Wang Yun woke up Brother Cong and Sister Cong, and Wang Ge told his father to close the courtyard door while the two sisters went to find Zhang Cai.

Zhang Cai waited for a long time and jumped out without waiting for a shout. "Quick, put the kettle here."

"No need, it's very light."

Zhang's household had a shed and a stove on the farmland, and there was no need to deliver food, so Zhang's vegetable basket was very empty, except for his own lunch. He said, "Then I will carry the tiger's head."

"Brother, I'll go by myself first. When I get tired, I'll ask you to carry me." Wang Yun's childish voice and serious look were very endearing.

Zhang Cai is one year older than Wang Ge, and also wears a two-horned bun. The nimble young man doesn’t know who he learned from, and he walks on tiptoe.

"Walk well!" Wang Ge told him.

"Look how fierce you are!" Zhang Cai refused to admit defeat, but her feet obeyed and restrained.

After passing through the west of the village and walking westward for half an hour, the green wild mountains gradually became clearer in sight, and the stream that looked like a light green ribbon was also visible.

The three of them turned south at the fork in the road. At this time, Zhang Cai picked up Ah Xing on his back. Two-quarters of an hour later, they arrived at the bottom of a slope. Zhang Cai was too tired to say anything, and nodded his head towards Wang Gehuang.

Leave food and water behind, tell your brother not to run around, and then go uphill.

Most of the reclaimed land on this slope is thin farmland, and some areas are still barren and covered with thorns and weeds.

The eldest parents have been working hard and only took a break when they saw her coming to deliver food.

After the meals were distributed, the second uncle and the third uncle sat with the elder parents and chatted about home-cooked things while eating. The aunts stayed with the children.

Even though she couldn't stop her third aunt's mouth, Yao said angrily: "We are also girls, but A Shu is not so lucky. She is three years younger than A Ge, so she has to farm with us. Look at A Shu."

That back, tsk tsk... how straight! Look at A Shu again! Alas!"

Wang Shu saw that others were staring at his back, which annoyed his third aunt to death. He had just rested from working all morning, who didn't have a hunched back?

Wang Ge said: "Third aunt is kind-hearted. Yesterday she felt sorry for Ah He, and today she feels sorry for Ah Shu, but she never feels sorry for her own A Zhu."

Wang Zhu, who was lying on the gun, was stunned. Even though he knew that his sister was provoking him, he still couldn't restrain his grievance.

Mrs. Yao was angry: "What are you talking about?" She took her eldest son in her arms and coaxed: "Don't listen to her nonsense. My mother loves you the most. How can my mother not love you?"

Little Jia was disgusted with Di's wife, and even more disgusted with Wang Ge! Compared with her niece, A Shu really shrunk her shoulders and slumped back, like a wilting rice plant! So she followed up Di's words and sarcastically said: "Those who eat and drink for free,

Of course he is handsome. Ah Ge, it’s not what your aunts say about you. If you really have the leisure time and energy to squeeze out your younger brothers and sisters, why not save your energy to plant two acres of land so that your younger brothers and sisters can also be light and lively."

"Second aunt is right. Second aunt and I want to go together." Wang Ge looked at little Jia and said, "Why don't we let Ahe stay at home to work from tomorrow, and I will farm the land."

Wang He said while eating: "Wang Ge, I didn't recruit you! Also, my mother and my aunt, please don't hurt me by fighting with her." After saying that, he walked to his eldest parents.

What a disgrace! Little Jia cursed secretly.

Wang Ge: "Then A Shu and I will switch?"

Wang Shu, who had just straightened his back, shook his head vigorously.

Little Jia hated him for not fighting: "Just change..."

Wang Shu was frightened and cried: "I won't change, I won't change! Sister Cong has to do a lot of work, even just carrying water has to be carried until midnight, I won't change, ugh..."

Over there, Mr. Yao was about to speak. Wang Zhu stood up abruptly and said, "I won't change either." He walked to his eldest parents and sat down next to his brother Wang He.

Wang Shu... was heartbroken and burst into tears.

Wang Erlang had already noticed this and shouted: "Age, it's getting late, go back quickly."

