Chapter 3 Get the Food Back

Early in the morning of the second day, Chun Gui slaughtered the remaining chicken, half of it was boiled in soup, and the remaining half was dried and hung in the kitchen with the hare sent by Cheng Qiyou. I don't know how Zhixing said to the two little ones, since that day, the admiration in Zhimin's eyes has become stronger and more sticky.

In the two days, several children drank chicken soup and ate chicken, with a smile on each face, and left a bowl of chicken soup every day when the spring returned, Zhixing waited in the yard at night, and when it was dark, Cheng Qiyou would come over, first stuff the things in his hand into Zhixing's arms, there were wild vegetables and wild duck eggs, and then he was willing to drink the bowl of chicken soup.

Chungui looked at him through the window, the child was still thin, and after drinking the soup, he stubbornly disappeared into the night, Yue Chungui shook his head and sighed.

Soon it was the last day of the grain release, and there was a long queue at the village chief's house early in the morning. A few small ones sat obediently and skillfully, and Chun Gui saw that they were bored, thought for a while and said, "Zhixing, take a charcoal pen and a piece of paper that you usually use to copy books." ”

Zhiping raised his head and said, "Sister-in-law, what are you going to do?" ”

The six-year-old child was supposed to be enlightened, and if the Liu family was here, they should send people to the school at this time.

Chungui took the pen and paper, hugged Zhiping and said softly: "Sister-in-law taught us Zhiping to draw." ”

The profession of kindergarten teacher must be proficient in eighteen kinds of talents, can sing and dance, can both lift the pen and paint, the first day of the spring return to the office on the hand painting to win the hearts of a group of children.

Now too, the charcoal pen is gently outlined on the rough rice paper, and in the tactful strokes of the pen, a cute red panda simply falls on the paper, and Zhiping Zhimin has already exclaimed.

After returning to the spring, he rubbed the details of the red panda with the tip of the charcoal, and then looked at it, and the fine fluff was also drawn.

Zhixing picked up the rice paper with a shocked face: "Sister-in-law...... Sister-in-law, you're amazing! ”

Chungui smiled: "My sister-in-law learned it secretly, if you like your sister-in-law, you can draw it again!" ”

As she spoke, she picked up the pen again, and sketched out a simple landscape map with three or two strokes.

Zhixing is still sighing: "Sister-in-law, I see that the picture on the fan in Lao Xiucai's hand is still well drawn by you!" ”

Fan Diagram ...... Chungui's heart moved, but he said: "How can my sister-in-law be so powerful, Lao Xiu is good at learning, and his things must be good." ”

"Really!" Zhixing was anxious: "Sister-in-law! Your drawings look much better! ”

Chungui smiled, glanced at the group at random, and the smile stopped.

"Zhixing leads to Zhimin." Saying that, he hugged Zhiping up: "Let's go and line up." ”

Zhiping nodded obediently, leaned on Chungui's shoulder, folded the painting with his hands around and hid it in his cuffs.

The last time the grain was released, the whole village still dragged their families to line up, because it was the last time to put grain, the county government directly let go, and the village chiefs of the villages were assigned to distribute it together.

Unlike other people in the village, Liu Quan is not in a hurry at all, he has already calculated, there are only three people in their family, there are not many people, but even if three people die in his cousin's family, there are still four cubs left, and he took the grain and divided the seeds today, that is, a full seven! He crossed his fingers and was blindly happy, not even noticing that the eyes of the people around him were full of disdain.

Behind her is Cai Zhen in the village, who lost her husband a few years ago, and is holding her seven-year-old only son in her hand. Looking back, it happened to be Chungui holding Zhiping, Zhixing led Zhimin over, an adult and three children were forced to dig wild vegetables by grabbing grain not long ago, but they all raised their heads with their chests up, and they looked Zhouzheng.

Cai's disgust for Liu Quan was even worse, and when he saw this, he hurriedly greeted Chun Gui: "Girl, hurry up to my sister!" ”

As soon as these words came out, the people around them looked back, and when they saw that it was the children of the Liu family, they all had some distress in their eyes.

It's pitiful, my father and mother were bullied by my cousin when I died, and then look at Liu Quan, and I still have the face to receive food, something that has no heart!

