Chapter 36: Sell the first shovel

Why did Liu Gongzi come to buy flowers?

Because, Liu Gongzi doesn't like to study, he doesn't like to study, he wants to play again, and it just so happened that his sister asked him to buy flowers, so he volunteered and happily came to Zhao Lan's house to buy flowers.

Sending Liu Gongzi away, the neighbor Aunt Wang probed her brain to visit the door.

"Just now, the carriage came to your house?" Aunt Wang raised her chin in the direction of the carriage and asked Zhao Shen strangely.

Zhao Shen sat in the shade of the tree and embroidered a handkerchief and said perfunctorily: "Hmm! It's to my house. ”

Seeing that Zhao Shen's hands kept embroidering flowers and didn't want to talk down, Aunt Wang despised Zhao Shen's drag in her heart, and at the same time a weasel gave the chicken a New Year's greeting, and asked with bad intentions: "I look at the son of a rich family!" What's so good about coming to your house? Have you taken a fancy to your Lan'er? ”

Zhao Shen glared at her, and said in a stern tone: "You can't say this, my aunt is still young, and she hasn't discussed marriage yet, so you're not ruining my family's reputation as Lan'er." ”

When Aunt Wang saw Zhao Shen pestle her mercilessly, she was not angry, she still greeted her with a smile and said: "Look at my mouth, my speech is not sharp, and my stupid mouth is helpless." Say the wrong thing, say the wrong thing, don't be angry, I'm the one who is. But I'm curious to ask! Since you don't look at each other, what did that noble son do when he came to your house? Look at that car! The carved window grilles and carved lines can be delicate and beautiful, and the door curtain on the car does not know how gorgeous! Compared with the one in the east of the village, I think it's almost the same. ”

Zhao Shen replied calmly: "I didn't look at the car carefully, I just cared about eating." ”

Aunt Wang sneered at Zhao Shen's family: "Hey! Let's talk about it! What's the matter with your house? Let's be curious to listen, this good thing can't fall on us, right? ”

The more Zhao Shen didn't say it, the more energetic Aunt Wang became.

Zhao Shen thought: If I don't tell a reason, Aunt Wang doesn't know what to think in her head?

Her unrelenting face was really: If you don't tell me, don't try to send my underweight expression.

Zhao Shen thought about it for a while, and said cautiously: "Look at your curiosity, it's not that I won't tell you." In fact, there is nothing to say, he is Chun'er's classmate, he has never seen our countrymen, so he came to take a look. We don't understand what this noble man thinks. Don't tell anyone about it, nobleman! I don't know when I offended him. ”

After listening to what Zhao Shen said, Aunt Wang finally relieved her curiosity, and replied faster than anyone else: "Look at what you said, am I the one who talks a lot?" ”

If you weren't one of those talkers, I would have warned you. Zhao Shen said with disdain in his heart.

Although Zhao Shen despised her in his heart, he didn't refute it. It's not worth it.

Aunt Wang talked with Zhao Shen's calf for a long time, and when she left, she asked Zhao Shen's to borrow a shovel: "What kind of farm tools did you use to squat in the yard two days ago?" Look, you grow beans quickly and easily. ”

Zhao Shen thought for a while and said, "The newly made small shovel is very useful, and the child's father made it." Do you want to buy? ”

Aunt Wang touched her nose and said embarrassedly: "How can I have the money to buy it!" No, I want to plant some more late edamame, you lend me to make it first! ”

Borrowing farm tools is a common thing in the neighborhood, and Zhao Shen is not a small person.

