reborn to the dead end

Jiang Yeming still understands the reason why horses have no night and grass is not fat. Every night, he grinds the end of the mat to get some pasture out of the mustard seeds to feed the lambs in the sheepfold. A flock of nine sheep is not very spectacular. , but the food should not be skipped at all, or they will have to be reduced instead of growing.

Zhang Hai, who has no specific impression of the robbery, feels that the robbery is a scene that only appears on TV news.This scene in reality always makes people feel that it is fake, or hallucinations.

Xi Mo took Jiang Yeming and Zhang Hai to the foot of the mountain to catch those wild animals that rushed down the mountain to find food because they were so hungry. The three of them really picked up a lot of thin wild boars and wild rabbits. The guys' movements are not very agile, Xi Mo and Jiang Yeming grasped them accurately, like pulling carrots.Zhang Hai, who moved slowly, stared straight at his eyes, waiting for the knocked-out animals to pile up in front of him.

Xi Mo and Jiang Yeming cleaned up the little guys that were jumping around at the foot of the mountain, and even knocked holes in the frozen river, catching four or five grass carp and fat head fish weighing more than two catties. Let's take a look at the size and species of these fish At the end of the day, Xi Mo knew that there must be a gap in some pond, and all the fish raised in it ran out.

The three of them had just packed up today's results and were about to go back when they were blocked by a few young people.

Since Xi Mo didn't go to school for a few years, he even went to Haibin City once. He was not very familiar with the young people in the village. He didn't recognize this group of people. They didn't wear them, and they wore earmuffs on their ears. Although the clothes behind them were not very neat, they still looked thick.

Jiang Yeming tilted his lips and looked at each other tacitly at the end of the table, both of them could see the playfulness in each other's eyes.Zhang Hai stared blankly, and it took him a long time to realize that he was about to be robbed.

The young man with yellow hair breathed a sigh of relief, showing his banditry: "I said, you three, keep your things, we won't trouble you." This was the most uncreative robbery language Xi Mo had ever heard.

"Oh, when I just came here, I saw you wandering around at the entrance of the village. You are so idle, and the mountain is full of these things. Why are you unwilling to even bend over? It is not good to get something for nothing. "Jiang Yeming wanted to amuse everyone, he hasn't encountered such a fun thing for a long time.

"Why don't you understand human language, I'll ask you to hand over what you're holding!" There was a bold one, who spoke with his nostrils upturned in a funny way.

"Why, we have been busy for a long time, and you are so kind, you have hands and feet." Zhang Hai yelled.

The young man with yellow hair was very sloppy, and he pulled out a bright kitchen knife with his bare hands, "I told you well that you won't listen, what nonsense, quickly hand over the things to me."

Zhang Hai was dumbfounded now, it was true, and he said imaginatively: "Xi Mo, should we call the police?"

Everyone laughed. Where did the idiot come from? He even called the police. Don’t he know that the sky is high and the emperor is far away?

"Does your phone still have battery?" Jiang Yeming asked kindly.

Zhang Hai broke into a cold sweat: "It's shut down early, what should we do, they have knives in their hands, should we give them something? But it took a lot of work at the end of the meeting, I can't bear it."

Xi Mo smiled calmly, and threw two pheasants to Huangmao Xiaonian: "This is for you, and I have to take the rest back to support the family. I don't have to give it away. There will definitely be some at the foot of the mountain later." Then a few will jump out, you do it yourself, there are more ways than robbery, and I don't want to do it with you."

After Xi Mo finished speaking, he raised his eyebrows. He noticed that there were two young people in the crowd who should be from the village.

Seeing that the three people at Xi Mo were so ignorant, the young man with yellow hair got annoyed, and turned his head to wink at a few of his companions, brandishing a kitchen knife and rushing to Xi Mo, and the others also followed suit. swarm.

Zhang Hai clasped the bamboo basket in his arms tightly, there were six big frozen fish in it, Xiao Yang and Grandma Zhang liked to drink fish soup with fat head fish the most.

