Good Farming in Spring - C48
When he thought of these two people who had tried to rob him before and now wanted to send him home, he had a very bad feeling. They wouldn’t want to know the address of his home, so they would come knocking on his door in the future, or rather, they would come knocking on his door this time.
Originally, it was fine if he was the only one in the family, but other than a living person, there was nothing else to fear. However, with Lin Chunnuan’s family, other than a woman, she was also a child.
However, the more Ming Zi thought about the things that happened before, the more he wanted to change the way he thought about Dou Wang. A person who was able to be friends with Great cheetah, that was simply too amazing.
He thought that by scaring these people, they would give in to him and he would be able to do proper business to support his family and himself, but no one wanted to associate with him, no one wanted to engage in serious business with him, they just seemed to give in, and inside they were eating his flesh and peeling his skin.
Therefore, he still either swindled or robbed those three or five pieces of gold every day, in order to ensure that his mother would have enough to eat and drink, and every once in a while, he would have to make a huge sum of money. This was because his mother still needed to eat and drink medicine, and his father also needed to drink medicine, all of this required money, and since no one had a proper business with him, they could only continue to do this kind of meaningless business.
Since he couldn’t return to his original path, he would just muddle along like this for the rest of his life. After all, he could deal with his mother after she had passed away, but that little desire for light in his heart had almost been wiped clean by his life.
To be honest, he was not willing to give up. As long as there was another way of living, he wouldn’t want to live in his current state, but if he didn’t have to live like this, he would have died long ago. This was a contradiction that he would never be able to solve in his entire life.
However, just as he was about to lose his last bit of justice, he met Dou Wang Ming. This man was young and very smart, but when he was chased down by his group, he did not panic, nor did he give up. Instead, he thought of all sorts of ways to protect himself.
If he had been able to hold on when others were slandering him and criticizing him, would he have been able to obtain a fair and square opportunity to live on in exchange? Unfortunately, there was no such thing as a chance to live again, or a chance to live again, so he could only make one mistake after another.
What made Ming Zi most grateful was that after the Great cheetah appeared, Dou Wang did not take the opportunity to take revenge on them just because he had such a powerful helper. He only asked him to help him take back the big pot and then released them faithfully.
He did not use the Great cheetah’s power to bully others, and did not become complacent because he had become stronger. Instead, after he had obtained the big pot, he casually fulfilled his promise and waved his group away.
This was so different from what he had done before. Only someone like him could live a fair and square life. Even if he was exposed to the sun, he would still be able to support himself. It was as if he was on the verge of rotting and living in a dark corner.
“Little brother, I assure you, I will safely send you home, absolutely without any ulterior motives. I just want to thank you for saving the lives of five of us last time, and also for using actual actions to express our apologies. We shouldn’t have any ill intentions towards you.”
However, Lin Chunnuan’s heart stirred. When she was at the cloth farm, she had heard this person say that the words he said before did not count, and the cloth farm’s staff did not refute him either. It seemed that although he did not have a good relationship with people, she was a person who kept her word.
“Fine, then I’ll thank aconitine, how about this, I can’t let you and this big brother work for nothing, since Wangzhige and I are going to hire a car to take things home, I’ll hire your car, when the time comes we’ll pay for it, and we’ll recognize each other as our friends.”
Mingzi didn’t think that the little girl beside him would be so straightforward. She probably didn’t know about the events from last time, but no matter what, being able to send her off made him feel more at ease.
“What do you mean money? Beans, load up the car. We’ll be leaving now.”
The two men did not need Dou Wang’s help as well, quickly loading the things onto the cart and tying them up. Then, they pushed the two-wheeled cart towards Reliance Village, even putting the bamboo tubes on the cart. Dou Wang was actually quite relaxed, but he was unwilling to part with the package that contained the money, and Mingzi did not force him either, knowing that it was definitely something important.
When they reached the woods, it was already noon. Dou Wang took out the cornmeal pot paste he had brought from the teahouse as well as the small side dish that Little Stone had specially brought.
“Brothers, let’s stop and rest for a while and eat something first. There aren’t many pancakes, so let’s have a pancake for our stomachs.”
Although Little Rock had given him a lot of pot paste, it was still a gift for the two of them to pretend to be together. He was still two children, so bringing along six pot paste and two men was definitely not enough for him to eat.
“Hey, aconitine, there’s two of you and one of me.”
Although aconitine and Soybean were still pushing their cart, they were still two adults. Dou Wang did not want to let them eat too little, so he wanted to hurry back to his house, and when he reached home, he would get some food for Chun Wen. With a pancake as a cushion, he should be able to persevere on his way home.
“No need, no need. We can have one each.”
With one glance, he could tell that they were very fond of him. How could Ming Zi steal their lunch? It would be fine if they only had a cushion to support their stomachs. It was normal for them to go hungry and freeze over, not to mention that they didn’t have any food to eat, just a little less.
I and the Wangzhige are young, so we don’t have to work. We just need to eat to fill up for a bit, and furthermore, we will be home in half a way. We will definitely have something to eat once we return home, aconitine, Soybean, don’t decline.
Lin Chunnuan stuffed the four pot paste s into the hands of two people separately. After peeling off some thin branches, she gave them to everyone to use as chopsticks, but she had forgotten that there were new chopsticks on the carriage, there was no need, they were also used like chopsticks, they were all the children of poor families, no one would pick them out.
After taking care of the lunch, the few of them continued on their way. On the way, Mingzi started chatting, and when he heard about Dou Wang’s good encounters, he felt even worse. Compared to Dou Wang, he still had his mother, and his father had passed away when he was already eleven or twelve years old.
“Since you’re only five years old and no one cares about you, and you’ve raised yourself so well, I really feel like I’ve lived for nothing. It’s just that the people in this town are very powerful, and at that time you’ll be bullied and mocked no matter what you do.
We also do not wish to live such a life. On the surface, it seems quite glorious, and anyone who sees us will be afraid. In fact, we ourselves know that in the hearts of those people, we are nothing more than mice crossing the street.
If he could, he would really be able to help aconitine and the rest in the future. However, with his current condition, he couldn’t even handle it, so how could he help others? No one knows better than anyone. This is the truth of life.
