Since it was summer, it got dark relatively late. In addition, I just had dinner, and a few boys and girls walked all the way, which was also comfortable, which was definitely much better than nesting at home or listening to the nagging of adults.

In this way, walking all the way, chatting all the way, and when Li Huaihua and the three of them took their younger brothers to the commercial street of Chenjiacun, it was not completely dark, so the legendary street lamp had not been lit.

Originally, there was a special person in charge of this lamp, and it was checked every day to its good condition, the amount of oil, and so on. When it gets dark, they will responsibly light it for passers-by.

It's just that the crowd of people coming and going here is obviously beyond the imagination of a few people, it is simply too much. And you can hear it from the accent alone, many of them are still outsiders. Thinking of the preaching and warning of the previous preaching group, several people subconsciously held their younger brother's hand.

They came to learn to read and play, and they didn't want anything unpleasant to happen. Although it is very peaceful now, there is no guarantee that someone will take the risk. Hanako or something.,Don't you just like to do this kind of thing.。

Walking through the shopping street, buying some snacks to coax the three children, and bypassing the 10,000-person square, the three of them found the literacy class run by the Salesian Bureau.

Fortunately, there were only a few people sitting inside, so they all pulled their younger brothers in and sat down and waited for class. And the people sitting in the room are the same as them, big and small, men and women, and they don't look obtrusive at all.

The idea of men and women sitting together in class has been opposed by those who are too traditional. For this reason, the disrupted literacy classes were suspended for a time. Like this large-scale social phenomenon, Ye Feng can't interfere with it. In addition to finding a way to solve the problem, that is respect.

It can also be said to be a compromise.

Speaking of which, this problem was not a problem at all with Ye Feng, but when something happened, he realized that this was another time and space, and he was a little taken for granted. So he began to think of some feasible ways, anyway, the literacy class could not be stopped so inexplicably.

He can see that many people, especially women, are still willing to learn.

Just on Ye Feng's side, he thought that he would continue to let men and women continue to teach in the same room, but they were separated by a screen. When I set up a separate classroom and train a female volunteer to attend the class, a miracle happened.

Without him, the person who took the lead in making trouble before came out to apologize publicly.

I saw that the man wept bitterly and repented publicly, saying that there was no problem at all in this class, but that he had ill intentions and lived the belly of a gentleman with the heart of a villain, and said that he was despicable and shameless......

In short, adding all kinds of bad words to himself, Ye Feng was dumbfounded, and after thinking about it for a long time, he couldn't figure out what was going on. It stands to reason that this kind of old stubbornness is very traditional, and even the transformation is not so fast.

This girl can't be evil, right?

However, just like that, the literacy class was resumed and classes continued.

It was only later that Ye Feng learned that it was the Huang family, Aunt Cha Wu, and the Fan family who joined forces to scold this person for being bloody. It is said that Aunt Cha also resorted to some despicable means, which made the person very miserable.

Ye Feng was even more confused. Speaking of which, both the Fan and Huang families have daughters, and they are both literate in the class, and their grades are also good. Even if you haven't graduated yet, it's okay to be an accountant now.

Therefore, it is very understandable that the two of them took action to rectify that person for the sake of their daughter's future. But what is Aunt Cha for what?

Ye Feng, who found out the truth of the matter, couldn't cry or laugh.

It turned out that Aunt Cha fell in love with a girl who came here to read and write, this person has a good background and is beautiful, the key is to understand the general situation. For this reason, Aunt Zha wanted to introduce her son to her son after she finished her studies. Later, her stupid son was taken care of by a shrewd daughter-in-law, and she was more at ease.

In addition, she herself is studying in this class, learning how to run and manage, so she has no good feelings for this kind of person who hinders her from studying for free.

If these three women only attacked from a spiritual and verbal level, then the other encounters were even worse.

It is said that this man was also severely attacked for half a month, that is, every time he appeared wherever he appeared, even at his uncle's house or his distant cousin's house, he would be beaten violently by two masked men with cloth bags at night.