Xi Mo basically kicked one foot at a time, and a large group of young people slid far away on the ice. Jiang Yeming stood on the side and applauded. Oh, his Xi Mo's kicking movements are so cool.

Zhang Hai's expression showed his depressed mood at this moment. He really didn't know that Xi Mo's skill was so good, one kick at a time.

No one found out where Xi Mo took out a long rope, twisted it a few times, and tied several people on the ground together. Xi Mo also tied two young people in the village to the front. You are too ignorant, you shouldn't bring people into the village to steal and rob.

Xi Mo sent all the harvest of today to his home, and Jiang Yeming led a dozen or so young people who were tied together to the entrance of the village. He went to the old captain's house. Xi Mo knew that this was just the beginning. It will still happen, although it is not serious, but it is still necessary to put an end to it.If you still can't remind everyone to pay attention, when more serious incidents happen in the future, it will probably be ineffective every day. After all, not everyone is like him and Jiang Yeming. skill and luck.

The two young men were taken home by their respective parents. They belonged to the Shangkou Brigade in the village.The village secretary criticized the two young men in front of dozens of impromptu gatherings. Most of the villagers were impatient, probably because the weather was too cold, and they didn't care about this matter, so they left one after another. many people.

The secretary of the village committee smiled and narrowed his eyes, and handed the rope to Xi Mo: "Boy, today's matter is really pending. Fortunately, you are fine. There are two people from the village. We discussed whether they can stay in the same village." Be sympathetic and don't make trouble in the police station, it's cold."

Xi Mo's face was cold, everyone saw that the parents of Er Hu, a young man with the surname of Hu, stuffed something into the village secretary. As for what it was, everyone didn't need to know it. , the same everywhere.Everyone doesn't pay attention to it anymore, and there is no need to be serious at the end of the ceremony.

"Secretary, you have said that, so I have nothing to discuss. The matter is decided by you, and I have nothing to say. Those few people, if you want to let them go." Xi Mo's words were indifferent, You can't hear his true emotions.

Zhang Hai can also understand everyone's solution. People in a village are more or less related. If they don't give this favor, they will probably be called impersonal.

Jiang Yeming was so angry, these ignorant people, didn't everyone see the arrogant expressions of the young people?Also, what are the expressions of those two young people? Could it be that they want to seek revenge from Xi Mo?When the young man surnamed Erhu went back with his parents, he gave Xi Mo a sideways glance. The look in his eyes meant provocation, and Xi Mo raised his eyebrows when he saw it. Yeming was worrying that the day was too peaceful and ordinary.

Zhang Hai followed Xi Mo, Jiang Yeming, and the others back to the old house worried. Seeing him hesitant to speak, Xi Mo smiled and said, "Zhang Hai, don't worry about it. Don't talk to grandma when you go back. Said, lest she also be worried. Yeming and I can solve this matter, besides, there is Amon at home, and its teeth are sharp."

Zhang Hai suspiciously looked at Xi Mo and then at Jiang Yeming, who was not as strong as him. He didn't believe it anyway, "I don't believe it. I would rather believe in Hengxiu's strength than the two of you."

Zhang Hai shook his head while talking, Hengxiu's strength is not superficial, he chops ribs, chops firewood with one blow, and chops firewood with one blow, and his expression hasn't changed all morning. With such arm strength and physical strength, his strength must be Not weak.

The three half-sized wild boars were all slaughtered by Heng Xiu, and the released pig blood was also boiled to a bloody state. The wild boar stomachs were cleaned up, and Zhang Hai stood aside to help wash the wild boar intestines with hot water.The wild rabbits that weighed only a few taels were all thrown into mustard seeds by Xi Mo, and the rabbits that were full of catties were also skinned by Xi Mo, and a pot of rabbit meat was braised in soy sauce.

