After passing the canal, Jing Mo asked, "Is this all planted by Brother Xing?"

"Well, I'm not in good health, so I can only help him with the weaving at most, and all the work in the field depends on him." Although he also has the help of his nephews, it is also possible to make Jingmo feel that his brother is capable. Tell a little lie, Fifth Uncle thought to himself.

Jing Mo knew about Fifth Uncle's poor health, and he didn't take it seriously at first. Birth, old age, sickness and death are the norm, and he has no intention of making any changes.

But feelings are accumulated through getting along. If it is just a nod, Jing Mo can still be put in the back of his mind, but Fifth Uncle treats him well, and he also respects this old man. Besides, Fifth Uncle’s illness is not incurable, and he With wood-type powers on his body, even if Fifth Uncle stepped into the Palace of the King of Hades with one foot, he would be able to snatch it back.

But the current situation is that when he hastily told Nan Xing, 'I can cure fifth uncle's illness', Nan Xing would only treat him as talking in his sleep.

So this mouth cannot be opened easily.

Fortunately, there is still time, so there is no rush to take your time.

Jing Mo, who had made up his mind, returned to the main story: "Brother Xing is so capable, I can't take it for nothing. How many vegetables I pick in the future, I will pay back to Brother Xing according to the market price."

"..." For the first time, Uncle Wu felt that Jing Mo was brainless.

Fifth Uncle, who had a choked toothache, didn't plan to pay attention to him for the time being.

Jing Mo only thought that the old man didn't like him raising money, but Nan Xing is not easy to grow vegetables, he has to respect other people's labor results, although it is worthless, it can add up to a lot, and he doesn't live here for a day or two, if possible, this He will never move the land in his life, so he is ashamed to keep eating for free, so his thinking is spinning there: "I may live in Nanhe Village, maybe it will be a lifetime thing, and besides, I don't like farming. Long-term supply, of course, has to be calculated clearly.”

Uncle Wu knew that what he said was reasonable, but he didn't expect this person to be so stupid.

Why don't you think about changing your identity and marrying his brother, so you don't need to pay money?

Could it be that... I didn't get the hang of it?

Uncle Wu also understands things like feelings, and sometimes he just misses the point. Obviously, everyone knows something, but he doesn't understand it after searching for a long time, so he has to rely on others to point it out.

Maybe Jingmo is like this.

But it's not a big deal for him to ask the old man whether you like my brother or not.

Uncle Wu has lived a long time, and it can be seen that Jing Mo has a good impression of his brother, but he doesn't know where he has reached.

It's okay if it hits one point, but if it backfires, then his brother will be ashamed to be a man.

When Uncle Wu thought about it, he felt that he should not be impulsive, and the matter of feelings had to be up to the two of them, and he would make it clear when the time came.

Anyway, he had only known him for a short time, and he hadn't figured out exactly what Jing Mo was like, so he couldn't act blindly.

If Xing Xing is harmed, he will die without resting his eyes.

The fifth uncle calmed down after thinking it through, and replied: "I don't care about this matter, you can discuss it with Xing Xing."

Jing Mo dared to heave a sigh of relief when he saw his face calm down: "Okay."

Coincidentally, when the two walked to the gate of the village, they happened to meet the three of Nan Xing who had come back from the other side.

Besides Nan Xing and the village chief's wife, there was another woman.

As soon as the woman saw Fifth Uncle, she called out Fifth Uncle.

Those who would call Fifth Uncle that way obviously belonged to their family.

Jing Mo followed behind Fifth Uncle, still holding garlic sprouts and celery.

A few people also understood what Fifth Uncle was doing this trip.

The wife of the village chief asked, "Why do you come out to pick vegetables at this hour?"

Jing Mo replied: "I don't remember if I have to cook."

The woman said with a smile: "After all, he is a man, he will not know how to live."

Nan Xing came up and put the straw hat on Fifth Uncle's head so as not to dry it, and asked him, "There are other vegetables in the field, why don't you pick some?"

"There are still at home." Jing Mo replied the same words.

Seeing this, the woman looked at the village chief's wife with a smile in her eyes, and she didn't know what she thought of.

Uncle Wu said: "Stop standing there, go back."

Several people entered the village together.

The fifth uncle walked slowly, and the village head's wife and the woman were in a hurry to go back to cook, so they all said goodbye to the fifth uncle first, and went back first.

There were only three Jingmo people left on the road.

After they left, Jing Mo dared to ask, "Why you?"

"Uncle and aunt are still in the field, let's come back and cook first."

When the farming season is busy, several families eat together, and the meals are cooked in turn. Originally, the older generation would take care of this, but the only elders in their family are the eldest uncle and fifth uncle.

The eldest uncle is too old, and the fifth uncle is not in good health, so he can't work too hard, so every time his wife sends two people back to work first.

Jing Mo asked again: "How many days will it take to finish planting?"

"Our family has a lot of land, and it will take four or five days." Their family has a huge root in Nanhe Village. Not to mention that the uncle had seven brothers and sisters in his generation, and the uncle also had three sons and a daughter.

These brothers are Ding Duwang, and there is only the fifth uncle's family, and there is only one elder brother in the two generations.

"You really don't need my help?" Jing Mo asked again.

Nan Xing smiled: "You don't know how to transplant rice seedlings, and I have to teach you after you go to the field, so you should rest at home."

This time, Jing Mo really wanted to help him. After seeing the other party's blushed face, the impulse kept coming up, and a voice in his heart kept shouting, don't make Nan Xing so hard: "I can learn."

