Chapter 6: A Meal Exhausts the Hero

Zhang Ran was woken up by a straw stick that the puppy poked into his nostrils.

While pulling out the straw stick in his nostrils, he rubbed his nose, and said weakly to the little dog: "Uncle is sleepy now, you can play by yourself......"

"Would you like to eat?" The puppy asked.

"Yes!"

As soon as he heard the word "eat", Zhang Ran instantly became sleepy, only to feel that his stomach was hungry like a fire, and he got up and patted the grass clippings on his body while asking what to eat.

"It's okay to have a meal, but you have to help our family for a day!" Lu Yan said outside the door.

A meal stumps a hero!

Zhang Ran screamed in his heart, speechless and choked, just living in a livestock shed and sleeping on straw, and now he has to sell his labor force for a meal - thinking of this, he wants to cry without tears.

"Hurry up, I didn't expect you to be such a big man, and the plow is not as good as my sister!"

The little dog hung a string of snot, looked at Zhang Ran with an expression of disgruntle, and shouted: "I'm blind for those bowls of porridge in the morning......"

Zhang Ran, who had a rope on his shoulders and was dragging the plow forward desperately like an old cow, heard this, thinking of the poor corn paste gruel with only a few wild vegetables in the morning, his face was full of grief and grievances that could not be humiliated, and his heart said that for such a few bowls of porridge, I am now helping your family plow the land like an ox, what do you still want? Bullies don't bring anything like this!

He swore that he had no ill feelings towards the bear child, but the little dog had suffered the greatest humiliation in his life, and he wanted to find an opportunity to let the stinky boy taste what it was like to stir-fry meat with bamboo shoots.

"Dog, go dig some wild vegetables or something, don't be idle here!"

Lu Yan, who was in charge of the plow, said, while cooperating with Zhang Ran, who was pulling the plow, desperately pushed the plow forward, and his thin body was almost completely pressed on the plow handle, which was not easier than Zhang Ran who pulled the plow.

Beads of sweat ran down her thin black cheeks and down her thin neck into the patched clothes.

Zhang Ran pulled the plow and looked back at this scene, and then looked at Lu Yan attentively.

She should be less than twenty years old, but she looks much older than she actually is, and she looks good, but she is too thin, and her skin is too rough, and she looks like an orange peel that has lost too much water, and even her eyes do not have the aura that a girl should have.

"Plough hard, what's so nice?"

Lu Yan found that Zhang Ran was looking at herself, and glared hard, but her black face was a little red.

Zhang Ran grinned and wanted to say something, but he really didn't know what he could say, so he began to gossip instead, asking about the situation in and around the village.

Most of the people in the village are surnamed Wang, and Lu Yan's family is a foreigner in the village.

"Then Baochang Wang seems to have an opinion about me? What's going on? Zhang Ran asked.

"All the land in this village belongs to Master Ma's family, and everyone in the village is tenants of the Ma family, except for the chief and his family-you fight the local tyrants in the eighth road to divide the land, in case the land of the chief is divided, then can they be satisfied with you?" Lu Yan said.

Zhang Ran was stunned, and said in his heart, no wonder he felt that Elder Bao looked at him last night with a bad look in his eyes, it turned out to be like this.

As for Master Ma......

Zhang Ran remembered a person in the history of the county: "Master Ma, is it Ma Chengbang?" The ancestor of the horse family who raised people! ”

"That's him!"

Hearing this name, Lu Yan's eyes were full of gloom, thinking of the more and more rents that his family had accumulated, and said in his heart that if he couldn't pay the rent again, he was afraid that those thugs of the Ma family would not be polite to him!

"It's really him!"

Zhang Ran clenched his fists excitedly, and he had the urge to look up to the sky and laugh!

In the history of the county, this old man Ma is also a celebrity.

According to records, the ancestors of the Ma family once raised people in high school, and the Ma family also made a fortune because of this, and at the time of the widest, the land of Quanyanggou Town, there were eight CDs of their Ma family.

But Ma Chengbang left a record in the history of the county, not all because he was the largest landlord in Yanggou Town, but because of his behavior of seeing the wind and steering the rudder.

