Dressed as the uncle of farming culture

"Brother, Third Uncle Xiao," Mrs. Xue stepped forward to say hello. She glanced at Xue Silang who was staring at Xiao Le, coughed, and Xue Silang turned his head.

Xiao Le understood immediately.

After entering the main room, Xiao Le whispered, "Have you stopped drinking?"

"No," Mrs. Xue said in a lower voice, "a bowl of wine is divided into two feeds, morning and evening."

Only a little sober at noon.

Mo Cheng's tall figure blocked Xiao Le, even if Xue Silang tried hard to see what they were doing, he could only see Mo Cheng's back.

"It's too risky."

Xiao Le somewhat disapproved.

"Only if he completely trusts me and obeys me, I will be more at ease."

Fourth Lady Xue raised a smile, "I wonder if Third Uncle Xiao is here?"

"It's like this," Xiao Le took out a bamboo fan stand from Mo Cheng's back basket, "Can you make this stand?"

After Mrs. Xue took it, she looked carefully, "Yes, but I may have to slow down at the beginning."

"It doesn't matter," Xiao Le nodded, "I'll just use what you find for the bamboo. After making a hundred of them, I'll collect them. Each shelf costs a penny."

One hundred is one hundred wen.

It took Xiao Le 5 minutes to make this shelf, while Sister Xiao and Sister-in-law Xiao are both beginners, and the first one took 15 minutes.

Fourth Lady Xue was taken aback, and looked at Mo Cheng, who raised his hand to stroke Xiao Le's hair, "Listen to him."

Seeing that Mo Cheng was so close to Xiao Le, Mrs. Xue was startled.

But when she met Mo Cheng's eyes, she couldn't say anything.

She squeezed the bamboo stand tightly in her hand and watched them leave.

Came to the yard in a daze, Xue Silang looked at her sideways, and made a questioning sound.

"It's nothing." Mrs. Xue twitched the corners of her mouth, "Uncle Xiao takes the bamboo frames, one penny each."

Of course, Xiao Le didn't just look for Mrs. Xue Si, he also looked for Aunt Liu, Aunt Wang, and a few honest and diligent little ladies.

Mo Cheng accompanied him there.

As for the fan noodles, they were given to Sister Xiao, Sister-in-law Xiao and Mother Xiao.

Brother Xiao, who came back from work, ate the fish that had been raised for a few days, and the meat that was almost bacon.

"Take this money to rent a shop."

Xiao Le gave him 50 taels of silver.

The second brother Xiao added 50 taels himself, and he borrowed 50 taels from shopkeeper Zhao.

Now there is money for renting the shop and money for repairing the shop.

"I have prepared three types of goods, round fans, purses, and hair accessories. After you have prepared them, you will hang them up for sale. The results are good in the first ten days, and we can produce most of them."

"Production?"

Brother Xiao was startled.

This thing was born?

"It's just that there are many ways to do it," Xiao Le rolled his eyes. "The family is rich and disgusting. Now that the village chief is getting old, it's time to change the village chief. I think the Xue family will definitely be able to do it."

Brother Xiao nodded, "Indeed, they have been preparing for a long time."

"We bring everyone together to make money. Even if the village head is changed, our Xiao family will not be affected too much."

Don't look down on a village head, once a member of a family becomes the village head, that family will be better than families with other surnames during the village head's tenure.

For all benefits, think about your own people first.

If we want to get rich and get rich together, the contradictions will naturally be less.

In the blink of an eye, the autumn harvest is coming, and the shop is about [-]% to [-]% ready, and it will open in half a month.

Second brother Xiao was not at home, and second sister-in-law Xiao and the others were busy making accessories, so Cheng Mo came over to help harvest the crops.

He has great strength and works hard, and Xiao's father and Xiao's mother like it very much.

In terms of food, he didn't treat people badly, and Mo Cheng was full every meal.

This is what Xiao Le will see. At the beginning, Mo Cheng was also polite, and stopped eating after two bowls.

Xiao Le didn't wait for him to put down the bowl and chopsticks, directly grabbed his bowl, added another big bowl, and handed over four corn cakes, with a sweet smile attached.

Mo Cheng, who was dazed by his smile, took the big bowl of rice and tortillas, and after eating them all, he also drank three bowls of soup that Xiao Le handed over.

This made Xiao's mother, who was cooking, immediately counted. The second meal, whether it was dishes or rice, increased in quantity.

When Mo Cheng and Xiao Le were taking a walk at night, Mo Cheng looked sideways at the happy Xiao Le, "In the eyes of my aunt and the others, do I become a fool?"

