Saying that, Gong Changyu held the fish basket in both hands and handed it over, Dai Mingshi took the fish basket, his eyes immediately lit up, and he smiled: "Little man, not bad, not bad." ”

"Uncle, you have such good eyesight." Gong Changyu thought that the landlord Lao Cai wanted to buy his loach, and rubbed his hands vigorously, "How much copper is this loach worth?" ”

Unexpectedly, the landlord Lao Cai's face suddenly sank, and he looked vicious: "Gong Laoxue, do you know what is wrong?" ”

Gong Changyu was still in the dark, raised his eyes and asked, "What's wrong with me?" ”

Dai Mingshi slapped Gong Changyu, who was as tall as his eyes, with two crisp and loud slaps: "Open your dog's eyes and see, this is my family's paddy field!" The loaches in the field are my private property, and I want to keep them to eat insects, but you are not allowed to catch them! ”

When Gong Chang met him, he had already grown into a round arm and thick arms, much stronger than his peers, and he really wanted to knock the landlord into the paddy field with one punch. Although he was slapped so that his eyes were full of stars, there were many people on the other side, and there was a knife in his hand, so he had to endure it, but his fists were clenched.

Dai Mingshi roared: "Oh, boy, do you still want to fight back? With that, he ordered the servant to dump all the loaches back into the paddy field and smash the two fish baskets fiercely.

Zhu Rongsen was so frightened that he hugged Gong Changyu's waist and cried: "Big brother, our loaches are gone-"

A servant with a red fetus on his face and another with mouse eyes raised a knife in front of the two little ones, and the birthmark man said, "If you cry again, I will kill you two!" Then he whistled and walked away.

Gong Changyu hugged his little cousin: "Don't cry, when the old brother becomes a general in the future, they must pay it back!" ”

"Landlord Lao Cai, you remember it for me! When the time comes, I will kill all the pigs in your house, stew them in a large pot and make soup to drink. Gong Changyu yelled at Dai Mingshi who was far away, of course, Dai Mingshi couldn't hear his angry voice. In the future, the tyrannical rich man Dai paid a heavy price for this, and Gong Changyu taught him a good lesson in the same way.

Since being humiliated by Dai Mingshi and his gang in the paddy field, Gong Changyu has not gone to the field to catch loaches for half a month, only cares about collecting firewood like a gourd, three loads of firewood a day, and finishes work early. There were obviously fewer words, and his uncle asked him why something had happened, but he didn't answer, just smiled, and he just knew his suffering......

Half a year later, it's the farming season again. In order to cultivate Gong Changyu's independent living ability and hard-working spirit, the second young grandmother Lan Ping insisted that he and the farmers who came to the Zhujia compound to do short-term work go to the field to plant seedlings, so he had a dispute with the young owner Qi room, who had always regarded Gong Changyu as a "son".

Shaodong was lying on the chair covered with bear skin, and said with half-closed eyes: "Lao Xue, my sister-in-law specially sent me to learn martial arts, not to do hard labor for us, otherwise he will have a feeling of being under the fence." It's not good to say it, ma'am? ”

"If you want to be noble in front of others, you must suffer from behind." Lan Ping sat on the Taishi chair and gently shook the small round fan, "Husband, do you know what it means to be persevering and endure humiliation?" ”

"Yes. Lao Zhu's family can be rich, relying on this family style inheritance. Anyone who has achieved great things has suffered a lot, but now that our family is well-off, the children don't have to do those menial manual work at all. Kai Room held the round handle on the chair with both hands.

"No more than three generations of rich. From an early age, children are accustomed to living a pampered life, and it is not necessarily a good thing to not know the difficulties of crops. Originally, there was no distinction between high and low in manual work, but people subconsciously thought that the peasants were inferior and disdained to farm. Lan Ping pointed to the couplet on the left side of the shrine and said, "Teaching children and grandchildren to read and plow, and if you don't want to study, you have to go to the fields to work." ”

"Lan Ping, Lao Xue and I are not related by blood, but he is your own nephew, call me uncle. Since I was four years old, I have been thinking about Shiyun, and my husband is in charge of the world, not the fields. Kai didn't agree with anything.

"The old school goes up to the mountain to fetch firewood, and goes down to the field to catch loaches is to run the world?" Lan Ping asked rhetorically.

"Exactly. Chopping wood can practice knife and eye techniques, which helps to increase his physical fitness, and he is voluntary, not the same. The mud legs are mixed together, and they are not in a proper manner, which damages the image of my old Zhu family, so it's better not to let him go to plant seedlings. Kai Room spun the small steel ball with one hand and pulled the bear skin with the other.

"Chopping wood is to increase endurance and physical strength, and planting rice is lowly work, what kind of fallacy and heresy?" Lan Ping put down the small round fan, "If you can't do it, you have to do it, Lao Xue is my nephew, so you have to listen to me!" ”

"Lanping, since you insist on letting Lao Xue work with the short-term workers, then Rongsen also has to go together." Kai stood up.

"Rong Sen is the son of Sister Yinyue, I don't dare to make decisions on my own, I have to talk to her." Lan Ping smiled slightly.

"No need." The opening room waved his hand.

"Shaodong, Rong Sen has never done farm work, and I can't guarantee that there won't be any mistakes." Lan Ping was a little worried that Rong Sen would not be able to bear it.

"It's okay, Rongsen was barefoot in the field catching loaches last winter, and his body is great!" Kai Room was finally persuaded by Lan Ping.

