Chapter 3
Qian touched her head and said, "it's so easy to open up wasteland, and I'm afraid the grain grown from wasteland is not enough to pay taxes. Your nephews are still young, and the land at home is enough."
"What should I do? The fourth brother made such a big mistake and couldn't kill him. What if he gambled again when he was free?"
Qian thought that if Shiro did such a big mistake, the other sons and daughter-in-law in the family would certainly refuse to accept it, but she really broke people. It's another thing that she doesn't want to give up. She still needs money to cure the injury. That's really heartache.
Qian said, "OK, let your fourth brother go to the ground to open up wasteland tomorrow."
Man Bao was happy, "I'll supervise the fourth brother."
"I think you want to go out and play. There are many snakes and insects in the field. Don't join in the fun. Just let your nephew follow them."
Man Bao: "no, I'm going too."
In the past, she thought her family was very good. She didn't lack food and clothes. She had candy every market day, although she didn't like candy very much.
So she wanted to read before. She felt that reading made her very happy, and Koko had no books for her, so she could only give her sugar.
She had eaten it. Although the sugar was sweeter than that brought back by her second brother from the market, she still didn't like it very much.
But now she knows that their family is still very poor. She has to make money. She is still young. She can't work on the ground or go out to work. The only way to make money is to sell sugar.
But because she was always lazy, she didn't dig vegetables for Koko. Koko hasn't given her sugar for a long time.
By the way, Koko was something that suddenly appeared in her mind. It was last spring that she finally recited the thousand character text completely. Mr. Zhuang was very moved and gave her a stack of thousand character text copied by his hand.
She happily ran home with the manuscript. As soon as she got home, the science department appeared. It said that it was the branch of the encyclopedia Museum, in charge of the biology department, and was accidentally lost here.
It needs to collect many biological species in order to get energy out of the encyclopedia.
At first, man Bao didn't understand. When she had a friend, she said it to her mother happily.
But Qian's dream when she was a child coaxed her for a while.
Man Bao is very smart. She gradually understands that others can't see or hear Keke, so she doesn't mention it anymore. She only thinks that this friend can see and hear.
Koko has been begging her to collect more plants, but man Bao has dug all the vegetables in the garden for it to collect, and even the grass outside the house. It's so tired to walk too far away. She doesn't want to go at all.
For the sake of her friends, she reluctantly went to find some grass she had never seen to Keke, but the family didn't trust her to run outside. Usually, her nephews and nieces can go out to play, but she has been taken by her sister-in-law.
At most, you can only play in the village. You can't go out of the village, let alone in the field.
Man Bao pestered his mother and almost rolled on the ground. Qian's body and mind were tired today. Seeing his daughter like this, he thought that she was not young. It was the most fun time, and he couldn't bear to always restrain her. He nodded reluctantly and said, "OK, go, go, just listen to Wulang and LIULANG, don't run around, and don't bask in the sun for too long, you know?"
Man Bao responded happily.
In the evening, I ate a bowl full of rice and ate up all the dishes with my five brothers, six brothers, nephews and nieces.
In addition to these young children, adults really don't have a good appetite. After saving a little money at home, they returned to extreme poverty overnight. It's strange that they are in a good mood.
Old man Zhou picked up a meal with chopsticks. For the first time, he felt that food was blocking his heart and couldn't eat any more.
At the thought of the fifteen Liang silver, his heart hurt and his eyes were red. Finally, he couldn't help falling off the bowl and beating his fourth son.
After their father beat the fourth, Zhou Dalang couldn't follow him. They had to pick up rice with a smelly face.
The porridge Qian and his daughter-in-law ate together has passed the autumn harvest. Except for men, the family can eat dry. Others eat thin, but the porridge is also very thick, which can at least make people full.
But Qian put down his chopsticks and said, "there's no money at home. I'm flustered. From tomorrow, I don't do dry things at home. I'll do rare ones. The eldest daughter-in-law will put less rice in the future. It's going to winter. In the past, there are still spring and summer."
Little Qian bowed his head.
Looked at man Bao and asked, "what about the sister-in-law? Is she weak and thin?"
Qian gathered his eyebrows and said, "tomorrow you take six kilograms of grain to the school and ask the boss to ask Mr. Zhuang. Later, man Bao eats lunch in the school. The dishes are bought from his own vegetable field. In the future, you can cut two more in the past every day."
Little Kwai should go down, eat fast and fast, and clean up the dishes with the younger brothers.
Man Bao thought it was bad and asked, "Mom, what about them?"
Qian's hand touched her head and said with a smile, "Da Ya, they are in good health. They don't have to eat dry food. You are in poor health. Eat more, or you will get money to buy medicine for you when you are ill."
Big girls and big heads have been instilled with this idea since childhood. My parents told them that my sister-in-law is not in good health. They are not allowed to push her or bully her. They should give her more food and keep fat so that she won't get sick.
