rushing a fool to farm

Leaving Zhao Yueshi's house, Zheng San looked up at the sky, calculated, nearly an hour had passed before leaving the house.It seems that the matter of registration is not so easy, mainly because his neighbors are generally weird.

Then he and Brother Chu will go to Mr. Qi's house.He had never seen Mr. Qi and almost never heard of it. He only heard from others that he was a person who didn't go out. He didn't know anything about Mr. Qi.Zheng San thought about it carefully, he has lived here for more than half a year, but he has never seen Mr. Qi once.What is this man like?It is really curious.

Zheng San and Chu Qing were walking on the road, and Li Asi came back from the field carrying a hoe and a basket filled with golden ears of wheat.Zheng San greeted him cordially: "Brother Li, haven't you finished your field work yet?"

Li Ah Si grinned, showing two rows of white teeth: "I went to pick up ears of wheat. I saw that there were still ears of wheat left in the field, so I picked some and came back to grind the flour."

Zheng San took out the bamboo slips and carving knife from his arms, and said, "Brother Li, the higher authorities stipulated that the area of ​​cultivated land should be re-registered. I have to ask how many mu of land your family has."

Li Ah Si leaned over to look at the bamboo slips, and said, "It's really strange to re-register. I used to plant them casually. I have fifteen acres of land."

Zheng San nodded, engraved the words on the bamboo slips, and said in his heart: Li A's four families have fifteen acres of land, plus the land leased to him by Master Zhao Yue, there are more than twenty acres of land in total.It turned out that Li Ahsi was actually the biggest landlord besides him.

Zheng San's land, including the homestead and vegetable garden, has a total of about [-] mu, which is the most land nearby.

After Li Ahsi answered Zheng San's question, he left with a hoe on his shoulder. Zheng San thought about farming while walking.etc!It seems that Li Asi's family does not grow wheat, so where did his ears of wheat come from?

Zheng San turned around, and Li Ah Si had already left only a small black spot.Zheng San shook his head, forget it, so as not to affect his mood.

"Is anyone there? Is anyone there?" Zheng San knocked on the door several times, but the door of Mr. Qi's house was closed, and there was no sound at all.Zheng San kept knocking tirelessly for a while, and finally got tired.He said: "Is Mr. Qi not at home? It stands to reason that he should be. Wang Matchmaker said that he doesn't like to go out and is at home all day long."

Brother Chu asked, "Do you want to go in and have a look?"

With the experience just now, Zheng San consciously stood beside Brother Chu, and Brother Chu led him into the yard as soon as he mentioned it.

"belch!"

The courtyard is very old, this is Zheng San's first impression.However, as soon as Zheng San landed, there was an extra person lying on the ground.This person was dressed in white-washed brown linen clothes, his eyes were turned white, and he was foaming at the mouth.He is not very old, about the same as Zheng San, maybe a little older.

Zheng San panicked when he saw it, and immediately bent down to check his breath, and said anxiously: "Oh, what should I do?"

Brother Chu squatted down, checked for a while, and said, "Maybe it's epilepsy."

Zheng San said: "Then hurry up and send him for treatment."

Brother Chu was about to lift the person on the ground, but the person on the ground suddenly sat up, patted his chest, and said in shock: "So you are not robbers, you really scared me to death just now."

Zheng San has black lines all over his head.I go!So you passed out just now, were you frightened?

Zheng San felt that business was more important. Since Mr. Qi was already awake, it would be better for him to go home and cook after registering quickly.He took out bamboo slips and a carving knife from his pocket, and said, "Mr. Qi..."

"belch!"

Mr. Qi lay down straight again.

"Is he sick or not? Was he scared?" Zheng San found a basin of water from the house, patted his face with water, and said, "Mr. Qi, wake up. We are here Those who register for farming!"

Mr. Qi woke up leisurely, saw Zheng San and Brother Chu, patted his chest again, and said, "Don't be so scary when you do things, be gentle. You came in through the wall, I thought the house was a thief. Mr. Qi looked at the carving knife in Zheng San's hand, quickly covered his face with his sleeve, and said, "Knife...take the knife away...what if you accidentally hurt it..."

