Chapter 80: The Harvester of the Year of the Sau

The buns and soy milk were delivered, chatting and chatting for a while, and Xia Cao and Xia Maihe, who had nothing to do, got up to say goodbye. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

When leaving, Xia Cao smiled brightly, she didn't expect that there would be such a good harvest from a trip to Baicaotang, and the toothpaste would have to be developed by professionals so soon.

In fact, at the beginning, when Bai Jide checked her pulse and listed a lot of dietary prescriptions for her mother, Xia Cao hit him with the idea.

Isn't this kind of young man who dares to innovate and has a foundation in medicine an angel sent by God to protect her teeth?

Back at the bun shop, the eldest brother and his mother were closing the stall.

"Big brother, so fast! Steamed buns sold out? Xia Cao asked, when she went out, there were still two or three steamed buns.

Xia Qiaomu's movements in his hands didn't stop, "En." A passing caravan bought all the remaining buns. Don't stand stupid, you two, come over and help. ”

"Oh!" Xia Cao and Xia Mai He went over to clean up and move the table.

Because some customers like to sit and eat steamed buns and drink soy milk. In order to cater to the requirements of the guests, Su Shi and Xia Muhan simply set up two tables and a few wooden benches at the entrance of the taste hall.

After tidying up the stall, Xia Cao and his family went to the grain store to buy 50 catties of flour and 100 catties of soybeans. The proprietress who said last time that she would give them a discount really gave them a nine-percent discount and saved a lot of money.

Before leaving, the proprietress also said that if she bought more than 500 catties in the future, she would continue to discount 85%.

Of course, a few pieces of pork are also indispensable, and Zhu Mao saw that they had bought a lot in the past few days, so he gave away all those bones.

Xia Cao's longing for the water has still been robbed a long time ago, Zhu Mao didn't expect that this girl would eat meat, and he was still thinking about the worthless water, so he comforted the girl and left a pair for her.

After taking a nap, Xia Cao remembered that there was still a game waiting for her and her second brother, and she didn't pay attention to a child like Li Mingyang at all, so obviously, Xia Cao didn't tell her second brother that there was such a thing.

"Second brother, I have something to discuss with you." Xia Cao found Xia Mai He who was chopping firewood in the yard.

Xia Maihe stopped the axe in his hand, "Sister, what's the matter?" You said. ”

Xia Cao stepped over the scattered logs on the ground, came to Xia Maihe and said, "Second brother, do you remember that Li Mingyang said before that he wanted to compete with us? ”

"Well, that guy is fine, he just talks about his ability and has a good time. When did the second brother's fist lose. "Xia Maihe has eaten enough recently, and he has nowhere to use his strength, and he is quite happy to have an opponent who consumes excess physical strength

"The second brother said that he would run with us later, and I agreed. The location was set under the large peach tree in Crescent Creek. When we're fetching water, it's good to take some time to run with him. ”

"Oh."

Xia Maihe picked up the axe and chopped wood again, and Xia Cao went into the house and continued to polish her beckoning cat with her mother.

"Let's go, second brother, carry water!" Xia Cao estimated that the time was almost up, so he called the second brother and walked by the crescent creek with two buckets.

There were a dozen teenagers under the peach tree, waiting a little impatiently.

"It's been so long, the two of them shouldn't be scared and won't come!"

"Brother Yang, they shouldn't have deliberately tricked us."

……

The other teenagers chattered about all kinds of speculations, Li Mingyang frowned slightly, leaned against the trunk of the tree, his eyes were closed, and his fists were clenched.

Xia Cao and Xia Maihe laughed all the way to the stream, and there was no tension at all to compete.

"Xia Cao, Xia Maihe, you are late. Throw in the towel! Li Mingyang blocked the way and said.

"Didn't you say unitary time? It's not that the unitary time hasn't passed yet, how can we be considered late. ”

Natsukusa retorted.

In ancient times, the time was only set in an approximate range, and even Xia Cao was not late for the last train.

"Don't say anything, let's start the game now. From here, we go around the stream, cross the bridge, and back, and whoever touches the peach tree first wins. Lee Mingyang elaborated on the rules he had set for the game.

Xia Cao visually measured that the distance from here to the bridge was about 100 meters, which was not far.

"Ropes, start tying them together now. Who are you in a group with? ”

"For the sake of fairness, don't say that I, Li Mingyang, bully the small. You can choose one of these people. Li Mingyang pointed to a group of people behind him and said.

Xia Cao looked over, the corners of his mouth couldn't help twitching, the teenagers in this row are about the same height and size as him, is there a difference in which one to choose?

"Just him!" Xia Cao casually pointed to one of them, looking more familiar.

The person who was pointed out was called Dog Dan, and it was the children led by Xia Qiaomu who gave eggs a few days ago.

Tie the hands and feet of the two with strips of cloth, and the game begins.

At the beginning of the game, Xia Maihe lifted the summer grass like a cargo, clamped it under his armpit, and rushed forward. Strange Lika carrying Xia Cao did not reduce his speed, compared to Li Mingyang and Goudan, who were still running in step by step, Xia Cao, who had no suspense, they won.

After the game, although Li Mingyang hated how he didn't expect such a loophole, he was still willing to gamble and lose.

"Say it! What conditions do you want me to promise you? ”

"The day after tomorrow, you shouldn't have to go to the field, come to our house to help us make bamboo tubes." Natsukusa said.

Xia Cao has observed that the spring plowing in Taoli Village is coming to an end in the past few days, and some of the land is so small that there are no people, and it has already been completed.

With their family's steamed buns selling well, relying on the Xia family's father and son to make bamboo tubes is no longer in supply, and they don't have so much time to make bamboo tubes. Anyway, these free labor forces are not in vain.

"One person does the same thing, there is no need to involve them." Li Mingyang refused, he felt that Xia Cao's request was a bit excessive.

"Don't be busy rejecting the New Year, listen to me and finish me first. If you make two cones, we can give you a penny, or we can change to a big bun. You know, our buns are two pennies a bun in the town. I thought about it before answering. Xia Cao said temptingly.

Half-grown children eat poor old men, Xia Cao believes that most of these growing teenagers can't eat enough at home, and there are few people at home who can eat meat buns. Helping long-term malnourished teenagers grow, Natsukusa feels that she is really meritorious. (It's so shameless that child labor can be blown so well.) )

"Mai He, I'm willing to go to your house to help make bamboo tubes, as long as I give me buns and be full." Dogan said.

Goudan's family has four children, his father broke his leg when he went to work last year, and his family bought a few acres of paddy fields in order to raise money for his father's treatment. As far as his mother and grandmother are concerned, they don't make much money. The family is miserable on weekdays, and they can't even eat enough. The last time Brother Qiao Mu gave him the eggs, it was one of the few days when his family could eat meat.

"I'll go too, and I'll just need buns."

"Meat buns, count me in."

……

In this way, a group of cheering groups brought by Li Mingyang were all tempted by the summer grass to harvest into the house.
