Chapter 177: Set fire to the grain
Seeing Liu Jianfang crying and running out, Ming Ke's body that was about to change positions paused, and lowered his voice with a puzzled face:
"The female intellectuals in this village are really strange, she ran away after saying half of the words, I originally planned to change places with you and let you teach her!"
Amy snorted coldly, opened the textbook, and planned to ignore him, Ming Ke looked at her with a confused expression, she happened to see his expression with her peripheral vision, and sighed in her heart.
Then, she turned around, with a serious expression, and said to Minke in a low voice:
"Mingke, you know what? All girls don't want their boyfriends to talk to other girls, and even a simple hello will make my heart sour, so ...... Do you understand what I mean? ”
Ming Ke was fine at first, but later, his mouth grew bigger and bigger, and after Amy finished speaking, he said with some spirit:
"I see, don't you care if I don't want me to talk to a girl? It's easy to do, and the next time I see them, I'll just go a little farther away. But ......."
Speaking of this, Ming Ke crossed his hands around his chest and looked at her with slanted eyes.
Amy also felt strange when she saw him looking at herself like this, and looked left and right through the oil lamp to see that she didn't find anything unusual, and asked:
"What's the matter, you see me like that."
"Humph!" Ming Ke snorted coldly and looked aggrieved, "You said you don't want to see me talk to other girls, so what about yourself?" ”
"What's wrong with me?"
Amy asked back.
"What else do you say, you and that Zhou Yize chat and talk from time to time, and I feel uncomfortable looking at it."
"Big brother, I'm having something serious, okay? Besides, we're from the same city, and we're ...... That's why he took care of me, okay? Recently, he has been with Yan Xiaoxi, and he doesn't greet me much. ”
"Hmph, I'm not feeling well anyway."
"Okay, okay, next time I'll try not to talk to him on occasions where you're there, okay?"
"No, you're not allowed to talk to her if I'm not there."
Mingke turned his head childishly and said.
"Okay, okay, you won't talk to him when you're not there, okay?"
"That's pretty much it."
After speaking, Ming Ke turned his head and opened his book and reviewed it seriously.
Amy wiped the cold sweat from her head, and really felt that she had dug a pit and buried herself. This Ming Ke doesn't play cards according to the routine at all, and other people's boyfriends hear that their girlfriends are angry, so they can only care about anything else, just coaxing their girlfriends.
But what about her here, she said one sentence, Ming Ke has ten sentences waiting for him, but the question is that there is still a difference between the two of them, okay? That Liu Jianfang didn't have a good heart at first glance, and it was also thanks to the fact that Brother Mingke was a straight man, so he laughed at people and cried when he went up. Otherwise, the girl might not know what she wants to do!
Alas, falling in love is such a mental job!
After a few days of peace, the next task of the adults in the village was to deliver the food to the city and hand it over.
The village party secretary and the village cadres and party members stacked the grain to be handed over and put it in the warehouse, leaving one person to guard the grain, for fear that some people with bad intentions would come and steal it.
Sun Wei watched around the warehouse for several days, took a torch to the warehouse during the villagers' shifts, and then opened the door and threw the torch in, looking at the raging flames, his eyes were full of joy that the conspiracy had succeeded.
When he went to the countryside to choose a village, he felt that this village was large, there were relatively many wealthy people, and the quality of life should be better than that of other villages.
In fact, there is meat, Zhou Yize saw that everyone's mood was not high, and he deliberately endured the pain and exchanged two catties of meat for labor, and let the educated youth drink the paste with shredded meat at night, but because there was little meat, there were only a handful of people in their mouths.
After making sure that the grain in the warehouse was lit, he ran away.
By the time the villagers came over for their shifts, the real warehouse was already on fire, so he hurriedly ran back to call someone, and the fire was extinguished after more than an hour. At this time, the grain in the warehouse was almost burned.
The village party secretary squatted on the ground of the warehouse and smoked fireworks, and some of the village cadres next to him hammered hard to burn the pillars of the warehouse.
"What should we do, in two days it will be time to pay the grain, and now that there is so much less food, why should we pay the difference with the above?"
"Well, I don't have any idea now!"
The village party secretary let go of the cigarette holder and said with some sorrow.
"Then why do you think it's going to burn up? Could it be that our village really provoked God, so his old man sent this disaster to punish us? ”
At this time, he looked up at the sky, folded his hands, and silently prayed to the heavens that when he opened his eyes tomorrow, he would see the same warehouse as usual and a warehouse full of grain.
