Chapter 65 Picking Hawthorn

When Zhong Xixi got home, it was already dark.

In front of the door, sat a little head.

"Sister, you are finally back!"

Seeing Zhong Xixi, Zhong Mumu rushed over immediately.

"Are you hungry?"

"Sister, I'm not an idiot, how can I think of you because I'm hungry. However, I have done a lot of work today, so I am indeed a little hungry.

We picked the herbs for you, and I also exchanged the pigweed for work points. "

Zhong Xixi raised her eyebrows slightly after hearing this, ouch, not bad!

I poured out all the herbs and took a look after spreading them out. There was not a single weed mixed in.

"You have a good memory, and you are serious about your work. You are right, that's great!"

"That's right, sister, I asked them to pick three bundles of pigweed, and I gave one candy. Today we handed over 21 bundles of pigweed. I told them that I gave them a candy for three bundles of pigweed. They have nine candies! Now there is one left, sister, for you to eat."

Zhong Mumu took out the shiny piece of candy from his pocket, peeled off the sugar coating and put it in Zhong Xixi's mouth.

Zhong Xixi felt the sweetness in his heart, but soon realized something was wrong, and raised his eyebrows slightly.

"Wait, you said that 21 bundles of pigweed gave someone else nine candies?"

"Well, yes, there are still ten candies left."

Zhong Mumu raised her head proudly, feeling that she was too powerful.

Zhong Xixi, "..."

Sure enough, why is the nine-year compulsory education so important.

"21 bales of grass, if you get one candy for three bundles, then you should give seven candies, and you still have three candies left. Now you only have one left, and you are quite proud."

Zhong Xixi touched Zhong Mumu's forehead, feeling a little helpless.

"Impossible, sister, you lied to me!"

Zhong Mumu didn't believe it, so he took a small wooden stick and gesticulated in the field.

One horizontal line, two horizontal lines...

Zhong Xixi sighed, "Come on, my sister will teach you how to count. If you can't break your fingers, then draw them."

Zhong Xixi used a small wooden stick to draw a matchstick, and marked numbers on the bottom, teaching his younger brother to know numbers by the way.

After teaching for a while, Zhong Mumu understood it, and looked at Zhong Xixi with eyes full of admiration.

"Sister, you are too good. I heard people say that only those sent-down youths and cadres can count. Because they have studied a lot. Sister, you are so smart. You can understand without studying. You are better than them!"

Zhong Xixi was suddenly at a loss for words, so he could only use this to change the subject.

"Mumu, do you want to study? Like those educated youths, if you finish your studies, you will be able to leave our small village in the future. The outside is much bigger than the village. There are many interesting things and delicious things. Like the things I usually give you, there are many outside."

Zhong Xixi described the world outside the village vividly to Zhong Mumu.

Zhong Mumu was fascinated by what he heard, with a longing look on his face.

"Sister, then I walked out of the village, and you, will you go out with me?"

"I, of course, will go out with you. My sister has always had this idea. When my sister makes money, she will go out and make her business stronger. When the time comes, you will go to school and come back to help my sister, okay?"

"Sister, I want to go, I want to help my sister, but do we have enough money? The village party secretary said before that if you go to school, you need to pay for books, and you have to mention rice to go to school."

A gleam of happiness flashed across Zhong Mumu's face, but he quickly asked cautiously.

"It's not your business to worry about money. As long as you want to go, my sister will pay for your college education even if she sells everything."

Of course, according to her current business, there is no need to sell everything.

But this little guy doesn't know that it's not easy for him, what if he doesn't study hard?
"Woooooh, sister, you are really kind... I used to think that it was enough to have enough food, but now I feel that I am too greedy. You said you want me to go to school, and I really want to go."

Zhong Mumu's eyes were red, and tears fell down like she didn't want money.

Zhong Xixi, "..."

again? ?
"Okay, don't cry, sister is going to arrange for you to go to school, you go to eat first, and tomorrow, I will help you go up to the mountain to pick hawthorns, do you know if there are any?"

"Well, listen to my sister!"

Zhong Mumu sniffed, and suppressed the tears that came out of her eyes again.

Zhong Xixi took out the eggplant and bitter gourd, washed them and cut them into sections, and hollowed out the heart in the middle.

Immediately afterwards, the meat brought back from the town was chopped up, mixed with chopped green onion and other condiments, and stuffed into the eggplant and bitter gourd.

Pour some oil into the pan, and Zhong Xixi put the eggplant stuffed meat and bitter gourd stuffed meat into the pot piece by piece with chopsticks, frying until golden on both sides.

The scent wafted out immediately.

After finishing dinner, Zhong Xixi hurried out again, she was going to implement one thing! !

The lights of the village secretary's house were still on, and the people who went to his house these days almost broke the threshold of his house.

Zhong Xixi knocked on the door.

Niu Wu, who was in a daze, regained his composure, "Here we come!"

"Uncle Niu, you have worked hard recently, I brought you some dishes that are not on fire, you can try it."

As soon as Zhong Xixi saw the village party secretary, he took out the bitter gourd stuffed meat that he made himself, and the aroma was overflowing.

The village party secretary looked at the meat on the plate, a little shocked.

It wasn't long before Miss Zhong went out alone, and she actually ate meat directly?
However, at his age, it's not easy for him to grab meat from the children.

"Miss Zhong, keep it for yourself, you and your brother finally got some meat, just keep it for yourself!"

"Uncle Niu helped me so much before, I have nothing to thank you for, it's just a dish, just accept it, Uncle Niu!"

Zhong Xixi blinked, put the dishes on the table with a smile, and then said straight to the point.

"Is Uncle Niu worried about the bugs growing in the ground?".

Niu Wu's originally loose heart tightened again, and he let out a long sigh.

"Hey, isn't it? This villager has come to find me several times. I have already reported to the higher authorities, but there is no confirmation during this time."

Their village doesn't have any connections in the Agricultural Institute. Even if it can be approved, the number will not be too much. How to divide it is still a problem.

"Uncle Niu, if I say that I can help you solve this trouble, do you believe it?"

Zhong Xixi raised her eyebrows, blinked her eyes, her eyes were innocent
After hearing this, Niu Wu was taken aback, and then he said excitedly, "What, Miss Zhong, can you get these things? Let me tell you, I'm in a hurry to get angry now, this matter can't be joked!"

However, the look in Zhong Xixi's eyes revealed a sense of distrust.

Zhong Xixi knew it when he came, and now he is a pitiful little boy in Niu Wu's eyes, and the matter of obtaining chemical fertilizers and pesticides is simply a fantasy.

However, since she can come, she must be confident.

Zhong Xixi's eyes sparkled a little.

"Uncle Niu, I dare not guarantee it, but there is still an 80.00% possibility. However, if I can get pesticides and fertilizers, I have a condition to say!"
