Chapter 475 The Evil Mother-in-Law 21

“What kind of work?”

Ma Xiangdong asked impatiently.

Captain: "Herd cattle for three hours every morning and afternoon."

The job of herding cattle in the production team of Qinghe Village has always been done by the third uncle of the Ma family. , but he is getting old and his legs and feet are a little unable to keep up. Especially for cattle herding work, he has to go out even if it rains or thunders, and he is not allowed to rest for a day. The third uncle's body is a little overwhelmed. Recently, his grandson Maomao has been herding cattle for him.

Now that school has started, Maomao has to go to school and has no time to herd the cows.

In the past two days, Ma Wu, the third uncle's son, went to herd the cows, but the work points for herding cattle were low. Ma Wu, who earned ten work points a day, went to earn six work points, and no one in the Ma family was interested. willing.

In the past two days, the captain was thinking about whether to find someone else to take over this job.

This is also when sleepiness meets the pillow.

Coincidentally, the captain also wanted to help Ma Xiangdong.

After all, he lost his leg in order to protect his family and country. A great hero like this will be taken care of by the whole village no matter which village he is in.

So, the captain decided to give Ma Xiangdong the easy job of herding cattle.

Ma Xiangdong also feels that in his current situation, it would be good to herd cattle.

Although it is a bit inconvenient for him to go out when it is windy or rainy, as a disabled person, it is better than staying at home and being a waste.

Ma Xiangdong agreed immediately.

So, the captain took Ma Xiangdong and Yuan Chun to the third uncle's house.

The third uncle was very happy to learn that Ma Xiangdong was going to take over his job. He took Ma Xiangdong's hand and told him, "Xiangdong, those two cows are the biggest asset of our production team. You must Take good care of them and treat them like your own Treat them as well as your own children, don't let them get thin."

"Third uncle, don't worry, I will keep the two cows strong."

So. , Ma Xiangdong became a cowherd. However, when the weather is good, the horses will go east to herd the cows. But on rainy days, the road up the mountain will be slippery. If Yuanchun is worried about the horses going east, he will drive Ma Laoer to herd the cows for him.

Yuanchun saw that Ma Xiangdong couldn't stay idle at home, so he went up the mountain to cut down a lot of bamboo, and then spent twenty yuan to buy back a set of broken bamboo knives. He taught Ma Xiangdong step by step how to make some bamboo baskets, bamboo mats, dustpans, and bamboo chairs. Bamboo stools, bamboo cabinets...

Yuanchun taught him step by step all the daily necessities that could be made from bamboo.

Yuan Chun also gave him a picture album of bamboo products and asked him to learn and research by himself.

Ma Xiangdong was ingenious and learned quickly. It didn’t take long for him to start making bamboo stools, dustpans, bamboo mats by himself...

As a result, more and more bamboo products were made at home. .

Villagers who often visit Ma's house are willing to spend money to buy and use the bamboo products made by Ma Xiangdong when they see that they are of good quality.

As a result, Ma Xiangdong can earn more than ten yuan every month with this craft.

Since the bamboo product craftsmanship became profitable, Ma Xiangdong gradually smiled more and more and talked more. He would also take the initiative to exchange bamboo product production methods with Yuan Chun.

The conversations between mother and son gradually increased.

The relationship between mother and son is getting deeper and deeper day by day.

Since there is no cost to grow bamboo in the mountains, bamboo products are sold cheaply. Most of the bamboo products made by Ma Xiangdong are sold to the villagers, and a small part is sold to the educated youth who come to the countryside.

Many people in the village saw that Ma Xiangdong could make money by weaving bamboo products, and wanted to learn this craft.

But they actually went to the mountains to cut down the bamboo, and after they started making it themselves, they discovered that making bamboo products is not as easy as it seems, it is very complicated.

As a result, those who also wanted to learn to make bamboo products and make money gave up.

Ma Laoer also wanted to learn this craft, but he was not patient enough. After learning for a few days, he cut a lot of skin on his hands and gave up. Wang Cui was so angry that he grabbed his ears and scolded him severely. Dayton.
