Crossing the green wheat ears

Summer is coming soon, the weather is very hot, the work in the field has basically been done, and the rest is nothing to go to the fields to look around. Some strong laborers in the village can’t stay at home, and those who have connections go out through acquaintances Find some odd jobs and earn some money.

Xi Mingwen and his wife went out at this time the year before last, but now the life at home is getting better and better, and Xiyuan doesn't want his parents to be humbled by others and make people yell around to make small money, so he firmly opposes them going out to work for others What.

But this year, even if Xiyuan doesn't object, they won't be able to go out. There are so many materials for building a house in the house at home. Although I think it is unlikely that someone will steal these things, I still have to take a look, just in case. What about the blind thief.In addition, now that the weather is hot, it is not enough to go to Yansui City to deliver food once every three days like before, but to deliver food every day, so the family cannot do without people at all.

Some time ago, the family was busy preparing materials, and Xiyuan delivered them for a while. Now that Xi Mingwen had free time, he didn't ask Xiyuan to deliver them. The weather was so hot, and he didn't want Xiyuan to suffer under the sun.So put things into the pot every night, and cook them over a slow fire. In the morning around Yinshi (3:4), grandpa and Xi Mingwen would get up and take out the food, and then at Yinshizhong (7:9), Xi Mingwen had a quick bite of rice. Start by driving the donkey cart, and you will be able to arrive at Yansui City before the end of Maoshi (11 o'clock), deliver the things clearly, and then drive back, and you will be back after a while at Sishi ([-] o'clock-[-] o'clock). The weather is just beginning to approach noon, and the heat is just coming up.

It's summer now, and the dawn is early, so even if I get up early, I don't feel hard.This can be done in one morning.After coming back, I have to clean the duck feet, goose feet and internal organs brought back from Wande Building, and then boil them in the pot at night.But there is no need for Xi Mingwen to do these things, Xiyuan's mother and grandma can do it well, and sometimes Xiyuan will reach out to help.

Because the weather has gotten warmer, now Xiyuan is teaching a few little guys in the yard of their home. Each little guy has a small table and a small stool. The table and stool have just been laid. When the carpenter ordered the doors and windows of the house, he told him that the corner materials were used to make small tables and stools. The old carpenter was very caring and made them whenever he had free time. Now he has made enough for a few little ones. , Xiyuan was moved back.There are several little ones, and the desk is very similar to the single-person desks in schools today, except that they are sitting on stools instead of chairs.

Xiyuan combines the teaching methods of modern schools, five days of classes in seven days, and then two days of rest.During the two days of rest, Wei Cheng and Xi Weike let go of the sheep and ran around the village to play, catching grasshoppers, frogs, and birds... In short, there are only things you can't think of, and they can't figure it out without them of.

Now the two little guys have taken aim at Xi Mingwen, who goes to deliver food every day, and wait by the donkey cart early on the rest day, regardless of whether the sun is shining or not, anyway, they will follow them to Yansui City.In fact, when I went there, I just went to Jude Building to put down my things and then came back, but the two little boys never got tired of it.Xiyuan thought that it would be better to let them go out to broaden their horizons, so as not to be like some farmers' children, who would become timid once they arrived in the city, afraid to speak or do things, and they would suffer a lot if they went out to wander in the future.

With Xiyuan's approval, the two children became more confident. Xi Mingwen also liked to take them with him. He drove the car in front, and the two children sat in the car and talked nonstop. Sometimes they would ask questions when they saw something. Asked him, a few people chatted and hurried on their way, feeling that time passed quickly.Sometimes Xiyuan is not lazy and goes along with him, the four of you sitting in the car are very lively.

Because the two of them always go, and the family doesn't want the two children to rush to Yansui City once, and go back barehanded, so every time Xi Mingwen will bring more than a dozen coins to buy some food for the two little guys. Yes, but they always pick the cheap ones to buy, Xi Wei and Wei Cheng don't pick and choose, they are quite satisfied with what they buy, and they eat and play happily.

Because the children always go to the city, Xiyuan didn't want them to look like dirt, so he specially bought two pieces of fabric, looked at the children's clothes in the city, and asked his mother and grandma to make two pieces for the two little guys. A set of summer clothes was tidied up for them every day before departure. The two children were cute and sweet-mouthed. Ye had watched it twice and went to Jude Building during their rest days to tease the two children.

Sometimes Sun Ye would grab some snacks from the food in Jude Building and give them to them, but their family had repeatedly told them not to take things from other people's houses when they were very young, so the two children could resist the temptation No matter how much you want to eat, give it to you, shake your head with your hands behind your back, so that Sun Ye has to talk nicely to others if he wants to give something. They don’t eat a little until the adults let them take it, and they don’t want to be like others. The child would gobble up something he hadn't eaten like that, and the elder brother said that he had to learn to put on an appearance outside.Such children are more and more likable, and everyone upstairs and downstairs in Jude is looking forward to the two little boys coming to add some happiness to them.

The two children followed Xiyuan to learn to read, and his elder brother not only taught them to read, but also taught them to count. Now, basically, addition and subtraction within [-] cannot be difficult for them. Xiyuan still remembers teaching children when he was a tutor in his previous life The addition and subtraction methods are quick calculations. When adding nine, subtract one; when adding eight, subtract two; when adding seven, subtract three; when subtracting three, add seven; when subtracting two, add eight; when subtracting one, add nine... A few radish heads taught, Xi Wei and Wei Cheng learned well.

