Chapter 125 No way
Lu Sheige walked back swaying with a basket in his hands.
Along the way, the basket was heavy and the road was difficult. She changed hands several times and rested twice before she could barely see the woods in Happy Ridge.
Fortunately, there are rice fields all the way, and the air is crisp in autumn. As long as you are not in a hurry, you won't feel too hot.
Before they arrived at Happy Ridge, they saw Lu Quan, his wife and Zhang Sange running over in a hurry.
Everyone heaved a sigh of relief when they saw Lu Xiaosi walking slowly on the yellow dirt road carrying a basket.
"Xiaosi, why did you go to town?"
Mrs. Qiu came up and dragged Xiaosi over and looked at her carefully.
"I didn't go to town, so I went to Aunt Ding's house to sit there. Aunt Ding even gave me pig belly lungs, saying that she could stew them into soup to moisten my lungs."
"Why are you taking snacks from Mrs. Ding's house again and asking your father to send some money later?"
If it had been any other child, Lu Quan would have slapped him long ago. But when he met Xiaosi, Lu Quan couldn't bear it! He wanted to scold him, but he just sighed heavily, took the basket from Xiaosi's hand, and raised his hand to put it in his hand.
She was patted lightly on the head.
It’s a fight!
Zhang San pretended to be red face again: "You are too naughty kid, how dare you go to the town alone. I won't let you go to the woods next time, just stay at home. If something really happens, your father
My mother could eat me alive."
Along with Lu Quan and his wife, there was also Brother Zhang. He saw that Lu Quan and his wife knew that Xiao Si had gone to town, and his face turned pale.
Brother Zhang was not very happy at that time. It was he who suggested that the children go to guard the woods, and it was he who called upon Little Four to go there. If something happened to Little Four, he would really be doomed.
Lu Quan smiled awkwardly: "How can that be possible!"
I completely forgot how panicked I was when I didn't see Xiaosi come back for a long time, and then heard Xiaoyu, unable to prepare herself for her mother's cross-examination, tell her that Xiaosi had gone to town alone.
Everyone in the yard was shocked by him.
"Okay, it's okay." Zhang San slowed down his tone, came over and touched Lu Xiaosi's head, "Don't run around next time, you don't know how worried your parents are about you."
"I was wrong."
Lu Xiangge apologized obediently and let Uncle Zhang's big palm rub her little head.
When Uncle Zhang took his hand away, she shook her head helplessly. Her head was almost bald by everyone.
Why do big guys like to rub children’s heads so much?
Is this how to show kindness?
But she really doesn’t want to accept such cordial greetings!
Seeing that Xiaosi realized that she was wrong, Mrs. Qiu felt distressed again: "It's not that your parents don't allow you to go to the town. Next time you go to the town, ask your father to follow you. The town is so far away and walking is a waste of time. Go back and ask your eldest sister to help you."
You boil some hot water and soak your feet, otherwise your legs will hurt at night."
"Mom, it's okay. I run every morning and evening. I'm not tired after such a long journey."
Qiu's words made Lu Sheige feel a little sour in her heart. She was indeed a little self-righteous, and she went to the town rashly alone.
This time, Song Yunfei came to her with kind intentions. If Song Yunfei was a bad person, with her current age and physique, she might not be able to come back!
With this layer of guilt, Lu Sheige did not dare to mention Song Yunfei's matter.
On the way, she briefly recounted what Aunt Ding had said, and emphasized that there were indeed Hongying troops in the town, but they were not numerous and they did not disturb the people. They seemed to be in peace with everyone so far.
What Lu Sheige didn't say was that she suspected that Song Yunfei brought these red tassel troops.
"It looks like the Hongying Army is really going to attack!" Lu Quan sighed and said to Zhang San, "I've looked at the rice in the field. I can barely harvest it in two days. Then I'll harvest it first.
My family has a lot of land. The ones in your land will grow longer if you leave them."
When the grain in this field is about to mature, there is a big difference between harvesting first and then harvesting later.
Some of the grain that is harvested first is not fully mature yet, so the harvested grain is mostly blue and white.
If this kind of green rice is taken back before it is mature, the harvest of one acre of land will be reduced by dozens of kilograms.
Zhang San wanted to persuade Lu Quan to wait a few more days, but he thought about Lu Quan's dozens of acres of land. If the Hongying Army really came early, it would be too late to harvest it, which would mean even more waste.
If I had known that when I bought the land, I would not have to ask for grain, and let shopkeeper Li collect it himself. They would just take the land directly, so they would have less to worry about.
As soon as this thought occurred, Zhang San immediately killed it.
Shopkeeper Li was really kind and righteous to them at Nodong. They couldn't be ungrateful. The land was sold to them cheaply, but the grain was only collected at three hundred kilograms per acre. This was equivalent to one family sending hundreds of kilograms of grain to them.
Now if he wants to say that he regrets harvesting grain, not only brother Lu Quan, but even just thinking about it makes him feel that his face is red and he can't see others.
"Then... let's wait and see the day after tomorrow. If you really can't accept it, just wait for two more days." After saying this, Zhang San sighed lightly.
When I didn’t have land, I was afraid I wouldn’t have enough to eat; when I had land, I was afraid I wouldn’t be able to harvest the food I got!
It’s okay if God doesn’t open his eyes. It’s not like the Hongying Army was born from poor people, so why can’t he understand the difficulties faced by farmers like them?
It’s not easy to harvest at any time, so we have to choose the autumn harvest time.
"Dad, I will go to the town to see it tomorrow."
Singer Lu Xi walked much more briskly without the basket, "Let's not rush to harvest the rice for the time being. The ears of rice are still green and we won't be able to harvest them. I'll go to the town first to check the wind."
She made an appointment with Song Yunfei to meet tomorrow. If she didn't go, she doubted that Song Yunfei would be able to find Zhuangzi directly with his temper.
At that time, it will no longer be a matter for Lu Quan and his wife to worry about.
Maybe all seven members of Zhuangzi’s family would be frightened.
"no."
After hearing that Xiaosi said they were going to town, Lu Quan and Qiu spoke together.
"You can't go to the town." Mrs. Qiu said with a face, fearing that Xiao Si would be disobedient, she stretched out her hand and held Xiao Si's arm tightly, "Don't listen to people's lies, saying that the Hongying Army loves the people like sons, they are just like the common people.
They were all born into poverty, so we can better understand the hardship and difficulty of ordinary people."
"fart……"
Qiu was so anxious that he even started to use vulgar words, "Who are these people who dare to rebel? They are bandits, robbers, and those gangsters who haven't learned anything all day long. These people usually dare to do anything.
Do you think how good they can be to us people?"
"That's right." Lu Quan walked on Lu Xiaosi's left hand side and said earnestly, "If you want to buy anything and eat whatever you want, just tell daddy that he will go to town to buy it. You are not allowed to sneak into town alone. Those red
The Ying army carries knives and guns, if you accidentally bump into them, who knows if they will fall out."
The couple said something to each other, which made Zhang San, who was walking in front, feel his eyebrows pounding.
The Lu Quan couple really doted on their children, and they dared to say anything.