Amon also asked for a reward, a half-sized rabbit. When the braised rabbit meat was ready, Xi Mo dug a shovel of hot rabbit meat for it. Amon's belly was round and slumped in the wolf's den Focus on.

Xi Mo's newly cultivated Flammulina velutipes and tea tree mushrooms can be eaten, but Hericium erinaceus is too precious, so Xi Mo didn't dare to take it out.Flammulina velutipes and tea tree mushrooms have been tossing a lot in the greenhouse, and a thick piece of cloth was specially covered on the plastic foam. The enoki mushrooms grown on the snakeskin bag with spores are white and tender, and the tea tree mushrooms are also very fat and tender. .

The main course of the evening was hot pot with wild boar and radish. At the end of the banquet, there was a basket of enoki mushrooms. Both Jiang Yeming and Zhang Hai liked to eat them. Hot pot with enoki mushrooms was especially delicious.Having not eaten pork and radish hot pot for a long time, Grandma Zhang added half a bowl of rice to save face. Zhang Hai also completely disregarded the horizontally developed body shape, and took the principle of eating enough.

Xiao Yang ate four big pieces of wild boar, half a bowl of radish, and finally drank a half bowl of wild boar stomach stewed millet porridge.If grandma Zhang didn't stop her, Xiaoyang would probably be able to drink half a bowl of millet porridge. The way this child eats scared grandma Zhang. Whoever's child who is more than one year old can eat meat, and will continue to drink big Bowl of porridge.

Xi Mo sent some wild pork meat to Master Xu Yunfeng's family, and also sent some rice and greenhouse vegetables to their family. Xi Dawei's family, Xi Mo thought that there was a pregnant woman in their family, so he sent a piece of pig hind legs and a basket of cabbage and vegetables. Bai Cai, doing these things has nothing to do with filial piety, Xi Mo just wants to live a more comfortable life, and can't make her life miserable, besides, grandma doesn't seem to like their coming very much.

Many truths can be derived from the robbery, and now Zhang Hai really understands that the world is really going to be chaotic.

☆、Chapter 57

The continuous torrential rain was followed by sudden cold air, and then the never-ending blizzard. Zhang Hai didn't know how long he hadn't seen the sun.

In Zhang Hai's eyes, there are secrets everywhere in Xi Mo's house, the constant temperature in the vegetable shed, the constant temperature in the house, the lively appearance of chickens, ducks and sheep, everything makes Zhang Hai feel that these things are not as simple as they appear on the surface. He also believed in one thing, that is, Xi Mo really saved him.

This year's spring came very late, and it was still snowing intermittently in mid-March, and the temperature remained at a few degrees below zero. It seemed that the whole world was still in severe winter, but this situation was much better than minus [-] degrees. Well, at least the sun is out.

The power supply has been restored in Jinhua Village. It is said that the shops in the town have started to open, and people in the village have been going out to buy daily necessities and eat.

Even if the entire team was fat, they all lost weight after being tormented by this accident. They were all skinny, but they were not much better.As soon as the town opened for business, the business was naturally very good.Of course, there were several looting incidents, and they all ended up in the Public Security Bureau.

Every day from the rice factory in the town, people come to the village to buy rice, and the rice has grown to a sky-high price of more than ten yuan a catty.There are also some far-sighted people in the town to buy cotton, and the price of cotton has been raised to 60 yuan per catty, regardless of whether it is good or bad.

Only a very small number of people in the village sold rice and cotton, and most people seemed to have a subconscious sense of crisis after the severe winter. They kept food in their houses so that their families and themselves would not be hungry.

Xi Mo specifically mentioned something to his master Xu Yunfeng, it is best not to sell food, it is someone else's business whether others listen or not, but Xi Mo said what should be said.

Xi Dawei's family sold 20 catties of grain and [-] catties of cotton, and immediately earned nearly [-] yuan. People like Wang Laidi who never smile put on a smiley face, as if they won a million dollars. General awards.

