Today's May farming season in Sichuan is busy. It's not the same as in Xu Zhengyang's childhood memories...
At that time, the farming season in May was very long. Wheat was harvested manually with sickles, and then a machine driven by a diesel engine was used to separate the wheat from fine grains, dry the wheat, and remove debris. But this work of harvesting wheat
After working hard, half a month has passed, and then we have to plow, level, water, raise and transplant seedlings.
Nowadays, the busy farming season in May is much easier. When the combine harvester hits the ground, it comes roaring down several times. In less than half an hour, the family's few acres of land are finished. The farmer just blows it clean.
The clean wheat is packed into bags and brought back to dry in the sun.
So in fact, farming is busy in May today. It is only busier in mid-to-late May when rice is transplanted.
With the current conditions of Xu Zhengyang's family, there is no need to do anything in the fields. But since Yuan Suqin and Xu Neng are happy to work in the fields, what can their son Xu Zhengyang do? He can't do it in this regard.
His parents were busy in the fields, and he went to Zehe City Jinghui Logistics Company or an antique store to work as a hands-off shopkeeper, where he could play and chat leisurely or drink water when he saw it?
Okay, just pretend to be cool and keep a low profile. Isn’t this popular nowadays?
Xu Zhengyang, who has just passed the rookie stage on the Internet, has already understood some of the popular "fashions" on the Internet.
So one morning when the clouds were clear and the sun was rising, he was very approachable and did not forget his roots. He drove up the embankment of the Ze River in the south of the village. He parked the car on the embankment, and then
After getting off the car, carrying a small horse, wearing trousers, slippers and a vest, I walked down the river embankment and went to the seedling pond to help my parents raise seedlings.
Xu Zhengyang could tell from the eyes of the villagers who were busy picking up seedlings in the surrounding seedling ponds, sitting on small horses or stools placed in the water, that they were a little surprised.
Xu Zhengyang felt a little proud about this, it felt very good.
This guy is addicted to pretending, which is a bit blatant.
However, no villager would criticize him for pretending to be an idiot. When people chatted together, they would only praise, praise, and be grateful to Xu Zhengyang. In fact, if it were others who did this, there would inevitably be people in the village who
Those with a villain mentality secretly slandered and criticized Xu Zhengyang. The reason why no one looks at Xu Zhengyang in this way is that this guy's identity is on display here.
Yes, who doesn’t know how severe the punishment was for those who spread the rumors last year after the scandal that caused people to get pregnant in the village? Secondly, the people in the village are really grateful to Xu Zhengyang. This child is indeed sincere.
Don’t forget your roots with money. A few days ago, the villagers learned that Xu Zhengyang wanted to invest alone to renovate the village’s primary school and build it into a two-story building.
Xu Zhengyang's family is not the only one with such strength in the village, but who has thought about making some contribution to the village?
No,"
People in the village will not blame the rich people for this. After all, no one's money comes from the gossip, right? People have contributed money to do good things. They should be grateful and praised; if they don't contribute money to do good things, they can't blame anyone.
Not wrong.
Maybe that’s what Xu Zhengyang did.
This news came from Zhang Zhong and Chen An. It is said that when Xu Zhengyang talked to them about wanting to learn from the construction team, they had the following conversation:
"Dad, Uncle Zhang Zhong and Uncle Chen An, the entire campus including the courtyard walls will be renovated and the entire courtyard will be plastered with cement. How much will it cost?
The three people calculated it carefully, and Zhang Zhong said: "Including workers' wages, including decoration, desks and chairs, it costs at least 800,000!"
Chen Andao: "Don't talk nonsense. Zhengyang paid to build the school. What's the salary of the workers and the money his father earned? It's almost half a million."
"Ahem, that's true." Zhang Zhong sneered. As the former captain of the construction team, he was used to this calculation method, but he neglected that the construction team was originally owned by Xu Zhengyang's own father, and Xu Zhengyang paid to do good things for the village.
Son, as villagers of Shuanghe Village, they have the nerve to ask for wages?
Xu Zhengyang said with a smile: "There is a distinction between public and private matters. These are two different things. You still have to get the salary you deserve, and you still have to earn the money the construction team should earn. Even if my father returns the money he earned to me later, it's fine."
"
"Bastard," Xu Neng scolded him with a smile.
"I will pay one million." Xu Zhengyang raised his index finger and said seriously: "All the extra money will be used to improve the school's building quality.
The three of them were stunned, shocked and filled with emotion.
When the news came out, who among the villagers in Shuanghe Village was not convinced?
After hearing the news, Zhou Qingguo, secretary of the village party committee, personally came to confirm whether it was true. After getting confirmation from Xu Neng and Yuan Suqin, Zhou Qingguo immediately stated that the village committee would report to the village and report the situation to the east of Shuanghe Village.
Another piece of land will be allocated for the construction of a new school. This will eliminate the need to renovate the old school, will not affect students' classes, and will make the campus larger.
Han Dashan also came to the door and vowed that a new school would be built. He also concluded that his factory would provide all the cement products needed for Li Primary School free of charge.