Aunt Wang opened her mouth, and Zhao Shen did not hesitate, but instructed: "You use it carefully, and send it over when you run out, and I will use it in the wasteland behind me." ”

Aunt Wang saw that Zhao Shen's promise was refreshing, her face was very happy, and her words were much better: "That's it, I'll send it to you as soon as it's finished." You are just a good person, and you are easy to talk, which is like Zhao Shi's family. You don't know, Zhao Shi's family went to Mrs. Zhao's house to make trouble the day after Huzi married Liu'er. ”

Zhao Shen really hadn't heard of it, raised his eyes to look at her, and asked strangely: "What are you going to do, she promised to withdraw from her family, and she left twenty taels of silver, what else is there to make trouble?" ”

Aunt Wang, who was about to leave, saw Zhao Shen's question, and immediately became interested, stopped, and said to Zhao Shen's with great interest: "It is said that Huzi is married to Liu'er, and no one cares about her family's three girls, and scolds Mrs. Zhao for turning her elbow outward, helping outsiders and not helping her family." was so angry that Mrs. Zhao blasted her out and lay on the bed by herself for two days. I don't know if it's okay. ”

"Zhao Shi's is a muddy." Zhao Shen said fiercely, "I'll bring some eggs to see in the afternoon, don't be angry." ”

Aunt Wang nodded: "It's also right to go and see." It's this Zhao Shi clan who is really as you say, it's a muddy! Li Zheng saw her walking around. ”

"Why do you say that your Zhao family married such a fierce woman?" Aunt Wang raised her voice as she spoke, and asked Zhao Shen.

It is said that it was Grandma Liu's matchmaker, saying that she was a master of the matter, and it was just right with the honest Zhao Danian, so it was done at that time. However, I heard that it was okay when I first got married, not so muddy. Zhao Danian is at her disposal for everything, and he has developed such a personality. Actually, Zhao Shi's people are still very good, and their hearts are not bad. ”

Aunt Wang disagreed with Zhao Shen's words, and argued: "Roar! Don't be ashamed of her, a little thing will make the chicken and dog restless, and Zhao Danian will become a muffled gourd. She! She was so stingy that she never borrowed anything from her. She alone has possession of yours, and you cannot possess her. ”

Look at what is said, You will take from another, and they will give you what they can take, and they will not owe you anything.

Zhao Shen thought to himself, if you want to take her light, she can let you take it, and she is not stupid. But he said to Aunt Wang: "I don't know this, although my family and his family are both surnamed Zhao, but there is no connection on weekdays." ”

"You're just locked up in the yard and living your own life."

Zhao Shen smiled and didn't answer.

Aunt Wang saw that it was not too early, so she hurried home to plant beans with a small shovel.

Aunt Wang, who went back, took a borrowed small shovel and went to the field to plant beans.

This little shovel is really not ordinary. It's just so easy to use. Aunt Wang was secretly surprised.

When I passed by that day, I only felt that Zhao Shen's work was fast, and he wanted to borrow it and save it with his own big shovel. Unexpectedly, this little shovel is fast and labor-saving to use.

Aunt Wang, took the small shovel in her hand and looked through it carefully, but she didn't find any tricks, but it was one size smaller than the big shovel. Aunt Wang, who couldn't figure it out, didn't spend that much effort on research, thinking to herself: If you have some use, it would be better if you could use it for a few more days.

In an hour, not only the beans were planted, but also the water was handed over again.

Aunt Wang looked up and saw that the sun had not yet set, and the weather was a little hot.

Is this planted?

Aunt Wang felt a little incredible.

Seeing this, Aunt Wang couldn't help but move: return the little shovel to her in two days to see if there is any other work.

Mrs. Wang's family didn't find a job to use a small shovel, but she not only had a big mouth, but she was also nosy.

No, seeing that Grandma Liu was digging the field with a big iron tree to replant beans, she actually lent the borrowed small shovel to Grandma Liu. Grandma Liu is old, she uses a big shovel, she works hard, and after digging for a while, she has to straighten up and rest for a while, and then beat her back.

Aunt Wang brought a small shovel and demonstrated it to Grandma Liu, so she lent it to Grandma Liu. Grandma Liu learned to use a small shovel, and after a while, she used it easily, and before she knew it, a line of beans was planted. Although the legs are a little sore when squatting, it is better than standing, how can the old man stand for a long time. The main thing is that it is effortless, the small shovel digs a little, puts down two or three beans, and then uses the small shovel to bring the soil into the hole and evenly.

How convenient!

This stuff is good!

Grandma Liu used a direct boast, and later learned that it was Zhao Dazhuang's family.

