The next day, Miao He woke up very early. He must have a memory in his heart. He was in high spirits when he heard the cock crowing in the distance. Yang Dalang was earlier than him. When Miao He woke up, there was already a pot of hot water boiled for him to wash.
Miao He also used it politely. I thought to myself that if there is a coming and going, I will give Yang Dalang to eat more of the good vegetables that he grows in the future. The food grown in the soil has many benefits for the body.
But still have to wait. In order to cover the soil, there are many things to do in the early stage. After breakfast, Miao He tied up in the backyard, watching Yang Dalang loosen the soil. His feet were so injured that Yang Dalang could not let him do it, so he moved a low stool. Let Miao He sit aside and watch.
When not hunting, Yang Dalang has a lot of free time. This is because the Yang family has no fields. Because people with foreign surnames moved in, there is an old rule in Miaojia Village since ancient times that if people with foreign surnames want to buy land in Miaojia Village, they have to spend twice as much silver taels, even the wasteland. I am afraid that I want to hold the fields tightly in the hands of the Miao family.
Therefore, although the old Yang family has been here for several generations, because of this rule, they do not particularly want to buy fields to plant. First, you can make a living by hunting skills, not by farming. The second is to think that it is a pity to spend more money than others. It is better to save these and get some good things to improve life.
With the above ideas, the old Yang family has been living a good life. Although all the food expenses except meat have to be exchanged for silver taels, the spend is actually more than that of the villagers. It can be said that the more you earn, the more you spend. However, from the appearance, life does seem to be better than the villagers.
Until Yang Dalang's father's serious accident scared everyone! After all, it is not a common occurrence to encounter two big bugs at a time. It is a fluke to be able to walk back to two after breaking three men at a time.
Since then, the villagers who were always envious of the Yang family realized that going hunting in the mountains was still much more dangerous than farming. Even if life is good, if something happens, it is either death or disability. It is a blink of an eye to change from a small rich to a poor person, and it will drag on for a lifetime. It is too unstable. As a result, it is much more difficult for the Yang family men of Yang Dalang's generation to say kisses than before.
Let's talk about Yang Datong, Yang Dalang's younger brother. The eldest son of Aunt Yang, who had married his mother-in-law and had two sons, also stopped hunting for a living. Aunt Yang was frightened by the accident. When Yang Datong was a child, she was sent to learn woodworking and furniture and farming tools with Li A Gong in the village when Yang Datong was a child. Therefore, the marriage was much earlier than Yang Dalang.
The above are all digressions. It is said that this Yang Dalang loosens the soil quickly and well, and he almost finished the backyard in a short time. Of course, one of them was particularly soft. No, Miao He just dug a hole and filled it up yesterday. Yang Dalang was afraid that he didn't pay special attention to what was going on in the backyard. Until a palladium was pounded, he couldn't help but glance at Miao He with some doubts.
Miao He smiled dryly, "What's wrong? Are you thirsty? I, I'll go get you water!"
As soon as he stood up, he was stopped, "No need. Sit down."
Miao He didn't dare to twist the tiger's whiskers. Quickly opened a new topic to draw attention, "By the way, after loosening the soil, we have to dig another hole outside, and one side is the size of an arm. After digging, pick up some fallen leaves and twigs and bury them in it, and find a wooden board to cover it. After a while, you can get fat."
After Miao He tried his luck in his previous life, he gradually became interested in the family vegetable garden and cooking. The former is to plant the newly acquired seeds better, but unfortunately the space that can be used is in the flowerpot on the balcony, while the latter is because there are such good ingredients at hand, and they want to have a matching technique to eat them. Don't be rude.
The method of simple composting is somewhat dabbling in Miaohe. Living in the city, he couldn't use it because it was too difficult. At most, he tried this kind of fallen leaf compost. The hole dug was replaced by a wooden box, and the taste was not so great. After a round of searching in my head, it seems that there is fertilizer made from animal dung, but there are no fallen leaves. He did this, and he didn't expect it, but wanted to hide his eyes. In the future, the vegetables in his field would be better than others, so he would have an excuse to say.
"The pit has to be so big, and there must be two points of space in the middle, and the wooden cover must not be too angry, otherwise it will not work!" Miao He was serious, "This is my own method, specializing in growing vegetables, do you use vegetables to support vegetables, you? Don't tell anyone else."
Yang Dalang wiped the sweat dripping into his eyes, replied and continued to work hard. Miao He saw that the person's back was wet, and guilt came out again, "It's better to drink some water first, I'm sweating, so I need to add more."
The younger brother's eyes reappeared, and Yang Dalang paused. Although he felt that it was unnecessary, he stopped, obediently went to find water to drink, and also brought a cup to Miao He.
After a short rest, Yang Dalang finished the work of loosening the soil, and Miao He instructed people to plant various vegetable seeds in a row along the edge. What Miao He told Yang Dalang was that this was also his experience. The old ones were planted first, and then the new ones would grow better. Of course, this kind of superstition is just to cover up the mystery.
It was so dangerous that Yang Dalang didn't ask much, and Miao He did what he said. It was only halfway through, but I heard someone calling the door at the door.
"Is anyone there? Brother He?"
Let Miao He stay in the backyard, and Yang Dalang went to answer the door. Not long after, he led a handsome little brother to the backyard. The little brother was tanned, looked dry and thin, the corners of his eyes drooped slightly, and he looked innocent all the time. He followed behind Yang Dalang, walking in a rather restrained manner, and he didn't know whether it was because of fear or what, and he peeked at Yang Dalang without a glance.
When I saw Miao He in the backyard, I quickly walked over, "He, are you alright? I've been worried since I heard that you were injured. But A-Niang won't let me come over, so she finally went to town today. , I slipped over."
