The promise of everything is fresh. After breakfast, he started to walk around the house, but there are only a few houses in this house, the one he sleeps in is nothing, and it is not convenient for him to enter the room of Zhao Dazhu and his wife, so the rest is The main hall in the middle is just the kitchen and storeroom.

The kitchen is just a few chairs, a table, a cupboard, a water tank, and a wooden shelf with a few pots of porridge on it, and a large space in front of the stove and stove for firewood. watch.

Xu Nuo entered the main hall in the middle. In the middle of the room, there was a spiritual tablet of ancestors. The spiritual tablet was facing a square table. There were several chairs and a ladder on the left. Colorful pictures, inlaid with glass, hanging on the walls of the mud-brick house are a bit out of place, but it seems that they were given by others when Zhao Dazhu and Zhang Xiujuan got married.On the right are several large pottery jars lined up side by side, promising to know that they contain millet.

Pushing open the door of the warehouse, Xu Nuo was pleasantly surprised to see a bicycle inside. The bike was 24 inches and looked old. This was probably the most valuable thing he saw in this house. Xu Nuo thought for a while, I just remembered that this bike was a second-hand bicycle that Zhao Wenwen bought for him when he went to the town to study junior high school. The distance from the village to the town was not short. , I rode my bicycle home on weekends, and only went home once a month or two until I went to high school and studied in the county town.

In addition to putting some firewood in the warehouse, there is also a... plow?Xu Nuo had never seen this thing before, but he just concluded from Zhao Wenwen's memory that it was made of a strange wooden frame and a plowshare, and people here used this to plow the fields. Take a hoe and a shovel, and a rake-like thing for growing peanuts.

There is a large flat open space outside the door. As early as I promised yesterday, I noticed that there is a large open space in front of every household in this village. This is only available in villas in the city, but the situation in the village is that houses The surrounding areas belong to the owner.

Further on is...

Xu Nuo suddenly opened his eyes wide.

This is, lychee?

The red lychees hung all over the branches, and the branches were all drooping under the weight. The dark green leaves set off the red lychees particularly vividly.

It turns out that the lychee tree looks like this?

Discovering this surprise, Xu Nuo began to look forward to it. Sure enough, he found many fruits around the house, such as longan, carambola, and banana. Naturally, he didn't recognize these trees, and he could only identify them by their fruits. , there is also a kind of yellow-yellow round fruit that he has never seen before, but from Zhao Wenwen's memory, he knows that it is called "yellow skin" fruit, and it really lives up to its name. There is also a tall tree with oval leaves. The size of an adult's palm, the trunk of this tree also bears fruit. The fruit is very large and covered with dense nails. Xu Nuo thought it was a durian at first, but from Zhao Wenwen's memory, he learned that it was jackfruit, jackfruit It is Xu Nuo who thinks that people here call it pineapple.

I really didn't expect there to be so many fruits here, many of which Xu Nuo had never seen before, or even heard of, but it's not surprising, Xu Nuo lived in the city before, so he didn't have many chances to see fruit trees , that is, fruit, if it wasn't available in the supermarket, he probably wouldn't know it, let alone these tropical fruits.

To be honest, I was very happy to see these promises, especially when I learned that these are Zhao Wenwen's family. After all, he is Zhao Wenwen's now, and it belongs to Zhao Wenwen's family as well as his family, wandering around among the fruit trees Go, the smile on Xu Nuo's face never stopped.

Suddenly, he felt a lump of soft and creepy things under his feet, looked down, Xu Nuo's whole body instantly stiffened!

This is, shit?

"what!"

After all, it was a girl inside, Xu Nuo couldn't help but let out a cry.

Following Xu Nuo's scream, several chickens that had been perched on the tree jumped down flutteringly, and the big yellow dog at home ran out from nowhere and barked at him.

This world is so dangerous!

Holding his nose with one hand, he promised not to turn his head away, carefully removed his feet from the ball of "landmines", rubbed his shoes on the ground a few times, and then jumped back to the well with one foot, scooped up water and put his feet back He washed it back and forth several times, but even so, he always felt that his feet hadn't been washed clean. He didn't know if it was a psychological effect. Xu Nuo always felt a bad smell coming from his feet from time to time.

After so dawdling, it was almost eight o'clock. Xu Nuo remembered Zhao Dazhu and his wife who were still working in the fields, and walked towards the path according to the memory. Walking among the ridges of the fields, there were people harvesting in many rice fields, and there were many children inside. Even when he was only eleven or twelve years old, seeing those children bending over to cut the rice with sickles, and then looking down at his empty hands, Xu Xu really blushed.

After thinking about it, he ran back again, rummaged through the warehouse and found a not-so-new scythe in the corner, found a straw hat to wear, and then walked in the same direction again.

