As he got closer, Liu Xing saw several villagers in the same village, who followed behind with flashlights, and their faces were not good-looking.

Among these villagers are the dog's parents, as well as the village chief Wang of saltpeter village.

This posture and this oppressive atmosphere made Liu Xing know that Liu Ye was in trouble for the first time, otherwise it would be absolutely impossible to go home so late, and it would be impossible to have the money to buy big bubble gum.

"It's just that what trouble did Liu Ye do?" Liu Xing frowned and thought slightly, according to the memory in the sea of knowledge, he immediately knew what was going on.

In order to avoid harming the melon seeds, he walked towards the hall with the melon seeds at the moment, and closed the door as soon as possible.

About five or six minutes later, Liu Ye's wolf howl and the whipping of bamboo sticks came from the barn field.

Liu Xing knew that his father was doing it, so he covered the ears of the melon seeds.

But Guazi couldn't help but ask, "Brother, what happened to the fourth brother?"

"Swap other people's stuff for money. ”

"Don't learn. Liu Xing replied with a light sigh.

"Uh-huh!" melon seeds nodded obediently.

Liu Xing looked out the window through the light, and his thoughts suddenly returned to the eighty-two years before his rebirth.

In his memory, this incident seems to have been triggered by a large scale that Liu Ye and the dog picked up on the way from school, and this big scale is the kind of pig seller.

Later, the owner came over, but Liu Ye not only did not return it in time, but also secretly sold it for money at the instigation of the dog.

And I bought snacks at school for the first time.

That's how the big bubblegum money came about before.

Liu Ye thought that no one could do anything about him, but this matter made a big fuss in the school, and finally alarmed the village chief Wang and the secretary of Saltpeter Village.

So there is the current scene.

According to Village Chief Wang's meaning, Liu Ye must be found to educate him well.

After all, such an approach is hateful.

If it weren't for Liu Ye still being a child, this matter would definitely not be over.

However, what everyone didn't know was because of Liu Ye's greed.

made the originally depressed 'home' even worse.

If Liu Xing is not mistaken, his mother borrowed money from his uncle's house.

This time, it was all lost to the owner of the scale.

And my father was angry because of this, lying in bed without eating for a day.

The wound on the foot was thus exacerbated and eventually turned into a disability.

Before he was reborn, Liu Xing once said good things for Liu Ye.

After all, he knows in his heart what his younger brother's character is.

Although he is high and ambitious, he is definitely not a bad person.

Later, I asked the children of the same village as the dog, and the scale was indeed picked up.

I wanted to return it too, but the owner of the scale spoke unpleasantly.

That's why we got into the situation that followed.

Although the owner of the scale is at fault.

But Liu Xing, who has decades of life experience, knows.

Even if this is the case, he can't help Liu Ye.

Helping him is tantamount to hurting him.

Because this guy is so unpragmatic and thinks about unrealistic things all day long.

Only when he encounters setbacks can he recognize himself.

Do things down-to-earth and learn with peace of mind.

The cries, wolf howls, scolding, and whistling outside the house faded away, and finally became quiet.

Liu Xing knew that his parents had finished talking in front of Village Chief Wang, and that he had already taken care of the matter, so he walked out with melon seeds.

Liu Ye and the dog were still kneeling on the barn, choking twice from time to time.

Liu Xing didn't pay attention to them, but came to his parents' side: "You guys hurry up and cook! There are still river crabs in the bucket, and they won't taste good if they die." ”

"Hey!" Zhou Qiuxiang agreed, and went to the kitchen with the melon seeds snuggled at her feet.

Liu Dazhao stretched out his hand and patted Liu Xing's shoulder, and after glancing at Liu Ye, he limped into the hall.

A heavy sigh came, so that Liu Xing didn't know what to say when he stayed where he was.

But he knew that he shouldn't think about it now, but get the money as soon as possible.

Otherwise, my father's feet will really become crippled again.

Seeing that the shallots and wild celery under the eaves had not yet been tied, he turned around and walked towards the straw pile in the barnyard.

The stalks of shallots, also known as wild garlic sprouts, are delicious when stir-fried with pork and beef.

In a few decades, a large hotel can sell for seventy or eighty yuan, and the supply is still in short supply.

It's '82, and although many people can't eat meat all year round, Liu Xing believes that as long as he handles it well, this wild garlic sprout should be able to be sold.