Xu Zhengyang sat on the pony, feeling his calves being soaked by the cool water, and stepping on the soft soil under his feet. He bent over, stretched his hands under the water, and quickly pulled out the green seedlings.
out,
When there were more and more seedlings in his hand and he couldn't hold them anymore, he straightened up, put the seedlings together, and held the tips. Rinse off the mud at the roots and tie them into small pieces with two soaked straws.
Geng Mo was in the water next to him.
Villagers planting seedlings in the surrounding rice ponds were busy and chatting, and laughter and laughter floated in the sky above the rice pond; the south of the rice pond is adjacent to the Ze River. The water flows slowly, and the reeds on both sides are lush and green. Birds chirp happily.
Travel through it.
This is a beautiful and beautiful scenery.
After a while, Chen Chaojiang’s parents, Chen An, came down from the river embankment with stools, walked straight into the seedling pond, and greeted Xu Zhengyang’s parents with a smile:
"Our third team is not as early as your first team every year, so we are lagging behind.
"
While talking, the couple put down the small stools and started to plant seedlings.
Yuan Suqin said: "Hey, it's just such a small amount of work. Why do I have to bother you guys to come over and help with the work?"
"Being idle is also idle. It would be nice to have more helpers to clear things up as soon as possible."
"Okay, our family will be busy later. When your family is busy, you have to let me know three times."
"Why."
While they were talking here, Zhang Hao's parents walked down the river embankment, and then Han Dashan's wife and daughter-in-law,
After a while, more than 20 people were busy raising seedlings in the seedling pond of Xu Zhengyang's house.

Everyone was busy together and chatting enthusiastically. Xu Zhengyang would occasionally interject and chat a few words when being asked, but in most cases he would just smile and remain silent.
to listen to their conversation.
The villagers busy in the Yangtze Ponds on both sides also joined in their chatting.
Soon, the topic of the chat turned to the construction of a new school in the village. Naturally, it was inevitable to praise Xu Zhengyang and envy Xu Neng and Yuan Suqin for being so lucky to have such a good son.
.
Xu Zhengyang lowered his head in embarrassment and was busy, smiling innocently, but thinking in his heart: Look, can you do it without making money? Can you do it without money?
Yes, Xu Zhengyang has a kind heart and a disposition that wants to do good things for others. But in today's social environment, if you really want to do such a good deed in the limelight, you will inevitably be criticized. You can do it.
If you don't do good things well, you will be accused of being famous, or you will be embarrassed to show off, etc. So many times, it's not that many people don't want to do good things, but that people are fearful of others, and no one wants to have to stay in the same house after doing good things.
Your stomach feels wronged, right?
Xu Zhengyang took this into consideration, but he still chose to do this, and he would continue to do it in the future, doing many good people and good deeds.
Of course, doing good deeds is not about showing mercy, but doing it within reasonable circumstances.
How about it? Xu Zhengyang looks a bit like a great, bright and holy god?
But if people knew that when Xu Zhengyang was doing such good things, he was actually half-thinking that there would be no profit and he would not be able to afford it early. What would the people in the village think?
Well, that's right, that's why Xu Zhengyang doesn't care if someone makes shameless, despicable and jealous remarks, but insists on doing this kind of thing unswervingly, because he wants to accumulate merit.
For him now, he really doesn't care too much about money. Is he and his family short of money?
There is no shortage! Even when money is tight, you can just dig up a few treasures and exchange them for banknotes from Zheng Ronghua, the boss of Ronghua Group. The reason why he wants to work hard to make money in the world and make a lot of money is to
Doing a lot of things that are beneficial to others is equivalent to doing good things that are beneficial to yourself.
In the past, when answering Chen Chaojiang's question about his passion for making money, Xu Zhengyang said something like "It's hard to travel with money, but it's hard to make money to make a horse. If you're worried about the city, you can use wine to make an army. It's easy to do things if you have money."
Of course, the money must come from a reasonable source and not touch any trouble-prone areas.
For example, no one can raise any excessive doubts about the profits of antique stores and Jinghui Logistics Company.
As the sun rose, Xu Zhengyang rinsed his hands in the water, wiped them dry on his pants, took out a cigarette from his pocket, handed a few cigarettes to some uncles, talked and laughed, rested for a while, and
I also lit a cigarette, smoked it, chatted for a few words, and then, at the reminder of others, I turned my head and looked towards the river embankment.
On the embankment, behind his white Audi, there was a black Audi parked.
The pretty, dignified and elegant Li Bingjie, wearing a white short-sleeved collar, shirt and blue jeans, stood on the river embankment with a smile and looked at him.
Next to the Audi, the tall and burly Li Chengzhong stood there quietly, seemingly careless, but in fact he was watching all directions and listening in all directions, and did not pay too much attention to Xu Zhengyang.
Xu Zhengyang smiled and raised his right hand holding a cigarette, waved to Li Bingjie, then stood up and walked towards the river embankment.
Regarding Li Bingjie's appearance, Xu Zhengyang, his parents and the villagers were not surprised at all and instead watched and thought too much.
If Li Bingjie hadn't come to see Xu Zhengyang for a few days, maybe people in the village would discuss it privately and become more suspicious.
As the saying goes, habits become natural...
Well, habits become natural. If you don’t say a few words at the end of each chapter, it would be a bit unnatural.
