In the spring of March, apricot blossoms rain, the grass grows and the orioles fly and the swallows return.
In the paddy field where the spring rain continued, His Royal Highness the King of Jin wore a bamboo hat and a raincoat on his head, holding a tiller and whipping up a whip, driving the big buffalo forward with hooves, causing the muddy water in the tillage field to splash all over him.
The big and strong buffalo had a yoke around its neck, and the two ropes on both sides of the yoke were tied to the wooden frames on both sides of the hay.
The so-called rake is similar to a rake, but with longer teeth, like a large comb. There is a crossbar on the back of the comb for easy operation, which is also the last step in leveling the field.
To put it simply, field plowing means first using a plow to loosen the hardened soil; then using a rake to break up large pieces of soil; and finally using a rake to smooth the ground before transplanting rice...
The second and fourth children have finished raking their ten acres of land and are sitting with the sixth child in a shack on the edge of the field, taking shelter from the rain while admiring the embarrassing appearance of the third child.
"Even if I tell people now that this person is His Highness Prince Jin of the Ming Dynasty, no one will believe me." Zhu Di gloated.
"No, no one believes it." Zhu Xi also laughed.
It's not that they don't want to help the third brother, but that one plow was borrowed from Tang Jia. The second brother wanted to rake the ground for the third brother, but was firmly rejected by Zhu Sanlang, who was born to be strong.
"Don't laugh, he is so anxious that he will slap my Pingtian Monkey King." Zhu Zhen's focus was on his own cattle.
As the saying goes, love grows over time, this cow also has feelings after being kept for a long time. Zhu Zhen also gave it such a charming name.
There is also a nickname called ‘Bull Demon King’.
"Lao San, whip it gently! Lao Liu feels sorry for his cow!" Zhu Di put his hands to his mouth and shouted loudly.
"Then you come and pull the grass!" Zhu turned around and cursed angrily, but when he opened his mouth, he was splashed with muddy water.
This made the brothers burst into laughter again.
Laughing and laughing, making trouble and making trouble. Seeing that the rain was getting heavier and heavier, the brothers still left the shack and went to the fields to help the third child.
The King of Qin was pulling the cow in the front, the King of Yan was behind and supporting the hoe with the King of Jin, and the King of Chu was cheering from the side and feeding the old cow soybeans.
When you work in the fields, you need to feed the cows better.
As a result, in less than half an hour, the remaining land was tilled, and the four brothers became mud monkeys.
They immediately unloaded the grass from the big buffalo and led it into the river. Both the man and the cow had a pleasant bath.
As expected, King Jin and King Yan had another fierce water fight...
King Qin watched the excitement happily from the sidelines. When he saw who was at a disadvantage, he helped him so that the battle between the two would last longer.
Poor, weak and hungry Zhu Zhen never participated in games like this between macho men. To avoid harming Chi Yu, he hid far away and used a large wooden comb with fine teeth to comb the hair of the Great Sage Ping Tian. Because he discovered that the big buffalo likes to be combed. Whenever he shows the big wooden comb, Pingtian Monkey King will consciously rub it up. After a few brushes, the buffalo will droop its eyes in enjoyment and moo.
Get up...
The second brother's comment on this was, "This guy has the same hobby as our dad..."
Fortunately, Boss Zhu couldn't hear it, otherwise he would have been beaten and given some relief from his itch.
Anyway, since he learned how to ‘roll the cow’, Zhu Zhen has completely taken the initiative. Now the Great Sage Pingtian can touch him and ride him as he pleases. If he calls, he will come, if he calls, he will go...
Therefore, once someone grasps their weakness, they will be controlled by others. Even cattle are like this, let alone people.
~~
After all the people and cattle were washed, the brothers went back to the village laughing and joking.
The second brother is holding the cow, Zhu Zhen is riding on the back of the cow, the third brother and the fourth brother are bickering. It seems that life is not that hard anymore...
"Hey, hey, I, I like..." Anyway, at least that's what the second brother thinks.
'Gugu...' Zhu Zhen replied with a stomachache.
"The sixth brother is hungry, should the fifth brother prepare a meal?" The fourth brother actually couldn't compete with the third brother. He came over and wanted to ride a bull, but he ate one of the horns of the Great Sage Pingtian.
"Oops, it's almost done." The second brother looked at the sky, but it was actually so gloomy that he couldn't tell the time.
"No, I haven't cooked yet." The third brother said confidently.
"How do you know?"
"There is no smoke from our chimney." The third brother pointed to the smoke from the village.
"Oh, yes." The second brother suddenly realized, yes, you can judge the current time through the smoke.
"Weird." Zhu Di frowned. He knew his brother was extremely punctual. "Did someone ask him for medical treatment?"
"Stop guessing, just take two steps forward." Zhu Zhen patted the bull's head, and the Great Sage Pingtian started running.
The three brothers also followed behind, and they arrived at the door of the house in a blink of an eye.
"Lao Wu!" Zhu Di opened the ajar door and shouted, but no one answered.
His heart was in his throat because the yard was in a mess, and the herbs Lao Wu was drying were all knocked to the ground.
"Lao Wu!" Zhu Di quickly rushed into the back room, and then let out a yell containing anger and panic.
The second and third children hurriedly followed, and Zhu Zhen also rolled off the back of the cow and staggered to the door of the house.
I saw Fifth Brother being tied up on the kang, with a rag stuffed in his mouth. There was a black cloth bag next to him, which should have been the one who had just pulled over his head.
"Lao Wu, are you okay?" Zhu Di's eyes were red, and he quickly and carefully pulled the rag from Zhu Xi's mouth.
"Brother, I'm fine..." Lao Wu was shocked and shook his head in exhaustion.
The brothers breathed a sigh of relief and hurriedly helped him loosen his bonds and massaged his limbs to prevent him from getting hurt.
Zhu Di also secretly checked his brother's buttocks. Thank God, they were also intact...
"How dare you tie up my brother! I'll kill him!" After that, there was endless anger.
Zhu Xi's eyes were blood red, he picked up the hatchet and was about to go out and fight.
When he ran to the door of the house, he remembered that he still didn't know who to kill, so he had to stop and ask: "Who, who did it?"
Zhu Di also stared at his younger brother closely, clenching his fists loudly.
"I didn't see it." Lao Wu shook his head and said ashamedly: "It was going to rain at that time, and I was busy collecting the crude medicines in the patio. Suddenly my vision went dark, and my head was covered."
"Just when I was about to shout, I felt a pain in my back. I heard someone threatening me not to speak out, otherwise a white knife would go in and a red knife would come out. I didn't dare to speak out... and then I was made like this..."<
/p>
His Highness King Wu burst into tears. "I am so useless, I have embarrassed my father..."
"Don't cry, it's okay. Your reaction is right." The fourth brother quickly wiped his tears and said: "Human life is more important than anything else, let alone our lives."
"I'm not, I just feel bad." Zhu Ru cried: "They said that they were heroes from Jiucai Mountain, and because the village was short of food, they came to fight in the autumn wind and robbed our family of all the food. Ugh...
…”
"Ah?" All the brothers were shocked, and the third child rushed to the inner room, and sure enough he saw that the sacks filled with brown rice hanging on the beam were all gone...
Only pieces of chopped hemp rope and red rice grains scattered on the ground were left, which together formed the appearance of a crime scene.
