Man Bao studied hard, read the new text back and forth four or five times, and went through Bai Shanbao's notes twice before closing his eyes and reciting silently.
When the morning class was over, Man Bao breathed a sigh of relief when Mr. Zhuang walked into the classroom with a book in his hand, then turned his head and smiled at Bai Shanbao.
Mr. Zhuang saw it on the top, and glanced at the things on the desks of the two children. After the whole class, he didn't order his two favorite students to answer the questions.
This made the backs of the students sitting behind Man Bao and the others tense, and they were almost drenched in cold sweat after a class.
I always feel that today's husband's question is super difficult, and it seems to be aimed at them.
Could it be because they have been mischievous recently
The classmates behind them are doubting themselves, while the ambitious Bai Shanbao and Man Bao are gradually getting a little disappointed.
Especially Man Bao, she worked hard to preview the whole morning class and was ready to answer a lot of questions, but the husband didn't ask any questions, so disappointed.
Man Bao didn't look at the backstage of the system after school at noon, and Keke didn't make any more noise. She endured it until after school in the afternoon before letting her consciousness enter the backstage of the system to see the situation.
Only then did Keke come out, "There is an order."
It sorted the orders and listed them for Manbao, and the first one was actually cabbage worms.
Man Bao was stunned, "Why do they like bugs?"
"Looking at the comments on the forum, I am glad that there is a gene in the cabbage caterpillar. After changing it, it can become a good feed for carnivores."
"Do you feed the chickens? Chickens like to eat bugs."
"No, it's more about feeding bicorns. Its meat is good and more delicious than chickens, but it is a carnivore and has a picky mouth."
As soon as Manbao was mentioned, he became energetic, and quickly asked: "What does it look like, do we have it here, can I raise it?"
There are pictures of bicorns in the encyclopedia, and there are even videos. Keke searched for a section to show her.
Man Bao looked at the bicorn, which was bigger than a cow and had never seen it before, and couldn't help blinking, "Feed it cabbage worms, how many worms do you need to raise?"
Their chickens are so small that they can eat bugs.
Ke Ke said: "So they need to study. I heard that some researches can grow cabbage worms as big as a child's arm, and this kind of worm is easy to raise. It seems that the meat quality is also good, so bicorns like it very much."
Man Bao shuddered, feeling goosebumps crawling all over her arms, she quickly said: "Okay, I will catch them, Keke, don't talk about it."
Keke just laughed, "Do you still want to raise bicorns?"
Man Bao resolutely said "no", then exited the system, put away the books on the desk, refused Bai Shanbao's invitation to do homework together, and was about to go home with the bookcase on his back.
Bai Shanbao felt that Manbao was acting weird these two days, so he hurriedly carried the bookcase on his back and chased after her, "I saw you shaking just now, are you sick?"
Man Bao shook his head.
Bai Shanbao was a little anxious, "You have to tell me if you don't feel well, it will be bad if a minor illness becomes a serious one."
Man Bao sighed and said, "It's not that I'm sick, it's that I have goosebumps."
She tugged her sleeve to show him her arm.
Bai Shanbao took a look, but didn't see any difference, so he rolled up his sleeves and put them in Man Bao's hand for comparison.
Comparing the two children, there seems to be no difference, except that Bai Shanbao's arms are thicker and stronger.
But now Bai Shanbao was sure that Man Bao was not sick, so he asked again: "Are you really not going to my house to do homework?"
Man Bao shook his head, "I have something to talk to Datou and the others."
"Then you go to the big head first, and then come to my house after talking," Bai Shanbao said, "It will be faster to do homework with you."
Man Bao thinks so too. Two people can write homework faster, and if they make mistakes, they can be checked by someone.
Man Bao nodded, "Then you go back first, I'll find you later."
The two separated at the intersection.
Before Man Bao ran back to Zhou's house, he found Datou and the others by the river not far from Zhou's house. They were beating numbness with wooden sticks, and Little Qian was beside them.
Man Bao rushed over and shouted: "Sister-in-law, I want Datou and the others to help me with work."
Little Qian didn't ask what was the matter, and waved to Big Head and the others: "Go, don't mess around, go home early."
Datou and the others happily responded, and happily ran away with Man Bao.
Little Qian took over all the work of beating hemp. The children who were working by the river all looked at the big head and the others with envy, while the women looked at Little Qian enviously, "Master Zhou, your family Has the hemp been taken back?"
Xiaoqian smiled and said, "How can it be so fast, this year we planted a little more, and it takes two or three days to harvest."
"It looks like it's going to rain. Many people in the village haven't harvested their wheat yet."
"Yeah, the old Zhou's family is the first one to be collected. It's better if there are more people."
Xiaoqian said with a smile: "The more people eat, the more we eat. There are about twenty people in our family. We will add another one this year, and we will add another one next year. Even if we only cook porridge a day, it will cost seventy dollars more than other families." Eight times as much rice."
"You can see that my wheat is harvested in a few days. I don't know how much my family hopes to harvest a few more days. The fast harvest means that there is not much. This year is really unlucky. I don't know if the rice harvest in autumn will be better. .” Little Qian’s face was full of worry.
That's true, Lao Zhou also cries poor all day long, Lao Zhou has a lot of family members, so he eats more.
"But it's much better than a family with fewer people. With a large family, if one or two people are sick, they can take care of it. Like the eldest of your family, he hurt his stomach last time and can't do heavy work, but there are still Tuesdays and Wednesdays. How many brothers are there, look at Zhou Hu's family, how good life was in the past, but now his mother-in-law is lying on the bed and can't move, and he is the only one to rely on inside and outside, without even a helper."
"Yeah, yeah, I almost couldn't recognize him when I saw him in the morning."
"By the way, everyone Zhou, I saw your boss go to harvest wheat with Zhou Hu today. Didn't he go to work at Master Bai's house?"
"He has a stomach injury," Xiaoqian said with a tight smile, "My father-in-law didn't dare to let him do heavy work, for fear that the wound in his stomach would be ruptured, so he didn't go. It can’t be done, but it’s okay to cut wheat and beans, the boss and his brothers have a good relationship with Zhou Hu, and they are still fellow villagers, it’s just a matter of helping hands.”
Everyone is even more envious.
Looking at Xiaoqian's numbness again, they couldn't help speeding up.
Harvesting hemp is a very troublesome thing, at least in terms of the farm work Man Bao has participated in, what she hates the most is harvesting hemp.
So are they.
As soon as they were out of the sight of the adults, they stretched out their hands to show Man Bao their scarred hands, saying: "They are all peeled and peeled, and they will always be cut, so grandma asked us to come to the river to beat the hemp, but the hemp is beaten Also very tired."
