Chapter 21: Midnight Disputes
"Killed! Killed! A mournful male voice shouted in the field, accompanied by the barking of dogs in the village, which was particularly frightening. ◢ with ◢ dream ◢ small ◢ said Щщшlā
The big guys got up one after another, the timid children all cried, the chickens and dogs in the village jumped up, and torches poured to the place where the trouble was made, which was the land of Laizi's house.
It turned out that during the day, Qinghe's mother was embarrassed to say that she also came to help change the water, but seeing the clear water flowing and moistening the nearby land, her heart was not comfortable, and she also wondered how to steal some water.
So she cut off the water and blocked the waterway, and the water flowed into their fields. The canals that have just been built in the field are all very shallow ditches, which will not only seep water strictly, but also be easily blocked. It's just cheaper, Qinghe it.
When the others saw it, they were not happy and sneered while dredging the waterways. Within three sentences, a scuffle began. Li Zheng happened to come over and saw it, and severely reprimanded Qinghe and his mother, and ordered everyone to distribute water sources according to the distance of the fields.
Everyone collectively repaired the canal, chiseled bamboo poles, dug a few openings on the shore of the puddle, and raced against time to release water for irrigation. While flooding is slow and time-consuming, there's no better way to do it now, and it's a lesson that has been passed down from generation to generation.
Whose field is the turn, whoever will contribute a laborer to help the Fang family clear the wasteland, with two acres of land for one day. The big guys also agreed, but the people who were far away from the puddle of the Fang family muttered in their hearts, then, is it still our family's turn to water the ground?
No, Laizi is one of them.
Speaking of which, Laizi is also a well-known leper in Rongshu Village, who is lazy and greedy for money, which makes people extremely headache.
Tonight, in the middle of the night, while the villagers who were patrolling the waterways were dozing off, he secretly went to change the waterways to their fields.
This must not work, Fang Quansheng, who was patrolling the night, found out and scolded him fiercely. The two just fought.
Water is the life of the croppers, and it is the most sloppy. Laizi was so arrogant, and it also angered the other four night patrols, and everyone looked at it coldly, thinking that Quansheng was so strong, and it was good to beat Laizi to be angry.
But who would have thought that Laizi would come prepared, he took advantage of the fact that the big guy was not paying attention, he scooped up a wooden stick hidden in the ground and knocked it on Quan Sheng's head. Blood splattered from Quansheng's forehead, staining his face red at once, and against the backdrop of the torches, it was terrifying. He fell limply, and his strong body fell to the ground with a thud.
Everyone was shocked, and when they reacted, Laizi also trembled and stretched out her index finger to test Quansheng's snort, but it seemed that there was nothing.
He sat down on the ground in fright, and got up in a panic to run. The other night watchmen finally reacted, quickly grabbed him, and ran back to the village in a panic to find someone, which was the shouting ahead.
Raiko was pressed to the ground of his house by Donghu and Shi Song, mixed with mud, and the wolf bèi was abnormal.
When Shi Chong called someone, Quansheng's clothes were already half wet, and a few bold people stepped forward to find out that he was still angry, and hurriedly carried him to the town.
And Laizi was also pressed in the direction of the ancestral hall on the ridge lit by torches in almost the whole village.
Li Zheng was angry, but now it is serious to save people, and the water in the field still needs to be dredged again, so he rearranged people to patrol the night, and asked Lai Zi to be locked in the ancestral hall, waiting for dawn to see how the situation of Quansheng will be decided.
Fang Yuqian and Qingshu went out for a long time before coming back, and Guoguo and the others didn't go out. Fang Yuqian kept sighing after he came back, but he didn't say anything.
Aoki quickly clarified the cause and effect, and then asked everyone to go back to sleep. Fang Yuqian lay on the bed and tossed and turned, but couldn't sleep.
"O iniquity! actually killed people because of this, how can this be said to be good! It was a long time before he whispered in the dark.
Liang sighed and said, "Sleep." Don't think about it. ”
"Alas, I'm in a panic." Fang Yuqian stabbed Liang's back with his elbow, "In case the heyday doesn't work, I'm afraid that this kid Guoguo has an idea in his heart." ”
"You're still worried that you have an idea!" Liang was a little angry, "This is good, why did it depend on our family Guoguo again?" ”
"I didn't mean that, I ······" Fang Yuqian was short of breath.
"So what do you mean? Is there another rumor of bad luck in our family outside? That's why we're begging them to come with water? Liang was shocked, and the words spurted out.
"Eh, no wonder the grass is so rushing, I learned it from you." Fang Yuqian is rare to count, "Sleep, tomorrow's business, tomorrow's business, let's talk about it tomorrow!" ”
"If you want to sleep by yourself, I'll sleep with my daughter." Liang said that he was about to get up.
Fang Yuqian hurriedly stretched out his hand to suppress her: "What is this for?" Good end-to-end! This is a big problem today, isn't it uneasy for me to feel uneasy! He sighed deeply.
Liang also sighed when he heard this, but his tone was still a little stiff: "No matter how it is spread outside, this matter must not be related to Guoguo." ”
"No, go to sleep, it's almost dawn." Fang Yuqian tucked the quilt for the Liang family. On a July night, the air is as cool as water.
After putting the water all night, there was still half of the water in the puddle, and those who had already watered the ground happily helped the Fang family to open up the wasteland. Those who didn't have their turn also saw hope and planned to start moving all the timber out of the puddle.
And on the Quansheng side, it is said that it depends on his creation, and if he can wake up, he will be fine, and if he can't wake up, he really can't wake up.
Lai Zi was locked up in the ancestral hall, and Quan Sheng's family went to beat him up, but Li Zheng didn't stop him, of course, he didn't really want to stop him. If you don't get angry with others, this thing really doesn't end well.
Guoguo had breakfast, and Qingshu went to the mountains to continue picking honeysuckle. The flowers are blooming, and during this time, fruits or green trees are picked every day, and a lot of harvest is also harvested.
Guoguo's body was still a little weak, and Qingshu was not at ease, so he came to the Tongren Medical Center with honeysuckle on his back.
When Doctor Wang saw them coming, he asked Qingshu to go back first, and then took Guoguo to Quansheng's stretcher: "During this time, he is still inconvenient to move, so you can help take care of him, I will teach him by the side." ”
Quan Sheng was still lying in the infirmary, his little lady Xinghua had red and swollen eyes beside his bed, and she was exhausted after tossing all night. Quansheng is sleeping soundly. Xinghua heard the voice, woke up and saw Guoguo, she was very surprised, and when she heard Dr. Wang say this, her face was a little hesitant.
"For my apprentice's sake, I won't charge you for the consultation." Dr. Wang said calmly.
When Xinghua heard this, she was overjoyed, and she was about to kneel down as soon as her knees were weak.
Guoguo hurriedly supported her, and in the face of Xinghua's thanks, she made a big red face. She didn't know Quan Sheng and Xinghua, but she also heard about last night, looked at Xinghua's hair accessories, and guessed her identity.
"Sister-in-law, don't be like this, they are all from the same village, and they torture me. If you want to thank me, you should thank my master. ”