"Yes." She put all the food boxes and empty water bottles into the basket, and said goodbye to her eldest parents, second uncle, and third uncle one by one.

The honest Wang Shu admitted the truth. As soon as Sister Cong left, she threw herself into Wang Erlang's arms and begged: "Father, I won't follow Sister Cong. I want to farm with you. Oh... I don't want to go to the well in the middle of the night."

I'm afraid of fetching water! I can't cook, and I can't chop firewood, ugh..."

Wang Erlang laughed "haha": "I won't change, I won't change. My family A Shu is doing well in farming. As long as you don't feel tired, you can always farm with my father!"

"Yeah, yeah, yeah!" Wang Shu breathed a sigh of relief.

Wang Erlang glared hard at the troublemaking bride, which made little Jia shrink her shoulders and slump in fear.

Wang He was watching this scene and said cheerfully: "A Shu's back is not from those who farmed the land and camels, it is clearly passed down from my mother!"

The words were divided into two parts. Wang Ge heard several inhuman screams from behind, and his steps became more brisk. After meeting up with Adi and Zhang Cai, the three of them had lunch talking and laughing, and then walked towards the river.

The sound of gurgling water is nestled against the wild mountains with beautiful pines and cypresses.

Many women and little girls took advantage of the warm weather to wash clothes by the river beach. Most of them were tenants of landlord Jia's family.

It should be mentioned that in the Jin Dynasty, small and poor families like Landlord Jia who did not have official status were not included in the "yinke system". To put it in layman's terms, tenants who worked for common people from poor families were all registered in the official household registration

Here, they only sell their labor but not their freedom. This is because there is little labor in the family, so they are dependent on the landlord.

A tenant farmer usually only cultivates a few to a dozen acres of land and pays land rent to the landlord. If the tenant has strong laborers, he still has to perform hard labor every year. The only advantage is that he does not need to cultivate the minimum acres of wasteland stipulated by the government.

.

The laughter and laughter of women filled the green mountains and green waters, and a small boat just broke through the scales and went downstream.

The person shaking the boat on the boat is not confused in his old age; the fisherman holding the net is not as good as the weakest person.

The fisherman sang to the shore: "On the other side of the lake, there are cattails and lotuses. There is a beautiful person, how can I be so hurt? I sleep so hard and do nothing, my tears are pouring down."

The women laughed and cursed, and threw stones at the fishermen. The fish flew away with splashes of water, and the man shaking the boat laughed with his son.

A shrewd woman stood up and shouted: "Have the guts to come over with the boat!"

"Yes, come over with the boat~" several women shouted together.

At this time, a young lady stood up, her cheeks were red with shame, but her voice was loud and clear, and she sang: "There are fusu in the mountains, and lotus flowers in the sky. If you don't see the capital, you can see the madness. There are bridges and pines in the mountains, and there are dragons in the sky.

If you don’t see Zi Chong, you will see a cunning boy.”

This time it was the fisherman's turn to be embarrassed. His father smiled even more heartily, drove the boat closer to the shore, and threw a big fish at the little lady.

Suddenly, all the girls screamed and booed.

Wang Ge and the others also laughed. It is said that many, many years ago, a traveling nobleman came to Jiashe Village and taught the villagers many songs from the Book of Songs. Unfortunately, the villagers only learned the simplest ones.

Zhang Cai took off her shoes, and as soon as her feet touched the water, she immediately jumped up and down, and she grinned when she was hit by the stones. As expected, she was very playful and went to catch small fish by herself.

Wang Ge held Ah Yin's hand with her right hand and rushed towards an eye-catching red stone, but after washing it with water, she found that it was not interesting. She threw it towards Zhang Cai and reminded: "Don't go in there!"

"Know."

"Sister, look, that's the gentleman we met at Shoushipo yesterday." Wang Yun reminded a group of travelers riding horses from a distance.

Wang Ge had to sigh, the little guy's eyesight was extraordinary! Only when the cavalry team got closer could she see clearly that it was indeed the elegant scholar who admired the longevity stone yesterday.
