When I got home, it was already dark. After dinner, Zhao Heng was lying on the bed covered with a hard quilt, and then he suddenly remembered that he didn't go to buy sheets and quilts.

I thought silently in my heart that I must not forget to buy a quilt next time I go to town.

With a sigh, Zhao Heng closed his eyes and fell asleep after a while.

The next morning, he got up early and went to the field to see if the seeds in the field had sprouted. The morning air was extraordinarily fresh. Zhao Heng stretched out and walked out slowly. He was about to go to the ground to see how the newly planted seeds were doing.

Pushing the door open, he saw Zhang Qiao carrying water home from the well within a few steps.

There are several wells in the village for public use, and one of them is very close to here, only a few steps away.

It takes a lot of money to dig a well, at least five taels of silver, which most people can't afford. Usually, people nearby don't dig a well in their own yard for nothing, but only get up early to go to the public well. water to eat.

Seeing Zhao Heng, Zhang Qiao stopped, put down the burden on his shoulders, and greeted him: "Zhao Heng, where are you going out so early?"

Zhao Heng smiled: "Go to the ground to see if the seeds are sprouting."

Zhang Qiao He stretched out his hand to wipe the sweat on his forehead, and said, "Wait for me, I'll go with you after carrying this bucket of water."

He had promised to help Zhao Heng sow seeds, but he met his cousin halfway and asked him to take it. He left in a hurry, Zhang Qiao felt a little guilty, and always felt that he didn't do what he promised others, so this time I wanted to go to the field with Zhao Heng to see if there was anything he didn't understand. He has a hand.

"Okay, see how tired you are, let me help you." Zhao Heng said, taking the burden from Zhang Qiao's side, hanging two wooden buckets full of water, and put the burden on his shoulders at once.

"Hey, how can I do it? I'll do it." Zhang Qiao hurriedly reached out his hand to take it from Zhao Heng, but he didn't expect that his hand was empty, and Zhao Heng had already put the pole on his shoulder.

After leaving Zhang Qiao's house, the two walked slowly and leisurely on the road.

Zhang Qiao asked, "The seeds you planted may have sprouted now!"

Zhang Qiao personally instructed him when he was farming before, otherwise Zhao Heng, as a modern man who has never planted before, would never know how to plant the seeds . of.

"Yes!" The

two laughed and walked to Zhao Heng's land, Zhang Qiao's eyes were good, and when there was still a long way to go, he happily said to Zhao Heng: "I see the tender shoots in the ground! "

When Zhao Heng planted the seeds, he loosened the soil a little while weeding. The seeds Jiang Yuan gave were tomato and cucumbers that were easy to support. As long as they were lightly covered with a layer of fine soil, they would germinate in a short time.

One by one, tender green buds emerged from the brown-yellow land, which looked very gratifying.

"Hey, that's right!" Zhang Qiao suddenly remembered something and asked Zhao Heng: "What kind of cake you made a few days ago, it's delicious, especially the one with red fruit."

Zhao Heng couldn't help laughing Sheng: "What kind of red fruit, it's called chili! The one you make is called pocket cake, and there is also a hand-picked cake."

"Oh, yes, yes, you said you were going to set up a stall a few days ago, and went to the county government office to do a sign. No? When you set up a brand and go to the North Market to set up a stall, I will definitely go and cheer for you!" Zhang Qiao recalled the pancakes he had eaten a few days ago, accompanied by red and bright peppers, and his saliva was so fragrant.

"Yesterday, I have already set up the brand, and I only have to wait a few days to set up a stall." Seeing his greedy appearance, Zhao Heng couldn't help but say: "You like chili so much? I bought it a few days ago. Didn't you still say that chili peppers are not delicious?"

Zhang Qiao scratched his head embarrassedly and said with a smile, "Actually, it's delicious, but I didn't know how to make it before. My mother's cooking is not as delicious as yours."

"Auntie is here?" Zhao Heng suddenly turned towards Zhang Qiao . The back smiled.

