Rebirth in another world is good for farming

Chapter 21 Good and Evil

Zhao Datian left without gaining anything, but Zhang Xiaoliu couldn't feel at ease.People are really strange creatures, because with thoughts, even the same blood and environment can give birth to completely different individuals.Some people are kind by nature, and more moderate people will never make trouble even if they can't do it in a timely manner.

But no matter where you go, you can also meet another type of people, who are not right-minded and want to take advantage of it, and want to maintain a noble face after getting the benefit.Just like Zhao Datian, who spoke in a reasonable manner, but actually didn't consider other people's difficulties at all.Obviously, the whole family has already taken advantage of it, and they still want to take away the last bit of what they have.The reason why he repeatedly told Zhao Zhengze not to give up the land easily was because he didn't want to see their complacent faces.Some people, no matter how nice you are to them, won't get a single ounce of response.Furthermore, although Zhao Zhengze lives at home, if he saves enough money to build a house by himself in the future, he will have a bright face, and he will not be pointed out that he is living in the Zhang family.

The afternoon before the market, Fulai came to ask him if he would go to the market tomorrow.Fulai is Dashun's elder brother. I don't know if it's because of the word "Fu" in his name. He looks very blessed, especially when he smiles very comfortably.Because he has two older brothers, he doesn't have to go to the fields on weekdays. He just waters vegetables, chops firewood and cooks at home, which is considered a very privileged life.

"Brother Liu, are you still going to the market tomorrow?" Zhang Xiaoliu was picking vegetables in the vegetable field, and Fulai asked him from a distance by the roadside.

"Go, I'm running out of oil and salt at home, I'm going to fetch some."

"Uncle Zhang Wu's ox cart will also leave tomorrow, so I'll let you hurry up and go together in the ox cart."

"Okay, I see, it won't be too late." Zhang Xiaoliu came out of the vegetable field, holding a bunch of neatly bundled vegetables in his hand.He walked over and handed it to Fulai, and said with a smile, "Take it back and let you taste the vegetables I grow."

"Brother Liu, no need. I still have vegetables in the vegetable field at home!" Fulai knew that his family's life was not easy, so Momo used to nagging all day long about whether they could live on, how could he dare to take his vegetables back.

"Take it, let me tell you, my vegetable garden is huge! Now I have to eat this kind of vegetable, and it will scare him when it grows." Zhang Xiaoliu knew what Fulai was thinking at a glance, confidently explain.The day he stepped on the seedlings, he walked by the side of Dashun's vegetable field, and found that there were not many vegetables in it.Probably some time ago, we had to empty out the vegetable plots and replace them with eggplants and summer melons, but now is the time when the crops are in short supply.

Fulai hesitated for a moment before taking it.

"Seeing that you are so happy, it must be your brother who wants to pass the door?"

"How can it be so fast, the date has not been chosen yet, I heard that he is not willing to part with him, the date may be picked at the end of the year!" Sure enough, Fulai kept smiling, and whispered before leaving: "I will go with Momo tomorrow too. Going to the market!"

Zhang Xiaoliu waved at him as if suddenly enlightened, thinking that Fulai is also 12 years old, one year older than himself now!I can be so happy just hearing that I am going to the market.

He thought for a while, walked into the dish and picked another handful of vegetables, and shouted into the house, "Mai, come out and help."

Mai Mai heard it in the house, and quickly walked out with Xiao Song on her back.In fact, he was not much heavier than Xiaosong, and it was obviously very difficult to carry his brother on his back, and he walked with his waist bent.

"Xiaosong, are you ashamed to have your brother carry it on your back at this age?" Zhang Xiaoliu said angrily when he saw Xiaosong lying on Maimai's back when he looked up.When he first came here, he felt that Xiaosong's physical condition was too poor, and that Mai was used to it, so he was more indulgent.But during this period of time, with the improvement of nutrition, the child's complexion is getting better and better, and the body is getting stronger.

"Brother, what do you want from me?" Mai Mai obeyed her elder brother's advice and loved her younger brother.At this time, seeing that Xiaosong was being trained, he quickly smoothed things over.

"Don't follow him too much, be careful that you won't grow tall if you bend your waist." Zhang Xiaoliu frightened him, saw him nodding repeatedly, and then said: "Go to Cao'er's house and see him Is it any better? Tomorrow I will take you to the market, and by the way, ask them if they have anything to bring back from home. Take this vegetable over there, and say that it was grown in our vegetable field. "

"Going to the market?" Mai Mai was taken aback when she heard his words, and her joy immediately overflowed.

"Yeah, I haven't brought you to watch the show yet. Don't look forward to it too much. The road is long and hard, so don't cry." Seeing his happy look, Zhang Xiaoliu suddenly felt that this decision was not worth it. wrong.

"I, I'm going to see it too." Xiaosong understood what they said, and was also very interested in the place where his brother would bring back many good things every time he went there, and said unwillingly to be ignored.