"It's also oh, the temperature is lower in winter, and now it's the Mango Festival." Lan Ping nodded slightly.

"Well, Mr. Private School is going back to take care of his farmland, and he has a few days off vacation, and Lao Xue also has a companion." The room was lit with a tube of dry tobacco.

"It's decided, let Lao Xue and Rongsen go to Lime Rush ...... tomorrow"

At this time, Rong Sen had already returned from school in the private school, and had just arrived outside the door, when he heard that Erniang wanted him to go to Lime Chong with Lao Xue, he was so happy that he ran into the hall and kissed Lan Ping lightly on the forehead: "Thank you Erniang, I can go to Lime Chong to play again." ”

"Sen'er, it's not to play, it's to plant seedlings!" Lan Ping patted the dust on Rong Sen's body.

"Erniang, I don't know how to plant seedlings, so I still won't go!" Rong Sen put the bookcase down, his face embarrassed.

"I don't know how to plant rice, so I have to go." Kaimuro glared at Rong Sen.

"Daddy, the kid understands." Rong Sen sat down, took out pen, ink, paper, inkstone, and began to practice calligraphy.

Just after writing a piece of paper, a voice came from outside the hall.

"Auntie, I'm back!" Gong Changyu stood in the center of the patio with a load of firewood.

"Lao Xue, I came back so early today...... Lan Ping came out with a big bowl of cold sweet wine, "Lao Xue, you forgot to bring your dry food, are you hungry?" ”

"Auntie, I'm not hungry, just a little thirsty." Gong Changyu wiped the dust on his face.

"Then drink this sweet wine glutinous rice ball." Lan Ping said.

Gong Changyu put down the firewood, took the big bowl with both hands, drank it all the way, licked the bottom of the bowl, and couldn't get enough: "It's so sweet." Auntie, is there anything else? ”

"It's gone." Lan Ping said with a smile.

"Auntie, today I caught two pheasants in the mountain forest, roasted one to eat, and there is another one here, for you." Gong Changyu took down a pheasant from the firewood that was still struggling desperately.

Lan Ping couldn't help but be surprised: "Old learner, pheasants run so fast and can fly, how did you catch them?" ”

"After I finished chopping wood, I heard the cooing of pheasants nearby, and I remembered that I had put a bamboo jacket on the mountain yesterday, so I sharpened a bamboo javelin and quietly walked to the place where the sleeve was set up. Luck was too good, there was a pheasant hanging upside down on the bamboo cover, and there were actually two or three pheasants with different coats and colors circling around the bamboo cover, refusing to leave for a long time. As soon as I went over with my javelin, I hit the ...... on the ground," Gong Changyu said excitedly.

"Oh, old learner, you're fast." Lan Ping was about to go to the kitchen with the pheasant.

"Auntie, stew, or stir-fry?" Gong Changyu asked.

"Pluck the feathers first." Lan Ping smiled and left.

Rong Sen, who was practicing calligraphy, was fascinated by what he heard, and he didn't care that Qi Room was watching from the side, so he dropped the brush and ran out: "Big brother, you are so good, you have captured one pheasant alive." ”

"It's a pity that two of them flew ......away," Gong Changyu said with regret.

"Big brother, Erniang said that the two of us will go to lime to plant rice tomorrow, will you go?" Rong Sen took Gong Changyu's hand and said.

"Lime Chong? It's very close to the severed head, go, there are turtles in the stream there, we can get a few after we finish planting seedlings. Gong Changyu replied happily.

"Big brother, I don't want to ......" Rong Sen shook his head.

"Why not?" Gong Changyu tastes.

"I'm afraid of that landlord's old wealth." Rong Sen approached Gong Changyu and whispered.

"Brother Sen, don't be afraid. Tomorrow we will carry a saber on our backs and stick it on the ridge. When the landlord Lao Cai comes, I will cut off his hand with a knife! Gong Changyu comforted Rong Sendao.

"Big brother, I can't carry the saber."

"You don't have to carry it."

"Oh, what am I going to do?"

"You can watch the wind in charge, and I'll just cut people."

"Big brother, if there are too many of them, what should we do?"

"Brother Rongsen, don't we have muskets at home?"

"That's right. But you can't just take the musket. ”

"If you ask your mother if you want one, you can get one."

"My mother said that children can't play with muskets, and if they go off, they will die."

"Okay. In case my mother doesn't give it, I'll go to Uncle Bao. ”

"Well, that's it." ……

The next day, the two brothers Gong Changyu and Rong Sen had breakfast, carried a fish basket, hid the saber and musket in their clothes, and followed a dozen day laborers to Lime Chong.

As soon as he arrived at the mouth of Lime Chong, Zhu Rongsen saw from a distance the servant who had scared the two of them with a big knife last year and a group of people planting rice in the paddy field opposite. The servant sat in the shade of a tree, yawning and smoking a hookah.

"Big brother, that guy is here again, should we go to take revenge?" Jungsen asked.

"What's the hurry? Let's not cause trouble yet, but teach them a lesson, and then talk about it after we have planted the seedlings. Gong Changyu touched the musket on his waist, "Let's go, go to the field and work." ”

"Big brother, there are so many locusts in this field, I really don't dare to come down." Rong Sen stood on the ridge of the field, looking at the grasshoppers swimming in the water from time to time, some of them almost as thick as his little finger, and he was a little frightened.
