Chapter 248 - The 27th Cannon Fodder -
Lingxi Village in Huaxia Kingdom is a place of outstanding people. Why do you say that this place is outstanding? It is because in a certain dynasty and generation, there was a noble concubine in this place. The name of the noble concubine happened to be Lingxi. Mountain Village' was changed to 'Lingxi Village'.
Right next to Niushan Mountain, there is a small stream. The stream is not big, but it has not stopped flowing for hundreds of years. The local people believe that there is a river god in the stream, and it is the river god who protects their Lingxi Village.
After the reform and opening up, the first college student and the first military officer appeared in Lingxi Village. When the country resumed the college entrance examination in the first year of the country, among the first batch of students to take the exam, the first college student appeared. At a young age, he was admitted to the highest institution in the imperial capital.
As for the officers, they joined the army when they were young, and when some of their fellow countrymen became martyrs and some became demobilized, they resolutely and successfully became officers after going to the battlefield several times.
The female college student and the military officer are together, and the reputation of Lingxi Village has become even greater since then. Because of the mountains and water, Lingxi Village has been developed into a tourist resort, but it has always maintained its original style, allowing people to travel here. Everyone can say something simple and natural, which makes people linger and forget to return.
Tao Mi sat beside Lingxi Village, watched the fish swimming in the stream, got up and walked towards the village.
"Fang Fei, you're back, where have you been?" Tao Mi just entered the village entrance, and a fat woman greeted her.
"Go for a walk by the river, Aunt Liu, you don't seem to look better every day today." Tao Mi said to the sallow-skinned woman in front of her with her eyes open, not conscious of lying at all, "Did you wipe something? smell good."
"You have a sweet mouth, kid. What else can I wipe at my age? I just washed my face with some foreign soap, and after a while my aunt will come home and cut a piece for you. It will definitely make your face more moist." " Aunt Liu walked into Taomi a few steps to see if no one noticed.
Tao Mi hurriedly refused, "No need for Aunt Liu, I just ask my dad to buy it for me, you can keep yours for yourself, I'll go back first."
"Hey, it just so happens that your parents should also go back. There is a lot of labor today. You can quickly prepare the meal and they can eat the ready-made food. They have to work after a break."
"I know, auntie."
Back home, there are three earthen houses. Their house is bigger than theirs along the way. Tao Mi neatly picked a few vegetables from her vegetable garden, and then found them out of the warehouse. Dried eggplant dried last year, there are two dishes in total, although both are vegetarian, but the oil and water can be quite enough for this era.
After it was done, put it on the table, go back to the room, lock the door and lie on the kang, and began to accept the whole plot.
What she accepted at the riverside just now was the memory of the original owner. The original owner's name was Shen Fangfei, the daughter of the village head of Lingxi Village. She is Shen Cheng's only daughter, so she can get whatever she wants.
She has never worn old clothes, eats the best food, and has never done farm work. Compared with other girls in the village, her face is delicate and her hands are never rough. She is much happier.
When the living conditions are good, it is inevitable that there will be some young lady's temperament, but Shen Fangfei is not a useless young lady, her sweet mouth is recognized by the whole village, and she has a natural smile. Laugh first, although it is not good to do farm work, but housework is very outstanding.
In this day and age, marrying a daughter-in-law is to add to the family. A wife must be capable, such a virtuous person, and Shen Fangfei obviously does not belong to this category, but because Shen Cheng is the village head, there is no need to have one. This is anxious, after all, the emperor's daughter is not just talking about getting married.
But the tragedy was born in this incident. The woman's fear of marrying the wrong man was vividly displayed in Shen Fangfei, because Shen Cheng was the village head, and after Shen Fangfei became an adult, many young people came to propose marriage.
