About This Novel
Horses want, horses want, horses want. Liu Junbiao shouted three times in a row, but I didn't respond. I lowered my head and read a small picture book. This little picture book belonged to Liu Junbiao. At noon, I exchanged it for the price of a piece of fruit candy and read it all afternoon. I had to return it to him when we gathered at the team's drying ground after dinner. But as soon as I brought the little picture book home, my mother asked me to send the tea tube to the field, saying that my father forgot to bring water. I curled my lips for a long time and refused to move. My mother slapped me on my bare back and told me that you could eat faster than a rabbit and that you could be lazier than a dead snake in doing things. I quickly threw the small picture book on the table, picked up the tea tube and went out. I knew that if I rubbed it again, it would no longer be a slap on my bare back, but probably a broom handle.
