Summer nights are unusually cool, and after dinner, wait for the sky to darken, lie on the roof and watch the starry sky blowing the refreshing night breeze, not to mention how beautiful.

At that time, in order to save some lamp oil, ordinary people generally went to bed early. In the villages in the countryside, the lights are turned off after eight o'clock, and few people stay up late. There are some bathhouses in the county, mahjong parlors will operate all night, but basically it is dark, and the snitch will take advantage of this time to start lifting tiles, and we mentioned at the beginning of lifting tiles, that is, to go into the house where there are still people sleeping to steal things, and turning over boxes and cabinets can not make a sound, which is like lifting tiles on top of other people's heads, which is a kind of technical work, and the industry will directly use the tiles as a metaphor for this way of stealing.

The brothers of the grave team wandered around the county for an afternoon, and when they returned to the dormitory in the evening, Hu Da touched his stomach and said, "Oh, look, my stomach is hungry and thin." ”

Lao Wu said to him: "You can't die of hunger for one or two meals, and when you get the thief's money back tonight, you can eat whatever you like, and no one cares about you." ”

Hu Dawei said unhappily: "How do you speak?" If you don't go hungry, don't you let others go hungry? I haven't eaten enough at noon, and I can't sleep at night without eating and drinking? What the hell is it like to catch a thief? Who will you arrest if you are hungry? Steal your pants again, and you'll go bare-bottomed on the streets. ”

The sixth child couldn't laugh when he heard this, and said with a wink: "Second brother, I didn't find it before, how much do you eat?" Give you those jokes, put them together, and you can say cross talk? I think it's much more productive than digging a grave. ”

Xiao Qi washed his hands, brought out a big melon from the back room, cut it in half and beat the skin, and planned to steam it and eat it.

When Hu Dazhu saw it, he said happily: "Hey, you guys, have you seen it?" It has to be Xiao Qi sensible, knowing that his brother is hungry and steaming melons to eat. Hey, it's a pity that this water croaking thing is not delicious, if there is such a leg of mutton" Hu Da Arm didn't know which tendon was wrong, and suddenly it was said that the leg of mutton was made.

"Do you know how to eat lamb shank? I don't know what I'm telling you. Mutton can't be steamed, according to our way of eating, the leg of mutton is worn on a stick, roasted on a fire, simmered slowly, and sprinkled with some ingredients and it's over, oops! It's really crispy and tender, and the mouth is full of oil when you bite into it, and the aftertaste is full of meat."

After he finished speaking, he felt that the atmosphere in the dormitory was not right, and the brothers were all stunned, even Xiao Qi, who boiled water and steamed melons, was dumbfounded.

Hu Dawei scratched his head and asked, "What are you looking at?" What's wrong? ”

The fourth child drooped his head and exhaled helplessly, looked up at Hu Dabao and said, "Brother Hu, no, Master Hu, you are really my fucking nemesis, you are so hungry like this, you mention roast lamb leg with us?" Do you want your brother's life? ”

Lao Wu leaned against the wall, swallowed his saliva and said: "What do you say is like our Quanjude roast duck, hey, I really can't mention it, this thief, but leave us some change, you want to starve us to death, right?" ”

"Hey, can we not mention the food? I beg the uncles to let us live! The third child hurriedly interrupted what they were saying and ran to the outhouse to see if the melon was ripe.

Xiao Qi added a lot of firewood to the stove, burned it vigorously, and it didn't take long to boil the pot. Their dormitory was originally a granary, and when it was converted into a dormitory, they didn't take into account the problem of the layout at all, and the most serious thing was that the outhouse was cooking and burning the fire, and the smoke and water vapor all went into the inner room, and the stuffy sauna seemed to be there, and the bedding was damp and couldn't be covered at all, so they could only try not to cook.

Today, a big pot of water was boiled, and a few people in the back room were steamed out of stinky sweat, and they were still a little comfortable, but the humidity was too great, so they still carried the bedding and straw mat to the yard to lay on the ground.

Hu Da was lying in the courtyard, with a dirty grass mat under him, looking at the sunset in the distance with a shy face, and said with emotion: "That big day is so beautiful!" It's like, what's that, what's that? ”

The sixth child has had a lot of fun recently, and he felt funny when he heard what Hu Dabao said, patted the straw mat and said, "Oh, second brother, do you want to say that it looks like donkey meat is burning?" ”

Hu Dawei was happy to say yes at first, and suddenly lowered his face and said: "You know how to eat, I finally want to pretend to be a cultural person who makes you mix." ”

The third child came out with a pot of melons, and when he heard them talking, he couldn't hold back a smile and said, "Hey, you brothers, you are not only illiterate but also foodies, hurry up and come over to eat." Hearing that the food was coming, a few people didn't talk nonsense, and quickly got up and squatted on the edge of the basin to eat melons.

What they eat is winter melon, which is still green, and it is not a good taste in the mouth, according to Hu Dabao, there is a smell of urine.

Hu Dabao didn't like to eat melons in the first place, and this melon was too raw, it was really not delicious, so he took two bites and threw it down, sitting on the ground and muttering: "How can you eat this thing?" It's better than Liu Hao's noodle soup! ”

Lao Wu was too lazy to take care of him, chewed the melon in his mouth, and finally swallowed it, and listened to Hu Da's chatter and said to him: "Why did you go earlier?" It's not like we won't let you eat at noon, right? It's that you don't want to eat it yourself, what? Now remembered? It's late! If you don't eat melons, go to bed hungry! ”

Hu Dabao was really angry and didn't eat, and he sat in the courtyard sulking. When the others had finished eating the melons, they gathered in front of the oil lamps in the house to discuss what to do later.

In the end, it was decided that everyone would go to the kang and pretend to sleep, and the fourth child would hide in the corner of the stove in front of the outhouse, block it with a water tank, and it would definitely not be discovered when it was dark, and when the time came, he would catch turtles in the urn.

Hu Dabao is very annoying now, others don't take him to play, and he is a little cold when he sits outside, and he rolls up the mat and rubs it back.

When he entered the house, he saw that his brothers were lying down, and they were all thieves, so he said with a shy face: "Hey, hey, I said, make some land for me, I'm sleepy." After speaking, he squeezed in, lay on his back, and after a while began to snore, and fell asleep.

Lao Wu scolded in a low voice: "This master who can eat, sleep, and has no heart." ”

They seemed to pretend to be a little early, and they waited for a long time without moving, so that Hu Dafang was about to fall asleep. The fourth child hid in a small space in the outhouse, which was even more uncomfortable, and he kept scolding in his heart why the thief who killed that day didn't come, and he couldn't hold on.

Lao Wu was lying on the kang and suddenly heard movement in the outhouse, so he quietly poked his head out to see, it turned out that the fourth child was moving his legs there, so he whispered: "Don't move." ”

The fourth child replied: "You, you said briskly, you came to squat for so long to try, and your legs are almost no longer mine." ”

As soon as the words fell, I suddenly saw that the outer door was gently pushed, making a creaking sound, the two of them looked at each other, and those who should hide hid, and those who should pretend to be asleep quickly closed their eyes and lay on their stomachs, waiting for this thief to enter the house!