"What do you think! How can there be so many ghosts and gods, if you let the people in the other villages hear this, you can't say that the style of our village is not right? ”
The man next to him was the most reluctant to listen to him say this, and immediately slapped Qi on the head.
"If you want me to see, eighty percent of the people over there are educated youths who see us as unpleasant, and the people in our village have gained a lot this year, and every household is very happy, no one will do this kind of thing, only the educated youth point first had conflicts with the villagers, and then ate the old grain for half a year, and even when the meat was divided, there was no more."
A man slightly older than the village party secretary voiced his guess.
"Alas, no matter what you say, Zhou Yize and Amy, the two children, are the most promising in our village, so let them start investigating this matter. As for the grain...... Alas! ”
The village party secretary sighed heavily, then glanced at the people around him, and beckoned to them:
"As for food, I have an idea, but I don't know if it's good or not."
"Oops. You say, what's so good about it? ”
"I thought that we could take grain bags and borrow grain from the villagers door to door, and the borrowed grain could be exchanged for work and used for pork next year."
After the village party secretary finished mysteriously, he looked up at them.
Everyone thought for a moment, and finally they all nodded.
In the evening, the village party secretary came to the classroom at the end of the study class.
"Dad, what are you doing here? Are you here to pick me up? ”
When Yan Xiaoxi saw his father, he was very happy and ran over to hold his arm and said coquettishly.
"Xiaoxi, you go back first, Dad has something to do with Zhou Yize and Amy."
The village party secretary touched the old woman's head and explained his intentions to come today.
Although he didn't know what he was looking for Amy and Zhou Yize to do, Yan Xiaoxi still nodded obediently, and just glanced at Amy deeply when he left.
Amy and Minke packed up their things, and after hearing the words of the village party secretary, Amy pushed Minke's arm and motioned for him to leave with Niuniu first.
Mingke nodded, told her to pay attention to her safety, and left with a kerosene lamp.
There were only three of them left in the classroom, and Zhou Yize first walked to the village party secretary with a kerosene lamp and asked:
"Uncle, what are you looking for me and Amy?"
"Alas!" The village party secretary sighed, with a sad face, "Our village has been villained today, and someone ran to the warehouse to hand over the grain and put a fire." ”
"What?" Amy, who came over, heard the news and exclaimed in unison with Zhou Yize.
"So what about now? Has the food been saved? ”
Zhou Yize came back to his senses and thought of the deadline for delivering grain, and asked.
The village party secretary shook his head and let go of the cigarette holder:
"I didn't see it, I couldn't get into it, and I guessed that most of the food was burned, and only a third of it could be used. Alas! I'm going to worry about these things, I found you today just to ask you to help investigate the person who set the fire. ”
Zhou Yize and Amy glanced at each other and did not speak, and the village party secretary immediately spoke:
"I know that this matter is a bit difficult for you, and I also know that the village is too big to find the person who set the fire, but we really can't spare manpower, and the other village cadres in the village want to borrow food from the village with me. Most of the remaining villagers are unreliable, so they can only look up to you. ”
"Uncle, I know, I'll help investigate, but, do you have anything suspicious, or do you think it's possible?"
After Amy agreed, she asked again as she remembered something.
The village party secretary only smoked a cigarette and stopped talking, and after a while, he glanced at Zhou Yize.
Zhou Yize and Amy glanced at each other, both worried, and then Amy cautiously probed:
"Uncle Yan, you won't guess that the person who set the fire is an educated youth, right?"
The village party secretary took another puff of cigarette before he spoke a little uncomfortably:
"It's not that there are people who know the youth to set fires, it's just my guess."
Zhou Yize's face was heavy, if the person who set the fire was really in the Zhiqing point, he ...... I really don't know what to do with it.
"Uncle, I know what you mean, Team Leader Zhou and I will definitely investigate it well."
Zhou Yize also nodded, and the village party secretary left with confidence.
As soon as she walked out of the classroom door, Amy saw Minke leaning against the classroom wall, holding a kerosene lamp in one hand and the other, looking down and not knowing what she was thinking.
After saying hello to Zhou Yize, she walked to Ming Ke's side and stretched out her hand and gently patted him on the shoulder. looked at him with a smile on his face.
"Coming out? What did the village party secretary say to you? ”
Minke straightened up, illuminated the path under her feet with a kerosene lamp, and asked as he walked.
"Well, the grain to be handed over by our village was burned by fire, and the village party secretary was very busy, so let me and Zhou Yize be responsible for investigating this matter."
Amy replied as she lifted the bag of her satchel and pulled her hair to her ear with one hand.
