Chapter 120: The Big Truth

Lamei: "I didn't hear it from anywhere, but it will definitely happen in the future." Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 infoI'm here tonight, and we all remember: Thirty years later, people will no longer hoe the ground, there is no grass in the ground, and the little seedlings will grow 'poop' drips. ”

"Is it because of the recitation of 'the grass dies and the seedlings are alive'?" Wang Guilan said.

Lamei: "That's right, otherwise how would the grass die?"

"Where do people go to pull weeds when there is no grass growing in the fields?" asked the cows?" someone in the shadows asked.

Lamei: "At that point, the cows will no longer eat grass. No one pulls the weeds. The grass in the ditch on the edge of the ground was half a man's height, and it died in autumn, and a fire was all kindled. ”

"Coax!"

The crowd burst into laughter, and the mood turned around and returned to the way it had been.

"Tut-tut, it would be nice if we had such good grass here. I had to go around all morning pulling the basket of grass, and I didn't know if I could pull it all. Someone said enviously.

"Cows are just grass-eating things, what can you feed them if you don't eat grass?" someone asked.

At that time, all the cattle and sheep were raised in captivity, and they were all fed with compound feed for fattening. ”

"What are you doing when you fatten, what are you doing with fattening?" asked the people curiously.

Lamei: "Yes, I feed the cattle just to eat meat." Beef is more expensive than pork!"

"What is the land used for?"

Lamei: "With an iron ox!"

"What does the Iron Bull eat?"

Lamei: "Don't eat anything, just drink oil!"

"Hahaha......"

"Hahaha......"

"Hahaha......"

The laughter of the people lifted the roofs.

"Alright, alright, Lamei, you can blow the cowhide and the iron ox to the sky. Wang Guilan wiped the tears from the laughter in her eyes: "Your big words made everyone's tears laugh, which is more enjoyable than watching a play." ”

"Hey, Lamei, your big words make everyone laugh, if you can make everyone cry, you will be the famous mouth of our team. "Someone proposed.

"Yes, let's talk about it, let's see if we can make everyone cry?"

Lamei smiled: "Under the New Year, it's not good to cry." ”

Wang Guilan: "Speaking of having fun, don't you cry and laugh when you watch a play? Some people still love to watch crying scenes! In this way, don't ask too much, as long as you can say cry one, you will win!"

Lamei thought to herself: Just say it, the age that I said earlier was relatively far away, and this time I said it was close, and the prompt reminded people.

"I can say it, crying swollen eyelids don't allow me to rely on me. Lamei cleared her throat and continued:

"In the future, there will be a great famine, and the bark and blades of grass will be eaten up, and there will be no food left, so they will crush the ears of corn, peanut skins, and all kinds of straw, and make starch from the noodles under Luo, and then use starch to mix with wild vegetables and steam nests. The steamed nest dispersed as soon as it moved, and people held it to eat.

"When the straw was finished, I ate the corn cob husk again. Soak the skin of the stick until soft, rub out the contents with a washboard, and precipitate into a starch steamed nest.

"I can't eat enough just this, people are hungry and yellow-skinned. The ribs on the chest are like a washboard, and you can see clearly. The belly is thin and transparent, and you can see clearly what food is in the stomach.

"It is common for people to starve to death, and some people can leave this world forever if they walk and fall.

"There was an old lady who was so hungry that she couldn't walk, so she took the cotton wool out of the futon on the kang and ate it. The cotton wool was stuck in her throat, and she couldn't go up or down, so she opened her mouth and stared, and was starved to death.

"One family was so hungry that they dug up a kind of mud called 'Guanyin soil' from the river to satisfy their hunger, but after eating it, they couldn't even pull off the feces and suffocated a child of several years old to death. ”

"Say no more!"

Captain Wang Guilan was already in tears. Because there was wine covering his face, he said all the words in his heart:

"Let's tell you the truth, the grain that our team harvested last autumn has already been eaten up according to our eating method this winter.

"You may have heard that more than half of the production team in our village has changed to steamed bull's eye sockets. The reason why our team hasn't changed is because ...... Belch...... It's because ......"

Wang Guilan burped twice, spewed out a breath of wine, thought about it for a long time, and still said what she wanted to say but didn't dare to say:

"Everyone knows that Lamei is protected by a white-haired grandmother. Since she lives in the team site, the white-haired grandmother also protects our team!

"Let me tell you a strange thing: this year, our team planted a lot of carrots and filled a cellar. After steaming for a period of time, everyone disliked it and didn't want to eat it.

Later, it was not steamed, not because everyone did not want to eat it, but because there was a strange thing: the carrots in the cellar were often scarce for unknown reasons, while the corn in the hoarding was increased for unknown reasons.

"We guess that it is likely that the white-haired grandmother saw that everyone didn't like to eat carrots, so she secretly tossed them into corn.

"This is the favor of the white-haired grandmother to everyone, and for this reason, I didn't let the canteen be steamed in the small nest.

"Now that the carrots are gone, the white-haired grandmother has nothing to toss, and it's hard to say whether to give it or not.

"This winter was surprisingly cold, the wheat was sown late, it didn't take root, and a lot of it froze to death. I don't know what the wheat harvest will look like next year. I...... I...... I'm worried that everyone will go hungry. ”

"Isn't there food from above?" someone asked.

Wang Guilan: "What to dial." Let's tell you the truth, from the time it became a canteen to the present, all I ate was grain collected from each household. During the Chinese New Year this year, the team sold two fat pigs and killed one.

"Now there are only two shell pigs left in the pigsty. I was reluctant to feed food, so I could only feed the swill in the canteen. There is no hope for next year's spending. ”

"It's been a long time, let's roll the fingers of the flatbread, eat it yourself?"

Wang Guilan: "That's it, if you don't come back next spring, everyone will starve." ”

Zheng Jindong also drank too much wine, and then said: "The only thing I hope for now is that the white-haired grandmother will give us food as she did in the past." Otherwise, it's ugly!"

Wang Guilan glared at him: "You can't point to that, you can only follow it if you have it, and if you don't have it, you have nowhere to go." We have to say what we have in reality. ”

People look at me, I look at you, and they all understand what the captain and the custodian are saying. Everyone also has a scale in their hearts: how much autumn grain is confiscated, and the carrots tossed by the white-haired grandmother are eaten all winter. If you can't toss it without carrots, and if you don't give it up again, starvation is inevitable.

As soon as the atmosphere fell, it came down. People were in no mood to laugh anymore and went home.

On this night, most housewives did not sleep soundly, for fear of getting up late in the fifth watch, and queuing until dawn when they went to the canteen to cook dumplings. Because it was two large pots of cooking, people came one after another, but it didn't seem particularly crowded, and every family ate dumplings at dawn.

After the firecrackers on the team sounded, the cadres first went to the homes of the martyrs and military families to celebrate the New Year. Then there are male and female members who go door-to-door to greet each other.
