Gu Qingming got up early and walked in the yard.

After a while, I saw my grandmother walking out of the firewood room and carrying a load of empty plastic buckets.

"Grandma!" Gu Qingming called grandma, "What are you going to do? Are you carrying water?"

"Flee water? If you have water at home, you don't need to go outside to pick it up." Grandma said, "It hasn't rained for a few days. I plan to water the vegetables. The cabbage and sweet potatoes I planted a few days ago must be watered, otherwise I will have to be dried up!"

Gu Qingming immediately said with interest, "Grandma, let me go with you!"

Grandma knew that this granddaughter was curious about everything and nodded, "Okay, let's go together!"

Grandma carried the bucket in front and followed Gu Qingming behind her.

Gu Qingming asked with a little curiosity, "Grandma, where is the place to grow vegetables this time?"

"Haha, this time it's a bit far away." Grandma laughed, "But there are not many fields, there are only two rows of land, one row grows cabbage and the other row grows sweet potatoes."

"Why are the fields of every family not together?" Gu Qingming asked, "Isn't this part of the world quite troublesome to do this work?"

Grandma explained with a smile, "In 1982, when we were divided into single places, we were all drawn out by lots. Because the fields were good and bad, it was impossible to divide the good ones into ones, and the bad ones were divided into ones. Therefore, good and dry land were divided into each family's population, and then lottery was drawn."

Gu Qingming nodded and said, "Oh, so that's the case. I said that every land in every family is from this piece and that piece, instead of gathering it all together, it is more convenient to work!"

"Haha, who would like to do this? If you are assigned to good fields, you will definitely be happy. If you are all bad fields, you will definitely not want to do it." Grandma smiled.

The two of them chatted while walking.

After about fifteen minutes of walking, I came to the bottom of a big maple tree.

"This is a maple tree!" Gu Qingming still knows ordinary trees, "Grandma, this maple tree is so big!"

This maple tree is so big.

The main trunk is very thick, and it is estimated that two people can hold hands and embrace each other.

Lush maple leaves are densely packed and stacked.

From a distance, it looks like a big mushroom or a big green mushroom.

"It is said that this maple tree is three hundred years old," said grandma. "A small temple is built under the maple tree, where the grain gods are worshipped. So, here is called the temple. Every day on the first day and fifteenth day, someone will take tribute to worship the grain gods. Nannan, do you want to go and see it?"

"Well, go and have a look!" Gu Qingming said with interest.

Grandma said with a serious expression, "Nannan, when you enter the Grain Temple, whether you respect it or not, or whether you want to respect it or not, you must respect it, do you know?"

She knew that children like Nannan who received scientific education would definitely not care about it if they asked them to worship the temple.

However, temples have been passed down from China for thousands of years. Modern people must at least respect whether they believe it or not.

Gu Qingming's expression also became serious. She nodded and responded seriously, "Yes, grandma!"

When I arrived at the foot of the big maple tree, I saw a small house, about ten square meters, and two more.

One respects the God of Grain, the other respects the Bodhisattva Guanyi and the God of Wealth.

There is a tribute table and incense burner.

A few apples were placed on the altar, and there were burning incense candles in the incense burner.

It seems that someone came to worship God early in the morning.

In front, there is a corridor about one meter wide, about three or four meters long.

On both sides of the corridor are short cement stools.

This was designed to facilitate the worker to rest or hide from the rain when it rains.

It was the first time Gu Qingming saw such a small temple.

But although it is small, it is the hope and spiritual sustenance of farmers in the past.

Even modern times, that's true.

Gu Qingming followed his grandmother's words and looked at him curiously, but he respected him sincerely.

The land of my grandmother's house is right in front of the small temple.

Gu Qingming saw what his grandmother grew.

"Grandma, is this a cabbage seedling?"

Gu Qingming pointed at a small and tender seedling.

"Yes, this is cabbage!"

"Then are these sweet potato seedlings?"

"right."

Gu Qingming asked in confusion, "Are the sweet potato seedlings planted with vines? Or have they grown so long?"

This sweet potato vine looks two or three feet long.

"Puchi!" Grandma laughed, "I just planted it a few days ago, so why did that piece grow so fast? This is the sweet potato vine planted. Nannan, you can wait here for a while, I'll go to get water down there!"

"good!"

Grandma pointed to a small river next to her.

But this river is at a certain height from this place.

To carry water, you have to go down.

Then, my grandmother carried the bucket and walked down the steps carefully.

The slope is a bit steep and you must be careful.

Gu Qingming looked at it and said with a little concern, "Grandma, is there any danger? It's so high that you still have to carry water?"

"No! I've been picking like this for most of my life."

Grandma had already walked to the river and put the bucket directly into the river.

After a moment, two buckets of water were filled.

"Grandma, will you be too full? Be careful!" Gu Qingming said worriedly, "This ladder is just hoeed with a hoe, be careful to slide!"

"Don't worry, I'm used to walking."

"Oh, but you still have to be careful!" Gu Qingming said, "This slope is so steep, I dare not pick it up!"

When grandma heard this, she smiled and said, "Haha, it's your tender skin that you can pick a dish and carry a load?"

Seeing grandma picking up the water, Gu Qingming came over, put his hand on the edge of the bucket. The water was already full of water, which rose a little invisible to the naked eye.

Grandma put down the load, picked up the ladle, and started to scoop water, and began to water each seedling.

Gu Qingming said, "Grandma, didn't we pick some sweet potato leaves the day before yesterday? The sweet potatoes are so big, why have they just planted here?"

Grandma explained, "This sweet potato is mainly used for eating. It is made of sweet sweet potatoes and red hearts. A few days ago, it is used to use sweet potato flour to make sweet potato flour. That variety of sweet potatoes has a lot of powder."

Gu Qingming didn't understand a little, but he didn't continue to ask again.

"Is that cabbage a good-for-autumn cabbage?"

"Well, that's what I can say."

"The things planted around the beginning of autumn are almost called turning over autumn."

"Oh, that's it!"

The grandparents and grandchildren worked while chatting, and although Gu Qingming was responsible for chatting, he did not work.

But her eyes never let the water in the bucket go.

After half of a bucket, Gu Qingming placed his hands on the edge of the bucket again.

Gu Qingming put two buckets four times.

The amount of spiritual spring water is different each time.

But today, the purpose of following my grandmother has been achieved. I will wait two days to see how the cabbage and the red growth is.

After the grandma finished watering the vegetable, she went to another piece of land and watered the land.

Gu Qingming used the same trick again.

One morning, Gu Qingming used spiritual spring water.
Chapter completed!
