Chapter 328: The Great Banquet

The sudden arrival of the village chief reminded Lao Wu of several things, a few days ago, the grave slope was disturbed, and the forest and the forest farm were burned, and he was passing by that day and he looked at the grave slope on the mountain bag in the distance, and the trees were burned to black charcoal, and there was basically nothing black and yellow.

Lao Wu was still sitting by the well, and his mind went round and round, thinking that this Niu Village Chief would definitely not come over to hang out, so there must be something wrong with coming to them. Didn't you hear the villagers say a few days ago that they would reopen the mountains and plant forests to find them to do coolies? He didn't want to do that job, it was not as easy as digging a grave.

"Hey, old Wu! What are you doing here? Is Ming'er free? Village Chief Niu walked over to Lao Wu with his hands behind his back.

When he was asked if he had anything to do tomorrow, Lao Wu could be sure that he was here to arrest him for work, so he quickly threw down his cigarette butt and said to the village chief Niu with a wry smile: "No, Lao Niu, you listen to me, we have to go to the county tomorrow to report, Director Liu has too many things, he has to ask us to go, you say that this is not far away and you don't pay us, you will toss people!" I won't be free tomorrow, I'm really not free, and besides, I can't do that kind of mountain work now because I'm not in good health. ”

Village Chief Niu had just pulled the cigarette bag and pot out of his trouser waistband, and suddenly raised his eyes to look at Lao Wu, and asked him strangely: "What kind of mountain, what are you talking about?" I'm not here to work for you, tomorrow invite the whole village to dinner, just behind my house, if you go to work during the day, anyway, come back to eat at night, I still have to talk or something, it's not good to see this person less! Gotta come! ”

Lao Wu didn't expect that this old cow who usually picks and searches can still invite guests to dinner, and he also invites the whole village, this is not a brain kicked by a donkey, then it must be a windfall. Lao Wu smiled and asked him, "What kind of mat do you have nothing to do?" Hey, I said, did you dig up gold when you opened the mountain? ”

"What gold? Don't you dare to talk nonsense! How do you think about it when others hear this? It's not that our forest farm was burned, and the county came down a few days ago to inform us that it would compensate us. Continue to plant trees in the coming year, and those that are burned will be exchanged for food subsidies at the original price to distribute to the big guys, and some money will be given to the village, so that I can organize the big guys to have a big feast, or we can still mix such good things? By the way, didn't Lao Wu go to the county seat tomorrow? I can't eat all the money in my search. Just slaughter a pig and stew some food to eat, but you still have to get some dry food or something, you go to the county tomorrow and come back to help me bring some sesame cakes in that county, that delicious all love to eat, that's all. Lao Niu squatted on the side with a cigarette pouch and pot and said to Lao Wu, and took out some change from his pocket, counted it for a long time, estimated that it was enough, and handed it to Lao Wu, asking him to come back tomorrow to bring dry food.

It's been many years since I made it to the big table, and I can't see that I can often drink mutton soup for a while. Although this lamb is more expensive than pork, the big banquet is different. This big banquet usually refers to the end of the folk traditional customs such as marriage, birthday, funeral, etc., when there are many people, they are all 100 times, put on a few large tables, on which are eight big bowls, eight meat and eight vegetables full of a table, that guy let go of the food, but it is lively.

Although Lao Wu doesn't like to join in the fun, you can go to eat at the country banquet. Touched by that lively and festive energy, the future will be much smoother. So I agreed to the village chief. After he sent him away, he thought that they wouldn't go to the county seat tomorrow at all, this mouth was really fast, they were going to eat, and they had to help run errands. Just looking for a few brothers came back from outside, I heard the big beard shouting: "Hey, I said! See! Catch big fish empty-handed! ”

Lao Wu listened strangely to catch a big fish empty-handed. But when I looked up, I saw that Hu Dawei was only wearing pants, and his whole body was full of sailors, and he was carrying a half-sized dead fish on his head, and he threw it and entered the hospital.

Hu Dabao came in and saw Lao Wu sitting by the well in the courtyard, so he shook the dead fish in his hand and said, "Lao Wu, let's drink fish soup tonight!" Look at this, I caught it! ”

The fourth child also came in from behind, with a smile on his face. I don't know what I'm happy about. After the brothers behind him came in, he couldn't do it with a smile, and said to Lao Wu with his teeth glaring: "Big brother, you lost money if you didn't go just now!" Hey, hey, laughed! ”

It turned out that when the village chief Niu was talking to Lao Wu about the big banquet just now, the six brothers were bathing in the stream, and Hu Dazhu stood aside and said that he was going to jump in and stab him. But the stream was just below his knees, so how could he pierce it, and he couldn't knock his head open. But Hu Da Arm had already pouted his ass and jumped up, scaring his brothers so much that they hurriedly dodged, for fear that he would knock his head on the stone. But seeing Hu Da Arm plunged into the water, he floated up horizontally, sat in the water with his head covered, and shouted why he didn't slide out of the water and hit the bottom directly, but before he finished speaking, a dead fish with a white belly floated out of the water, and the brothers took a closer look, and then looked at the fish scales stuck on the top of Hu Da Wing's head, and immediately laughed.

It was because of this incident that the brothers laughed, and Hu Dabao grabbed the fish and threw them away, and came back after a mess, Hu Dabao also brought the fish back, saying that it was empty-handed catching fish and boiling fish soup at night.

After Lao Wu frowned and listened to what they said, he smiled wryly and gave them some face, thinking that this beard is too fucking stupid, does this person have a long brain? I wanted to follow my brothers to hurt him a few words, but suddenly remembered that I could eat a big banquet tomorrow, so I hurriedly told them about it, and by the way, I asked which diligent person would go to the county tomorrow to buy sesame flatbread.

As soon as I heard that I could eat a big seat, but I had to go to the county to buy something and come back, I was too lazy to move, the distance back and forth was really not close, and it was still a mountain road, and no one wanted to grind the soles of my feet.

In the end, Xiao Qi shook his hair and said to Lao Wu: "Big brother is fine, I'll go tomorrow morning, and I'll be back before noon, what else do you want, I'll buy it back by the way, so what's wrong?" ”

Hu Dabao hurriedly said: "Medium! That's the best! With that, he went back to the house, apparently to deal with the fish.

The fourth brother rubbed to Lao Wu's side, asked him for a cigarette, and after a few puffs, he looked up and said to Xiao Qi: "Qi'er called the fourth brother in a hurry, I will go with you in the morning, the rats in our house don't want to come, there is nothing, especially the quilt is about to grow hair." Take advantage of the fact that you can have some money in your pocket now, don't spend it indiscriminately, buy a set of bedding for each person, and then buy some basins or something. ”

is still the fourth child is the most confident, Lao Wu has always wanted to buy it, but he forgot about it, and he was afraid that the fourth child would not have enough money in his pocket, so Lao Wu stuffed him with all the money in his pocket. But this is really quite suspenseful, the next day thanks to the fourth and Xiao Qi went together, otherwise there will be a murder on the stall! (To be continued......)
