Although the frightened Ma Xiaole was a little angry, he had to smile when facing the village party secretary.

"It's me, Ma Xiaole, who went back to the village to buy mosquito coils. There are so many mosquitoes in the orchard." Ma Xiaole said in a flattering tone, "Secretary Fan, are you still up so late?"

"Little thing." Fan Baofa didn't pay any attention to what Ma Xiaole said, but said rather disappointedly: "I thought who was here to congratulate you."

When Ma Xiaole heard this, he immediately cursed in his heart, but he had to continue to sweeten his words, otherwise when the land was divided at the end of the year, the land would be too thin to grow on the barren beach, and no good crops could grow. "Secretary Fan, congratulations, then

That's for sure. Everyone in the village should come to congratulate you. It is your family's honor and the village's honor that Zaoni has been admitted to the county's key high school!" He immediately complimented, "No one in our village has passed the exam before.

It passed!"

When Fan Baofa was told this, he couldn't help but feel smug, "Xiao Le, have you bought the mosquito coil at this late hour? If not, I'll get you a plate."

Ma Xiaole frowned and quickly replied: "Secretary Fan, I really haven't bought it yet. The shops are closed."

"Zao Ni, bring me a plate of mosquito coils!" Fan Baofa straightened his neck, turned around and shouted into the room.

Ma Xiaole was very happy when she heard this. It was beautiful to be able to take the mosquito coil from Fan Zaoni's hand.

Soon, Fan Zaoni ran out of the courtyard with small steps, "Dad, why do you want mosquito coils?"

"Here it is, Xiao Le. I live alone in the wilderness. I don't have mosquito coils to feed the mosquitoes!" Fan Baofa looked like a kind person, "This Lai Shungui is really... alas, he is not his biological child after all, so it doesn't hurt.

oh."

"Dad, what are you talking about?" Fan Zaoni was a brat and knew what Fan Baofa said was inappropriate. "Can you see when someone is in pain?" After saying that, she waved the mosquito coil and walked towards Ma Xiaole.

"Zao Ni, congratulations, you have brought glory to Xiaonanzhuang Village!" Ma Xiaole's outstretched hand was trembling a little.

"You are the only one who knows how to speak." Fan Zaoni said angrily, "Ma Xiaole, you'd better say this to my dad. I don't like to hear it." As soon as she finished speaking, she threw the mosquito coils into Ma Xiaole's hand.

Turned around and entered the yard.

"This girl has a lot of abilities, but she's been spoiled by me, and she doesn't know what's good or bad!" Fan Baofa's seemingly scolding Fan Zaoni's words were full of pride and pride. After he lit a cigarette,

Then he said: "Xiao Le, as I said to congratulate you just now, you will also come to have a wedding banquet tomorrow. Why are you and Zaoni also classmates?"

"Oh, okay, Secretary Fan, I will definitely come! I will definitely come!" Ma Xiaole nodded and walked away, almost jogging all the way to the orchard. I was so happy, I got lucky tonight, not only did I see Zhang Xiuhua

I took a shower and was invited to a wedding banquet by the village party secretary.

When they were approaching the orchard, Ma Xiaole heard Ah Huang scream twice. Could it be that there was a thief in the house? He spread out his legs and started running.

The courtyard door is open, someone must be coming, there seems to be someone in the house.

"Who is it?!" Ma Xiaole asked loudly, emboldening himself at the same time, "I am holding a dog, let go and I will bite you to death!"

"You bastard!" A voice shouted from inside the house, "What are you talking about?! I'm your godfather!"

"Oh, godfather." Ma Xiaole walked into the yard, "It's so late, what are you doing here?"

Ma Changgen walked out of the house, "A night owl asked me to give birth to him? I ran out to have some fun in the middle of the night."

"What? I'm going to the village to buy mosquito coils."

"Isn't there a mosquito net?"

"It has a lot of holes and it doesn't work anymore."

"Your godmother just bought it not long ago, but why are there so many holes? It must be caused by your kid smoking!"

Ma Xiaole touched his head and said nothing.

"Mosquito nets cost a lot of money, don't worry about it." Ma Changgen didn't complain any more, "Have you bought the mosquito coils?"

"No, the shops are closed, but Fan Bao sent me a plate."

"Secretary Fan?" Ma Changgen almost didn't believe it, "He gave you mosquito coils?"

"Yes." Ma Xiaole said very proudly, "He even invited me to have a drink tomorrow!"

"Please?" Ma Changgen stared.

"Fan Zaoni and I are classmates, what's wrong with inviting me?"

"Hey, you are so beautiful, I think it's probably Secretary Fan who drank too much and was talking nonsense." Ma Changgen patted Ma Xiaole's head, "Go to bed quickly in the room, I'll sleep here too, I have to get up early tomorrow, and

There’s work to do.”

Ma Xiaole nodded and went into the room. After going to bed, he picked up the Book of Changes and started reading again.

"You kid, what's the use of reading these craps all day long? It would be great if you read more study books before you have the ability. It would be great if you could do well in the exam like Fan Zaoni. That would give me more face as your godfather!

Ma Changgen said and sighed, "Oh, I no longer have that chance!"

At this moment, Ma Xiaole's mind was not on the book. He was still thinking about Fan Baofa's words, so he said: "Godfather, it seems to me that Fan Baofa is not drunk at all. He is not talking nonsense. He really asked me to come to him tomorrow."