Among them, a young man named Ying Huada caught Shen Cheng's eyes. Ying Huada was from a village not far from Lingxi Village. He was also from the city before, and his parents were intellectuals. And the one who came to the countryside looks good, although he is not the kind of stunning | beautiful man, but he is also good-looking. The most important thing is that both his parents died in his family, and there is only one elderly grandma. When grandma died, Shen Fangfei had the final say.
Originally, Shen Cheng thought that Ying Huada's parents were raped intellectuals, so he should not be bad, so he agreed to the marriage. Who knew that Ying Huada was so young that he had two pictures before and after marriage? face.
He looked like a hardworking guy before marriage, but after marriage he was lazy and didn't do any work. He came later and didn't have any land. Originally, as long as he worked, he would still get dividends every year, but he just didn't do anything. Looking at his boxes of books.
At the beginning, Shen Fangfei still supported it, thinking that there is nothing wrong with a little culture, at least not like the men in the village who are full of swear words, and she can't listen to them.
But gradually she discovered that Ying Huada regarded those boxes of books as treasures and did not allow her to touch them. Once when Shen Fangfei was beating cockroaches, she accidentally touched the books on the ground, and they were not dirty at all. Ying Huada was still reluctant.
From then on, Shen Fangfei discovered that Ying Huada was a problematic person at all. His main task every day was to read books without doing anything. As long as Shen Fangfei mentioned it, Ying Huada would call her a vulgar person. There is no common language with her, and then the two of them sleep in separate rooms.
She sleeps in a separate room and sleeps in a separate room. Shen Fangfei thinks she is right. She also likes educated people, but can education alone be a meal?
Now there is no money in the house every day, and what I eat every day is either her dowry or the things brought back from Shen's house. Even the vegetable garden of Ying's house is deserted because of Ying Huada and grandma's ignorance. It wasn't that she came back with something to eat, she was going to drink the northwest wind now.
Grandma Ying also knew that her grandson had gone too far, so she asked him to coax Shen Fangfei. Shen Fangfei thought that her life would still be the same, so she forgave Ying Huada.
But after all, there was a lump in his heart. Ying Huada still didn't do anything after that, but he ate no less than anyone else. Half of the meals Shen Fangfei cooked every day went into his stomach. If he was the breadwinner of the family Shen Fangfei didn't know what to say at all, but Ying Huada didn't do anything.
When the college entrance examination was resumed in [-], Ying Huada failed the exam in the first year, but he never lost his mind. He said that the number one scholar in ancient times was admitted at a young age.
At first, Shen Fangfei thought so too, but in the second and third year, Ying Huada failed the rankings, and gradually Ying Huada became a middle-aged greasy uncle.
Seeing Ying Huada who was accomplishing nothing and doing nothing but holding those books every day, Shen Fangfei's dissatisfaction with him reached the peak.
She is not just an ordinary rural girl. When she was young, she had the dream of every girl, to marry the best man, but she chose the wrong one. Apart from that face, Ying Huada has other differences. The roughness of a country boy, the rest of him is useless.
Shen Fangfei and Ying Huada had a falling out. She insisted that Ying Huada not take the college entrance examination again. She wanted Ying Huada to be a man who took care of her family with her father, not a man who could only eat his wife's dowry. You have to work hard.
Ying Huada thought that Shen Fangfei was no longer the good girl who supported him, and she still filed for divorce unexpectedly. Their daughter-in-law of the Ying family may be ignorant, but she cannot be a woman who does not pursue her ideals.
The two divorced, and Ying Huada continued his studies. He didn't know if he passed the exam. He became a thorn in Shen Fangfei's heart, and he didn't want to touch it, and he didn't dare to touch it.
Shen Fangfei returned to the Shen family. Although Shen Cheng is still the head of the village, the conditions of the Shen family are also good, but they are open, and there are endless gossips, especially the sisters who grew up together have been admitted to university and married a The soldier, the two of them were very affectionate, and they returned to their hometowns. Gradually, Shen Fangfei suffered from depression, and soon passed away.
Shen Fangfei's wish is to let Ying Huada know that he is not a material for reading together at all, no matter how many books he reads, he will be at a loss.
