Chapter 121: Rumors

For the next three or four days, it rained every day, and the rain was very heavy, and there were even signs of flooding.

On this day, the sun that had not been seen for a long time finally crawled out of the clouds, and the haze that had been in place for several days dissipated. The villagers of Mao'er Village also came out of their homes to look at their most important land in the fields.

Sure enough, after the rain in the past few days, all the ridges of the fields have been washed away by the rain, and some fields even have large areas of stagnant water.

All the villagers stood on the ridge and watched all this in front of them with worry.

"Look, there's somewhere there's somebody."

Suddenly, a man in the crowd stretched out his index finger and pointed forward.

Everyone looked in the direction of his finger, and it turned out that Amy was holding a rake, and one rake after another was leading the stagnant water out.

Although it is far away, everyone still feels that the water in the fields is slowly decreasing.

"Well, how did we not think of it? As long as the stagnant water in the fields is diverted, there is no fear of flooding. ”

"That's right, the ink in this belly is different from the ones we eat in the soil."

"Why don't you hurry down and help, you must know that if we get this stagnant water out one day earlier, we can sow the seeds in it one day earlier, and we don't have to worry about not being able to deliver food at the end of the year."

As he spoke, several young men jumped into the field with cloth shoes on their feet. Most of the women on the ridge also looked at Amy with gratitude.

"Hey, maybe she found this rain, don't forget, a few days ago, she hid the fact that she was bitten by a poisonous snake, and wanted to poison Fuzi's family."

Suddenly, a discordant voice from the crowd jumped out, and the women who were standing beside her were also a little frightened when they heard this, and most of them looked at each other, not knowing what to do.

"Rich family, don't talk nonsense, be careful to let others know, say that our village talks about superstition."

There was a bold voice to stop it.

"Whoever is talking nonsense, think about it, it hasn't rained in our village on the day she was bitten. But since she was bitten, the rain has not stopped in our village, and maybe the snake is here to remind us. Let's watch out for her. ”

"What nonsense, don't you want to live anymore, do you? It's time to rain these days, so what's the warning or not. ”

The village party secretary walked over slowly with his hands behind his back and on his back. The middle of the crowd automatically made way for him.

"Fugui's family, if you let me know that you are chewing your tongue behind your back, I will let Fugui go back and clean you up, if a man can't even manage his own family's affairs, how can I rest assured that he will manage this village."

"I didn't talk nonsense! Besides, I don't believe that you will give us wealth and wealth, do you take a fancy to her by protecting her so much? ”

As soon as he was frightened, the woman who was called the rich family immediately lowered her voice and muttered in a low voice.

Seeing that she was not shouting loudly, the village party secretary did not hold on to this matter, but organized the men in the village to dig ditches in the fields to divert the stagnant water.

At noon, after eating, the village party secretary convened a meeting with all the educated youths, and praised Amy at the meeting.

The second is to ask the educated youths to help dig the canals, because most of the fields they are responsible for are at the foot of the mountain. So there is basically no need to dig a canal.

But in the village, it is different, and some people are responsible for the water in the fields that can directly flood people's feet and necks. The workload is really large, and the few young adults in the village are simply not enough.

Hearing this, Zhou Yize pondered for a moment and said:

"We can help then, but the physical strength of our few people is limited. I can only promise you how much we can help, not necessarily everything we can help you. ”

"I know that you can help us, we are already very happy, and I don't expect you to help us finish digging."

The village party secretary wore a Zhongshan suit, held a cigarette pot in one hand and took a puff in his mouth and said.

And the educated youths in the room also echoed it, and no one objected.

In the evening, Amy had pheasant meat in their meal today. Because Grandma Wang's house is located in a remote area, the taste of boiled meat can't reach other people's noses. So Minke often hunted hares and pheasants from the mountains.

"Mingke, you are so amazing, I thought you released my pigeon today! I didn't expect you to actually hit the chicken. ”

Amy grabbed a piece of chicken from the large enamel bowl and chewed it twice, almost swallowing her tongue. A face of happiness.

When Ming Ke heard her words, he was a little puzzled, but when he saw her gobbling up, he was relieved, and scooped a bowl of chicken soup from the basin next to him before asking:

"Xiaomi, what did you mean when you said I released your pigeons?"

"Ahh The meaning of that sentence is that you don't want to work and run away. ”

Amy was first surprised that she had come up with the words of the twenty-first century, and then said nonchalantly.

When Ming Ke heard this, he paused, and then turned his face very seriously, and said to her carefully:

"I tell you, in this life I may lie to everyone, I may leave everyone, but I will never deceive you, I will not leave you."

