Xiao Lang couldn't see Lin Qing's innocent look, and his heart softened when he saw it, just like the old lady, he couldn't be happy in his heart, and he couldn't say anything serious, so he could only rub her little head helplessly, and at the same time made up his mind to detain people around him and not let her run around in the bamboo forest.

In front of the assembly place, Zhao Dameng began to roll call from house to house, and his loud voice could be heard from afar.

After a short time of counting, I found that there were a few families missing and no one came, so I asked a few villagers who went to notify them, and learned that they were all notified, but I don't know if they didn't come.

Zhao Dameng was very dissatisfied on his face, looking at the few people on the list, and seeing that they were all famous lazy people in the village, including the Zhang family, he couldn't help but hold back some anger in his heart. After thinking about it, I decided to let people notify me again, if I really don't want to come, no one will come to talk about the bamboo shoots at night.

After giving the order with an expressionless face, Zhao Dameng led people to the big bamboo forest.

The big bamboo forest is not far away, and it takes about 20 minutes to get there. There is no need for Zhao Dameng to say more, the big guys are veterans of digging bamboo shoots every year, as soon as they enter the bamboo forest, the dense crowd quickly disperses, each occupies a piece of land, puts down the back basket and picks up the hoe and starts digging.

Zhao Dameng was the supervisor, and when he saw that a group of people who knew about it were huddled together, he simply divided a large bamboo forest for them, saving them from running around and digging a few by themselves and disturbing others to distract them. After the incident, Zhao Dameng also chose a place to dig with his son Zhao Yihai.

Lin Qing was taken by Xiao Lang and did not let go, and Xiao Zhuzi and Zhang Wenhe had to follow along. Liugen'er was originally following Xiaozhu's father, but when he saw the eldest sister leaving, he quickly pulled his legs and ran over, Xiaozhu's father was not worried about staring at the back, and at the same time called the other two daughters and asked them to come over and not go far.

The two adults only have two children, but they are a bunch, so they chose a place together, it doesn't matter how much they dig, the main thing is to watch the children not run around, especially the two small ones - Liugener and Lin Qing.

After digging for about half an hour, the families who didn't come finally came over, and they didn't dare to come in front of Zhao Dameng with sneering faces, so they found a random place to dig up. Zhao Dameng didn't say anything bad when he saw it.

Lin Qing glanced up, and among the people who came late was Mrs. Zhang, along with Zhang Santao and Zhang Siya. The three ancestors and grandchildren lowered their heads and picked the most marginal place, and even a few people they knew greeted Mrs. Zhang, and she ignored them.

Seeing the Zhang family, Lin Qing suddenly remembered the Xiao family, so he stood on tiptoe with a bamboo pole and looked around, looked around and didn't find anyone from the Xiao family, and a thought flashed in his mind: Uncle Zhao shouldn't forget the Xiao family, right?

Not only did Zhao Dameng forget the Xiao family, but everyone in the village probably didn't think of the Xiao family now.

Although no one informed the Xiao family, the Xiao family also knew about going to the bamboo forest to dig bamboo shoots, but the family was not willing to go.

Mrs. Xiao originally intended to let Wang Hongxia take her two daughters Xiao Rong and Xiao Mei to dig, but Wang Hongxia disagreed, she wanted to work in the livestock shed in front, where did she have the time to dig bamboo shoots. What's more, Xiao Rong and Xiao Mei sisters were reluctant to go, and pushed the matter to their father Xiao Yi, but they were pointed at and scolded by Mrs. Xiao, and the two little girls were scolded and cried.

Wang Hongxia protected the child, but she was holding back her anger in her heart for the past two days, and she couldn't hold back for a while, so she simply scolded the old lady. After scolding Mrs. Xiao, she was ruthless, turned her head and scolded Xiao Yi for not being responsible, her daughter-in-law and daughter-in-law couldn't protect her, and she was really blind to him at the beginning.

This time, Wang Hongxia was really angry and irrational, she didn't take Mrs. Xiao in her eyes at all, and tore off her husband Xiao Yi's face and stepped on the soles of her feet, until Mrs. Xiao was half angry, Xiao Yi clenched her fists and glared at her with a blue face before stopping.

Wang Hongxia was still holding back the anger in her heart, and when she saw Mrs. Xiao and her husband Xiao Yi, she wanted to go up and take a bite, but finally out of sight, she pulled the two daughters to the livestock shed in front.

Hu Xiujuan and Zhang Tao are in the livestock shed, the two families are now on the same page, you can't tolerate me, I can't tolerate you, it's okay not to meet, no one can help it when they meet, a few words mixed up, the two sides immediately scolded, and scolded until the person who dug the bamboo shoots came back, and the two sides were afraid to shut up.

After lunch, when he went to dig bamboo shoots, Zhao Dameng finally remembered the Xiao family.

patted his head, Zhao Dameng scolded himself: "My brain is muddy!" At the same time, he hurriedly asked his son Zhao Yihai to run to inform.

After Mrs. Xiao got the notice, her face became more and more bad, and as soon as Zhao Yihai left, she scolded: "I have forgotten about the plague for a long time, why do you think about it again in the second half of the day? ”

The nature of getting a notice is different from not getting a notice, if you really don't go, you won't have a share of the bamboo shoots, and those bamboo shoots are not an exaggeration to say that they are life-saving food for the Xiao family, who are now overstretched. In desperation, Mrs. Xiao had no choice but to let her son Xiao Yi go over to dig.

Xiao Yi didn't say no, but when he arrived, he made a mistake again, everyone else brought their own basket hoes, but the Xiao family didn't have anything. Just go empty-handed, how can you dig? You can't dig by hand.

Xiao Yi, who was angry and embarrassed, had no choice but to cheekily borrow a set of tools from Zhao Dameng and come back.

This time, it wasn't finished until it was dark, and the bamboo shoots in the bamboo forest were dug a lot, and the big guys were all tired, but the mood was very good.

The bamboo shoots that had been dug for a day were all piled up in the site at the head of the village, and they were piled up into a mountain, and the villagers who came back stood directly around in a semicircle, happily discussing each other, and Zhao Dameng took the list and began to distribute.

Xiao Lang didn't follow, said to Xiaozhu's father, and took Lin Qing home first, just because there were three fat bamboo civets hidden in his back basket, one was caught by Xiaozhu, and the other was knocked to death by Lin Qing with a hoe caused by Lin Qing's medicine.

The old lady was very happy when she saw these three bamboo civets, and even said that she would add dinner in the evening, and asked the six small bamboos to come over, and finally handed the bamboo civets to her uncle to clean up, and took the family's back basket and Xiao Lang to the village to bring their bamboo shoots back, which could be used to stew soup at night.

After dividing the bamboo shoots, it was already dark, and each family had a lot, so they could save some food, or take salt to pickle them, which was enough to eat for a long time.

Xiao's family was brought by Wang Hongxia with her two daughters, and Mrs. Xiao said that her son was tired for a long time, and he didn't have to get anything and bothered him to go, pointing to Sang scolding Huai and forcing Wang Hongxia to come and get it.

Wang Hongxia had an idea in her heart, took the bamboo shoots and hid them on the way back, told the two girls not to talk nonsense, and walked for three or five minutes out of the place where she hid things, and happened to meet the two female intellectuals in the village, Zhu Xiaoli and Li Hua.

The two of them were walking in front, and when they heard the footsteps, they glanced back, and saw that it was Wang Hongxia, and they didn't pay attention to her with disdain, and still talked to themselves.
