52 The Living Body
The house where Lu Li and his friends lived was originally from a merchant family. They were very enthusiastic and kind. There were two boys in the family, one was thirteen and the other nine years old. They didn’t go to school all day long and helped the family do some work within their ability. During the slack farm, they would play around everywhere. Most of the houses provided by the educated youth site were the same, with two insides and outside, a stove outside, and a kang outside. Put the luggage you carry with you on and lay the bedding on it. This is considered to be the place.
"Why are we brothers? Didn't we say there are hundreds of educated youth here?" This was the first time Xu Yunjian and Lu Li saw the kang, took off their shoes and went out of the kang, and looked out through the glass, "Why no one came to greet us?"
"Who do you... think you are? And welcoming you?"
"No, Xiaoxiao, I heard that every time a new educated youth comes, others will welcome you." Xu Yunjian first arrived in Guidi and felt everything was fresh. He lifted the lid of the pot on the large tank to see that it was water. There was a half-cut gourd floating on the water surface. "Xiaoxiao, what is this?"
"Shui...sweet?" Lu Li didn't know it, but he could guess, and, moreover, such things were mentioned in Haoran's "Golden Avenue", so he guessed it right, "How fun? What's this for?" He scooped a scoop of water with a scoop of water, "Hey, Xiaoxiao, the water is cold, it's so cool! Where did this water come from?"
Lu Li ignored him, went downstairs and put on his shoes, walked to the yard. The landlord's house was the landlord's house through a fence wall. The woman was sitting on the ground, holding two corn cobs in her hand, rubbing each other, and the corn kernels were twisted down one by one and landing at her feet. The sky was full of flying flies - corn was rich in starch and had a bit of sweetness, which was the love of flies! It was the first time he saw people doing farm work, and his eyes widened curiously.
"Is it a new educated youth?" Aunt Shang noticed the strange boy, "What's your surname?"
"Lu, Lu...Lululi."
"I'm sorry, why are you still stuttering?" Aunt Shang put down the corn, stood in front of the fence, and looked at him up close, "Well, he is a pretty young man. Come here to help the aunt work and have dinner at her house at night."
"Oh." For some reason, Luli was sincerely filled with good feelings for the woman who was not polite at all. She walked around from the direction of the courtyard gate, entered the other party's courtyard, and squatted in front of her, "This way..."
Luli looked at it for a while and soon learned it. Just as he was about to operate it, an animal suddenly appeared beside him. He turned around and screamed softly. He didn't know what it was. His fat body, his long neck, and he screamed quackly. Seeing him get up, the animal stretched his neck and pecked on his calves, "Oh!"
Lu Li screamed! It hurts so much! He suddenly knew that this was a goose! There were people in the countryside who used this thing to come to protect the house, but they didn't expect it to be so powerful. The calves were twisted by its giant beak and hurt. They squatted down and rubbed them hard. When they looked at Aunt Shang, they were already smiling, "Get out, get out!" She coaxed the big goose away and said to Lu Li with a smile: "It's okay, I have to give it a piece for the first time."
The big goose crowed a few times and walked away with a stupid step. Lu Li squatted down next to Aunt Shang again, took two corns, pushed them with her palms, and rubbed them with each other, but everything was easy to know and hard to do. In less than ten minutes, he felt a little sore and swollen in his arms, which made him very annoyed: You waste! You can do it as a woman, why can't you?
Lin Fanxiu's call came from outside the door. Xu Yunjian jumped out in one step and said a few words to him, "Xiaoxiao, go swimming?"
Luli is seventeen years old and can't swim! He dares to try things around him, only swimming. Every time he gets into the water, he is like a lead duck, and when will he sink to the end! He is also very distressed, but he can't imagine, so he has to forget, "You... go... right?"
Xu Yunjian knew that he could not swim, and did not force him to wave his hand to his companion and whistled away.
While busy with his own affairs, Aunt Shang watched his work, this child was quite obedient and willing to work. He had seen many educated youths who came here on the first day. It was July of the lunar calendar, and the village was next to the river. None of the young men and girls from the city had been playing enough and started working after making enough trouble. There was no need to consider how their working condition was? This kid was good and solid enough! "Are you tired? Just take a break when you are tired."
"No... tired." Luli raised his arm, wiped the beads of sweat from his forehead, and forced himself to answer.
Aunt Shang stopped talking, as if she was trying to hone him on purpose, lowered her head and became busy.
Lu Li felt a little regretful. People said that you would take a break if you want to take a break. It was a silly thing! But this also aroused his stubbornness. Isn’t it just to do some work? Can you still be exhausted? It depends on how long you can do it, and I will do it for as long as you can!
Two of the two, ones that were not very familiar, started working in a competition nature. Seeing that there were fewer and fewer corn cobs placed together, Lu Li was really unable to bear it anymore. Fortunately, Aunt Shang might not be relaxed, so she finally threw down one of the ones that were twisted halfway and stood up, "Okay, I'm exhausted! Let's get to this day?"
Lu Liru received a general amnesty. She squatted with her legs for too long, and she had no feeling at all! She didn't stand firm and fell into the corn pile, causing Aunt Shang to chuckle!
"You... are you laughing...what are you?" Luli turned over and looked at her with a wry smile.
"You young man, you are really good, yes, yes, yes! Wait a while and wash your hands and come over, and the aunt will give you Bao Suhezi a meal."
