Chapter 321: Occupy the Mountain
"How?"
"Not how."
Yue Feng snorted coldly beside him: "She brags a lot." β
"It's not as good as your sneering!"
"Woman."
"How about women?"
Yue Feng turned away and stopped talking.
Xiao Luzi glared at Yue Feng, and saw that he was wearing two thin clothes, his chest was high, and half of his neck was still exposed, so he quickly shrunk his neck and ran to get the things in the baggage.
As soon as he saw Li Yan coming out of the post shop, he immediately went over: "Son, it's better to wear a collar, don't get into the cold." β
Yue Feng also said: "That's true. β
Li Yan put on a collar.
The group of three continued to move forward.
When I arrived outside Huai'an, it was just before the beginning of the day.
The trio had not yet eaten, nor did they immediately enter the city, for their eyes were drawn to several settlements outside the city.
After a distance, you can clearly see several thatched huts outside the north gate, similar to barracks, longer and wider than ordinary houses, although they are only thatched huts, they look very strong, wooden stakes, beams, thatched thatched together, and ...... Slatted board?
When I got closer, I saw the slats clearly.
Standing at the door of the hut, you can see the plank bed, hay and quilts.
"Let's make it!"
A child walked past the three of them and walked straight to a corner of the hut.
When the child passed by, Li Yan noticed what the child was holding in his hand.
A bowl with a missing opening, inside is rice porridge, the porridge is not thick, and it is not clear, and there is a yellow, orange and orange steamed bun.
Come in through the North Gate.
In the clearing under the city walls, there are two other thatched huts, and not far away you can see the relief point where food is being distributed.
There weren't many people in line outside the relief point, just a few old people.
Li Yan stepped forward and took a look, there was still a small half of the food, but it was not too hot.
There are many huts inside and outside the city, but there are not many people, especially young and middle-aged men, and women are not even common, most of them are old people and children under the age of seven or eight.
Before leaving, I heard that Gu Kaizhi was nearby.
Li Yan and the three went to the place where Gu Kaizhi was, and it was said that Gu Kaizhi was leading people to clean the sewage ditch.
When I arrived at that place, I found a lot of people, men and women, the men were bare-legged, shoveling sludge and other things in the ditch, the women were pulling ropes or pushing away the things with carts, and there were also a few older children, helping to pull the empty frames back.
"By the way, the soap is mysterious, can I take a look at it next time?"
After a morning of riding in a donkey cart, Liu Wei finally came to Hongjia Village.
I went down at the entrance of the village.
The peach tree at the entrance of the village is in sight.
The branches are bare.
There were no leaves, but I could see a bird's nest on the branch.
No birds, just a nest.
When I went to the village, I didn't walk a few steps and saw a child, climbing a tree, the branches were quite thin, and he must not be able to bear the weight of the child.
Hurry up and let the child come down, but the child refuses, and has to take off the paper kite on the branch, that is, the kite.
Go around.
Jump up.
Take the kite.
Embarrassed.
Jumped a few times, just right - out of reach.
I was about to persuade the child to come down first, when I suddenly felt someone behind me.
The kite was taken down.
The child immediately jumped down, grabbed the kite and ran away.
When she turned to look at the person who was carrying the kite, the man was looking at her.
The tall man, with his neck crooked, twitched the corners of his mouth visibly awkwardly, and at the same time, his hands shook twice.
"I, I'm ......," the man pointed to the child who ran away.
Not far away, a woman came running: "Stone, don't you hurry back!" Don't run around if it's okay, don't frighten our host! β
"You've done me a great favor!"
"Master Chen, I have a way that can make you stay true to your original intention, open a boxing gym to accept apprentices, and at the same time, solve the livelihood problems of apprentices, this is what I mean by cooperation."
Chen Zhicheng's hand was on his head: "What kind of cooperation?" β
"Let's have a game of darts."
"What? What darts? What bureau? β
"The so-called dart bureau is to transport goods for people, from one place to another, from which a certain fee is charged, there are many goods, the road is long, the value is high, our charges are naturally high, of course, for safety, in recent years, it should only go to some places near Huai'an."
"Isn't that what it looks like now?"
"In addition to my goods, we also take goods from other stores."
Chen Zhicheng "snapped" and patted his head: "This is a big deal!" β
"The gym still accepts apprentices, and after three years, they can follow the team to darts."
"This ...... It's better than going to a restaurant...... Alas, it also depends on their intentions. β
"No, we don't teach disciples in vain, those who come to the gym to study, all of them will enter the dart game, and they will all be dart masters in the future, if we want to go to other places, we won't accept it."
The woman followed and said, "Don't worry about him, he's not going to be easy here." β
The woman knocked her head off.
went to Village Chief Hong's side, Sun Da was also there, took her letter, and has been busy with Hai Sauce recently.
Sun Da asked people to call two people.
I had already told Sun Da that if there was a suitable candidate, he would be included in his command, and seeing that the Chinese New Year was approaching, some people returned to his hometown one after another, and Sun Da really found two brothers in Hongjia Village.
The two Hongjiacun brothers chatted a few words respectively.
Sun Da asked her to go to the side again, and whispered: "There is a person, who also came back from outside, his brain is not very good, but it is not too much of a problem, he is very honest, he has a lot of strength, we don't have enough manpower, do you want to ......"
The "bottom line" came out in minutes.
The man named "Stone", in his early twenties, was not a "native", but a "native" from Hongjia Village.
He was adopted by a woman from Hongjia Village, who had not been out for many years, and the child had not been raised much, when she suddenly realized that something was wrong, the man persuaded her to throw the child away, but the woman refused, and finally, the man left, leaving only the woman and the child.
At the beginning of the year, Stone went out to work with the people.
At the end of the year, the shopkeeper didn't want him anymore.
Despite the tiring work and the least amount of money, no one wanted him.
She didn't say much: "You make it clear to him, we may not be able to come back for the New Year." β
The hairpin was eventually found in the classroom trash can.
And the girl hid in the classroom and cried for a long time.
For a long time.
For a long time.
She didn't dare to ask.
She didn't dare to say either.
At the end of that semester, on the way out of school.
She heard another classmate and asked the female classmate, "Did you see her take your hairpin?" β
"Nope."
"Then why?"
"She looks so poor and sour, it's not her, who else can it be?"
Behind her, she quietly quickened her pace.
She didn't dare to look at the female classmate, because the way the female classmate looked at her, in fact, was the same as the way she looked at the girl.
"Heyβ"
Suddenly, the picture in front of me disappeared.
Turning his head, he saw a person standing not far away.
"What is Shopkeeper Liu doing here?"
Li Niang beckoned to her and motioned for her to hurry up.
