The two men of the Shui family are lame. One is ignorance. The bit is mouth can't Cao tried his best to ask Zhang Laohan, who is more than eighty years old, a few times, and pulled Zhang Cripple to say what he meant, but this old man shook his hand, and pointed to his mouth again, ahhhhh Asked Zhang Lame again, the lame man said that it was from Houliangzhuang, which was farther away from Zaoshugou than Huilong Village, and it was also a small village with a few households, and the old village only lived here a few years ago. And it can be seen that although the two of them are polite to the village chief and Jian Fan, they don't trust them so much, especially the old man Zhang, his eyes are staring at the village chief for a while, and Zeng Nan for a while, which makes Zeng Nan hide behind Jian Fan with a chill inexplicably.

After saying a few words, the main owner came back, Zhang Xiaoju, who was thin and looked like a thief, entered the door, shouting Dad, but when he saw that there were so many people in the yard, he was slightly stunned, and when he saw this character, Jian Fan bit his lip and smiled, this goods carried two summer melons under his armpits, and subconsciously stuffed his clothes, and he didn't need to be judged to know who might steal it in the field. That little melon boy is when it grows, if it is in his own field, he must be reluctant to pick it. It is estimated that he was a little depressed when he didn't receive the money, and even the village chief didn't pay attention to it, and went straight into the house with the melon, Jian Fan looked sideways, not only did he steal the melon, but he also stuffed a handful of tender pods in the pocket of his clothes.

The village chief had already seen it, grinning a little bit and pointing at the goods, he was really speechless, shouting Xiaoju to come out, the prestige of the village chief on the stone pier when the big horse golden knife sat in the courtyard is estimated not to be practiced in a day or two, Zhang Xiaoju was a little cringe, but it was an unconvinced expression, and he had to come forward, the lame father stood in front of the village chief and said good things, as if he was afraid that the village chief would pick thorns again, and Jian Fan and Xiao Chenggang stood aside, this posture was simply like a three-hall trial, as soon as he opened his mouth, it was really like a trial, and the village chief was educating with a big hand: these are the big bosses from the city, big cadre, what do you say honestly, look at your father, your father, how honest and honest you are, how can there be such a thief baby as you!? Do you think I'm blind, I can't see who you're stealing?"

hasn't talked about the trial yet, Zhang Xiaoju looks like he is not afraid of biting if he has more lice, he is long, and he is not a thief if he is not caught on the spot, but he didn't dare to scold his mouth, Jian Fan hurriedly opened the topic, stepped forward and asked politely: Zhang Xiaoju, we don't mean anything else, in fact, we just came to ask, there is indeed a merchant surnamed Jian in Zaoshugou Village, let me ask you how do you know that there is such a person? .

It is said to be the local dialect of the villagers, and the oolong side is close to Shaanxi, and the Shaanxi flavor is very strong. And the speed of speech was very fast, and I saw that Zhang Xiaoju was a little angry and sneered and said: "I know a lot of people, and there are people who are on the top of the name" Hey, I haven't said it yet, why can't they send me money if they can send them money?"

It is estimated that he returned home, and Lao Tzu above stiffened Zhang Xiaoju's waist a little, but Jian Fan was stunned when questioned, but immediately reversed, and said politely: "You have to explain the ins and outs clearly, it's not that you can't send it to you, the village committee hasn't told you yet." You're gone

"What's the ins and outs? It's just that yesterday I heard that there was a group of stunned people in the city who were next to the village to pay money, so I went to sign up, so how fake is that? Just pick me out, don't you bully people? Zhang Xiaoju poured his anger on Jian Fan, complaining, Jian Fan couldn't cry or laugh with his hands: "This," how can this be considered a bully?

"What kind of bully? Who are you talking about, who else but you?" the village chief also burst into flames, spitting and shouting, and the sound shook the roof. Straight to scared Zhang Xiaoju back two steps, the old lame father hurriedly pulled his son to the village chief, for fear that the village chief would be angry, and now he really froze. Zeng Nan, who was watching from the side, saw that Xiao Chenggang was also glaring, and quietly asked what was wrong, Xiao Chenggang pointed at Zhang Xiaoju and whispered: "This king and eight calves, we are stunned." ”

"What, what is stunned?" Zeng Nan couldn't understand the local accent here, and asked weakly. "It's stupid. As soon as Xiao Chenggang explained, Zeng Nan was stunned when he heard it, but then he understood, isn't it stupid to throw money from village to village? I didn't have a good impression of this little foal, but now I see that this thing is more and more unpleasant, the sharp-beaked monkey has a mouth of sesame teeth, and the more I look at it, the more it looks like a thief is written on his face.