Lu Li turned back to his yard, took a scoop of water, drank it hard, and saw that there was not much water in the tank. He looked in the room and there was no tap water pipe. Where did the water come from? He went out and asked Aunt Shang through the fence wall. The latter laughed, "San'er? Miss San'er? Take your educated youth brother to fetch water!"
A little boy from the businessman ran out with a smile, and pulled out two buckets and a shoulder pole behind the door, leading Lu Li out to travel quickly. More than a hundred meters away, it was a well. There were as many such wells in the village as there were as many as three or five, which was the closest to the educated youth site where they were.
Luli looked inside, it was so deep that the water surface could not be seen from the wellhead; there was a wheel handle on the well, and a steel bucket was tied with a hemp rope, hanging by the well. The little Saner skillfully picked up the bucket and threw it inward. The wheel handle quickly turned, and with a thud, the bucket was at the end.
The little Saner skillfully pulled the rope, shook his arm, and put it down again. From the weight, he could tell that the water had been filled and began to turn the shaking handle. When the bucket was lifted up again, Lu Li also knew about it, picked up the bucket and poured it into his own bucket. As such, the two iron buckets were filled several times.
"Come on, I'll teach you." The little San'er hangs the iron barrel with the iron hooks at both ends of the shoulder pole. Lu Li stood obediently in the middle, thrusting his waist up, and stood up. He didn't feel anything when he looked at it. When the shoulder pole was on his body, he realized that there was no easy task in the countryside!
The bucket was not very heavy, but he was a newcomer and didn't know how to use his arms to reduce the strength on his shoulders. He didn't know that the more this was, the more difficult and the more difficult it was. Moreover, in this way, the weight was not easy to be even. He walked shaking and even found an abnormality himself. When he got home, both buckets of water were almost spilled.
The little Saner chuckled and turned to talk to his mother. After a while, the laughter of the mother and son came clearly. Lu Li knew that they were laughing at him and was helpless. He secretly made up his mind to learn the farm work in these fields in the shortest time!

Xu Yunjian returned with a wet body. The water quality of Luan River is excellent and the flow is abundant. It is more than higher than the Haihe River in Tianjin. What's more important is that it has never been polluted and the water is very clean. Even if you just drink it like this, you don't have to worry about having a stomachache. "Xiaoxiao? You didn't go with me, it's so comfortable. Xiaoxiao? Where is Xiaoxiao?"
Lu Li held a large plate of coarse porcelain with three squids inside. The outside was barbecue and the inside was rugua. This was really a veritable 'squid'. It couldn't even see a little oily, but hungry people were easy to eat, so he couldn't stop eating. On the low table next to it was a big bowl with spinach and soybean curd noodles porridge. Hearing Xu Yunjian's call, Lu Li stood up and waved to his companion, "Woooooo... this!"
"What are you eating? Give me some, I'm starving to death." Xu Yunjian shouted as he entered the yard, shouting, "Oh, it hurts me so much! What's this thing?"
Lu Li smiled so hard that he fell back and forth! The big goose was really powerful. As long as someone came, he would rush over without hesitation and use his unique lip skills on the legs of the visitor. However, the goose didn't look big, but it was not small. Xu Yunjian made him scream. He had to wait until the children of Mrs. Shang's family came over and drove the big goose away, and it was fine.
"Wait, I'll give it to you..."
"Stay!" Aunt Shang straightened up from the front of the pot, "Have you worked? Didn't you do it? Are you hungry!"
The two little girls were stunned, and Luli was also a little stupid, "Big...mother..."
"What's the big one? You don't want to eat if you don't work? You Tianjin Wei has such rules. I don't have that! If you want to eat, make it yourself!" Aunt Shang pointed to the water tank with her hand, "Go, pick up the water tank and eat before you eat."
How could Xu Yunjian carry water? He didn't even know where the well platform was. He looked at Lu Li pitifully, "Xiao Xiao..."
Lu Li felt helpless. He knew that Aunt Shang's words were not wrong, and he felt sorry for his companions, so he winked at him, "Come on?" He picked up the bucket and shoulder pole and walked into the dusk.
He took Xu Yunjian to the edge of the well platform to fetch water, and helped him pick him up to the door. He asked him to carry the remaining distance. As soon as he entered the door, he heard Aunt Shang scolding. She seemed to have guessed this kind of cheating behavior, "Is he your father or your son? He just spoiled him so much? Sooner or later, the day you regret it!"
Lu Li smiled a little and poured the water into the tank, pulling Xu Yunjian, "Auntie... This... is Xu Yunjian, I... I, I, my brother, let him eat it?"
"Learn from Xiao Lu, don't think about playing all day long. Do you think this is coaxing you to eat on your Nini family's day? Your parents' Yue'er's day!"
"Oh." Xu Yun Jianru heard Lunyin, sat down in one step, picked up the vegetarian womb that Lu Li had not finished eating, and started chewing on it.
After dinner, Lu Li walked to Aunt Shang. The woman was busy with Su Xiezi until the four little guys finished eating. She sat down to have a meal, "Auntie, where is the uncle?"
"Aren't you, the young people, causing trouble? We fought all the time, and we followed us to the town."
"That fight seemed very fierce?"
"It's not that." The boy who called Xiaosan'er interjected, "The whole village has been moved, my grandfather has taken the people in person..." Aunt Shang raised her hand and gave her son a neck, "Stop talking." She said, "Anyway, it's quite awesome, and the educated youth have also moved and replaced it, and they have been injured more than 200 times."
"Then, why?"
