The menacing Xu Zuocheng and Xu Youcheng saw this scene, and their momentum was inexplicably suppressed by half, but the two had always been thick-skinned, and they had to hold out their aura when they were desperate.

Xu Zhao looked at the two of them calmly and said, "I'm here, what's the matter?"

"You stole Dawa's ice cream?" Xu Youcheng asked.

"Who said that?" Xu Zhao asked.

"Dad said it."

Xu Zhao did not rush to refute, but asked, "Where did Dawa get the ice cream?"

"Big baby—" Xu Youcheng couldn't answer, and couldn't help but look at Xu Zuocheng.

Xu Zuocheng hated Xu Zhaozheng's teeth after the morning, but he still acted like a big brother, looked at Xu Zhao and asked, "You said it's not the ice cream of Dawa, whose ice cream is it?"

Xu Zhao replied, "Mine."

"Where did you come from?"

"It's my classmate who sells ice cream." Xu Zhao said to Xu Zuocheng slowly.

"Then, as an elder, can't you give one to the junior?"

"only one."

"Can't it be divided equally?"

"No." Xu Zhao refused bluntly.

"Xu Zhao." Xu Zuocheng's patience with Xu Zhao had reached the limit, and he gritted his teeth and said, "Are you so ignorant?"

"What is sensible? Is it sensible to grab your little nephew's noodles?"

"Xu Zhao!" Xu Zuocheng finally couldn't help roaring.

Xu Zhao did not show weakness, although his voice was not loud, but his sentences were powerful: "From today onwards, I don't know what it means to be sensible, I only know that Xu Fan is my son, and as long as he doesn't do anything wrong, no one can touch him. If you don't believe me, you can try it! I don't care if you are a human or a ghost! Anyway, I am a person who died once!"

He died once, which means he almost drowned when he fell into the river three days ago. Everyone knows that, but Xu Zhao said it was especially scary. Even Xu Zuocheng and Xu Youcheng wondered if Xu Zhao was haunted by evil spirits. , or else the temperament that used to be rounded and flattened, why did it suddenly become tough?

Are there really ghosts?

Xu Zuocheng and Xu Youcheng were speechless for a while.

Xu Zhao looked at Xu Dawa and said, "Let me see you rob Xu Fan next time, I can't get around you!"

Xu Dawa hides behind Xu Zuocheng in a guilty conscience.

Xu Erwa, who was not named, saw that Cheng Xu Zhao was not bullied and was beaten down by Xu Zhao. She was afraid of being beaten by Xu Youcheng, so she quickly ran away.

"Erwa, where are you going?" Xu Dawa called softly.

Xu Erwa ignored Xu Dawa and ran away quickly.

When Xu Dawa saw that Xu Erwa ran away, she was afraid of being beaten by Xu Zuocheng.

Xu Zuocheng and Xu Youcheng turned their heads, the two children were gone, how could they find trouble?

Xu Zhao looked at the two and asked, "Is there anything else?"

Xu Youcheng can't be angry.

Xu Zuocheng turned his head and left the courtyard.

Xu Zhao stood there, watching Xu Zuocheng and Xu Youcheng without saying a word of guilt or apology, and he didn't expect them to educate Xu Dawa and Xu Erwa. As long as he stayed here for a day, there must be something like this. There will be more days to come. Now everyone is busy with farming. When the time is over, Xu Zuocheng and Xu Youcheng’s family may make trouble. At that time, he may not be able to resist, he must take care of himself. Become stronger, otherwise life will be more difficult in the future, and this time it strengthens Xu Zhao's determination to go out.

He stood at the door for a while to calm himself down. He turned around and entered the hut, and saw the little Xu Fan on the bed.

Xu Fan had already finished eating the ice cream, and was instigating his fingers one by one with relish. Although he was a little cute, he really couldn't bear to look directly at him. Ice cream could be so greedy.

Xu Zhao shouted helplessly, "Xu Fan."

Xu Fan raised his eyes and shouted, "Dad."

"Are your hands dirty?"

Xu Fan smiled and said, "Dirty."

"Dirty, are you still instigating?"

"Sweet, so sweet." Xu Fan stretched out his little hand to Xu Zhao and said, "Dad, try it."

"I think you are dirty."

Xu Zhao smiled and carried Xu Fan out of bed, washed his hands, and before it was dark, he borrowed the ox cart from the big dealer, pulled the wheat back, and piled it in front of the hut.

The next morning, when the Xu family went to the ground to dispose of their common food, Xu Zhao spread his own wheat in the yard to dry. Taking advantage of the scorching sun, he tidied up the inside and outside of the thatched hut again. The pen, and a lot of books, but it was too wet, so he put the pen and paper in the sun to dry.

Then he took a free book and read it, but he couldn't read it. He had something in his heart, which was about selling popsicles. This season, selling popsicles is very profitable, but he has no cost, not a dime. See, where are you going to get the money?

Xu's father and Xu's mother heard that the original Xu Zhao's uncle was ill before the wheat was harvested. The original Xu Zhao's uncle was so heartfelt to the Xu family. In the 1960s, the original Xu Zhao's uncle had mixed wheat in a bowl. The Xu family estimated that half of their cornmeal would starve to death, so as soon as they heard that Uncle Xu Zhao was sick, Xu’s father and Xu’s mother hurried to visit and helped to cut the wheat by the way. Father and mother come back with no money, right?

