The national highway was completed and the new road was opened, and the county officials decided to come down, and our village and nearby villages were boiling. Because they passed an agenda, which was to unveil the national highway, the arrangement was made to our village.

This is a great honor for the villagers who are close to our village and close to both sides of the national highway. Although everyone didn't say it explicitly, everyone knew that it was Wei Hangong's credit. As a village in the upper northern part of our village, they sent all their labor to cheer.

It is said that we live in this village with the same surname and family, and we first settled in Manfuting. It was only in the early years of the former Qing Dynasty that it gradually moved to the current promotion hall. In the end, it developed into three branches of the original surname, and now the original surname of Wanfuting is the same as that of the village.

At that time, because there were too many people, the wealthy families in the village, mainly Wei Hangong, donated a lot of food. Naturally, it was necessary to grind the grain by hand and to help with all kinds of work. Everyone was happy and excited, and the villagers saw Wei Hangong's car for the first time.

It was an American-style green truck, and it could seat dozens of people. It is said that at that time, the clan elders in the village and the famous old people in the nearby villages were invited by Wei Hangong to sit in the car, and they ran around the newly built road.

It is said that one of the old men died the next day, but because of the reason for making this green truck, he said excitedly to his descendants that his life was worth it. Many years later, some old people still remember what happened.

It is said that at that time, many people in ten miles and eight towns came to see the excitement through the information of relatives and friends, or heard about it. The sensational situation in the township, many years later, except for the chaotic and messy serial era, there is no time to compare.

Although the people in the village were happy, Wei Hangong's reputation was once again in turmoil. However, Wei Hangong didn't care too much about it, and continued to walk around the country to support the Anti-Japanese War. And some of the family's business was naturally handed over to the people in the family.

The national highway is naturally of great interest to the people in the township. In a short period of time, our small village naturally became lively. The common people simply see the current benefits, but there are also some old people who are worrying about the sky.

Of course, these are not the mainstream, and the biggest change is that the small mountain village that has been silent for hundreds of years has many more outsiders. Because no one knew that not long after this time of rejoicing, an incident happened in the village.

It was something that happened suddenly, and even many people in the village did not know about it, except for some of the people involved. However, because there were a lot of people present at the time, it slowly spread later. It made people who had forgotten about the crisis of war feel a little more pressure on their hearts again.

Although the national highway was repaired, most of the powerful laborers were recruited to fight on the front line. However, some people stayed in the village to help, because there were four large families in the village at that time, each with a lot of land to take care of, and these people became the best helpers.

The owner of our compound, speaking of which, is the father of my father-in-law, who used to be the great imperial doctor in the hands of the former Qing Dynasty, and returned home to open a pharmacy after the former Qing Dynasty retreated. But later, for some unknown reason, my grandfather did not inherit the family business, but became a businessman.

The prince has a family property in Dong'an, and he is a cousin with Wei Hangong, and he also manages some properties in Dong'an for Wei Hangong. And because there are not many family members of Wei Hangong at home, my mother-in-law will also take care of some of the things in their compound.

On this day, there was a long-term worker named Hua Shou in Wei Han's family, whose ancestral home was from Henan, Central Plains. He was ordered to carry three or four hundred catties of grain to our compound and grind it. At that time, everyone was mixing grains, adding some sweet potatoes by the way, preparing to make multigrain cakes to satisfy hunger.

Who knew that on this side of our compound, there was an old mother named Ma Wanlian (grandmother), who was helping to clean up the grain by the stone nest, and somehow was chopped up her right forearm. The old man had twenty or thirty pounds of iron on the hammer of the pit, and smashed it down a foot away.

At that time, Ma Wanlian was still very young, but it is said that his arm was also crushed by this blow. At that time, the person who stepped on the old pit pedal was also a long-term worker, not only was she stunned, but many people next to her were also frightened.

I have not seen this Ma Wanpi, but she was one of my grandmother's two maids, and according to my grandmother, she was hanged in that turbulent era. Later, I vaguely learned that the reason was said to be the rampant feudal ideology.

A person's hand was smashed by dozens of catties of iron hammers, and it is said to be broken, you can imagine the tragic situation. At that time, our compound was going crazy, although Ma Wanlian was just a long-term worker, but after all, she was the person who married my grandmother's family.