And the dispute here is over the truth or falsehood, the village chief scolded and shouted a few words, the lame father pulled, the little foal saw that there were too many people and was a little unbearable on his face, jumping to his feet to distinguish the white: "Come to Uncle Tiger, you also bully me, right? The jujube tree ditch has been barren for almost 30 years, and there is no one in the grave, so there are so many relatives, this is a little trickster who burns paper seedlings as money!?" ”

"Coffee, beat you up a sheath, just, like a lot of strange words," the village chief was in a hurry, at this time the money was there, so blamed by the villagers, the old face couldn't hang up, saying that he was going to go to the family law with thick cloth shoes, that Zhang Xiaoju saw the opportunity quickly, and like the village committee, the cat squeaked out of the door and didn't know where to hide, the lame father accompanied the smiling face to the angry village chief to stroke his chest, the village chief pushed angrily, and turned around and led Jian Fan and the three of them straight and said:

"Let's go, let's go" can't look at this collapsed goods, as soon as I look at it, I get angry, I said, this deaf and lame is a second-rate, and there is no good seed", let's go

As if he was afraid of getting some bad luck, he walked forward first, scolded a few words, and threw the embarrassed and smiling lame father in the middle of the courtyard, Jian Fan looked back, "The old man has a heart, and he has not pulled or stopped or squinted his eyes to beg for a piece of ice... Yunzhong is ten out of ten deaf and mute, and he has no reaction to the outside world, and shook his head, there is no shortage of such dilapidated poor households in that village, there is a way that horses are thin and long-haired, and people are poor and short-minded, especially seeing this lame father who is smiling and smiling and sending everyone off, it always makes Jian Fan feel that it is very, very pitiful.

Is it a disability in the legs, or is it because of the carbuncle that is poor in the personality!?

Take advantage of the excitement and return in defeat, so that the benevolent people are not depressed, and the village chief is also depressed, and he went down to the bottom of the mountain and returned to the village before he spoke, it is estimated that he thought about it on the road, and said a little flattering to Jian Fan and a few people: Boss Jian, our village cadres are not good, and hundreds of people have to worry about eating, drinking, and Lazar, especially these ignorant mothers-in-law, young and old, illiterate, but it is difficult to deal with Nirvana! I said, don't listen to them chewing their tongues, except for the old lame family, I really haven't found any fakes. ”

Jian Fan's eyes moved casually, he smiled, and when he shook hands and said goodbye, he was relieved: "Oh, Uncle Tiger, look at what you said, we don't care if it's true or not, as long as we don't look for trouble in the future," but this situation has to be eliminated, you can't just make up a name to get the money, right? You have to take care of it, the affairs of the village have to depend on you,"

The village chief, who was very aware of the overall situation, was overcast again, and he was overjoyed, and sent a few people to the entrance of the village as he had done several times before, waving goodbye, until he didn't see the car, he put his hands behind his back, held his head high, and slowly returned home with a rooster pace

The car drove out of Huilong Village and turned a corner at an intersection, stopped on the side of the road, and Jian Fan, who was driving, turned around and asked Xiao Chenggang: "Chenggang, what do you think about this?"

"Look, that kid owes a beating. Xiao Chenggang said disappreciatively. Jian Fan turned his head sideways and asked Zeng Nan again: "What about you, do you see something?"

Zeng Cun thought for a while, shook his head, and asked, "What do you see?"

"Why can't you just open your eyes and brains?" Jian Fan looked at no one who saw the same thing, and sighed: "I can see the relationship between the cadres and the masses here, it's very tense."

