Chapter 236 Harvest
"Brother Feng, can you all really continue your studies?" Wang Yun, a girl about the same age as Lu Feng, asked excitedly in disbelief.
"It's us. We can all go to school." Lu Feng corrected seriously.
He continued to say to Wang Yun: "Didn't you hear what Old Master Gu said? Men, women, old and young in the valley can all go to school and learn martial arts.
Sister Yun, don’t you always like to learn martial arts? The school will provide two meals a day, so you don’t have to take care of our three meals a day. This time you can study with peace of mind.”
Wang Yun nodded excitedly and said, "Well, I will definitely cherish this opportunity and study hard! Don't worry, Brother Feng, I will continue to take care of my younger brother and sister's lives."
"Well, I'll go with you. We should not only study hard, but also take good care of our younger brothers and sisters. After we finish our studies, we must repay the Gu family for their great kindness." Lu Feng said.
Wang Yun and the younger brothers and sisters below nodded one after another, "Brother, we will all cherish this opportunity, study hard, learn the skills, and help the Gu family in the future to repay the Gu family."
"Well, you are all good children who know how to repay your gratitude and have not disgraced our fathers." Lu Feng said with satisfaction.
……
That night, except for the Gu family, and Song Renjing and Duan Shuhuan who had already gone to school, everyone washed up and went to bed early after the banquet.
The other people in the valley tossed and turned in thought for half the night before falling asleep.
On the second day, the Gu family spent the whole morning harvesting fifty acres of mung beans.
For other families in the valley who followed suit in growing mung beans, Grandpa Gu sent a farmer to teach them how to harvest.
Because the crops were small, it usually took only one day to harvest them all, and the next step was to dry them in the sun.
In addition, several families who planted corn, potatoes, and sweet potatoes can also harvest them.
So, in the following period of time, Uncle Nong became the busiest person in the valley.
Every day, he would take the little monkeys to the fields and teach each family how to harvest the crops they planted.
When they saw the yield of several hundred kilograms, one thousand kilograms, or even several thousand kilograms per mu, they all cried with joy.
"The old man really didn't lie to us! The wheat yield per mu can really reach 1,000 kilograms, the soybeans can reach several hundred kilograms, and the sweet potatoes are more than 8,000 kilograms!" One person knelt on the ground excitedly, looked up to the sky and shouted in gratitude.
Someone nearby immediately said excitedly, "When has the Gu family ever lied to us? When has they ever failed to fulfill their promise? And they have completely considered us. This kind of heavenly life can only be found in the valley, and nowhere else in the world."
"Yes, yes, yes! From now on, I will do whatever the Gu family says. I will listen to the Gu family. I will listen to the Gu family in everything!" another person echoed.
"Listen to the Gu family and you will become rich!"
"Brother, your summary is brilliant, hahahaha! That's right, if you listen to the Gu family, you will become rich! From now on, I will only listen to the Gu family." One person said with a smile.
"Me too, me too. We all listen to the Gu family." Everyone echoed.
People are immersed in the joy of harvest.
Mr. Gu also brought his family over to see the output this time.
After looking at them one by one, he praised: "Not bad, not bad, although the land in our valley is fertile, it also depends on everyone's daily maintenance, so that the crops can grow so well.
Judging from the output, everyone is quite dedicated and will continue to work hard. In terms of food, we can already be self-sufficient. "Grandpa Gu said happily when he saw everyone's harvest.
"This is all thanks to the old man! Your Gu family is our great benefactor!
Not only did it save our lives, it also gave us a place to stay.
Now he has given us enough food to eat, made money, and taught us skills.
"Grandpa Gu, your Gu family is our great benefactor! Our adopted parents! Please accept our greetings." One person said excitedly, then knelt down.
He kowtowed.
Everyone in the valley knelt down excitedly.
Old Master Gu waved his hand and asked everyone to stand up. "Hey! Why are you doing this again? Didn't we tell you? Don't kneel down at every turn. We are ordinary people too. We can't bear your kneeling. Hurry up! Hurry up!"
The crowd remained motionless and continued to kowtow and kneel to express their gratitude.
“You don’t have to do this, we just provide the venue, seeds and methods, which are all basic help.
It still depends on our own efforts to live the life we have today.
The person you should thank the most is yourselves. "Mr. Gu said to everyone.
"Grandpa, we understand it in our hearts. You have devoted yourself to us. Your righteousness and vision are examples for us to learn from. If there is anything you need us to deal with in the future, just let us know!" one person said generously.
"Yes, old man. You are so generous to give us high-yield grain seeds and also allocate land for us to grow crops.
Now, not only are we allowed to study for free, but we are also provided with two meals a day. You are so kind to us!
We will definitely study hard and work hard to live up to your kindness, learn both literary and martial arts, and serve your family." One person expressed his loyalty.
"Yes, old man, from now on we are all yours. But if you need anything, we will be at your disposal by you and your family. We will never say no!" one person echoed loudly.
Mr. Gu smiled and waved his hand, saying to everyone: "What our family has done is really insignificant. Although we have knowledge and grain.
But you also need to be willing to work hard and study hard to have these.
After you learn this knowledge, you can also build your home better.
If I have spare time in the future, I will be able to spread this knowledge so that more people can learn it.
Then our Great Xia will surely prosper forever!
A strong country means a strong family!
When the country becomes strong, no matter where our homes are located in the future, they will be able to stand firmly between heaven and earth.
Learn literary and martial arts, and serve the emperor!
Everyone should study hard. In the future, the construction of Weng County, or even Daxia, may need your help. Everyone should work hard in the future."
"Don't worry, old man. We will cherish this opportunity and study hard. After we learn well, we will repay the Gu family and serve Daxia!"
"Repay the Gu family! Serve Da Xia!"
Everyone stood up excitedly and shouted in unison. For a moment, the scene was filled with passion and excitement.
Song Renjing was also deeply moved when he saw this scene.
Gu Jiadang is truly indifferent to fame and fortune, and is selfless and dedicated without asking for anything in return.
When establishing the school, he actually had the intention of providing talents for the imperial court.
The Gu family really is wholeheartedly devoted to Daxia!
In this way, after about half a month, the Gu family's thousand acres of wheat fields were ripe.
The Gu family used several tractors to quickly harvest thousands of acres of wheat fields.
By this time, all the grain had been harvested.
After the land has been cultivated for about a month, you can start the next round of sowing.
The Gu family’s school will also officially open at this time.