Once Xi Mingwen was delayed by something, and someone happened to come to Judelou to buy his spicy duck feet and goose feet, as well as duck and goose intestines, while the weather was not hot in the morning. Zhang Cai wrapped them in oiled paper for him. He wanted to use an abacus to calculate how much it was, but Xi Wei reported the amount beside him. Zhang Cai didn't believe it, so he used the abacus to calculate it again, and the result was exactly the same as Xi Wei's calculation, which surprised Zhang Cai.

You know, a kid as old as the two of them, not to mention from a peasant family, even a rich family, has been taught by a teacher since he was a child, and he may not be able to count verbally, and he can do it so quickly and accurately.

The people in Jude Building were shocked by the ability of the two little guys to calculate. It happened that there were still a lot of people who came to buy food that morning, so the guys teased the two little guys and asked them to calculate how much they bought. No matter Xi Wei or Wei Cheng, they really just open their mouths, but it's limited to less than [-] Wen. After [-] Wen, the two children won't be counted. This is enough to make them look good and happy. This job picked up the two little hairy heads and shook them again and again.

Xi Wei and Wei Cheng are stinky farts, and they gave a few eyes to the people who were laughing at them with disdain. Such a simple addition and subtraction is not as difficult as their brother's usual test in class, okay? Every time I tell them and test them, I always give examples from my life. For example, my family sold three chickens, how much was the first chicken, how much was the second chicken, and how much was the third chicken? How much can it sell for; or how much does our family pay for one blue brick, one tile, four bricks and five tiles, etc., because it involves making money and spending money for our family, the little guys can count I am very careful, and I am afraid that my income will be less or more money will be spent at home. I have a very positive attitude, and I also remember the relevant formulas firmly.

As a result, it was widely spread. The diners who have been to Jude Building have heard that there are two child prodigies who will come every morning. Some people, out of curiosity, come earlier when they have nothing to do at lunch, or come here for a stroll in the morning. Buying something just to meet the two kids that the guys rave about.

Wei Cheng and Xi Wei are still very arrogant. If you don’t buy things from our house, I won’t count for you. The two children are standing behind the counter with only half of their heads exposed. There is no way for the guys to bring two small benches. Only then can the two of them expose their heads.

The little guy is still decent, asking people what they want to buy, one will keep the bill and the other will settle the bill, and Zhang Cai will help fetch the things, and the people who are funny will not leave after buying things, just stand there and watch, laughing at the same time Cheerfully strike up a conversation with them.

Because of the two of them, the things at home were sold more than before, and even the Jude Building sold more food, such as the double-skin milk that Xiyuan gave to Sun Ye Fangzi. I iced it a bit, so now I eat tender and sweet, cold and slippery, almost every guest will order a portion when they come, and the food is cool and refreshing, as if the heat has dissipated.

Some guests purposely held Xiwei and Weicheng with double-skinned milk, only to find that the two children didn't even bother to look at the food when it was given to them. Knowing that these two little guys are from a nearby village, it's impossible not to be indifferent to such delicious food. Could it be that the shopkeeper of Judelou has given them food?

Seeing the disbelief on the guest's face, Xi Wei and Wei Cheng had already rolled their eyes countless times in their hearts. Shuangpi milk is not a rare thing. As long as they want to eat, their brother will make it, which is even better than the one in Judelou. delicious!And my brother will also prepare food that is not available in Duojudelou. These people are really frogs at the bottom of a well, sitting in a well and watching the sky, and have never seen the big world!These two idioms were also taught by my brother's Protestant, and the two of them quickly used them.

Because they always go to Yansui City, and always show off in Jude Building, they have seen a wider range of worlds and met more people. Now the two children are not timid when they see anyone, they dare to speak, their mouths are sweet, and they are young. The older ones are called uncles, and the older ones are called grandpas. They are in charge of the shop assistants, and brother and brother always talk about each other, and according to what my brother taught, even if you don’t like this person in your heart, you can’t show it on your face. If they like it or hate it, they just smile and don't talk, so their popularity soars in Judelou. Everyone says that these two children are teasing, and they don't get angry no matter how funny they are.

Hearing such compliments from others, Xi Mingwen really wanted to cover his face. He smiled on his face and also in his heart, but the contents of the two smiles were different: the people who praised them must not know that when the two little guys came In the car, we had already discussed how to deal with whoever we met today, and how to answer what he said. If someone really didn’t know how to deal with it, I would go back and ask my brother, who would give them advice; on the way back, The content of what the two children said changed again, and they began to comment on who is so stupid today, whoever said that is really Xiaobai, the word Xiaobai was learned from Xiyuan, and the two of them can also learn it and use it. The two also nicknamed each of the people who always tease them, such as Zhang Laoya, which means that this person has a male duck voice when speaking; Guo Mantou, which means that this person is white and fat; , this person is a bit crazy when he talks and does things, and he doesn't walk the normal way; the donkey rolls, um, this means that this person's face always seems to be unclean, with a layer of dirt... Anyway, everyone took a foreigner The numbers are all based on people.

In addition to giving people nicknames, the two children in the car going back every day also summed up and commented on what happened that morning. Whoso said that was really ridiculous, whoever said that was really stupid, and whoever made fun of them. Phase... In short, if others heard what they said, probably no one would call them cute little guys.