Seeing that Chungui led the children over, some of the people who had received the grain seeds and planned to go home also stopped and gathered together to talk about small words.

Chungui swept around, had a number in his heart, and hurriedly showed a smile to Cai's: "Sister Cai, Xiaobao's illness is cured, right?" ”

He lowered his head and looked at the little fat dun, and continued: "The face is ruddy, and there is no problem when you look at it." Two months ago, you always liked to run to Zhixing's side, and when you received the grain and planted early rice, you also asked Zhixing's brother to teach you to read and write! ”

Cai's bundle of sending her son to school has not saved enough for many years, and her son wants to read and write, so he often comes to ask Zhixing, Zhixing and Cheng Qiyou review together, and they don't mind taking a child.

As soon as Chun Gui finished speaking, the smile on Cai's face never stopped: "Ouch, that's really troublesome for your family!" While she was happy, she wanted to vent her anger for Chungui, and her eyes turned to Liu Quan, who had a bad face at the moment.

"Yo, I said who is this, it turned out to be Uncle Liu!"

Liu Quan's face had already changed when he saw Chungui coming over with his three children, but he also had some confidence.

These children of the Liu family are blessed by their parents so that they don't know anything about the state of the world, and if they say it well, they are simple, and if they say it badly, they are stupid, so he has the courage to coax, the world is difficult, he can deceive is his ability, not to mention that he has already sent two chickens under the nose of the village, and the two chickens on a dry day are precious, and no one can blame him!

Thinking like this, he tentatively spoke: "Spring return girl, why don't you tell your uncle if you want to get food, uncle will help you get it." ”

didn't expect that Yue Chungui didn't need to open his mouth at all, and Cai's suddenly laughed: "I said Uncle Quan, Chungui doesn't come to get food by himself, what do a few little ones eat, eat your two hens that can't lay eggs?" ”

"That's not good, the two chickens still have to be returned to Uncle Quan in their original form when they lay their eggs." Chun Gui didn't look at Liu Quan's flushed face, and said humbly: "Our family can't ask for Uncle Quan's chickens for nothing." ”

Liu Quan smiled fakely: "What is polite to Uncle Quan!" ”

Chungui smiled lightly: "My family's food is stored for us, and it makes no sense to need Uncle Quan's chickens." ”

The smile on Liu Quan's face froze, and he subconsciously retorted: "Joke, I.... Why should I store your food? ”

But his eyes avoided again and again.

As soon as these words came out, there were more murmuring voices around. In the past two days, everyone has heard the rumors that the children of the Liu family were robbed of food by Liu Quan, some people believe it, and some people don't believe it. The words came from the old people in the village, and some people were curious and asked Li Zheng his father, Li Zheng and his father smoked dry tobacco with a black face throughout the whole process, everyone knows that this matter is true, after all, Li Zheng and his father are more decent people, and he has paved the way for the bridge in the village since he was young, if someone didn't lose his conscience, he would be so angry that he couldn't speak.

Looking at Liu Quan's shameless appearance again, everyone shook their heads, in the year of the catastrophe, there are really people who do such inhumane things, or relatives with the same roots and ancestors!

I don't know who in the team muttered: "He has the face to cheat on your food, why can't you eat his chickens." ”

"That's it, if you want me to eat all the chickens, pluck all the chicken feathers and give them to a few small ones to make shuttlecock kicks."

Liu Quan's face immediately turned dark: "She is a girl, and her words are unfounded, how can you believe her?!" ”

Chun Gui immediately raised his eyes and said blankly: "Uncle Quan, didn't you say that you would help us get food........

"When did I say that!" Liu Quanhu shirked again and again with a face, moved two steps forward, and vowed to dissociate himself from Chungui and his party.

Without evidence, who can listen to a girl's words?!

Chun Gui looked like he didn't expect Liu Quan's style, lowered his head, held the child and wiped his face with one hand.

This scene completely fell in the eyes of Liu Changxin and Li Zheng, the village chiefs who were at the forefront of the grain.