After accepting Shen Fangfei's voice, Taomi didn't ask for a plot, she didn't need to know the plot.
Since Shen Fangfei was born, she had no worries about eating and drinking in the era of poor supplies. Marrying Ying Huada can be called a tragedy, not only the tragedy of Shen Fangfei, but also the tragedy of this era.
It is said that the reform and opening up, but why are women still receiving rumors after divorce, and Ying Huada can still study, this is unfair.
"Fang Fei?" After Mother Shen came back, she saw Tao Mi lying on the kang from the window and yelled inside. Seeing that Tao Mi didn't respond, she asked suspiciously, "Why is this child asleep now?"
After that, I went to eat, and after a short rest, the two of them went to work on the ground again.
Tao Mi got up and looked at the whole house. Now Shen Fangfei is 16 years old, and the time is [-] years. There are still two years before Shen Fangfei marries Ying Huada. She does not plan to marry Ying Huada. As for revenge She wasn't prepared either. To treat a person like Ying Huada, as long as you are taller than him and you don't take him seriously, that is the best punishment.
Tao Mi remembers that when Shen Fangfei first married Ying Huada, the people in the village were uneducated at that time, and the village wanted him to be the only person who could read some words to work as an accountant in the brigade, but he didn't Cut to the company of those mud-legged and foul-mouthed people, he was directly rejected.
Just because Shen Fangfei told the village chief about this, he had a cold war with Shen Fangfei for a long time, thinking that Shen Fangfei had belittled him.
He's been evicted from the city, and he's still pretentious, and that's his own problem.
"Fangfei, after the rain, there are a lot of mushrooms growing on the mountain, let's go together." Taomi was in a daze in the yard, but Liu Lantong walked into the yard with a basket and said.
Tao Mi looked over, and saw a girl in a plain shirt walking towards her, smiling at Yan Yan's appearance, making people happy upon seeing her, "Okay, just wait for me."
This is Shen Fangfei's best friend, who later became the first female college student in Lingxi Village to be admitted to university, and later married a soldier.
When she was a child, Shen Fangfei always thought that she was better than her. She was the only child in the family, and Liu Lantong's family had older brothers and younger brothers. They couldn't compare to her in terms of external conditions or appearance. Who knew that the fate of the last two people was completely opposite. .
The two went up the mountain together. Legend has it that a long time ago, this was a barren mountain, and there were wild boars and wolves in it. No one dared to go up the mountain. All of them were eaten, and now it really became a barren mountain.
There are only thick and thick trees in the forest, which have no meaning of biological activity at all. Originally, the villagers would have to cut down these fruitless trees for farming, but the old village head said that this tree is to protect Lingxi Village, from ancient times to the present. For hundreds of years, it has never been cut down.
It is also these trees that raised those wild animals. Without some wild animals, they would have starved to death, so they would not be allowed to cut them down. This is why so many century-old trees have been preserved.
"The trees here are so tall and thick, and they look like they've only been around for decades." Liu Lantong said in shock as soon as he got outside the woods.In later generations, not to mention the century-old trees, even the few decades-old trees will be rare, replaced by various high-rise buildings and exhaust smog.
"You don't know?" This is not a forbidden place, how could she look like she had never seen it before.
Listening to Taomi's question, Liu Lantong quickly restrained her expression, "Well, I haven't been here for a long time, I feel like I haven't seen these for a long time."
"We have been running around in this forest since we were young. If you really don't know, I should suspect that there is something wrong with your head." Tao Mi smiled and walked into the forest first.
Liu Lantong at the back patted her chest, so dangerous, she almost revealed her secrets, but this little friend is really smart, and she noticed the abnormality from her words.
Poplar trees are the most numerous in the woods, and naturally poplar trees have the most mushrooms, almost under every tree, so you don't need to work hard to find them.
