Chapter 191: Hiding Grain to Prevent Scoundrels

Grandpa Jia walked to the gate of the courtyard in his coat, "Ah Hong Ah Liang, what are you two doing here early in the morning?" ”

"Uncle Jia, are you a guest at home? We really didn't have anything to eat at home, so we wanted to come over and ask for some food. "The taller villager said, his eyes moving back and forth between the frozen meat and us.

"Ah Hong, I said last time you came, I didn't have much from the land where my old bones were planted, and I didn't have enough to eat, why did you come back?" Grandpa Jia's voice revealed a hint of helplessness.

"Uncle Jia, you can farm, no matter how much you are a hundred times stronger than stupid people like us who don't produce food, how much even~ If there is no food, the meat is fine, Uncle Jia, what kind of meat is that? What else can you hunt? Ah Hong couldn't hide his greed, and he opened his mouth to beg for meat.

"What a big mouth." Luo Han couldn't hold back, what he was worried about last night came so quickly, "These meats are all my Arhat's, it's useless for you to bargain with Old Man Jia!" ”

Grandpa Jia hurriedly nodded in agreement, "Is it possible for me, with my old arms and legs, to go into the mountains to hunt?" This is someone else's, and I carried it on the way when I froze. ”

The old man was quite clever, but this set of rhetoric obviously couldn't fool the two hungry villagers.

"Uncle Jia, you actually tease us, okay, the meat is too rare, you can't help it if you are reluctant to give it, then get a few potatoes and rice, you are hungry." Another man named Ah Liang began to pretend to be pitiful.

Grandpa Jia was so angry that his beard trembled, and he turned around and explained to us, "Children, it's not that I'm ruthless, I don't give them a little, these two boys, they don't work hard, they refuse to plant in the barren land, they always go to other people's homes to scrape, and a lot of the grain I grow has been scraped away by them!" ”

The old man is very concerned about what we think of him, for fear that we will have some misunderstanding about him, but in fact, we are not blind, and we know others very well by looking at the scoundrels of those two people.

"Uncle Jia, look at you, they are all from the same village, why do you say that about the two of us?" Ah Liang's mouth was very oily, "We don't know how to farm, and we don't dare to go to the city to work anymore, so we can only nest in this broken mountain to survive, you watched us grow up, and you don't say that you feel distressed." ”

"You ...... The stinky boy whose mud can't hold up the wall! I have worked in the city to see that you are delicate, and the fields will not be served, haven't I taught you many times? "Grandpa Jia is really a little moved.

"Don't be angry with them, old man, your own body is important." Luo Han stepped over and gently pulled Grandpa Jia behind him.

"You two listen well," Luohan's big physique crossed the door, blocking Grandpa Jia with a porcelain solid, "These frozen meats are taken away and eaten by us on the road, you don't have to worry about it!" Also, give me less of the idea of eating at the old man's house, strong men with arms and legs, they want to get food by themselves! Do you know who we are? ”

The two people outside the door looked at Luohan with some shrunk and shook their heads, but they had no intention of leaving, and the strength of the mountain people should not be underestimated.

"We were sent by a great general to observe the people's feelings!" Luo Han wanted to use General Pi's might to deter them, "Does the Chengdu garrison base know?" ”

The two shook their heads with stupid faces, although they looked stupid, they shouldn't be stunned in their hearts, pretending to be pigs and eating tigers.

"Anyway, we were sent by the national army, so you can always understand this, right?" Luo Han was a little impatient, "You two don't pretend to be garlic!" People who have been in the city still don't understand this? Old Man Jia is now in a state of national protection, you have to think of any crooked hearts, but you can't eat carefully and walk around. ”

This bunch of confusing words is really a serious lack of logic, and the state has the energy to protect individuals, so why can't it deal with the overall situation? It can be used to scare small shrimp or work.

"Uncle Jia, then, then we'll go back first." Ah Hong Ah Liang was still aware of current affairs, stretched his neck and shouted into the courtyard and turned to leave.

Seeing the two leave, Luo Han grinned, "What's the matter?" I'm pretending to be a state commissioner, and I'm pretty drippy? ”

"Like your size! The fact that these two people withdrew so quickly and didn't fight for a minute is not a good thing in my opinion. I went over and pulled away the Arhat's general physique and glanced at the backs of the two of them a few times, "This kind of laizi is not so easy to answer correctly no matter where you are, how can you die in a few words." Maybe they will hold back the bad, and when we are all gone, they will come to the door to take advantage of it. ”

Grandpa Jia nodded, "Every time the two of them come back, it's impossible to leave without scraping something, and I feel surprised when they say they will leave this time." ”

"That's fine!" I looked back at Grandpa Jia, "Lazy people often carry slippery heads, or how can they scrape oil and water from honest people who eat with their hands?" These frozen meats are going to give you trouble! Fortunately, they didn't find the food hoarded in the house. ”

Grandpa Jia looked at the frozen meat hanging under the eaves, and was a little worried, "Otherwise, children, you can take this meat away, it is better than adding the mouths of those two stinky boys." Alas, I was thinking of supplementing the two children's ......"

