Crossing the Farmland Happy Events

Seeing Zhang Dali looking at him suspiciously, Zhang Hezhi smiled knowingly, walked over generously and said, "Brother Wenjie is polite, how do you know, brother Wenjie, do you still remember?"

Zhang Dali glanced at the courtyard of Zhang Dazhuang's house, and his smile was not as natural as before, "I remember it. It's been almost a year since the last time I had a hasty farewell in Anping County, how is little brother He doing well?"

Zhang Hezhi said: "It's okay. How did you know that you left in a hurry that day, and left without saying goodbye to brother Wenjie, just because you had to go back to deal with some matters at home. But now it's all settled. How did you know when you met a nobleman?" blessing."

Zhang Dali frowned slightly, "My lord?"

"Exactly." After Zhang Hezhi said that, he saw a person approaching not far away, he hurriedly smiled and raised his voice and said, "Father, look, I met an acquaintance!"

"Really, then why don't you come in?" Ye Chengliang was stunned decisively when he saw Zhang Dali after speaking, hehehe...

"Hmph~" Zhang Dali didn't expect He Zhi to be called Ye Chengliang's father-in-law, and he was a little disdainful.Previously, he thought that this man must be either rich or noble, and he must be as proud as him, but he didn't know that it was nothing more than that, and he actually recognized people like Ye Chengliang as foster fathers.Ye Chengliang is only a few years older than He Zhi, right? !

Could it be...

Could it be for the sugar side too?Zhang Dali felt that it was possible, after all, the He Zhi he knew was not an idiot.A person who can give Xiao Er a tael of silver as a reward can live in this country for no reason?

Zhang Dali figured this out, and quickly put on a smile on his face, "Little brother He, I have something to do at home and I need to go back early. If you have time, you can come to my place for a sit-down, or you can simply stay at my house. You This is my cousin Zhang Dazhuang's house, although his house is big, but there are many people and animals, so it might be a bit crowded."

Niu Niu led Rhubarb and stood aside, she was looking at Zhang Hezhi a little at a loss, but she heard that Zhang Dali's words were so unpleasant, she couldn't help but curled her lips and said: "Tch, the urn is still crowded. , don’t you have to live in sooner or later?!”

Zhang Dali's face darkened, and he was about to say a few words, but Ye Chengliang took a step forward and rubbed Niu Niu's head and said, "Don't interrupt when the adults are talking, go in and let Ah Da see the rhubarb."

Niuniu glared at Zhang Dali bitterly and went in.

Zhang Hezhi's gaze briefly followed the sharp figure, with a half-smile expression on his face.Unexpectedly, after seeing her for a few days, this girl's mouth became sharp again. Every time I saw her, she seemed to bark her teeth and claws like a mother cat. It was not others, but his heart that was irritating!

Zhang Dali took a deep breath, but he couldn't say anything more, thinking that He Zhi is a smart person, he must understand what he meant, so he greeted him briefly and left, thinking in his heart that if He Zhi really went to his house, what would he do? How should he talk about Tangfangzi's problem, how did Zhizhen get close to Naye Chengliang, and how should he provoke them.

But in this room, Ye Chengliang put his arms around Zhang Hezhi's neck and whispered, "Little Zhi, you told your adoptive father earlier that there is a girl you like, can't it be Niuniu?"

Zhang Hezhi coughed lightly, but didn't hide it, and said bluntly, "Yes."

Ye Chengliang patted the eldest son on the back, "Good boy, you have good eyesight! But if you really have ideas, I have to say hello to your Aunt Shi Ling quickly, otherwise this girl might not belong to you. She looks good and quick , there are many people who like her."

Zhang Hezhi was a little embarrassed when he heard the words, and said for a while, "Oh."

Ye Chengliang smiled, "Oh, what do you mean? Let foster father talk about it?"

Zhang Hezhi: "Thank you foster father."

Ye Chengliang patted Zhang Hezhi on the shoulder, "We are father and son, we can just talk straight to each other, what are you embarrassed about? This matter is left to the adoptive father. But you have to get close to people yourself, don't you She likes her, she doesn't like you." Although he felt that for such an outstanding person as his son, those who didn't like him were all blind...

But there is always an event in life!

Zhang Hezhi felt that what his adoptive father said made sense.The few times he came to Hongsha Village before, he was always in the dark, and he never showed his face in front of the villagers, except for a few family members, so the girl didn't know him very well.

Niuniu took Rhubarb to the yard, and she was used to bears, dogs, and wolves everywhere in the yard, so it was no surprise.She is very courageous, but she is not afraid to enter this courtyard like ordinary girls.

Zhang Hezhi found the place where Niuniu was, saw her squatting there watching Rhubarb and Ada chasing each other, and the blackheads also running around from time to time, so he went and sat down not far from her, and said, "Do you like them? "

Niuniu smiled with two big pear holes on her face, she looked very cute, she said: "Well, I came here to take a look when I have nothing to do. Are you brother Hezhi?"