Every now and then the two picked two full baskets, seeing that Liu Lantong still wanted to go inside, Tao Mi grabbed her, "Don't go in, what if you encounter danger?"
Of course, the danger Taomi mentioned was not encountering wild boars and wolves, but the traps set by someone before, and the more she went inside, the more traps she saw. And there are all kinds of bear traps, which will be very troublesome if you encounter them.
Liu Lantong thought for a while, "But I want to go and have a look, why don't you go back first." She went in not only to pick up something, but also to see what was inside. She used to be a Caifeng painter, even if you see this kind of century-old tree, it is a single tree, and you have never seen a forest.
It's a pity that I don't have a paintbrush now, otherwise I must paint this beautiful scenery.
"Then let me go in with you, and we will take care of each other."
Liu Lantong nodded, and the two of them walked deep into the forest together. Along the way, Liu Lantong was shocked by the age of the surrounding trees, but because of Taomi's presence, she had to hide her surprise, but her eyes kept lingering on the trees , never left.
"Fang Fei, do you know when these trees grew?"
"I don't know, but I heard from my father that some people wanted to cut down these trees for farming, but the old village head disagreed, saying that it was because of these trees that they supported so many wild boars and pheasants, so that the people of Lingxi Village a few years ago It won’t starve to death, and I heard that because there are wolves in this forest, no one has ever come to cut it.”
Hearing what Taomi said, Liu Lantong was even more shocked, "These trees must be hundreds of years old."
It takes ten years for a tree to grow people for a hundred years, and a tree that is hundreds of years old. Although no one takes care of it, it can grow naturally in nature, which is also a very wonderful existence.
Looking at the big trees in the sky, Liu Lantong really wished to have a pen in his hand now, to be able to draw all the scenes he saw, so that these natural landscapes would come alive on paper, so that they would not be cut down in the future. I didn't know there was such a magnificent sight.
I've never heard of this village before, but the whole country is so big, it's normal for her not to know something, and maybe she has changed her name after she grows up.
But she knows that there will never be such a thick tree in future generations. If there were any, it would have been reported a long time ago. As long as she thinks that these will disappear in the future, she will feel distressed for a while.
She is a style painter, and what she paints is not only beautiful scenery, but also history, some cultures that cannot be captured by a camera, it is really a pity.
Liu Lantong, who was in a complicated mood, didn't notice his feet, and accidentally fell into it.
"Oh……"
Tao Mi heard the voice and turned her head, Liu Lantong was no longer there, only the mushrooms scattered on the ground, "Lantong?"
"I'm here."
Hearing the voice, Tao Mi walked over carefully, and pushed through the grass, but she didn't expect it to be a trap. This trap seemed to have some ideas, but the surrounding area was already covered with grass, and even the depth was deeper than what they saw before. It is estimated that it is almost two meters.
But fortunately, there is soil underneath, otherwise Liu Lantong would fall down like this, even if he survived, he would be crippled, "How are you? Did you twist your foot?"
Liu Lantong tried to move, "The feet are fine, you can find someone to save me, I will definitely not be able to climb this high."
Her feet were fine, but her clothes were torn, but fortunately, a tree branch was inserted across the side, which made a barrier. Without this buffer, she would not be so safe and sound.
Tao Mi looked around, it was almost approaching the top of the mountain, she went down the mountain as fast as she could and had to come back again, it must have been dark already, her gaze fell on a trap beside her, and she walked over.
There was a hemp rope on the side of the trap, and there was a trap under the hemp rope. Taomi yanked it on, took off the trap, walked over and said, "I found a rope, see if I can pull you Come up."
"Okay." Liu Lantong hesitated and agreed.
Taomi threw the rope down, and Liu Lantong tied it around her waist. She didn't know how long the rope was, and she didn't dare to tie it too much, so she just wrapped|wound it around. Fortunately, her motor cells have always been good, and she climbed up in a few moments half.