"Nonsense," Xiao Le shook his head solemnly, "You're not an idiot."

"is it?"

But within a few days, Mo Cheng happened to meet some aunts talking to Xiao's mother, and Xiao's mother happened to talk about Mo Cheng, "Oh, this Mo Dalang is really good at his job! How can he be so good?" As for strength, one meal of his is enough for me to last a day!"

"Isn't that a rice bucket?"

Aunt laughed.

"Your rice bucket has such good strength?"

Xiao's mother rolled her eyes and said something.

Mo Cheng: ...

After Xiao Le learned about it, he sent over the wooden hairpin made for Mo Cheng, hugged Mo Cheng's head, and kissed him several times.

Mo Cheng had finished weeding the barren hills, and he brought back a lot of pear saplings, and the barren hills were full of pear trees.

Only Xiao Le knew that there was a weapon under the pear tree.

One day, Xiao Lezheng and Mo Cheng were watering the pear saplings, and Second Brother Xiao happened to pass by at the foot of the mountain. When he looked up, he saw the two of them holding hands and sitting under the pear saplings, not knowing what to say.

Second Brother Xiao was taken aback, but also afraid that he might misunderstand, so he hid aside and watched until Mo Cheng lowered his head and kissed Xiao Le, Second Brother Xiao clenched his fists.

"What's going on with you and Mo Cheng?"

In the evening, Second Brother Xiao, who had been holding back for a day without rushing into Mo's house to beat anyone, brought a jug of wine and dragged Xiao Le to the hillside to talk.

"Second brother, do you have to say it here?"

Xiao Le didn't even bother drinking, and went to slap mosquitoes with his hands.

"Can you tell the truth at home?"

Brother Xiao slapped the mosquitoes away expressionlessly, "Say it quickly, my patience is running out."

"What do you think our relationship is?"

Xiao Le asked back.

"If I'm sure, I'll ask you?"

"If you ask me, it's already confirmed," Xiao Le looked at him sideways, "Brother Mo Cheng and I have the relationship you want. I like him, and I, Xiao Le, like men. I will never get married in this life. .”

Second Brother Xiao dropped the jug.

"Do you know what you're talking about?!"

The flagon fragments bounced up and wiped Xiao Le's cheek, bleeding a little.

There was wine on that shard, so the wound hurt a bit.

Xiao Le stood up, "I know."

"Then do you know the consequences? Parents will be mad at you!"

Brother Xiao said angrily.

"They don't know," Xiao Le pursed his lips, "at least they don't know now."

"You want to keep it a secret from them?"

"if not?"

Xiao Le looked up at him, "Do I have any other options?"

"Third brother, think about it again..."

Second brother Xiao stepped forward, wanting to persuade him more, but Xiao Le stepped back, "Second brother, my lover, just happens to be the same as me, he and I have no choice."

After speaking, Xiao Le left.

He didn't go home, but went directly to Mo Chengna.

When Mo Cheng opened the courtyard door, he smelled a bit of blood.

He pulled him into the room, and under the light, he reached out and touched the wound on Xiao Le's face, "Who?"

"Accident."

Xiao Le sighed, "Second Brother knows about our affairs, he is very angry, please help me deal with the injury, I will go back later."

Mo Cheng didn't speak, he treated Xiao Le's wound, and as soon as he left the hospital while holding his hand, he was facing Brother Xiao's fist.

"Mo Cheng! Let you seduce my younger brother!"

Mo Cheng didn't fight back.

Xiao Le didn't stop him either.

But Xiao Le brought the bruised and swollen Mo Cheng to Xiao's father and Xiao's mother to complain, "Second brother is crazy, look at him beating him!"

"Ouch! Why do you beat people like this!"

Xiao's mother was startled, and hurried to get the wound medicine.

Father Xiao was so angry that he picked up the broom, and when Second Brother Xiao chased him into the courtyard, he beat him up, "I'll make you beat someone! I'll let you beat someone!"

Sister Xiao and Second Sister Xiao stood at the door of the main room at a loss.

He wanted Father Xiao to stop, and saw Mo Cheng's serious face again.

Can only swallow the words.

"Father, stop!"

Brother Xiao was hit several times, and it really hurt.

And Xiao Le called for clean water, and used the wound medicine brought by Xiao's mother to treat Mo Cheng's wound.

"Your brother did it on your face too?"

Only then did Xiao's mother discover the wound on Xiao Le's face.

"He didn't mean to."

Xiao Le said tea-like tea.

Second brother Xiao was so angry.

He kept running around the yard until Xiao's father was exhausted and stopped, and Brother Xiao was able to breathe.

