The leisurely life of farmers in mountain villages

Chapter 94 My little friend

Wang Shaodong explained the purpose of his visit, and Zheng Hui and Zheng Tao's family were very happy.

Twenty for one person a day, forty for two people, from the thirteenth day of the twelfth lunar month to the thirty-thirty of the twelfth lunar month, a total of eighteen days, that's 720 yuan.

With this money, you can have a good year.

Zheng Hui and Zheng Tao's father, Zheng Changyou, is the same age as Wang Fumin, but his birthday is only a few months younger.Their family is also known as an honest and responsible person in Taohualing Village. They have no skills and rely on planting a few acres of land and working as construction workers during slack seasons to make ends meet.

Zheng Changyou has a younger brother, named Zheng Changfeng, who has been working in the south for the past two years, earning some money, and married a beautiful Sichuan girl as his wife.Zheng Changyou saw that his younger brother was promising, and after his son graduated from junior high school, he sent his two sons to follow his younger brother Zheng Changfeng to work in the south.

Every year, I leave on the sixth day of the first lunar month, and don’t come back until the tenth day of the twelfth lunar month. I go to the south to work in different places. Zheng Changyou’s wife misses her two children very much.

Because Zheng Hui and Zheng Tao have only turned eighteen this year, and they have no skills or experience, they haven't made much money during the three years of working in the South. Very hard.

Compared with the hard work of working in the south, the job Wang Shaodong hired himself to do was really easy.

At six o'clock the next morning, according to the agreement, Zheng Hui arrived at Wang's house with his younger brother Zheng Tao on a motorcycle.

The door was open, Zheng Hui parked the motorcycle at the door, and then Zheng Tao jumped off the motorcycle and shouted inside: "Uncle Wang, my brothers are here."

A three-wheeled motorcycle was parked at the gate of the shed on the south side of Wang's house, and the lights in the yard were on.

The two brothers didn't see Uncle Wang, but saw their brother Wang coming out of the chicken coop with steam in his mouth.

While stuffing the chicken into the cage, Wang Shaodong smiled and said to Zheng Hui and Zheng Tao who came over: "Zheng Hui and Zheng Tao, you two came just in time, your aunt has cooked the noodles, you two go and eat them while they are hot .”

As soon as Wang Shaodong finished speaking, he saw Zhao Shiling coming out of the room wiping his hands with an apron, and said to Zheng Hui and Zheng Tao with a smile: "Hui and Tao are here, let's go to eat, auntie." Noodle."

Zheng Hui and Zheng Tao also smiled, rolled up their sleeves, and walked towards the chicken coop.

"Auntie, how can you not do your work and just think about eating? Let's help Brother Dongzi catch chickens."

"Yes, ma'am, let's help my Brother Dongzi catch chickens."

Wang Shaodong saw two of his little friends coming to help, and he didn't dissuade him, but nodded and said, "That's fine, let's eat the chicken together after catching them."

"Where's Uncle Wang?" Zheng Hui asked Wang Shaodong.

"I was drunk last night, and I haven't woken up yet."

The three caught it, and then Zhao Shiling packed up and came over to help catch the chicken.

Ninety chickens were quickly caught in the cage, and then Wang Shaodong called Zheng Hui and Zheng Tao to eat together in the house.

However, both Zheng Hui and Zheng Tao said they ate and refused to enter the house. In the end, Wang Shaodong and Zhao Shiling dragged them in.

Zhao Shiling served a bowl of noodles for each of the three people, and each also had a poached egg.

After entering the room, Wang Shaodong pulled Zheng Hui and Zheng Tao to sit down, then sat down himself, and said with a smile: "We have grown up together as brothers, why are you two so polite to me?"

Hearing what Wang Shaodong said, Zheng Hui and Zheng Tao felt a little embarrassed.

"Eat, children. Only when you are full can you have the strength to work. You are all babies, you can't be hungry, you still grow."

Zheng Hui and Zheng Tao looked at Wang Shaodong and smiled, then Zheng Hui nodded vigorously and said, "Well, let's eat."

Zheng Tao looked at Zhao Shiling innocently and said, "Ma'am, we've all grown up, not anymore."

"It's long, what should be long has to be long, the house sparrow's nest is not complete yet."

Wang Shaodong turned his head and saw that it was his father who got up.

When Zhao Shiling heard her husband speak like this, she lowered her face and reproached in a low voice: "It's not big or small, how can you talk like this in front of a child?"

Wang Fumin ignored his wife, walked up to Zheng Hui and Zheng Tao, touched their heads, pushed down the two boys who were about to stand up, and asked, "When did you two come back?"

As he spoke, Wang Fumin sat on the Eight Immortals chair next to the Eight Immortals table, and looked down condescendingly at the three juniors sitting at the small square table drinking noodles.

"Uncle, I've been back for two days."

Wang Fumin nodded, lit a cigarette, then looked at Zhao Shiling and asked, "Have you caught all the chickens?"

"The three children have already been caught."

Wang Fumin nodded again, looked at the thermos bottle on the table next to him, and then Zhao Shiling immediately understood and poured Wang Fumin a glass of water, and brought it over.

The three children quickly finished eating the noodles, and then they talked and laughed, rode their bicycles, and went out to deliver the chicken.

Zhao Shiling sent the child to the gate, but Wang Fumin didn't go out. He was a little dizzy. Besides, he was an elder, and the elder had to show some airs of the elder.

"Zheng Hui and Zheng Tao came to play with Dongzi?"

Zhao Shiling sent her son and the others away and went back to the house, then Wang Fumin looked at her and asked.

"No, it's because Dongzi and I discussed hiring them to accompany Dongzi last night. The whole village knows that our family is rich now. Dongzi's uncle said that Dongzi will be together early in the morning. It’s not safe for people to deliver chickens.”

Wang Fumin took a sip of water from the enamel jar, nodded, and said, "That's the case, then, how much money Dongzi promised to give to the two brothers?"

"Twenty for one person."

Wang Fumin's eyes stared for a moment, but he quickly returned to normal. Then he took another sip of water, thought for a while, shook his head and said, "It's fair to give ten yuan, and twenty yuan to each person is taken care of. Look, Dongzi intends to win over these two brothers. Damn Dongzi, have you noticed that our son, the next step is to raise chickens, which is actually not bad."

Zhao Shiling was also happy, why can she earn 50 at once?And it only took five months to earn so much money at once, which shows that raising chickens is a promising career.

"You, you, don't burn the buns so much that you don't know your surname. It's because of your goddamn luck that you can go so smoothly..."

"Go, go, bear girls, don't pick up those unlucky nonsense, everything I do will go smoothly in the future."

Seeing her husband's expression change, Zhao Shiling immediately swallowed the words just now, covered her mouth and said, "Okay, okay, don't talk, don't talk, I'm tired all morning, I'm going to lie down for a while."

Seeing his wife go to bed, Wang Fumin frowned. Now that the family has so much money, what should they do next?
