Chapter XXXIX

It has been a few days since the villagers of Liujin Village embarked on the road to escape the famine.

This was the first time that the village chief had summoned representatives of each household to attend the meeting.

The representative of the Mei family is naturally Qiao Huaping.

Sister Du didn't know what was going on, so she shook her fan and called Qiao Huaping to watch the excitement together.

Qiao Huaping knew what this was for, but it was not easy to say it directly at this time, so he just smiled and agreed to Sister Du's appointment.

The four children of the Mei family also wanted to see the excitement.

Qiao Huaping thought about it, it wasn't impossible, she told Mei Qingyao to go outside when the time comes, find a high place, just move a few stones to see the excitement, don't get too close.

She instructed Mei Qinghuang again: "When the time comes, I will call you over, and you will come to me." ”

Since Mei Qinghuang woke up, his attitude towards Qiao Huaping has been very strange. He looked down at his toes, didn't look at Qiao's screen, and let out an "um" from his throat.

Sister Du couldn't help but sigh.

These days, how her sister Qiao is kind to these four children, she has always seen it.

It is precisely because of this that she also knows that Sister Qiao is not a vicious little stepmother who abuses her stepson and stepdaughter as rumored in the village - at least, not now.

But now Mei Qinghuang's appearance is like a stone that is not enthusiastic.

Not to mention Sister Du, even Mei Qingyao felt a little strange.

Qiao Huaping has made a good meal, Mei Qinghuang has always been like a puppy who has seen meat and bones, when he was hit by bee venom before, didn't he rely on her?

Why do you turn your face and don't recognize people now?

Only Mei Qinghuang's twin brother Mei Qingyu can probably understand what his younger brother's brain circuit thinks.

- Mei Qingyu observed quietly, and did not break it.

The person in question, Qiao Huaping, actually didn't care very much.

She stroked Mei Qinghuang's fluffy hair for no reason, and then said, "Let's go." ”

……

In the middle of the clearing, a bonfire was lit up.

It was night, and the weather was a little hot in the summer, and the villagers were reluctant to get too close to the bonfire, so they sat away from the bonfire, but naturally formed a circle.

Qiao Huaping and the others didn't go early, so they picked a random place to sit.

The children of the Mei family, who did not belong to the representatives of each household, sat on the stones a little outside the crowd and watched the excitement.

Facts have proved that it is not only the children of the Mei family who came to see the excitement, many villagers have dragged their children over to listen to what the village chief has to say.

Soon, the village chief came.

The descendants beside him also brought a gong, which looked very formal.

"Bang!"

As soon as the gong sounded, the villagers present fell silent.

Even the children who were a little excited to see the excitement outside were glared at by the adults at home and quieted down.

The village chief cleared his throat and said in a deep voice: "Everyone must be very strange, at night, I, as the village chief, did not let the big guy rest, and called the big guy over for something." ”

There were sparse people in the crowd responding, "Yes, village chief, what the hell is going on?" I'm quite tired after a day of traveling, and I want to rest early. ”

The village chief nodded: "Indeed, everyone has worked hard in the past few days of escaping the famine. "The village chief is not young, a man in his forties, but he is already half a head of silver frost and white hair, with dark circles on his eyes, and he looks very haggard.

His voice was low: "Why did everyone leave their hometowns, drag the old and the young with them, and rush to another place for thousands of miles?" ”

The villagers, who had only a few sporadic complaints, fell silent.

"We gave up so much just to survive. Find a place away from the war shortage, so that our descendants can live in peace and stability? There was already a little excitement in the village chief's voice.

These words aroused the empathy of most of the villagers.

Yes, if the present world is stable, who wants to leave their homeland and leave the place where their ancestors have lived for many years?

Some villagers have already begun to have sour eyes.

Although they have only been away for a few days, they are already starting to miss their hometown.

"But! I'm bringing you all together tonight to say that! The village chief's voice was raised, and his emotions were a little excited, "The people of our Liujin Village have always been simple and kind people!" Now, there is a vicious person who deliberately plucked the beehive and used the hornet to attack the children of other people! ”

As soon as these words came out, many people gasped!

Many people know about Mei Qinghuang and Zhou Xiaoqing being stung by wasps before, but what they don't know is that this thing was actually deliberately done by someone? !

In the past few years, there have been people stung to death by wasps almost every year, and everyone in the village knows how poisonous wasps are.

Someone deliberately used hornets to harm people!

Who doesn't have children?!

Today is the children of the Mei family and the Zhou family who were stung by a wasp, so tomorrow, it may be their children who were stung by a wasp!

"Who is it! Who the hell is it?! It's so vicious! ”

"Yes! The children of the Mei family and the Zhou family are not yet ten years old! Who can do such a vicious thing!? ”

With a wave of his hand, the village chief asked a few strong descendants in the village to bring up the sturdy Gao from the shadows.

When the villagers saw Gao's, they all gasped.

In the past, the Gao family liked to gather at the head of the village and tell others that the east family and the west family were short, and he was very familiar with many aunts and aunts in the village.

Later, the Gao family was too pampered by his only son Cao Hongchang, and Cao Hongchang took a few bear children in the village to bully people every day, which made people tired of dogs and annoying.

The partial-born Gao family has an older brother who works as an errand in the county government, and the villagers of Liujin Village are instinctively afraid of the official, and they are not easy to see like Cao Hongchang.

Now, when they heard the village chief say that the Gao family was the gangster who picked the hornet and deliberately murdered Mei Qinghuang and Zhou Xiaoqing, they all gasped, but after thinking about it, they felt that it seemed to be somewhat reasonable.

Only the Cao family, as well as the relatives of the Cao family, refused to believe it, and shouted indignantly: "Fake! It's definitely fake! ”

"yes, any proof?!"

"Village chief, catch the bad guys and pay attention to a piece of evidence, and you can't say who it is!"

"Yes, yes, yes, there is no basis for what you say!"

There was a lot of commotion, and there were still many Cao family members who wanted to rush up to untie the Gao family, but fortunately, the village chief had already instructed a few juniors to pay attention, and these juniors were directly in front of the Gao family, and they didn't let the Cao family get close to half a minute at all.

The village chief had long expected that the people of the Cao family would not believe it, and he glanced at the descendants around him.

The next posterior struck the gong heavily.

"Bang!"

The gong sounded loudly.

The chaotic Cao family was a little quieter.

"I know you don't believe it, but I have witnesses and evidence." The village chief shouted in a deep voice, "Qiao's! ”

Qiao Huaping answered and got up.
