Chapter 124

"Soldier bang..." There was a loud noise, the sound of the front hall door being knocked open, Lu Yumin, who was taking a nap, jumped up in fright, followed by Li Sanlin's roar!

"Look if I don't clean up you two today, I dare to go to school and skip classes. I'll break your legs and see where you go to play!"

"Daddy, Daddy, don't hit me, we won't dare again!" Niu Niu panicked and cried.

"Third Uncle, we were wrong!" Hu Zi's voice was also trembling.

"Kneel down! Facing the ancestral tablet, ask your conscience and see who you are worthy of!" Li Sanlin roared again.

"Plop, plop" two kneeling voices.

Lu Yumin dragged his shoes to the front hall, and saw Niuniu and Huzi kneeling in front of the altar, and Li Sanlin was whipping their buttocks with a bamboo stick.

Niu Niu screamed in pain, and when he saw Lu Yumin coming, he seemed to see a savior: "Mother, mother, save me!"

Huzi is more than a year older, he is already a ten-year-old child, he probably really understands his mistakes, and he is crying softly with his head down!
Lu Yumin took Li Sanlin's hand and said, "Sir, don't hit me! The child knows he made a mistake, so give him a chance to correct it?"

Seeing the gentle daughter-in-law with a big dark face, Li Sanlin had to stop the whipping action in his hands and said angrily: "Daughter-in-law, don't persuade me, this child is really disobedient, he dared to play truant in the river , spend so much money for him to go to school, he still doesn't know how to stay!"

Lu Yumin pulled him to sit on the chair: "Sister, don't get mad at yourself. I'll ask later, if they are really disobedient, then I won't stop you, you teach them a lesson! We don’t like children who listen to persuasion and don’t listen to teaching, and if we don’t correct their mistakes in the future, we will drive them outside to beg for food!”

After hearing Lu Yumin's words, Li Sanlin said to Niu Niu and Hu Zi: "Tell yourself whether you are right or wrong today! Is this beating wrong?"

Lu Yumin patted Li Sanlin's hand again and again, and said to Niu Niu and Hu Zi on the ground: "Niu Er, Hu Zi, you two should talk about the matter carefully. What is the purpose of this matter today? Niu Er, tell me first. Huzi will add more!"

Niu Niu looked at his mother with a gentle and stern face, and shed tears: "Mom, Brother Huzi and I and a few friends played truant! We didn't go to school today, but went to the riverside Playing with water!"

Lu Yumin asked him, "Why did you play truant? Is it Niuniu who doesn't want to go to school?"

Niu Niu paused: "Mom, going to school is really boring!"

"Oh? Going to school is boring? Why?" Lu Yumin asked in surprise.

"Mother, what the old gentleman taught is meaningless! After teaching us how to recognize and write, he told us to write and write!" Niu Niu complained with a dissatisfied expression on his face.

"Third Aunt, and shaking your head and reading, reading and reciting! It's really not fun at all, we all want to sleep sitting there!" Huzi added hastily.

After listening to them, Lu Yumin asked them to stand up before saying: "But reading is like this, reading and memorizing, so that you can remember the things in the book!"

Huzi asked puzzledly: "Aunt San, what's the use of reading like this? It's useless even if you get admitted to a scholar? It can't be eaten!"

Niu Niu said aggrievedly: "Mother, what the teacher taught is completely different from what you taught! I like to learn what my mother taught, and I remembered it as soon as I read it. But I remembered what the teacher taught at the time. The next day I I don’t remember it again!”

Lu Yumin sighed secretly: "Niu Niu, what my mother teaches can only recognize a few words, but what my husband teaches can improve skills, that's different. Don't you want to take the examination of scholar, candidate, and champion? "

Niu Niu asked puzzledly: "Mother, what's the use of being the number one scholar?"

Lu Yumin induced them: "You can be an official if you pass the exam! Be an official just like your uncle."

Niu Niu asked again: "What's the use of being an official?"

Lu Yumin told him: "When you become an official, you will receive money and you will have food!"

Huzi immediately said: "Third Aunt, then you don't need to be an official, our family can still eat without being an official!"

Niu Niu immediately nodded like a chicken pecking at rice: "Mother, our family also has food!"

Education failed!Lu Yumin has black lines all over her head!
Seeing that the children were not taught, Li Sanlin stood up and beat them again. Lu Yumin stopped him and said to Niu Niu and Hu Zi: "That means, you don't want to be officials to earn money to eat, but to farm for food. Is that what you mean?"

Huzi and Niu Niu immediately nodded their heads: "Yeah! Going to school is so boring! We might as well learn how to farm!"

Lu Yumin rolled her eyes when she heard what the two said, and immediately smiled and said, "Okay, okay, since you don't want to go to school, you can't force it. If you want to learn farming, you have to suffer, because farming is very hard, are you afraid?"

Huzi and Niu Niu said in unison: "We are not afraid!"