"This still needs to be seen? The relationship between cadres and the masses has never been tense. Especially in this village, he will not bully men and women, and he can't be the village chief Xiao Chenggang sneered, standing on the side of power, Zeng Nan smiled when she heard this, she was just curious about these things in the village and countryside, and she really couldn't say that she was ugly, Jian Fan smiled and said, "So, under the pressure of the village chief, it's not easy for this Zhang family to tell us, have you noticed a detail?"

"What details?" Zeng Nan asked curiously, but Xiao Chenggang continued disdainfully: "Here it is again, this is looking for someone, not investigating the case." ”

"Isn't that a reason, think about it, this old man was a handlebar when he was young, and he was a merchant in a nutshell, and the nature of the work of these two people was to go to the countryside and visit households, maybe they had really seen it, maybe "If it is calculated according to four or five years, Zhang Laohan was twenty lang at that time. Almost, or else, let's take a look. Jian Fan didn't seem to give up, and found a far-fetched reason, Xiao Chenggang was a little unhappy, Jian Fan started the car directly, and arranged: "I'll go with Zeng Nan, you wait in the car" You don't want to go yet?

The car turned around, turned around and returned to Long Village, and walked a kilometer towards the road on the mountain, which was an abandoned old village road, saying that he would not go, but Xiao Chenggang didn't want to stay alone, and followed Jian Fan and Zeng Nan into the road again, and groped for a long time before finding the door of the old Zhang's house again. It seems that Zhang Xiaoju didn't mean to open the door, didn't speak, only waved his hand, which means: Let's go.

Jian Fan leaned against the wall and exposed half of his body, and asked with a smile: "Hey, Xiaofoy, find one for you." Do you want to do the work that makes money?"

"Cut" Zhang Xiaoju sneered and raised his head, ignoring it.

"It's simple, I'll give you money right away, can you believe it? Jian Fan flickered, this is the best temptation for poor households, Zhang Xiaoju was slightly tempted to turn his head sideways to look at Jian Fan: "What is the job?"

"Come here, come here, I'll tell you, this is at your doorstep, what can I do with you?" Jian Fan beckoned his hand and shouted a few words diligently, this little foal stood in front of Jian Fan through the wall in disbelief, and saw that Jian Fan took out a hundred yuan, put it on the wall, and said very sincerely: "From this time on, you accompany me for a word, and I will give you ten yuan, what's the matter?"

Zeng Nan covered his nose and smiled, Jian Fan was like coaxing a child with candy, Xiao Chenggang couldn't help but have a little stomach ache when he smiled, but he didn't know what the hell Brother Guo had to come up with, take ten yuan to fool the people. But don't say it, this red, shiny 100 yuan bill is more convincing than anything else, Zhang Xiaoju's thief's eyes moved, a little unbelieving, and a little half-convinced, his hand wanted to stretch out but didn't dare to take it, stunned and asked: "Really?" "Look at you," we are the stunned people you said to scatter money from the city, can we still deceive you? Take it, you count, a sentence of ten yuan Jian Fan said, handed the money straight up, Zhang Juhu suspiciously twisted it into his hand and rubbed it to distinguish the real from the fake, so he heard Jian Fan ask: " First question, don't you want to see the village chief?"

"Then it is needless to say, we don't want to see these foreign surnames, let's settle here, he makes things difficult everywhere, and receives relief in different places, all of which are the worst in our family, I tell you, the village chief drama;

Jian Fan knew, and said with a smile: "The elderly over seventy years old have a township subsidy, and the land policy of this oolong is different from place to place

"Hey Xiaoju, how much subsidy did the village chief embezzle from you?" Zeng Nan asked with interest.

"It's a lot, the township gives my father one dollar a day, and I have to bring him two bottles of wine once a year. Zhang Ju said, raised a finger, Jian Fan's eyes widened and he was stunned, looked at Xiao Chenggang, and couldn't help but smile.

These things are not new to Jian Fan, the local policy in the township and village knows a little more, these few sentences have shortened the distance, Jian Fan asked Zhang Xiaoju with a smile: "The village chief is not a good thing, we also know, hey, by the way, then how do you know the person Jian Lang?"

"What my father said" Zhang Xiaoju said, a sentence with a kind and awe-inspiring expression, Jian Fan suppressed the ecstasy in his heart and asked, "When did you say it?"

