"Do you have to be so clear?" A little shadow appeared in Su Heting's eyes.

"Or else?" Yuan Ning asked rhetorically, "Do you want me to accept your assistance as a matter of course?"

"Su Heting, you must know that people have inferior roots, if you blindly pay unconditionally, after a long time, I, my younger brothers and sisters, and everyone around me will think that you should help us.

"If one day, you don't come to help, you are transferred, or for some reason you can't help anymore, everyone, including me, will naturally think that you have taken what belongs to us!

"If you don't help someone else, if you help someone else, we will think that the person has taken what we have, and we will become hostile to them."

Su Heting moved his lips, and wanted to say, if it doesn't exist, I will always help like this, take care of you, take care of you.

But before he could say it, Yuan Ning waved his hand and continued: "This is the inferior nature of people. No matter what other people do, I don't want to be like that.

"You also know that the reason why I am planning to dissociate myself from the Zhu family of Xiaozhangzhuang is that I want to grow up with my younger brothers and sisters without any ties, relying on my own strength.

"You can see what I can do. If I can do something, why should I rely on others?

"A person's ability is stronger and stronger the more he exercises, just like the flowers and plants raised in the greenhouse are never as vigorous as the wild grasses in the wilderness.

"So, even though I know you're doing it all for our kindness, I can't accept it all. Unless, you promise to barter.

"In other words, I trade my skills for your help, and I need for your needs."

Su Heting sighed softly, such a girl, cute and stubborn, it is really unacceptable, "Okay, what you said is very reasonable, I can't refute it." ”

Yuan Ning smiled: "That's right!" So, we will cooperate happily in the future? She held out a hand.

This hand is already a little white because of the attention to maintenance, but because of the work all day long, it is still very rough, and the hands of those carefully maintained girls in the boudoir are completely different.

Su Heting did not hesitate to put his hand on it, "Okay, happy cooperation!" ”

The palms of both of them are warm, and when they meet together, it seems to have infinite strength.

The two looked at each other and smiled, Yuan Ning blew out the candle, and the two walked out side by side.

Bo Zhong trotted over and looked up at the tall Su Heting, "Brother Su, you haven't been here for a while!" ”

Su Heting touched his head, "I've been a little busy lately." ”

Bo Zhong gave up his place to Su Heting, dragged a cushion over and sat between him and his sister, and then told Su Heting how to peel corn husks would be more labor-saving.

Su Heting got started quickly, and his work efficiency was also very high, and he barely had a large piece in after a while.

Bo Zhong's hands were sour, and he was very greedy, "Is it that smart people like you learn everything so quickly and do everything so well?" ”

Su Heting couldn't help but laugh and said: "Little fool, Brother Su is an adult, and his work is naturally much more profitable than that of a child." ”

Yuan Ning saw that the hour was not early, so he bombarded his younger brothers and sisters to sleep, "If it's too late, Ming'er won't be able to get up." ”

Bo Zhong got up and called his younger brothers and sisters to follow Aunt Zhang to wash up and sleep.

The only ones who peeled the corn were Sister-in-law Liu, Yuan Ning, and Su Heting.

Sister-in-law Liu was separated from them by a high mountain of corn, and they couldn't be seen at all.

Su Heting moved his cushion to Yuan Ning's side, and asked softly, "What did I ask Fang Yan to tell you before......

"He didn't tell you when he went back?" Yuan Ning was surprised, "I agreed!" After this batch of corn is harvested...... You help find a larger warehouse, which is clean, dry, and free of rats.

"Let's do a screening, keep the selected seeds and bag them, and I'll get the rest back!"

"Okay," Su Heting nodded in agreement, in fact, let him find a topic to talk about for a while, he really didn't know what to say, and he just didn't know where to start, so he had to repeat the old words, "This is no problem, I'll arrange it." ”

Yuan Ning peeled a few corns and asked, "There is still no news from Yu Gongzi?" ”

"Yes," Su Heting perked up, yes, why didn't he think of this ready-made topic, "I only received a letter from him yesterday, saying that he estimated that a batch of goods would come back in a few days, so I should pay attention to it." ”

Yuan Ning glanced at him, "Are you sure what he said is the same thing as what you said?" ”

"Yes," Su Heting chuckled, "Don't look at Jing Ze, who has too heavy merchant habits, as if he is mercenary, in fact, he attaches great importance to righteousness, and he will definitely do what he promised me."

"When things arrive, can they be planted next year? I'm afraid it's too late this year, right? ”

"Well," Yuan Ning nodded, "at present, the only wheat that can be sown in autumn can survive the winter." Hey, by the way, didn't anyone grow sunflowers here? ”

"What kind of flower is that?" Su Heting asked, "You mean hollyhock?" ”

"No, no," Yuan Ning shook his head with a smile, "It has nothing to do with hollyhock, it's just ...... It resembles melon seeds, but the shape is slightly different. ”

Most of the melon seeds they eat now are watermelon seeds, and there are a lot of pumpkin seeds.

Yuan Ning stopped, drew the general shape of the sunflower on the ground, and briefly described it.

Su Heting shook his head very affirmatively, "I haven't seen it before, but I've seen similar flowers in the wild, and the fruit is somewhat similar to the fruit you said, but it's not the same."

"They mainly grow underground stems, which can be dug up and eaten, and they taste good."

Yuan Ning smiled, "In this case, you can ask your friend Yu Gongzi to help you pay attention to it, if you find this kind of sunflower, you can transport it back in large quantities, sunflower seeds are not only a very good raw material for oil extraction, but also can be fried and eaten as melon seeds." ”

Su Heting nodded, keeping this matter in mind, "I also plan to let people plant some rape in the coming year, I pondered, every household has to eat oil, so rapeseed oil must not be sold." ”

"This is a good idea," Yuan Ning agreed, but unfortunately there are no cameras and lack of media in this era, otherwise, it will definitely become a good classic, Internet celebrity check-in place, "It can be implemented." ”

Aunt Zhang came out of the house and saw that they were talking, so she automatically walked to Sister-in-law Liu and sat down, and began to work silently.

Relaxed time always passes quickly, when Su Heting heard Yuan Ning sneez, he realized that it was already late, although he was reluctant, he still got up and said goodbye, "If it's okay tomorrow, I'll come again." ”

Yuan Ning hurriedly waved his hand, "That's it, you are the county master, I don't know how many things to be busy with, you also saw it, there are many people in our family, and we can't afford to spend this bit of work." ”
