The sun rose little by little, and a large locust tree at the entrance of the village seemed to be slowly covered with a thick layer of golden light.

There are few people in the countryside for ten miles, and they chew fine tea with a clear spring in their hands.

This is a very ordinary small village in the north, with rows of low thatched huts and the barking of chickens and dogs...... Sneaking into the night with the wind and the drizzle silently, these seemingly ordinary bits and pieces gather together, invisibly decorating this scenic small village as if it were a dustless paradise.

Several children gathered around the stone mill under the big locust tree, and one of them, the oldest and strongest boy, pushed the stone mill in a circle, and the white pulp like a curtain of water seeped down from under the stone mill, first in the annular groove, and then through the leak into a large wooden barrel below...... At the same time, two children were squatting next to the barrel, pulling a piece of homespun cloth, filtering something...... There is a specialization in the art industry, although the three children are busy, a thin child like a bean sprout sits on the side and only cares about looking down and reading.

A breeze blows gently, the children who work are all hands and feet, the children who read are concentrated, and several children are matched together, but it is also a happy scenery of the countryside and mountain villages!

"Iron Bull, work harder, the sun has already risen to the treetops! Maybe in a few moments the families of the refugees who have been sleeping in the mountains and fields all night will appear!" said a child who was straining the slurry and looked up at the sky and said to the boy pushing the stone grinder.

"Got it!" The young man named Tie Niu wiped the sweat on his forehead with his cuffs, and said to the child sitting next to him who was just looking down and reading a book: "Bean sprouts, don't read a book now and be silent True gentleman! I'm already busy hitting the back of my head here, so hurry up and come over to help!"

"What are you anxious about? Sir kept telling us that everyone should sweep the snow in front of the door...... It's not my turn to sweep the snow at the door of my house yet!After the copper lock and iron egg have filtered the pulp, I will naturally go to make a fire and cook the pulp!" Although Tie Niu was anxious, he didn't expect that the reading boy named Bean Sprouts didn't raise his head and said, "There is a golden house in the book...... Well, it seems that there is still Yan Ruyu...... I'm thinking about the Golden House and Yan Ruyu right now! Don't bother me, okay?"

"I don't know who swept the snow in front of the door...... But why am I the only one pushing the mills! The gentleman keeps telling us that money can make the devil grind! Why have I been pushing the stone mill for so many days...... But I didn't even see a copper plate!" Tie Niu rolled his eyes, helpless, since he couldn't move the little bean sprouts, he could only lower his head and concentrate on grinding in the end!

"Huh, it seems to be coming! I seem to hear the sound of horses' hooves in the distance!" the brass lock, who was squatting together on the side of the barrel, suddenly pricked up his ears, and after listening for a while, he said to Tie Dan: "Now lie on the ground and listen! Alas, the gentleman always tells us not to do unto others as you would have them do unto you...... I'd better lie on the ground and listen to it myself!"

"Quick, you two don't lie on the ground! It's important to get to work quickly! After straining the pulp, the bean sprouts can make a fire and cook the pulp!" said Tie Niu hurriedly.

"Don't worry, the people who fled naturally came from the south to the north...... And now the sound of horses' hooves is clearly from north to south...... Our soy milk is only given to those who have fled, and as for other pedestrians, it has nothing to do with us!" Although the three working children were panicked, they didn't expect the bean sprouts to be still unmoved, but they just said lightly: "Besides, those people who fled from the south are all bringing their families and horses...... I can only hear the creaking of the wheels, but I never make such an unhurried sound of horses' hooves!"

"......" Tie Niu looked at each other for a while...... In the end, I could only shake my head and smile bitterly!

Oh my God! What is this! How can it be in such an ordinary little village...... There is also a little detective who likes to read and think!

......

"Huh, what are those children at the head of the village busy with?" Wu Guo and the others slowly rode their horses from north to south, and Cai Suzhen saw this strange scene in front of the village from a distance, and couldn't help but ask curiously.

"......" Wu Guo sat on the horse and watched for a while, and he was a little confused for a while, his eyes flickered, but he was thoughtful.