Zheng San put the knife away, and said: "It's just a carving knife. If you are careful, it won't hurt anyone. We... we came in through the wall because we knocked on the door for a long time and there was no sound, and we didn't want to make a trip in vain, so I came in to see what happened, I’m really sorry.”

Mr. Qi finally put down his sleeves and looked squarely at Zheng San and Chu Qing.He said: "What did you just say? Re-registration of cultivated land? Why have I never encountered such a thing, you are not lying to me, are you?"

In order to understand Mr. Qi's suspicion, Zheng San took the initiative to hand him the bamboo slips, saying: "No lie, Mr. Qi may not know me. I am a new neighbor this year. My surname is Zheng. I live near here. I will move this year. There was a treat at the time, but Mr. Qi didn't come. They are all neighbors, how can they lie?"

Mr. Qi finally felt relieved, and said: "I don't know what to register?" He stood up, walked into the room step by step, and said: "Come in quickly, let's talk in the room."

Zheng San and Chu Qing entered the house, and Xiao Ran was surrounded by the house, which was so simple that there were only things necessary for life.Zheng San had expected this for a long time. If Mr. Qi didn't go out, he couldn't farm the land. If he didn't farm the land, he would have no source of income. How could the situation be better?

When Zheng San and Chu Qing entered the house, Mr. Qi stood next to the door, put his head out to look at the sky, and said, "It's better to stay in the house, it's safer. It's better to change faces when it's summer, and it's windy every now and then." After a while there was thunder and lightning, and the sound was extremely loud, as if it was about to collapse. If the sky collapsed and I happened to be walking on the road, it would be over. Fortunately, I don’t go out much.... You should also pay more attention, there is no guarantee Then there will be a disaster.”

Mr. Qi rambled on a lot, but Zheng San was speechless.He said: "Mr. Qi, you don't know that sometimes the house will collapse. I have heard that there is a natural disaster called an earthquake. When the ground shakes, the house collapses. Sometimes it rains too fast , if the house is not built solidly, it will collapse.”

"belch!"

Mr. Qi lay on the ground again.

This time Zheng San was much calmer, stepped forward to pinch others, after pinching for a while, Mr. Qi woke up.He walked back and forth anxiously in the house, scratching his hair and muttering: "What should I do? This house was repaired when my grandfather was here. It has been decades, will it collapse..."

Zheng San didn't want to entangle with him anymore, now it's time for him to cook.He asked: "Mr. Qi, how many acres of land does your family have?"

Mr. Qi replied uneasy: "I have... have... about twelve mu of land, all of which are given to Li Ah. Every year he gives me rent money and food."

"It's Li Ah Si again?!" Zheng San greatly underestimated Li Ah Si's combat effectiveness. It turns out that he can do so many tasks with such a small body.No wonder you never come home.

Zheng San reflected on his laziness for a while, and engraved Mr. Qi's situation on it with a carving knife. He said: "Brother Qi, then I'll go first, I should go back and cook."

Zheng San turned to leave, but Mr. Qi suddenly rushed over and hugged Zheng San's leg, he asked: "Zheng... Brother Zheng, is your house newly built?"

Zheng San nodded, suddenly having a bad premonition.

"The newly built house will definitely not collapse. I... can I live in your house first? I'll chop firewood and cook for you!"

Zheng San said helplessly, "There are already five helpers in my family, so I don't need them."

Mr. Qi tremblingly said: "No...it doesn't matter...one more will not go anywhere. I...I don't want wages, I will borrow your house to hide..."

Brother Chu’s hungry stomach gurgled in Zheng San’s ear. He felt distressed for a while, and suddenly he had an idea, and said, “Brother Qi, I’m afraid I can’t live there because there are too many people in my family. Li Asi’s family is small, you can go There he is."

Mr. Qi finally let go of Zheng San's thigh, and said happily, "That's right, at worst, I'll ask him for less rent." After finishing speaking, he went back to his room to tidy up his things.

Zheng San put the carving knife and bamboo slips into his arms, and walked back with Brother Chu.

He finally finished the work of registering the cultivated land.