"Brother Tian! Why are you beating someone!"

Second Sister-in-law Xiao stepped forward to support him, sighing.

"Yeah, is there anything you can't talk about? Look at him and beat him up!"

Xiao's mother was very angry, stepped forward and pinched him, and the second brother Xiao groaned in pain.

"And the wound on the third child's face, how did you get it?!"

"me……"

Brother Xiao looked at Xiao Le, who was bowing his head to treat Mo Cheng's wound, and became angry again, "You still treat him! Let him go!"

"Who's going? Who's going!"

When Xiao's father heard it, he became very angry, picked up the broom and wanted to beat someone again, but was stopped by Sister Xiao, "Father, father, let's listen to the second brother's explanation first."

"You explain it!"

After finishing speaking, Sister Xiao quickly looked at Second Brother Xiao.

Second Brother Xiao opened his mouth and looked at Xiao Le who looked up. He had no expression on his face, and even less emotion in his eyes.

But his hand was on Mo Cheng's shoulder.

It is a silent threat.

Second brother Xiao looked at him for a while, then wiped his face, "I just want to beat him, because he doesn't like it."

"What's the reason!"

Xiao's father pointed at him, "Do you think you are a bully? You can beat someone if you want to?!"

"Uncle," Mo Cheng stood up, facing his bruised face, "It's my fault, Second Brother beat me right."

"Bah! Where did you get the face to call me second brother?"

Brother Xiao laughed angrily at Mo Cheng's cheekiness.

"speak politely!"

Xiao's mother kicked him, and Xiao's second sister-in-law also secretly pinched him.

The very aggrieved Second Brother Xiao had a sullen face.

"Father, mother, I'm staying at Brother Mo Cheng's house tonight, his injury needs someone to take care of him."

Xiao Le pulled Mo Cheng and left.

The Xiao family looked at each other, and the second brother Xiao stood at the gate of the courtyard and yelled at Xiao Le to come back.

Not only did Xiao Le not listen to him, he even made a face at him.

Brother Xiao became even more angry.

"what happened?"

Mother Xiao frowned.

Brother Xiao didn't dare to tell the truth, he was forced to ask for a long time, and gave a reason that was not a reason, "I lost ten coins, and he happened to walk behind me, and when I turned around, the money was gone."

"Beating someone for ten cents?"

Miss Xiao stared.

"Ten cents is a lot."

Brother Xiao gritted his teeth.

"That's too hard a beating," Mrs. Xiao frowned. "Besides, before Mo Dalang bought so much wine and meat, it cost more than ten coins. I don't think he picked up the ten coins."

"That's not necessarily true," Second Brother Xiao angrily went to fetch water for a bath, even the cold water couldn't quench his anger.

And after Xiao Le and Mo Cheng returned home, Xiao Le was assigned to another room.

He didn't make a fuss, just hugged Mo Cheng's waist and said, "Am I going too far?"

Mo Cheng hugged him tightly, "We are not wrong, but I can also understand him, my little sister also came to me a few times before, cried and made trouble..."

"and then?"

"Then I still didn't change it. She was angry and annoyed. After a few days of boredom, she found me again and said she didn't care about me."

Mo Cheng held Xiao Le's face in his hands, and said softly, "We still have a long, long time."

"Of course I know," Xiao Le rubbed his face into his hand, "You rely on me in this life, and you don't even want to escape in the next life."

The autumn night was a bit chilly, Second Brother Xiao kept his head silent, and Second Sister Xiao put the oil lamp beside the closet, lay beside him and hugged him from behind.

"Brother Tian, ​​you didn't hit Mo Dalang for the ten cents, did you?"

"Not too."

Brother Xiao only hated himself for not being ruthless enough.

"Is it because of uncle?"

The second brother Xiao was startled, he sat up immediately, held the shoulder of the second sister-in-law Xiao and asked, "Do you know something?"

Second Aunt Xiao looked at him for a while, then nodded.

"When did you know? Who told you?"

Brother Xiao asked.

"Mo Dalang knew about it when we were harvesting for us," Second Aunt Xiao hugged his waist. "Their eyes can't deceive anyone. I was also shocked at the time. After my uncle found out, he told me himself."

To be honest, Second Aunt Xiao was mostly shocked at the time, but she didn't think they were wrong.

"Brother Tian, ​​my uncle is different since he was a child. He was bullied by his peers, because he likes hair accessories and dresses, and was teased by girls," Second Aunt Xiao recalled what Liu Yan said to her that day, and raised her head.

"Did you know that Liu Yan came to see me before she got married?"

"What did she do to you?"

