221 The Poor

221 Poor people

Fu Fu sighed, jumped down the ditch, and waved the shovel to work with great energy. Fu Fuji spat out the butt of the cigarette, which was almost burning to his lips, and followed him down into the ditch. Today's words he thought about for a long time last night: Fu Fu wants to marry Yijin, of course, it is good, but for this reason, he will retire from the army and come back just to add a labor force to the family, but he will eat himself and use himself - besides, he is a son, and sooner or later he will have to give Yijin a family. It's better to let him make a name for himself in the team, and then he won't have to break the bank at that time, and if he has an NV son-in-law who is an officer, he will be even more comfortable in the township.

In case Fu Fu didn't become an officer, he naturally didn't have to fulfill his promise. If Fu Fu dies in battle--listen to the meaning of Wan Shou's words, there are still several big and evil battles to be fought in the near future--A single gold will not be a widow. In this small county in the south of the poor countryside, there is no concept of observance, but the value of the eldest girl and the widow of Zai Jiao is different.

Where did Fu Fu know the wishful thinking of the "Zhangren", and felt that his request had been realized, and he was a hundred times more energetic, and he worked harder and harder. During the conversation, Fu Buji also confided a lot of troublesome things, and the biggest annoyance was that the village chief was a little half-witted. The east and west villages of Meiyang Village do not deal with each other, and his words have little effect in the West Village, and only the things that the chief Jiāo has passed down on behalf of the villagers of the West Village do. It's not as responsive as in the East Village.

"After all, the militia captain is still a reasonable person, otherwise if he really does it, there will be no peace in this village."

The militia captain of Meiyang Village is an outsider from Xicun, a veteran, who was hit by an arrow in the Battle of Chengmai and injured his muscles and bones. His home is in the West Village. Because he is also a member of the village cadres, he has more jiāo sets with Fu Fuji.

Fu Fu said: "I think you should go to the county for a meeting and talk about this matter with the chiefs, and see what they have to say-the chiefs have a lot of ideas, maybe they will solve it for you." Hold it now, what if something happens in the future? ”

Fu Fuji said: "That's right. When you have a meeting tomorrow, you must talk about this outsider......"

As he was talking, he saw Fu Eryin rushing over in a hurry: "Quick! Jiang Wu is running away! After saying this, he turned around and ran.

When Fu Buer heard this, he immediately threw away his hoe, and climbed onto the ditch bank in three times and two times. He took the clothes hanging from the branches, turned his head and said, "I have something to see!" ”

Fu Fu saw that the master of the family was in such a hurry that he didn't even put on the straw sandals that he took off on the edge of the ditch, and he didn't know what was urgent. He now considers himself a "quasi-NV son-in-law", and he is very concerned about the affairs of the Fu family, so he quickly climbed up and put on straw sandals. followed all the way to the past.

When we arrived at the entrance of the village, a group of people had already gathered, and many of them had obviously come from the fields to watch the excitement, and some of them still had farm tools in their hands. There was a lot of noise in the circle, and I only heard the shouting and scolding of Fu Fuji Niang above everyone's voices.

Fu Fu curiously squeezed through the crowd and saw that it was Jiang Wu in the middle of the crowd. Fu Fu knew that Jiang Wu was a person, he had no land at home, and the couple rented a few acres of Fu Fuji's garden land, and they also worked for people on weekdays. He is one of the poorest households in the village.

A package was dropped on the ground and had already spread out, revealing a few tattered shirts, a few pieces of dried sweet potatoes, and two pairs of straw sandals. There is also a package next to it. A straw hat worn out when he was working was trampled on the ground.

A small man knelt on the ground crying and begging for mercy, the same ragged clothes and a disheveled appearance.

Fu Buji has already grabbed Jiang Wu, Jiang Wu is a small man, and he is often full and hungry, where is Fu Buji's opponent who eats enough every day and works hard. The Fu family's lady had loose hair, and her sleeve was torn. Obviously, before Fu Buji arrived, he had already fought with Jiang Wu and his wife.

Fu Buer grabbed Jiang Wu's chest, gave Jiang Wu a few old punches in a row, and beat him so that his neck shrank straight down, and he simply squatted on the ground, looking like a dead pig who was not afraid of boiling water.

"Jiang Wu! You kid doesn't know what to do! Fu Buji gasped and counted, "You and your wife are two big living people, there is no shortage of hands and feet, and you will raise two jī after taking heaven and earth, and you can't even pay over forty eggs!" zuihounòng is so bad that even jī is gone! This time, the sheep will be raised and loaned, and the heaven and earth will not be willing, and I will give you a guarantee before I lend to you! Okay, a few days later, I said that the sheep was lost-you want to leave, so how can I tell the heaven and earth to meet jiāo?! ”

Of course, there is a self-interest in this. He was the guarantor of the sheep's loan, and Jiang Wu had to compensate the principal and interest in full if he ran away from Fu Buer, and secondly, Jiang Wuzhu planted a few acres of garden land with Fu Buer, and Fu Buer originally thought that he was a guarantee loan as a threat, and forced Jiang Wu to accept the harsh sharing conditions. Now that such a cheap labor force has run away, it will not be so beneficial to rent it out.

