Taking advantage of the fact that there was no one in the courtyard, Xia Chen sneaked into Brother Nan's room. As soon as he entered, he saw Brother Dong frantically stuffing something into his arms behind his back.
"Don't hide, it's me." Xia Chen closed the door and said in a low voice.
"I was scared to death. I thought dad found out." Brother Dong let out a long sigh of relief, and took out half of the steamed cake stuffed in his bosom, which made Xia Chen grin.
Brother Nan didn't care, he didn't even bother to wipe the cake crumbs on his face, he lay on the bed and ate the steamed cake, choked hard, and yelled for water again.
"Troublemaker." Brother Dong yelled, and got up to pour water for his younger brother.
Brother Nan was gulping and drinking water, Xia Chen leaned over and asked in a low voice, "Does it still hurt?"
This unlucky boy was tricked by him, because he actively expressed that he wanted to read and write, and Brother Nan's fierce resistance concentrated all the firepower of the adults.
The violent Xia Dalang was about to explode at that time, Qiao Niang stopped her husband and gave Brother Nan a chance to talk about why he didn't want to study.
Brother Nan said that he didn't want to be beaten by his husband, and felt that studying was too hard.
Qiaoniang didn't stop her anymore, Xia Dalang roared: "Afraid that Mr. will hit you? I think you are afraid that your father will hit you?!"
Then he beat brother nan and didn't allow him to eat dinner.
Xia Chen knew that the elders said so, he was really hungry, otherwise he wouldn't make steamed cakes at night, and it was just for him or Dong Geer to pack and smuggle Nan Geer.
"It still hurts a little, but if there is some candied fruit to eat, it won't hurt at all." Brother Nan smiled to please Xia Chen, but he didn't vent his anger or hold grudges at all.
Xia Chen didn’t have candied fruit, but he had dried strawberries. There were more than 40 strawberries in total. Half of them cost ten yuan as processing fee and asked Xia Tongban to dry them for him. The other half was still stored in the warehouse. Come on.
He took out a paper bag containing dried strawberries from his purse and gave it to Brother Nan. After drying, the small fruit shrunk to a large circle, and the shape was still something that the two local children had never seen before.
"It smells so good." Brother Nan sniffed it, stuffed one into his mouth, and was immediately overwhelmed by the sweet and sour taste. He squinted his eyes and took another after eating.
"Give me one." Brother Dong was greedy, his little uncle always had good things, like that fairy water, and once gave him a handful of nuts (roasted corn kernels, lit a fire in the space, almost kicked out by Xia Tongban), the outside is charred and the inside is tender, fragrant and sweet.
He knew that these things were not given to his uncle by his grandparents. He heard his mother tell his father that the old Taoist priest in the mountains said that his uncle was a very lucky person, so his uncle must have met the old man. Fairy.
Brother Nan gave one to his elder brother heartbroken. Brother Dong ate one and went to ask for it from his younger brother. This time, Brother Nan refused to give it. You steal steamed cakes to eat."
"Then what I said today is what you said before, and I got beaten up." Brother Nan said aggrievedly.
Xia Chen suppressed a smile, the situation is different, my nephew.Your brother has been studying for half a year, and my husband thinks that going to school is a waste of time and money. He really has no talent. You want to retreat before you learn, and your father will beat you.
But he couldn't tell Brother Nan about this. He was confident that he must be the chosen one, the future champion, but there was no way to guarantee that Brother Nan would not be like his brother, unable to learn no matter what. Now that he's guaranteed to trick the child into school, won't he learn how to be responsible by then?
Anyway, the elders wouldn't let Brother Nan just because he didn't want to go, Xia Chen saw that his father had already made a fuss about it, he just wanted to go to school together when the time came, and it was enough for him to take care of his little nephew as much as possible.
The two brothers ate the dried strawberries brought by Xia Chen. Brother Nan ate a few more because he was injured. Xia Chen waited for them to finish eating and recycled the paper wrapped with dried strawberries, staring at them and rinsing their mouths before leaving.