Lu Yumin winked at Li Sanlin and said to them: "Well, if you don't want to go to school anymore, your parents won't force you, and the same goes for Huzi. If your parents leave you to us, then the third uncle and the third aunt will not be forced to do so." I have to take care of you. How about this, Niuniu, from today on, you and Huzi will go to plant rapeseed with your dad! It just so happens that today the family will start planting rapeseed, and there is no one to prepare the land! But listen carefully, you have to learn how to grow temples You are not allowed to complain about suffering or tiredness, let alone not learning how to farm! Can you do it?"

Huzi and Niuniu said in unison again: "Yes, we will definitely not be afraid of hardships or tiredness!"

Lu Yumin nodded with a sly smile and said: "Okay, since you have such great determination, let's stop going to school and learn how to farm! But I want to tell you that this kind of rape is the easiest job in farming. The two of you went to change your clothes first! We set off."

After receiving the order, the two children quickly ran into the room. Li Sanlin looked at the little daughter-in-law with a smirk on her face, and thought it was funny: "Daughter-in-law, have you thought of a way to punish them?"

Lu Yumin "spit" at him: "Is your wife so treacherous? Can you punish children? I call it labor education law! Come on, let them experience it this afternoon, what is farming!"

They arrived at the three acres of land in the village in a horse-drawn carriage. The field had already been plowed, and now the main thing was to do the leveling work. Lu Yumin gave each of them a small shovel and asked Li Sanlin to demonstrate how to level the ground.

One of the two boys was in his early teens, and the other was almost nine years old. From the sleepy and boring classroom to the vast field, the two were like fish meeting water, and their faces looked like chicken blood. , very excited!
According to Li Sanlin's demonstration, the two began to happily learn to prepare the land, and they learned it well. They thought this kind of land was too easy to learn!
Niu Niu took a small hoe and said to Hu Zi: "Brother Hu Zi, this kind of land is so fun, I will never doze off again!"

Huzi nodded energetically and said, "I won't either! Let's compete in a while to see who can do more!"

Niu Niu said with interest: "Okay! I must be faster than you!"

Throwing the small hoe, talking about Li Sanlin's demonstration, the two children started to learn how to farm with great interest.

The sun above the head was still very hot when it was about two o'clock in the sun. After a while, several people's clothes were soaked in sweat. The two children turned from the excitement just now to calm. After an hour, the two little faces were completely blank. A crying face!

When Lu Yumin came back from the vegetable garden, Niu Niu was pawing the ditch weakly with a look of wanting to cry, while Hu Zi was beating the adobe with a dull face like a machine.

Lu Yumin wanted to laugh when she saw this, she wants to learn how to farm, right?This is not enough?Still early!
She came over with a pot of herbal tea and said, "Everyone, let's have some herbal tea and rest for a while before doing it."

"Ah? Do you still have to do it? When will you finish it?" Niu Niu immediately regained his energy when he heard that he could take a rest, but when he heard that he still had to do it again, he lost his face again.

Lu Yumin asked with a half-smile: "What? Niu Niu is scared? This land has just started to be reorganized? How can it be so fast? It will take at least seven or eight days to plant rapeseed."

Niu Niu said stubbornly: "Mom, I don't have..."

Huzi also looked scared, but he didn't dare to say that he was afraid of suffering: "Third Aunt, I don't either!"

Lu Yumin encouraged them and said: "I knew that Niuniu and Huzi are capable and good boys! After planting the rapeseed, we will start making kimchi. With your help in the future, mother will not have to bend over to cut Chinese cabbage every day." I cut off the Chinese cabbage in that field, and my waist couldn't stand up for several days!"

"Ah!..." The two pairs of eyes, which were wider than a bull's eye, were filled with not only surprise, but also fear!
Lu Yumin smiled and asked: "What? Are you scared? There is nothing to be afraid of. Even the most tired Niu Niu knows it. It is when our family harvests summer that it is called tired! The hottest time is when the head is sunburned and the feet are soaked. , and there are leeches biting people from time to time, that's so tiring, I'm afraid even thinking about it!"

Seeing the two little faces turn from red to white in an instant, Li Sanlin looked at his treacherous daughter-in-law and smiled secretly!It seems that she has the means to deal with these ignorant brats!

Lu Yumin looked at the two faces whose expressions turned back and forth and asked intentionally: "What? Are you afraid? I know you won't complain, because you are all men!"

Niu Niu blushed again: "Mother, we are not afraid!"

Huzi also quickly expressed his opinion: "I'm not afraid either!"

Lu Yumin smiled and continued to encourage: "I know, my Niuniu and Huzi are the most capable children."

When Li Sanlin saw that everyone had almost drunk water, he said: "Okay, let's start work, it will be dark in a while! Niuniu follow me, Huzi, you follow your Grandpa Qin to see each other, you are in the front. Clear the light from behind!"

The so-called Qingguang is to fine-tune the soil ditch. The first step is to pick the soil on the mats on both sides, and the second step is to pick the soil mats on both sides again. However, the latter requires skill to avoid unevenness.
