The two walked very fast along the way, and after a while, they arrived at the gathering place where the children played ~ the barn in the west of the village.

When he arrived at the place, Chen Guoliang shouted: "Do you want to make money? ”

The children who were playing suddenly ran to the two of them when they heard what Chen Guoliang said. He said, "Brother Guoliang, what do you have to do to make money?" Say it, say it quickly!" Someone else echoed, "Yes, say it quickly, Uncle Guoliang." (Chen Guoliang's generation is still very big in Guangming Village)

Chen Guoliang motioned to the children to be quiet with his hand, and after seeing that it was quiet, he said: "That's the case, the brigade headquarters wants to collect earthworms, a pot and a dollar (refer to their own washbasin)."

The requirements must be alive, and after digging, gather under the old elm tree at night to collect it.

Did you get it?"

The children returned: "I understand Brother Guoliang (Uncle Guoliang)." ”

Chen Guoliang said again: "Okay, now that everyone understands, let's go and dig earthworms!"

Song Xiaoling said at this time: "Everyone wait and then leave, listen to me first, one person will definitely not be able to dig a pot a day, you can two or three people work together to dig and sell the money equally." ”

The children said, "Got it, thank you Sister Reiko (Sister Reiko)." ”

Seeing that no one was going to speak, the children ran home to get tools to dig earthworms!

Chen Guoliang saw that everyone was gone, and said to Song Xiaoling: "Lingzi is really smart, in this way, not only will they be able to divide the money, but we will also be able to calculate the money when we collect it." ”

Song Xiaoling returned: "Oh, Brother Guoliang, don't praise me, hurry up, let's go dig earthworms too!" ”

Chen Guoliang returned: "Okay, let's go quickly!"

Turning his gaze back to the brigade headquarters, after Song Xiaoling left, Song's father said to Chen Changshan: "Okay Changshan, it's up to you to think about the thank you letter, I'm not good at this, I'm going to find someone to dig an earthworm pond." After saying that, he turned around and ran, as if there was some flood behind him, and as if some beast was chasing him, the smoke disappeared.

Chen Changshan looked at the disappearing back of Father Song, and swallowed the words that had not yet been spoken. I thought to myself with annoyance: Why didn't you catch Zhiyuan first? What a miscalculation! Now the thank you letter can only be written by yourself.

After Song's father ran out of the brigade headquarters, Zhang Luo went to dig the earthworm pond.

A busy day passed quickly. Before dinner, Chen Guoliang and Song Xiaoling stood under the old elm tree to harvest earthworms.

There was a long line in front of them, and at a glance there were fifty or sixty people, and it seemed that the children who could dig earthworms should have come.

Song Xiaoling held a large handful of gross tickets (one penny and a half cents and a dime) in his hand, while Chen Guoliang was in charge of checking the number of earthworms, holding a large coarse porcelain bowl with a notch (ten bowls are almost a pot) and weighing the earthworms in the children's hands one by one.

Chen Guoliang turned around and said a word to Song Xiaoling after weighing, and Song Xiaoling gave a share of the money. The two were very fast, and the children were very cooperative, and in less than half an hour, the two of them weighed all the earthworms.

Seeing that there were no children in line to sell earthworms in front of her, Song Xiaoling thought: If so many adults come to sell earthworms, it may not be possible to collect them for another half an hour.

He looked down at the three pots of earthworms on the ground, and immediately got goosebumps. I thought to myself: Oh my, this thing is so disgusting! I don't think there's anything when there are only a few of them, and when I put this thing in a basin, oh my God, I don't have to eat dinner at night!

Song Xiaoling, who felt disgusted, hurriedly raised her eyes to look at Chen Guoliang and thought: I'd better hurry up and see Brother Guoliang wash his eyes! Otherwise, I will have nightmares at night.

Song Xiaoling, who looked at Chen Guoliang, thought to herself: Alas, Brother Guoliang is so good-looking, and at such a young age, you can see that he must be a handsome guy when he grows up in the future.

can only say that there is something in the eyes of a lover, and it is really impossible to say that Chen Guoliang is a handsome guy, he is just more upright.

Chen Guoliang looked at the three pots of earthworms on the ground, and then looked at Song Xiaoling's appearance that he didn't dare to look at the earthworms, thought for a while and said: "Lingzi, you go to my house to find my father, and by the way, let him push the cart too, and then we will send the earthworms to Uncle Song's earthworm pool." ”

Song Xiaoling thought that Chen Guoliang knew that she was a little afraid of so many earthworms, so she wanted to take her away to find someone.

Thinking of this, Song Xiaoling glanced at Chen Guoliang gratefully and said, "Brother Xingguoliang, then I'll go." After speaking, he didn't dare to look at the earthworms on the ground, turned around and left, feeling a little deserted and fleeing.

Chen Guoliang looked at Song Xiaoling's cute appearance, shook his head with a chuckle, and his heart was soft.

In less than ten minutes, Song Xiaoling led Chen Changshan to push the cart, and after loading the earthworms into the car, the three of them pushed the cart towards the earthworm pond.

After arriving at the place, Song Xiaoling saw three large earthworm ponds in the square, and thought to herself: His father is still very efficient in his work, and he dug three earthworm ponds in just one day.

Father Song saw Song Xiaoling and the three of them coming, and stepped forward and said, "Here, just wait for your earthworms." ”

Chen Changshan said: "Okay, Zhiyuan, the speed is very fast! Today, all the digs will be dug in one day." ”

Father Song said: "I have to be more active if I get it done one day earlier and get the money one day earlier." ”

"That's the same, I'm also quite positive, you see that the cow dung and pig manure are all sorted out for you. Chen Changshan pointed to a pile of things not far away.

After hearing this, Song Xiaoling couldn't help but complain in her heart: This reservoir repair has turned his father and Uncle Changshan into money fans!

At this time, I heard Father Song say: "Okay, let's hurry up and arrange these baby bumps! ”

Chen Changshan replied: "Yes, yes, this is more important. ”

When Song's father saw that Chen Changshan agreed, he hurriedly arranged for someone to mix the manure, dead leaves, rotten grass and soil in proportion and spread them in the earthworm pond, and finally spread the pots of earthworms evenly on the prepared earthworm feed (that is, the manure and dead branches and leaves that had just been stirred).

I saw that the earthworms reached the feed, just like the fish that entered the sea and zigzagged into the soil and disappeared.

Three pots of earthworms will only have enough to nurse two earthworm ponds, and we will have to dig earthworms again tomorrow.

When Song's father saw that the work was finished, he let the few people left behind go home.

After seeing that everyone was gone, Father Song spoke: "Changshan, in a few days, you can open me a slip of approval, I will go to the brick kiln of the commune next door to buy bricks for my eldest brother, and then bring some more by the way to spread the bottom of the earthworm pond, so that the earthworms will not be able to run away."

There are no bricks at the bottom of this earthworm pond, and I am always unsure in my heart, for fear that they will sneak away after eating and drinking one by one, then we will be busy in vain. ”