As for the price, he does not expect it to be high.

After all, it's all a business without capital.

And wild celery, no other effect.

If you boil the fish, put it in a handful, and it will be extraordinarily fragrant.

At more than nine o'clock in the evening, Liu Xing tied up the wild garlic sprouts and wild celery, bundled them neatly, and put them in the shade of the backyard for the first time.

Seeing that there was nothing wrong with him anymore, after talking to his parents, he went back to his room to sleep.

There is no way, I have to get up at three or four o'clock in the morning tomorrow to go to the city to sell things, so it is better to go to bed early.

What he didn't know was that after he fell asleep, he secretly took out a bowl of boiled river crabs from the kitchen and put it in front of Liu Ye: "Fourth brother, hurry up while it's hot, don't go hungry." ”

The fourth brother is the honorific title of Liu Ye for melon seeds, when she is unhappy, she will call Liu Ye, and if she provokes melon seeds, she will also call Liu Ye's nickname 'skin monkey'. However, such a situation is rare, unless Liu Ye completely annoys the melon seeds.

"You...... Why are you so good to me?" Liu Ye's eyes were rolling with tears.

"Because the nests are brothers and sisters!"

"It's hard to see you hungry and the nest. Melon Seed tilted his little head and replied.

As soon as Liu Ye heard this, he burst into tears, crying so loudly that even the black calf in the bullpen was almost startled.

Obviously, Liu Ye was hit by the heartwarming behavior of melon seeds.

At this time, in addition to guilt, there is more shame in the heart.

The dog kneeling beside him didn't have such an idea, and looked at the river crab in the bowl with envy, almost drooling.

Liu Dazhao and Zhou Qiuxiang in the kitchen saw this scene, looked at each other and didn't bother with it.

After all, they could see that Liu Ye had sincerely repented this time, otherwise he wouldn't have cried more sadly because of a bowl of river crabs than he had been beaten before.

......

At about two o'clock in the morning, Liu Xing secretly got up.

First, the black calf was led from the bullpen to the gate.

Then the two large bamboo baskets prepared last night were fastened to the black calf's back with rope.

After doing all this, he put the cleaned river snails into the bamboo basket.

Seeing that the one on the right was still more than half empty, he put the lotus root in again.

As for the wild celery and garlic sprouts, he packed them in a woven bag and put them on top of the bamboo basket.

Seeing that everything was almost ready, he packed the forty-five eggs that his mother had given him with rice bran and carefully placed them on top of the wild celery.

The reason why this is done is to prevent the eggs from breaking.

If it is broken, it will not be the money that will be lost, but also the medical expenses that the father needs.

After all, no matter what, eggs are hard currency in the city, and snails can't compare with wild vegetables.

"Son, there's one more thing you forgot to bring. The door of the hall creaked open, and then Zhou Qiuxiang appeared in front of Liu Xing with a small scale.

"Mom, haven't you slept all night?" Liu Xing was surprised by his mother's appearance.

"Well, your dad had a fever after falling asleep at night, and he didn't even sleep with me all night. Zhou Qiuxiang didn't hide it, and told the inside story with a light sigh.

"Then I bought a conch today, and I'll go and invite Dr. Wang. Liu Xing said anxiously.

Originally, he wanted to let his mother go to Dr. Wang now, but in the end, he thought about it, because he knew his father's stubborn temper, and he would never ask for a doctor on credit.

"You sell the river crab first, and then you don't have to worry about Dr. Wang. ”

"Remember...... Be careful on the road. Zhou Qiuxiang handed the small scale to Liu Xing: "Be careful, I borrowed this from your grandfather's house last night." ”

"Hmm. Liu Xing nodded.

There are indeed no small scales for trading in the house, which he has long known, and in order to cope with this problem, he specially prepared a number of small woven bags.

Now it seems that he is thinking a little too much.

Mother had already prepared everything for him in secret.

"Let's go!" Zhou Qiuxiang waved his hand: "If you don't go and wait for the melon baby to get up, then you won't be able to leave." ”

As soon as these words fell, Liu Xing saw the little head of the melon seed poking out from the gate, and a pair of big eyes were flickering at him.

"Brother, Wo also wants to play with you. After a timid look at her mother, Melon Seed finally mustered up the courage to say.