Miao He could only smile at people.
This brother's name is Miao Min, and he lives close to Miao He's family. The two are similar in age, and the original body can be considered to have played with him since childhood. It's just that his family's conditions are a bit poor, and he is with Miao He, who is in a good financial situation. Most of the snacks and things are distributed by Miao He. Over time, he has become Miao He's sidekick.
But Miao He didn't know how to evaluate him.
Yuanshen and Miao Min are both brothers, and as they get closer, they naturally hear what Miao Min said. Miao Min also often adorned the original body's ear about matters between him and Miao Yuan. For example, joking when he got a greeting was a hidden concern. He knew that Miao He liked to hear this, so he talked a lot. Having said too much, no matter what happened to Miao Yuan's side, Miao He thought it was an eighth point.
That's okay, after all, personal feelings are a personal burden, and you can't blame others for your own eyes. However, after Miao He was forced by her family to marry into Lao Yang's family, this Miao Min even engaged in the work of threading needles.
Didn't you say that the original body was still entangled with Miao Yuan after marriage? This is the thread that Miao Min leads. That's why he said he would go shopping in the town with Miao He, so that he could help him choose some things for his brother's marriage. But he didn't think that the real purpose was to take the original body to the private school in the town, where Miao Yuan was studying. That day, when Miao He waited until Miao Yuan left school and rushed up to ask people to ask questions, he happened to be seen by the villagers, and the entanglement spread.
So this Miao Min is really good for the original body? Or is it just to seek some benefits from the original body, whether it is right or wrong to please the original body? From Miao He's point of view, there are more of the latter.
But in any case, his current character is Miao Min's best friend. "I just twisted my leg, just take a break. Thank you. Come to me today, is there something wrong?"
Before Miao Min replied, she sneaked a glance at Yang Dalang, who was continuing to work, and whispered, "I have something to say to you, Brother He, otherwise, let's change the place first."
Miao He blinked, feeling that this person was really heartless. The original body ran into the town to entangle Miao Yuan, all of which he helped, but he still dared to hesitate in front of Yang Dalang, mysterious? This doesn't make me suffer from injustice.
"I'm sorry, my legs are not very neat, I can say anything here." Miao He cleared himself.
Miao Min's delicate face was a little surprised, and she quickly shook her head, "It's nothing. Just, I've decided on my marriage, and I want to tell you."
The children in the countryside here are not fashionable to say kisses as early as in the town. This kind of disease, pain, often happens in the countryside. You have to book a marriage early. Who knows if there will be an accident in the future, and you can't change your mind if you want to. With the dowry, it takes time to save. When the age comes to get married, there is plenty of time.
"Really, then congratulations, which man is that?" Miao He asked naturally.
Miao Min pursed her lips shyly, "Yes, it's Brother A Liang from Master Jue's house."
suspect? That is not the second grandson of Miao Jue's third brother, but also Miao Yuan's cousin! They all still live with Miao Jue and the others, and there is no separation, but the family is farming, and it is because there are a bunch of brothers who help farmers, so they donated to Miao Jue to continue to study and test for fame.
And this family, to be known by the original body, I don't know how to feel? Miao Liang used to follow Miao Yuan's side, but the original body didn't know when the two got better. Now the best friend has a lover and is married, but the original body is not human, and I don't know how sour.
Miao Min didn't seem to be concerned about this, and continued shyly, "I thought I really had to marry to the Wangjia Village next door. I'm a brother, my family is poor, and Dad wants so many betrothal gifts, no one cares at all. Yes. Who knows, who knows that Brother A Liang really went to beg his father, and was beaten, so that's what happened."
Miao He thought about the character, and smiled weakly. "It's not very good. I'll definitely go for the drinks."
"En! You must come! Also, when you get married and set up a drink, Brother Yuan will also be there." Miao Min said the last sentence in a very low voice.
Miao He has a black line in his heart. Is this Miao Min the CP fan of Yuan Shi and Miao Yuan? She is also an absolute black fan, so insisting on letting Miao He get out of the wall, why is she so enthusiastic.
Miao He returned dryly, "So what? Dalang went with him."
Miao Min glanced at Yang Dalang not far away, "It's fine. I'll look for opportunities for you."
Miao He rolled his eyes in his heart. "Let's talk about it." He simply stood up, meaning it was time to see off the guest!
Seeing Miao He's movement, Yang Dalang in the vegetable field wiped his sweat and walked over to ask, "Where are you going?"
Miao He shook his head, "Help me deliver Brother Min, I won't move."
"En," Yang Dalang turned around and waited for Miao Min.
Miao Min was a little stunned. He came here on purpose to tell He Ge'er about this opportunity. He thought that people would be happy, but when he was happy, he might have some rags. He also wanted to sew a new purse for A Liang. Brother.
But he didn't expect that He Ge'er's reaction was so cold. He looked at Miao He suspiciously, and Miao He was afraid to talk too much, so he put on a blank expression, only then did Miao Min blink and consciously understood.
Yes, when Brother He heard about his marriage, he was afraid that he would think of himself and feel sad.
Think about it, in all conditions, Brother He is worse than himself, the family conditions are good, and the appearance is also top-notch, but he is not able to be with the favorite brother A Yuan, and in the end, he is not as good as himself, which is really pitiful.
Inadvertently tasted a sense of superiority that he had never felt before, Miao Min didn't really realize it, only thought that he should come to comfort He Ge'er more in the future, so he said, "Then He Ge'er, I'm leaving, another day. Come see you again."
Miao He shook his hand and let out a sigh of relief after seeing him off.