Zhang Hezhi nodded, "You know me?"

Niu Niu said with some embarrassment, "I heard Xiao Lizi mention it."

Zhang Hezhi raised his eyebrows, "What did he say about me?"

Niu Niu said: "I was once bullied by the children in the village, and he said that his elder brother is amazing. I asked him what his elder brother's name was, and he said it was Zhang Hezhi. I asked my grandma and found out that it was Zhang Hezhi."

At this time, Xiao Lizi came over with his legs upside down, and threw his head into Zhang Hezhi's arms, "Brother, brother, why are you playing with sister Niuniu without Xiao Lizi?" After speaking, he suddenly struggled to get out of Zhang Hezhi's arms. After coming out, she ran into Niu Niu's arms again, "Sister Niu Niu, I won't be with big brother!"

Zhang Hezhi asked dumbfoundedly, "Why?"

Little Lizi said: "Sister Niuniu helped me fight! You won't take me with you when you leave! Sister Niuniu is so powerful that all the children in the village are afraid of her!"

Niuniu: "..."

Zhang Hezhi glanced at Niu Niu, and couldn't help but notice that the sun was shining on her face, making the girl look warm and tight.

But Niuniu couldn't sit still anymore, she got up and let Xiao Lizi go and said, "It's getting late, I have to take Rhubarb home." After speaking, she called to Rhubarb, "Duhuang, we have to go home."

Rhubarb was having a good time with Ah Da, now he heard the call of the master, hesitant, it felt that it should follow the master, but it was reluctant to part with Ah Da.

Niu Niu stood for a long time and saw that Da Huang was not moving, so she said, "Then why don't you stay here, and I will pick you up tomorrow."

Zhang Hezhi got up at this moment and whistled loudly, "Ada, come here."

Ah Da hurriedly ran to Zhang Hezhi, stood up and handed him the paw.Zhang Hezhi patted Ah Da on the head, and then said to Niuniu: "Let's go, I'll see you off."

"Then what about me?" Xiao Lizi looked up at Zhang Hezhi, "Brother, I want to go too!"

"Well, big brother hug." Zhang Hezhi picked up the younger brother, and then headed out the door.As soon as he left, Ah Tianran followed. Da Huang saw that his master and his lover had left, so he also followed in a hurry.

The two older children and a younger child went to Bai Yousheng's house in silence.Zhang Hezhi saw Niuniu go back to the house, greeted Shi Ling who came out to pour water, and then took Ada back.Little Lizi Houer said to him: "Brother, Dahuang is here again!"

At this moment, Niuniu shouted at the door: "Brother Hezhi, take the rhubarb away, and I'll pick it up tomorrow!"

Zhang Hezhi smiled and said, "Okay."

After Ye Chengliang came back, Shi Ling hadn't had time to take a look. It's inconvenient to have a baby at home!So this is also the first time she met Zhang Hezhi.She was stunned when the child spoke to her so suddenly just now, where did such a handsome child come from? !So as soon as the door was closed, he hurriedly asked his daughter, "Niu Niu, how do you know him?"

Niu Niu said: "I've known him since he came. Besides, Uncle A Liang calls him by his name. How could I not know. Xiao Lizi keeps talking about his elder brother in my ears all day long."

Shi Ling bit her lips, and said a little harshly: "You are not allowed to run to your Uncle A Liang's house in the future, although your Uncle Da Zhuang and Uncle A Liang have nothing to say to our family, but you are still a It's not good for a half-grown girl to always go to other people's houses to be discussed by outsiders. Besides, this piece of Hezhi is here, you two are about the same age, and you can't go."

Niu Niu said sullenly, "Got it, mother."

That night, Ye Chengliang said to Zhang Dazhuang: "I said Dazhuang, the girl our son likes is a girl from Shi Ling's sister-in-law's family. Do you think it's okay? Hahaha, it really suits me."

Zhang Dazhuang was taking off his shoes, but now he was a little confused, "When did the two of them meet?"

Ye Chengliang was not too clear about it, so he guessed and said, "He Zhi met Niu Niu by chance in the first few times, but he was tight-lipped and didn't tell us at that time. But I think it is, I will ask him today Now, do you want to tell Niuniu's house, but this kid really didn't object."

Zhang Dazhuang was silent for a moment, "Then you should talk to sister-in-law Shi Ling first about this matter. I guess Niuniu didn't mention her husband's family. But there are many people in this village who like her. The uncles also said that we must tell this girl a good family in the future, and I guess some people have inquired about it early in the morning."

Ye Chengliang naturally knew about this, after all, no news could be hidden in this village.But there is a problem that he is quite worried about, "But what do you think if our son changes his mind in the future? They are only eleven or twelve years old after all, and they haven't been fully identified yet."