And the places where they were beaten were all unspeakable. So, judging from the face alone, it is unscathed.

In this way, after such devastation, he hurriedly went to Chenjia Village to apologize in front of everyone. No matter how stupid a person is, after being beaten so many times, he naturally knows the reason.

And on the night of the apology, when he was trembling and preparing to be beaten again, the two masked men did not appear, to be exact, never again.

In this way, the literacy classes were continued.

The first thing the volunteers teach this evening is the family name. What was taught tonight happened to be surnamed Li and Zhang. The few people who came to class were very excited, it turned out that Li Zi was written like this.

If they hadn't taken this lesson, they wouldn't even recognize their last name.

The second content is related to plants, which is the word melon and the word potato. These two words are not easy to write, and beginners are easy to write crookedly. Especially the potato characters, there are a lot of strokes, and it is easy to make people feel like giving up.

The third content is arithmetic, and the volunteers who come to the class simply teach everyone to review the content of the previous time, and then start to teach the new content.

I have to say that this literacy class is very thoughtful. For example, literacy has a pen in every seat, a desk shares an inkstone, and even ink is readily available, so that those who come to learn only need to pick up the pen and write on paper.

Although this paper is the cheapest one sold in bookstores, beginners are already very satisfied. Asking them to buy it themselves is another expense.

In addition, arithmetic is also very humane, and since simple arithmetic is being learned at this stage, there are 100 reed poles on each table. The reed poles were cut to the same size and stored in a wooden box.

When the volunteers teach arithmetic, the learners can take out the reed poles and follow along, and they will be able to understand them at once.

For example, a volunteer said, "If there is a family with seven ducks, eight geese, and nine chickens, how many live animals does this family have?" ”

Li Huaihua heard this question, and hurriedly took out the corresponding number of reed poles from the wooden box. Finally, when I counted them together, I said unconfidently: "Is it twenty-four?" ”

The volunteer happened to walk up to her, listened to her words, and thought that she was taking the initiative to answer the question, so he said appreciatively: "By the way, it's twenty-four." This little sister, you answered very well. ”

Suddenly, the eyes of the whole room looked over, which made Li Huaihua very embarrassed. However, she was surprised that she could also learn, not that she didn't know anything, and only knew that she would marry and have children.

It turns out that in addition to these, there are many different pursuits in life.

Half an hour later, at the end of the course, Li Chunju told Li Huaihua a few people: "This is nothing, according to Mr., we will be taught more complex arithmetic later, if we learn it, there is no problem to be an account office." ”

Hearing this, Li Huaihua and Li Taohua were a little excited, feeling that this arithmetic was not as difficult as they imagined. It's hard to read, let alone write. However, Li Chunju said that the first step is not to force yourself, just know each other.

When a few people walked out of the house, they were pleasantly surprised to find that the legendary street lamps had been lit.

The Square of 10,000 people is a very empty square, and at this moment, all the street lamps erected every ten meters on the square are lit up, illuminating the surroundings.

Although it is not as good as daytime, this dim light looks a little romantic at this moment. Some of the small traders are quite business-minded, and they push their stalls to sell some food here, which attracts many people to patronize them.

Speaking of which, they had not walked around like this at night, but as soon as it was dark, they closed the door and sat in the room, afraid of this and that.

In fact, darkness is just a natural phenomenon, and it has nothing to do with fear itself. How many dark stories happen at night, but the storytellers take advantage of people's fear of the dark.

After walking for a while, Li Chunju reminded a few people that the drama was about to start. In this way, several people began to line up with the tickets they had bought a long time ago.

"Ah, there are so many people here!"

"Because it's so good, everyone wants to see it."

There are not a few people like Li Chunju who came to see it for the second time. After entering the Changyin Pavilion in turn, several people bought some snacks again, and then sat quietly and watched the play.

Without any suspense, even Li Chunju was moved to tears when he came to see it for the second time, not to mention Li Huaihua.