It was even more impossible for Xu Zhao to borrow money from Xu Zuocheng and Xu Youcheng. When he was depressed, he heard someone shout, "Is Xu Zhao at home?"

"Who? Who called my father?"

Xu Zhao had just stood up, but Xu Fan had already stepped on his short legs and quickly ran to the gate of the courtyard. When Xu Fan asked, Xu Zhao could clearly see that the person was Uncle Zhang and Aunt Zhang from the village.

"Uncle Zhang, Aunt Zhang, are you looking for me?" Xu Zhao walked over and opened the courtyard door.

"Yes." Uncle Zhang asked with a smile.

"Come in and sit, what's the matter?"

Aunt Zhang smiled and said, "After thinking about it, you are the only scholar in the whole village, and the village chief is not good enough, so I ask you for a favor."

"What are you busy with? You said."

Aunt Zhang took a photo of Uncle Zhang.

Only then did Uncle Zhang take out a letter from the pocket of his tunic shirt and said, "I'll let you read the letter."

"Whose letter?"

"My son's."

"Okay, I'll read it to you."

Aunt Zhang happily patted Uncle Zhang on the shoulder and whispered, "Just tell you, Xu Zhao is sure to do it, and he is definitely willing to help us."

Uncle Zhang said, "Don't make a sound, listen to me!"

Aunt Zhang immediately fell silent.

Xu Zhao took the kraft paper envelope, unfolded the standard red striped letter paper, looked at the neat font, and began to read it word by word to Uncle Zhang and Aunt Zhang. The son of Uncle Zhang's son was a rare cultural person in the village. After graduating from junior high school, I wanted to go out and have a look, so I went to Guangzhou to develop, and the development was not bad. I especially sent 50 yuan through the post office.

Unexpectedly, the son of Uncle Zhang and Aunt Zhang was quite advanced and became the first batch of migrant workers.

"Is he doing well?" Aunt Zhang asked.

"Yeah, you can eat meat every three to five." Xu Zhao said.

"It's good to be able to eat meat, and it's good to be able to eat meat." Uncle Zhang and Aunt Zhang said together.

Because they read the letter to them, Uncle Zhang and Aunt Zhang saw that Xu Zhao was very kind, not as bad as the rumors from outside, so they couldn't help but chat with Xu Zhao a few more words, I heard that Xu Zhao could help write a reply, and the second old man even more He couldn't help but took Xu Zhao to ask him warmly, and took out two big white rabbit toffee from his trouser pocket for Xu Fan to eat, and then asked Xu Zhao how the wheat harvest was. Last year's harvest was not good. They are getting old and can't grow the land. If they want to buy food, they have to go out of town to buy food. This year, they may even go out to buy some.

As soon as Xu Zhao heard it, he suddenly thought about the money issue that he was most worried about these two days, and immediately said, "Uncle Zhang, I can sell you some of my wheat."

"Yours?" Uncle Zhang and Aunt Zhang asked at the same time.

"Well, my wheat is sold to you." Xu Zhao said.

"How much wheat did you harvest this year?"

"More than one hundred pounds." Xu Zhao said.

"It's only over a hundred pounds, that's not enough for you and Xu Fan." Aunt Zhang said.

"I have another way." Xu Zhao said, "Aunt Zhang, if you need it, I can sell it to you for 60 to 70 catties. If you want it later, I will go out to help you bring it."

"real?"

"Ok."

"But I'm afraid you won't have enough to eat. You will have to pay the public food in a few days."

"Enough, don't worry, since I am willing to sell, there must be other ways."

Uncle Zhang and Aunt Zhang glanced at each other, thinking about the bumper harvest this year, and the fact that there are quite a lot of people in the Xu family, so they thought it was feasible.

"That's fine, I'll buy 60 catties from you first, and if you have any difficulties, I'll come back to my uncle and aunt."

"good."

"So what's the price?"

"I listen to you." Xu Zhao said.

Uncle Zhang thought for a while, and said, "In previous years, wheat was 1.341 jin, and this year is estimated to be about the same. In this way, I will give you 1.51 jin, and you can help us write two more letters to my son. ."

Xu Zhao smiled and said, "It's okay to write a letter, but the price will be 13 cents."

"That won't work, I can't let you suffer."

"No loss, this is new wheat, there is water in it, it may shrink in two days, and there will be no more than 60 pounds."

"Who said that, I see that you have been in the sun for a day, so you will pay 15 cents."

Uncle Zhang and Aunt Zhang became stubborn, but Xu Zhao really couldn't handle it, so in the end he had to obey Uncle Zhang and Aunt Zhang.

With such an agreement, Aunt Zhang immediately took out the money, took out a rolled up handkerchief from her trousers pocket, and peeled the handkerchief apart little by little. Inside was a roll of banknotes with denominations of two yuan, one yuan, fifty cents, two cents, and one cent. Aunt Zhang and Uncle Zhang carefully counted nine dollars and handed them to Xu Zhao.

Xu Zhao took it with a smile.

This scene happened to be seen by Xu Dawa and Xu Erwa who had just returned. Xu Dawa immediately took Xu Erwa and ran into the field, ran to Xu Zuocheng and said, "Dad, the third uncle sold our wheat!"

"What?" Xu Zuocheng asked in surprise.