Zhang Dazhuang laughed when he heard it, "What's the hurry, even if this happens, it will be several years before the children get married, but I just want you to tell sister-in-law Shi Ling, so that the two families will have an idea in their hearts .”

When Ye Chengliang thought about it, it was true, so he stopped thinking about it.Unexpectedly, Zhang Dazhuang hugged him as soon as he got on the kang after taking off his shoes, and pressed him on top of him and said, "If this was someone else's family, when you were so old, the family would still be thinking about marrying a wife. When you arrive at my house, you start to worry about how to marry your child a daughter-in-law."

Ye Chengliang was speechless, "Can you take a day off?! Spring is over, why are you still so energetic!"

Zhang Dazhuang ignored him, and continued to plant crops in his own field, thinking that anyway, Rong Xiaoqiao left, and the eldest son slept in grandma's house, so why don't he hurry up and take the opportunity to eat and drink?

So the next day, when Ye Chengliang, who had been overwatered, went to Bai Yousheng's house, his legs were a little weak, and he couldn't hang himself in the mud soup, because it was raining that day, and the roads in the village were not easy to walk.

Bai Yousheng and his two children were sitting in the house picking vegetables—mainly Bai Yousheng and Niu Niu picking vegetables. Shi Ling hugged their son and coaxed them. When Ye Chengliang came in, Bai Yousheng was stunned, "Ah Liang, why did you come here on a rainy day?" gone?"

Ye Chengliang put away the umbrella before saying, "On rainy days, I have some free time. Besides, you are also busy on weekdays. How can you have time to talk properly?"

Niuniu put down the vegetables and wiped her hands on her apron, "I'll go get Uncle A Liang something to eat!"

Ye Chengliang would have stopped him in the past, but not this time.Seeing that Niuniu had gone out, he hurriedly said, "Brother Bai, sister-in-law Shi Ling, I just want to ask, does Niuniu have a husband?"

Bai Yousheng and Shi Ling didn't expect that Ye Chengliang came here for this reason, and after a while, Bai Yousheng said: "Not yet. Many people came to ask, but she is still young, and your sister-in-law and I haven't made a decision yet. It’s better for the two of you to know the basics and the basics, so we’re thinking about it in two years.”

Shi Ling asked: "Ah Liang, why are you asking this?"

Ye Chengliang said: "Isn't there a half-child in my family, that's why I came here to inquire, who made me care about this girl, Niu Niu, she suits my eyes."

Shi Ling and Bai Yousheng looked at each other, and then burst into laughter, "Is that the child named He Zhi? I looked at it earlier. It seems that I don't like to smile very much, but when I smile, it seems to light up the surroundings."

Ye Chengliang nodded, "Well, it's him. In fact, the children are still young, so it's too early to talk about these things. But I'm afraid that this shop will disappear after passing through this village. Who made Niuniu a good and sensible girl? So after discussing with Da Zhuang, I decided to ask you guys first with a thick skin, so I know what to do with it.”

Bai Yousheng said: "It will take a long time to see each other in the future, why are you so anxious?"

Ye Chengliang understood as soon as he heard it. Bai Yousheng and Shi Ling had nothing to say about their impressions of him and Zhang Dazhuang, but their eldest son had only come to the village after all, so they had to learn more about it.As parents, this is too easy to understand, and it is also very reasonable.

At this time, Niu Niu came into the house with a bowl of washed strawberries, and put it directly in front of Ye Chengliang, "Uncle A Liang, you eat, these strawberries are so sweet."

Ye Chengliang got up and said: "My good boy, you can keep it and eat, the raspberries at Uncle's house can also be picked, you can go there when you have time."

Seeing that Ye Chengliang was about to go back, Bai Yousheng hurriedly said, "Ah Liang, sit down for a while, what are you doing in such a hurry to go back?"

Ye Chengliang waved his hand, indicating that the children are back, so let's not say more.However, Bai Yousheng also got up with him, and when he sent the person outside the house, he said in a low voice, "He knows that child, I have seen it, it's not bad. But your sister-in-law and her natal family have relatives and asked the coal lady to come over to mention it not long ago." , so this matter cannot be settled at the moment, or your sister-in-law will not be able to do it."

Ye Chengliang nodded, "Then I understand, Brother Bai, go back to your room."

It seemed that Shi Ling and Bai Yousheng didn't like that family very much anymore. Ye Chengliang had a clue in his mind, and his steps became lighter when he went back, but today he only talked to Zhang Dazhuang about this matter, and then didn't mention it again.And Zhang Hezhi didn't ask again.