Their emotions have been completely absorbed by the plot on stage, following the joy of the characters in it, and crying as they are sad. Especially when a big tomb appeared in the center of the platform and two butterflies flew out, they were so excited and excited that they forgot to applaud and were dumbfounded.

When I got home, lying on the bed, Li Huaihua and Li Taohua couldn't sleep for a long time. The plot just now is like a slide show in their minds at this moment, page by page, so clear, as if it is right in front of them.

At the same time, they suddenly understood why Li Chunju insisted on going to the door to withdraw from her relatives. Zhu Yingtai likes Liang Shanbo, so it has nothing to do with Ma Wencai. No matter how poor Liang Shanbo is, or how rich Marven is, Zhu Yingtai loves Liang Shanbo, that's all.

And for Li Chunju, she doesn't love that young man. Therefore, no matter what the other party is, it has nothing to do with her love.

Therefore, in the following days, when someone talked about Chunju in front of them, both of them would refute without hesitation and recommend them to go to Chenjia Village to watch this play.

A butterfly flapped its wings on one side of the globe, and a tornado erupted on the other side.

has also changed, as well as Ruan Yuping's family.

Since the opening of the noodle restaurant, business has been good, and there is a fixed amount of income every day. And with the passage of time, they have gradually mastered the rules and become more handy.

That's how to do business, slowly groping, and slowly gaining experience.

Ruan Dalang was even happier, because he went to the county every few days to pick up the kitchen waste and feed the pigs, which not only saved a lot of food and green fodder for the family, but also the pigs were also oily and smooth, and they looked very fat and strong.

And Li felt sorry for him tossing back and forth, a few days ago, he gritted his teeth and bought a cow, and went to the wood store to buy all kinds of accessories. Thinking that the road in the village was not easy to walk, he bought a few thick mats, so that the Ruan family now has an ox cart, and it is much more convenient to enter and exit the city.

When someone wants to take a ride, Ruan Dalang does not accept money, so the reputation of the Ruan family in the village is getting better and better.

In October, as the weather gradually cooled down, his family's more than one acre of long-lived fruits were about to ripen.

Watching the leaves of the longevity fruit all over the ground turn from green to yellow, and then begin to fall leaves, Ruan Yuping knew that this longevity fruit was about ripe.

After thinking about what Ye Feng said, on this day, after she came back with Ruan Dalang in an ox cart, she went directly to the field, and when she saw that there was no one around, she pulled one out with all her strength, thinking about checking it up and down, but she couldn't miss the time.

It just rained a few days ago, so it's not very dry, but it's a good place to pull peanuts. With her exertion, a whole seedling was pulled out, and the sand almost got into her eyes.

However, looking at the peanuts at the roots of the peanut seedlings, she smiled happily.

I couldn't wait to tear one off, peel it off and taste it, it was indeed cooked. The ripe longevity fruit that Ye Feng said is this taste.

After burying the soil here, Ruan Yuping threw the peanuts into the basket and hid them, and then went home and told Ruan Dalang about the harvest of long fruits.

So, the next day, the noodle shop closed.

But in order to prevent old customers from guessing, Ruan Yuping wrote another sentence "The owner is busy with farming, and it will open in five days" and pasted it on the door of the shop. In this way, even if you are illiterate, just ask others.

After studying hard, she has now learned hundreds of words.

When Ruan Dalang drove to the shop, Li and Zhang were already waiting for him at the door. And at their feet, there was a bunch of things.

The Zhang family had already considered for the Li family, this harvest of the longevity fruit was a major event, although the longevity fruit could not be given to the villagers, but it was still necessary to invite them to eat. Eating people with soft mouths and short hands is not in vain.

In this way, when I came, the ox cart was empty, and when I returned, it was full of all kinds of food, vegetables, meat, flour, and so on.

"Mother, why did you buy so many things? I feel heavy in this car. "Ruan Dalang was rushing in front of the car, and he always felt that the car was too heavy.