The lower part of the soil is relatively firm, and she can step on it, but the upper part of the soil is softer, and the grass grows on the heel is not tight. She checked and pulled it loose several times, so that it did not fall off.
After finally touching the mouth of the trap, Tao Mi dragged her hand up, and Liu Lantong, who fell on the ground, was already covered in dirt, and even scratched by a branch.
"Thank you, Fang Fei, if it weren't for you, I really wouldn't be able to climb up."
"It's okay, the sun is about to set, let's go back quickly."
"Don't worry, let me see your hand. Although I'm not fat, I'm not light. Your hand is fine." As Liu Lantong took Taomi's hand, he found that it was just a little red. The skin is not broken at all, and looking at other places, the skin is thin and tender, and it doesn't look like the kind that is full of calluses and is not afraid of hemp rope.
"I'm fine, so don't worry about it." She had just used her internal energy, and if it was a quarter of an hour later, even the red would have disappeared.
"You are really a natural beauty. You can tell from your hand that you are the hand of Miss Da." Liu Lantong picked up the scattered mushrooms and put them in the basket again, "By the way, where did you find the rope just now? "
"Beside those traps, I thought that if the traps were so deep, I wouldn't leave nothing behind, so I searched for them with an attitude of trying, but I didn't expect to find them." Taomi said with a smile.
Humans are higher animals. They are higher than other animals because they use various tools to make their lives easier. The traps get deeper and deeper. People who don’t have skills can’t climb up without using any tools. , so she looked for it.
Liu Lantong walked towards the traps that Taomi had mentioned, looked at them and immediately said in pleasant surprise, "Fang Fei, there is a chicken here."
Taomi walked over and looked under the trap, and there was indeed a chicken lying down, its feet were caught by trappers, it was alive, but it seemed to be about to die soon, Liu Lantong immediately said pleasantly, "Our luck is really good! Yes, it just so happens that your hand is broken, I will use this chicken to mend it for you."
"Hey……"
Just when Taomi stopped the exit, Liu Lantong had already jumped down, and a few seconds later, he threw the chicken and the trap up together. Taomi saw that there were still two chickens.
And the trap was only more than one meter long, and Liu Lantong climbed up in a few moments, making her already dirty clothes even more dirty, "I'll fill you up with these two chickens."
"You treat me as confinement, and I need to use two chickens to make up my body." Taomi put the hen into Liu Lantong's basket, just as she had just sprinkled a lot of mushrooms into the trap, filling the gap, "You pick The one that arrives is yours, and if you give me one, I will already take advantage of it."
"How can I do that? You saved me just now. Even if it is one for each person, I will give you this hen. The old hen is the best, and there is not much meat on the rooster." Although meat is a luxury in this era But isn't her life-saving grace not as good as a chicken?
Taomi smiled and prevented Liu Lantong from changing back, "Don't be polite to me, anyone would drag you up, there is no life-saving grace, let's go, let's stay in the woods after the sun goes down It’s hard to go out inside.”
"That's fine, but I will remember the grace of saving my life. In the future, I will use my help, just say it, the little girl is definitely unambiguous."
When the two went down the mountain, Liu Lantong looked at Taomi's back, and suddenly had a feeling that it was true. When she fell down just now, to be honest, she was a little scared. After all, how deep was the pit? But Taomi was like Nothing is the same.
He calmly found a rope to pull her up, calmly, as if he could handle everything with ease, not at all the coquettishness that those people said in the morning.
When I got home, Taomi dried the mushrooms in the yard. It is not the hottest time of the year, but the temperature is enough to dry the mushrooms.
The same Liu Lantong also started to work when she got home. No matter before or now, she has never been in contact with such a thing as killing chickens, so she put it aside, just washed the mushrooms, and then started cooking.
Same as Taomi's situation, Liu Lantong is also the only daughter in the family, but the difference is that Taomi is an only child. Liu Lantong has an older brother and a pair of twin brothers below. Although her parents are also very good to her, but she Haihuasi Take responsibility for taking care of your brother.