Two days later, the news that Mi Suqing was going to teach the children to read and write spread in Hongsha Village.At the beginning, everyone didn't know this person very well, and they were a bit xenophobic, so they all waited and saw. Only a few families who were very friendly with Ye Chengliang sent their children here, and among them was Zhuang Ping, who had been beaten by Zhang Guangshan's grandson before. And Sun Ermeng's daughter-in-law's natal sister's child.

Niu Niu wanted to come, but her mother stopped her, saying that it is proper for a girl to embroider and do housework at home. What words should she learn?You can't take a test of merit.Niuniu was very depressed, but she didn't dare to disobey her mother, so she could only help her mother look after the baby at home, or go pick a vegetable to cook a meal or something.

Now that the weather is warm, Mi Suqing is taking the children to study under the old tree where Mr. Zhuang Xiucai gave lectures. Zhang Xingzhi, Zhang Qianzhi, and Zhang Lizhi each sit in a small horse, and Zhuang Ping and Sun Ermeng’s nephew Li Youde also sit Put on the pony.This thing is self-prepared, the parents of the family said, this Master Ye does not accept them to study, so there is no serious school at the moment, but as long as they are willing to learn knowledge, Master Ye can teach them a lot of things.

Mi Suqing is funny, and he speaks well in class. The children quickly fell in love with him. Gradually, more children came to attend classes with their own small mats or stools, and those villagers who went to work in the fields also When passing by this outdoor school, he showed a grateful smile to the master surnamed Ye, and some people even brought some food to Situ Chenfei's house from time to time, because everyone now knows that Master Ye lives in Doctor Situ's house .

Doctor Situ hadn't come back for a long time after he went out. Some people even wondered if the house here had already been sold to Zhang Dazhuang, but both Zhang Dazhuang and Ye Chengliang said that was not the case, and that Doctor Situ would still come back in the future.

In fact, the people in the village also miss Situ Chenfei a little bit. Who made this man have a bad mouth on weekdays, but he has good medical ethics.Fortunately, Dr. Situ left, but there is Dr. Yunqing who can see everyone.Although Dr. Yunqing "can't" speak, his medical treatment is no worse than that of Dr. Situ. Those poor people don't even charge for medicine when they come to see a doctor, which is much more generous than Dr. Situ's iron rooster!

On this day, Ye Chengliang and Zhang Dazhuang felt that it was time, and after deciding which homestead they wanted to buy, they went to Zhang Guangshan together. They wanted to continue to expand the yard to the east, so they needed to buy another acre of land just work.But the couple knew in their hearts that Zhang Guangshan, a dead old man, would definitely not sell the land to them so easily, even if the land currently belonged to the public.

Zhang Dazhuang and Ye Chengliang guessed right, because as soon as they entered the house, Zhang Guangshan pulled his face down.As Lizheng, Zhang Guangshan already knew that Master Ye in the village was brought back by Ye Chengliang and Zhang Dazhuang, and that he didn't charge the children to study and study. Didn't he deliberately oppose him? !Now all the rest of the school are Zhang's children!

In terms of seniority, Zhang Dazhuang and Ye Chengliang should call Zhang Guangshan the third master, but Zhang Dazhuang and Ye Chengliang didn't think so.In fact, if it weren't for the old man's consent to buy the land, they would have disdain to even look at him, but this is the situation now, the land must be bought.

After Zhang Guangshan heard Zhang Dazhuang's words, he said: "This land is second, but Dazhuang, the master you brought back has no fame, not even a child. How can you let him live in the village?" Teaching the children knowledge? If the teaching is wrong, the responsibility is not on your shoulders?"

Ye Chengliang said: "Lizheng, you really worry too much. Although Master Ye has no fame, he is also well-informed. He just taught the children to recognize a word. How could he teach it wrong?"

Zhang Guangshan snorted coldly, "well-informed? I don't think so. Besides, under the old tree is a place where people in the village come and go, and it's not his own home. He's there teaching children how to read and occupying the road. thing?"

Ye Chengliang nodded, "Then I will ask Mrs. Ye not to teach the children there any more."

Zhang Guangshan hooked the corners of his lips in satisfaction, "It's so good. But you have to wait for a while for that land. Someone has come and left an order earlier. Maybe they want to buy that piece of land. If they buy it, you can just buy it." I can choose another one."

Zhang Dazhuang had never heard of anyone wanting to buy that piece of land, but after Zhang Guangshan finished talking, he actually took out a contract, and even the contract money was on it!But what surprised Zhang Dazhuang and Ye Chengliang the most was not the pitiful amount of money, but that the buyer's name on the contract was actually Zhang Dali!

You bastard, how dare you play with them!

Ye Chengliang and Zhang Dazhuang returned without success, but they did not intend to give up the land.But since Zhang Dali dared to play tricks with them behind their backs, they naturally had to accept the trick. So that afternoon, all the children who had been listening to Master Ye under the old tree went back and told their parents the bad news: Zhang Li was not letting Master Ye taught them how to read!
