As the sun set, Brother Ju Xiang's blind baby sat in the courtyard, looking up at his dark world in a daze. Ju Xiang's father came out of the hall with difficulty with a bamboo stick and moved, his swollen and deformed body, and said: "Blind baby, Yang Anbang specially arranged for me to guard the storage room tonight, and the stairs are full of peanuts that will be handed over tomorrow morning. Your mother may have to work overtime again tonight, and when Juxiang Li De comes back, you greet them a little. The blind baby nodded, and Ju Xiang's father walked out of the yard with a twist.

In the middle of the night, the moon seemed to faint from hunger, stumbling into a cloud of plasma. On the edge of the stairs of the storage room, more than 1,000 catties of high-grade peanuts that will be handed over to the public tomorrow have never left Ju Xiang's father's sight for a moment. He slept on the bunk next to him, and every nerve was alert to any movement on the peanut pile, and from time to time he had delusions, so he got up mechanically and looked around.

In the faint moonlight, he found a shriveled rat, secretly running and fleeing in panic with peanuts. He squatted up like an electric shock, and pounced on it with all his might, his deformed and fat body did not obey the call, and he stumbled and fell into the ditch under the edge of the steps. He struggled to the point of exhaustion, but in the end he still did not get up. scolded: "Plague rat, even if you starve to death, you can't steal the public grain." ”

So, he had to sit in the ditch with stagnant water, his eyes still fixed on the peanut pile on the edge of the steps. In a daze, he heard footsteps, looked up and saw a figure coming from the east, and he struggled to get up, but his legs and feet seemed to grow on someone else. I had to let out a long sigh and touch a stone and drag it into my hand.

"Juxiang Dad, Juxiang Dad." "Ju Xiang's mother, what are you doing here?" "Seeing that you are swollen like a bubble cake, the more I think about it after I wake up, the more uneasy I become, so I will come and take a look." "Help me." "What's wrong with you?" "If you catch a mouse that eats peanuts, you won't be able to get up if you fall." "His dad ......"

Ju Xiang's mother dragged him back to the ground and laid him: "Dad, you are so hungry that you don't know how many peanuts to eat when you are guarding a lot of peanuts." With that, he reached out and grabbed a handful from the pile, and he grabbed her hand and forcibly broke it open and threw the peanut back. Shouted: "Crazy? Tomorrow morning, I folded the scales and handed over the public grain, so where did I put my face? Let's go, let people meet and can't tell. "What kind of ecstasy soup do you have in your brain?" Still not awake yet? You deserve to starve to death! ”

The next morning, the team went to the storage room to pick peanuts to go to the town to hand over the public grain, and Ju Xiang's father sat on the ground, his body was hard and cold against the wall, and his eyes were still staring at the peanut pile......
