There is Room For the Poor Daughter - Chapter 1002

[Chapter 1002, every porridge and meal are hard-won]

Every spring, Daohua will go to Daoxiang Village to inspect the spring plowing situation. Every time, she will bring rice, and when the rice arrives at the village, she will become friends with the children of the tenants in a short while. Now, beckoning cats and dogs, running wildly around.

Therefore, rice is no stranger to the fields.

Compared to when Xiao Moreng and the others were still annoyed because they stepped on the ground and soiled their shoes and knocked their feet, Rice had already happily picked up the ears of grain with his small bag.

The field where the children were picking ears of grain was harvested just yesterday.

After the rice is exposed to the sun, the grains are easy to fall off. Even if the tenants harvest carefully, some ears of grain will always fall in the field ditches.

Not only the rice is picked again, but also the children of the tenant households are picking it up.

The ears of grain left in the field belong to whoever picks them up, and there is no need to teach them. At this time, all the children of the tenant families will all be dispatched.

Looking at the children picking ears of grain everywhere in the field, Xiao Moreng and the others seemed to be assimilated, and slowly joined in picking ears of corn.

“We are picking the ears of grain because we are being punished, so are they?” Xiao Mobao picked up the ears of grain slowly, bent once, and only after a while would he bend the second time. Slowly, even the youngest Xiao Moxu walked ahead of him .

Hearing this, Daozi turned around and said, “I know that, they picked up these ears of grain to take them back to eat.”

Xiao Moqing showed a puzzled face: “There is so much grain planted in the field, is it not enough for them to eat?”

Daozi stopped Standing: “Because these lands are not theirs, the food has nothing to do with them. They can only get a small portion.” As

he said, he looked at Xiao Moreng seriously.

“Fourth brother, sixth brother, you must work hard. My father said that to many people, we are like fat meat, and we will provoke hungry wolves.”

“If we are not capable enough, we won’t be able to keep our property, and we will be eaten by the hungry wolves, even the skin and meat.” He said, pointing to the other children in the field.

“At that time, I can only be like them, helping others plant the land and picking up the ears of grain that others have fallen.”

Chu Lang on the ridge of the field: “.”

How did Xiao Yeyang teach rice? Such a small doll, can you say this?

However, it was hard for Daozi to remember, and he taught a lesson to the emperors and grandchildren so vividly.

Xiao Mofeng and Xiao Mokuan were a little older and already sensible, and when they heard what Daozi said, they thought about it, while Xiao Moqing, Xiao Mobao, and Xiao Moxu didn’t take it seriously.

At the beginning, the little ones were more interested, and encouraged by the children of the tenants, they also picked up some ears of grain and put them all in the bag in Dongli’s hand, which could be half a bag.

However, after picking it up for half an hour, after getting excited, Xiao Mobao first sat down on the ground, and refused to move no matter what.

After a while, Xiao Moxu quit.

But Daozi and Xiao Moqing went to catch sparrows with the children of the tenant family.

In this way, only Xiao Moreng and Xiao Mokuan, who were the oldest, were left in the field and continued to pick up the ears of grain resigned to their fate.

As older brothers, they can’t run around and play like their younger brothers. Grandpa Chu and Dongli’s guards are watching on the ridge.

In the open field, a group of sparrows flew around, looking for grains left in the ground.

Everywhere a sparrow lands, a child will jump at it.

“Bang!”

Seeing a sparrow fly to the haystack, Daozi jumped on it without thinking.

The haystack was not big, and the rice fell on it, and it collapsed directly, but fortunately, he caught the sparrow.

“Fourth brother, look quickly, I caught a sparrow!”

Daozi held the sparrow tightly with both hands, and ran towards Xiao Moreng excitedly, and when he got close, he said excitedly, “We can eat roasted sparrow later.”

