Chapter 130 Your mother is amazing

Li said weakly: "Isn't Mom at home? Anyway, Mom has watched it. I definitely don't want to watch it anymore. You can let me go..."

Suddenly at noon, the Zhu family went outside in a swarm. Many people saw them and stood at the door of the courtyard asking them what was going on.

"What's going on? Of course I'm going to try out the new plow." Zhu Wu said with a proud look on his face, "Do you remember Ye Dou? My mother had a new idea and asked the carpenter to make it. Now she is preparing to go to the field.

Let’s try it.”

The villagers in Ye Dou still had the impression that when they heard it was a "new plow", they quickly ran out one by one.

"Really?! Your mother has come up with something new again? Is this thing useful for Ye Dou?"

"Yes, is Ye Dou useful?"

"Your mother is so amazing. That Ye Dou was so good back then. I don't know how many days of work she saved us, and she doesn't have to worry about harvesting a few more loads of rice."



Zhu Wu was eager to show off what he had newly learned, so he told them all the benefits of Quyuan Li that he had summarized before.

Finally, he concluded: "Whether this thing is useful or not will only be known after it is put into the field. It just so happens that we still have several pieces of land that have not been plowed, so you can try it out when the time comes."

Soon, the tail that had hung so far reached the ground.

The villagers saw the Zhu brothers uncovering a hemp mat, revealing a plow that was somewhat different from the usual plows they saw.

They didn't use oxen. Zhu Wu stood directly in front and asked his brother Zhu San to stand behind to hold him. They followed him and walked.

Anyone who has plowed the land knows that the land cannot be plowed without oxen. Even if there is a plow, people cannot plow without the oxen.

However, a scene that surprised them appeared. Although Zhu Wu walked with some difficulty, he actually dragged the new plow?!

"It's moving, it's moving, look, it's moving."

"Holy shit!"

He screamed in surprise, unable to believe it.

Of course, the advantage of the curved-column plow is not that it can save an ox compared to the straight-column plow. In fact, it is very laborious to drag it manually, but it saves a lot of effort compared to the straight-column plow.

.

When they reached the corner, Zhu Wu asked his third brother not to stop and to continue following him.

Normally, it is difficult to turn a straight-shaft plow, and some people do not use it well, so they just use brute force to move it and turn it around. But looking at the way Zhu Wu turned around, it seemed that all he had to do was follow suit.

"Ah, it's mobilized like this?! This is too easy."

"No, I have to try."

Just after looking around, someone became interested and wanted to go down to the ground to try it out, regardless of the difficulty of relying on people to pull this thing.

Naturally, the Zhu brothers wouldn't let them go. Their own brothers hadn't finished trying, so how could they let outsiders go?

Zhu Da, Zhu Er, and Zhu Si were all still waiting there, lining up to try. They stood in front, stood in the back, and experienced them all.

At this time, Zhu Sihu and Zhu Wuzhuang were also standing in the crowd, staring wide-eyed at the cousins ​​who were busy in the fields.

They really couldn't believe how long after the autumn harvest ended, that "aunt" with a notorious reputation actually came up with something again?

"Brothers Zhu, let us try it after your turn is over."

"That's right, let's try it."

The villagers gathered around, eager to try.

Zhu Wu knew that if his Quyuan plow was going to be sold, the villagers would have to try it out, so he discussed it with his third brother, and made it mysterious and made the momentum so great. In fact, it was just to attract their attention.

attention.

He caught the look from his third brother and saw that it was almost done, so he decisively gave up his seat and let everyone line up to try.

Zhu Sihu and Zhu Wuzhuang were also moved. Thinking that the two families had resumed walking around recently, they quickly stood up: "That, that..."

Because I was too nervous, I couldn't say it out loud.

"You also want to try?" Zhu Wu naturally knew these two cousins, looked them up and down, and asked.

Zhu Sihu and Zhu Wuzhuang nodded excitedly.

"Okay, since you are my cousin, you go ahead." Zhu Wu turned his head and said to the others, "Do you have any objections?"

"No, no, I am your cousin. But I will be next, okay? You still call me uncle."

As soon as the strong man finished speaking, someone next to him turned him around and said, "Hahaha... call you uncle? Don't they call me uncle? Of all of you here, how many of you are not uncles or uncles? In this order

, definitely not."

Zhu Wu didn't need to take action at all, and a group of people began to rank based on seniority.

There are only a few dozen gates in the whole Zhujia Village, and each house is related to another house. If you line up the father's side, then your mother's side, you can always line them up one after another.

If it really can't be sorted out, just calculate it based on age.

"Good guy, this thing saves effort."

"It's definitely less labor-intensive than the previous one, but I don't know how much this thing costs."

“It’s definitely more expensive than before.”

When it comes to price, many people retreat.

It's not easy for any company. It's not like the straight-shaft plows in the past can no longer be used. Unless conditions permit, there is really no way to "abandon the old and seek the new." These days, people also pay attention to "frugality" and save whatever they can.

Of course, it would be no problem to replace it with a new one for someone like the Li Zheng family. There are many brothers like Old Man Zhu, so if several families pool their money to replace it with a new one, and then take turns taking turns, there would be no problem.

"What are you afraid of? It depends on which company in our village has changed. Let's discuss it with them. Can't we just get some things and 'rent' them for a while?" This was already proposed when discussing with Chai Hong.

Zhu Wu brought up the concept of "renting" without hesitation.

After everyone heard it, they thought this method was good.

You try it, I try it, under the bright sun, in one afternoon, everyone "tried" this piece of land.

Some people who heard the news came late and didn’t even have the chance to try, so they could only listen to others’ “bragging”.

Anyway, in the evening of that day, a group of people sat under the old locust tree in Zhujia Village and had something new to talk about.

Some people who have never tried it feel envious when they hear how others who have tried it brag.

"Hey, if you don't come out when I ask you to, why are you talking about being exposed to the sun? You haven't seen it before, right?" As for those who had something to brag about, they looked proud and felt that they were particularly awesome.

At this time, one of the women sitting together on the other side whispered: "Hey, have you heard about that thing?"

"What's going on?" The person next to him pricked up his ears.

"That's it, the matter between Old Man Zhu and Widow Qin."

Some people have heard about it, but some people have not heard about it and are busy asking someone.

This man had just become sour and envious of the Zhu family's use of a new plow. He turned around and began to gloat that such a "dirty person's ears" thing had happened to the Zhu family.

Humph! Who made the Zhu family be a little too proud during this period of time, selling fish, selling tofu, and now Quyuanli?

She wished that more such things would happen to the Zhu family so that she could have some balance in her mind.

"I heard it too, but I don't know if it's true. Don't go out and talk nonsense. If that happens, I won't say it."

"Oh, Auntie, don't you still know who we are? Tell us quickly, and we will make sure that if it gets into our ears, it won't spread out."

"Okay, then I'll say it."
