"To start construction, it is natural to start construction today." Wu Jianbin hurriedly said.

Tong Chuxue nodded with satisfaction after hearing this, "I heard that if the well is drilled smoothly, it will be completed in just one day." ”

It's not that it's impossible to work in a day, but you have to work from morning to night, which is tiring.

But now it was Wu Jianbin who deliberately delayed first, although he knew that Tong Chuxue was making things difficult, Wu Jianbin still gritted his teeth and agreed, "Xue Yatou is right, one day is enough." ”

"Since that's the case, it's hard Uncle Wu." Tong Chuxue said with a smile.

Wu Jianbin put down the bowl, smiled stiffly at the corners of his mouth, and went to find someone to work.

If he doesn't build a good well today, I'm afraid that his reputation in Shili Eight Village will be ruined in the future, after all, Wu Zhenzhen's little girl's grandfather is Lizheng of Qingshan Village.

The matter of digging a well was nothing more than hard work for Wu Jianbin and his people, and on this day, they worked almost all night to finally open the well of the Tong family.

With a well at the door of her house, she no longer has to work hard to carry water in the center of the village, Tong Chuxue is very happy and pays very happily.

Before leaving, Wu Jianbin specially explained not to take water a few days ago, and waited for the water to rise slowly before fighting.

As the matter of digging the well came to an end, the rice seedlings planted by Tong Chuxue in the ground had also grown, and Xu Jinniang was amazed at how these seedlings grew, and they grew so tall in a few days.

At that time, the whole village was in the busy farming season, and several families began to prepare to plant the new season of rice.

Planting rice is a very hard job, under the sun, people stand in the paddy field, the water is almost half up to the calf, bending down in the water to plant seedlings one by one. In order to ensure that the seedlings are planted neatly, a long line should be drawn on both sides of the paddy field as a reference.

Standing in the water for less than a quarter of an hour, Tong Chuxue's whole person was as if he had been fished out of the water, and beads of sweat the size of beans continued to gush out, wetting his clothes.

Tong Chuxue is the first time to do such a tiring thing, no wonder the ancients always said that "every grain is hard", so bowed body, under the scorching sun, planting rice under the sun is really a double torture for both body and spirit.

Even though Tong Chuxue's family only has one acre of land, she is so tired that she can't straighten her waist.

Xu Jinniang was also distressed and anxious when she watched from the sidelines, she had said before that she wanted to plant with Tong Chuxue, but Tong Chuxue refused to let her live or die, so she had to do it alone.

Seeing Tong Chuxue dragging her tired body home, Xu Jinniang hurriedly handed over a cloth towel, "Hurry up and wipe it, you see that your face is tanned like a red shrimp." ”

Tong Chuxue can't help it, the sun outside is too big.

She picked up the coarse porcelain bowl on the table, drank the water in the bowl in one go, Xu Jinniang saw that she didn't quench her thirst, and hurriedly helped her scoop a bowl, and advised: "Drink slowly, don't choke." ”

Two bowls of cool well water, Tong Chuxue finally felt better.

She still wants to farm and get rich, but now it seems that she really underestimated the hardships of farming, this kind of self-inflicted thing is enough to do it once, she doesn't want to do it again.

"Mother, let's buy some people to come back and farm in the future." Tong Chu Snow Trail.

"You kid, what are you talking about, our family is not a landlord's family." Xu Jinniang didn't think much about it, she just thought that Tong Chuxue was really tired today.

"Our family's acre of land has been planted, I see that the Luo family is also very busy these days, and I also met the Luo family's aunt yesterday, she is delivering food to the field." Tong Chuxue walked to the wardrobe and took out a clean set of clothes to change into.

"The Locke family has three sons, so you don't have to worry about farming." Xu Jinniang said enviously.

"The grandchildren don't contribute?" Tong Chuxue was puzzled, it stands to reason that half-grown children in their teens generally began to follow their father to the fields.

"There are children in the big room and the second room, and you know the situation in the third room, Xiaofeng is young, and he never works when he is in poor health. But recently, I heard that the third room seems to be arguing with the family about returning to the husband to invite him. Xu Jinniang said.

"Isn't it a good thing to quarrel, sir?" With her understanding of Luo Hui'an, if the other party goes to study, he will definitely be able to make some achievements, so there is nothing to hesitate about in such a profitable business.

"Some things aren't as simple as they seem." Xu Jinniang didn't want to say more, but when she thought that Tong Chuxue would also get married in the future, she felt that it was time for her daughter to know some family matters.

"Mrs. Luo has never liked Hui'an, she thinks that Hui'an spends too much money to see a doctor, and the second room of the Luo family has the same attitude. This time, Sanfang proposed to invite a gentleman to Luo Hui'an, but Mrs. Luo was naturally unwilling, and there was no support from others. ”

"What's more, Xiaofeng in the third room is already studying in a private school, and if he wants to provide another Luo Hui'an, Mrs. Luo must feel that it is difficult to explain to the other grandchildren, in case the first room and the second room also insist on sending other children to study, their Luo family will definitely not be able to afford it."

"The current situation is that each of the three rooms of the Locke family has a reader, which is quite balanced."

Tong Chuxue understood, on the one hand, Mrs. Luo was unwilling to destroy the current average state of the three rooms, and on the other hand, Mrs. Luo did not want to see this grandson.

After all, it's not about money.

"Mother, you said that Sanfang would make his own money for Luo Hui'an to study." Tong Chuxue assumed.

"Make money by yourself, even if you can earn it, it's useless, now the three sons of the Luo family are not separated, and the money earned must be handed over to Mrs. Tong." Xu Jinniang said.

"Then split up."

"You girl!" Tong Chuxue was caught off guard by Xu Jinniang, and looked at Xu Jinniang aggrievedly, Xu Jinniang was also a little angry, "It's such a big thing as splitting up, can you say it casually." ”

"Mother, I didn't think it was a big deal when I saw my grandmother splitting up."

Xu Jinniang seemed to be choked, "The situation in our room is different. ”

Tong Chuxue honestly shut up.

Xu Jinniang also educated, "The matter of separating the family is a big deal, in our Qingshan Village, only when the grandchildren are about to get married, the family must prepare to divide the children." Some poor or thin families generally do not divide their families easily, otherwise there is something going on in the family, and there are not enough people. ”

It turns out that there are so many exquisitenesses, Tong Chuxue feels that she still doesn't know much about the culture here.

"By the way, mother, the cost of inviting Mr. should not be high."

Xu Jinniang didn't know much about these things, "When I was in the laundry before, I seemed to have heard people say that some scholars who were poor and couldn't afford to go to the academy would invite Mr., nominally to invite a sir, but in fact, they went to the town every ten years to give guidance to Mr., and the rest of the time they studied at home by themselves." ”

Tong Chuxue knew that he was a nominal tutor, and the fee must not be too high, suitable for those scholars from poor families, as for whether he can read it, it depends on his personal creation.

However, she has confidence in Luo Hui'an.
