Seeing me, the village chief immediately stood up enthusiastically: "Lao Zhao, let's make a lot of money today." ”

I smiled and said, "Village Chief, you are laughing at me again, my pork is so cheap, just barely supporting my family." ”

The village chief said: "Okay, Lao Zhao, don't pretend to be poor." The butchers in these ten miles and eight villages are not as good as yours. You've made all their money, and you still say you don't have any money. ”

I smiled speechlessly and bitterly: "Okay, village chief, just say it directly, is there something wrong with me?"

The village chief said: "It just rained heavily two days ago, and the roof of the village primary school is leaking again, and if it is not repaired, there may be a risk of collapse." ”

"Isn't there a shortage of funds in the village, there is no money to build a school, so I want the villagers to raise funds. Most of the villagers have paid money, and you, Lao Zhao, as the richest man in our village, can't you donate some money?"

I sighed helplessly: "Village chief, didn't I just donate money a few days ago, why did I ask me to donate money again." ”

"I'll be honest with you, I just sold pork for enough money to keep my capital, and I really don't have any extra money. Why don't I donate this time and make up for it when I have money?"

The village chief was a little angry: "Lao Zhao, you can't be enlightened." Those little dolls are all going to become pillars of talent in the future, and if something happens, you are also responsible. You can take on this responsibility. ”

"Also, in two days you won't marry the king's widow. Then the widow can bring her two children, and your two children will also have to attend the village school. ”

Ay!

I sighed helplessly, the village chief said so, why am I embarrassed not to take the money.

I had no choice but to give the village chief all the more than 500 yuan I earned today.

The village chief happily took the money and said, "Lao Zhao, you can rest assured." When your child comes, I promise to let your child sit in the front row of the teacher, and let your child honestly open a small stove. ”

After the village chief left, Aunt Chen Jing next door came out of the house and looked at me with a smile: "Lao Zhao, you donated money to the school just now." ”

I nodded.

Aunt Chen Jing sighed: "Hey, why are you so sincere." The village has enough money to build a school, so the village chief collects money from the village, and in the end, it doesn't fall into his own pocket?"

"No one in the village pays money at all, even if you pay it to death, it's ten or twenty yuan, it's really stupid for you to give him so much at once. ”

I smiled happily.

Of course, I knew that the village had enough money to build a school, and even more than enough.

But if I don't pay the money, the village chief won't go to school, and I can't let the children take the risk because of my personal reasons.

Those dolls are still young, and they will contribute to the country when they grow up.

And when they grow up in the future, they have to remember the kindness of my Zhao butcher.

In the afternoon, I was at home tending to the sows and piglets.

Looking at the piglets with shiny coats, I was happy from the bottom of my heart.

These piglets are my Zhao Zhongxing's life. As long as they live, I, Zhao Zhongxing, will not starve to death.

In the evening, the village chief came to me and said that he had contacted the construction team and would start building the school tomorrow.

I didn't want to go, after all, I had to kill the pigs early tomorrow morning, but the village chief insisted on letting me go, so I had to go.

Of course, I couldn't go empty-handed, so I bought two bottles of good wine from the village shop.

By the way, the small shop in the village is opened by the village chief's family.

The wine was eaten at the village chief's house, and the banquet was very rich, more sumptuous than the wedding banquet in the village.

I think the money for this table of banquets is estimated to be enough to repair the school.

But in front of the construction team, I didn't have anything to say.

Because the people in the construction team are all relatives of the village chief's family.

When we were about to finish the banquet, Zhao Tiezhu suddenly came to the village chief's house.

He had come to ask the village chief for money.

Only then did I know that the meat I had given to Zhao Tiezhu's family on credit today had not been used up, and he had sold it to the village chief's family.

I asked Zhao Tiezhu a little angrily, why don't you return the unused meat to me, I can still sell it in the market tomorrow.

Zhao Tiezhu patted me on the shoulder happily and said that I am so rich, can I still care about this bit of meat?

Besides, he got the meat on credit, and sooner or later he will give me money, so what to do with the meat is his business.

I sighed helplessly, and said in my heart that if you give me money, of course I don't care what to do with it.

But you've been owing me money for two years, and you haven't given it to me until now, so of course I have to take care of it.

But in front of so many people, I didn't want to make Zhao Tiezhu ugly, so I didn't say anything.

I drank a little too much today and staggered all the way home and fell asleep.

As a result, I couldn't sleep peacefully at night, and in the middle of the night, I suddenly heard someone banging on my door.

I was still dizzy, but I gritted my teeth and got up to open the door.

Standing at the door was a family of three, with an anxious look on their faces.

