Chapter 103: Buying People Back Second Watch
After the meal, Village Chief Xu called Xu Huaiyi, as well as Uncle Liu, Second Uncle Gao, Xu Maoyuan and others, to sit together to discuss things, mainly to sum up the next arrangements, as well as to guard against those refugees.
At night, after the villagers went to sleep, there were more patrolling teams around the yard, all of whom were young and strong offspring, divided into two groups, and took turns.
Xu Huaiyi was in charge of the second half of the night, and when the shift was changed, Gao Zhuang reminded, "There are refugees who came to our side secretly, but they didn't dare to approach, they looked at it from a distance, and there are refugees who went into the mountains to find food, they should also go to the acorns, according to what you said, we just didn't see ......."
Xu Huaiyi nodded, "It's right, there's no need to pay attention to it." ”
Gao Zhuang asked tentatively, "Do you think that as long as they have enough food to eat, they won't worry about calculating us anymore?" ”
Xu Huaiyi smiled, "Most people will indeed dispel the idea of doing evil, but as long as they can live, who wants to be a thief and a bandit?" But some people are bad in their bones, and no matter how much they give him, they can't fill his greed, so we should be on guard or on guard. ”
It's just that after dividing them, the pressure to guard against them is much less.
Tall and strong, with admiration for him, yawned and went back to sleep.
Xu Huaiyi avoided people by untying his hands, took out a telescope to observe around, and sure enough, there were people staring at them in the distance, but there were not many, about a dozen, the leader was in his early thirties, dressed in a long shirt, and looked like a scholar, it should be that he took the initiative to find the village chief Xu and wanted to enter Xujia Village.
According to the village chief Xu, this person claims to be Wang Zhuo, obviously full of calculations, but he is kind and deceptive, and the refugees who fooled him used for him, and he sold him and helped him count the money.
After staring for a while, seeing that those people did not move, he turned around, and vaguely saw that there were shaking torches in the mountain, it seemed that those refugees were beating acorns, and they did not dare to collide with them during the day, for fear of being driven away, so he sneaked in at night, thanks to the good moonlight, otherwise he would not be able to pick up if he fell to the ground.
Stayed up until dawn, the villagers got up one after another, he went back to the car to catch up on sleep, until the village chief Xu came to call him up the mountain, yesterday he said about digging yams, and the big guys listened to it.
The villagers only knew that the yam was a good thing, but they didn't know what it looked like, and they didn't take it with Huaiyi to identify it, and it was useless for them to go up the mountain by themselves.
Xu Huaiyi drank a bowl of pimple soup and took people away, he went for most of the day, and he didn't even come back for lunch, Gu Huanxi didn't worry, there was an RV, he must not be hungry, he was just curious, this digging yam is still addictive, why didn't anyone go down the mountain?
She took Gu Xiaoyu, ground all the acorns into powder, and made chestnut cakes, and even put wild grapes and kiwi fruit into the jar and brewed wine, and Xu Huaiyi came back.
Moreover, it is 'full loaded'.
In addition to digging up a sack of yams, he also brought back three people, to be precise, the next person who bought it for her and her son, a family of three brothers and sisters.
Village Chief Xu dispersed the people who wanted to see the excitement, and in the simple house without a roof, only Gu Huanxi and Xu Huaiyi were left, and even Gu Xiaoyu went to the door to guard with interest.
Gu Huanxi sat on the recliner, his fingertips clasped on the armrests, his voice was neither light nor heavy, but it was very oppressive, "Say, what's going on?" ”
Xu Huaiyi didn't dare to sit, just stood so straight and straight, and said with a small flattery, "Daughter-in-law, I see that you and Xiaoyu work too weekdays, from morning to night, you can't be idle for a moment, but I feel distressed, marrying you back is to make you happy, how can you live this kind of life?" ”
Gu Huanxi said with a smile, "So, you bought someone to come back to serve us?" ”
Xu Huaiyi explained with a smile, "It's not deliberate, it's all fate, I happened to meet such an opportunity, I think it's quite appropriate, so my head is hot, first cut and then play, daughter-in-law, I was wrong, even if I am a good heart, I shouldn't make my own opinion, I should come back first and ask what you mean, you nodded, in order to bring people back, this time without your consent, I made my own decisions, it's all my fault, daughter-in-law, if you want to beat or scold, I admit it, just don't be angry, I can't see you angry......"
Saying that, he squatted down, leaned to her leg with a hippie smile, and went to shake her hand, but after she was angry and shook it off, he changed it to hug her leg, and begged in a low voice, "Daughter-in-law, can you spare me this time?" I really didn't mean to make you angry, I really planned for your good, but also for our family, buy those three people, definitely not a loss, and can only take advantage of their despair to have this opportunity, otherwise, they will not sell themselves into slavery, after this village, there will be no such shop, you also said before, when the opportunity comes, you have to seize it immediately, indecision will not become a big tool, I will implement your spiritual instructions to do it......"
Gu Huanxi screwed him hard, "You are still quibbling!" ”
Xu Huaiyi grinned in pain, and did not forget to shout injustice, "The conscience of heaven and earth, daughter-in-law, I swear, I am really the one who bought because of you, and it is definitely not inflated, let alone indiscriminate!" ”
Gu Huanxi asked suspiciously, "Is it really because of sympathy for them that you brought people back?" ”
Xu Huaiyi said with a hurt face, "Daughter-in-law, when did I lie to you?" How can you not believe me? My heart, wow cool wow cool ......"
Gu Huanxi glanced at him with disgust, "Let's add more drama to yourself, be serious, hurry up and make it clear, what do you fancy about them?" ”
Xu Huaiyi explained seriously, "These three people are brothers and sisters, they have followed us all the way from Qingzhou, and they were the first to take that step, what does this mean?" It shows that they have a certain amount of knowledge, and their brains are not stupid, of course, this is not the reason why I bought them......"
Gu Huanxi thought of something and reacted, "The oldest ...... Do you know kung fu? ”
Xu Huaiyi nodded, "Not only will, but it's also quite good, I don't know what level it is at the moment, but in our era, I guess I can win a martial arts championship." ”
Gu Huanxi raised his eyebrows, "What about how it compares to you?" ”
Xu Huaiyi's expression froze, and then he said depressedly, "A little bit better than me......"
Gu Huanxi hooked the corners of his lips and teased, "It's not easy, I can make you admit that your skills are not as good as others, so you buy him back, and face such a person who is better than you every day, don't you panic in your heart?" ”
Xu Huaiyi subconsciously said, "He is only better than me in martial arts, and he is not as good as ...... in other aspects" After a pause, he said sadly, "Daughter-in-law, do you know now how much I can endure for you?" ”
Gu Huanxi snorted, "So, are you making him responsible for protecting me in the future?" So what's the use of you? ”
Xu Huaiyi said with a rare face, "I'm afraid of what if, what if I can't be by your side in time?" Just like today, I'm going to the mountains, and if a bad guy comes at this time, what are you going to do? The villagers are too busy to take care of themselves, who will protect you? Even if we have an RV, it's not foolproof, what if you can't avoid it? ”
"Do you think those refugees are going to be bad?"
"Well, I'm not afraid of 10,000, just in case, one more layer of protection, I can rest assured, he is better than me, I signed a death contract with him, and he will protect you and children with his life for the rest of his life."
