This question is simpler, Zeng Xiaoniu answered without thinking: "Of course it rises from the east and falls from the west."

Zhang Yang looked up at the bright moon and said calmly, "Since the sun and moon both rise from the east and set from the west, do you know why they are like this?"

Of course, Zeng Xiaoniu didn't know, he just thought that the sun rises and sets during the day and the moon rises and sets at night is really normal, so he honestly said, "I don't know."

Zhang Yang thought for a while, got up and plucked a piece of soil from under the poplar tree and rolled it into a ball, then inserted two thin wooden branches on the same straight line, and then pressed the two thin wooden branches with his middle finger and thumb , handed it to Zeng Xiaoniu and said, "Now imagine that I am the sun and you are the moon." Then he made a light mark in the middle of one side of the mud with his fingernails, and said, "This pinch is where we stand. Then The ball of mud is turned on a thin wooden branch.

The mud ball turned in a circle, and the pinch mouth turned from Zhang Yang's left to the right.Turn to Zeng Xiaoniu, still from left to right.

Zhang Yang turned the mud ball two more times and asked, "Don't be afraid, do you understand?"

Zeng Xiaoniu was a little puzzled and stared at the mud ball intently.

Chapter 861 What a surprise

Zhang Yang shook his head to stop the rotation of the mud ball, and said: "The sun and the moon are definitely not in the same sky. They have existed for so many years and have not changed, and they probably won't move. Therefore, like this mud ball, only our feet are under our feet. The earth moves and turns, and the sun and moon rise and set every day as usual."

Zeng Xiaoniu was shocked by this sentence and was speechless. He lowered his head and took two steps back to look at the place where he was standing just now. Does the ground move?"

Zhang Yang knew what kind of surprise his words would bring to his eldest disciple, so he raised his eyebrows and said, "Only by moving can there be vitality."

Zeng Xiaoniu closed his eyes and connected himself, Zhang Yang, the mud ball with the sun, the moon, and the earth in his mind, and slowly felt that if the earth under his feet really turned like a mud ball, then the sun would rise and set every day. It makes more sense for the moon to rise and the moon to set.It's just that this idea is too bizarre, and Zeng Xiaoniu has never thought about the mystery of the rising and setting of the sun or the moon, and just takes it for granted that they should be like this.

So Zeng Xiaoniu was very shocked, as if he saw a door opened in front of him, and there was a new world outside the door.

The next morning, Zhang Yang and Zeng Dazhuang's family were having breakfast when a voice called Zeng Dazhuang came from the yard.Zeng Dazhuang put down his chopsticks and went out for a while and came back, He Xiaolian asked curiously, "Who is it?"

Zeng Dazhuang picked up the chopsticks and the bowl and said, "Uncle Liang. Ask a little thing."

"Uncle Liang" is the head of the village. He usually takes care of some villagers' quarrels, and the family doesn't get along with these trivial matters. He is considered to be a very good old man, so what I want to ask is only trivial matters.When Zhang Yang and Zeng Dazhuang came back yesterday, they thought that the old buckets and scoops stained with dirt would not be easy to bring home, so they put them elsewhere.Therefore, He Xiaolian didn't know what they did yesterday and what the consequences would be, but she stopped talking after saying "oh".

Zhang Yang on the side knew that it was probably because Zeng Erxiong told the story yesterday that someone would come to the door. After all, the people in the village lived on the food grown in the fields, and I heard that Zeng Dazhuang could make The output of grain is higher, and someone will definitely come to the door.

Everyone continued to eat quietly, and before Zeng Dazhuang finished the remaining half bowl of rice, another shout came from the yard, still calling Zeng Dazhuang.He Xiaolian glanced at Zeng Dazhuang suspiciously, Zeng Dazhuang laughed twice, then put down his chopsticks and walked out.

As soon as Zeng Dazhuang left, He Xiaolian immediately turned her head and asked Zhang Yang, "Xiao An, you mysteriously took a bucket and scoop out yesterday, and you didn't get it back at night, so what did you do?"

Zhang Yang was eating, but unexpectedly He Xiaolian was able to guess the cause so accurately, so he chewed the food in his mouth, pointed to the outside and said, "Will you know if you go out and take a look?"

He Xiaolian heard the words and put down the chopsticks in her hand, got up and walked outside, saying as she walked, "Just take a look."

Twisting her chubby body, He Xiaolian came out of the kitchen, walked through the main room to the yard, and was surprised to find that the yard was full of people.

He squeezed to Zeng Dazhuang, who was talking with others in the crowd, tugged at Zeng Dazhuang, looked at the people around him and asked, "Why did they all come to our house?"

Zeng Dazhuang turned his head and saw that it was He Xiaolian, and said in a low voice, "I'll tell you later." Then he shouted loudly, "Everyone, be quiet, be quiet." When the villagers were quiet, he said loudly: "I just I have already said that, I just use the manure water from the thatched hut by the road to irrigate the fields, and there is really nothing else. I have just said the reason, and you can understand it by looking at the growth of the thatch around the hut. I have said everything I know, I really don’t know if it’s useful. If you think it makes sense, you can go back and try it yourself.”

