Wangfu small peasant girl

Chapter 1325 Rejection
Zhao Ergou made up his mind, and came to Yongning Village after a day of strolling, planning to talk to Xu Pingwen, catch up on the old days or something.

The two of them haven't met since the day they parted in the yamen. They don't know what Xu Pingwen is doing at home recently, and they haven't looked for him. Could it be that they have found a profitable business?

When Zhao Ergou was walking, he broke a few cucumbers in the vegetable field by the roadside, wiped off the burrs on his clothes, and ate them while walking, doing nothing. After a while, he arrived at Yongning Village. Far.

It was the busy farming season at this time, and it was time to thresh. As soon as he entered the village, he saw people cutting rice everywhere in the surrounding fields. The sun was shining right now, and those people were sweating profusely.

When Zhao Ergou saw it, he was very disdainful, that's what idiots do.

How much money can be earned throughout the year, isn't it just eating by myself, and I am exhausted.

He knew where Xu Pingwen's house was, and he used to run here often, all the way to Xu's house, and he saw a familiar figure in the field beside the road.

Zhao Ergou still couldn't believe it, and only after getting closer did he recognize that the person was Xu Pingwen. He was cutting rice alone in the field, and Zhao Ergou called out, "Brother Xu?"

Xu Pingwen originally turned his back to the road. Hearing the sound, he quickly turned his head and stood up straight. As soon as he stood up, the sweat dripped from his forehead. He wiped it with a smile, "Ah, Ergou It's you, why are you here?"

Zhao Ergou looked at the sweat on his forehead in disbelief, and he stuttered, "Brother Xu, what are you doing here? What are you doing here in such hot weather? "

"It's time to thresh. I'm cutting the rice, and I'll do it in the afternoon." Xu Pingwen looked behind him, he had just cut such a wide field, and immediately felt a sense of accomplishment.

After doing the work for so many days, he has become more and more comfortable. If he was the first to go to the field, he would not be able to last for so long. He has been busy this morning, so he took a break, and the results are still very obvious.

Zhao Ergou was very surprised, "Why, your family forced you to work in the field? How are you doing this? Look, your skin is red from the sun. You should go back quickly. Why are you alone? Do it here? Why don't they do it? You are really stupid, if you tell you to do it, you will do it, and you won't pretend to be sick."

The current Xu Pingwen is very different from what he remembered. Zhao Ergou didn't realize that Xu Pingwen had changed for a while, so he subconsciously felt that Xu's family forced him to do so.

Xu Pingwen smiled, "No, I did it myself. Ergou, I figured it out. I used to be an asshole. In the future, I want to live a good life and stop worrying my family. You should be fine too."

It was almost noon at this time, and it was time to go back to have lunch in a while. Xu Pingwen looked around and everyone started to finish work one after another. He simply came up from the field.

The Xu family has rice in several fields. Today Xu Linsong and Xu Linbai are harvesting the rice that was cut yesterday in another field, and he is the only one here.

He's quite lucky, if his father sees Zhao Ergou, he probably thinks he's a bad learner again.

Fortunately, he is not here, otherwise he has to explain. When he came up, Zhao Ergou walked over, "Brother Xu, is what you just said true or false?"

Xu Pingwen thought for a while before he understood what Zhao Ergou meant. He nodded and wiped the sweat off his forehead, "Of course it's true. Didn't you see my face? I've been in the sun recently. Every day, I go to the fields with my family to work.”

"It was tiring at first, but it will be fine once you get used to it, Ergou, just listen to my advice, let's stop messing around like this, and live a good life, although there is no one in your house, but you Tell your villagers, let them rent two plots of land for you to grow, no matter how much harvest they get, anyway, you can’t starve yourself to death, what do you think?”

After hearing this, Zhao Ergou laughed out loud, as if he heard some funny joke.

He laughed so hard that he covered his stomach, "Oh, Brother Xu, what are you talking about? Can people like us get better?"

"Don't pretend to be with me. Tell the truth, is it because your family forced you to say this now? Anyway, there is no one here. Just tell me the truth."

"I haven't come to you for the past few days. I was thinking of an idea. I have already thought about it. We still have to go to the town to make a living. What is the future of this countryman? He works with the loess in the field all day long. A little food is enough to feed myself, so I am useless."

When Xu Pingwen heard this, he frowned, "Ergou, how can you say that? I only found out when I went to work in the field with my family recently. Although the work is hard, but looking at the grain in the field, one It’s still very refreshing to take a burden home.”

"If we have hands and can support ourselves, it would be a shame. We are indeed peasants, and we don't have the ability to make a living in the town. I didn't want to do those things before, so don't ask me."

Seeing him like this, Zhao Ergou was also a little unhappy, "What do you mean, I came to you as a brother, you think I can't find a way out? Tell me this here, don't think I see I don't know what kind of person you are."

"Whoever loves this kind of bad life, I can't do it anyway, so don't be sideways with me. I bet you will get bored after a while."

"How much money do you earn all year round? How much money did we earn a month before? Think about it for yourself. Who can live a life like that? If you figure it out, come to me. We have thought about the way to make a living, and we can still live the happy life before."

After finishing speaking, without waiting for Xu Pingwen to speak, he turned around and left.

Xu Pingwen opened his mouth, but he didn't stop him, he took the water bottle, turned around and went home.

When he remembered what happened just now, he was quite scared. Zhao Ergou said that he had found a way out to make a living, and he almost asked him what the way out was.

It's a good thing I didn't ask, if I did, I might have to follow Zhao Ergou on the same path as before, he didn't want to do that, life is pretty good now.

Xu Pingwen went home alone, and met Xu Linsong and Xu Linbo at the door of the house. They came from the other side and planned to go home for lunch. Seeing him, Xu Linbo said, "Pingwen, over there How is the harvesting of the millet, I'm going to harvest there in the afternoon."

Xu Pingwen smiled and nodded, "Second Uncle, don't worry, the mowing is almost done, and I will go to work in the afternoon, and I will definitely finish the land over there."
