Chapter 215
Hearing that the old man looked at the children and grandchildren behind him who were working hard on the ground, there was a luster of interest in his eyes.

"How many rounds did you kill?"

Mr. Jin nodded, "Yes, kill a few rounds."

"Okay, old man, it's time for me to rest, and we'll kill a few rounds in the afternoon."

"Okay! See you at the old place after noon." Said Mr. Jin happily striding towards the village with a hoe on his shoulder.

In less than two days, the family should be busy, and today I have to play a few rounds with Brother Lu.

Seeing the figure of the old man walking away, the old man also stood up from the ground, let's do it again, he won't come in the next afternoon.

In this way, the old man worked in the field for a long time. Seeing the sun rising higher and higher, he stopped the hoe in his hand and yelled twice at the child who was digging.

Looking at the hoeed field, Mr. Lu was satisfied and walked towards the field with the hoe.

In half a day, the efficiency is not bad. With the cooperation of manpower and oxen, more than ten acres of land have been hoeed. Let the children come back to work for a while in the afternoon, and they can hoe about [-] acres of land every day. It doesn’t take much The day is almost over.

At that time, the corn will be scattered into the ground, and another crop will be harvested in the second half of the year.

Hearing the old man's shout, the big guy walked towards the edge of the field with the tool. Except for the old scalper who was pulling the plow in Qingshan Qingjiang, everyone else was very fast.

After all, they were much younger than the old man, so they quickly caught up with the old man easily, and reached the edge of the land almost no slower than the old man.

Then everyone quickly loaded the wheat stubble that had been transported to the field into the bullock cart one after another. These good things can be used to ignite the fire and should not be wasted.

The wheat straw that looks like a few hills at home is actually a good material for starting a fire, but it is more important than making a fire and selling money. After the busy farming season, these things will be sold to the county. Even if some of them are kept at home, the rest can be sold. some silver.

After a while, everyone packed up everything, put the ox cart on the ox again, and let the old man sit in front of the ox cart.

The back of the bullock cart was full of tall wheat stubble, and all the wheat stubble of dozens of mu of land had been collected, enough for the Lu family to burn for a long time.

In addition, some wheat stalks and corn stalks cleaned up in the second half of the year are left over, and if you prepare some firewood on weekdays, it can be used for almost a year.

After everything was ready, Qingshan was pulling the bullock cart in front, and a group of people followed behind and walked towards the village.

A large area of ​​wheat was about to be harvested, and there were many more people going to the fields than usual. Not only did they meet many acquaintances in the village along the way, they kept saying hello.

Among them, Li Tie, who had a good relationship with Lu Zhongshou, even went to the field without going to the town, and bumped into the Lu family.

He had always had a good relationship with the Lu family, so he walked a few steps away from his own family, and soon caught up with the Lu family.

This Li Tie said hello to the old man first, and also heard the greetings from the younger generation of the Lu family, and then he took two steps forward and got close to Lu Zhongshou.

Habitually, he hugged Lu Zhongshou's shoulder, no matter how much Lu Zhongshou struggled, his hand just didn't come off his shoulder.

Lu Zhongshou glared at him several times in displeasure, but finally let him go.

"Brother Zhongshou, why do you stare at me when we meet?" Li Tie started to yawn knowingly.

Lu Zhongshou didn't bother to pay attention to him, and walked forward on his own.

"Congratulations! The Lu family has a bumper crop this year. I didn't know it when I was in the town, and you are too mean. Every time the family is busy, I don't know."

Li Tie's previous sentence of congratulations was indeed sincere, but the latter sentence, Lu Zhongshou knew with his toes, was just incidental.

However, he finally said something human, Lu Zhongshou still took a straight look at Li Tiedan, and finally opened his mouth.

"What do you call me? It doesn't matter if you are there or not. Besides, what about the teahouse in your town? You can get some money anyway, which is much better than working in the fields."

What he said was obviously afraid of affecting the business of his teahouse, but it made Lu Zhongshou feel that he deserved a beating.

Although Li Tie understood what Lu Zhongshou meant, he still couldn't help but itch his teeth.

"You're looking down on brother, why don't you just delay business for a few days for brother's sake? What's the matter?" Li Tie looked righteous.

Lu Zhongshou curled his lips inwardly, and immediately exposed him, "Okay, why are you pretending in front of me? If I really go to tell you, you don't have to cry with your teacup in your arms."

These words made Li Tie choke, and he had nothing to say.

He really didn't want to delay the business of this teahouse. The family's expenses depended entirely on this teahouse, especially because the two grandsons still had to study, and the little harvest in the field was not enough to support all the family's expenses.

He who has always been thick-skinned in front of Lu Zhongshou laughed, "It's still my brother Zhongshou who understands me. The whole family in my family really dare not slack off for a day."

Then he moved closer and said, "Brother Zhongshou, is my eldest grandson acting mischievous while studying in the academy? Can he keep up with his homework?"

Hearing Li Tie's question about the child, Lu Zhongshou corrected his attitude subconsciously.

"This kid is not bad, and he is willing to work hard and has some talent. Let's work hard and see if he can be admitted to Tongsheng next year."

Hearing this, Li Tie felt relieved. Now there are only two grandchildren in the family studying in the academy in the town.

The little grandson just went to the academy this year, and his studies are not very solid. Li Tie doesn't plan to let the little grandson play, but he still has deep expectations for the big grandson.

If you can't even pass the exam as a child student, how can you talk about being a scholar? There has never been a scholar in their old Li family.

As for the youngest son, he took the exam twice in the past few years, but he failed in the end, and the family has already appointed him.

Now I found a job as a small bookstore shopkeeper in the county, and he did a good job, and the marriage has already been arranged, and it will be in this winter.

Lu Zhongshou turned his head and glanced at Li Tie who was in deep thought, thinking that he was still not at ease. After all, it was a relationship for many years. Lu Zhongshou thought about it and finally said:
"Don't worry, this child has a solid foundation. As long as this child reviews according to the key points I have divided, it is estimated that this child should have no problems."

When Li Tie heard this, he immediately became happy. As expected of his friend for many years, he took the initiative to take the job before he even spoke.

Li Tie said excitedly: "The old man thanked you in advance, we haven't got together for a long time, so come to my house this evening and let your sister-in-law prepare two dishes, and let's have a good drink."

Before Lu Zhongshou could speak, Li Tie hurriedly said, "Don't refuse, it's a deal."

Lu Zhongshou: "..." When is he going to refuse?This Li Tiedan is terribly picky, and after finally buying himself a drink, he will go to whatever he says.

After waiting for Li Tie to finish speaking, Lu Zhongshou glanced at him meaningfully, "Who says I won't go? I mean you have to prepare some good wine, don't fool me with wine mixed with water .”

As if remembering what he did before, Li Tie smiled a little embarrassedly, "Brother Lu, can we stop exposing the old scars from the past?"

Lu Zhongshou looked at the old guy's embarrassment, it was to save face for him, so he didn't say any more.

Unknowingly, everyone came to the village while talking, and the crowd dispersed quickly amidst talking and laughing. After staying in the field for half a day, how could anyone not be tired?They all wanted to go home and take a good rest.