Nan Xing was taken aback. He remembered that he had brought up this topic yesterday, when the atmosphere was weird and it was inexplicably cut off. Now that he talked about it again, he was still so firm: "No need, it won't be a long time." He had more things to think about, Working for Jingmo was paid, but Jingmo worked for them, and there must be a lot of discussion in the village.

Others will definitely know that you are not paying back work, so if you want to say thank you, it is unnecessary.

So Nanxing couldn't accept Jingmo's kindness.

Being rejected again, Jing Mo had no choice but to give up.

All the way to the door in silence.

Before Nan Xing and Uncle Wu went in, Jing Mo said, "I'll bring it over when it's ready."

Nan Xing didn't know what to do again, but Fifth Uncle hummed.

After Jing Mo left, the grandfather and grandson entered the house.

Nan Xing was also a little hungry, so he asked Fifth Uncle, "Do you have porridge for lunch?"

"Well, sauerkraut is ready, let's wash your hands and eat." Before going out in the morning, Nan Xing said that he would eat sauerkraut and send porridge, and Uncle Wu arranged for it. It was hot weather, so he cooked it first and let it cool.

"Grandpa, let's eat steamed buns tomorrow morning." Nan Xing said while fetching water to wash his face.

"Then you have to get up early again." The fifth uncle felt sorry for his brother, and didn't want him to make too complicated meals.

"I can't eat it, and I'm tired of eating noodles."

"Okay, as you like."

After discussing it with each other, the grandpa and grandson went into the kitchen for lunch.

When Jing Mo returned to his home, he washed the garlic sprouts and celery, cut them into sections, and then began to fry the pork belly.

First add ginger slices and pork belly and stir-fry. After the aroma is released, add cooking wine and light soy sauce respectively, and finally add water to cook.

The pork belly was hard. Considering that Uncle Wu was old, Jingmo cooked it a little longer, for a quarter of an hour, before adding garlic sprouts and celery and stir frying.

After frying the pork belly, Jing Mo went to fry the vegetables again.

It doesn't take long for the greens to come out of the pan.

Jing Mo didn't have time to tidy up, so he put out a portion of pork belly in a bowl, and called Zhou Jing, "You wash the bowl and put the rice in first."

Seeing that he was walking in a hurry, Zhou Jing had no choice but to put down the ax and clean his hands to pack the rice.

When he brought the food, Nan Xing and Fifth Uncle were already full.

But since it was promised in advance, it was hard not to accept it, so Nan Xing took it over: "You go back to eat, too, and I will send you the bowl one."

"Okay." Jing Mo glanced at him before going back.

Uncle Wu knew that there was still something delicious to eat, so he didn't leave. He stayed in the kitchen until Nan Xing came in and asked, "He said he wanted garlic sprouts to fry pork belly, would it be delicious?"

"Give it a try." I've already picked it up, so I can't throw it away.

And Jingmo's craftsmanship is really hard to say.

The bowls and chopsticks were also confiscated, and then they ate again.

Pork belly that lacks ingredients naturally lacks a little taste, but it absorbs the aroma of garlic and celery, and the taste is naturally delicious in the mouths of those who have never eaten it.

Uncle Wu has bad teeth, but the pork belly cooked by Jingmo is not so hard, he can bite it.

After eating a piece, he nodded, "To tell you the truth, even if this kid doesn't farm, he won't starve to death as a cook."

"Hey, Grandpa, do you think we can ask Jing Mo to teach Brother Ying how to do it?" Ying works as a cook in a restaurant in the town. He is eager to learn and strives for progress, and he has won the favor of another old teacher in the restaurant. The old teacher promised his daughter to be his wife. The whole family usually lives in the town. Come back for holidays or vacations.

"You can ask Jing Mo."

"Okay, I'll ask later."

Nan Xing picked up another chopstick for him.

When Jing Mo returned home, Zhou Jing had already served the meal.

"Let's eat." The child was sensible, and he didn't come back, so he didn't dare to sit down.

"Okay." Zhou Jing was growing up, and he was very hungry. When the aroma wafted from the kitchen, the gluttons in his stomach were hooked out. At this time, Jing Mo asked him to move his chopsticks, but he was no longer polite, and kept going. Grilled rice.

Seeing that he removed half a bowl of rice, the chopsticks only reached into the basin two or three times, and said, "Eat vegetables, what are you doing just eating?"

Zhou Jing sighed again: "Brother Jing, you are really a good person. You hire people to work, and it's fine to pay for the rice, and you also eat rice."

Jing Mo didn't understand the rules here, so he asked, "What do you usually eat?"

"Usually eat porridge or pancakes. Rice is very expensive, and it is usually only eaten when guests come or during Chinese New Year."

"Every household has planted them, so why are they living so miserablely?" Jing Mo was puzzled.

"I have to pay taxes, and I have to take half of the tax. The past few years have been good, the weather has been good, everyone has a good harvest, and life is better." Zhou Jing put a piece of pork belly in the bowl, and ate it with the rice.

Jing Mo forgot about this, these days the income from the field is not all his own, and he has to hand it over to the government.

Moreover, the output is not good in this era, and the population is large. If you want to talk about rice every day, you can't afford it.

Thinking about it, Fifth Uncle cooked rice for two meals yesterday to make him full.

He is living a good life by himself, everyone should be like this.

The author has something to say:

Everyone, take a look at my pre-received text.

When Chu Xu woke up, he found that he was not only a married person, but also a well-known scumbag in the village.

He got a daughter-in-law for nothing, and before he could completely change his image, the daughter-in-law took the money he earned and left a letter of divorce and ran away.

Chu Xu, who is short of money and manpower: "..."

The daughter-in-law ran away, and she just chased her back.

From then on, he escaped and chased, and he couldn't fly with his wings.
