Chapter 316 It's Too Late To Regret

Seeing that Zhou Zheng was so focused on his own sake, Zheng Bin was very moved, but he didn't want to accept such differential treatment, and wanted to work with Zhou Zheng and Wang Dali, so he resolutely refused: "How can you do it? , let me stay in the yard, I definitely can't stand it! Although my body is thin, but because I often play football, I am not as weak as you think. You will know when I start working later, I The physical fitness is still quite good.”

Zhou Ming, who was standing on the shelf, after listening to Zhou Zheng's words, immediately understood Zhou Zheng's good intentions, and he said in an elder's tone: "Zheng Bin, just listen to Zhou Zheng, this job is not much, the three of us have It will be done in about ten minutes, so you can go to the courtyard and stay there. If you are bored, you can go for a walk in the street. Although our village is quite small and the scenery is not particularly good, it still has a strong local flavor. Yes, you can feel it when you walk around."

Zhou Zheng hit the iron while the iron was hot, and walked up and down to push Zheng Bin: "Don't be brave with me. During the game in the afternoon, you will hardly be able to walk at the last moment. Go to the courtyard and have a good rest, or you won't even be able to move until the evening meal." I don’t even have the energy to eat!”

Zheng Bin still wanted to refuse, but he was not as strong as Zhou Zheng, who pushed him out of the house as soon as Zhou Zheng exerted his strength.

Seeing that Zhou Ming and Zhou Zheng were trying to persuade Zheng Bin, Wang Dali was embarrassed to stand aside and said nothing, he followed Zhou Zheng out of the room, then looked at Zheng Bin solemnly and said: "Brother Zheng, don't be polite to everyone. , stay in the yard, if you have nothing to do, you can help Uncle Li and Aunt Li do some work within your capacity, and the work in the house will be covered by me and Zhou Zheng, so don't come in the house .”

"Did you see? Our captain has spoken! If you don't even listen to the captain's words, you will be expelled from the team if you go back carefully."

Zhou Zheng put his hands on Zheng Bin's shoulders and said with a smirk.

Zheng Bin had no choice but to nod and agreed to rest in the yard.

Zhou Ming in the house and Uncle Li in the yard saw that Zhou Zheng and his three children had such a good relationship, they nodded in relief and showed kind smiles.

After Zheng Bin settled down, Zhou Zheng pulled Wang Dali into the room together, rolled up his sleeves, and prepared to fight hard.

Zheng Bin stood awkwardly in the middle of the yard alone, not knowing what to do for a while, seeing Li Sanshu smiling at himself, he hurried to Li Sanshu's side, and asked gently: "Li Sanshu, what work do you have?" Do you need my help? If you have something, just say it, otherwise I will stay here alone, and I really don’t feel very good. "

Uncle Li laughed loudly: "You are also an honest kid, don't think so much, just stay honest, and Uncle Li treats you and Zhou Zheng to eat delicious food after work."

Zheng Bin smiled wryly, and could only squat aside, watching Uncle Li sift the sand.

After a while, Third Aunt Li came out of the kitchen. Seeing Zheng Bin squatting outside, she hurried to the front and pulled Zheng Bin up: "Young man, why are you squatting in the yard, be careful to get your clothes dirty?" .”

Zheng Bin scratched his head and said with an embarrassed smile: "Zhou Zheng and the others kicked me out. They thought I was poor in physical fitness, so they didn't let me work in the house, and third uncle didn't let me work either. Just sit here and squat."

Third Aunt Li didn't say a word, pulled Zheng Bin and walked into the kitchen: "They despise you, but Third Aunt doesn't despise you. Come, come to the kitchen and help Third Aunt light the fire, and Third Aunt will cook something delicious for you."

"Okay, but I haven't burned a fire, no."

Zheng Bin was embarrassed again.

"You can learn if you don't know it. It's not difficult to make a fire. Come on, Third Aunt will teach you."

Third Aunt Li looked carefree, she took out a bench, put it on the ground, asked Zheng Bin to sit on it, and squatted on the ground herself, poking the stove with a fire stick.

"Have you seen it? When the fire is about to go out, poke it with a fire stick. When the flames come up, you don't need to worry about it. It's as simple as that."

Zheng Bin nodded, and suddenly understood the essentials of lighting a fire. He took the fire stick from Aunt Li's hand, and began to play the role of the fire boy.

Zheng Bin is usually very serious about everything he does. At this time, Aunt Li gave him the task of lighting the fire, and he immediately started the fire with concentration. .

Third Aunt Li stood in front of the chopping board cutting vegetables, looking back at Zheng Bin while doing the cutting, muttering in her heart from time to time, this young man is really energetic, his size is his size, his appearance is his appearance, he looks polite, he speaks politely, and I heard from Zhou Zheng just now that his academic performance is very good. Their family doesn't know how to cultivate such a young man. If only I had a daughter, I will definitely recruit this young man as my son-in-law.

