Chapter 21: You Have to Work Hard!

"Brother Shanzi, use a shovel, let the big ones dig it, and the small ones pick up stones and grass roots, so that it will be faster to gather!"

Contracting work, the shorter the time to do it, the more cost-effective, not to mention that they have to go to Xue Ming's craftsman's house to get yellow eel baskets, and take advantage of the evening to go down into the ditch, tomorrow morning there will be a harvest, right?

With the help of a shovel, the speed was a lot faster, and it only took half a day to clean up the nearly one acre of vacant land! The more people there are, it's a lot faster, but the copper coins in your hand are not much!

Hua Jintang is holding more than a dozen copper coins, although it is not much, but it is a lot of income for a few children!

A few of the little ones screamed with hunger and rushed home. As soon as I entered the house, it was quiet. There was a pot of wild vegetable soup and a plate of pickles on the table, and this time the porridge was very thick. The family gathered around the table and ate lunch silently, and even the small town town had a tense face!

Especially the uncle Hua Guiyi's head was slumped, with tears in his eyes, and he looked extremely depressed!

The atmosphere is a little weird! The joy of the four children who had worked all morning received the silver money turned invisible in an instant!

Several children instantly restrained their emotions and each took a bowl of porridge and sat down obediently!

"Dad, I have to give me whatever I say today, if I am expelled by the academy, I will have no chance! Daddy, you can't let the child give up halfway! Hua Guiyi pushed the bowl, stood up with a bang, and knelt in front of Daddy Hua all of a sudden, saying that he didn't get up anything!

Father Hua was silent for a long time, and said to Mrs. Fang: "Old woman, go and get it, hey, I am just a sin, why did I get lost in my mind and let you go to study at that time, this is not something that a farmer like us can support!" ”

"Old man, I, I'm just so little money, I can't make ends meet, what about a family of more than a dozen people, don't keep a little, just start spring, wait for the new grain to come down, the whole family has little income, is it like starving to death that year?"

After Mrs. Fang finished speaking, there were tears in her eyes, remembering that nine years ago, the youngest girl was starved to death during the famine, so Mrs. Fang instigated the silver money like this, but whenever she started, she would never spit it out.

Daddy Hua pointed at Mrs. Fang, and his hand hung down weakly for a while.

"Son, just accept your fate! In the past, you worked hard, but after so many years, even a child failed to pass the exam, which shows that you are not that material. ”

Daddy Hua wiped a handful of tears, put the dishes and chopsticks on the table, and squatted aside to smoke dry cigarettes!

Hua Guiyi's face was flushed, and when he visited his eldest brother, he opened his mouth and didn't move! The brothers in the family all lowered their heads and said nothing.

"Uncle, if you want to go to school, it's not impossible, I gave you an idea, I guarantee that you can go to school."

Hua Jintang saw that the time had come, and she thought that learning knowledge was very important, not to mention that she was willing to learn.

The whole family gathered in unison, and they all looked at her in a daze.

"You? What can a child be capable of, and what can a child mix? Hua Shi pulled Hua Jintang and scolded softly.

"Mother, don't care! Want to hear it? Hua Jintang smiled slyly, his eyes bent into crescents, like a little fox.

Hua Guiyi's eyes swept around, and found that no one stood up to speak for him, so he had to listen to what this little niece wanted to say? So I nodded!

"You taught us to read!"

"Huh?"

"Stupid, you teach us to read, I want to believe that the second and third uncles and my father are happy to give this silver!"

Hua Jintang glanced at the second uncle, the third uncle and the two aunts, all of whom were quite interested in moving, and couldn't help but be determined. Brother Shanzi was very moved, and the two little brothers of the third uncle's family ate porridge with their annoyed bags down and ignored it!

"No, you are all literate, who will do all these odd jobs at home?" Mrs. Fang immediately objected, "Your mother doesn't want to pay for the silver, so I'll let you come out and make trouble!" ”

"What's the matter with my mother? Besides, my mother is not my uncle's mother, should he be? Milk, you are your uncle's mother, you should pay for this silver, if you want to object, then you can pay it! ”

Hua Jintang pouted, half coquettish and half serious to tell the truth. Mrs. Fang choked, and then she blocked her old man's mouth.

"If I hand it over to you, I won't have the time to spend it on my schoolwork, no!"

"Why not, you go to school during the day, we do the work at home, and come back at night, it doesn't take long, an hour to give us literacy, it's always okay?"

When Mrs. Fang heard that the children were willing to work during the day, she immediately slapped her thighs with her big hands and raised her hands in agreement.

Daddy Hua had a smile on his face, and the cigarette pouch and pot were not so anxious.

"Okay, the three of us divide this silver equally, it's not like the house next door is going to get up and work for a few days, and the money will come out!"

The second uncle and the third uncle also agreed, and the Liu Fang clan bowed his head and did not speak, but he did not object.

"Alright, that's it. Fourth, don't be idle, teach all the knowledge you learned in the school to your nephews and nieces! How good is this, saving you from always saying that you don't work and don't contribute! ”

Mrs. Fang's face was full of joy, and she made a decision all of a sudden!

"I ......"

"What am I, I don't want to, let's go down to the ground in the afternoon?" Father Hua glared at his son, and Hua Guiyi instantly wilted.

"Uncle, you won't be afraid that we will cross you and be timid, right? Then you'll have to study hard! Hahaha......"

"Just teach, I'm still scared?"

"You're a monster!" Hua Jintang laughed, and when Hua poked Hua Jintang's head, everyone laughed.

"Uncle, you can go to school in the afternoon! But you have to work hard to go to school, see? Six nephews and nieces look at it, the task is huge! ”

Everyone looked at Hua Jintang's small appearance and couldn't help laughing! I am very surprised by the changes in this girl, and she can speak well!

After eating, everyone went down to the ground, and the children took a lunch break. Hua Jintang called Hua Jinshan and quietly went out!

"Sister, where are you going, I'm going too!" Before he was discharged from the hospital, the villain Hua Jincheng chased him out! Fortunately, Xiaojing Village is not far away, and the two of them brought the little guy!

Xiaojing Village and Dajing Village are separated by a small pine forest dozens of meters wide, and there is a narrow passage in the middle of the pine forest!

"Tang'er, did you really order that basket?"

"You don't want to starve anymore, let's come back and catch some fish and shrimp, we will sell them tomorrow, let's make two small dollars first!"

"Sister, it's so amazing, in just one day, the milk will let you eat thick porridge! But the milk is really picky! Dad bought back so much food and let him eat porridge! ”

Hua Jincheng pouted, twisted his little nose, and hummed twice, it seems that the little guy has a shadow in his heart about eating porridge.

"Okay, milk hurts you the most, milk can't do it, there is no food at home, and she can't do it!"

Hua Jinshan nodded the little guy's head, it seems that several children in the family are not comfortable with the city being favored, and even the biggest mountain is also delicious!

"That's why we're going to make money!"

"Okay, Tang'er, brother will follow you in the future, I will do whatever you ask me to do!"

"Me too, me too!" Xiao Jincheng hurriedly made a statement! The three of them talked and laughed and gradually entered the pine forest.

"Click......"

A sound of seeming non-existent continued to approach, and Hua Jintang suddenly stopped. Pull the city behind him. Shanzi also heard that something was wrong, and they all stopped.

As soon as they turned around, they saw a masked man in black holding a bright big knife in his hand, slashing at them!