The head of the village of Liu was already of the same clan as the Liu family, and he shook his head again and again when he saw this, he was still a little unconvinced when he was talking to his father to explain this to him, the people in the village were all grown up by him, although there were some scheming people, but he didn't dare to joke with human life. But now what Liu Quan is doing is to make the Liu family extinct!

Chungui sneered in her heart, she didn't do anything. She didn't take her younger siblings to ask for food in public, and she didn't even go to the village chief to cry and cry, the only thing she did was to answer the questions of the old people in the village on the way to pick wild vegetables.

As for how it spreads in the village in the past two days, it's none of her business!

Zhixing knew that his sister-in-law would definitely have something to do today, and he had already ventilated with Zhimin, and at this moment, the two children were holding hands, and they were hanging their heads and red eyes with Chungui. Zhiping was young, and when he saw his sister-in-law's eyes red, he was already so anxious that he couldn't do it, and his round eyes blinked and he was about to cry. He cried silently, only shed tears vigorously, his little hands tightly clutched Chungui's cuffs, bead-sized tears fell on his thin face, and he felt distressed when he looked at it.

Frightened, Chun Gui hurriedly patted the child's back, and was so distressed that this child's empathy was too powerful!

"Ouch, village chief, Li Zheng, look at this child Chungui, he is so young that he doesn't know if he has been blinded!" Cai's heart was so distressed when he saw the child crying, he reached out and hugged Zhiping over to coax him.

"When Brother Liu and Sister-in-law Liu were there, Zhiping had a white and tender face, and it was not uncommon for anyone in the village to see it, and now he is thin like this!"

There was a sigh in the crowd, natural disasters were unavoidable, the Liu family husband and wife and the eldest son gave up their lives for a few small ones, and finally escaped the natural disasters, but several children were going to die in the hands of man-made disasters, and everyone felt even more disgusted when they saw Liu Quan.

Liu Quan's face turned even more red, and the sound of pointing and pointing kept coming into his ears, so anxious that he hid next to his wife and children again and again.

Who still believes in his two cowardly old hens?

Lizheng's daughter-in-law didn't give him face, so she fished out three corns directly from the pot, crossed Liu Quan and stuffed them into the hands of the three children, and then took Zhiping's kind eyebrows and coaxed: "Zhiping don't cry, my aunt will give you corn." ”

Zhiping looked at Chungui with a pout, then looked at the corn in his hand, and held it in his two small hands to hand it to Chungui tremblingly: "Sister-in-law is hungry...... Sister-in-law eats. ”

The crowd around didn't look sad about it.

At this moment, Chun Gui also dissipated all the confusion in his eyes, and put the corn back into Zhiping's hand, which was worthy of a tear.

"Uncle Quan took the food he took in front of him, but this time it really doesn't work, Uncle Quan borrowed our chickens and never laid eggs, it doesn't matter if I'm an adult, a few children are already hungry and can't hold on."

She spoke softly, and her body was so thin that she was about to fall down at any moment.

Hearing this, Zhimin hurriedly wiped his tears, choked up, and said: "Grandpa the village chief, you can share a little food with us, my sister-in-law was so hungry that she fainted two days ago, we are small, so we don't need to eat a lot!" ”

Zhixing's eyes were also red, and he turned his head to wipe his sister's tears, and Zhiping in Lizheng's daughter-in-law's arms also cried.

The boys and girls in this family were all so hungry that they were left with a dry one, and they were all red-eyed at the moment, begging for food to make ends meet.

Cai Shi couldn't help wiping his eyes and scolded bitterly: "Liu Quan, are you still a person!" ”

Many people have survived the drought, but these children almost starved to death in the wolf-hearted lungs of their relatives, and the anger of the people around them has risen invisibly.

"That's it! Just after the drought, you will snatch the rations of your nephews and nieces, and you are not afraid to dream of Brother Liu and sister-in-law Liu in the middle of the night! ”

"Didn't you hear Zhimin say, I fainted from hunger two days before the spring return, if I didn't wake up, Liu Quan would have to take a life on his back!"

"Look at the way he looks today, if it weren't for Chungui bringing the child over, he would still have the face to receive those few portions of food, I said how could he be so kind to help the Liu family get the food at that time, and dare to take it to his own home."

