Chapter 38 Autumn Harvest

Zhang Taiping suddenly stopped and looked at Wang Peng's face.

Wang Peng was looked at unnaturally for a while, so he couldn't help but stammered and asked in a low voice.

"No. It's not really murder, is it?"

Zhang Taiping smiled strangely: "What do you think?"

Wang Peng was horrified by the laughter, but he said stiffly: "Damn it, if you kill someone, you kill him. If you kill someone secretly, no one will know."

Zhang Taiping turned his head and continued to walk forward and said: "I'm just kidding you, how can you really kill people? That's against the law, and we don't do illegal things. It's also a lesson for you, don't take pictures outside Promise others with your chest."

Wang Peng breathed a sigh of relief and said quickly: "No, no, I only work with my elder brother, and others don't care about him at all."

"You can remember it in your mind."

"hey-hey."

Zhang Taiping didn't care about Wang Peng's smirk: "I carve some wood carvings in my spare time, and you sell them, and you keep the money."

"Rotten wood? Does anyone want this?" Wang Peng asked uncertainly.

"What kind of rotten wood? An earth leopard without artistic talent!" Zhang Taiping slapped Wang Peng on the back of the head and scolded with a smile, "It can be bought for tens of dollars in the city, and a better carved one can be sold for hundreds of dollars." bucks."

Wang Peng's eyes widened: "The people in this city really have so much money, they use it to buy wood for fun!"

Zhang Taiping smiled helplessly, and couldn't explain clearly to this guy, so he just asked, "Do you want to do it or not?"

"Why don't you do it? Then when will you sell it?" Wang Peng looked like he would be a fool if he didn't do it.

"Don't be in a hurry for the next few days. I'll talk about it after breaking the corn. I will call you when I enter the city."

After talking about this matter, Zhang Taiping asked again: "How many acres of corn in your family?"

"Not much, just over an acre." Wang Peng replied indifferently.

"Don't run around during this time, help your aunt at home, it's not easy for her to drag you alone." Zhang Taiping knows that Wang Peng is still quite filial, but sometimes he can't control himself, and he listens to his own words the most , I couldn't help exhorting a few words.

"Well, I know. Brother, how many acres does your family have?"

"It's more than four acres. I don't know exactly how much it is." Zhang Taiping replied with a little shame. He didn't care about family affairs at all before, let alone how many lands he won. All of this was done by Cai Yazhi alone. Rationale.

"There are quite a lot. I will help your family when the time comes."

Zhang Taiping felt that Wang Peng was still like a child, he would try to get close to whomever he had a good relationship with, and he was unwilling to do the work in his own family, but he was happy to do the same work in other people's family.

"You'd better break and play with your family first, you can't let your mother break it alone."

"That's for sure. I'll help you after breaking my house."

Zhang Taiping didn't stop him anymore, in his head, this might be a way to express intimacy.

When passing by Wang Peng's house, the lights in his house were still on.There was only the old man in the room, but the light was still on. He was clearly worried about Wang Peng and had been waiting for him to come back.It was not until Wang Peng entered the room for a while that the lights were turned off.

This is maternal love, "Before leaving, I am afraid that I will return later."

Zhang Taiping stood alone in front of Wang Peng's house for a while.It's really not easy for a woman to raise her son alone, and besides, the son is often not clear-headed, worrying about him all the time.If you can help me in the future, please help me more.

Back home, Cai Yazhi had already fallen asleep.Ah Huang barked twice when he heard the sound, Zhang Taiping made a sound, and ran out to greet him with his tail raised.The lion also roared a few times, and the immature voice could not scare people, but made people feel cute.

Zhang Taiping entered the room without disturbing Cai Yazhi, he closed the door gently and went back to sleep in the back room.

In the next few days, when Zhang Taiping was free, he continued to carve all kinds of ornaments and objects with a carving knife, big and small, simple and complex.They can't all be carved into one style or equal position. After all, different people have different consumption specifications and preferences, so it is necessary to prepare well and try to meet various consumption standards.

Of course, it is the kind of small items that are simple, cheap and lovable that are made the most.For example, the twelve zodiac signs, such as various interesting characters in comics and so on.There are also large and cumbersome ones, but there are few.The main reason is that most of this kind of large-scale wood carvings are carved separately to carve the various parts, and then combined together, it takes more time and the price is correspondingly much higher.Only people who really like it are willing to spend this money.

When breaking Baogu, Cai Xiaomei also came back on Sunday after saving up.In her impression, Zhang Dashuai didn't go into the field, and only his sister was busy with the work. The corn on the four acres of land had to be broken and pulled, and all the corn stalks in the field had to be dug up.If my sister came down alone, she would definitely be exhausted, and I felt sorry for my sister, so I figured it was time to break Baogu, and I went home on Sunday.

