Nongmen ruffian concubine: ploughing the fields, planting buns

Chapter 246 Understand a truth

The teenagers came in the afternoon the next day, and it didn't take long to plan the rest of the land, and the ravines were also straightened out.

Everyone rejected Ding Shitou's offer to stay for dinner, and said they would go home to eat, and they would not come over to study in the evening.

After all, after studying for so long, I have almost learned "Thousand Characters". I have already memorized it by heart, but I am still not proficient in writing.

Because Ding Shitou said about her plan to make a book, everyone may come to help copy the book in the future, so I can't leave it all to Brother Huzi, right?
Therefore, there is a sense of urgency, and I want to work hard secretly, and I want to practice calligraphy.

A knife of yellow bamboo paper is thirty cash, and a fine brush is ten cash. Adding up to forty cash, you can get ten catties of fungus. That is to say, if they work hard a day, they can earn the cost ,

Ding Shishitou said that it can be used for a long time to practice small script with a knife of paper. They must have inkstones before they were enlightened. They bought ink sticks for twenty yuan a piece and added more water. The ink can be used for a long time if it is slightly diluted. .

Sixty Wen, and one or two months of practicing calligraphy, is sure to be able to get it.

No one has thought about this problem before, but they are reluctant to spend money on it. They think it is expensive and can be used for home use for a long time.

But seeing Ding Shitou's actions now, they were all a little moved.

I used to pick fungus and sell them for five cents, but how many times a month can I sell them?But now I don't have to worry about no one asking for the goods, and I don't need to spend time running to the city, I just need to pick them up and give them to my family.

This account will be counted, so everyone gets up early and runs up the mountain every day, constantly climbing to high places, just to pick more fungus and come back.

Writing on the sand table has also become more diligent.

They also went home to make a sand table and practice calligraphy every day when they have time.

Ding Shitou taught them how to sharpen a bamboo pen and get familiar with writing with the posture of holding the pen, and then replace it with a real pen and paper, so that the posture will not be out of shape, and the state can be found faster.

After dinner, Jiang Huzi and Zhang Zhong came over again, while Ding Shitou and Ding Dian were going to the toilet behind the old manure bucket, preparing to pick out the manure and put it in the plowed field first.

Unlike other people's dried manure, they added water and dilute it and fertilized it directly.

Jiang Huzi and Zhang Zhong came to help on purpose. They remembered this incident, which made Ding Shitou very grateful, but they did not pretend to refuse.

Ding Shitou's arms are strong, but that doesn't mean he can carry heavy weights. Adding a little bit, they can't complete the task overnight.

With Jiang Huzi and Zhang Zhong, it was much easier.

Not long after, Liu Xuegui also came.

However, Liu Xuegui sent the books here. He came here in a hurry yesterday evening and was a little excited. He actually forgot to pick up the books and made a special trip to deliver them tonight.

Seeing them throwing dung with a long wooden handle, they also volunteered to help.

But his kindness won everyone's appreciation. It's not a matter of intentions. If an unskilled person gets his clothes dirty, it will be even more troublesome, right?

"I have recently learned a truth. It is important to read thousands of books and travel thousands of miles. Traveling thousands of miles does not necessarily mean walking a long distance, but what you see and learn along the way. experience."

Liu Xuegui insisted on helping, holding a long dung ladle and splashing water in the same way as yesterday. Although his movements were too careful and slow, he still looked a bit like that.

After hearing his words, Jiang Huzi gave him a deep look.

"It's not too late for you to understand such a truth, which is a good thing." Ding Shitou gave him an approving look.

"As the old saying goes, a scholar who is useless is a scholar who is powerless. A scholar who has experience and is willing to try and learn new things will not be useless."
