Although after systematic treatment, Ermiao's mind is still sometimes clear and sometimes confused, she firmly remembers one thing, that is, her Fubao was taken to Licheng.

The rich family can't live without people, and in desperation, Daddy Niu and his wife have to move to the rich house to help him take care of Ermiao and jujube flowers.

The day is getting hotter and hotter, as soon as the sun comes out, the earth is like a fire, this day, the Zhuang people like it the most, taking advantage of the poisonous sun, the wheat is dry, after paying the public grain, the rest is their own.

This year's wind and rain are smooth, it is still a bumper harvest year, the grain is planted well, and then keep up with the chemical fertilizer, calculated, one acre of land can collect more than 700 catties of grain, and the rich family needs to pay nearly 2,000 catties of public grain for nine acres of land.

Early in the morning, the loudspeaker in the village sounded, "Folks, don't forget to dig wells, in order to support our national construction, it's time to pay public grain, from today on, the township grain station officially began to harvest wheat, and the big guy can send grain to the grain station." ”

Fugui was waiting for this day, he planned to hand over the public grain, plant the sticks in the ground, and make time to go to Licheng again.

Fugui pulled the cart over and began to put grain on it, this year the wheat harvest was more, more than 6,000 catties of grain filled the West House with Dengdeng, even if the public grain was called, the thousands of catties of grain in the house could not be eaten, all of them were set aside for their own family chewing, and the rest were all exchanged for money.

Now the life of the common people is good, in addition to the food that can not be eaten, there is spare money in their hands, what they want to eat and buy, not to mention how comfortable the life is, Fugui also plans to wait for Fubao to grow up, marry his son to a daughter-in-law, and then have a grandson, he and Er Miao will do nothing, and tease their grandson at home every day, such days are very beautiful to think about.

It's really that people are not as good as heaven, how could they have thought that such a thing would happen.

The ground row car is full, and it can't be loaded at all in one trip, in previous years, Fugui was pulled in front, and Ermiao was pushed in the back, but this year Ermiao couldn't do anything, she would just sit in a place in a daze.

As long as Er Miao can obediently be in a daze, she can rest assured, but she is afraid that her brain will be muddy and she will run outside.

Father Niu was in charge of pushing the cart, and the two sons-in-law ran several times, handed over the public grain of the two families, and after handing over the public grain, the next task was to plant corn.

If it doesn't rain, it can't be planted, but dry seeds affect the emergence of corn seedlings, and you need to pull water to plant, and the amount of work is large, and a car of water can't water a few seedlings, and at the end of a day, just pulling water can exhaust people to death.

Planting crops is in season, and autumn corn must be planted in the ground when the mango is planted, and the harvest will be delayed if it is late.

Seeing that the mango seed is about to pass, the summer solstice is approaching, the sun still seems to be on fire, the grass branches and leaves are wilted by the sun, and even the dogs are not happy, hiding in the shade and sticking out their tongues until they pant, and some villagers who can't hold their breath begin to pull water and order corn.

Fugui was so anxious that he was going to get angry, he had little labor at home, and he couldn't be tired to death if he wanted to pull water to light the cornfield, he squinted at the bright sky, and his face was bitter, "Dad, when do you say God can give a rain?" ”

"That's hard to say."

Daddy Niu smacked his dry tobacco pouch, and his face full of ravines had the same sadness as Fugui, "In previous years, this rain should have fallen a long time ago, and this year the drought has been a bit long." ”

Fugui: "Dad, other families have started to pull water and stick sticks, what are we going to do?" ”

As soon as he thought of pulling the water to make a stick, Daddy Niu's face was twisted into a chrysanthemum, and he sighed, "Wait a little longer, if it doesn't rain in two days, let's pull the water too." ”

"Okay." Fugui turned his head to look at Ermiao, who was sitting with his mother-in-law, and said, "Dad, do you remember, a few years ago, a man came to the village to look for a child, and he also lost a child. ”

Father Niu: "I remember, at that time, the missing person notices were all over the place, and I don't know if the person found the child in the end." ”

"No, the man is the one from the transport team on the north slope, driving a car, I heard that because I was thinking about my child, I was distracted while driving, and the car crashed into the mountain and died in a car accident."

"What? He's dead! Daddy Niu paused with his hand pinching the bags under his eyes, and only said with red circles in his eyes, "Poor thing." ”

If it's just someone else's business, Daddy Niu is sympathetic at most, and now he has lost a child in his own family, Daddy Niu empathizes, only to feel uncomfortable in his heart, the corners of Daddy Niu's mouth tremble, and finally he didn't control his tears, and the big cloudy tears fell directly to the ground, he was afraid, he was really afraid, his daughter was already mentally abnormal, don't have any problems.

"Dad, I suspect that the person who stole the child and the person who stole our Fubao are the same person, and when the stick is planted, I will go to Licheng again, if only I could find the child, although the unit is disbanded, but we just want to send the child home if we want to have a ninety-six law."