The crowd all learned about Suosuo, and all of them reached Liu Quan's ears, Liu Quan's face was red and white for a while, and the family trembled and huddled together without saying a word. He didn't say a few words at all, and the name of grabbing food was directly confirmed.

Someone answered: "Hurry up and let Liu Quan return all the previous grain!" ”

The people around echoed: "That's it, hurry up and go back!" ”

Liu Quan couldn't avoid it, so he simply gritted his teeth and broke the jar: "Those have already been eaten!" ”

Through a hint of ridicule in Chungui's eyes, it was really someone else's food that didn't feel distressed to eat.

The village chief was already so angry that he couldn't speak, and sat on his chair and closed his eyes.

Everyone's eyes were full of contempt, and they all took a few steps back to stay away from Liu Quan, for fear of touching him or something.

As if he had expected something, Li Zheng put a large bag of grain on the table and exhaled a few times with a calm face.

After relieving himself, he said to Chun Gui: "Girl, it stands to reason that I should return all the grain that the animal took on your behalf, but you also saw what the situation was. The above county yali is distributed according to the head of the village, and each bag is marked with people, Uncle Lizheng, I really can't take out ......"

Chungui's eyes flashed, and he continued: "Grandpa the village chief, Uncle Lizheng, I and my younger brothers and sisters are already satisfied with today's food." Her eyes were full of gratitude: "The drought has passed, and my family has a field and land, and I can feed ......."

"Nope." Li Zheng suddenly interrupted, and his eyes were full of relief: "If you do something wrong, you will be punished, not to mention that Liu Quan can go to the yamen if this matter is serious." ”

He didn't look at Liu Quan's shrinking appearance, picked up the wooden spoon and added three more portions of rice to the bag.

"Today, I will divide Liu Quan's three portions of grain to you, and this matter will be settled."

Chungui was overjoyed on his face, but his heart sank slightly, the people here are too simple, and they will be revealed if they don't make a fuss. She sighed in her heart, she should have expected it.

Forget it, I got some more food.

After a while, she glanced at Liu Quan, and said in a calm tone: "With food, Uncle Quan will let Zhixing return the chickens that laid eggs for us later." ”

As soon as the words fell, Li Zheng's father suddenly coughed with a gloomy face, and Li Zheng hurriedly spoke: "Since he lent those two chickens to you for laying eggs, then return them when the eggs are laid!" After speaking, he looked at Liu Quan's face and changed: "As for the grain you ate from your nephew and niece's family, wait for the new season of early rice to be planted!" ”

Liu Quan's face was pale, he lost the grain, and the two old hens didn't come back, his face was all lost, he raised his head and glared at Chun Gui fiercely, stepped forward and picked up the seed head and walked away quickly.

The remaining wife and children also blushed and muttered thickly, and hurriedly followed.

A smile flashed in Chungui's eyes, and he returned the egg after laying it, and if he didn't lay the egg, he wouldn't return it.

"The boss of the Cheng family."

Li Zheng suddenly clicked on Cheng Tianbao, who was at the back of the line.

Cheng Tianbao hurriedly responded.

Chun Guiyin lost the smile in his eyes, glanced at Liu Quan's family who walked away, wiped away his tears, hugged Zhiping back and glanced back, and saw Cheng Qiyou, who was behind Cheng Tianbao and his wife, thin and tall, who was already half a head taller than Cheng Tianbao, and was also looking at her lightly.

The two looked at each other across the long line, and Chungui remembered that day he had advised him to think about how to shirk and eat chicken, and now he saw it in his eyes. Thinking about it, Chungui couldn't help but smile a little smugly at him.

Cheng Qiyou was stunned for a moment, pursed his lips, and returned to calm and hid in the crowd.

Li Zheng divided out a single portion of grain and seeds and put it aside, and his face became even more ugly:

"This one belongs to your brother Qi You."

He looked around: "No one in this world has distributed the grain and returned it to your family!" ”

The crowd that had just calmed down was once again sensational, and they all cast their eyes on Cheng Tianbao and the couple.

Li Zheng said this directly, and did not save face for Cheng Tian.

Chun Gui's eyebrows moved, and he cleaned up Liu Quan, is this going to clean up the next one?