On the second day, Xia Chen stayed in bed as usual, sitting in the yard basking in the sun and eating breakfast.
Mrs. Xia took a small package wrapped in big leaves and put it in front of Xia Chen: "The little Taoist sent it in the morning and said it was for you."
Xia Chen opened it curiously, and there were some green and red fruits and a few white and tender roots inside. Xia Chen knew that these were snacks that children in the village liked, and it was very difficult to find them.
"When did he come?" Xia Chen took a tender stem and put it in his mouth. The children in the village call this thing sweet root. When biting it, a slightly sweet juice will ooze out, but there is not much, so you can only taste it. smell.
"He came here before Chen's hour. The gate of our house was closed. He stood at the door and didn't dare to knock. He wanted to put his things at the door. Fortunately, Old Yu opened the door and watched."
"So early?" Chen Shi was seven o'clock in the morning, and it would take more than half an hour to come down from the mountain.
Mrs. Xia sighed: "I heard people say that this child has a hard life. His mother married in later, and there was an elder brother who was 20 years older. After his father died, his mother remarried. The elder brother and sister-in-law did not want to raise him." , to sell him to..."
Mrs. Xia paused at this point, then changed the subject: "That's a good boy, play with him, don't bully him."
Xia Chen frowned: "Mother, am I that kind of person?"
After thinking for a while, he said, "His clothes are so thin, can I give him the old jacket from last year? I can't fit it anymore."
In other villagers’ homes, it’s good for children to have a jacket to wear. Often, the brothers and sisters finish wearing the jackets, and when it comes to the youngest, the patches are not counted.
The children in Xia Chen's family were not much different in age, and Xia Chen was favored. Brother Nan even wore a lot of his brother's old clothes, but Xia Chen wore a lot of new clothes.He was stupid back then, sitting blankly every day, not wasting any clothes at all, and the jackets he wore were still [-] to [-]% new.
Mrs. Xia originally planned to dismantle it and rebuild it, or take it to her natal family. Her natal brother's family has many children, and there will always be a baby to take over.But Xia Chen said she would give it to Xu He, and she didn't object.
"When do you go up the mountain, I'll be with you." Xia Chen said.The small path on the mountain was almost gone because few people walked it. He had only been there once, so he didn't know the way.
Mrs. Xia said: "He will go down the mountain tomorrow, just give it to him directly, can you get the ingot?"
Xia Chen asked in surprise, "What does he get up so early every day?"
"It's for morning class." Mrs. Xia said and shook her head: "No breakfast is allowed, and I ran all the way down from the mountain and then ran back. In such a cold day, I was sweating profusely. If I didn't stop That child is about to pour cold water into his stomach, fortunately I, Yuan Bao, didn't become a Taoist priest back then."
Yes, thank goodness I didn't go.Xia Chen shrank his neck. His family knew about his family affairs, so he might really not be able to accept this practice method. No wonder the old Taoist refused to accept him.
Thinking about it this way, I feel more and more pitiful for the little Taoist priest.
After Xia Chen finished his breakfast, he was going to see Brother Nan, and when he opened the door, he found that the two brothers were not there.It's normal for Dong Ge'er to be away, this baby is restless, he must have gone out to play, Nan Ge'er slept on his stomach last night, what kind of energy does it take to take him out for a ride.
"Mom, where's Brother Nan?"
"Going down to the ground."
"What?"
"Your father said that since he wants to farm, then don't be idle and go farm. This morning he took both brothers to work in the field."
Great for my dad.
Xia Chen is really convinced, his father will definitely not make Brother Nan feel better today, and he will understand after suffering. No matter how hard it is to study, it is not as hard as farming.
In my heart, I mourned for the poor little nephew for three seconds, and by the way, I sympathized with the elder nephew who was implicated by his younger brother and was taken to farm together. Xia Chen happily went to the back of the house to toss his private land.
Skillfully dig the hole, sprinkle the seeds suitable for sowing in this season according to the explanation in the original agricultural book, and then water it.Consciousness sank into the space, and sure enough, experience increased a bit.