Crying is the best way to vent, Daddy Niu shed tears for a while, feeling more comfortable in his heart, he wiped the corners of his eyes with the back of his hand, and said in agreement: "Yes, it should be." ”

The sun was dazzling, and the rich and noble hands put up the pergola and looked into the distance, on the horizon, on the blue sky, there were a few white clouds floating slightly, "God." Fugui prayed, "Please, give me some rain." ”

The voice of wealth is also the voice of all the villagers, and the people who need to grow crops are looking forward to a timely rain.

God seemed to sense the call in everyone's hearts, in the middle of the night, there was a wind blowing, blowing more and more, rolling up the sand and dust crackling on the glass, thunder in the sky bones rolling and roaring, and then lightning tightened like a one, finally, the long-held God finally rained.

The pouring rain was very arrogant, it poured the rain down without any scruples, and after a while, the ground was white, and if you look out by the light of lightning at this time, you can still see the splash on the ground.

It finally rained, Fugui was overjoyed and fell asleep steadily.

A night rain drove away the heat in the air, Fugui slept comfortably, and when he woke up in the morning, there were still drops of water falling on the eaves.

"Daddy." Fugui's tone was relaxed, "It's raining at night, this rain is not small, it can be watered through the ground." ”

"Huh." Daddy Yan held the dry tobacco pouch in his mouth, and his eyes narrowed with joy, "It's through the ground, it's through the ground, if you can't go down to the ground in the morning, I'm afraid that the muddy water will let the rain seep down again, so let's start lighting sticks in the afternoon." ”

In the morning, Fugui prepared the corn seeds and tools, and after lunch, he went to the field with Father Yan.

Since the loss of Fubao, Ermiao can't eat, can't sleep well, and people can see that they have lost weight.

A rain, so that the air is much fresher, Er Miao seems to be very sober today, she sat at the door, fixed looking at the yard of wheat straw and the hen that was shaving with her paws, for a moment, gently asked Aunt Niu, "Mother, do you believe in retribution?" ”

The girl is a little bit better, and the mother is happy, and Ermiao's appearance today makes Aunt Niu believe that Ermiao will be better sooner or later.

Aunt Niu held the soles of her shoes, and the thread squeaked, "I believe, when your grandmother was alive, she told me a lot of stories, and some of your mothers also told you when you were young, if you want to listen, your mother will tell you again." ”

Ermiao's eyes never moved, "Mother, you can talk about it." ”

Zaohua heard it, moved a bench and put it next to Aunt Niu, she lay on Aunt Niu's knees, tilted her little head and said to Aunt Niu: "Grandma, I also listen." ”

Aunt Niu was afraid that the needle would prick the jujube flower, she put the sole of the shoe back into the sewing basket, with a kind smile at the corner of her mouth, and put her right hand on the little head of the jujube flower and followed her hair one by one, "Once upon a time, there was a dealer who sold cattle and killed cattle, usually liked to drink, every time someone asked him to slaughter a cow, he first broke the cow's mouth with his hand, pulled out the cow's tongue, went down with a knife, cut off the cow's tongue, and asked the owner to make him a snack, the cow had no tongue, and was tied to the stake and couldn't run, and it hurt so much that its screams from the throat made people unbearable to hear, You don't know, when the cow is going to die, they all have a premonition, and the cow tears keep flowing, and the cattle dealer sits next to him, until the owner prepares the meal, and he has eaten and drunk enough, and then he gets drunk and goes to kill the cow. ”

Jujube couldn't bear to hear it, she frowned her little nose, "Cruel, what about later?" ”

"This person is so ruthless, his violent reputation spread far and wide, people in ten miles and eight towns did not dare to marry his daughter-in-law, and then he bought a daughter-in-law in the field, the daughter-in-law was pregnant and gave birth to a child, the first two children were all girls, but they were deaf and dumb, they had tongues but could not speak, and then gave birth to a boy, not as good as the two sisters, they were eight or nine years old, they couldn't even walk, they crawled at the door of the house all day long, and the sound made by a mouth was like an old cow barking "moo", and the people in the village said that the family was retributed. ”

Jujube flowers are all uneven for the cow, "I really deserve it." ”

"There is also a person who repays the gratitude, and my grandmother will also tell you about it." Aunt Niu continued, "There was once a fox fairy, who had practiced for five hundred years, as long as he survived the catastrophe, he could turn into a human form, but this catastrophe was not so easy to cross, once he couldn't cross it, it would be annihilated, this day the fox fairy was crossing the catastrophe, that day, the thunder was rolling, just like the thunder last night, and she was about to be chopped to death, just at this time a scholar passed by, and the fox fairy hid under the scholar's robe, which escaped a catastrophe, and then the scholar married a wife and gave birth to a son, but his son was born stupid, Grow up to be a daughter-in-law, or a fox fairy to repay the kindness, not only married his daughter to the stupid son of the scholar, but also cured the stupid boy's illness in the end, if you want me to say, what is said is the same as planting melons and getting melons and planting beans and beans, that is, planting good causes and good fruits, the older generation didn't also say, good repays evil and evil retribution, it's not that it doesn't report, the time has not come, and the one who does evil will definitely not be able to escape in the end. ”
