rushing a fool to farm

Chapter 24 The Heart of the Chu People

Zheng San locked himself in his room all afternoon, his mind was in a mess.It wasn't until it was dark that I was hungry, so I made up my mind to go out of the room and go to the kitchen to get something to eat.Brother Chu hugged Xiao Huang and sat outside with grievances. When he saw him come out, he said weakly, "Brother Zheng, I'm hungry..."

Zheng San sighed helplessly: "I'm going to make something to eat right now."

After finishing the meal, Zheng San numbly stuffed the meal into his mouth while thinking about his daughter-in-law.Why?Why does that woman, Matchmaker Wang, always pick on him and insist on saying that he and Chu Qing are a couple?Why did Chu Qing suddenly think that the two of them should be together?Was it really influenced by Matchmaker Wang?

Zheng San looked up at the person sitting opposite, who was concentrating on eating, to be precise, he had already eaten seven bowls in a row and was eating the eighth bowl.Looking at Brother Chu's face with no intentions, Zheng San couldn't bear to guess that the source of all this was Brother Chu.

Probably...probably because Matchmaker Wang is getting old and she has lost her mind.

However, he was made such a fuss by the matchmaker Wang, and all the villages knew about it. His reputation was ruined, and would he still be able to marry a wife in the future?Zheng San burst into tears.

After finally taking root in the Chu country, life is getting better, and such a trouble occurs again, God can't live with him.But no matter how difficult it is, life is still going on, right?Zheng San decided to sow the seeds first, and talk about the future later.

Zheng San said calmly: "Chu Qing, let's go planting seeds tomorrow, and don't talk about other things."

Brother Chu set the table and chopsticks when he was full, and replied, "Okay, I will follow Brother Zheng's orders."

The next day, Zheng San took the seeds and Chu Qing carried the farm tools and slowly sowed the seeds in the field.Zheng San had something on his mind, so he moved very slowly, spitting out once in a while.Some pedestrians came from a distance, and they lived nearby. They stood in the distance, as if they were looking at Zheng San and Chu Qing, chatting occasionally.

Zheng San was a little strange, looked up, but those people left again.

People like this came several times, and Zheng San finally understood that they were indeed looking at him and Brother Chu.It is estimated that the matter between him and Chu Qing was spread far by Wang Matchmaker, and everyone came to join in the fun.

Zheng San suddenly didn't want to live anymore. He sat down on the ridge of the field with a sad expression.

"Brother Zheng, what's the matter with you?" Brother Chu asked with concern.

Zheng San waved his hands weakly, and said, "It's nothing, I'm just in a bad mood."

Little Brother Chu let out an oh, then lowered his head to work again.

"Look, look, he sits and rests by himself, and leaves everything to his son-in-law. It's too shameless..."

"Yes, yes, but... I feel that I was tired last night and my back hurts, so I sat down?"

"Puff, maybe..."

Passers-by's comments came faintly to his ears, and Zheng San got excited, stood up quickly, and continued to work.

"I just said he's fine, he's obviously just pretending to be tired."

"That's right, his wife didn't say anything, she's been working all the time, she's really honest."

Zheng San was so overwhelmed that he almost lost his breath.He walked up to Longshang, and said angrily: "Is it over? Get the hell out of me, Ge Laozi!"

Passers-by dispersed one after another, and it began to rain lightly.Zheng San looked up at the sky, almost tearing up.

"Brother Zheng, the rain is getting heavier and heavier, do you want to go back to shelter from the rain?"

Zheng San came to his senses, the rain was indeed getting heavier, standing here, he must be drowned.It's raining like this and I can't work, so let's go back.Zheng San signaled Brother Chu to bring his things, and the two slowly returned home one after the other.

Zheng San sat in front of the window, watching the rain outside getting heavier and heavier, his mood fell to the bottom.It seems that the daughter-in-law's matter has really come to naught, what should he do in the future?Is it true that I will plant a lifetime here with Brother Chu?

No, he can't just accept his fate like this.

Zheng San opened the door and went out, saying seriously: "Chu Qing, come here, I have something to discuss with you."

Chu Qing put down Xiao Huang in her hand, walked up to Zheng San, and asked, "Brother Zheng, do you need me?"

Zheng San put the wallet in Brother Chu's hand, and said, "This is your wages from the past few days. I gave it an extra month. You can save it to buy some delicious food."

"Didn't you say it was all deducted? I broke your roof..."

"It's okay, you fixed the roof too, didn't you?"

Brother Chu put the money into his arms, feeling uneasy.

Zheng San continued: "When the rain stops, you can go home."

"Go home?" Brother Chu was startled, "Where are you going back? I don't want to go back, the land hasn't been planted yet, and there is so much land in the house, Brother Zheng, you can't do it alone! What will you do if I leave?" ?”

Zheng San waved his hand and said, "It doesn't matter, I'll plant it slowly. You haven't been home for a long time, and your parents probably miss you very much. You are the eldest son, so you should go back to fulfill your filial piety. I... will not keep you here... ..."

Chu Qing choked up again, and he said: "Brother Zheng, you told me that you could keep me forever and plant the land with me for the rest of your life, was it a lie?..."

Zheng San's heart twitched.Why does Brother Chu speak like he sang in the play?After hearing this, Zheng San felt that he was a big bastard.But brother Chu must leave, otherwise he will have no hope for the rest of his life.

Brother Chu put down the money and said, "I don't want money, as long as you give me food and a place to sleep."

Zheng Sanyu earnestly said: "Chu Qing, if you want to farm so much, you can ask your family to pay some money to buy you a piece of land near your home, and you can plant it yourself. Why do you have to follow me?"

Chu Qing sniffed and said, "Then I'll buy one next to you and plant it with you."

Zheng San was in a daze, so he shoved the money into Chu Qing's arms cruelly, and went to his room to pack up a few clothes. By then, the rain had stopped.He opened the door and said, "Chu Qing, the rain has stopped, let's go!"

Brother Chu stared at him blankly, Zheng San couldn't bear to look any further, and closed the door.

Zheng San walked back with his hands behind his back and bumped into a pillar.He touched his nose, wondering, where did the pillars come from in the yard?He looked up, and Brother Chu was looking at him with tears in his eyes.

"Chu Qing, why are you back?"

"Brother Zheng, I'm so hungry, can you make me soup cakes?"

Zheng San sighed helplessly, and said, "Okay, I'll make it for you, and you can go on your way after eating."

Brother Chu finished the whole pot of soup cakes, and reluctantly drank up the soup.He finished eating, without saying anything else, and walked out the door with his head down.It started to rain patter outside, Zheng San brought him a coir raincoat to put on, and he left.Xiao Huang wandered back and forth in the yard, calling at Zheng San's feet.Zheng San suddenly felt a little sad and reluctant.He carried Xiao Huang into the house and stroked its head.He was alone again, but at least he had a dog to keep him company.

Brother Chu walked outside with sobs, it was raining, he forgot which way to go to get home, so he just wandered around.He couldn't figure it out, how could Zheng San not want him?He thought he could plant land with Zheng San for a lifetime, wouldn't Zheng San like it?

There was hazy smoke in the distance, and he poked his back with both hands, Brother Chu turned his head, and it was not Zheng San, but Matchmaker Wang that he saw.

"What's the matter, little brother Chu has been wronged?" Seeing the baggage in Chu Qing's hand, Matchmaker Wang asked in surprise, "Zheng San wants to drive you away?"

Brother Chu nodded.

Matchmaker Wang was in a hurry, put her hands on her hips, and said angrily: "This Zheng San, it's really terrible. Quick, come with me to my house, and I will find a way to deal with him for you tomorrow!"
