Chapter 8 Arrest

"Can you really make that much?"

In the bare wheat field full of wheat stubble, Guan Yang looked at Guan Xiaojun suspiciously, "Are you a liar?"

Looking at his sister with a vigilant face, Guan Xiaojun couldn't hold back a smile and said seriously: "Whoever lied to you is a puppy!"

Guan Yang believed it at this time, she stretched out her fingers and tilted her head and thought for a while, "If this is the case, it will be fourteen a day, ten days will be one hundred and fourteen, and you can earn more than a hundred dollars for a wheat vacation, and you can buy whatever you want and eat whatever you want!"

After Guan Yang's little wish was spoken, Guan Xiaojun felt sad when he heard it.

In this era, there is still a lack of materials, even if the Guan family is well-off, there is no essential difference between the two Guan Yang sisters and brothers and the rest of the friends in terms of living conditions.

The same carries the schoolbag sewn by his mother to school, the same wears patched clothes, the same wears the mille-feuille shoes made by his mother, and now the sandals are broken, and they are sewn directly with thick threads, and they do not consider buying a new pair, only if they can't wear them, they will buy new ones.

Guan Yang is very sensible, the pocket money given by the family is generally reluctant to spend, and sometimes he has to give half of it to Guan Xiaojun when he buys some snacks, and it is difficult to make up his mind to buy delicious things even if he is hungry and can't walk.

It can be said that most of the children of this era, except for a very few people, are very frugal and will not spend money indiscriminately.

"Okay, we have made money, we can eat if we want, and buy if we want!"

Guan Xiaojun's eyes were a little red, "I will definitely buy you a lot of delicious and fun food when the time comes!"

"Huh, why are your eyes red?"

"It's okay, I'm blinded by the wind again!"

"Then I'll blow it to you again!"

"Let's get to work!"

"Hmm!"

When the land is divided in the countryside, for the sake of fairness, each family in the village will occupy a little bit of the fertile and thin fields, and it is absolutely impossible for all of people's fields to be fertile fields, nor can they all be thin fields, and basically the good and the bad are equally divided.

As a result, the family's fields will be divided into scattered plots, which are not next to each other, often three or four acres of fertile fields in the south, five or six acres in the north, two or three acres of saline-alkali land in the east, and sometimes several fields of the family are even several miles apart.

Just like the field where Guan Xiaojun picked the ears of wheat at this time was two miles away from the wheat field, and the other fields were not close to the wheat field, so after the wheat was harvested, it had to be pulled to the wheat field by car.

So at this time, there are horse-drawn carts and donkey carts pulling the wheat straw piled into a hill on the road from time to time.

This kind of carriage pulls wheat straw, one is afraid of poor roads, and the other is afraid of strong winds.

If the road conditions are not good, the probability of overturning is very large, and if there is a strong wind, it will also overturn, so the people who drive the car dare not be a little sloppy along the way.

Fortunately, Guan Yunshan bought a Wuling tractor, this kind of car has a large front and a larger bucket, and ordinary three or five carriages are not as heavy as his car. Therefore, the wheat that was harvested yesterday was all pulled into the wheat field this morning.

After he spread the wheat evenly in the wheat field, he remembered the two children who were still picking up ears of wheat in the field, and the family was so busy just now that they forgot about Guan Yang and Guan Xiaojun.

"Hey, did you think Dad forgot about us?"

Guan Xiaojun, who was dragging half a bag of wheat ears and sitting under the poplar tree on the ground, boredly held a cat's tail grass and teased the ants while saying to Guan Yang: "Look, it's noon, and I don't see them coming to pick us up and go home!"

Guan Yang took a small kettle and poured a few sips of water, and then handed the kettle to Guan Xiaojun with a look of uncertainty: "Won't it?"

Guan Xiaojun took the kettle and poured a few sips, "Anyway, we've picked up all the ears of wheat, and it's okay now, let's go, catch the grasshoppers!"

This season, it is a good time to catch grasshoppers, at this time there are few pesticides in the field, there are many insects, crickets, grasshoppers, grasshoppers, praying mantises, cicadas, bean insects, butterflies, ground tigers, these things are everywhere, especially bean insects, grow fat and big, are about to become sperm!

This big cyan insect is more than ten centimeters long, touching it with your hand, jumping around, many timid peasant women dare not catch it, but some people take a jar to catch these bean worms, put them in the bottle and take them home to feed the chickens.

But for these bugs, children occasionally play with them, and do not regard them as the main pleasure, and their favorite thing is to catch grasshoppers.

The female has a male and a female, the male is smaller, the call is loud and crisp, the female is big-bellied, but it can't bark, and the tail comes out of the elder with a tail needle comparable to the length of his body, which is used to lay eggs.

In Guan Xiaojun's hometown, the male can put it in a cage to listen to its call, but the female can fry it in the pot and eat it, which can be described as a good thing that can be played and eaten.

This kind of thing is called the first of the three songworms, and it is louder than crickets and oil gourds, and it can be called the champion of the songworm world.

I don't know what's going on, there are a lot of gnats in the fields near the Guandi Temple, and they start to become scarce a few miles away.

Once, when a vendor pushing a cart to sell cloth passed by the Guandi Temple, he was very happy to hear the cries of the grasshoppers, and as soon as the car was thrown, he ran to the field to catch them, and finally caught several grasshoppers and carefully stuffed them into the bag and went back happily, not even knowing that he had dropped a piece of cloth. I don't know why this guy likes gnats so much.

Many years later, because of pesticides, the grasshoppers in the fields have almost disappeared, not to mention urban children, even rural children can hardly hear the cries of grasshoppers.

When Guan Yang heard Guan Xiaojun say about catching gnats, he suddenly came to his senses, "Catch the mother first and eat it at home, and finally catch the male and put it in the cage!"

Guan Xiaojun smiled and stretched out his palm to pat Guan Yang, "That's it!"

The two threw the bag aside and threw themselves into the field.

By the time Guan Yunshan drove the tractor to the field, the two sisters and brothers had already run away.

Guan Yunshan was so anxious that he stood on the front of the car and watched for a long time before he found the figures of the two children, and shouted for a long time before calling the two of them to his side.

Among the two children who walked in front of Guan Yunshan, Guan Xiaojun was holding two dog-tailed grasses in his hands, and a large string of big-bellied grasshoppers were wearing on the grass stems, while Guan Yang was holding two small-bellied male grasshoppers in his hands.

"These two kids!"

Guan Yunshan laughed and scolded a few times, hung the wheat ear bag behind the seat, and said to the two: "Let's go, it's not early, it's time to go home for dinner!"

Guan Xiaojun smiled and said, "Today I want to eat fried gnats!"

Guan Yunshan said: "You know how to eat!"

At this time, the scorching sun was shining, and the direct sunlight was like a fire, Guan Yunshan no longer stayed on the ground, and directly put the two children on the car, and the tractor head drove towards the village with green smoke.

After parking the car at the door of the house and leading the children into the yard, Guan Yunshan saw several villagers in the yard who were handcuffed.

Hong Xingang, who was wearing a big cap, stood in front of several villagers with a serious face and reprimanded loudly: "You are breaking the law, do you know it? You will go to prison!"

"What period is it now? The state has repeatedly ordered us to crack down on criminal gangs, and you are better now, forming groups to steal. Now it has become a criminal gang, and the leader is Guan Yungang! If you go against the wind, your crime will be increased by one degree, and you will be shot!"

A middle-aged man howled in fright, "I don't want to die!"