When he said this, the joy in Maimai's eyes faded a bit, and he patted his head and said, "Brother, Xiaosong hasn't been there either, you should take him there tomorrow."

"He's so young, how can he walk a long way? I still have things to do when I go to the market, so why not carry him all the way? I don't have the strength." Zhang Xiaoliu can't help it either, he himself doesn't care that going to the market is tiring and hot , but the appeal of the market is not small for children who seldom see the excitement.But if Xiaosong goes, he can only hug him, and he can't afford to hug him for a long time.

Mai Mai looked at his younger brother in embarrassment.

No matter how you look at it, you look like a slave...

"Brother Xiaomai hasn't been there before, right? My brother doesn't have the strength to hug you. If you get tired on the road, you won't be able to go home. Do you still want to go?" Zhang Xiaoliu threatened.

Xiao Song bit his finger and thought for a while, then shook his head decisively.

"Hey, you can go when you are eight years old." Zhang Xiaoliu patted his butt with satisfaction, and pried his fingers out of his mouth.

Seeing this, Mai Mai was also relieved, and took the vegetables and walked to Cao'er Momo's house.Zhang Xiaoliu took Xiaosong's hand and went into the house. Since he was going to the market tomorrow, he was going to buy some meat and eat meat, so he didn't have to eat vegetables for the next few days.Now the two ridges in the field are enough for them to eat.Maybe they didn't lack this dish, and it was also a statement from him, showing that he was always grateful for the other party's help.

The village is such a big place outside the village, which couples have quarreled, which two families have conflicts, and the villagers will know all about it by moving their mouths together.The news that Zhao Datian's family told Da'er about his elder brother had already spread. As for the Gao family's worry that their family would build a house for their nephew to marry their elder brother, most of them took it as a joke.If this uncle really cared so much about his younger brother's children, how could he let him go out and set up a household at a young age when he has no house, no land and no possessions?

There are four children living in the two dilapidated houses of the Zhang family. Naturally, there are many people who sympathize with them. How many people would be willing?It's just a sigh after dinner.

However, some people found that the Zhang family's life was predictably getting better gradually.The two houses are still the same, but a vegetable field is surrounded in front of the house, and chickens are also raised.The crops in the fields are growing very well, and the vegetables grown are also decent. As long as they last for a year or so, there will be no shortage of food.

No one in the Zhang family has entered the gossip circle in the village, so naturally they don't know these subtle words.Zhang Xiaoliu was still fighting for his brothers to be able to eat rice, and Zhao Zhengze was also working hard under his command.It is very worry-free to go to the market with wheat. You don’t have to worry about getting lost by holding on to his clothes tightly. After walking a street, you don’t ask for anything. Even the candied haws that Zhang Xiaoliu gave him as an extra reward had to be taken back to share with his brother. eat.

There was nothing important about going to the market, except for the lack of oil and salt for cooking, Zhang Xiaoliu bought a few catties of meat as usual.Although he still had some spare money in the small earthen pot, he was taken aback by the speed of spending money. He didn't dare to buy any more rice, so he bought a bucket of brown rice.Even so, when I came back, I was told for a long time by an old woman who was riding in a bullock cart together, while talking about his father who didn't even leave a stutter, and at the same time saying that Xiaoliu was too young to plan such a thing.

When the bullock cart stopped, Zhang Xiaoliu hurried away with Mai.He was quite afraid of other people's nagging, and he couldn't say anything because of his seniority and other people's good intentions, but it was really embarrassing to listen to the training under the eyes of many people.

"Brother, in fact, Mammy is right. Eating brown rice is too expensive. Why don't you buy some wheat and soybeans..." Mai Mai was obviously tired, and he followed him for a while before panting.

"You are better than elder brother who knows how to run the house. I don't have to worry about it after two years. Just let me handle everything." Zhang Xiaoliu nodded his forehead. This younger brother is really a model of thrift. Seeing that the family wants to eat rice, they all look worried.

"But now you and Xiaosong are still growing up, we can't just eat those things. Just don't tell others when you go out to play. I know our situation!"

Back home, Zhang Xiaoliu was startled again by Zhao Zhengze's weaving skills.I just heard him mention yesterday that he wanted to weave a bamboo basket so that he could carry it to the market in the future. When he came back, he saw two baskets, one big and one small, hanging under the eaves with straw ropes, green in color.

"I didn't have anything to do in the morning. I made it up. I have to wait for a few days to dry before I can use it." Zhao Zhengze came out with Xiaosong in his arms, and Xiaosong immediately jumped down and threw himself on Mai Mai, rubbing his head around and smelling something.

"Well, your craftsmanship is really good." Zhang Xiaoliu praised, and took out the candy that Cao'ermajia entrusted him to buy, and Mai Mai took it to give it away.

"It's been a long time since I made it up, so it's not pretty." Zhao Zhengze smiled. He originally wanted to try it first, but later found that there were no mistakes, so he kept it.

"You stay with Xiaosong for a while, and I'll cook." Zhang Xiaoliu raised the things in his hands, indicating that it's time to add more vegetables today.
