is passed is full of woods, and it is inevitable that there are tree roots.

Naturally, you need to prepare more tools than other construction sites, such as knives, saws, etc.

At about nine o'clock in the morning, Zhang Laohan's family gathered a lot of people, all of whom came to help, most of them were young and strong young men, and there were also a few middle-aged and elderly people, all of whom were old people with children working outside.

Zhang Laohan shouted loudly: "Okay, okay, everyone, let's start work when we are together, and strive to finish it in one day today." ”

Groups came to the door of the uncle's house, each dug one meter, lined up, and started the day's work.

At first, everyone shouted slogans, which can be described as full of energy, and the ditch did not need to be dug too deep, so it didn't take long to dig dozens of meters, and there was not much left of the flat part.

Xiao Mu went home, found a small hoe, took it in his hand and tried to see if he could still take advantage of it, and happily carried the hoe and went to help.

When I arrived at the construction site, I saw that everyone was still resting, so I also learned to be an adult, put down the hoe, and sat on the hoe.

A young man walked over to Xiao Mu, took a dog's tail grass in his mouth, and teased Xiao Mu and said, "Yo, young man, you know how to help before you have a hoe?"

Xiao Mu smiled awkwardly and said, "No, I think you are too slow, so I came to help you." ”

The guy glanced at Xiao Mu with disdain, "Can you do it, look at your little body." ”

Xiao Mu clenched his fists, puffed out the slightly visible muscles with all his strength, patted and said, "Look, I am also a muscular person, don't underestimate me." ”

This act caused an uproar among the crowd.

The young man leaned down and pinched Xiao Mu's thin arm hard, pinching it softly.

"Look at it, look at it, you're still called muscle, and the fat is stronger than yours. ”

Xiao Mu screamed in pain and asked him to let go.

Xiao Mu got up and lifted the hoe, threw down the sentence "I won't play with you anymore" and walked towards Uncle Tao.

When Uncle Tao saw Xiao Mu coming over, he said to Xiao Mu: "You have come out to work at such a young age, ask your uncle to add chicken legs to you tonight." ”

Xiao Mu was obviously shy, turned his head to look at Wan Rong and said, "Don't." ”

"Don't, why don't you, if you don't add it, you will say that Lao Tzu will not do it. ”

Xiao Mu didn't know what to say, so he lowered his head, and the corners of his mouth couldn't help but rise.

It was almost enough to rest, and Uncle Tao also picked up the hoe and continued to dig the ditch.

Maybe it was because Uncle Tao was young and strong, but he raised his hoe high and dug heavily into the loess full of tiny roots.

The tiny roots of the tree are sizzling under the power of Uncle Tao's strength, which is very crisp and deep, and it is enough to go down with two hoes.

And Xiao Mu was very struggling, digging a few hoes but not digging deep enough, and even stuck the hoe in the soil and couldn't pull it out.

Uncle Tao looked at Xiao Mu who was helpless and smiled, didn't step forward to help, and waited for Xiao Mu to take the initiative to speak.

Tossed until he ran out of strength, Xiao Mu pulled Uncle Tao and said, "Uncle Tao, can you help me pull out the hoe, my strength is too small to pull it out." ”

Uncle Tao smiled slightly, "What's the matter, isn't it fun?"

Xiao Mu gasped heavily, wiping the sweat from his forehead, "It's not fun, I'm too tired." ”

Uncle Tao waved his hand, pulled out the hoe in an instant, handed it to Xiao Mu and said, "I can't pull this out, I don't have enough strength, young man, I still have to practice." ”

"Hey, hey, Uncle Tao is amazing. ”

But at this time, Xiao Mu already felt weak, and he also felt that his palms were very sore, and when he opened his palm, he saw that there was nothing good, and there was a blister in his palm.

I pressed the blister with my finger, and it was still a little painful, but it was quite comfortable to the touch and very smooth.

He opened his palm and stretched it out in front of Uncle Tao, let Uncle Tao look at it and asked, "Uncle Tao, look, what's the matter with my hand, why did I have a blister for some reason." ”

Uncle Tao smiled, poked Xiao Mu's forehead and said, "Silly boy, this is a sign of your growth, you are too tender, that's why you blister." ”

Then Uncle Tao also stretched out his palm and opened it to Xiao Mu, pointed to the calluses on his hand and said, "Look, you won't have blisters like me." ”

Xiao Mu touched it curiously, the calluses were very stiff, and he couldn't pinch them even hard, and even poked his hands, and they were a little yellow.

In the blink of an eye, the sun was already hanging high, and the temperature in Nancheng at this time had risen a lot, and I couldn't feel the cold anymore.

Xiao Mu's stomach growled, and it was time for lunch.

But in order to save time, and in the village, everyone was full at one time, and they didn't bring lunch or anything, and they planned to work until the ditch was dug, so lunch was free, and no one at home cooked, so Xiao Mu could only be hungry.

I thought they must be hungry too, but they just endured it because they were adults, and they were used to it.

Xiao Mu thought about going home to eat some, but he felt embarrassed, so he gave up this idea.

Picking up the hoe and gritting his teeth, he followed Uncle Tao to dig a ditch with all his strength, although he was sweating like rain and sweating, he couldn't hold on and sat down on the ground.

Reaching out and looking at his hands again, there were obviously a few more blisters on his hands, and I don't know when the blisters that appeared at the beginning had deflated, leaving only a layer of skin.

I couldn't stop tearing off that layer of skin with my idle hands, it was so sour, it was so refreshing, it hurt too much.

An old man next to him looked at Xiao Mu and said, "Ouch, Xiao Mu, if you are older, your grandfather and they don't know how much happiness they will enjoy, they are so sensible at such a young age." ”

There are still people who praise themselves? This sudden happiness caught Xiao Mu off guard, and he was speechless for a moment, but responded to the old man with a polite smile.

Being praised by the old man like this, Xiao Mu, who was originally weak, felt that his whole body was full of strength, and he picked up the hoe and continued to help the family dig a ditch.
