80s Taoism

Chapter 14

Zhang Jiaohua stared dumbfounded at what happened. He saw with his own eyes that Zhang Youlian was tripped by the golden tiger and fell to the ridge of the field. Zhang Youlian slapped Li Yuju because Gouwa grabbed his hand and slapped him. In other words, the current noisy fight was provoked by Jin Hu and the others. But Zhang Jiaohua didn't feel any guilt in his heart, instead he felt very happy, yes, very happy.

Don't think that the kid doesn't have the hatred of staying overnight, it's great when the kid remembers the hatred. Zhang Jiaohua doesn't care how bad things are. While having breakfast, Zhang Jiaohua happily led the big buffalo home. At this time, Zhang Qianlong's old house remembered the sound of firecrackers. In fact, Zhang Youlian was apologizing to Li Yuju.

After Zhang Youping took care of his elder brother's affairs, he went to help Zhang Qianlong's house and would not be back until evening. The affairs of the family depended on Liu Qiaoye alone.

Don't look at it's not the harvest season, the farmer's work is too busy. The sweet potato vines should be turned over, otherwise, many lateral roots will grow on the sweet potato vines, which will become small sweet potatoes in the future, affecting the nutrition of the main root. In addition, the weeds in the sweet potato field should be cleaned up by the way. The barnyardgrass and various weeds in the rice fields should also be cleaned up in time, otherwise the barnyardgrass seeds will mature and fall into the rice fields, which will become a disaster for the next season of rice. The late-ripening corn is ready to be harvested, and we have to pick it up as soon as possible when the weather is fine, otherwise, once the rainy season comes, the corn sticks may be broken in the ground... All these things need to be cleaned up one by one by every family in Meizi'ao. Originally, Zhang Youping was the main labor force in the family, but now, the heavy labor is completely on the woman Liu Qiaoye.

Zhang Jiaohua tied up the ox, and when he got home, there was already a pile of corn sticks piled up on the sun-grain flat in the yard. The husks hadn't been torn apart, and the golden-yellow jade-like corn inside hadn't been exposed yet.

Liu Qiaoye was already busy in the kitchen, preparing breakfast.

"Mother. I'm back." Zhang Jiaohua was about to share the big news of this morning with his mother.

"Bao Zai, go and wash your face, we'll have breakfast soon." In the kitchen, Liu Qiaoye's concerned voice sounded immediately.

"Mother, do you know what uncle is doing today?" Zhang Jiaohua ran into the kitchen and asked mysteriously.

"Hey, what happened to Uncle today?" It's impossible for Liu Qiaoye not to know about such a big matter, but she deliberately pretended not to know.

"He fell into Jiujin's field and crushed a piece of corn to death. He even scolded Li Yuju, and then uncle..." Zhang Jiaohua described what happened vividly.

"How do you know so clearly?" Liu Qiaoye looked at Zai Zai strangely.

"Isn't it because I led the cow over the ridge of the uncle's field..." Zhang Jiaohua explained the cause of the incident.

"This is going to be a big trouble. Your uncle will definitely blame you for this." Liu Qiaoye knew that Zhang Youlian was a small-minded person, and would definitely resent Zhang Jiaohua afterwards. Although the matter is entirely Zhang Youlian's own fault.

"You can't blame me. The ridges of their fields don't give way to passers-by? Fortunately, he is still my uncle. I graze cattle, and I haven't eaten a single grain or bean from their family." Zhang Jiaohua is not afraid of his uncle making trouble for him at all, and he will be good if he doesn't make trouble for him in the future. What happened today made Zhang Jiaohua understand how to deal with those bad guys.

"Zai Zai, uncle is an elder after all, you are a junior, and juniors should respect elders." Liu Qiaoye said hastily.

"Then he wants to beat me unreasonably, and I have to recognize him as an elder? If he hadn't fallen into the field, he would definitely come and beat me. He deserves his bad luck! Just now, his face was scratched by Niu Jinniang. It's called the wicked." Zhang Jiaohua giggled.

Jin Hu and the others were also very happy. They knew they did the right thing today and protected Zhang Jiaohua. They have already begun to subconsciously protect Zhang Jiaohua.

There are only two dishes for breakfast, one is loofah soup, and the other is fried loach with chili. Although there is no refrigerator, loach is fried very dry in fragrant oil, and it will not deteriorate after a day or two.

After Zhang Jiaohua ate two big bowls of rice, his stomach became round.

"Mother has to dig sweet potato vines in the field after dinner. You stay at home and don't run around. I heard that traffickers came to the village recently in Majiawan to steal children. One disobedient child ran out to play and was arrested." Liu Qiaoye made up a story to scare Zai Zai so that he would not run around.

"I'm not afraid of human traffickers. I beat that human trafficker away last time. If he didn't run fast, I would have arrested him." Zhang Jiaohua felt very motivated when he thought of what he did that day. It's a pity that human traffickers don't come every day, so it's a lot less fun.

"You were lucky that day. When you met a powerful human trafficker, you couldn't even run away." Liu Qiaoye gave Zai Zai a white look. This method did not work.

"Then I'm not alone at home anymore, I'll go to the fields with you." Zhang Jiaohua showed a sly smile on his face.

"No. The sun is too hot outside." Liu Qiaoye immediately rejected Zai Zai's request.

"Mother is not afraid of the sun, and I am not afraid of the sun." Zhang Jiaohua will not give up so easily.

Zhang Jiaohua's words warmed Liu Qiaoye's heart, "Good boy, you know you care about mother. Mother will take you there, but you have to obey mother's orders and wear a bamboo hat. And stand under the shade of the trees and don't run around."

The sky is clear and the sun is scorching the earth. Walking in the vegetable field, you can smell the various smells of various vegetable leaves under the hot sun. It seems that these vegetable leaves are about to be steamed by the sun.

When they got to the field, Zhang Jiaohua stayed by the side for a while, but couldn't stay idle anymore. How can a kid be afraid of the sun? Farm work is full of fun for little kids, so why bother? Only adults who have endured the torture of life can appreciate the bitterness and bitterness of this life.

Turning sweet potato vines is also a technical activity. During the turning process, the tangled sweet potato vines must be carefully sorted out, and care must be taken so as not to cause too much damage to the vines. Otherwise it will be counterproductive.

Liu Qiaoye is already a qualified farmer, and she has thoroughly mastered this skill. Sweet potato vines are like threading a needle in her hands. The vines were neatly combed by her.

Zhang Jiaohua ran over, and when turning over the first vine, he tore the sweet potato vine into several pieces.

Although Liu Qiaoye didn't want her son to be like their generation, doing such hard farm work all his life. But he still patiently taught his son to do it.

Life, no matter how unwilling you are, you have to follow the laws of life. Hard work pays off.