Jiang Wufu was on the ground, and he didn't dare to speak. There are also people around who persuade and who read jokes. This Jiang Wu's second consecutive loan to the Heaven and Earth Society ended up with such a result, which is very bizarre. Especially for the egg jī loan, almost no one has ever made a loss. Even if the principal is repaid after 20 eggs are returned, all the eggs are underwritten, and feed that can increase the number of eggs laid is also provided cheaply, and when the eggs can no longer be laid, they will be repurchased, which is almost the same as heaven and earth will give money to people for nothing.

As for raising sheep, there is no difficulty, some grass is fed every day, and the children and old people at home are allowed to release it when they are out of the day during the day. If there is a shortage of manpower at home, it is okay to take it directly to the edge of the field when you go to the field and gnaw some weeds on the ridges. Although the common people are suspicious, they are not stupid, and after more than a year, of course they know that heaven and earth will sincerely help them to engage in production and increase income. So most people have little sympathy for a "loser" like Jiang Wu: the conditions are so good and they are messed up.

Moreover, he screwed up the loan for the second time, and the Heaven and Earth Society did not arrest him and torture him or directly take his wife and sell it - in the past, it was natural for creditors to do this, and no one could say that it was not. And the Heaven and Earth Society only limited him to pay off the principal and interest of the loan within six months, otherwise he would be sued in court.

"Master Fu, you should raise your noble hand when you are old...... Jiang Wu's wife knelt on the ground and begged bitterly, "We are really desperate, and if we continue like this, we will not be able to pay off the debts of the Heaven and Earth Society, so we have to go out to work......"

"Nonsense! As soon as you leave, where will the leaders of the Heaven and Earth Society go to find you? What debts are still to be paid? You're ill-intentioned! Fu Fuji scolded.

Jiang Wu argued: "Master Fu, you are Mingjian! Now we have a few acres of your family's garden, working day and night every day, but it is difficult to even eat enough to rent a child...... I don't have the money to repay the debts of the Heaven and Earth Society......"

Fu Buji's face suddenly couldn't hold back, and he was about to have a seizure, when the Fu family lady jumped up: "Okay, you two dog men nv!" So it's ours to plant for you, isn't it?! I don't know which one of those who had no conscience begged for our lord as a guarantee? Oh my God......" she said, sitting on the ground and crying. The scene became more and more lively.

In the noisy room, the police stationed in the room also crowded in:

"Don't look, don't look at it," he told everyone to disperse, "go down to the ground, go home when you should go home, don't block here one by one!" "Under his drive, the people scattered somewhat. However, there are still many people watching the excitement.

When Fu Buji saw that the police were coming, he felt that it was inconvenient to make any more noise, so he just kept a calm face: "You don't want to occupy my land, it's okay!" But you can't just walk away! Let's settle the previous accounts first! ”

The police stationed in the station knew what had happened: they ordered Jiang Wu and his wife to go back first, and they were not allowed to leave the village without permission. According to the latest household registration management regulations: if Jiang Wu and his wife want to leave the place of household registration in the village for a long time to work in other places, they must register their whereabouts and purpose in the village in advance, and then receive a certificate.

They owe a loan from the Heaven and Earth Society, and they originally belonged to the "key group". Now I want to slip away. If the police stationed in the police want to run their own "key groups", it is difficult to see on the monitoring report. couldn't help but scold Jiang Wu and his wife all the way home.

Fu Fu was always by his side, but he didn't say anything. He's seen a lot of things like that. A large part of Fu Fuji's fortune history was through small loan sharks. With this, he seized the land of many families in the village, and there were also those who fled. Fu Fu also followed Fu Buji to demolish the wood and thatch of the fugitive house, so as to recover some interest.

However, Fu Fuji saw that Heaven and Earth would no longer lend money on his own after giving small agricultural loans - he was far less superior to the Australians in terms of loan terms. What's more, after becoming the village head, he has to worry about the popularity of the village. The reputation of heavy profit exploitation is always very unpleasant.

He was watching, and suddenly saw Fu Yizhuang's figure flash by in the crowd. Fu Fu's eyes lit up, and he immediately followed--when he was sent to Bopu as a soldier, this Fu Yizhuang not only threatened them with a big knife along the way, but also beat and scolded them from time to time, and only gave them sweet potatoes...... When he thought of this, the boy who died in the middle of the road due to diarrhea appeared in front of him...... Fu Fu suddenly became angry and quietly followed.

When Fu Fu had dinner last night, he knew that Fu You's three families had planted their heels when they were levied in the autumn last year, and most of the land was confiscated, and the two Zhuang and the three Zhuang went to the city to become workers, leaving one Zhuang and Fu Yousan. Fu Yousan became a half-madman, and no one paid attention to him. Yizhuang guarded fifty acres of land to live, and the arrogance of the three families in the past was gone. Fu Fuji's family, up and down, felt raised eyebrows.