"She asked me if my uncle was an apprentice, because a girl told her that my uncle often stares at young ladies, but we know that my uncle is looking at their dresses and hair accessories, but they don't know. "

"Then how many misunderstandings did my uncle suffer without us knowing?"

Brother Xiao frowned.

Without Xiao Le's knowledge, Mrs. Xiao had already used her own brain to explain to him why she fell in love with this man.

So the next morning, when Xiao Le woke up together, he saw Second Brother Xiao who was talking to Mo Cheng with a slightly stinky face.

Seeing him coming out of another room, Second Brother Xiao's complexion improved a lot, "Aren't you going back? Living in someone else's house, how can you be comfortable at home."

Xiao Le was stunned when he heard that.

Seeing this, Second Brother Xiao stepped forward, took Xiao Le's arm and walked out, "Why are you in a daze, Mom and Dad are still waiting for you to go back for breakfast."

"Brother Mo Cheng, I'm going back first."

Xiao Le took the time to wave to Mo Cheng.

Mo Cheng smiled at him, because the wound on his face was still not healed, it looked a little scary.

But Xiao Le blew a kiss back.

After a while, Mo Cheng, who understood what the other party's behavior meant, was in a good mood.

Along the way, Second Brother Xiao only talked about the shop, not about Xiao Le and Mo Cheng.

Seeing that he didn't mention it, Xiao Le didn't say anything.

"I'll take the round fan and purse I made to the shop first."

There are two rooms behind the shop, one for storing sundries and the other for living.

When he got home, Xiao's father and Xiao's mother were indeed waiting for him to have dinner.

"How is Mo Dalang's injury?"

Father Xiao asked worriedly.

"It's only been one night, but the scars have formed," Xiao Le sipped the porridge, "but I probably won't be able to go out for a few days."

That is definitely not allowed to go out.

There was originally a scar on this face, but now his nose was bruised and his face was swollen. Those who didn't know would think that Mo Dalang was bearing some kind of blood debt. Wouldn't the villagers be even more xenophobic?

Thinking of this, Xiao's mother glared at Second Brother Xiao again.

"Did you give me the silver you gave me?"

Brother Xiao buried his head in eating pancakes, as if he didn't hear.

Xiao Le heard the words and looked over, "What money?"

"Money for wound medicine," Xiao's mother sighed, "If you beat someone up, don't you have to pay him?"

"No, Brother Mo Cheng said no need," Xiao Le laughed.

"That means you two have a good relationship, can your second brother succeed?"

"Of course, mother, don't worry about it."

Xiao Le brought her a pancake.

After eating, Sister Xiao packed her bags and took the bullock cart with Second Brother Xiao. She went to the town, and Second Brother Xiao went to the county seat.

The eldest brother-in-law has already rented a shop, with a small shop in the front and a courtyard that can accommodate three people at the back, and the rent is five taels a year.

Much lower than the county seat.

"Sister, come back often."

Xiao Le waved at her.

"You're free, come to town to see my sister too," Sister Xiao waved at them holding back her sourness.

Mother Xiao waited for Sister Xiao to leave, tears kept coming.

"Mother, when Eldest Sister lived at home, you always thought that Eldest Brother-in-law would come to pick her up. Now that Eldest Sister is gone, why are you still crying?"

Xiao Le smiled.

"What do you know?" Xiao's mother glared at him, "It's your own child after all, who doesn't feel bad?"

"Yes, yes, yes," Xiao Le shrugged, and leaned over to Second Aunt Xiao's side to watch her embroider the purse, "How many purses have you made now?"

"More than 200," Second Aunt Xiao raised her head and smiled, "There are twelve people in the village who embroidered, but after receiving it from me, I added the final embroidery stamp according to what you said, so that customers can know which ones are ours. The store sells authentic products."

The thread that is embroidered is a special colored thread that Mo Cheng found. Under the light, it can have two colors, so even if others do it according to their accessories, it is still fake.

Seeing that Xiao's mother didn't pay attention, Second Aunt Xiao asked in a low voice, "Is Mo Dalang alright?"

"Second brother is ruthless," Xiao Le replied in a low voice.

His injured face was facing Second Sister Xiao, and Second Sister Xiao took a glance, then took out a bottle of wound medicine from the room and gave it to him, "This is the last time I was injured, your second brother entrusted someone to bring it back, after using it, there will be no scars .”

"Thank you, sister-in-law."

Xiao Le took it with a smile.

"You and Mo Dalang pay more attention on weekdays," Second Aunt Xiao said again, "Now is not the time to let others know."

"I understand."

Xiao Le nodded.