Although my family is a medical heirloom, no descendants have practiced medicine. In addition, my grandfather and they all followed his grandfather in Dong'an at that time, and there were only a few women and children in the family. The long-term and short-term workers of those helpers were even more bitter and afraid of small things, haha, everyone was stunned at that time.

Who knows, that Hua Shou actually didn't hurry to ask someone to fetch a bowl of water, and the young man who fetched water, Hu Sheng, was later my grandfather. What the details were later, many people didn't mention it, but Hua Shou sprayed Ma Wan's hands with a bowl of water, and she was actually fine.

Many people may think that myths, including my honest grandfather Hu Sheng, have never mentioned it to anyone since. At that time, there was also a young man who helped, and he was the younger brother of Niu Yetang's uncle, Kaidigong.

This Kaidi Gong is also very powerful, but he was not very old at that time, unlike his brother Pidi Gong, who usually followed my Taigong to help in Dong'an. I haven't seen this predecessor either, and it is said that in that transcendent era, because of the amount of food that was too large to eat, I couldn't eat enough, and I died of eating tree roots.

Because of this incident, Hua Shou was rumored by outsiders to quench his aquatic muscles, and was taken by Wei Hangong to walk around the country. Later, Wei Hangong returned to the township, but Hua Shou never returned. The legend he left behind is still there, and he even passed on some small Taoist techniques to defend some young people.

He said that there was a great evil spirit in the village, which was caused by the old dragon spirit under the locust tree. At that time, people did not pay attention to it, but in the second half of that year, several fake devils accompanied the two devils into the village and hanged several revolutionaries on the old locust tree, and some people rumored that there were unjust ghosts in the village.

I didn't disbelieve in any of this, because I was afraid of ghosts since I was a child, so I think it would be difficult for me to encounter fierce ghosts. But on this day, Xiaohua's father mourned, and this kind of thing happened to the old couplet, so an old man said that something was going to happen in the village.

Everyone seemed to be overshadowed by this incident, and finally at everyone's request, they went to ask Mrs. Yi. The purpose is naturally to let her talk to Niu Ye, help call Uncle Luo, and ask what is going on.

It was the first time I heard a person make such a confident prediction, because after Niu Ye called, Uncle Luo from the provincial capital came back and said that the northwest of the village was cloudy.

The reason is because I was looking for the thin-legged substitute for the water ghost, I don't know why I didn't reincarnate, and I actually found Nineteen Niang to cause trouble. Uncle Luo didn't accept the water ghost in the first place, because he knew that he was going to be reincarnated.

What he didn't expect was that not only did it not reincarnate, but when it was wandering around, it actually met another old ghost. Uncle Luo didn't say how this old ghost came from, but it obviously belonged to somewhere in the village, and it was suppressed and didn't move, and now it came out.

In less than a week, something big will happen in the northwest!

Uncle Luo's prediction spread quickly, putting everyone in the village in danger. Although some young people are dismissive, there are still many old people who give advice. He was talking about the northwest side of the compound, but the adults here were also panicking.

Children like me feel the difference in the atmosphere, even my father specially instructed my mother to pick me up and go to school every day. Although I felt nervous, I was more happy because my mother actually picked me up and went to and from school.

The reason why I later went to learn about Uncle Luo was because less than a week after Niu Ye made the call, a major event happened in the village. That is, Renfeng's cousin drank pesticides, and this shocking news shocked everyone.

As a newly promoted party member in the village, Renfeng has indeed been proud of the spring breeze in the past two years. Coupled with his natural versatility, he naturally shines wherever he goes. The leaders of the older generation in the village want to retire, that is, Niu Ye is said to be retiring, and everyone is optimistic about Renfeng's succession.

Whether it is the leaders sent by the township government to the village, or the new and old leaders in the village, they are all praising the people and phoenixes. It seems that it is only a matter of time before he is promoted to leader in the future. So when everyone was looking at him, he floated a little.

I gradually understood this at the time, because after all, I saw him a lot. I have seen his handsome and chic appearance, and sometimes I am very envious when I stand on the sidelines.

As soon as Renfeng's cousin drank pesticides, some people said that she had hit a ghost.