Amy's heart raced when she saw his serious appearance, and she quickly turned her head, trying to hide her embarrassment by eating, but she didn't want to pick up the leftover bones in the bowl, and almost didn't bite her teeth out in one bite.

Really, why do you want to look at her with that kind of look, as a maternal solo, she hasn't been in love in her twenties in her last life, how can she resist his affectionate eyes that seem to be on his girlfriend!

"Sister Xiaomi, you lied to me." Niuniu, who was sitting on the side and watching the interaction between the two, suddenly popped out of this sentence.

"Where did I lie to you? Sister Xiaomi has never lied. ”

Amy said as she picked up a piece of chicken and put it in Niu Niu's bowl.

"I saw from the book that you and Brother Xiao Ming are in love, but you said that you and Brother Xiao Ming are not in love. But the book doesn't deceive people, so at first glance, you are deceiving me. ”

Niuniu's milky voice and self-righteous voice made Amy even more unsure of what to do, so she could only look up at the sky and say with a smile:

"Niuniu, you see the moon in the sky is so big."

"There is no moon in the sky today! The uncle in the village also said that according to today's weather, it will rain tomorrow! ”

Hearing her words, Amy looked up seriously and saw that there was really no moon in the sky. Now, she became more and more embarrassed. I had to eat with my head down.

Grandma Wang saw that Amy was about to fill her head into the bowl, and hurriedly came out to relieve the siege:

"Your sister Xiao is not mistaken, just now grandma also saw the moon come out, but now it is covered by clouds! Hurry up and eat well, and you'll see it tomorrow night! ”

"But ......"

Niuniu wanted to say something, but was gagged by Grandma Wang with a nest head.

Minke turned his head and looked straight at Amy, who put her mouth on the bowl and pulled rice into her mouth without raising her head. His ears were red like the sun about to set, and his shy appearance was very good-looking.

The next day, Amy got dressed and looked in front of the only half mirror in the room, and somehow, looking at it, she thought about the problem of Niu Niu last night. The little face suddenly turned red again.

She walked on the ridge and said hello to everyone who came to her, but everyone who saw her would walk over quickly with evasive eyes, giving Amy the illusion that she was some kind of pathogen and that others would be infected when they saw her.

It wasn't until she got to the field that Amy walked up to Xiao Cui, who got along well with her, and asked in a low voice:

"Xiaocui, what's wrong with them today? Why did you hide away from me as soon as you saw me? ”

Xiao Cui looked around for a while before speaking in a low voice:

"Xiaomi, it's not that we've changed, it's that you have something! I heard Xiaofang from the house next door to us say that someone saw you and the village party secretary break your shoes, and now everyone treats you as a typical child! ”

"Do you know who said that in the first place?"

Hearing this, Amy immediately became angry, and anyone who heard such slanderous words would not be indifferent.

"I heard that it seems to have come from a rich aunt."

Xiao Cui thought for a while and said.

When Amy heard this, she threw down her hoe and ran away without saying a word.

When she arrived at the field where Aunt Fugui was, she didn't know what to say to others and was laughing.

Amy walked up, skimmed off the rake in the hand of the rich aunt, and asked with a blue face:

"I heard that Aunt Fugui saw me and the village chief break their shoes?"

The smile on Aunt Fugui'er's face did not change, and she said: "Oh, how embarrassed to say this thing in front of the protagonist, now this young man is really not ashamed." actually put this matter on the bright side. ”

"Smack"

Amy couldn't help but give her a slap in the face, and her nose was panting:

"Very well, your current behavior has caused harm......"

"Why are you beating me! No matter how I say it, it's your elders, why are you so rude, and besides, who are the two of us hurting who now? Which eye of yours saw me say this, and if you dare to do this, you will dare to bear the consequences! Don't be angry with me as an irrelevant person. ”

"Okay, then I hope you can also have the courage to bear the consequences of your tongue chewing."

Amy clenched her hands into fists, closed her eyes and turned away.

Aunt Fugui's face was still hot and painful, and some people had already looked towards them, Aunt Fugui felt that she couldn't hold the face on her face, and shouted loudly:

"Little, there is a kind of you to give me back, since you dare to do that, you have the ability to admit it, sooner or later, I will return this slap to you."

Seeing that Amy didn't even look back, Aunt Fugui thought that she had guessed by herself, and she became more and more proud, thinking that she would publicize this matter even more, and strive to let everyone above know that maybe the position of the village party secretary would be theirs.
