Chapter 78 Breaking the Corn

Fields of corn.

Zhou Lao Er, who had just sat down and was about to rest for a while, saw Fat Miao'er pause, and asked in surprise, "Why are you here?"

"Let's get to work!"

Fat Miaoer answered as a matter of course, with a pair of big eyes, looking at the cornfield full of joy, these are all her food.

No, only half is her food.

"No, no, I don't need your help."

Zhou Laoer twitched the corners of his mouth and forced a smile.

"Didn't it be agreed at the beginning that the Zhou family would be responsible for harvesting, and each person would get half of the harvest."

"Oh! By the way..." Zhou Er Er seemed to have remembered something.

"Didn't we sign the document at the beginning, or signed it under the witness of Sun Lizheng, He Xiucai, and shopkeeper Li? We can't count our words."

Zhou Laoer's words became more and more fluent, put down the water bag and stood up, showing a kind smile like an elder.

He also patted Fat Miao'er's head, and said affectionately: "Fat Miao'er, don't worry, we are all one family, it should be yours or yours, and the second uncle will definitely make this corn on the cob neat for you send it over."

"Okay, you guys go back quickly, there are many things at home, and you have to sell boiled frogs, so don't delay the business."

Zhou Er Er rubbed his hands, winked his eyebrows and said, "I heard that you can earn hundreds of Wen a day, don't forget Er Bo when you are prosperous!"

Hearing this, Fat Miao'er pursed her lips, and said flatly: "Second Uncle is too much, we are just earning hard money."

Zhou Lao Er smacked his lips and clicked his tongue twice.

"Look, I'm still hiding from my second uncle."

"No, what I said is the truth." Fat Miao'er naturally refused to admit it.

Zhou Laoer didn't bother with this matter, exchanged a few words of pleasantries, turned around and entered the corn field, broke off two corn cobs nearby and threw them into the basket.

But when he turned his head, he saw that Fat Miao'er and the others were still standing on the ground, and they hadn't left.

"Why haven't you left yet?"

Zhou Laoer frowned and turned back again.

Fat Miao'er glanced at it, lowered her head, found a clean place to sit down, and said in a childish voice, "I can't trust my uncle!"

Zhou Er Er: "..."

This is embarrassing!

"Is there anything you can't believe?"

The corner of Zhou Laoer's mouth twitched, and he said angrily, "Could it be that the second uncle is still greedy for your food?"

"It's impossible to say."

Fat Miao'er shook her little head, showing her courtesy for nothing, rape or steal.

Especially his second uncle, lazy and greedy, every time the old Zhou's family had work, he would find a way to avoid it, this time he was so proactive and considerate that he didn't need their help, it was obviously tricky.

"Sit here if you want!"

"Living under the same roof for so many years, I don't even have this kind of trust, alas! Our old Zhou's food is free!"

Zhou Laoer shook his head, with a face full of disappointment, ignored Fat Miao'er, and started working on his own.

Liu Ye'er at the side looked at the sweaty figure, and whispered in Fat Miao'er's ear: "Your second uncle seems to be a nice person, very hardworking."

"Shouldn't you be greedy for our food?" Liu Ye'er asked uncertainly.

From her point of view, Zhou Lao Er's smiling face doesn't seem like a bad person.

Fat Miao'er glanced at it with strange eyes.

"Sister, your vision is not good. My second uncle is notorious in the village for his insensitivity."

"I think he's quite in tune." Liu Ye'er pointed.

Zhou Lao Er was struggling to break off the corn cobs, and in a short while, the basket he was carrying was already more than half full.

"It's just that it's out of tune." Fat Miao'er vowed.

"Think about it, a person who is out of tune all day, suddenly becomes out of tune, why?"

"Why?" Compass puzzled.

Fat Miao'er took a deep breath: "Think about it carefully."

Wei Shu smiled: "Driven by profit."

"Huh?" Several people turned their heads to look at him in unison.

Wei Shu looked at the figure in the ground, his clear eyes seemed to have seen through everything.

"Fat Miao'er's guess is right. A person who has nothing to do all day and is idle, suddenly becomes diligent, then there must be other plans."

"En!" Li Xiaodao nodded in agreement.

"Don't forget, the couple sold boiled frogs, which caused the villagers to have a stomachache."

Li Xiaodao experienced this personally. When he was surrounded by everyone, he was like a lone wolf, determined to die.

Unexpectedly, Ma Shi jumped out by himself.

"Brother is right, he is not a good person."

Liu Ye'er was awakened, and her impression of Zhou Lao Er fell to the bottom.

As time passed, Li Xiaodao, Compass, and Wei Shuxian were bored and went into the corn field to help break the corn cobs.

Liu Ye'er wanted to go too, but was grabbed by Fat Miao'er and dragged to her side.

"Sister, you accompany me."

Fat Miao'er stretched out two fingers, pointed to his own eyes, then pointed to Liu Ye'er's eyes.

"The four eyes of the two of us must be widened. Watch carefully, don't let my second uncle play any tricks."

"This... alright!" Liu Ye'er agreed, and sat down side by side with Fat Miao'er, staring at the movement in the cornfield.

After a while.

The Ma brothers came out, carrying baskets full of corn cobs in their hands.

When they saw Fat Miao'er, they were taken aback, and then greeted calmly.

"Fat Meow, why did you come here?"

"Look at the ground!" Fat Miao'er said bluntly.

The Ma brothers disagreed: "There's nothing to see in the land, you can't run here."

Fat Miao'er smiled and said nothing.

The brothers of the Ma family saw that she was silent and lost the interest in chatting, so they walked out carrying baskets.

"What are you doing?" Fat Miao'er turned to stop him.

"This basket is full, let's send it back to Zhou's house and break it again."

The Ma brothers looked at each other and answered naturally.

"What a waste of time."

Fat Miao'er stood up, slapped his buttocks, ran over, grabbed the basket from the Ma brothers' hands by surprise, and fell to the ground with lightning speed.

"What are you doing?"

The Ma brothers got angry, and all the good corn cobs were tossed to the ground, and they had to pretend, wasting time!
The Ma family brothers glared: "Go, go, don't make trouble here, go and play!"

With that said, they squatted down, ready to pick up corn cobs.

Fat Miao'er reached out to stop him, and said loudly, "It's a long way from here to Zhou's house. Why don't you pour the broken corn cobs on the ground, and distribute them uniformly after breaking them all."

Fat Miao'er thought very simply, take away what belongs to the Zhou family, and take away what belongs to her.

"This, this is not good!" The Ma brothers frowned slightly.

"What's wrong?"

Fat Miao'er tilted his head, with big black eyes, staring straight at the past.

"It's not safe to put it on the ground." The boss of the Ma family blurted out.

"Yes! It's not safe, it's not safe!" Ma's second child responded immediately.