Seeing a lot of straw stuck in the head of Daozi, Xiao Moreng cleaned it up for Daozi, Then he smiled and boasted: “Diaozi is really good.” Daozi was so proud that he grabbed the sparrow and ran to Chu Lang again: “Grandpa   Chu

, look, the sparrow I caught, they said the roasted sparrow is delicious.” Lang   smiled

and took the sparrow from Daozi’s hand: “This sparrow, grandpa let someone roast it, you can continue to pick up the ears of grain.”   He doesn’t want to pick rice ears anymore, he wants to play, catch sparrows, and climb trees. Seventh brother has already gone to climb trees to pick fruits with the children of the tenant family, and he wants to go too.   Chu Lang saw through the little guy’s mind at a glance, and said with a smile: “Do you still remember how you promised your mother before you went out?”   Daozi was silent, and muttered: “The seventh brother has gone to play.”   Chu Lang : “He is the eldest prince’s son, your mother is not easy to control, but you are your mother’s son, since you promised your mother to pick up the wasted food yesterday, you must do what you say.”   ”You don’t want to, either.” After going back in the afternoon, let your mother be disappointed?”   Daozi pursed her lips and looked at Chu Lang eagerly: “Grandpa Chu, but I’m tired.”   Chu Lang was not used to him, and continued with a smile: “Your mother said Well, if you can’t finish picking today, the amusement park will be closed for a while when you go back.”   Rice drooped her head, turned around silently, and returned to the field weakly to continue gleaning.   Seeing that the rice failed to find love, Xiao Mofeng and Xiao Mokuan were completely disappointed, and could only continue to bury their heads in picking ears of rice, but Xiao Moqing, seeing no one called him, continued to climb trees and catch birds with other children.   For Xiao Moreng and others who have never worked before, it is not easy to collect two bags of grain ears. In the afternoon, Chu Lang saw that the children were tired and asked them to go to the field that was just harvested today. to pick up.

When he came in the morning, he greeted the head of the farm and told them not to harvest too cleanly when they harvested the grain today.

The task of collecting two bags of grain ears must be completed by the children, and their enthusiasm cannot be dampened.

Xiao Yeyang knew that his son and some nephews were going to undergo labor reform in Zhuangzi today, so he took some officials out of the city to inspect the autumn harvest in various places.

When the evening was approaching, Xiao Yeyang and his party came to Zhuangzi. Firstly, they wanted to see their son’s achievements, and secondly, they came here to pick up the child.

People from An’s and Du’s families also followed. When they saw the dirty emperors and grandsons bending over to pick up ears of grain in the field, they felt very distressed.

They knew that the grandsons of the emperors came to Zhuangzi today to punish them for overturning the mooncakes yesterday. They thought Princess Xiao was just showing off, but they didn’t expect that she actually let the grandchildren go to work in the fields!

However, it was hard for them to say anything, they agreed to the emperor’s grandson coming to Zhuangzi, and Xiao Moxi also picked up ears of grain in the field, King Weiyuan didn’t feel sorry for his son, what could they say?

“Father!”

Seeing Xiao Yeyang approaching, Daozi immediately had a bright smile on his face, then opened his arms and feet, and ran towards Xiao Yeyang.

However, when he was stepping up the field ridge, he tripped and fell to the ground, and the ears of grain in the small bag hanging around his neck spilled all over the ground.

Just when everyone thought that King Weiyuan was going to step forward to comfort Daozi, they found that Xiao Yeyang just said calmly: “Stand up when you fall down.” He looked like it was no big deal.

Not only did Xiao Yeyang not move, but Chu Lang and others beside him also did not step forward.

Daozi sat on the ground, smiled hey, without embarrassment, clapped his hands, and then stood up as if nothing happened.

Xiao Yeyang tapped the ears of grain on the ground with his chin, and the rice immediately gave an ‘oh’, and then squatted down to pick up the ears of grain bit by bit.

“Father, there are too many ears of grain, please help me.”

At this time, Xiao Yeyang walked over, knelt down to pick up grain ears with his son, and asked while picking up grain ears, “Do you know that grain is hard to come by?”

Rice wrinkled her bun face, sighed and nodded: “Father, Food is so rare, Grandpa Chu said that the ears of grain I picked up today are only enough to make ten moon cakes, and I will never go to the kitchen to make trouble in the future.”

Xiao Yeyang rubbed his son’s head: “One porridge and one meal, when Thinking is hard-won, and it is shameful to waste food.”

Daozi nodded seriously: “Father, I understand.”

An, Du and other officials were stunned, as if they understood that Weiyuan Wang and his wife asked the children to come Zhuangzi’s intention.