According to the records of the county history, in the autumn of 39, that is, more than a year later, Yan'an finally sent a small team of several people to develop the base here.

After the arrival of the Eighth Route team, the first one found Ma Chengbang and carried out policy propaganda against him, persuading him to stop the horse from the precipice and support the revolution.

Ma Chengbang agreed very happily, not only gave the land in his hand to the people of the Eighth Road, but also took the initiative to donate money and materials to help the team build the team.

But soon after, the Japanese settled in Dongjiang County, Ma Chengbang became a traitor as soon as he turned his head, and set up a puppet army by himself.

It's just that even so, after the victory of the Anti-Japanese War, because this guy's position was not firm enough, he was still punished for the crime of traitor, and he was dragged to the execution ground and targeted!

When he saw this history, Zhang Ran couldn't help but feel that this Ma Cheng was not a bad person, he just wanted to speculate, and he should not have ended up being shot.

But at this moment, Zhang Ran is no longer in the mood to sigh for Ma Chengbang's fate, because he knows that he has found the fastest shortcut to change his current situation!

"The real Eight Roads can bluff Ma Chengbang one by one, can't I bluff him with this fake Eight Roads? It doesn't make sense! ”

If you can knock out something from Ma Chengbang, not to mention more, let this guy pay for building a house for himself in Yanggou Village, get some land, and support himself, it will definitely be no problem!

Thinking of this, Zhang Ran couldn't help but laugh out loud, he was worried that even if he was under the banner of the Eighth Route Army, he was alone after all, and he had to keep a low profile, otherwise he would encounter a hard stubble or something, and it would be over!

I didn't think that the soft persimmon of the legendary Ma Chengbang was by his side, if he didn't put a handful of wool, Zhang Ran felt that he was simply sorry for himself!

Then Zhang Ran found that Lu Yan was staring at him with burning eyes, and hurriedly touched his face with his hands, and sneered: "What? Dirty on my face? ”

Lu Yan shook her head and said with anticipation on her face: "Brother Balu, I heard that you Balu speak for our people everywhere you go, and divide the fields and land and food for us, is it true?" ”

If Lu Yan had asked this a few seconds earlier, Zhang Ran might not know how to answer.

After all, the real Eight Roads, of course, are fighting local tyrants to divide the fields, but he is just a fake Eight Roads!

But since he knows that the biggest enemy he faces is just the soft persimmon of Ma Chengbang, it is different!

"The ideal of our Eighth Route Army is to eliminate oppression and exploitation, that is, everyone has food, clothing, and land, and we will never allow a bully landlord like Ma Chengbang to exist!"

Zhang Ran patted his chest fiercely, and said righteously: "Don't say anything, big sister, let's go back to eat - when I am full, I will immediately go to Ma Chengbang and treat him with righteousness, I believe that I will be able to make him repent, agree with the policy of our Eighth Route Army, and then let me divide the land for everyone!" ”

Zhang Ran's appearance of judging the two of them in an instant made Lu Yan look straight.

However, after hearing Zhang Ran say the words "go back to eat", he immediately picked up the plow and said: "Plough the land first, and then talk about it after the land is cultivated!" ”

“……”

Zhang Ran was speechless: "Big sister, I will directly divide the land for you, isn't it as important for you to finish plowing the land?" ”

"Hurry up, don't talk nonsense!"

Lu Yan said, my heart said that as soon as you touch your mouth, I don't know if you can really give me the land, I know that as soon as I hear you say the word eating, my heart will be shocked!

Thinking of the scene of Zhang Ran drinking five or six bowls in one go, Lu Yan was really creepy.

Zhang Ran gritted his teeth and pulled the plow, while looking at the thin wheat seedlings and bean seedlings in the surrounding fields, he shook his head, and said in his heart that in a few decades, if anyone planted crops like this, he would quickly find a piece of tofu and kill him, otherwise it would be too embarrassing for the word farmer!

This is naturally due to the lack of fertilizer!

Thinking of fertilizer, Zhang Ran's eyes couldn't help but look at the mountain a few miles away!

Then he heard the screams of the puppy killing a pig.
