Chapter 40 Prejudice
"What's the matter, you say, I promise to do it for you."

Xiao Ergou put down his hoe, rolled up his sleeves and wiped the sweat from his forehead, and looked at Su Mu with confidence.

Since he came back from prison, people in the village looked down on him, didn't give him a good face at all, and didn't even say a word to him. Xiao Ergou was completely transparent in front of them.

On the contrary, Su Mu, who was in college, took the initiative to say hello to him and even gave him food. These kindnesses are all kept in his heart.

"It's okay. There are fruit trees planted on the mountain behind my house. They have already bloomed, and Mashan is about to bear fruit. I have to be busy delivering vegetables to the city every day, so I don't have time to prune them. I want you to help me prune the branches."

"Don't worry, I won't let you do it for nothing, just like other people, I will give you one hundred and fifty days."

Su Mu knew that Xiao Ergou had just returned and his life was very difficult. He happened to need help, so he took the initiative to find something for him to do.

Now I have to be busy delivering vegetables and growing vegetables, and I have to take the driver's license test, so I really don't have time.

"Hey, I thought it was such a big deal. Don't worry, I promise to take care of it for you. I can't do anything else. It's okay to trim branches. Don't talk to me about money or not. We are relatives and brothers. , that's all small things."

Xiao Ergou patted his chest after hearing this, and agreed with a sure face.

They all grew up in the village. Although Xiaoergou used to be lazy and lazy, pruning branches is really not a technical job. It is very simple to prune those small branches.

"That's not okay. I will definitely give you the money. In this way, if you have time, you can do it now. I will say hello to my second uncle and aunt. You will come back early to eat at his house at noon."

Su Mu knew that the little dog was loyal, but he was worth the money. He was asking him to do something, and he should be paid accordingly.

"You're out of touch now. It's only a big deal. I'll start working right away."

With something to do and food included, Xiao Ergou immediately put down his hoe and started to act.

Seeing that he was more anxious than himself, Su Mu was of course happy in his heart. The growth of the main trees does not wait for others, and if they are not pruned, they will grow taller and split.

Along the way, Su Mu explained to Xiao Ergou, told him exactly which places needed pruning, and went to the back mountain to demonstrate it to him.

Seeing that the little second dog started trimming in a decent manner, Su Mu came to the second uncle's house with peace of mind.

"What? You asked Xiao Ergou to prune fruit trees for you?"

Su Mu originally told the second aunt to let her cook more meals at noon, but when he heard that he actually asked the little dog to help pruning the fruit trees, Li Lanhua was immediately surprised.

"Little Su, you..."

"What do you want the second aunt to say about you? That little dog is not a good person. You can just stay away from him, but he still asks him to do something. He is a lazy guy who can do things well for you? You are not afraid of you. Is the money wasted?"

Li Lanhua's head and face were a lesson, and there was a hint of hatred in his tone.

For Xiao Ergou, people in the village are afraid to avoid it, but Su Mu is good, and he doesn't think about the consequences when doing things.

"Second Aunt, you're overthinking it. Brother Ergou has improved a lot since he went inside to transform it. When I went to find him, I saw him digging and growing vegetables in his private plot early in the morning."

"Pruning fruit trees doesn't require much skill. I've already taught him, and he does a pretty good job and works hard. Don't worry about that."

Su Mu knew that Second Aunt and the others were very prejudiced against people like Xiao Ergou. Even Su Mu had some grudges in his heart, but everything has two sides, and one cannot deny a person's future just because of his past.

"If you don't believe me, go and have a look in the field when he comes back for dinner at noon."

Su Mu also knew that he would not be able to persuade the second aunt for a while, and only Xiao Ergou himself could use practical actions to change people's prejudice against him.

After explaining to the second aunt, it was getting late, so Su Mu drove to the city on a motorcycle and pulled vegetables.

After weighing the vegetables to Lin Lan, Su Mu came to the examination room early and waited in line.

When he is free these days, Su Mu has been brushing up on the questions. Exams like subject one are actually not difficult for college graduates like Su Mu.

The content of the main test is very rigid, and the knowledge points are only those.

There were a lot of candidates, hundreds of them. Although the exam was very fast, Su Mu still waited until eleven o'clock to start the exam. Su Mu, who had an impression of the questions, did it quite smoothly.

It took only ten minutes for Su Mu to finish. He scored a total of 98 points in the test. Two questions were deliberately misplaced by Su Mu.

Because before coming to the exam, the coach specially explained that as long as you pass the exam, you must not get full marks in the exam, or you will be easily spot-checked. Although Su Mu is not afraid, he is afraid of delaying his time.

After the exam, Su Mu came out directly, without even printing out the transcript, and went home directly.

Because the coach said, he will take the report card himself, so there is no need to delay his time.

Looking at those who were still queuing up to print their results after the exam, Su Mu couldn't help feeling, hey, having money means doing things easily.

When Su Mu came back from the exam, it was already past twelve noon.

What he didn't expect was that Xiao Ergou didn't come back for lunch.

It's not that the second uncle and the second aunt didn't call him, but that he did, but he didn't come back.

Helpless, Su Mu had no choice but to send him the food.

Su Mu came to the back mountain with the meal, and saw the little dog climbing on the tree, pruning the branches of the fruit tree with scissors.

And the speed is quite fast, almost an acre of land was pruned in one morning.

"Brother Ergou, hurry up and come down to eat. You said that you are already here. If you don't eat, you can prune the branches slowly."

Seeing Xiao Ergou working so hard, Su Mu was also a little moved.

At first, Su Mu was afraid that he would be lazy because there was no one to supervise him, but he didn't expect it to be his villainous heart.

Xiao Ergou not only cuts fast, but also has good quality. Everything that should be trimmed is not removed, and what should not be trimmed is well protected.

"It's okay, I'm not hungry..."

While talking, Xiao Ergou wiped the sweat from his forehead.

"What time is it? I'm not hungry yet. I have to do work and eat more. Come down quickly and drink before eating."

Su Mu was quite satisfied with Xiao Ergou's performance, but he went too far, which made Su Mu a little unhappy.

Sometimes, there is no need to please others, not to mention that we are all relatives.

Under Su Mu's persuasion, Xiao Ergou still finished pruning a fruit tree before coming down.

"Come on, let's eat quickly. There are drinks here. Take two sips to quench your thirst."

As soon as the little dog came down, Su Mu hurriedly handed over the food and drinks.

This time, Xiao Ergou was not polite, opened the drink and drank it, and drank half of the bottle in one go.

"Su Mu, you are really amazing. I heard that your fruit tree has only been planted for more than ten days. I didn't expect it to grow so big so quickly, and some of them have begun to bear fruit."

"College students are college students. They understand science and are amazing."

The little Ergou kept giving Su Mu thumbs up while eating whole.

He used to look at Su Mu with admiration, and now he admires him even more. You can see that they are all of the same age, only a few months apart. Why is the gap so big?

"Brother Ergou has won the prize. I am lucky because I have a special potion. But Brother Ergou, I want to discuss something with you."

Su Mu said and looked at Xiao Ergou solemnly.
