Chapter 139 Farming is fun
The next day after they came back, Mingxu and Xiaoxin were taken to the fields by Teacher Yoshinaga and the other children.
"Good kids, today we are going to learn how to farm in this field." Several teachers and the head teacher said while standing in front of the children.
"Good~" Everyone cheered. Mingxu was now extremely energetic, as if he had endless energy all over his body. The previous exercises were not even considered warm-ups for him now, and he cheered especially loudly.
"...You think, why does Xiaoxu seem so active after going out?" Teacher Yoshinaga looked at Mingxu and asked the headmaster and Teacher Matsusaka with some confusion.
"I don't understand." The two looked at Mingxu in surprise, not understanding.
"Forget it, kids, what should we do to farm?" Teacher Yoshinaga was too lazy to think about it and asked the kids.
"Play in the mud." Xiaoxin shouted without hesitation.
"No! Didn't I explain this to you when I came here today?"
"I know!" Feng Jian immediately raised his hand: "It is to plant the seedlings."
"Come on, teacher, when will it start? I can't wait to start!" Mingxu looked at Teacher Yoshinaga with a sharp gaze.
"...Xiao Xu, please wait a little longer. Okay." Teacher Yoshinaga said somewhat awkwardly.
"Okay, Fengjian said it very well. So when the rice grows up, what can we harvest?"
"Rice." Everyone said in unison. Mingxu drew a circle on the side and said casually: "Isn't it just the rice we eat every day?"
"...Yes. That's the white rice that everyone eats every day." Teacher Yoshinaga continued, "The rice we eat every day is grown in the rice fields."
"Oh, so that's how it is. How come I didn't know this?" Shin-chan suddenly shouted in surprise.
“…” Mingxu rolled his eyes at him. Xiaoxin felt a chill on his back and looked around.
"...Okay, friends, take off your shoes and socks now and go into the fields." Teacher Yoshinaga said immediately, and teachers from other classes also said the same thing to the children in their class.
"It's ready." Mingxu was already standing in the field. He looked at Teacher Ji Yong and asked, "Where are the rice seedlings?"
"...Xiao Xu, can you wait a moment?" Teacher Yoshinaga said with a wry smile. Ming Xu was quick, but that didn't mean the others were the same. The other children were a little reluctant to hear this.
"Ah, and I have to go barefoot..."
"It's a real headache, really." Xiaoxin shook his head and followed Mingxu into the field.
"But I still feel a little scared." Zhengnan said fearfully as he looked at the mud field in front of him.
"Zhengnan, show your manliness!" Mingxu and Xiaoxin shouted to Zhengnan while standing in the field.
"But this is my first time working in the fields, and I'm still a little scared." Zhengnan looked at Mingxu Xiaoxin timidly.
"Don't be afraid, come on!" Mingxu looked at Zhengnan and encouraged.
"Okay." Zhengnan nodded and finally took a step forward. At this time, others also went to the fields.
"Come, children from the Rose Class, line up in the field." Teacher Matsusaka also called the children together. She also missed this feeling very much. She hadn't experienced the feeling of working in the field for a long time.
"Okay, let me introduce you to the teacher who is farming today. He is the owner of this rice field, Mr. Inada Kyosaku." The director stood in front of everyone and pointed to a man next to him.
The man looked at so many children and said shyly: "Hello, everyone... I..."
"Welcome!" Seeing Mr. Xiongzuo like this, Mingxu and Xiaoxin shouted, and then everyone applauded.
"The director has just introduced me. My name is Inada Xiongzuo. Please give me your guidance." Mr. Xiongzuo also summoned up the courage to say, "Today is an auspicious day! If you have any questions, you can ask me!"
“Yes, could you please explain to us the methods of planting rice fields and growing rice?” said the director.
"Good! The most important thing about farming is to be motivated!"
"I'm ready!" Mingxu pulled Xiaoxin and shouted.
"very good!"
"Growing rice also requires love!" Mr. Xiongzuo said again.
"???" Mingxu asked with a look of confusion, how do you get this thing related to love?
"..Um, could you please explain it more clearly, please?" The headmaster waved his hand.
"Okay, does anyone have any questions for Mr. Inada?" Teacher Yoshinaga asked the children.
"How are children born?" Xiao Xinyan immediately raised his hand and asked.
“???” Mingxu turned to look at Xiaoxin. What a famous scene. But did you see something at night?
"It's not this problem! It's about farming! A problem with farming!" Teacher Yoshinaga shouted with a red face.
"If you want to have a baby, you must first let your wife lie down..." Mr. Kyosaku said it very honestly, but was interrupted by the headmaster: "Oh, oh, we thank Mr. Inada..."
Everyone applauded. Although they always felt something was wrong, Mingxu gave a thumbs up. One dared to ask, and the other dared to speak.
"Okay, let's start planting rice." After Mr. Rice Field explained some farming techniques again, everyone was ready to start.
"...Xiaoxu, when did you become so fast?" Teacher Yoshinaga was about to say something when he found that Mingxu had already started over there and the seedlings in his hand were about to be planted.
"Ah? Didn't it start?" Mingxu raised his head and looked at Teacher Yoshinaga with an innocent look on his face.
"...Everyone, look at Xiaoxu, just plant the rice seedlings like this, be careful, and don't plant them crookedly." Teacher Yoshinaga said helplessly, pointing at the good places where Mingxu planted the rice seedlings. It must be said that this boy did a very standard job.
The children started, but it was obvious that they were not doing a good job, and the seedlings kept growing crookedly.
"Humph, I will definitely be able to plant the most beautiful rice seedlings and show you guys!" Fengjian started his own actions unconvinced, but he soon found that the rice seedlings he was planting were either crooked, tilted here and there, or not straight.
“...Don’t fall! Don’t tilt!” Fengjian became furious.
"..Please be quiet, Fengjian, you sound like you are talking about me..." Zhengnan looked at Fengjian speechlessly.
"Really? How do we do this?" Fengjian was furious.
"Hey, watch me." Mingxu came over and taught him. Although Fengjian was a little unconvinced, he still listened obediently.
For Shin-chan, since he had learned it in Akita, transplanting rice seedlings was a piece of cake. However, he was not paying attention and was walking in the same row with the director, and the rice seedlings were planted right on top of him.
"... Please, Xiaoxin, could you please just focus on farming?" The head gardener said helplessly as he took off the seedlings on his body.
"Oh~" Xiaoxin nodded.
I have to say, Xiaoxin was really honest this time and was working seriously.
"Teacher Matsusaka, you are amazing." Mingxu exclaimed as he looked at Teacher Matsusaka's quick movements.
"Are you kidding? People call me the farming princess! Damn it, you made me say something!" Teacher Matsusaka muttered, and Mingxu spread his hands to indicate that it was none of his business.
"Hmph, then I don't care anymore! Use your full strength!" Teacher Matsusaka began to farm with all his strength, at an astonishing speed.
"Great, she's suitable to be my daughter-in-law." Mr. Inada said to Teacher Matsusaka.
"But she has a bad temper." Xiaoxin reminded.
"..."
After a busy day, everyone was exhausted. After returning home, except for Mingxu, Xiaoxin also went to bed early. Mingxu didn't feel tired at all, but it was really comfortable to move around.
