Chapter 87: The third day of the fourth month
Let's talk about the morning of the third day of the fourth month.
Of the 300 households in Luojia Village, Weishan County, many of them got up early and gathered outside the village chief's house with their packages.
Wait for the village chief to come out and take everyone to Beishan County.
Luo Sanmu dragged his own cart, and it was already late, and his children had already crowded into the crowd and gathered with other children in the same village.
"It's all blocked at the door of my uncle's house."
His wife, Jiang Chan, walked behind the cart, could watch the things on the cart and help push the cart.
"Small clouds, stones." Jiang Chan shouted to the children in the crowd, "Don't run around, you won't be able to walk when the time comes." ”
"Mother!" Daughter Xiaoyun heard the sound and immediately ran back to Jiang Chan's side, but the younger son didn't hear it, Jiang Chan shouted several times, and Luo Shishi was willing to come back from the group of children.
"Mother." He complained, "The adults in their family don't shout, why are you calling me, and besides, don't we have a board car, and I can't walk and take the board car directly." ”
"Your dad pulls so many things, don't you say that you want to take the car while pushing in the back? You kid, do you know how far we are from Beishan County! ”
"Okay, don't talk about the kids." Luo Sanmu saw that his wife was scolding more and more fiercely, and turned around and persuaded, "He is a little kid who expects him to know anything, just play if he wants, and he is not one of them, when the time comes, you and Xiaoyun can't walk, and you can sit in the car together, and I can still pull it." ”
The family was talking, and suddenly a voice next to him interjected, "Third child, since you can pull it, then put my things in your car." ”
It was Luo Sanmu's cousin-in-law Wang Lamei who spoke.
This person not only talked about it, but also put a large package on the board car in his hand, "It's good to have a board car, not only is it convenient to transport food, but it is also very convenient to transport things, look at how much your car can load, my things are just right to put up!" ”
"Sister-in-law Lamei." Jiang Chan's brows furrowed at that time, blocking her from continuing to put it, "We have to pack other things in the car, and we can't fit your things." ”
"Why can't I fit it?" The sister-in-law tried to avoid Jiang Chan's block, "I see that there is still a lot of space, and even my tables, chairs and benches can be placed on top of each other." ”
"Sister-in-law Lamei, I still have my sister-in-law's things in the car that I haven't put on, I really can't let you go, you can borrow it from someone else." Jiang Chan moved all the packages she put on.
"Hey, where are you like that?" Lamei's sister-in-law said, "My things have already been put on, and it takes a lot of effort to move them around, so it's better to let your sister-in-law think of other ways." ”
"Auntie is really good at talking." Luo Yun hid behind her mother and said, "It's obvious that she did something wrong, and I have to ask my mother how she behaved." ”
"Xiaoyun! Don't talk nonsense. Luo Sanmu took off the rope on his shoulder, turned around and said: "Sister-in-law Lamei, there are always relatives who are distant and close, I have to settle my family properly first, and I can only help you if I have spare strength."
You don't waste time. He put down Wang Lamei's things in the car, "While everyone is here now, find someone else to do you a favor, otherwise when everyone leaves, you will have no choice at all." ”
"This ...... Who can I ask for help, it's easy for the third child to do......"
Luo Sanmu didn't let her finish her words, "Look at whose car is free, give some money, say some good things, there is always someone willing to help you." ”
"Hey, the third child, then I'll give it to you."
"Sister-in-law, I told you that there is no vacancy in my car." After Luo Sanmu finished speaking, he pulled the cart and left, turned around a row of houses in front of him, and stopped in front of a mud house.
This is the home of his widowed sister-in-law, who is laboriously tying a large package with her child.
Jiang Chan took the child in to help.
Luo Sanmu stood at the door and asked, "You want me to help me." ”
"Sister-in-law has almost cleaned up, you load the tables and chairs at the door into the car, don't someone want to load things on our car at that time."
Luo Sanmu was loading things at the door, looking in the direction of the village chief's house from time to time, and suddenly saw someone going to the house, Luo Laosan put down the things in his hand and went over there, "Stone, tell your mother, I'll go to the village chief's house to see." ”
"Hey!" Luo Shishi was very happy to receive the task, and he just regarded it as a holy decree and passed it to his mother.
"What's wrong?" Luo Sanmu quickly squeezed into the middle of the crowd.
"Miki is here." The people huddled in the village chief's courtyard said, "Let Miki talk about it." ”
"Say what?" Luo Sanmu just came over, and he didn't understand what was going on in the courtyard, "Uncle, why don't you clean up your things at home?" ”
"There's no hurry." The village chief said, "You young people go first, and if it's good, stay there, and send a letter back, and we'll go back, and if it's not good, you will come back, and I'll show you this place." ”
Luo Sanmu didn't expect that yesterday the village chief took the villagers to kneel down to thank the county lord of Beishan County, but today it is like this.
"Uncle, didn't you say it all, why didn't you go again?" Luo Sanmu asked.
"Hey Miki, you tell the village chief, what kind of person is the county lord of Beishan County, the village chief doesn't believe what I say, he should always believe your words."
"Are you worried about the county lord of Beishan County?" Luo Sanmu said, "We have been building walls in Beishan County for a long time, and we can be regarded as knowing the county master, not to mention anything else, at least one point, that little man is not greedy."
We eat good meals three times a day in Beishan County, and we have never been short of food. ”
"An official who is not greedy is not necessarily a good official." The village chief said, "If you don't say that you are not greedy now, it doesn't mean that you won't be greedy in the future, and if you don't talk about other places, let's just say that in this Weishan County, which of the previous magistrates was greedy when he took office?"
What's more, it was a rather young official, and the young man's ideas were changeable, and I didn't know how he became an official, so I always felt that he was more untrustworthy than others.
Do as I say. The village chief made up his mind, "You are young and have good physical strength, go over and have a look first, if it is really good, we will go again, both sides occupy a place to stay." ”
"Uncle, if you had come up with this idea two months ago, I would have agreed, but now it's April, and the grain will be planted in the field soon." Luo Sanmu said, "Spring plowing cannot be delayed, and all the time that comes and goes is wasted on the road." ”
"Yes, village chief, what Miki said makes sense."
"I'm getting older, and I always want to do things perfectly." The village chief sat on a chair in the courtyard, "Spring plowing cannot be delayed, but moving the village is not a trivial matter, I would rather be wasted for a year than rashly bump into an unfamiliar place." ”
The young man standing in the courtyard was speechless for a while.
Everyone looked at each other, hoping that someone would come out and say something and make a decision.
In the end, Luo Sanmu stood up, "Since the uncle said so, then do this, after all, he is older and has more knowledge than us."
Our family went first, and there were people who were willing to come with me, and there was a good answer on the way. ”
