Chapter 9 The Drought Is Coming

Soon after the meal, someone from the house came.

Headed by the village head, he brought several families in the village who were good friends with the Liu family to visit Old Man Liu.

At night last year, the news that Old Man Liu fell down the mountain and was seriously injured spread in the village in an instant.

Because of the diagnosis of the barefoot doctor, various rumors are boiling, and the most said is that Old Man Liu will not live that night.

Especially some of the three aunts and six women in the village who had broken mouths, described the scene vividly, what was a hole the size of a sea bowl on their heads, covered with blood, and people were out of breath at that time...... The end is scary.

If it weren't for the fact that the Liu family went to return the Li family's ox cart early this morning, and some people saw the Liu family brothers go to work on the ground, they didn't know that they had returned.

And it doesn't seem to be as serious as it is rumored? Otherwise, Liu Dalin and Liu Erlin can still be in the mood to work in the field?

You must know that Mr. Liu's family is well-known in the village, and the famous father and son are filial piety and family harmony.

So after getting the news, the group found a free time at noon.

One is to visit, and the other is to see the situation.

However, when they saw that Old Man Liu was full of energy and full of energy, he was shocked.

"Brother Liu, what are you...... Okay? "The village head, Liu Jinfu, looks like he is in his forties, with a short beard, and he seems to be calm and shrewd, but at this time, he is too shocked to speak.

Before I came, I thought that maybe Old Man Liu's injury was not fatal, but he fell so hard and had a scoop on his head, why should he lie in bed and die?

Could it be that the news is wrong, and Old Man Liu was not seriously injured at all?

"Hahaha, it's great, it's great, if it weren't for the old woman and my family staring, I would have been able to work in the field." The old man smiled, mentioning his baby granddaughter, his eyebrows were full of pride and pride, "This time it is indeed a ghost gate, if it weren't for my little girl, people would probably ......be gone."

On the side, the old woman Liu hurriedly spat him, "What nonsense, what nonsense, bah, bah!" Unlucky! ”

Although the old man is in good spirits now, but last night's thrilling heart palpitations are still there, just thinking about the time when Dr. Hu asked them to go home to prepare for the future, his heart is still pounding, oozing panic!

Liu Jinfu looked at each other with a few villagers, "Is it really that hanging?" Is it still related to Xiao Nannan? What the hell is going on? ”

Hey, the old man Liu came to the spirit, hugged his little girl and began to foam at the mouth, adding oil and vinegar to the scene at that time, and occasionally added a few words by Mrs. Liu, who was stunned to say that his good granddaughter was a blessing doll in the world.

Liu Yusheng covered his face silently in the old man's arms, master, you are a bit of a fool.

The village chief looked at her with evil eyes.

She was only two years old, and she couldn't say anything, so she could only blink her eyes and pretend to be ignorant.

"I didn't expect that there would be such a thing, your family is really blessed, good, good! Looking at it, he is very well-behaved and sensible, unlike the two in my family, who are four or five years old, and they only know how to catch chickens and dogs. ”

"Isn't my monkey the same, he's six years old, he can't do anything except play crazy, and he won't go to the house for three days!"

"It's still a well-behaved, sensible and caring girl."

……

After showing off his good granddaughter, Old Man Liu was in a high mood, his face was almost red, and he was about to speak again, when a hurried shout came from outside the yard.

"Village Chief! Chief! Something is wrong, something is wrong, you hurry up and take a look! The people of the village are fighting with the downhill village! ”

"It's a cow." Liu Jinfu's face froze and he got up, "Brother Liu, you have a good rest, I'll take a look." ”

Old Man Liu hurriedly said, "Go quickly, don't let them make a big trouble!" ”

Several people who came together also walked out one after another, scolding in their mouths, "It's downhill village again!" Those bitches must have intercepted the water upstream again! ”

In an instant, the lively room was empty.

The atmosphere has also become a little oppressive.

Old woman Liu couldn't sit still, "You said that this downhill village is too barbaric!" There is only one river in the neighboring villages that can irrigate the crops, and if they block the river above, how can the crops live below? Relying on their village upstream, they did this kind of immoral thing, a group of plague victims! Seeing that the crops will be harvested in another month, and the water is cut off at this time, this is the life of the croppers! Don't fight! ”

"What's the solution? This year, there was a severe drought in Nanling, and many places began to lack water, and I heard that there was already a famine in the north. Old Man Liu sighed, "Let's just say that the green river on the edge of our village, although there is still water, in fact, the water level is already very low, in my opinion, it will not last long before it will dry up, and I am afraid that there will be a big deal at that time." ”

Liu Yusheng listened silently, and his heart also pressed down a heavy stone.

Croppers rely on the sky for food, God does not appreciate face, not to say that the crops are not harvested, whether people can survive is a problem.

Now that the two villages are already in a dispute over water, it is almost predictable what will happen if the situation does not improve.

She doesn't have the compassion of the world, she only worries about her grandmother and father.

is that she has space, and in this environment, can she be alone?

"No, I have to go and see, our land is on the edge of the Qinghe, the eldest and second have just gone to work, and I'm worried that they will also get involved." Saying that, Mrs. Liu walked out.

"Come back! What's the use of you going to top an old woman? Don't go to join in the fun, in case you bump into it, our family will be in chaos," Old Man Liu hurriedly stopped, "The village chief has passed, there will always be an explanation of how things are going in the end, and besides, the eldest and second are so adults, do things in a measured way!" If you're really worried, I'll go and see! ”

The furious old woman Liu was dumbfounded.

The old man just walked through the ghost gate, let him go? She was even more uneasy.

Fortunately, it didn't take long for the two brothers who had gone to work to come back.

It's just that the face is not very good-looking.

"How? Those people in the downhill village still refuse to open the river? As soon as the person entered the door, Mrs. Liu greeted her, and she was relieved to see that there were no traces of injuries on the brothers.

Liu Erlin scooped a scoop of water from the water tank and drank it happily, before scolding, "Those turtle grandsons refuse to open the road to release water, and now the water supply for our downstream crops has stopped!" The village chief didn't do anything when he ran over, and the village chief of the downhill village didn't even show his face, making it clear that he would let those people make trouble! Anyway, it's not them who suffer! A group of kings and eight calves, I bah! I was in a hurry, and I chopped them all up with a knife! ”

"What nonsense!" Liu Dalin glared at him and comforted Mrs. Liu, "The village chief is already thinking of a way, if it doesn't work, he will go to the yamen, Qinghe is shared by several villages, and now the people of the downhill village are unreasonable, and they want to cut off everyone's way of life, and when they get to the yamen, they will be at a loss, and they will definitely be able to solve it." ”