Otherwise, if they get sick, they will have to spend money on medicine, and then they will have no money to buy sugar.
So I didn't have any opinion that my sister-in-law ate dry food with my grandfather and father, and they drank thin.
And my sister-in-law is also very good to them. She is younger than them, but she always gives them sugar. They still like my sister-in-law very much.
So when grandma looked at it, they nodded again and again, saying that you should eat more. We can just eat thin food at home.
"There are still some grain strings in the field. We'll find them later and bake them."
"No, we're going to help fourth brother open up wasteland tomorrow." Man Bao said, "but we can find wild fruit to eat."
Old Zhou looked at man Bao and said, "open up wasteland?"
Qian said, "I forgot to tell you that I'll let old four open up wasteland tomorrow. He owes his family money and always has to make some money."
Old Zhou tou didn't think he could make any money by opening up wasteland, but it was good. In case the boy wanted to gamble again, he had to find something to do for him.
So he said, "old five, old six, go with you tomorrow. If he is lazy, beat him for me."
Man Bao volunteered, "Dad, I'll come. Five brothers and six brothers can't beat four brothers."
Lao Zhou smiled, reached out and touched her head and said with a smile, "OK, come here. If your fourth brother dares not to obey, you'll take a stick and beat him."
Man Bao was as happy as if he had received the imperial edict. He went to bed early at night and promised in his mind that Koko would help it find plants that had not been found before, and asked, "you must prepare more sugar for me. I want to sell it."
The system is worried to death. The plants in man Baolu are very common. It hasn't seen the benefits for more than a year. Instead, it has to exchange its remaining points for sugar.
You can't change it. This is a little doll. She wouldn't play this game with it unless there was sugar hanging in front.
Yes, man Bao has always regarded this as a game. He has never thought of using it to reach the peak of his life and achieve any extraordinary goals in life.
For more than a year, the ambition of the system has been almost ground. Fortunately, the host is bound. Even if there is no energy to support it to leave this space and return to its original position, it can still keep running.
Just wait until the host is bigger.
This is the comfort of the system.
No matter how bad it is, the worst result is that when the host dies, it will choose a more ambitious host.
The system stealthily picks up its remaining points and calculates how much sugar it can change for her.
Man Bao thinks he has made an appointment with Koko, so he drags his little quilt and closes his eyes to sleep.
The next day, shortly after the chicken crowed, there was a sound in the yard. Man Bao turned over, arched his small ass into the quilt and continued to sleep.
Farmers always get up early. Even if the autumn harvest is over, the land has to rest.
Moreover, Zhou Dalang, Zhou Erlang and Wednesday Lang all took jobs at the white landlord's house, and they had to go out.
When the sound of "ow" and slapping came from the yard, man Bao finally rubbed her eyes and got up. Her face was red. She went to push the window. When she saw her father pulling her fourth brother out of the house and kicking him on his ass to work, she immediately remembered what happened to yingkoko last night.
Also can't sleep, man Bao immediately climbed out of bed, put on his clothes, pedaled out and said, "fourth brother, wait for me, I'll go with you."
Qian grabbed her and said, "don't worry, wash your face first."
Breakfast was not so early. He had to wait until the sun was half empty. Xiao Qian asked his sister-in-law to wash her face and filled her with a bowl of boiled water. Then he touched an egg and dispersed it for her to drink.
Man Bao drank the egg water with a look of disgust, turned and ran after his fourth brother.
Wulang and others are waiting for her at the door. In the morning, egg water is manbao's welfare, but neither Lao Zhoutou nor Qian.
It is said that my sister-in-law almost died of illness and lived on egg water. Since then, she has kept an egg intact. No one will lose her without her.
The family didn't want to open up any good land on Thursday, so in addition to the main Thursday Lang, they sent a group of children to help him.
For example, Wulang, LIULANG, Da tou and Da Ya of Da Fang, and Er Ya and ER Tou of Er Fang.
Wulang is 14 this year and LIULANG is 12 this year. They are all big and small guys. In the words of the village, they can marry each other. They can have a big fat boy in two years.
Big head and two heads are man Bao's nephews, one nine and one six. Big Ya and two Ya are man Bao's nieces, one eight and one seven.
There are also three heads from the big house, who are also nephews. He is the same age as man Bao. He also wants to go today, but his mother stopped him. He had to take three Ya and four heads to pull weeds in the vegetable garden.
Three Ya is two bedroom, four heads are three bedroom. They are all very young. They are all four years old. It's hard to walk. They can only pull weeds at home.
The mountain road was rugged and manbao was difficult to walk, so Wulang and LIULANG took turns to carry her. Shiro didn't have to think about it. He was injured and could walk to the ground by himself.