Zhang Qiao was shocked, but when he turned around, there was no one there. He knew in his heart that Zhao Heng was frightening him, so he could only smile and say, "Well, you Zhao Heng, you lied to me!"

Although his mother was an outsider Kind, but very strict with him. On the one hand, his father died early, and his younger brother left home when he was young. Only he and his grandmother lived at home. On the other hand, his grandmother's cooking skills never allowed him to talk too much.

When I was a child, because I was naughty and said that I didn't like to eat the rice made by my grandmother, I even overturned the bowl, causing my grandmother to chase and beat him in the yard. Thinking of the embarrassing incident when he was a child, Zhang Qiao helped his forehead, feeling a little speechless about his childhood deeds.

"Hahaha, you are saying behind your back that my aunt's cooking is not delicious. Be careful when she hears you go home and clean you up!"

Zhao Heng treats Zhang Qiao as a friend in his heart. After all, when he first came to this era, he was the first It was Zhang Qiao who showed his goodwill.

In his previous life, he was only in his twenties, and he was still young. He had managed to settle down in the past few days, and all aspects were on the right track. The jokes at this time were also a bit naive.

After walking around in the field, the sprouts were growing very well, Zhao Heng felt relieved.

In the current days, the farmhouse has nothing to do, so Zhang Qiao followed Zhao Heng, and the two of them wandered in the village together. Zhang Qiao also introduced Zhao Heng to the paths in the village.

Just after walking into the village, several

young .

This big banyan tree has existed in Dahe Village for many years. Dahe Village is not a clan village. People here have surnames and so on. The current residents all moved here a long time ago.

Zhilan Town is rich, and the villages and towns next to it are not poor. There are no trivial disputes between households, so they sit together in harmony and laugh.

Zhang Qiao's mother disliked the boredom at home, and came out early to find her old sister to knit sweaters together. Although it is still summer, it is time to wear autumn clothes when the weather cools down in a few days.

Aunt Zhang sat under the tree, her hands were constantly working, and she raised her head from time to time to chat with the people beside her.

"Yes, he lives next to my house...well, the children are good..."

Zhao Heng and Zhang Qiao couldn't hear what they were talking about, and they didn't want to listen to them, but Zhang Qiao turned his head and glanced at his own. My mother took a few steps forward and said hello, "Mum!"

Zhao Heng stood farther than Zhang Qiao and waited for him beside the big banyan tree. Should be farther away.

But Zhang Qiao's mother was in the crowd. Zhao Heng saw Zhang Qiao go to say hello to his mother. He took a few steps forward and reached Zhang Qiao's side to say hello to Zhang Qiao.

Aunt Zhang paused and put the things in her hands in the bamboo basket on her knees. She raised her head and asked in surprise, "Ah Qiao? Why are you here?

" His sister-in-law, he didn't go forward, but now amplifies his voice a bit: "I'll walk around the village with Zhao Heng, let's get acquainted with him."

"Oh, then you take him around more, you Let's go."

Aunt Zhang thought that Zhao Heng had just arrived, and she should take him to walk around the neighborhood. After Zhang Qiao and Zhao Heng nodded in agreement, she went back to her own business.

After the two left, the woman beside Zhang Amu kept asking her about Zhao Heng, and she was a little curious about what the refugees came here to do for a living.

After saying hello to Aunt Zhang, Zhang Qiao took Zhao Heng around the village and around the village all morning. According to his words, "you must be very familiar with the surrounding area". .

As the sun approached noon, the two went home separately.

Zhang Qiao originally said that he had to go to town in the afternoon to do some work, so he should go to work for others. Zhang Qiao was so energetic that he would definitely not be able to rest.

Zhao Heng didn't force it, he himself made arrangements for the afternoon.

When the weather was a little cooler in the afternoon, I went to Jiang Yuan's house by myself.

I opened a restaurant in ancient timesWhere stories live. Discover now