After everyone came back at night, Liu Lantong talked about her and the top of Taomi Mountain. When she heard that she fell into the trap, she also gasped. The animal trap, Liu's mother also told Liu Lantong that she was caught in the animal trap, and her whole leg rotted in the end.
Liu Lantong knew that it was because of the bacterial infection on the trap, so she naturally wouldn't let such a thing happen to her, so she changed the subject happily.
Stewed pheasant and mushrooms. After a full meal, everyone blocked in their room. Liu Lantong heard the sigh of the parents next door, and the snoring of the two younger brothers next door. They also sighed, closed their eyes and began to sleep.
She was an orphan in her previous life. After she grew up, she began to collect folk songs everywhere. It can be said that she is a nobody. Who knew that one day she would be passed down here. No matter how hard life is, she finally has a home, and In two more years, as long as it takes two years, everything will be fine.
With such a beautiful mood, Liu Lantong entered the dream.
On the other side of the village, Taomi was also lying on the kang, listening to the frogs and cicadas outside, she had a feeling of peace in the years, today she and Liu Lantong went to the top of the mountain, she had a feeling, she felt a bit of aura, although Not sure yet, but she was sure she wouldn't feel this way all of a sudden.
And this Liu Lantong doesn't seem to be simple.
Her words and deeds are not like an ordinary girl. The most important thing is that she was surprised when she saw those trees. People are only surprised when they see unexpected things, people or things, but Obviously, Liu Lantong grew up in Lingxi Village since he was a child. Although he doesn't go up the mountain often, he definitely hasn't never seen him.
Different from the ordinary girls in the village, and the first female college student admitted to university, suddenly a bold idea flooded into her mind, Liu Lantong also came through time travel?
Mimi in the space turned over and continued to sleep soundly.
Tao Mi also closed her eyes and started to sleep, whether it has nothing to do with her or not.
On the second day, Taomi went to the field with Shen Cheng and his wife to sow seeds. During the short period of busy farming, almost everyone was dispatched to do more work before the sun came out in the morning. In the hottest afternoon, they could rest under the trees. Take a break.
As soon as Taomi came, several girls of similar age came over, "Fang Fei, why did you come out?"
"Why can't I come out?" Although the original owner was a bit more coquettish, it's not like he can't do anything.
"That's right. Why can't Fang Fei come out? We're all so busy, so there's nothing wrong with Fang Fei coming to help." Another girl said.
"I didn't say no, I just thought that Fang Fei might not be able to do it."
"Fang Fei, if you don't know how to do it, I'll teach you. You're so smart, you'll definitely be able to learn it in no time."
Liu Lantong continued to do the work in hand, and smiled unconsciously when she heard the chirping voice of the little girl not far away. What she heard today was completely different from what she heard yesterday. Those who don't know would never think of talking about someone.
Yesterday it was sour to say that she is a squeamish young lady who does nothing, but now she is said to be smart and can do everything, it is really two faces.
"No need, I know all these things, you guys go to work too." Said Tao Mi broke through the siege and came to Liu Lantong's side.
Liu Lantong shrugged and smiled, continuing to be busy with manual work.
These girls only need to fish the seeds out of the water and put them into another water with potion, which is a rare and easy job.
"Plant a grain of millet in the spring, harvest ten thousand seeds in the autumn, there are no idle fields in the world, and the peasants will starve to death, sad and sad!" A male voice came from the side.
Tao Mi looked over and saw a boy in a black tunic suit walking over, with a pair of eyes on his face and a book in his hand, as if he was very educated.
The pupils shrank violently, Ying Huada actually saw him here.
"Ying Huada, what does this poem mean? Why is it so sad?" A girl who was talking to Taomi just now asked Ying Huada with a smile.