Drinking at home.”

"Okay, okay, then go and take a look. It would be weird if you don't get kicked out!" Ma Changgen said with his lips curled up.

Ma Xiaole knew that he and Ma Changgen could not talk together, so he rubbed the back of his head and laughed, and talked about other things, "Godfather, why did you come to sleep in the orchard tonight?"

"I had a fight with your godmother. That stinky bitch became more and more outrageous. I was so tired that my bones almost fell apart, and she kept messing around all day. Wasn't she looking for a fight?" Ma Changgen said angrily.

"Godfather, what do you mean?" Ma Xiaole didn't quite understand.

Ma Changgen frowned and glanced at Ma Xiaole, "Go, go, go, what do children know? Do I need to tell you?"

Not saying it was just right, Ma Xiaole didn't bother to listen, so he lit mosquito coils, turned over and fell asleep.

The next day, a cock crow started a new day.

The white fish is gradually rising in the East, but Xiaonanzhuang Village is still sleeping.

There is a gentle mist in the orchard, and the ripe apples are reddish, like a smiling little girl. There are also a few crabapples in the orchard, and the small yellow-green fruits hang heavily on the branches, looking heavy.

There is joy and tranquility. There are some watermelons, cantaloupes, su melons, shoot melons, and Ma Changgen taking care of these fruits under the fruit trees. Needless to say, they are one of the best in the village.

The large area of ​​crops around the orchard is lush and green and growing gratifyingly. The large area of ​​peanuts in the south is growing crazily. The green seedlings are as if they are inflated. They have reached their peak period. Next, all their nutrients will slowly transfer to the peanuts.

Pass it on, and it will be collected in a few months.

When the sun came up, Ma Changgen had already chopped a lot of firewood in the yard. When he saw that it was almost time, he called Ma Xiaole to get up, "Xiaole, get up and get ready to go back to the village for dinner!"

"I'll sleep a little longer." Ma Xiaole said drowsily.

"I'm still sleeping, I have a lot of work to do in the morning." Ma Changgen raised his voice, "Why don't you have breakfast!"

Hearing this, Ma Xiaole reluctantly got up, stretched out and said, "Godfather, what kind of work do you have in the morning?"

"The drainage ditches in the fruit tree field are all blocked. We need to open them quickly. If it rains heavily and gets waterlogged, what kind of fruit will be produced next year?!" Ma Changgen straightened his neck and said.

Ma Xiaole's face grew red as soon as he heard this. The work was purely tiring. The fruit branches were so heavy that he couldn't straighten his back. He had to bend down to dig the soil, and his back ached within a few moments.

I have no choice. If I don't go to school, I'll just be at home doing farm work.

Ma Xiaole followed Ma Changgen home.

Walking along the riverside path to the village, Ma Xiaole couldn't be more envious as she looked at the reeds swaying in the wind and listened to the calls of waterbirds inside. The little birds were so free.

There are large fields of crops, and you can fly wherever you want, catch insects and play around without anyone caring about you.

As they were walking, Erluzi climbed up from the river embankment, holding a snakeskin bag in his hand and looking around blankly.

"Hey, Erluzi!" Ma Xiaole walked over and shouted, making Erluzi tremble in fright.

"What do you want to do?" Erduozi asked slowly.

"What are you carrying?" Ma Xiaole stared at the snakeskin bag and asked, "He is as sneaky as a thief."

Erluzi grabbed the bag tightly and said, "What do you care about? I caught them anyway, and I didn't steal them."

Ma Changgen also came over, took a look at the snakeskin bag in Er Lengzi's hand, and his eyes suddenly lit up, "What a guy! Such a majestic eel, if it is eaten as a snack, it will definitely run around the village, and the women in the family will watch it.

Hurry and hide, otherwise you will be walking with your legs crossed the next day!"

"Godfather, why are you walking with your legs crossed?" Ma Xiaole asked with a smile.

"Children don't know how to get involved." Ma Changgen just smiled and said to Erluozi, "Erlunzi, give me the eel, and you can go to my orchard and eat whatever you want, as much as you like.

Even though my stomach is full, I just can’t take it home!”

The second idiot stared with big eyes, pondered for a long time, and said: "Then I will give you half of the eel, and then go to your orchard to eat half of it, how about it?"

"Hehe, this kid is not stupid." Ma Changgen touched Erduzi's head and said, "What are you going to do with half of the eel?"

"Leave it to my dad, or he'll beat my ass."

"Haha, okay, just half." Ma Changgen said, breaking off a willow stick, peeling it into slippery strips, and pierced three large eels.

"Uncle Changgen, don't just pick the big one!" Er Lunzi looked at the eel in Ma Changgen's hand and was reluctant to part with it.

"Isn't that different? You go to my orchard and pick big fruits to eat, the biggest ones!"

Er Lengzi hesitated for a moment, nodded and said: "That's okay!"

Ma Changgen ran home happily carrying the eel, while Ma Xiaole followed behind and panted heavily from exhaustion.

"Damn it!" Ma Changgen shouted as soon as he entered the door, "Look what I got?"

"Why are you back here? If you can, just stay in the orchard!" A strong voice rushed out from the stove, and then a thick and fat woman came out with a ladle of water.

The woman's name is Hu Aiying. She is a bit richer, but her appearance is still decent.
