Dressed as a family of cannon fodder, the villain brother is busy opening up wasteland

After dinner, the whole family sat together to brag.

But what was talked about the most was Wen Xiuyi's performance in farming today. One by one, they kept describing the scene of Wen Xiuyi working in the fields to Wen Jun and Wen Nong, who were not involved.

Both of them were suppressing laughter. Wen Nong didn't dare to laugh, and Wen Jun was embarrassed to laugh. In fact, he wouldn't be able to laugh either. Maybe he is not as good as his father.

But the whole family is busy, and he can't hold them back.

"I'm staying at home to help these days." Wen Jun said.

As soon as he said these words, Old Man Wen and Luo Shi were the first to explode.

Old Man Wen refused three times: "No, no, no need."

Luo Shi said sincerely: "You should study your medical skills. You don't have to worry about your family affairs. We are here."

As a result, Wen Xiuyi spoke first before Wen Jun opened his mouth.

"Father, mother, this is wrong for you." He sat upright and said directly: "Xiaojun is also a member of this family. Just because he is studying medicine with Dr. Jin, we cannot do everything he should do. When you take it on yourself, you have to let him know that the family is supporting him, but at the same time, they are also working hard for his future.

Only in this way will he not forget his roots. You are always like this, just let him study medicine well and help him with everything. Are you not afraid of raising another me? "

After Wen Xiuyi finished speaking, he sighed silently in his heart: He raised a white-eyed wolf like his predecessor, but well, his Xiaojun is not the kind of person who can't figure things out clearly. Their Xiaojun is a person who knows how to Grateful child.

Old Man Wen and Luo Shi had worried about Wen Xiuyi all their lives, had spoiled him all their lives, and accommodated him all their lives. But in the end, it was this son who came to tell them that such doting and overbearing were wrong.

For a moment, Luo Shi and Old Man Wen didn't know what to say. Could it be that it was their fault that the boss became like this?

Wen Xiuyi didn't know what the old couple was thinking, so he just said to Wen Jun: "Son, you are right to think so, but you can't just focus on family matters. After all, your studies come first. Just tell Dr. Jin that you are at home." You’ll be busy with farming for two days, and at the end of the two days you’ll go to school for me.”

Wen Jun finally found a chance to interject. The corners of his mouth twitched and he said: "Father, grandpa, grandma, it's not that I won't go, but that Doctor Jin is not free these days. He asked me to go home and read the book by myself first."

Wen Xiuyi was curious: "What is Doctor Jin busy with?"

Wen Jun shook his head: "I don't know the specifics. I just know that there seems to be a distinguished guest from the capital. Shopkeeper Qiu didn't come to the shop during this period. I heard from Hong Hai that since Doctor Jin and shopkeeper Qiu took over this Jishi Hall, This noble man comes every year.”

Wen Xiuyi suddenly realized that it was quite expensive to come from the capital.

"Okay, then you can follow me to the ground for the next few days." Wen Xiuyi waved his hand. As for the time-saving and labor-saving method he had thought about earlier?Let's talk about it after tomorrow. There is no reason why he and his daughter have to suffer this. If his son doesn't feel it, how can he do it?

The next day, Wenjun was replaced by Wenjun. Luo Shi used the reason that her foot injury was not fully healed yet and asked her to take care of the children at home and cook for the workers who built the house. Wenying and Datou are her little helpers.

It seems to be the easiest job, but it is actually the most tedious.

Sure enough, at the end of the day, Dr. Wen, who had always been as calm as Mount Tai, couldn't stand it anymore and asked Professor Wen for advice.

Wen Xiuyi looked proud.

"Hey, you still have to rely on your father and me at the critical moment."

Wen Jun and Wen Yao: "Yes, yes, Professor Wen, you are very knowledgeable and talented. Please give me some advice. I really can't stand it anymore."

Wen Xiuyi chuckled: "Go home first and ask your grandpa if there is any better way now."

The brother and sister both rolled their eyes, which doesn't mean they didn't say anything.

In the evening, when the family was sitting together for a tea party, Wen Xiuyi suddenly asked: "Dad, do we all rely on human labor to work like this? How long will it take? There is no other way. Improve your efficiency? Work faster?"

Old Man Wen was smoking a dry cigarette, and the old lady would only let him take a few puffs in the yard. Old Man Wen cherished this time very much. When he heard Wen Xiuyi asked, he raised his head and glanced at him, and said, "When the time comes, I will." , it’s just that our family doesn’t have that condition.”

"What do you say?" Wen Xiuyi pretended to be listening attentively.

Old Man Wen then continued: "In our village, the village chief has an ox. Naturally, working with oxen is much faster than people. After all, the oxen walks behind, and people only need to hold on to the plow, although it is not very fast. , but compared to manpower, it is already much faster.

However, not all families have such conditions. Those with better conditions will spend money to rent oxen from the village chief’s house or from the neighboring village that has oxen to plow the fields. However, there are conditions, and the oxen must be well taken care of. , after all, a cow is very valuable, and not everyone is willing to buy it.

If you are exhausted, the host family will feel distressed, so under normal circumstances, few people will borrow it if you don't have a particularly good relationship with them.

Without cows, people would have to do it themselves. "

After finishing speaking in one breath, Old Man Wen took another puff, surrounded by smoke, with an expression of enjoyment.

Wen Xiuyi and his children looked at each other and said, "Dad, why don't you go to the village chief's house to rent cattle." Before Old Man Wen and Luo Shi could scold him for being a prodigal, he said, "Don't be impatient, please listen to me. .

Look, our land has doubled now. If we add these ten acres of land to our original land, how long will it take to expand it?There are only so many people in the family. If we tire everyone out, it won’t be worth the loss, right? "

Old Man Wen and Luo Shi fell into silence, both of them seemed to be thinking about this issue.

After a while, Old Man Wen said, "But the village chief's family doesn't necessarily need to borrow it. They also have to work at home. If we wait until their family is done with the work before we borrow it, the land will be frozen. It’s difficult.”

Wen Xiuyi had an idea and said, "Then let's buy a cow ourselves."

As soon as he finished speaking, everyone looked at him, as if looking at a fool. Luo Shi even sneered without raising his head: "You are just a cabbage, and you also buy a cow. You know a cow?" How much does a cow cost? Some people may not be able to afford a cow after working hard for half their lives."

Wen Xiuyi subconsciously asked: "How much?"

Luo Shi finally raised his head, but just rolled his eyes at Wen Xiuyi with disgust, laughed mockingly, and continued to make shoe soles with his head down.

Wen Xiuzhu was afraid that his elder brother would be embarrassed, so he explained to him in a low voice: "In our area, a cow costs at least 15 taels of silver. If you encounter a young, strong and well-raised cow, it is even more expensive."

The father and son looked at each other. Fifteen taels is equivalent to fifteen thousand. Buying a cow can be used as a car in addition to plowing the land. Isn't this equivalent to buying a farm tractor for fifteen thousand.