Grandma Zhang's 500 yuan was also sent over. As for the hundreds of catties of rice, it was said that the family had sold them all and there was no more rice left. When the early rice came ashore this year, I would call new rice to Grandma Zhang. What can 500 yuan be used for at this time? Even if you go out to buy rice, you can buy dozens of catties. The edible salt in the town has risen to 15 yuan a pack. Pork and other meat are even more expensive. , Meat can only be exchanged for rice, what can 500 yuan do.

Grandma Zhang has a good temper, so she silently accepted the money. After all, it can still be spent as money, don't want it for nothing.Regarding Xi Dawei's family's behavior of selling grain and cotton, Xi Mo was noncommittal, Jiang Yeming was happy to die alone, now he doesn't need to do it now, there are still some people who can't live by themselves.

Xi Mo used a few sweet potatoes to grow seedlings in the mustard seeds, and the cut sweet potato vines were all taken to the greenhouse by Xi Mo.Zhang Hai was most puzzled by Xi Mo's mysterious behavior. Don't sweet potatoes usually be planted until spring and summer, when the wheat is harvested?

The sweet potato vines in the greenhouse are growing luxuriantly, and there is a large area of ​​greenery. Xi Mo estimates that if the three acres of dry land in the family's nine acres of land are all used to grow sweet potatoes, it is estimated that six to seven thousand catties will be harvested when it is harvested. This thing will not be too eye-catching at home.

Zhang Hai's incomprehension is that Xi Mo completely ignores it. This year's scorching heat will come very quickly, and the high temperature of [-] or [-] degrees can dry people out.Thinking of the high temperature in the near future, Xi Mo also thought about taking people to the mountain to cut some firewood when people can still move these days, and then drag them all down the mountain and put them in the peach forest behind, waiting for the next severe winter.

Jiang Yeming was very interested in the matter of chopping firewood. He sharpened his woodcutter knife to incomparable sharpness, and gestured a few times at Zhang Hai who was shy. Zhang Hai dared not speak out.

"At the end of the day, are we going to chop the west mountain first? The west mountain is much more fun. There are wild pheasants, wild boars, and wild rabbits there." Jiang Yeming is very concerned about food.

"Let's go to Xishan to have a look first. There were a lot of cuts before, so we went to Xiao'an Mountain. Those trees also need a buffer period." After Xi Mo said, he rolled up a large roll of nylon rope and carried a pole in his hand. Very simple.

"Xi Mo, are you sure I'm going too?" Zhang Hai felt that the day was still quite cold, and it hadn't even thawed yet.

"Well, if you can't chop firewood, you'll just carry firewood home. You can carry fifty catties at a time, right?" Xi Mo said succinctly.

Hengxiu, who seldom goes out, has come out, which shows that Xi Mo's things are put to good use.Zhang Hai pinched the circle of flesh on his stomach, and gritted his teeth: "Just go, I'll treat it as a weight loss."

Jiang Yeming rushed to Zhang Hai's side and hooked his shoulders, "That's right, life lies in non-stop movement. If your body continues to develop like this, you won't even be looking for a man in the future, maybe you won't even be able to see a woman." It's you."

Zhang Hai fiddled with Jiang Yeming, who was taller than him but not heavier, and said angrily, "Jiang Yeming, you little man, didn't I just gain a few pounds of flesh? Why can't I find it?" A man? Why do other women look down on me? If you can't find me, I will rely on Xi Mo not to leave, thanks to your crow's mouth."

"Hey, Zhang Hai, Brother Zhang, Brother Hai, don't, my Ximo people are already so good, you can't cheat him. Don't you have ready-made ones by your side? Hengxiu is so good, don't think about Ximo, he It's mine, it's mine alone, don't even think about it." After Jiang Yeming finished speaking, he ran to Xi Mo's side, clasped Xi Mo's arm tightly with his gloved hands, staring at him with speechless eyes. Zhang Hai who blocked him.

