Shen Xue Ning looked at the grass and thought: "Then we can throw the grass onto Niushan Mountain and let them eat it tomorrow."

"Okay." Uncle Niu bent down and carried a lot of grass to go up Niu Mountain.

For the next period of time, Niu Ye was transporting grass here, but he was too small to do anything by himself, and he ran many times, but the pile of grass did not decrease.

Later, everyone helped to move the grass, and finally all the grass was put on Niu Mountain.

Shen Xue Ning was so tired that she was out of breath. "This much grass will take the cattle several days to eat."

At 6:30 in the afternoon, Shen Xue Ning announced that it was time to go home.

The villagers had not mowed grass like this for a long time. They were so tired that their waists ached. They rubbed their waists and went home. They mowed half of the mountain today, and they would finish the work with another day tomorrow.

Shen Xuening went to the cowshed and helped herd the cattle.

When going to the mountains to drive the cattle, Shen Xuening played music in the cowshed using a speaker. Later, the cattle got used to the music and would run back on their own when they heard it, so they no longer had to be driven away.

Uncle Niu thought Shen Xue Ning’s idea was good. It turned out that young people’s brains were more useful.

They drove the cattle back, put some sweet potatoes in the trough, put water in the trough, watched the cattle eat and drink their fill, then they locked the door and left.

……

When Shen Xue Ning returned home, she heard the barking of a puppy: "Did you buy a puppy?"

Liu Juan said: "Your grandma sent it to us."

Shen Xue Ning touched the puppy. It was completely black except for a tuft of white hair on its head. The puppy was just one month old, chubby and very lively. "From grandma's?"

Liu Juan said: "My grandma has an old dog that she has raised for ten years. This puppy is the offspring of that dog."

Looking at the puppy, Shen Xue Ning wanted to buy two Border Collies, one to help her look after the cattle, and the other to guard the cattle at night. She was always worried because there was no one in the cowshed at night.

The next day, Shen Xue Ning arranged her household affairs and went to the county town, where she bought two Border Collies.

The Border Collie is very small, only one month old, and is still breastfeeding, but the owner feels that there are too many dogs at home and the puppy can now be raised, so he sells it.

Shen Xue Ning put the Border Collie in the cowshed: "From now on, this is your home, and the cows here are yours to herd and protect. You are all smart dogs, and you must remember your mission."

The two Border Collies squatted in front of Shen Xuening and listened to her lecture obediently.

Seeing that they were so well-behaved, Shen Xue Ning gave them some spiritual spring water.

When the two Border Collies saw the spiritual spring water, they rushed over to drink it as if they were very thirsty, and did not stop until they had finished drinking it.

Shen Xue Ning touched the two dogs' heads and said, "I have to make a doghouse for you."

I'll give you some boards to make.

Shen Xuening rode her electric bike to the market and bought two pieces of wood, half a centimeter thick. She put the wood on the ground, drew lines on it, and then cut according to the lines.

There are all the carpentry tools at home, so Shen Xue Ning just uses them.

Cut the wood, take it to the cowshed, and use hot melt glue and nails to assemble the wooden boards to form the shape of a house, so that it will not be afraid of wind and rain.

Shen Xuening placed the dog kennels at the entrance of the cowshed, one on the left and one on the right, and then put two old clothes in the dog kennels, and that was it.

The two puppies ran to the same kennel, as if they were not used to living apart from their mother.

Shen Xue Ning did not force them to separate. She let them adapt for a while and then put four iron basins, two food bowls and two water bowls, for each dog to use.

Liu Juan brought some milk to Shen Xue Ning: "Little puppy, how about this?"

Shen Xuening took the milk and called the two dogs out: "Left, right, and right, come out and drink milk."

The two Border Collies were smart to begin with, and they became even smarter after drinking the spiritual spring water. As soon as Shen Xue Ning spoke, they ran out. They were chubby and walked with a limp, which was very cute.

Shen Xue Ning poured the milk into the basin: "Drink the milk obediently."

The two Border Collies ran to the bowl and licked the milk quickly.

Liu Juan touched Zuo Zuo's head and said, "The two dogs you bought look different from ordinary dogs."

Shen Xuening explained: "They are Border Collies. I bought them specifically to help me herd cattle."

Liu Juan didn't know much about this and sounded surprised: "Are they so smart?"

Shen Xue Ning tapped Youyou's ear and said, "When you grow up, your IQ will be comparable to that of a seven or eight-year-old child. Herding cattle will be easy for them."

"They are so smart." Liu Juan liked the two puppies more and more. "Take good care of them and make them smarter."

"Yeah." Shen Xue Ning settled the two puppies down and went to cut grass again. If she persisted for another half a day, all the grass on the mountain would be cut.

After the grass is cut, it is placed on the cattle hill. The cows will eat the grass and there is no need to deal with it again, which saves a lot of trouble.

By the evening, the grass on the entire mountain had been cut. From a distance, it looked like the mountain had been shaved bald.

Shen Xuening immediately calculated the wages for everyone, and everyone took the money and went home happily.

Grandma Shen and Grandpa Shen also calculated the wages, but the two refused to take them. They felt that it was too strange for a family to ask for money, so they insisted on not taking it.

Shen Xuening didn't give them any money, but bought a set of clothes for each of the two elders. The two were quite happy.

……

Liu Juan and Shen Dong went out mysteriously.

Shen Xue Ning looked at them and asked Shen Yingying: "Where are mom and dad going? If they were going to work, they wouldn't be dressed so neatly."

Shen Yingying shook her head: "I don't know either, but there must be something wrong."

Shen Xue Ning thought for a moment and said, "Forget it, let's just do our own thing, let's go."

Liu Juan and Shen Dong naturally had something to do, so they took the five thousand yuan to return to their aunt.

It has been five years since they borrowed the money from their aunt, and it is time to pay it back. Now that they have finally managed to scrape together 5,000 yuan from selling vegetables, the two of them just want to pay it back quickly.

When the two went to exchange money, the aunt was very happy and gave them some peaches, which were grown on her own fruit trees. They ate some, and there were still some left on the tree. They were all natural and pollution-free.

The two of them came back with peaches, washed them immediately, and brought Shen Xuening, Shen Yingying, and Shen Wenxu back to eat.

Liu Juan gave the biggest peach to Shen Xue Ning: "Ning Ning, eat this."

Shen Xue Ning took it reflexively, but handed it to Shen Wenxu: "Wenxu, give this to you."

Liu Juan quickly stopped Shen Wenxu and said, "Give that to my elder sister, and you can eat the rest."

"Yes." Shen Wenxu agreed obediently.

Shen Xuening smiled and didn't ask for any more peaches. She took a bite and it was crispy, with the aroma of peach and slightly sweet. It was okay: How about planting some peach trees on the mountain in autumn?

Sure, sure. When the time comes, I’ll pick a good kind of peach to plant.

While eating, a voice came from the yard, and Shen Xue Ning came over: "Grandma, what's the matter with you?"
