Chapter 2 Iron Head Goes to the Market

In the afternoon, the sun is not so poisonous.

The villagers in Daijia Village began to walk down to the fields one after another and began their afternoon work. They had to work quickly because the sun set quickly.

Tietou's family of six all work in the fields, including the naughty child who was playing in the water just now. His age is non-existent. The six, seven, and eight-year-olds are already able to work in the fields, but they can't do heavy work.

, Dazhu is fourteen years old this year, and it’s time to get married. Dai Tian has also begun to ask people to help find a wife. No matter what age you are, marrying a wife is a big expense for a family, so there is no need

Everyone is idle at home, including Little Tietou.

Tietou squatted there, struggling to pull out the weeds, and thinking about how to find an opportunity to go to the town. He accidentally used too much force and sat down on the ground. Sanhua saw it and made Sanhua very amused.

Laughing loudly, Sanhua's laughter also made several other people laugh.

Tietou stood up, patted the dirt on his butt, and grinned. Although he was the soul of a successful man, for the sake of his own life, he did not dare to be too independent.

"Oops," Dai Tian next to him exhaled softly.

Tietou turned around and saw that the weeding rake his wife was using was broken. The circle on the top of the rake's head was broken, and the wooden frame was also cracked.

I heard my mother say in annoyance: "It seems that this thing has been used up, but it is not easy to last more than two years."

"Dad, go back to town and buy another one, and go to Lao Wangtou's house. I bought this one from his house. It's quite durable. Let Lao Wangtou give you a cheaper price when you buy it."

Dai Tian turned to Dai Niu and said.

Dai Niu nodded and said: "Yes, I understand. I plan to go to town tomorrow to make a fortune, and the salt at home seems to be running out. I will buy some more salt this time."

Hearing this, Tietou's eyes lit up and he thought, "Dad, Dad, I'm going too, I'm going too."

After hearing this, the father waved his hand and said angrily: "What are you going to do, you little bastard? All you know is running around and having fun. Tomorrow you will be at home helping work in the fields. Don't think about being lazy."

In this family, as the head of the household, Dai Niu can be said to be the top leader in the family. He basically has the final say.

After hearing this, Tietou looked at the sun, made some mental calculations, and was not in a hurry to refute immediately, saying that he had to go or something like that. It was even more impossible for him to behave like a fool. First of all, as an adult, his soul would not allow him to do this.

Do it, and children who can cry will be fed by milk. I am talking about modern times. At this time in ancient times, you could get married at the age of thirteen or fourteen. If you dared to cry in front of your father when you were eight years old, you must understand your father's character.

Tietou knew that the only guarantee that would greet him was a freshly broken weeding rake stick.

Not long after working, the sun was approaching, so the family packed up their things and went home.

The sunset dyed half of the sky red. It was really beautiful. Tietou looked at it and felt a little funny. Although it was not the first time to see it, he still thought of the sunset he saw on the mountain in his previous life. Although it was the same

At sunset, the scenery is completely different.

I have passed through my mind several poems that fit the occasion. Although I cannot say them out, I can still talk about them to comfort them.

"Tietou, what are you looking at? There's something interesting in the sky. Why don't you go home quickly? Don't worry, the devil will catch you when it gets dark." Dai Tian stood on the edge of the field and shouted at the top of his lungs.

The artistic conception was instantly destroyed, and Tietou sighed.

"Come here, come here" and trotted towards the end of the field.

On the field ridge, there are villagers in twos and threes. When they see each other, they will chat a few words. The relationship between the people in the village is quite good. There are no evil landlords, and there is no situation of second-generation dudes walking birds, playing with dogs, and bullying others. Although some people have well-off families.

There are some, but they are limited. After all, they are all digging in the ground, so who can be better than the other.

Tietou walked among the crowd, muttering to himself, but he heard his father mentioned when chatting with the villagers that all the land of the villagers in Daijia Village was named in the name of a big landlord, which exempted them from taxes, but every year

To pay the grain, it seems that this big landowner has an unusual background. Dad really can’t tell who the big landowner is. He only knows that he is a wealthy family in the county.

After arriving home, taking advantage of the afterglow of the sun, Dai Tian hurriedly cooked and made Sanhua a fire.

The meal is very simple, including porridge made from grains and wild vegetables, a few pieces of hard bread for lunch, and a bowl of pickles. The food is not good enough, but fortunately it is full, and Tietou does not mind it. This thing is healthy in modern times.

The food is still expensive, but the oil and water are a bit low.

While Tietou was eating, he looked longingly at the coarse porcelain bowl in front of his father. The bowl contained some turbid grain wine, and there was only half a bowl. To be honest, he really wanted to taste what the ancient wine tasted like. But it was just that.

Come to think of it, it probably won't work.

I was very tired during the busy farming season. Many families in the village would drink some wine to relieve their fatigue during meals. Although ancient materials were scarce, they were not unimaginably poor.

While he was talking, the wine bowl in front of my father was all the way down, and he looked a little drunk.

To be honest, when Tietou watched it for the first time, I was a little confused. It was only half a bowl of grain wine. I thought the alcohol content should not be high. Why is my cheap dad so drunk? After watching it a few times, I got used to it.

, I thought that my father must have the kind of body that can pour the cup immediately.

I have been waiting for a long time for this moment.

While Tietou was picking up the porridge in the bowl, he proudly said to his mother, "Mom, when we were playing by the river today, Ergou said that my Tietou name was good." Ergou is the son of Uncle Fortune.

I didn't speak yet, I just heard a "bang" sound.

The old man blushed and picked up the chopsticks that he had just knocked off the table. With a hint of drunkenness, his face was full of pride, "That's right. I don't even look at him when he fell asleep. Can you name the name he gave you when he got rich?"

Tietou also had a proud look on his face, and complimented him by the way: "Dad is so awesome. If you go to school, you will be the material for the number one scholar."

Dad's face turned even redder. Although he was a little embarrassed, he straightened his back three points and grinned happily.

"That's it..." Tietou hesitated.

Dad looked at it and said, "Why are you hesitating? Tell me quickly."

"It's easy for other kids to say, what's so great about having such a good name? He's not even lived in a small town and hasn't seen the world," Tietou said hesitantly.

"Dad, they said it didn't matter to me, but they actually laughed at you for just giving me a name. Tietou is still a little boy who has never seen the world. He even showed me off the mountains at the west end of the village. Last month his father took him to the town.

Come on, there are a lot of people in this town and a lot of new things." Tietou looked angrily.

"boom"

"Quiet, stop talking. Come with me to the town tomorrow and shut the mouths of those boys." The old man said in a drunken tone.

"Okay, it's up to you, Dad," Tietou grinned.



The next day, just after dawn, Tietou and his father were already ready and dressed neatly. They couldn't be embarrassed when they went out.

After going out, I saw Uncle Fa Cai just going out, followed by someone other than Ergou. This boy looked excited and emotional. This boy has never been to the town. Last night, he knew that Tietou was going to go, and Wolverine was going to go.

In the end, after a few blows, Uncle Fa Cai couldn't resist him, so he agreed.

After all, farming is busy now.

"Tietou, Tietou, we are going to town today." Ergou looked excited.

"Yeah," Tietou said, feeling somewhat hopeful in his heart.

Dad looked at the sun and said, "Hurry up, otherwise it will be too late."
