Chapter 38
He lifted Su Jinli up, let her sit on his lap, and asked, "Little Jinli, did you really read watermelon in your father's book?"

Su Jinli nodded, "Grandpa, I really have seen it, and it also said that it is best to plant it in sand."

Old man Zhou frowned and thought for a while, "Since the little koi said that it was seen in your father's book, third child, you can try it. The two fields at the foot of the mountain are sandy land, and I will plant them for you."

When Zhou Zhoulang heard this, he immediately said, "Hey, hey, I see, Dad, don't worry, I will never waste these two pieces of land."

After finishing speaking, Zhou Zhoulang winked at Su Jinli.

Su Jinli smiled sweetly at him, "Little uncle, come on."

In a word, Zhou Zhoulang immediately became full of energy, grabbed a small half of the seeds, and went to the field with a hoe to turn the ground and plant them.

For several days in a row, Zhou Zhoulang was not in the field, but squatted in front of two wooden basins and muttered to himself. Su Jinli followed him, not feeling tired.

Finally, after the seeds of the bubble hair were planted and the young seedlings grew, the uncle and nephew showed a sense of accomplishment at the same time.

After the watermelon seedlings grew three leaves, Zhou Zhoulang was busy transplanting them.

Finally, it took a few days to plant both fields, and Zhou Zhoulang gradually relaxed.

However, after Zhou Zhoulang's experiments, he found that the seeds soaked in warm water germinated quickly and were not wasted. On the contrary, the seeds that were planted in cold water or directly planted in the ground were not only slow to emerge, but many of them did not grow.

When digging open the soil covering the seeds, it was found that such seeds were either rotten or eaten by birds, and they were basically not good.

Old man Zhou and Zhou Dalang were almost dazed when they saw Zhou Zhoulang observing the two fields of watermelons every day like a baby.

On this day, Zhou Dalang finally couldn't help asking, "Sanlang, you have to ask daddy to give you two pieces of sand, and you run into it every day, what kind of person are you?"

Zhou Zhoulang looked at the already green watermelon seedlings, and said with a smile, "Brother, I don't know, it was the little koi who said what kind of watermelon it was, and said it was sweet and crispy when it was ripe, and it was delicious, so I wanted to try it." See if it can be planted."

Zhou Dalang, "Is it the seeds you bought from the barbarians?"

Zhou Zhoulang nodded, "Brother, this is it, how do you know?"

Zhou Dalang didn't speak, he glanced at Zhou Zhoulang inexplicably, and then complained to the old man Zhou, "Father, the third child is messing around with the little koi, you can let them do it, those two fields are not small, if we plant corn and sorghum, we The family can collect more food, so it is wasted."

Old man Zhou didn't speak, just glanced at the confident Zhou Zhoulang, and walked out the door with his hands behind his back.

On Wednesday Langcai didn't care what his elder brother's expression was, and said with a smile, "Brother, don't worry, I'm sure I can grow watermelons."

Zhou Dalang, "Forget it, I'm too lazy to bother you, just toss around if you like, and don't regret it if you can't grow it."

Zhou Zhoulang just laughed, "Brother, no, the little koi is our family's lucky bag, she said that she can grow it, and she will definitely grow it."

Su Jinli seems to have become Zhou Zhoulang's little follower now, and he nodded frantically when he heard this.

Seeing this scene, Zhou Dalang thought of his niece's luck again, so he didn't speak again.

After all, the niece is recognized as a blessing in the family, and maybe it really made Saburo toss it out.

In the evening, old man Zhou came back with his hands behind his back, his face was obviously not good.

After the whole family finished their dinner quietly, Mrs. Yang nudged Zhou Dalang with her elbow, "Master, did something happen at home?"

Zhou Dalang looked puzzled, "Daughter-in-law, why do you ask such a question?"

Mrs. Yang glanced in the direction of the main room, "I saw that Dad's complexion was not good, so I wondered if something happened at home."

Zhou Dalang shook his head, "No, I saw that Dad went to the village in the afternoon, and didn't hear anything."

After glaring at Zhou Dalang, Mrs. Yang resented the lack of iron and said, "Dad's expression was not right during the meal, you should ask about it."

Zhou Dalang scratched his head and went to the main room.

In the main room, Mrs. Zhou was also asking the old man, "Old man, what's wrong with you? You just look like this when you come back."

Old man Zhou was silent for a while, and finally spoke, "In the afternoon, I went to the village head's house and asked about the school in the village. I think the village head means that the school in our village may not be able to run. "

After saying this, he arched his back, sat on the stool, and looked at the ground. Mrs. Zhou couldn't see the expression on his face clearly.

But it was obvious that the old man's slightly old body seemed to be bending more and more at this time.

The old lady didn't know what to say, she was silent for a while, and then said, "It's really not possible, let Xiaoyang go to study in Ziyun County, this child, his uncle said when he was there, has some talent for reading, we can't delay him .”

The family always thought that the village chief would go outside to invite a teacher to re-run the village school, but no one thought that the village chief had no such intention.

After Mrs. Zhou finished speaking, she saw Zhou Dalang coming towards the main room. She called Zhou Dalang to stop, "Boss, go and call your daughter-in-law, Xiaoyang, the second and third child. I have something to say to your father."

Zhou Dalang paused, turned around and went to the kitchen, called Yang Shi, Zhou Zhoulang, Zhou Zhoulang and Zhou Yang.

When the three younger ones heard Zhou Dalang calling for someone, they also followed to the main room.

Seeing Su Jinli following in, Mrs. Zhou beckoned her to go, "Little Jinli, come to grandma."

Su Jinli let go of Zhou Ying's hand, walked up to the old lady with short legs, "Grandma?"

Mrs. Zhou touched Su Jinli's round eyes, "It's okay, don't be afraid."

Su Jinli nestled in the old lady's arms obediently.

Seeing that everyone has arrived, Mrs. Zhou said straight to the point, "Boss, eldest daughter-in-law, in the afternoon, your father went to the village head's house and asked about the village school, according to the village head's intentions." , Our village school may not be able to run, I discussed it with your father, and I plan to let Xiaoyang go to Ziyun County to study."

After saying this, Mrs. Zhou said, "Boss, eldest daughter-in-law, second child, third son, Xiao Yang, you also said, what do you think?"

Mrs. Yang didn't expect that old man Zhou's face was ugly because of this incident, and she was a little ashamed for a while. As a mother, she was thinking about making money all day long, and she didn't have a father-in-law who cared about her children.

"Father, mother, I will listen to you on this matter."

Zhou Dalang doesn't know much about studying, but he also knows that his brother-in-law once said that Xiaoyang is good at studying. Now that the village school is closed, he can only go to Ziyun County if he wants to study. He stands beside Yang , Said, "Father, mother, I am the same as my daughter-in-law in this matter, and I will listen to your elders."

Mrs. Zhou looked at Zhou Zhou Lang and Zhou Zhou Lang.

Lang said on Tuesday, "The family is not short of money now, and I agree to send Xiaoyang to study in Ziyun County."

"Mother, don't look at me. I have the same opinion as the second brother. In our family, only Xiaoyang can read, and the second brother and I can read. Xiaoxing is also not fond of reading. Of course, he must continue to study." Seeing that everyone's eyes were on him, Zhou Zhoulang immediately said.