Surprisingly, Zhang Taiping went to the ground this year, and he is still the main force.

The two sisters only need to break off the corn and pack it.The rest of the work included carrying from the field to the top of the field, pulling it with a cart, and digging up corn stalks. Zhang Taiping did it all by himself.

The two sisters broke the stalks in front, and Zhang Taiping dug the stalks behind. Although it was much more tiring and laborious than breaking the corn, Zhang Taiping's speed was not slower than the two of them, and he kept following them closely.

People are in good spirits on happy occasions.For the two sisters, it is a great joy for Zhang Taiping to be able to work in the fields, and they are also very energetic when they work.

Yaya is playing with the lion and the little squirrel on the edge of the ground.The parrot didn't know where it flew to. Since that guy came to Zhang Taiping's house, he has been wandering around in the mountains. He didn't need Zhang Taiping to feed him deliberately. He only remembered to fly back at night. the inn.As soon as Ah Huang entered the ground, he ran away with a croak.

One acre of land was cleaned up in one morning.

It was only after returning home at noon that Zhang Taiping had a deep understanding of Cai Yazhi's hardships in the past few years.It would be a little tiring with a body like my own, let alone a weak woman.It's my first time doing farm work, and I can't rule out the reason for excessive consumption due to improper force, but I can't deny that this is really a tiring job.

I usually look at other people as if they are very relaxed, but that is the result of ten years of continuous training.Only when I got to myself did I realize that being a farmer is really not easy. After paying such a high price, the harvest is not proportional.

I don't know what kind of belief Cai Yazhi has persisted in these past few years!

After lunch, we took a short break, and then continued our journey.The afternoon is much more efficient than the morning.

After working like this for a whole day, I finally broke off all the corn on the four acres of land and brought them home.The fields are also cleaned up, and winter wheat can be planted just waiting for the next rain.Now the ground is too dry. If the wheat seeds cannot germinate in time after sowing, the ground will be flattened after the next rain.

When Cai Xiaomei saw the objects carved by Zhang Taiping when she was leaving, she discussed with Zhang Taiping.

"Dashuai Zhang, I need to discuss something with you."

Cai Xiaomei still has some prejudices against Zhang Taiping, and she hasn't spoken to Zhang Taiping for two days since she came back. Now that she has taken the initiative to speak, Zhang Taiping also wants to see what she wants to discuss.

"Well, let's talk about it."

"I got the wooden figure from the school last time, and the students in our dormitory and the surrounding dormitories liked it very much. I thought, maybe there are quite a few girls in the school who like it, so I will discuss it with you. You have carved so many, I First take a few pieces to the school to see if anyone buys them. If someone buys them, how about we split the bill?" Cai Xiaomei said confidently.

"You take it, if you can sell all the money to you, I don't want it." Zhang Taiping said with a smile.

"If you say [-]% of the account, then [-]% of the account, you carve and I sell, I will not take advantage of you." Looking at the smile on Zhang Taiping's face, Cai Xiaomei blushed but said in a firm voice.

Zhang Taiping felt amused in his heart, smiled and said without pointing it out: "It's up to you. It's just that you can't take too much at one time. I promised Wang Peng that I will find him a job. This is just right for him."

"Well, I can't take much." He just picked out a few small animals and cartoon characters and put them in his schoolbag before going to school.

fair enough.It is estimated that she would not take money from her family.In this way, she can make some money from herself through hard work, and she will not feel burdened.You can also use some spare money to buy things that your peers like.

The corn ears were pulled back and all piled up under the osmanthus tree in the middle courtyard.Zhang Taiping built more than a dozen wooden frames with wooden poles in the front yard and under the eaves. In a few days' spare time, he could peel off the corn husks and tie them together to hang on the wooden frames.This is a scene in Guanzhong. After harvesting the fruit, there will be bunches of golden ears of corn hanging in front of every house, on the eaves and even on the trees.A harvest scene can add a lot of festive atmosphere to the peaceful mountain village.

After the corn is peeled and tied, two strings of red peppers are hung on both sides of the door frame, which is an authentic scene of a small farmyard in Guanzhong.

The peeled shells are left to dry in the yard and on the road.These husks can be used for cooking, and can also be used to burn kang in winter.

After a rain, it's time to plant the seeds.There are no modern planting machines in the small mountain village, and there are even few tractors, and most of them are cultivated with cattle.

Zhang Taiping's family has no farming cattle, so they can only rent other people's cattle.But there are not many farming cattle in the village, and so many families have to wait in line to plow the land.Zhang Taiping can do this work by himself, so he didn't let Cai Yazhi accompany him in the field, and just brought the meal when it was time.