"Just yesterday" My father said that the two of them died before liberation, and no one took this name, so I went, who knows you know?"

Zhang Xiaoyo said this, Jian Fan looked back at Zeng Nan and Xiao Chenggang with his eyes wide open like copper bells, and Ren was dizzy by the sudden ecstasy, but fortunately, Xiao Chenggang remained sober about this person's doubts, and reprimanded: "No, isn't your master dumb?"

"Yes, the blind man is clear-hearted and dumb-eyed, and if he doesn't talk to you, it doesn't mean that he won't talk to me." Zhang Xiaoju disdainfully explained, Xiao Chenggang didn't dare to doubt it now, no matter how much he hindered the communication, he would definitely hinder the communication between the two grandparents. was about to ask something, but Jian Fan stretched out his hand to stop the surprise for a moment, and then returned to normal, facing Zhang Xiaoju and said something that puzzled the two behind: "Okay, it's over" We should go, Zhang Xiaoju, say a few words?.

Zhang Xiaoju chuckled, asked, touched his malnourished hair of different lengths and gray colors, and muttered uncertainly: "Five, six, right?"

"Okay, according to six sentences, I will give you a hundred, and find me forty Jian Fan said, stretched out his hand, and looked like he would pay back the money on the spot.

Zeng Nan didn't understand what Jian Fan meant, this little foal was difficult again, and embarrassedly took the hundred-yuan bill and said, "This, such a big ticket, where can I exchange it for you?"

"Oh, yes, this place can't be changed yet. Jian Fan said very understandingly, turned his head sideways and made a grimace at Xiao Chenggang Zeng Nan, and then turned around and asked with a smile: "Or, you and we will sit in the courtyard and talk, or ten yuan a sentence?"

"Uh-huh, yes

At this time, Zhang Xiaoju was suspicious, stuffed a hundred yuan into his pocket, and went to open the courtyard door with a happy face, Xiao Chenggang and Zeng Nan covered their mouths and smiled Xiao Qian, it seemed to be the same as water and fire, but a few dozen yuan will be melted by the ice and snow, but not to mention, this method works, it not only eliminates the vigilance but also shortens the distance, if you want to play, you will give money, maybe he dares to ask for it is still a question.

He courteously invited Ren back to the courtyard and stood aside. Just waited for Jian Fan to speak, a sentence of ten yuan, but Jian Fan changed his tone at this time, and his mouth sprayed for a long time and came up with a new idea: "Hey Ju, I'm done asking you, there's nothing to ask" Otherwise, I'll ask your grandfather a few words, how about you as a translator, that is, you tell him when I speak, what he says, you tell me, okay?"

A sentence of twenty Jian Fan raised two fingers.

"Wait" Zhang Xiaoju didn't say anything, and went back to the house directly, looking like he was going to ask his grandfather to earn twenty yuan.

Hearing Xiao Chenggang and Zeng Nan's anger towards Zhang Xiaoju at this time, Xiao Zeng Nan complained in a low voice, don't you play tricks on others? whispered that he still had a profiteer's face Xiao Zeng Nan looked at Jian Fan several times, always laughing inexplicably, until Zhang Xiaoju pulled his grandfather out, he reluctantly held back, and when he arrived in the center of the courtyard, Jian Fan quickly got up and helped the old man to sit on the stone pier, but unexpectedly, the old man's body was very healthy, and he didn't need to mix it at all, but he just looked at his son suspiciously, and it was Jian Fan and a few people, Jian Fan spoke, took out a string of peach pit prayer beads, and handed it over.

That hand, that big palm, the big hand that has held the axe and hoe for many years, has not stretched straight, weakly put it in the palm of the old man's open hand, looking at this person's broad shoulders, there is still dust on the shoulders, and there are occasionally a few grasses in the messy hair, paying attention to the slight changes in the old man's expression, but unexpectedly, from this wrinkled face like annual rings, you can't find more changes, holding things a few times, and the hand is dancing with strange movements, ahhhhhh, Watching the old man and his grandson Zhang Xiaoju communicating, Jian Fan, Zeng Nan, and Xiao Chenggang were all looking forward to it, waiting for the following.

Slowly, the heart hung in the air."