After cutting the vegetables in her hands, Aunt Li turned around and left the kitchen. After two or three minutes, she came back quietly again. After entering the kitchen, she looked out of the kitchen twice like a thief. Then he walked behind Zheng Bin, took out two handfuls of candy snacks from his pocket, and stuffed them into Zheng Bin's hands.

"My child, this is the delicious food that the third aunt secretly saved. While the two debt collectors in our family are not at home, you should eat it quickly and try it."

Zheng Bin's face turned red and turned pale, he was so embarrassed that he was dying, and he said to Aunt Li, how old am I, and you still treat me like a child?
He lowered his head and looked at the things in his hands. They were nothing more than some candies and chocolates, and some snacks with particularly high calories. Zheng Bin seldom eats such things. I don't like sweets.

At this moment, seeing that Aunt Li gave these things to him kindly, he couldn't say that he didn't like these things, so he could only smile wryly, and said bravely, "Thank you, Aunt Li."

"Thank you, hurry up and eat, don't let that kid Zhou Zheng see, that kid is quick with his mouth and hands, he's about to catch his shadow, you don't even want to eat it, you have to let him eat it."

Zheng Bin laughed twice, reluctantly opened those snacks, stuffed them into his mouth mechanically, and pretended to be very happy, and forced a smile after eating something he didn't like. It's hard to die.

Although physical and psychological are not very good, Zheng Bin still felt the warm and hospitable side of the people in the mountains through these small things, and he felt a warm feeling in his heart.

Seeing Zheng Bin eating so happily, Aunt Li felt happier than she ate. While she was doing the work in hand, she chatted with Zheng Bin casually, asking him what he did at home and if he had any brothers. Sister, how did you meet Zhou Zheng? Zhou Zheng is a child who doesn't listen at school.

Zheng Bin tried his best to tell everything he knew, but he deliberately kept the negative news about Zhou Zheng, because he felt that it would bring trouble to Zhou Zheng.

Compared with Zheng Bin's leisurely, Wang Dali and Zhou Zheng obviously did not have such good luck.

After the two of them returned to the house, they were immediately assigned tasks by Zhou Ming. Zhou Zheng was in charge of standing on the shelf and helping Zhou Ming hold the plasterboard, while Wang Dali was in charge of standing on the ground carrying the plasterboard and handing tools to the two people.

Although the gypsum boards on the suspended ceiling were not too heavy, they were huge, and it took a lot of effort to move them around by one person. After moving three or four pieces back and forth, Wang Dali was already panting and sweating all over his body.

According to Wang Dali's physical fitness, doing these jobs is not a problem at all, but this time is a special situation. Not only did Wang Dali play a fierce football game in the afternoon, but he has not eaten seriously until now. He was already so hungry that his chest was pressed against his back, not to mention working, even standing there honestly, he felt a little exhausted.

Zhou Zheng saw that Wang Dali was really tired, so he jumped off the shelf decisively, and asked Wang Dali to go up to help Zhou Ming help the gypsum boards, while he himself began to move the gypsum boards for the ceiling into the house one after another.

After getting on the shelf, Wang Dali finally recovered. He watched Zhou Zheng move the plaster boards in one after another, thinking that this kid finally has a conscience, and he knows to take over for me for a while, otherwise, if I keep moving like this, It is estimated that this little life is explained here.

With the joint help of Zhou Zheng and Wang Dali, Zhou Ming quickly completed the scheduled work, and he could easily complete the rest of the finishing work by himself.

Wang Dali got off the shelf in a desperate effort, leaned on the wall and gasped for breath.

Zhou Zheng was also exhausted from carrying the plasterboard into the house one after another. After the work was done, he also squatted on the ground to rest and recover his energy.

Zhou Ming stood on the shelf and continued to be busy with the work in hand. He looked back at Zhou Zheng and Wang Dali, and found that both of them were very tired. Seeing that the young man's physical strength was so poor, Zhou Ming felt a little unhappy: "You two A young man, why is his physical strength so poor? Doing such a little work makes him so tired? How can he get married and start a business as a pillar in the future?"

Wang Dali had a lot of grievances in his heart, but he couldn't speak up against Zhou Zheng's father, so he could only eat Coptis chinensis as a mute, unable to express his suffering.

After Zhou Zheng took a breath, he immediately raised his head and said unconvinced: "Dad, are you hating people to death? Do you know how intense the game we played in the afternoon? I only played half a game. It is estimated that the running distance must be 7000 to [-] meters. My Dali played a whole game, and the running distance is conservatively estimated to be more than [-] meters. You can still help you work with such a large physical exertion, you are satisfied Right? If it were a person with weak physical fitness, he might not even be able to stand up right now."

"Uncle, don't forget, the three of us haven't eaten anything seriously yet, we two brothers can work on an empty stomach."

Wang Dali finally couldn't help it, and said with a forced smile.

Only then did Zhou Ming suddenly understand why the two young men were so tired after doing such a little work. He regretted what he said just now, but it was too late to regret after the words had been spoken.