After buying a car, he just tried to drive for a few days in a deserted place in the village and learned it completely. Now I have mastered it very proficiently.

When Zhang heard this, he knew that he was afraid that the cow would be exhausted.

She had asked about this ox cart, and it was no problem to put hundreds of catties of goods in it. Besides, when the cow is tired, just go back and feed some good ones. She knew that Ruan Dalang would knock two eggs in the cow's mouth every half month.

That is, now that life is better, before it is about to change, Ruan Dalang is estimated to be reluctant.

"What are you afraid of, you can't crush it. Why don't you go down with your daughter-in-law and I, and you go back first in the car? "Zhang's person is like this, he likes to choke people the most, and he is the most unforgiving.

However, if you are kind to her, she will return it a hundredfold. That is what people often say, people respect me for a foot, and I respect people for a foot.

"Hey, mother, I don't dare to let your old man walk. When the villagers saw it, they didn't take me off the ox cart with a hoe. Didn't I just ask casually, it didn't mean anything else, you don't always take it to heart. ”

Zhang's is now the treasure of that shop, and that mouth is really powerful, so I don't dare to offend.

Li smiled and said, "You deserve to be deflated." If it weren't for my mother's help in the past few months, would we be able to have today? Didn't you say that this time you went back to reap the fruits of longevity? It's expensive, so you can't give it to someone at will. But if you don't give anything, it's not good. Therefore, we planned to hold a banquet in the village, and at the banquet, we would use this longevity fruit to make a dish for everyone to taste. ”

"Then you have to hide all the longevity fruits before cooking!" Ruan Dalang hurriedly said. He'd heard that it was delicious to make a vegetable thief. If the villagers still want to eat after eating, then this family may not want to be quiet.

"I still need to say that we have all thought about it, and as soon as the longevity fruit is harvested and washed, we will send it to the shop in the city to dry. As for the family, just leave a few catties. We didn't plan to make any big dishes, but we just chopped up the longevity fruit and made a bowl of noodles for everyone to try. ”

This was still the trick that Ye Feng gave them when they went to Chenjia Village to ask when the longevity fruit was ripe and how to store it.

After all, this longevity fruit has not yet been dried, and what can be eaten is limited. And even if it's dried, it's a luxury to cook it. After all, there are only so many long-lived fruits that can be produced in one acre of land, not very many.

In the blink of an eye, I arrived at home and unloaded all my things. After a brief lunch, everyone carried the basket, picked the bamboo basket, and walked to the field.

At this time, the people who eat late are still cooking, and those who eat early are resting in the house, so basically no one comes out.

Ruan Yuping first demonstrated how to pull out the longevity fruit, and then plucked the extracted longevity fruit from the needle one by one and threw it into the bamboo basket.

When everyone saw that it was so simple, they all began to pull it up.

If you do other farm work, it is always monotonous and boring. But harvesting the fruit is different, it is simple and fast, and several people are doing this work for the first time, not only do they not feel tired, but they also feel very novel.

Moreover, whenever a basket and a load were filled, Ruan Dalang and Li would pick up a load and carry a basket on their backs, pour them into the big bamboo basket in the hall and put them, lock the door and then come out.

In this way, I ran again and again, and by the time it was time to make dinner, there was about a point left. It's just that the speed of a few people has accelerated even more, because since the afternoon, people have been passing by one after another, and they will all come to see a few times, taste a few before leaving.

It was also the first time they had seen the fruit of immortality, especially in the ground.

Gong and He also came a long time ago.

Fortunately, after satisfying his curiosity, he began to help the Li family harvest the fruit wholeheartedly. But Gong can be called eating all the time. It's just that I was really embarrassed by Zhang's eyes later, so I began to follow everyone to do it in a decent way and help harvest the longevity fruit.

It's just that his eyes are rolling and he doesn't know what he's thinking.