Grandma Liu thought that if the small shovel was not expensive, she would buy one for her own family. With this little shovel, I can also help my daughter-in-law do more work.

Grandma Liu thought: In a few days, there are two acres of dry land that should be planted with corn, and it will be used as soon as you buy one and come back early.

After eating, I looked at the dazzling sunlight outside, and the weather was very hot, thinking that I would work in the fields later. Taking advantage of this idle time, Grandma Liu went to Zhao Shen's house.

"Lan'er, is your mother at home?"

Zhao Lan was in the yard, pinching the head of the flower, listening to the voice, and when she looked up, she saw Grandma Liu, who couldn't stand up straight, walking in the door to ask.

Zhao Lan shouted: "Grandma Liu is here, my mother is at home, coax Qiu'er to sleep." You come and sit, I'll call my mother out. ”

Zhao Lan sat on the stool with Grandma Liu in her arms and walked quickly into the hall.

Zhao Shen stroked his crumpled clothes and hurriedly rushed out, asking as he walked, "Auntie is here, is there something wrong?" ”

"It's nothing, don't be busy, is the baby asleep?" Grandma Liu asked with concern.

"When I fell asleep, I fell asleep as soon as I got into bed." Zhao Shen said happily.

Grandma Liu said with a smile: "I can sleep well and grow strong." ”

"Yes, yes!"

"I came to you to ask your family owner to buy a small shovel, it's called a small shovel, such a big shovel, Aunt Wang said that it was borrowed from your family." Grandma Liu told Zhao Shen the reason.

Zhao Shen said happily: "It's my family's, I told her to return it when she runs out, and she hasn't returned it to this day." This is my family's own making, do you want to buy it? ”

"It's very easy to use, your craftsmanship is so good. It's about to be planted with corn, so it's easier to buy one. Grandma Liu boasted vigorously.

Zhao Shen heard that someone wanted to buy something, and he was not unhappy: "If you want to buy it, you will calculate it according to the cost." Anyway, I made it home. Ming'er, I'll just tell the one in my family. However, it will take a few days to make it, and it is estimated that there are no ready-made ones. ”

"Don't worry, I still have to turn over the ground before I can plant."

Zhao Shen said about it: "Okay, I'll let him do it for you first, and I'll send it to you as soon as it's done." It is estimated that it will not be a few days. ”

"Oops!" Grandma Liu agreed very happily, "Why did your family plant so many flowers this year, it's very beautiful, Lanwa is not small!" Have you started to see each other? ”

"Not yet, wait for two years."

"It's okay for two years, stay at home and enjoy two more years."

"That's what I thought."

"But if there is a good one, you can also take a look, there is a boy in my mother's village, his father and mother asked someone to say matchmaking, I think the conditions of this house are not bad, and you can also match your Lan'er. His father and mother opened a snack bar in the town, and people who came and went to him to eat bowls of noodles or something if it was inconvenient, and the business was not bad, you have time to take a look, the baby was also working in the store. ”

"Lan'er is still too young, you can tell me a good one in two years. Don't delay people. ”

"No, look at each other, look at each other, look at each other to make it, and it's not like you can settle down by looking at one. You have to have fate to make it. Last time, Mrs. Zhao also asked me to find a good one for Sanya, I don't want to do more about her family, it's good to find bad luck, this is really good, I just want to tell your family first, if you don't want to go two days, I'll see what Mrs. Zhao says. ”

"Hey! Sanya is two years older than my family, so let's stay close to her family first! The old lady Zhao of the province is always thinking about it, and it is a thought. ”

"You! This can all be done. If you have time to take a look, it won't get in the way! ”

"Hey!"

Someone bought a shovel, and Zhao Shen was so happy that he didn't sleep well all night. I tossed and turned at night and didn't fall asleep for a long time. When I fell asleep, it didn't seem to take long to hear a rooster crow.

Thinking that he was going to the town today, Zhao Shen didn't feel like sleeping anymore, and struggled to get up in a daze.

After I got up, I kept thinking about whether to go and see the boy that Grandma Liu said.