"Grandpa Jia, are there any hidden caves or cellars near your house?" What I was thinking about was this, helping Grandpa Jia hide the grain and frozen meat, and the two Laizi came, only took some potatoes to deal with the matter, and said that the meat was taken away by us.

Grandpa Jia thought for a while and pointed to the backyard, "Go out from the backyard to the mountain, there is a small cave, it is very cold, when it is too hot in summer, I sometimes go in to enjoy the coolness, and it is comfortable." ”

"Does anyone else know about the cave?"

"My little grandson knows that before he goes to the city, he always goes up the mountain with me to pick wild fruits and mushrooms, and when we are tired, we go in to rest, and sometimes we pick more fruits, so we store them in the cave and then go out to pick them, so as to save the weight on our backs, and take the last piece home."

"That is, outsiders don't know?" I'm happy in my heart, there's a play.

"I don't know, there are many such small caves on the mountain, and it's not a rare thing, there must be one on the mountain behind other people's homes, so there's something to shout about."

"It's done! Let's quickly move all the food from Grandpa Jia's family to the cave, just leave less enough to eat for a few days, Grandpa Jia, you have to be careful every time you go to the cave to get food, don't be discovered, and take less at a time. By the way, the food from the two children's homes will also be transported to the cave, and I think that if the two laizi knew that the children had so much food in their hands, they would definitely make up their minds. ”

After speaking, we took action, Grandpa Jia's family had a lot of marijuana bags, packed with grain, hung on the backs of three horses, and under the leadership of Grandpa Jia, walked towards the back mountain.

The small cave is at the foot of the mountain, not far from the old man's home, and it takes only ten minutes to walk, but the entrance of the cave is quite hidden, and the dense vegetation covers the entrance of the cave tightly.

The small cave is indeed not big, only more than 30 square meters of space, go into it deeply, the more you go inside, the cooler it is, and it is not too suitable to store food! We stacked the grain neatly, and the frozen meat was piled on top of the grain bag.

"What if the meat is left like this, and the beasts come in and eat it?" Zhu Hong and the other men muttered for a while, took out a circle of ropes and hooks from Tang Xiao's backpack, and stretched a straight lanyard on the sharp edge of the stone crack on the top of the cave, and then tied the bag of frozen meat to the rope and hung it in the air, so that even if a little beast came in, it would not be able to reach the frozen meat.

"You're smart about renting land." Grandpa Jia looked at our masterpiece and smiled.

When we went to the two children's house to transport grain, we told them again that if someone in the village came to the door to gossip, they must not say anything about the grain storage.

After all the grain and frozen meat were hidden in the cave, Luohan brought a few large stones to cover the entrance of the cave, leaving only a small opening that one person could shrink into, and then plugged the hole with an empty sack ball, so that even the little beast could not get in.

After all this, we finally settled down and stayed at Grandpa Jia's house for another night, and then said goodbye to the old man and prepared to go on the road.

Grandpa Jia and the two children stood next to the car and couldn't stop waving, reluctantly, the three of us also got on the horse, and were about to set off, but saw more than a dozen people suddenly coming behind them, looking at the clothes, they were all villagers living nearby, there were adults and children, and the leaders were Ah Hong and A Liang, who came to the door to ask for food yesterday.

Sure enough, you don't give up! I looked at the faces of those two men and was depressed. What about group fights?

These villagers and the children were generally black, thin and haggard, and it seemed that they were having a hard time after the end of the world, and it was not easy to live on the little food produced in their own fields.

Adults are just that, looking at those few children who are so thin that they only have big eyes left, dressed in tatters like little beggars, my heart is sour, but I know that I can't save the poor, we helped Grandpa Jia and the two orphans, just by chance, and they are indeed weak, old and young, and those children are standing behind them, but they are middle-aged men in the prime of life, the reason why they pull the children to the door to beg for food, is just to use the children as a tool to provoke pity, What is the difference between this behavior and those professional beggars who have hands and feet but have a child in their arms and beggars all over the street before the end of the world?

Thinking of this, I stared coldly at those incompetent parents, who felt my fierce gaze and avoided it in fear, isn't it weak-hearted?

It's a few children, who may not have figured out what happened, and were pulled over as a signboard by the adults in the family, and their faces were full of strangeness, thinking that they were making some interesting excitement.

"What are you doing here?" Grandpa Jia asked annoyedly, "As for it?" When has my old man been so concerned? Can't stand it wow. ”

We also left, and it was absolutely impossible for Grandpa Jia to settle this matter himself.

Seeing that we hadn't left yet, Ah Hong and Ah Liang didn't dare to get too close, and stood there shouting at Grandpa Jia, "Uncle Jia, we are our own family, if you are rich, you don't care about these real relatives, you can't talk about it!" Your family's big meat is piled up in a house, and you can't eat it yourself, so why don't you share it with everyone? We don't want much, one piece per person is enough, we are not greedy! ”

They were embarrassed to mention the word "greed"! I was completely defeated by these two!
