Flocks of dragonflies are flying close to the ground, or turning to the pond, occasionally touching the water, and when the pond ripples in a circle, they lightly bypass a lotus leaf, and fly away.

The dry sandy soil exudes heat, looking at it has a trance-like feeling, the sound of knowing is buzzing, the leaves hanging on a layer of soil are slightly curled, and some insects that inhabit it are afraid of heat, and spit out countless foams to wrap their bodies in it.

The old yellow dog stuck out his tongue and ran into the basin of water and licked it vigorously a few times, and then hid back under the big locust tree, lying in the short shadow, stretching his paws forward, his head resting on it, his ears hanging to the sides, squinting his eyes, and occasionally looking at the chicks that were swaying unscrupulously in front of him.

The chubby domestic cat jumped to the edge of the window and shrunk himself into a ball, motionless even when the door opened, and the little swallow went out with his parents to forage for food, eating dragonflies and insects that dragonflies ate.

The old scalper stood steadily in the circle, staring blankly at the things around him, as if recalling the road he had walked, only his tail kept flicking, driving away mosquitoes and flies that wanted to come and take advantage of it.

With the bell ringing of 'Ding Zero', the little babies who had read the book for an hour and a half arrived at the recess, and there was still an hour and a half before lunch, but the babies were already sitting in their positions and waiting.

A small bowl of goat's milk, exuding the taste of meals, and two vegetable buns on the plate, plus a fried brown poached egg, this is their recess meal, originally had to do recess exercises, but later found that they were helping at home, playing in the mountains, swimming in the water, and this item was removed.

Before eating, the Master said, 'One meal at a time, when thinking about it is not easy to come by.' ’

The little baby promised in unison that she would study hard in the future and repay the master's family, so she started eating, and the master nodded with a smile next to him, holding a book in his hand to read, and occasionally drinking the rock sugar mung bean soup provided by the master's family to cool off.

In the swimming pool in the courtyard of Zhang's house, Zhang Xiaobao and Wang Juan were lying inside, with a lotus leaf covering their faces, and Pomegranate, who was busy with his own affairs, found a small bench and sat on the side, holding a book in her hand, and occasionally yawning.

"Xiaobao, do you think my family can also get some rewards this time? For example, like your family, you can get some food or something, and you can relax and relax. ”

Wang Juan's voice came from under a lotus leaf, waited for a few seconds, saw that Zhang Xiaobao did not react, reached out and touched him, Zhang Xiaobao's body immediately sank into the water, and seeing that the water was about to enter his mouth, he hurriedly moved, lay down again, and fell asleep.

Wang Juan had no choice but to repeat the words.

"Oh, you ask this? It should be possible, after all, those grains and poultry are in the name of the Zhang and Wang families, and they have paid so much, they must have some return, and the court cannot chill the hearts of the people.

I just had a dream, I dreamed that the six ponds on our side are all connected together, there are several small bridges in the Zhuangzi, and there are people in the water rocking boats, humming tunes, and picking lotus seeds in each pond, and there are many small fish swimming and playing there in the clear water. ”

Zhang Xiaobao said as he spoke, his two calves kicked slightly, and his body reached the shore, pulled a wooden boat placed under the shade into the water, and pushed it to swim towards Wang Juan, who had snacks and juice on the boat, and did not dare to chill it for fear of drinking it to spoil his stomach.

Wang Juan took a sip of juice, and clicked his lips, "Then you should design the waterway well, there should be high and low, it is best to connect the small river in front of the door directly to the pond, and the water will flow into the big river in order, starting from the first pond and ending with the sixth pond."

Remember to pull the net, otherwise the fish will run away, let's also come to a meandering water, along the small river, build a wooden corridor, plant some trees in the open space on both sides, look into the painting from afar, look for seclusion in the near place, as long as you don't occupy the fertile land, no one will care, even in winter, you can also cook wine and enjoy the snow. ”

"Yes, you can look for flowers and willows in summer." Zhang Xiaobao agreed.

"You go down for me." Wang Juan stretched out his hand and pressed Zhang Xiaobao down.

******

At noon, the weather is getting hotter and hotter, and some idle people who have nothing to do spontaneously set up a stall on this side of the small bridge, and the new price has not come out today, everything is according to last night, no one dares to break this rule, otherwise they will be kicked out.

Ergou hurriedly ate something, and he was going to be busy again, to see which stall sold the goods to fill it, to see if the meat was fresh, and then to see if the food stall was broken.

At the same time, tell a few people who set up stalls left too many dirty things when they left last night, let them pay attention today, chat with familiar people about family life, whose children will leave, which pigs don't eat, go to the tea shop to drink a bowl of tea, and leave a small bag of salt in the owner's push, counting the tea money.