There are many people and great strength, and they finally harvested all the immortal fruits of this field before dark. He and Gong used the excuse of helping to carry a basket of immortal fruits to the Li family's house, but they followed them home.

It's just that neither of them left empty-handed. The kind-hearted Li found two dustpans of similar size, and one of them filled a dustpan with about ten catties of longevity fruit for them to bring back.

Before going out, Li also said: "Brother and sister, this is a little bit of my heart and your eldest brother, you take it back to the family to taste, don't take it out to outsiders." Also, there are plenty of longevity fruits in the field, and you can find them tomorrow morning by digging the ground with your hoe. ”

Hearing this, the two went back happily.

It's just that Ruan Yuping is a little unhappy and doesn't know how to evaluate these two people. Relatives are supposed to take care of each other, but since she can remember, it was her family who took care of other people, and others never took care of them.

Moreover, at the critical moment, she gave her father a bad idea and wanted to sell her second sister, can such a relative still be considered a relative?

And at last they gave the family twenty taels of silver for nothing. This kind of good deed, if it is disposed of, their family may not be able to get it.

That night, the Li family mobilized again, taking advantage of the night to put the longevity fruit in several wooden basins, Ruan Dalang and the Li family went to the well to pick up water countless times, tired for most of the night, and finally washed all the longevity fruits and temporarily dried them on the bamboo mat in the backyard.

Since opening the shop and making money, the Ruan family has pushed down the old and dilapidated house and built a new magnificent courtyard. The backyard is large and separated from the front, which is very suitable for drying grain.

Early the next morning, Gong and He took their families to the field with hoes. Don't think about it, you must have turned peanuts.

Li and Ruan Dalang didn't go, but Zhang and Ruan Yuping did.

If you want to put it aside, the little daughter-in-law is unwilling to do such a thing. However, since Gong took the lead in going down to the ground, the villagers who passed by have joined the ranks. Those who have a hoe use a hoe, and those who do not have a hoe use a stick to plan, and even follow others to pick up leaks.

All in all, the land has experienced unprecedented liveliness.

It's just that these people don't have any rules at all, and often this person has just turned over the ground, and that person steps on it. In the evening, when Ruan Dalang went to check on the field again, he was simply taken aback.

Where is this turning the ground, this is simply digging indiscriminately.

Anyway, the whole piece of land was trampled in a mess, and he had to turn it over again.

But it doesn't matter, now that I have cattle at home, it's convenient. After discussing with the Li family, he plans to plant some cabbage, ginger, onions, garlic and the like, and save the old time to go to the vegetable market to buy them, at least buy a little less.

Zhang's is the most powerful, after all, with Ruan Yuping's help, it is equivalent to two people flipping, and they went early, and when they weighed it at night, they actually had more than three catties. Gong's and He's are not bad, one of them has about two catties of softness.

As for others, they range from one catty, half a catty, a few taels or even dozens of pieces.

Originally, this was just for fun, not for anything else. Like Gong, who went to make a fortune, there are almost none.

However, Gong is a smart woman, and she didn't give any of the ten catties of longevity fruit that Li gave her to her child, and today she got two catties, which were still washed and taken to the roof to dry.

However, when he turned his back, he supported the child to go to the second elder of the Ruan family to ask for food. Ruan Dalang is famous for his filial piety, and the second elder of the Ruan family must be indispensable there.

Three days later, Ruan Dalang's family drove into the city again in an ox cart and transferred all the half-dried longevity fruits to the shop, where they were left to dry, and the shop would not be opened for a few days anyway.

When they returned, the family began to prepare for a treat.

They don't have to worry about cooking at all, and they still ask the Yaya Township Chef of Chenjia Village to help. Now, the duck duck country kitchen has completely made a name for itself, and there are many dishes.

It's just that this person has changed a lot, and basically all the relatives in Chenjia Village are doing it. As for the original veterans of the Yaya Township Kitchen, they have long had their own shops in the commercial street, but they are just helping behind the scenes, and they are just taking a cut according to the shares.