When the third son saw me, he immediately begged bitterly: "Uncle Zhao, my son has a high fever, you take us to the hospital in the county seat, please." ”

I glanced at the child who was held in the arms of the three daughters-in-law, the child's face was crimson, and it was a little difficult to breathe, and it seemed that he was indeed seriously burned.

I was the only one in the village who had a three-wheeled motorcycle, so I didn't say a word, just drove the three-wheeler, let them get in the car, and drove towards the county seat.

At this time, it was the freezing season, and because I was in a hurry, I only wore very few clothes, and I shivered from the cold along the way, and my hands were stiff.

Looks like I'm going to catch a cold today, too.

When I came to a junction in the county, I suddenly found that there was a traffic police officer checking the car not far ahead.

I was shocked.

My car didn't have the formalities, and I was also considered drunk driving, so I was found to be detained.

I stopped the car in surprise and asked Sanyazi, "Sanyazi, you didn't drink a bar tonight." ”

The third man shook his head: "No, what's wrong Uncle Zhao." ”

I said, "There is a traffic police officer in front, you come and drive." If you don't drink, you'll be fined a few hundred at most. I'll pay for you. ”

"If they find out that I am driving while intoxicated, they will not only be fined, but they will also be detained. ”

The three men immediately glanced ahead, and after discovering the traffic police, they hurriedly jumped out of the car and picked up his wife and children.

"Uncle Zhao, how can you be like this. If you don't want to be caught, let them arrest me? We won't sit in your car. ”

Saying that, the third son was going to take his wife and children away.

I was sweating profusely in a hurry, and hurriedly stopped the three men: "Sanyazi, you listen to me." If you are caught, it will be fined, and I will definitely pay this money for you, and we can leave on the spot. But I was arrested, and I was detained for a few days......"

But the three men still turned around and left without hesitation.

Looking at the resolute figure of the three gentlemen, my whole person was like falling into an ice cave.

The three men just left me here and left with their wives and children?

Not only did he refuse to help me with such a small favor, but he didn't even bother to stay and help me intercede with the traffic police!

I was sending his family of three to encounter such a thing.

I was stunned for an unknown amount of time, and I still couldn't accept this cruel reality.

Two lines of cold tears slipped down my cheeks and flowed into my mouth with a bitter voice.

Several traffic policemen ran up and surrounded me.

Fortunately, the traffic police knew that I was coming from the countryside for more than 50 miles, and I was shivering from the cold, but in the end they couldn't bear to detain me, and just fined me a few hundred yuan and let me leave.

One of the young men handed me his teacup and asked me to take a sip of water to warm up.

I rode my motorcycle on three wheels and came home in a daze.

When I got home, I had a high fever.

But what is the pain of fever compared to the pain caused by heartache?

During my injury, it was my fiancée, Widow Wang, who took care of me all the time.

The people in the family of the three sons never came to see me from beginning to end.

I was angry in my heart, and I told the widow about it.

Widow Wang also comforted me and told me that the three sons were just children, and asked me not to be like them.

Yes, the third boy is just a child, why should I be like him.

I quickly put this matter behind me, and I was too lazy to bother.

Soon, it was my wedding day.

I had been preparing for this day for too long.

Early in the morning, I dressed up and went to marry the king's widow, surrounded by the villagers.

The widow Wang lost her husband at an early age, and she worked hard to bring up two children.

I saw that the widow of the king was pitiful, and I often helped her.

After a long time, the two of us developed feelings. Until today, it has finally come to fruition.

On that day, almost everyone in the village came to my house for a wedding drink.

Although they were only half of what I gave them, I was able to understand them and was not angry.

The folks are not having a good time, they can come to my house to help, as long as the heart is there, I don't care if the money is not money.

From that day on, I secretly swore that for the rest of my life, I would take good care of these poor mothers and treat them as if they were my dearest.

However, God seems to be deliberately unable to get along with me, and even such a simple request will not meet me.

A few days after we got married, my pigs didn't know what was going on, and suddenly they went crazy en masse.

They were screaming and screaming, and they were bumping around, and I stopped them, and the pigs were biting me.

In the end, many pigs smashed the pigsty and rushed out.

My wife and two children watched the pig run away, crying in distress and chased after it.

I was so busy corraling other pigs that I didn't notice the three of them.

When I finally tied up the rest of the pigs, I found that my wife and children were no longer at home.

I hurried out to find them.

Eventually, I heard my wife's cry for help coming from the pond outside the village.

I hurried to the pond and found that the pond was full of villagers.

My pigs, on the other hand, rushed into the pond, struggling and drowning.

My wife's cry for help came from the center of the pond. But it was too dark for me to see her.