There are also more people eating in the Shuiyunjian Restaurant, Li Cheng took the Rubik's Cube after looking for the main family today to no avail, and also came here to eat at noon, went up to the second floor, ordered a few dishes casually, and then called for cold wine, and let the guy accompany him to talk.

Naturally, the guy didn't dare to refuse, standing aside, and helping to add wine, and silently muttered in his heart, what can be said and what can't be said.

"Man, let me ask you, is home local?" Li Cheng took a sip of wine, ate another bite of food, put down his chopsticks and turned his head to ask the guy.

"If you say yes, it's a local, and the small family is on the Zhuangzi, counting the small one, it's three generations." The guy said respectfully, while filling the wine glass for Li Cheng, and also picked two pieces of ice and put them in.

"Well, do you know what your lord's family is busy doing all day? How come I can't meet people? Li Cheng asked again.

The guy shook his head blankly, "I don't know, how can the master tell the little one?" Maybe there's something big going on, right? You might as well be diligent. ”

"Do you know what's going on these days?"

"Big deal? Yes, the small ones really know some, the main family is good, I heard that there is a big drought over there, and there is a locust plague, the main family let people bring food and chickens, ducks and geese over, the grasshoppers over there are unlucky, you don't know, the chickens on our Zhuangzi are different from other places, and they start to eat grasshoppers when they are young, and the small ones still remember, there is a chicken called Lao Hei, that guy, not an ordinary clever, no matter where you ...... grasshopper hide. ”

"Okay, I know, Lao Hei is a good chicken, let's not talk about it, is there anything else?" Li Cheng was quite satisfied with what he listened to at first, and after listening, he found that something was wrong, and hurriedly interrupted the guy.

The guy stopped unsatisfied, swallowed two mouthfuls of saliva, and when he saw someone asking, he said, "What else is the matter?" Yes, the old sows of the 'little swineherd' on our Zhuangzi have given birth, guess how many? Twelve, that guy, it's scary to look at, we used to know that pig is not ordinary, can go up a tree, that guy ....... ”

"Stop, don't make it up if you ask you, whose pigs can go up the tree? Is there anything else going on? Li Cheng couldn't figure out whether this guy's calculations were clever or lacking in heart.

"Oh, that pig can really go up the tree, the wind is strong, the tree is blown crooked, it goes up, say something else, I heard that in our Sanshui County Xiaoluoshui River, built a wharf, that guy, that place is called a big ah, the mountains have been dug, I heard that when digging I saw a big snake, that guy, two feet long, no one dared to catch it, rubbed the ground on the sand and ran away, that guy ......."

"Needless to say, I want to ask you again, how is your life at home?" Li Cheng finally figured it out this time, the guy is not stupid, not stupid at all, he is fine, ask him about things, others know what he says, and he shouldn't let people know, not a word is missed.

The guy still looked so respectful, helped move the vegetables to Li Cheng, and replied: "It's okay, the family is very good today, I raised chickens, and I was put in the car and pulled over there to eat grasshoppers, and I also caught four little pigs, when I was old during the New Year, I killed one and kept it for my own meat, and sold the three heads, so I could get some spare money." ”

"Hey~! Your family's life is not very good in my opinion, the pig can't sell much, and others will sell pigs during the New Year, so it's better to find a new owner's home, maybe it can be better. "Li Cheng has taken a fancy to this guy, he is smart and has a strict mouth.

The guy shook his head, "Back to your words, the pig doesn't need to be sold by our farmer, the master will set the price together and negotiate with other merchants at that time, kill it first, and sell it at different prices according to different places, chickens, ducks and geese." ”

"Aren't you afraid that the Lord will deceive you and deduct some of it?" It was the first time Li Cheng had heard that the owner had helped the dealer to negotiate the deal, and immediately thought that the owner wanted to take advantage of it.

"Buckle it, let the main family have a good year." Dude returned indifferently.

This time Li Cheng was even more surprised, could it be that the two of them are stupid? Let the master don't care about deducting things, okay, you can't find such an honest dealer anywhere else, or willingly, wouldn't it be better to get it to the Zhuangzi over there? So they began to buy it.

"There's a new Zhuangzi over there, you know? The master of the Zhuangzi is more powerful than your current master's house, and the government has to give three points, so why don't you call the people close to you, go over there together, move the house, and build a house for you when you get to the place, and you pay a little money for the house a year, and the house will be yours in a few years.

When you want to raise chickens, you can raise chickens, if you want to catch pigs, you can catch pigs, and you can be rewarded with a few feet of cloth for the New Year, and go back to make new clothes, well, how? You can't find such a master. ”

The guy almost didn't laugh when he heard this, it seems that the person from Zhuangzi didn't inquire carefully about this matter, can it be compared to the tailor-made of Zhang Wang's two Zhuangzi? Can it be compared to the lady of the lord's family to deliver it in person? Raising chickens? Where to buy so many chicks?