The higher the level, the slower the upgrade. Unfortunately, since receiving two gift packages last time, Xia Chen has only completed one achievement, rewarding five gems, and there is no chance to earn a lot of tickets. The daily income is only tens of copper coins. .
"Hey, when will we be able to enter the era of automation?" Xia Chen glanced at the long experience bar and sighed.
If you want to level up early, it's really slow to rely on repeated planting every day. It's best to have tasks and give more experience.It's a pity that I only give a little bit every day. The first task of the main task is to plant a hundred different crops, which is still far away from completion.
The rewards for random missions are generous, but unfortunately they are stuck now. The seeds selected by Xia Chen in the space are predicted in the best direction according to the yield per plant, and the yield per mu is about 350 kilograms, which cannot reach the [-] kilograms required by the mission. Kilogram.
Xia Chen thought for a while, and ran to the front yard to find Mrs. Xia: "Mother, I'll go and see Brother Nan and Brother Dong, and bring them some water."
Now is the season of rice sowing, he went to see the farmers planting, maybe there will be new discoveries.
Carrying a small basket that Qiao Niang found out for him, there was a bowl in it, and Qiao Niang carried a basket with a jug full of water in it.Mrs. Xia is worried that Xia Chen will go out alone, so Qiao Niang will go with him.
When they got to the ground, when the two little dolls saw their mother, they almost burst into tears. Xia Dalang stared with tiger eyes, and the tears were grievously held back.
Xia Chen poured a bowl of water for his father, Master Xia drank it all in one go, seeing Xia Chen watching the farmers working in the field with great interest, he said with a smile: "Yuan Bao should study hard, look, farming is really hard work , father can't bear you to suffer this."
Brother Dong and Brother Nan looked at their father quietly, Xia Dalang shouted: "What are you looking at?! If you are willing to study, I will not let you go to the ground."
Xia Chen laughed for a while, and began to ask Mr. Xia about something serious: "Father, where is our rice field? I want to see how to grow rice."
Master Xia chuckled and said, "Silly Yuanbao, this is the rice field."
Xia Chen was startled, looking at the farmers who were sowing seeds like him growing vegetables, he couldn't react.
No, although he has never planted land, he still has the common sense that he should have. Isn't it necessary to transplant rice to plant rice?What about seedlings?
"Why don't you plant seedlings?" Xia Chen murmured.
"Yang? What kind of seedling?" Master Xia said.
Xia Chen shook his head, pointed to the field and asked, "Just plant it like this? Just leave it alone?"
"Of course not. I still have to water and weed and eliminate insects. It's troublesome and hard work. If God doesn't reward me, the harvest for a year will be in vain." Master Xia wanted to describe all the hardships of farming, so that Yao'er Give up the idea of farming.
So you don't plant rice seedlings?Xia Chen suddenly became excited again, he might have a chance to complete his random task!
The author has something to say: I don't know how to farm the land, let alone cultivate fine seeds. It's all made up, don't believe it, don't research it, but it is true that rice was not transplanted in ancient times.
If I know how to do this, I won’t be bald (T▽T)
"Don't hide, it's me." Xia Chen closed the door and said in a low voice.
"I was scared to death. I thought dad found out." Brother Dong let out a long sigh of relief, and took out half of the steamed cake stuffed in his bosom, which made Xia Chen grin.
Brother Nan didn't care, he didn't even bother to wipe the cake crumbs on his face, he lay on the bed and ate the steamed cake, choked hard, and yelled for water again.
"Troublemaker." Brother Dong yelled, and got up to pour water for his younger brother.
Brother Nan was gulping and drinking water, Xia Chen leaned over and asked in a low voice, "Does it still hurt?"
This unlucky boy was tricked by him, because he actively expressed that he wanted to read and write, and Brother Nan's fierce resistance concentrated all the firepower of the adults.
The violent Xia Dalang was about to explode at that time, Qiao Niang stopped her husband and gave Brother Nan a chance to talk about why he didn't want to study.