Ying Huada closed the book, "The meaning of this poem is to express what you are doing now. Plant a grain of millet in the spring and reap ten thousand seeds in the autumn. When you plant a seed in the spring, you can harvest in the autumn. [-] grains of rice, as for the sorrow I mentioned, no matter how hard you work, there are no idle fields in the world, and there is still not enough food every year. No matter how hard you work, you can’t even fill your stomach. You say yes Not sorrow."
"It's really epic." While saying that, Ying Huada looked at the sky, as if resenting the injustice of God.
"That's right, we work so hard every day, and the food we get every year is so little, it's not enough to eat at all."
After Ying Huada finished speaking, someone immediately agreed. Liu Lantong searched the memory in his head carefully, and found that he didn't know this person at all, so he walked to Taomi, "Fangfei, do you know who this person is?"
Tao Mi twitched the corner of her mouth, "A city resident, he went to the next village to seek refuge a few years ago, a guy who doesn't work in limbs and doesn't know the grain."
Regarding Taomi's evaluation, Liu Lantong nodded in agreement. From the few words he said, she could feel that he was not a serious person.
Of course, this seriousness refers to people who do business, just like they are busy with farming.
In the village, people of Ying Huada's age can be regarded as an adult's labor force. He is not a local householder. Could it be possible that he can have food by moaning and groaning casually among the girls like this?
Taomi's voice was not loud, but not too low, everyone present could hear her, Ying Huada set her gaze on Taomi, "Girl, did I offend you in any way?"
"No."
"Since I didn't offend you, why did you slander me so much?" It's really disgusting to say that about him.
Taomi hooked her lips again, "Did I slander you? Am I wrong? Didn't you go to Liujia Village to take refuge? And can your limbs work hard? Do you know the grains? Tell me about them What do they look like?"
"Of course I know. As the name suggests, five grains are five kinds of crops."
If Ying Huada didn't roll his eyes around when he answered, Taomi might believe that he really knows what five grains are, and even claims to be a scholar. He doesn't even know what the most common five grains are, so why is he so proud? Vigorous?
"Then what five crops did you say?"
"You..." How could he know what such a vulgar thing is?
"I'm not one of the five grains." Taomi took two steps forward and looked at Ying Huada in front of her, "Everyone in Lingxi Village knows what five grains are, and they are all more educated than you, a scholar, how dare you say that? Are you a scholar?"
"I don't believe you all know." It's really disgusting, to say that about him, he is not a scholar, are these mud legs?
Tao Mi tilted her head to look at a shy girl next to her and said, "Little fish, tell him what five grains are. If you tell him, you will be better than a 'scholar'."
Xiaoyu, who was named by Taomi, looked at Taomi, and smiled shyly when he received Taomi's encouraging gaze, "Five grains are five kinds of crops, rice is rice, millet is millet, and millet is yellow rice Wheat is wheat, and Shu is soybeans. The old village chief said that we are all farmers, and even though food is in short supply, we must not forget our roots, so we knew this when we could walk.”
"That's right, we are farmers, so of course we can't forget what we support ourselves." Tao Mi looked at Ying Huada, "And what you said about the farmers starving to death, although what Li Shen meant was the same. It is said that the farmer has no grain in his own hands, but what he means is that the farmer has handed over all the grain to the rich and the rich, and now we do not produce much grain from our own land, so there is no comparison between the two.”
"As for the sorrow you mentioned, it's just the sorrow you imagined. In my opinion, there is nothing sad about us people working with our own hands. What is sad is you. If you don't work hard with your limbs, you don't know the grain. If you read a few poems here, you will be regarded as an educated person, since you are so educated, why do you still eat these sad food?"
"You..." He wanted to swear, like the young people in the village, but he couldn't, because they were not the same kind of people, "I'm a good man and don't fight with women, so I don't care about you, an ignorant woman."
After saying that, she turned and left, but Tao Mi still said, "The chairman said that women hold up half the sky. Are you discriminating against women?"
Ying Huada didn't answer, but his pace became faster and faster, as if he was running away.
