Chapter 137: Nothing

"It's stewed, this chicken soup can also be boiled with grasshopper porridge." Tao Qini said without thinking.

"Cheng, I'll listen to you." Shen stewed the chicken directly.

"Watch the fire! If this dry bush catches up, let's wait to be roasted! Tao Qini glanced at them and reminded.

"Master, we all know." When Han Jinhu heard this, he immediately looked up at her and reassured.

There is game and locust noodles to eat, at least now you don't have to go hungry.

After eating and drinking, the sun was setting, and the fiery clouds stained half of the sky red.

"It's another sunny day tomorrow." Tao fifteen muttered in frustration, his tone very dissatisfied.

"Isn't it good to have a sunny day?" Tao Qini's clear eyes looked at him and said deliberately.

"It's not good, if it doesn't rain, this drought will continue." Tao Fifteen said with a sad face.

"Daddy! It's a bit unkind to say that, but we're all going to leave, and I think it's better not to rain. If you catch a cold, you can't cure it. Tao Qini's clear eyes looked at him and said bluntly, "Besides, even if it rains, we don't have food, and we can't farm." After sweeping the desolate fields, "If this wasteland is not tidied up, even if it is planted with grain, it will not be able to produce much." ”

was told by his daughter, Tao Shifu wanted to cry, "Alas......"

"Dad, don't sigh, didn't Uncle Zheng say that people move to life, trees move to death, we are going to a good life." Tao Qini looked at him with sparkling eyes and said with relief.

Tao 15 looked at her innocent smile, and she was the only one who was still so optimistic, and this optimism infected them from time to time.

"Dad, there must be a road before the car reaches the mountain, and the boat will naturally go straight to the bridge." Tao Qini's long eyelashes trembled and looked at him and smiled slightly, "Actually, I want to open my eyes even more, it's raining, it's better for us to stay and farm." ”

Uncle Zheng looked at Tao Qini hesitantly, his mouth opening and closing.

"Grandpa, do you have something to say?" Zheng Tong looked at him and asked.

The grandfather and grandson attracted the attention of the Tao family, and Xun Sheng looked over.

Tao 15 looked at him to avoid his gaze, and asked directly, "Brother Zheng, do you have something to say?" Say whatever you have? ”

Uncle Zheng thought for a while when he heard this, "Then I am in charge of money and food, and I can be regarded as having dealt with the land all my life, listening to Miss Tao's words just now, I think something is wrong." ”

"Come on, come on, Brother Zheng came over and told me, I don't know much about this, you are an expert." Hearing this, Tao Fifteen looked at Uncle Zheng with green eyes.

"Connoisseurs can't talk about it." Uncle Zheng said modestly, got up and walked over.

Tao Liuyi stepped forward and let go of the mat and said, "You sit!" ”

"Liuyi, sit here." Yao Changsheng moved his ass and vacated his position.

Uncle Zheng sat down cross-legged, "I'll just tell you what I saw." ”

Deng He pulled his own mat and sat behind Uncle Zheng, and the others also sat around with the mat, and said that the ancient bonfire was buried and extinguished before leaving.

"Just now Miss Tao said that if God opens his eyes, it is not bad to tidy up this wasteland and settle down." Uncle Zheng raised his eyes and looked at Tao Qini and said.

"That's what you think, is this a good field in the first place? It's just that because of the drought, the people are gone, and there is no one to cultivate. Tao Qini blinked her innocent eyes and looked at him and said, "Is there something wrong?" ”

"Let's join the rebels, this young man can join the army, have you ever thought about what you do?" Uncle Zheng looked at them and asked.

"Of course it's a landlord!" Tao Qini said as a matter of course, "This Shi Nong is a businessman. The scholar is too high, we can't reach it without knowledge, this work is too rough for me, there is no trick, and the status of the merchant is too low. This farming is our old business! That's it, what can you do without farming? ”

It is very easy for her to earn money, but it has to be in line with this era, that is to say, there must be an endorsement and appear out of thin air, which is the birthday boy hanging himself to die.

"This direction is good, where there is land, there is food, and where there is land, there is status." Uncle Zheng nodded in agreement and said, "The land is the lifeblood of the peasants, and this is the rice bowl of the ancestors and grandchildren." ”

"What do you mean by that? Can you elaborate on that? Tao Fifteen looked at him humbly and asked, the mountain village is closed, as a tenant farmer, he only knows how to farm, and he knows nothing about all the people in the city.

Old Uncle Zheng rubbed his knees and thought for a while, "Let's say so! We fled the wilderness and had nothing, and as outsiders, the locals would not accept us easily. ”

"If you don't say that you can't leave your homeland! Your relatives, friends, are here. Uncle Zheng sighed with red eyes, "If you are uprooted from your hometown and are unfamiliar with the land, if you have land, you will take root here, and this land is equivalent to everything tied to you." Only then can we share weal and sorrow with the locals, and only then can we be recognized. After a pause, he said, "Even if you only have a few pieces of land in your name, the people in this village will be willing to deal with you. If you are idle in the winter, others will come to your door and chat with you. If something happens to you, others are willing to help. ”

"It's this reason, my brother can understand it." Hearing this, Tao 15 nodded like pounding garlic and said, "Those who have land don't have anything to do with me who have no land." ”

Uncle Zheng closed his eyes and sighed and said, "We are all landless refugees now, and if we can't have land to take root, no one wants to deal with us." You lift your feet, pat your ass and leave, what's the use of the locals getting along well with the homeless? ”

"It doesn't matter, I have the strength, let's work in the city, and when I save enough money, I will buy land, or I will take root." Tao Liuyi looked at him and said optimistically, "If you have land, you will have everything!" ”

"What you want to say is like He Erleng, who keeps working and saving money." Uncle Zheng looked at him and asked seriously.

"Uh-huh!" Tao fifteen nodded hurriedly.

"No! Outsiders like us are actually equivalent to untouchables, and it is normal for both the local government and the locals to look down on them, and the most fearful thing is to be driven away by the government. Uncle Zheng looked at him coldly and said, "Even if the local government is kind and lets us enter the city, it will be difficult to gain a foothold in the city." Someone has to vouch for a job, but who would be kind enough to stand up for you, a stranger of unknown origin. It's not a parent! ”

"But Erleng ......." Tao Liuyi looked at He Erleng, and suddenly remembered what Yao Changsheng said, and after Uncle Zheng said this, he understood how difficult it was to gain a firm foothold in the city.

"Those who have fled the famine have always been either begging for food, becoming thieves, falling into the grass, or starving to death." Uncle Zheng looked at them and said directly, "In the end, it's for stuttering." ”

Uncle Zheng looked at them and thought for a while, and then said, "I know that you are capable and willing to do it, but if you have saved enough money, you may not be able to buy this land." ”