"Hey, Dawen, are you going to cut the crops for your father and mother?"

When walking through the middle of the field, someone saw Xu Nuo holding a sickle and couldn't help asking.

Xu Nuo blushed and didn't answer.

But after he walked a few steps, he heard the person who spoke just now say to another person: "I didn't expect this Dawen to be more sensible after jumping into the water once."

Another voice said: "Dazhu and Xiujuan just can't see clearly. What's the use of reading so many books for rural children? It's better to help with more work at home and save a lot of money."

"What do you know, I heard people say that people in the city must study, and only after studying can they get a good job. I think Dazhu has a good eye, but he didn't live up to his expectations and failed to pass the exam. It's a pity. "

"You really said it so well, why don't you let your family, A Sheng and A Hai, read it?"

The man's voice was softer just now: "Hey, don't I have four children to support, the one and two will grow up in the future, and I have to build a house for them as a wife. How can I have such spare money?"

Afterwards they didn't listen to Xu Nuo, and after walking for about 10 minutes, Xu Nuo saw Zhao Dazhu and Zhang Xiujuan who were bending over to cut rice in the field.

"Abba, Eminem!"

Zhao Dazhu and Zhang Xiujuan heard the voice and stood up straight to see Xu Nuo wearing a straw hat and holding a sickle, a little surprised.

"Dawen, what are you doing with the sickle?"

Xu Nuo blushed, and whispered, "I, I just want to help the family with some work..."

Zhang Xiujuan's eyes were a little wet when she heard this. In fact, Dawen used to help the family often, but later they often asked him to go back to read books, and he didn't need him to do the work. Later, he gradually stopped helping the family. Unexpectedly Now Dawen is willing to work for them again.

However, Zhang Xiujuan was worried that Dawen was hit by the college entrance examination, so she couldn't help saying: "You are not needed here, the sun is too poisonous, you should just stay at home."

Zhao Dazhu also nodded honestly: "Listen to your mother."

Xu Nuo knew that they loved their son, but he had the nerve to really stay at home, so he ignored them, took off his shoes and jumped into the field.

But even though he said he wanted to help them, but at this time he didn't know what to do. He stood there stupidly, and when Zhang Xiujuan looked at him, his face became even redder. It's a big talk but can't do it.

Fortunately, Zhang Xiujuan only thought that he hadn't done it for many years, so she forgot. She also carefully guided him and told him the tricks of harvesting rice.

"Dawen, you can't do this. If you don't wear gloves and sleeves, your arms will be cut by the seedlings." Zhang Xiujuan took off her gloves and sleeves and put them on for him.

Seeing that she picked it for him, Xu Nuo hurriedly wanted to refuse, but Zhang Xiujuan's attitude was very firm, and Xu Nuo couldn't refuse in the end.

Although unfamiliar, Xu Nuo has learned how to cut rice, but the speed is very slow, and he has to be careful not to be cut by the scythe. Xu is new, and Xu Nuo thinks it is fun.

only……

half an hour later

Standing up and stretching his sore waist, Xu Nuo's face turned a bitter melon color, this is really not fun!

Zhang Xiujuan obviously noticed his frequent stretching of his waist.

"Da Wen, if you are tired, take a rest." After thinking about it, she reminded her again, "Otherwise, you should go back first!"

Unexpectedly, he was so useless, Xu Nuo blushed, a little ashamed, he could endure so many years under the torment of the serious illness, it didn't make sense that he couldn't do such a small thing well.

Compared with endurance and perseverance, Xu Nuo thinks that he is no worse than others, so he listened to Zhang Xiujuan's words and took a rest for a while before continuing the "journey". Son.

After stopping and resting like this, I don't know how long it took, Xu Nuo looked at the sky, it was already high in the sky, the sun was so hot that it seemed to dry people up, and the bottle of water that Zhang Xiujuan brought in the morning was almost drunk Originally, she only prepared the amount for her and Zhao Dazhu, but the words of the two of them were enough, but adding a promise was not enough.

Seeing that Zhao Dazhu and Zhang Xiujuan are still busy, they obviously have no plans to call it a day. Xu Nuo doesn't know what time it is, but no matter how many hours it is, with this temperature and the scorching sun, no matter what, it's time to call it a day, otherwise I'm afraid I'll suffer from heat stroke .

Just when Xu Nuo was debating whether to persuade them to go back, Zhang Xiujuan spoke out first.

"Da Wen, don't cut it, go back first, and bring me and your father lunch at one o'clock later." This is not the first time Zhang Xiujuan persuaded him, but the previous few times Both were promised to be deliberately ignored.

Xu Nuo didn't persuade them in the end, because he saw that there were obviously many people working in other fields, and it was obvious that this kind of thing was common here.