As soon as the words fell, the villagers began to discuss at a high speed.No matter how much we discussed it, there was no result. Zeng Dazhuang had made his words very clear. If he believed it, he would try it, and if he didn't believe it, he would fall.So at the end of the discussion, there are believers and unbelievers.But believe it or not, each family always has its own work to do.So people left one after another and went back to try or do other work, and the yard gradually became clean.

Seeing that everyone was gone, He Xiaolian grabbed Zeng Dazhuang and asked, "What's going on here?"

Zeng Dazhuang said blankly, "What's going on?"

He Xiaolian patted Zeng Dazhuang on the arm and said angrily, "Give me the pretense! People from the village all came to our house and asked for ways to make the grain more productive. Say, does it have something to do with what you did yesterday? "

Zeng Dazhuang rubbed the area that He Xiaolian had photographed, and said with a shriveled mouth: "Zhang Yang told me. He said that when the crops grow to this point, they will fertilize the fields again, that is, manure water."

Then he repeated the principle that dung water can supplement nutrients for crops, and said: "Think about it, Zhang Yang has obviously never been in the field, how does he know these principles of farming? It can only be their kind of farm, tell this truth. Besides, manure doesn't cost money. If it's useless, it's just an old bucket and an old scoop. If it's useful, we can produce more millet, and our family will be able to live more well. "

He Xiaolian believed most of them after hearing Zeng Dazhuang's analysis.He Xiaolian immediately laughed when she heard that it might be possible to produce more millet seeds this year.He touched the place on Zeng Dazhuang's arm that he had just photographed, and said with a smile: "You didn't say it earlier, it can make our family's millet more productive, not to mention the old bucket and the old scoop, even if it is a new bucket and a new scoop. It's worth it."

Zeng Dazhuang saw that He Xiaolian had a different attitude in front of him, shook his head and sighed: "As the old saying goes, you women have long hair and short knowledge." After saying this, seeing He Xiaolian showing signs of anger again, he shook his hand and walked quickly to the kitchen. , said on his mouth: "I haven't finished my meal yet, it will be cold for a while. Let's go, let's eat."

Seeing the figure of Zeng Dazhuang who had walked into the main room, He Xiaolian's angry face suddenly disappeared without a trace, looking at the empty yard full of people just now, a slight smile appeared on the corner of her mouth.I thought, life is finally going to get better.

……

In the kitchen, Zhang Yang was talking to Zeng Xiaoniu.

"Don't be afraid. Yesterday, only the two of us knew about the fact that your father and I irrigated the fields with dung water, but it was seen by Uncle Erxiong who came later. Even so, only the three of us knew about it, but today the whole village is Got it. So you remember, if there is a secret that other people know, it is no longer a secret. Moreover, no matter what kind of secret, it will be known one day." Zhang Yang listened to the noise from outside the yard, if thoughtful.

Chapter 862

Zeng Xiaoniu has long been accustomed to Zhang Yang to teach himself some truths based on the little things happening around him. He nodded when he heard the words, and then thought about it and asked, "What should I do if I have a secret that I don't want others to know?"

Zhang Yang smiled, touched Zeng Xiaoniu's slightly stubble front forehead, and said, "Then hide that secret in your heart, and never let anyone else know."

As soon as he finished speaking, Zeng Dazhuang walked in, and when he saw Zhang Yang, he hesitated, as if he had something to say.

Zhang Yang saw Zeng Dazhuang's dark and simple face full of tangled expressions, some wanted to laugh, but he was afraid that he would really laugh, so he said, "Do you have anything to say, Uncle Dazhuang, just say it."

Zeng Dazhuang laughed a few times, walked over to Zhang Yang, pulled Zeng Xiaobei aside, rubbed his hands and said, "That, Xiao An, is the method of irrigation with dung water that you said really effective?"

Zhang Yang looked at Zeng Dazhuang's face worrying about gains and losses, and then thought about the firm look on Zeng Dazhuang's face when he decided to do it, he couldn't help feeling that the three of them became tigers.

It's just that the matter was caused by oneself, so there was no reason to let it go, so he comforted: "Uncle Da Zhuang is at ease, as long as he refills it every ten days or so, after a month, you can see whether it is useful or not. "

Zeng Dazhuang calmed down when he heard the words, nodded and sat down beside He Xiaolian, muttering in a low voice.

He Xiaolian just felt that when Zeng Dazhuang rarely had a long face, he didn't want to behave like this again, so he was very displeased.The two eyebrows on the fat face that were vaguely visible back then were tightly packed together. He turned his head and complained about Zeng Dazhuang, looked at Zhang Yang, his angry face turned into a smile, and said, "Xiao An, how has Xiao Niu studied these two days? Is there anything wrong? Obedient? If you don't obey, beat him up, this kid's urinating hard."

Zhang Yang looked at Zeng Xiaoniu, who was sitting and eating honestly, and smiled: "Xiao Niu is very obedient, Aunt Xiaolian can rest assured. When Aunt Xiaolian wants to go back to her parents' house, just take him there."

He Xiaolian was overjoyed and turned back to Zeng Dazhuang and said, "Look at people who come from big places to be smart and general, and you can't afford anything like you. Fortunately, Xiao Niu followed Xiao An to learn how to read and be a human being, otherwise, you can be as good as you. It's over."

Zeng Dazhuang didn't talk to him when he heard the words, he just smiled naively.
