Xu Qingzhi passed through the back door of Grandpa's house, went up the mountain behind, and took a look at the persimmon grove at Grandpa's house. These persimmon trees have been planted for many years.
Sensing that there was no one around, she ordered two little ones to come out and water the water.
The crow and big cat suddenly jumped out, frightening the big yellow dog.
Soon, its four paws were firmly clasped on the ground, its body was slightly pressed down, and it bared its teeth fiercely: "Woof, woof, woof!"
The crow had already disliked it, so it flew up and slapped the big yellow dog on the head, which stunned the big yellow dog. How could a bird be so fierce?
The big yellow dog flew up and tried to bite, but missed.
Then, the crow stood proudly on Xu Qingzhi's shoulder, and sang a song of victory in the direction of the big yellow dog, "Quack, quack, quack~".
The big yellow dog whined and circled around Xu Qingzhi, its tail wagging slower.
"Okay, don't bully Dahuang, he is my grandpa's dog." Xu Qingzhi scolded Crow Crow and told the two little dogs to water them quickly.
She found a thicker pile of pine hair next to her, sat on it, and touched the head of Dahuang, who was still whimpering and aggrieved next to her.
Dahuang's whimpering voice gradually became quieter, and then he wagged his tail happily.
After Xu Qingzhi visited the persimmon grove, he went to the mountain next to the temple to visit the chestnut grove that his grandfather had planted before.

The beginning of autumn arrives quietly.
Fruit trees have been planted in the back mountain of the Xu family in full swing, including peach trees, plum trees, kiwi trees, grapefruit trees, pomegranate trees, loquat trees...
Any fruit trees that can be planted can be found on the back mountain.
However, a sudden autumn rain temporarily blocked the pace of planting.
Xu Fuqiang shouted to the people working in the fields to put away their tools and take shelter from the rain in a tool shed built nearby.
After a long time, the heavy rain did not stop.
From a distance, everyone saw an elegant figure holding an umbrella walking slowly.
Xu Fuqiang saw that her shoes were stained with mud, and frowned: "Qingzhi, what are you doing here in such a heavy rain?"
"I made some ginger tea. It suddenly rained heavily and the weather is still a bit cold. Let's all drink some." Xu Qingzhi closed the umbrella and pushed forward the pot of hot ginger tea in his hand. p>
When everyone heard this, their hearts couldn't help but feel warm.
These days I'm helping out at Xu's house. When they first volunteered to help, they were only provided with two meals. Within two days, because everyone with children had to go home to cook for their children, they changed it to paying wages. This job
The more you work, the more energetic you become.
However, the work in the field is almost finished soon, so everyone is still a little reluctant to part with it.
First, the Xu family has done a good job in dealing with people, allowing everyone to do the work easily, and they feel comfortable. Second, the money is given easily, and without this work, they will have to find other money-making jobs. There are disposable cups for drinking water in the tool house, and each of us drank half a cup of ginger tea. After drinking the warm tea, our whole bodies felt warm.
After everyone finished drinking the tea, the heavy rain gradually disappeared, leaving only raindrops dripping down from the tiles on the eaves.
It's almost evening, and Xu Fuqiang asked everyone to finish work early today.
The ground was full of water, and the soil was soaked. When I put the hoe down, all the mud was stuck to the hoe, making it difficult to work.
If there is no heavy rain tomorrow, the remaining work will be easier to do. The soil is half dry and half wet, which saves a lot of effort.
Xu Fuqiang was carrying a tea kettle, and Xu Qingzhi was carrying an umbrella, and they went home together.
Passing by the vegetable field, Xu Fuqiang looked at the vegetables that had not yet grown and looked sad.
It was not the first time that Xu Qingzhi saw her father's expression, and she knew what he was worried about, so she said, "Dad, this vegetable will have to grow slowly. We still have some savings at home, so don't worry."
"Well, Dad knows." Xu Fuqiang responded.
During this period, in addition to corn, radishes, celery, lettuce, spinach, and cabbage, the vegetable fields were filled with vegetables.
Xu Qingzhi planted Chinese cabbage, pea tips, coriander, zucchini, winter melon and pumpkin in the first few acres of land in the back mountain.
Thinking of this, Xu Qingzhi asked: "Dad, let me ask you a question."
"Ah?" Xu Fuqiang touched his head, "If it's an intelligence question, Dad can't answer it. Dad is not as smart as you."
"Just asking, it's a question about daily life." Xu Qingzhi asked: "Our family has eaten winter melon, watermelon and pumpkin, but have we ever eaten pumpkin?"
"No, there are no pumpkins here. How can we eat them?" Xu Fuqiang replied with a confident smile.
Xu Qingzhi was like a teacher correcting homework: "Wrong~"
She explained: "Our family has eaten pumpkins. In fact, zucchini is also called pumpkin. I planted some zucchini in the back mountain."
Xu Fuqiang smiled naively, "So it turns out that zucchini is also called by this name. Dad has learned a lot this time. I will test your mother with this question later, so don't say anything."
"Okay." Xu Qingzhi agreed.
After returning home, Xu Fuqiang took the test for his wife just like Xu Qingzhi had just done for him. Wang Yanmei also answered wrongly and angrily shouted at him out of the kitchen: "Go, go, don't hinder me from cooking."
Miles."
Xu Fuqiang came out of the kitchen cheerfully and whispered to Xu Qing: "Hey, your mother can't afford it. She even gets angry at me when she answers wrong questions."
Xu Qingzhi also smiled, looking at her mother who was busy in the kitchen and her father who was smiling.
