Zhou Daliang gave him a resentful look, didn't he know how to be more humble? He didn't follow the routine at all.
Zhoulang was gearing up, his eyes nervously and carefully moving back and forth between the two bamboo sticks, and he kept praying in his heart: Master Dao Zun, you must bless me to get the No. 1 lottery!
Zhou Lang selected it, closed his eyes, opened it again, and drew one with a swipe. When he saw the red color at the bottom of the pick, Zhou Lang was stunned for a moment, and then burst into laughter, "I won, I won!"
"
The chief glanced at him and stretched out the bamboo tube towards Zhou Daliang.
Zhou Daliang regretfully pulled out the other stick, but there was no red at the bottom.
But this is also luck, no one can blame it.
Lao Zhoutou breathed a sigh of relief, took out the dry cigarette on his waist and took a puff, then said: "Okay, Fourth Lao, you and the chief will go and sign the documents later."
When Man Bao and Bai Shan Bao came, they happened to meet them selecting lots, and they joined in the fun. They were shouting with the children who were watching.
The head of the house pressed down his hand, and the adults from each family quickly pressed down their children to tell them to be quiet.
The head of the village then said: "This year there are two adults in your village, so you don't need to take care of the farmland, but the Yongye farmland will be developed. Each family will have to contribute a laborer. In three days, they will start to work in the fields and open up wasteland. Village Chief Zhou, this
I’ll leave the matter to you.”
The village chief quickly agreed and said it was no problem.
This is also a customary rule. Except for the families of orphans and widows, every family must have a laborer.
Therefore, in the village, whichever family has more males will take advantage.
For example, Zhou Dayuan's family only had one son, so they would allocate Yongye land once, and Lao Zhoutou only had to provide him with the labor of one son.
But Lao Zhoutou has six sons. If he can divide the fields six times, his family will have six times of labor. Do you think he will lose?
But there is nothing we can do about it. This is not only a rule in one mile, but a rule in the entire county, and even in other places. Now it is organized by the village, and it is relatively loose. The people in this village are basically responsible for the newly allocated Yongye field in the village.
, it is said that earlier, in order to prevent laborers from being lazy, villagers from this village were transferred to another village. They just had to eat, drink and live outside, and they were squeezed to do a lot more work.
So no one dares to complain about this kind of thing outside.
But it was different at home. Zhou Dayuan's daughter-in-law was very angry. As soon as she got home, she started banging in the yard. She pointed at the hen at home and scolded the locust tree, saying that it could only lay eggs and had no other abilities.
To use it, you have to let her raise chicks for it.
Bai Shanbao, who was accompanying Man Bao to pick up pebbles on the house floor, heard this and asked Man Bao curiously, "I think your neighbor speaks strangely. In addition to laying eggs, what else does the hen do?"
Of course, Man Bao didn't understand Zhang's sarcasm. After thinking about it, he felt that what she said was a bit unreasonable, so he felt sorry for their hen: "Don't pay attention to her. Da Yuan's wife is a bit weird. She talks a lot."
I couldn’t understand what they were saying. My mother said that since she didn’t understand, she wouldn’t listen. What she said didn’t make sense.”
Bai Shanbao nodded, but still said: "Their chicken is really pitiful, why don't we pull some grass for it to eat later."
"There is no tender grass now and they won't eat it," Man Bao said, "They only like to eat bugs and vegetables now. How about we pick vegetables for them to eat."
"OK."
Man Bao took him to the vegetable garden of Zhou Dayuan's house. He pointed to the confiscated cabbage and said, "Here, this is their cabbage."
Bai Shanbao stepped forward unceremoniously and pulled out one. This scene happened to be seen by a young daughter-in-law next to her. She opened her mouth wide and was about to speak when she saw Manbao stepping forward to help him pull out the cabbage. Then the two of them walked away holding the cabbage.
Went outside the wall of Zhou Dayuan's house, worked together to move a stone, stepped on it and climbed up the soil.
The fences in farmyards are not too high, and most of them are earth walls or fences.
Zhou Dayuan's house has an earthen wall. The two children pushed me and I pulled you, and they climbed up the wall in no time. Then they tore off the vegetable leaves and threw them to the hens below, still cooing in their mouths.
, coaxed: "Eat quickly, you won't feel sad if you are scolded when you are full."
Watching this scene, the young daughter-in-law couldn't help but walked forward curiously. Manbao saw her and said hello, "Hello, sister-in-law. My sister-in-law went to the vegetable garden and came back."
"Yeah," the other party looked a little weird and couldn't help but ask, "Man Bao, what are you doing?"
"Feed the chickens?"
Young wife: “Isn’t this the chicken from Big Donkey’s family? How can you help feed their chickens?”
"Da Yuan's wife was scolding the chicken and saying she wouldn't give it anything to eat. I thought it was too pitiful, so I fed it."
The little daughter-in-law couldn't help but laugh, and asked, "Where does this dish come from?"
"Well, right there."
"Isn't that Big Donkey's vegetable garden?"
"Yes, of course you have to use their vegetables to feed his chickens."
The younger daughter-in-law actually felt that what she said was right.
She didn't leave, so she leaned against the wall and watched them feeding the chickens inside. Zhang heard something going on in the yard. When she looked up, she saw two children sitting on the wall. She was so angry that she fell back and stared.
He opened his eyes and asked, "What are you doing?"
The little daughter-in-law immediately said: "Sister-in-law, Man Bao and Young Master Bai are feeding your chickens vegetables. They said they heard you scolding the chickens and refused to feed them. The two children took pity on them and went to pull vegetables to feed them.
"
Only then did Da Yuan’s daughter-in-law see that the two children were actually holding cabbage in their hands, tearing it into pieces and throwing it down from the wall. She looked a little better and said, "Why are you sitting on the wall if you want to feed the chickens?"
"
Man Bao tore up the vegetables in his hands and threw them down. He clapped his hands and said, "We're afraid you'll hit us."
Bai Shanbao nodded matter-of-factly, also feeling that this woman was very fierce.
Man Bao turned around and was about to climb down the wall. The little daughter-in-law who was standing below immediately reached out and took her down. She also took Bai Shanbao down. After they had walked hand in hand for a long distance, they smiled at Mrs. Zhang inside the wall.
He said: "Sister-in-law, two children pulled this vegetable from your garden. I thought you wanted to blame them for feeding you chickens, so I stayed for a while and saw that you didn't blame me. I felt relieved. Sister-in-law is indeed reasonable."
Zhang's face was immediately as black as stained with ink, and she was very angry.
The younger daughter-in-law covered her mouth and laughed. Her family is also a neighbor of Zhou Dayuan's family. Coincidentally, they even have vegetable gardens connected together, so they often quarrel.
Your family hoeed the grass in my field. When your family hoeed the ground, they hoeed the corridor too much. There were so many trivial things. She stayed here just to see how angry Mrs. Zhang was. Now she saw that she was angry.
, then turned away happily, planning to take this thing back and share it with his family.
Mrs. Zhang was so angry that she hurried to the vegetable garden to take a look. Only then did she realize that a new cabbage leaf had been pulled out, and it had not been pulled out completely. There were two old leaves missing.
Zhang opened her mouth to scold him, but suddenly she remembered that she couldn't offend Man Bao, otherwise Qian would tear her apart, so she wanted to scold Mr. Bai instead, but found that she couldn't offend him even more. She was so angry that she couldn't vent it.
