Chapter 17: Change
"Dung Lang, why did you start collecting manure again?" In the next few days, Chen Mo collected feces everywhere, which made the villagers a little puzzled, and Uncle Zhang, who was passing by, was a little curious: "Do you want it this year?" ”
"Well, I helped Da Lang's family make it, he helped me plow the land, and I helped their family make some fertilizer." Chen Mo didn't hide it, he figured it out in the past two days, since he couldn't sell it for money by making manure by himself, it was the same in exchange for labor.
"Hey, you kid, I asked you several times before and you didn't allow it, so I had to ask for money, how can I help now?" Uncle Zhang's eyes lit up when he heard this, and he came up and said.
"My family's land also has to be planted, they have helped you make manure, there is no benefit, and the autumn harvest can't harvest food, what do our mothers and sons eat?" Chen Mo said angrily.
"Earlier, since Da Lang helped you plough the land, Uncle won't rob him, I'll give you two chickens and a basket of eggs, how about you help me with household fertilizer?" Uncle Zhang patted the silent shoulder and said, "Do more." ”
"This ......" Chen Mo thought for a while and said, "Try your best, I'll be alone, why don't you let Ado come over to help me?" He is young and can't get off the ground, so it's better to make manure with me, learn from me for a year or two, and when he can work, he will almost learn this craft, and he won't need my help when the time comes. ”
"Why are you so good at talking today?" Uncle Zhang was a little curious, although Chen Mo was sensible in the past, he was very scheming in this regard.
"I used to be ignorant, but some time ago, when everyone saw that my family had an accident and came to help, they suddenly understood." Chen Mo hesitated.
"Good boy!" Uncle Zhang patted Chen Mo's shoulder and laughed: "Uncle didn't hurt you in vain!" Wait, and I'll have Addo come with you in a moment. ”
Chen Mo grinned, his shoulder hurt a little~ He still said with a smile on his face: "Then I'll go first, let Ado come to the house to find me at noon." ”
"Good!" Uncle Zhang is very happy, Chen Jiatian's production has increased year after year in the past two years, and everyone is a little hot, but Chen Mo has been asking for money to help before, which makes people very uncomfortable, and now that Chen Mo has loosened his mouth, the imposing villagers may not really want to take advantage, and most of the people who can help are willing to help, but in the past, Chen Mo's tone of business as soon as he opened his mouth was very unpleasant.
At noon, Chen Mo, who had picked up a large basket of animal manure, returned home with his basket on his back, ready to dry and grind the manure before further processing.
Mother Chen looked at Chen Mo with some doubts: "Mo'er, what is this doing?" ”
"I promised Da Lang and Uncle Zhang to help fertilize their family's land." Chen Mo said with a smile while using a wooden stick to spread the feces.
"Mo'er figured it out?" Chen's mother didn't stop it, and asked rhetorically when she heard this, she had told Chen Mo about this question before, but Chen Mo was unwilling to suffer, and she was unwilling to help for free, she was also a little helpless, and it was not easy to force the child, but now it seems that her son seems to be more sensible now.
"Hmm." Chen Mo looked around, and after seeing that there was no one, he nodded with a smile and said: "I used to think of people as evil, but today I suddenly found that everyone treats us well, and helps each other, it may not be troublesome, now Da Lang helps me farm, and Ado comes to help me make manure, so it may be more efficient to cooperate, or there is a surplus, which can not only subsidize the family, but also be harmonious with the neighbors, why not help?" ”
Maybe it's because he has experienced a lot of things these days, and he has seen the sinister hearts of people in the city, but he also feels the care from Li Zheng, Uncle Wang, and Uncle Cai, and this time he had a conflict with the sharp-beaked monkey cheeks, if everyone hadn't stood up, maybe today's incident would have been another result.
At the same time, it was also the Taiping Sect that came to collect grain this time that Chen Mo understood a truth, no matter how capable a person is, he can't succeed, just imagine that if it wasn't for Uncle Wang and Uncle Cai protecting themselves yesterday, Uncle Zhang and Da Lang turned a blind eye to this matter that morning, maybe it would be a different ending directly.
Although it was only a moment of effort, at that time, Chen Mo was already thinking about what to do after hacking people to death, Uncle Zhang and Da Lang stood up, so that Chen Mo suddenly understood that some things may have to pay a lot of price to do alone, but if everyone does it together, it can be easily completed.
This morning, Chen Mo was thinking about these truths, and at the same time, he was also thinking from another angle, if something happened to Da Lang or Uncle Zhang's family, would he stand up?
If it weren't for the events of that day, Chen Mo thought to himself, he probably wouldn't, and because of this, he felt a little ashamed of Da Lang, so when Da Lang asked him to help with fertilization again, he was relieved.
"My son is sensible again." Chen's mother looked at her son with relief, this child has been capable since he was a child, but he has become a little unsociable, many things like to do alone, and they have all been done, which is a good thing, but on the other hand, it may not be a good thing, this child, is a little arrogant in his bones, and now he can figure out these truths by himself, Chen's mother is very happy.
"Kuroko, how do you eat this!" Chen Mo wanted to say something, but out of the corner of his eye, he saw the sunspot lying on the ground licking the dry dung, his face changed, and he hurriedly went up to drive the sunspot away.
"Huh~" Kuroko hid to the side, a pair of mung bean-like eyes looked at the dried dung spread out by Chen Mo, and the eager eyes made Chen Mo a little crazy.
"You dog, you don't eat well, how can you eat this!" Chen Mo raised his stick and wanted to hit the dog, but when Heizi saw this, he spread his paws and ran back to his small dog kennel, poking out his head and looking at Chen Mo pitifully.
"Forget it, dogs love it!" Mother Chen was a little amused.
"Huh?" Chen Mo looked at his mother in amazement, then shook his head and said, "The sunspot is different, it can't eat this." ”
"In the future, as long as it eats this, you will hit it, and if it is too many times, it should be useful." Chen's mother smiled.
This......
Chen Mo glanced at Heizi's pitiful eyes, a little reluctant, looked at his mother and said, "Is there no other way?" ”
"No, it's its nature, and dogs are not human, reasoning doesn't make sense, that's the only way." Mother Chen shook her head and smiled.
Chen Mo looked at his mother, then at the sunspot, and finally nodded, in short, his dog can't eat this.
At noon, Chen Mo spread out the dried manure while vigilantly guarding against sunspots stealing food, until the afternoon, several children arrived at the door, looking at Chen Mo timidly, the leader was Ado, and the others were also children from several other families.
"Brother Ergou, my father also wants me to come over and help." Beside Ado, an eight-year-old child looked at Chen Mo timidly.
"That's a lot of people." Chen Mo was a little troubled, he didn't expect that there would be so many at once, and some looked at his mother for help.
"What does Mer think should be done?" Mother Chen didn't say the method directly, but asked with a smile.
"This ......" Chen Mo thought for a while, looked at Ado and said, "Ado, you take the dog and the three babies to collect dry manure, and the dog babies stay to help." ”
"Good~"