"But I know this! Those children are grinding beans! They are either making soy milk or tofu now! Oops! Speaking of which, children nowadays are really amazing! At such a young age, they know how to help the adults in the family! Sure enough, the children of the poor are in charge of the house!" As the general manager of life who has been harming people for more than ten years, Miao Yiyi is naturally well-informed, and smiled lightly: "If you are not afraid of not knowing the goods, you are afraid of comparing the goods...... When our Young Master Guo was as old as them...... Every day, he stupidly takes the bad guy Ye to hang out outside!Well, it's just a matter of hanging out, the problem is that he is tired and thirsty from wandering outside, and when he gets home, he asks me for soy milk to drink!"

"No, no, look at the faces and clothes of these children...... They are obviously not a family! If they are helping the adults in the family grind soy milk...... Although the beans poured into the stone mill are known to belong to them, the soy milk that has been ground out has flowed into a large wooden barrel...... How will this be divided in the end? Is half a pound of beans exchanged for eight taels of soybean milk? As for making tofu, it is even more impossible...... There's no way to divide it at all!" After being exposed again, Wu Guo rolled his eyes angrily and said: "But there is nothing difficult in the world, I am afraid that there are people with hearts! There is still a way to solve this problem! Although the soy milk that was ground out in the end is not clear whether it is your family and mine...... But the copper plates will definitely be able to be clearly divided in the end! So, there is only one possibility for them to work together so much now! Good fellows, although these little ones are young, they even know that they have set up stalls at the intersection to make money! Don't you see that there are two tables next to the stone mills...... There are some big bowls on the table!"

"......" Cai Suzhen blinked his eyes wide, and said in disbelief: "No, right? You have always been so poor that you jingle loudly...... But don't deliberately bury other people, okay? Maybe they're having fun together now...... Well, maybe they like to help others...... In the summer, maybe they're making some soy milk for passers-by! How do you know they're going to ask you for a few copper plates?"

"First of all, they're definitely not playing around...... Ahem, if country children play together...... They will definitely play some game of marching and fighting in this pretend to be a general and that one pretending to be a thief...... But they don't know how to grind beans and play together......" In the face of his daughter-in-law's behavior of raising the bar, Wu Guo was already surprised, and said in his chest: "Bustling, profitable...... You can see that they have a clear division of labor and a complete range of guys, which shows that they have been doing this business at the head of the village...... Of course, they may also be some people who have loved to help others since childhood...... But there is a limit to the pleasure of helping others! Just like marrying a daughter-in-law, after a day or two of freshness has passed, it will definitely slowly become listless, like chewing wax...... Oh, daughter-in-law, don't pinch me! I said something wrong...... Hehe, sometimes helping others is like Wang Xiaoer's New Year...... That's not as good as a year!"

"......" Cai Suzhen was speechless for a while, and unconsciously turned her eyes to Miao Yiyi, and silently asked for help: "Sister Yiyi, I can't say that I am a little bad guy!

"There is some truth in what Guo'er said...... If you want people to persevere, there is only one profitable path in the world......" Miao Yiyi frowned and thought for a long time, and suddenly her eyes lit up and said: "But there will still be exceptions! You see that there is a child next to him who has been immersed in reading! Well, maybe these children have liked to read sages since they were children...... Treat money like dung...... That's why I'll always be happy to help others!"

"Oops......! Open your mouth, you will know if there is one! Sister Yiyi's sentence is to the point!" Wu Guo sat on the horse and patted his thigh with a smile and said, "The problem is that children are not born to read sage books...... There must be a gentleman who taught them little by little! Again, the power of example is endless! They are now working so tirelessly to help others...... It's because they have a good role model around them, good sir!"

"Good example? No, a good example is not the point...... The point is...... Good sir?" The words woke up the person in the dream, Miao Yiyi immediately woke up, involuntarily stretched her neck and looked around for a while, and there was an indescribable surprise in her heart: "Yes......! But someone must teach them the truth first! Could it be that this time he has stepped through the iron shoes and found nowhere to go, and it takes no effort to get there? That bad guy has been hiding incognito in this picturesque little village for the past few years?"
