"If you want me to say, we are all villagers. Distant relatives are not as good as close neighbors, who doesn't ask the neighbors in front of them for help when they have something? Your family is so rich, and you still need these cucumbers and eggplants? What are you afraid of picking some!" Old Wutou's daughter-in-law looked at Kou Xi with her waist crossed.

"Our family has money, and if our family has money, we have to steal it for you. What kind of truth is this?" Kou Xi trembled with anger, only to feel that these people were extremely shameless.

"What do you mean by stealing, you saw us stealing? Why don't you have any things in your house, maybe what's going on?" Hmph, it's hard to say who you offended. Otherwise, so many people are growing vegetables, and your things are lost, why don't you think about it?" The old woman Wu beat her back: "Why should I ruin the reputation of my old man? ”

Even if the matter is revealed, the corner of Kou Xi's mouth showed a sarcastic smile. Xiao Wang, a police officer at the police station, said: "If you lose the chili eggplant, you will lose it, the key is my brother's wallet left at home, and the payment for hundreds of yuan." This is a big case, colleague Xiao Wang, let's file a case. ”

Kou Xi walked around the house, pointed to the neighbors who were called by the police, and said: "I haven't had time to go back to my house to have a look, and I will ask the police comrades to accompany us home in a while." I'm afraid that my family will be robbed!"

Kou Xi said loudly with his hands behind his back: "Don't they all say that our family is rich, and our family has a lot of good things." Losing a gold necklace or something is a big case, this body is on the back of the case, and it is recorded in the file that he will follow his children and grandchildren all his life. Right, Comrade Xiao Wang. ”

Comrade Xiao Wang nodded almost inaudibly, which frightened the people in the room. The old lady Li in the front yard pointed to the old Zhang family in the backyard, and the old Zhang family scolded the old Lu family. Everyone shirked their responsibilities to each other, and they all made it clear when and who stole what vegetables.

After a while, the head of the police station personally came out to mediate and disperse the crowd watching the excitement. He also criticized and educated several households: "I don't force you to take back other people's things, you can see how much you take." It's not easy for people to do business, and it's not easy for a man to be a soldier outside to protect our family and defend the country, and it's not easy for her to be a woman. ”

Old Mrs. Li rolled her eyes, twisted for a long time and muttered: "My family took a few green-skinned persimmons, and I sent them back to her just now." What else do you want? I don't have anything!"

"Stop, your family has the most money. I go to pick vegetables every night, you big guys are blind!" Lao Zhang's house is next door to the old house, and usually anyone in her vegetable field can see it at a glance.

The old Lu family is also accusing Lao Li: "Yes, you will take the most." Don't think about it, let's pay for it!"

Mrs. Li sat on the ground angrily and cried, scolding the neighbors for spreading rumors. was reprimanded by the director of the police station again, and Mrs. Li was afraid that she would be detained and leave some bad files for the children at home. I came home huffing and picked a basket full of vegetables in the yard of my house. deliberately led his daughter-in-law to the police station with a branch, let the director take a look, and sent it to Kou Xi's family.

"It's obvious that our family lost something, and now I'm offending everyone. Kou Xi was extremely aggrieved in his heart, and he really couldn't figure out why.

"I don't know why?" said Kodwang with a smile on his face, still smelling of alcohol. He hugged his little granddaughter and kissed him very lovingly: "My family Xiaole has grown up again." ”

"Girl, do you know how many people have been hacked by our family before?" Kou Dewang said disapprerovingly: "As soon as your mother left, someone came to our house to borrow money. After so many years, none of the relatives who borrowed money from us before have repaid the money. When we bought a store, I was thinking about closing the accounts and getting all the money back. ”

Kou Dewang patted his face: "Your father and I haven't gone down from the supply and marketing cooperative, so these people won't buy my account." Saying that I have no conscience, that they can't eat, I still have the heart to ask them for money. ”

Kou Xi was stunned, covering his blocked chest: "The one who owes money really thinks it's the uncle?"

"Do you remember you Zhao Dada?" Kou Dewang said a name, and Kou Xi nodded: "Remember, Zhao Dada was originally from Hongqi Town." His son went to the army with Huo An, and he introduced Huo An to you back then. It's a pity that he was gone when we got married!"

"Do you know why he died?" said Kodwang, with a look of regret.

"Why?"

"He's suffocated!" Koudwan let out a long sigh.

"Suffocated to death?" Kou Xi looked surprised.

"At the beginning, his family contracted a fish pond in the town, and the area was not large. Thinking that raising fish at home is always more fruitful than fishing in Yedianzi. "Hongqi Town is located in a swampy area with abundant aquatic products. In the seventies, there were flocks of wild cranes and wild ducks in this area. After the beginning of spring, the Kaijiang fish fished out by the common people are ten catties and eight catties, which are considered small.

"Haven't you heard that there are still fish ponds that are contracted?" Kou Xi stared at a pair of big eyes: "Sister Yazhi wanted to contract fish ponds at the beginning, but her mother-in-law didn't let her, saying that she could earn some pocket money by fishing, but she didn't make money by contracting fish ponds." ”

She was right. Because Zhao Wu ....." Kou Dewang choked up: "After serving carefully for more than half a year, he went to the fish pond one morning to take a look." The fingerlings that have been palm-sized have all been drugged to death, and the whole fish pond is stinky, even if you want to raise it again. After that, there were fewer fish in the fish ponds in Hongqi Town. No one dares to contract fish farming. ”

Kou Xi couldn't figure it out: "Who drugged him? Why is he so ruthless? Does Zhao Dada have a grudge against anyone? If he has a grudge, go to him." ”

"Who are you looking for?" Kou Dewang's eyes widened: "Who knows which one was killed by a thousand knives, and you caught it?"

Zhao Wu was so angry that he vomited a mouthful of blood and fell to the edge of the fish pond. The family found out and carried him home in time, but unfortunately he was depressed and lay on the kang for more than a month. No matter how much the family persuaded him, he still couldn't think about it. He felt sorry for the time and money spent in the fish pond, and he was even more angry with those who were secretly doing it.

One night, taking advantage of people's inattention, he took a hemp rope and hung himself on the big locust tree in the backyard. Kou Dewang sighed: "You say, isn't this suffocated to death?"

"I don't understand, his family contracted the fish pond, why would someone frame and poison him?" Looking at his daughter's confused look, Kou Dewang couldn't help but say: "Everyone is the same family, the same poor, the same unproductive, the same can't eat." Suddenly, your family can eat meat, can you not attract people's greed?"

"Then they can also work their own, and if they don't work hard, they will still be jealous of others? If they are not jealous, they will be framed? Why, if everyone in the world is unlucky, will they feel comfortable?" Kou Xi suddenly understood, and slapped the table and yelled.
