Farmer’s Little Girl

  Chapter 43 Seeing the essence through the phenomenon

   The sun was still shining at noon, but the sky began to cloud when class was about to end in the afternoon.

  Manbao and Bai Shanbao lay on the table and looked out, both of them were a little excited. It would really rain if the ants moved.

  Mr. Zhuang also saw him. After class, he asked the students to stay in the classroom and wait for family members to pick him up. Then he took Man Bao and Shan Bao to the yard next door to him.

   took the two children to the study, and said, "You saw ants moving in the morning. What do you see now?"

  Man Baodao: "It's raining, it will rain if the ants move."

Mr. Zhuang laughed and said: "Silly boy, you reverse the order. It is not that the ants move and it will rain, but it is about to rain. The ants have to move and move their home to a safe place. Humans see Then I knew it was going to rain."

  Mr. Zhuang spoke slowly. The two children moved their fingers to and fro for a while, and found that it was true, so they nodded.

Mr. Zhuang pointed to the rain curtain outside and continued to ask, "What are you seeing now?"

  The two children said in unison, "It's raining."

"These are all appearances," Mr. Zhuang said: "Man Bao, your parents told you that it will rain when ants move, so you believe that it will rain when ants move, Shan Bao, you have never heard of such things. So all I saw were ants moving. But do you know what the teacher would think of when he saw ants?"

  The two children shook their heads.

"The teacher will not only think that it is about to rain, but also think that there are so many ants under my house. The ants gnaw on the house and furniture. If the house starts to control insects and ants, I will also think that the embankment of a thousand miles was destroyed by Ant nest..." Mr. Zhuang told them about ants in detail.

  Manbao and Shanbao were stunned. How did they know that a small ant would not only gnaw a big tree to death, but could also vacate a house and destroy a thousand-mile dyke.

  Mr. Zhuang finished talking about the autumn rain outside, telling them that what they see now is only a rain, but in the eyes of different people, this autumn rain has different meanings.

  For these children, the autumn rain only temporarily imprisoned them in the school, but for the farmers, the fall of the autumn rain means that they can start plowing and grazing, and prepare for the cultivation in the coming year.

  For those who want to go out, this autumn rain is more harmful than good, because they don’t know how much time will be lost.

  Mr. Zhuang said this to the two children in detail. It seemed irrelevant, but the conversation turned back to the county magistrate.

"In the morning, I asked you what the county magistrate did. What you said was what you saw with your eyes and the most intuitive impression you heard with your ears, but in fact, what you said was not complete," Mr. Zhuang said: "Sometimes what your eyes are. See, what your ears are not necessarily what you think in your heart. Look more, listen more, and think more. If there are too many emotions in your chest, then put it down temporarily, don't make a final conclusion, wait for the time to pass a little bit. If you think about these things when you are calm enough, you may have different gains."

  The two children understood a little bit, but they didn’t really understand it yet, but Mr. Zhuang didn’t let them understand now. Instead, he asked them to remember what he said, and they would understand when they should understand.

With words, the Bai family and Zhou family came to pick up the two children. Man Bao and Shan Bao said goodbye to their husband. The two ran out in the rain holding hands. They were so happy that the two children ran out. At that time, I deliberately found a place where there was a puddle to step on, and the two of them were happier when they stepped on the water.

  Outside the yard, the two adults’ warnings and reprimands sounded one after another. The two children stomped on the water and ran to their respective families.

  Mr. Zhuang stood at the door watching, touching his beard again and again, but thinking about what Man Bao said in his heart.

  The county magistrate wants to increase the entrance fee. What is the purpose of this time?

Mr. Zhuang naturally knows more than Zhou’s family. In fact, as early as three years ago, the magistrate Fu added a deduction to the city fee when he first came to Luojiang County. Not only that, the tax and service donations were aggravated, and then the magistrate Fu Within two years, a section of the official road was repaired, the Luojiang dam was reinforced, and a canal was dug for Xianguo.

  The county magistrate has a three-year term of office. This year, the county magistrate Fu has not been transferred, indicating that he is still in this term, but I don’t know whether he wants to do political affairs this time or do nothing.

  Mr. Zhuang is a little worried.

  But these questions obviously cannot be talked to the two children.

  Man Bao was taken home by Feng, and as soon as he got home, he went to the kitchen to bathe her with hot water. There was no way. The child stepped on the water. Not only the shoes were wet, but the pants were also wet.

  Qian touched her little hand while scolding her, “I'm getting more and more uneasy. Why do you feel that you are more naughty when you go to the school?”

  Man Bao said: "Bai Shanbao also stepped on the water."

   "He is him, you are you, maybe he still learned from you, let you learn well, not learn bad, let alone teach other children bad."

  Man Bao sighed, "Well, I won’t step on the water in the future."

  The child’s guarantee is as unreliable as the day in July.

Qian asked Feng to take a bath for her, and gave her a bowl of hot water, and then let her go to play, but he told her, "Don't go out and step on the water to get wet, otherwise I won't allow you to go to school tomorrow." "

  Man Bao is when he loves learning, how can he be reluctant to go?

  So she could only sit in the hall and wait for her brothers to come back.

  Thursuro Lang and his two younger brothers were hiding from the rain under the tree. They ran back when the rain was not too heavy, but they were also wet.

  Weilang and the others helped to open up wasteland today, cut a lot of bamboo by the way, and then winked at Yaomei when they came back.

  Man Bao understood that when Lang came back on Tuesday, he would pester him to help arrange the flower basket.

On Tuesday Lang Zheng wanted to say that Man Bao’s flower basket made a lot of money before. On Tuesday, Lang didn’t say anything, but he was very excited, but he has a lot of things to be busy recently. I asked, immediately knowing that it was the idea of ​​the old five and the sixth, he did not refuse, and said: "Let the old five and the sixth cut the bamboo strips, and I will weave them for them when I come back."

  Even Lao Zhoutou said, "I will help you edit it when I come back from the ground."

After thinking about it, I felt that the fourth child was too unreliable to open up wasteland. He hesitated: "Why don't you let the fourth child not go to open up wasteland? It's more practical to help at home."

  Thursday Lang is refreshed and wants to nod his head.

  However, Manbao refused to agree. Manbao said: "Father, the fourth brother is not obedient. That is punishment. The husband said, Chao Lingxi change is a big taboo. What if the fourth brother thinks that there is nothing wrong with doing something wrong in the future?"

   "He dare to see if I don't kill him!"

  Man Bao despised her father, "You must not be able to beat Brother 4, otherwise you would be so sad."

  Lao Zhou's head was choked and he waved his hand: "Okay, let your fourth brother continue to open up wasteland. Your fifth and sixth brothers will see if you can continue the flower basket business for a long time."