Hengxiu is purely the fish that caught fire at the city gate and hit the fish in the pond.Zhang Hai glanced at Heng Xiu sideways, and in his mind, Heng Xiu's eyebrows were not wrinkled when he was chopping ribs. A son who is as obedient as Xiaoyang, the man is still exempt.

Zhang Hai bared his teeth, "I don't care who he is, I must marry a gentle, virtuous and fertile wife this year!"

Four big men went up the mountain to chop firewood, the effect was not so good, and the efficiency was not so high.

On the second day after Xi Mo and the others set up their swords on the mountain, people in the villages in the team also followed Xi Mo's family to go up the mountain to cut firewood.Grandma Zhang has a mountain in Xiao'an Mountain, which is estimated to be more than 30 mu in total. This mountain is all owned by Grandma Zhang and Mr. Xi. The village is remote and the transfer is slow. The policy update is not as immediate as the book says. These mountains are up to now Still not separated out, it belongs to Grandma Zhang alone.

Wang Laidi had long set her sights on the lush greenery of Xiao'an Mountain, and she yelled at Li Simei from Xi Dafeng's family to go to Xiao'an Mountain to cut firewood. She was even more anxious when she saw the people at the end of Xi dragging piles of firewood home all day long. , that look and posture is like Xi Mo and the others chopped firewood for her house.

Li Simei is not like Wang Laidi. She still has a bit of a clue in her heart. The mountain belongs to the old lady. Besides, the two brothers of Lao Xi's family each have more than 20 acres of mountain. There is no need to go to Xiao'an Mountain, which is greedy for the elderly. For her own plan, she was thinking about living in the old house.

Wang Laidi didn't persuade Li Simei, and ran home shaking her chubby body, crying and howling to Xi Dawei: "Why is your mother so partial, and Xiao Anshan is not alone, your old man is too." Besides, she shouldn't take the initiative to make the decision, this mountain belongs to Xi Mo alone. Look at the people who live in his family. Could it be that the old man would rather raise a group of outsiders than Don't you want to see our own family? Oh, oh, you useless person, why am I just like you, a useless person like you!"

When Xi Dawei saw Wang Laidi's mischief because of that little mountain, he was embarrassed. Seeing his daughter-in-law Xiaoqing standing aside with a big belly and a cold face, Xi Dawei smiled at her with the corners of his mouth pulled.Xi Baogen glanced at Xi Dawei out of the corner of his eyes, but didn't say anything about what Wang Laidi did, and helped Zhong Xiaoqing upstairs.

"Don't be like this, my wife is watching? You are not afraid of losing your identity. Those mountains are originally owned by the old man, and how she distributes them is her business. If we get all the firewood from the mountains at home, we will have enough to burn Five or six years, why are you still thinking about those mountains?" Xi Dawei rarely saw the essence clearly and told the truth.

"You wolf-hearted thing, are you saying that I am greedy? For whom am I not for your family? The child in Baogen's wife's womb is about to be born, and the family is going to have more people. The child is delicate. We How do you know what the winter will be like this year? A person like you is useless to me. I don’t care, I’ll go to Xiao’an Mountain to cut firewood later, and you go tell the old man.” Wang Laidi Said that while twisting Xi Dawei's body several times, the way he gritted his teeth was a bit disgusting.

Under the struggle of the few people at the end of the banquet, Xiao Anshan had already cleaned up most of the work in three or four days. Jiang Yeming's speed at chopping firewood was not ordinary fast, Zhang Hai was dazzled by the sight, and his tireless appearance made him drag firewood Zhang Hai, who was dragged out of breath, felt ashamed.

Amon has been patrolling the mountain for the past few days, and when he found the target wild boar, he was very excited to report to Xi Mo.Wang Laidi went to Xiao'an Mountain to cut firewood, and as soon as she raised the knife, Amon bared her teeth and ran in front of her. Wang Laidi's legs and feet were weak from the frightened look, and she howled like a ghost and swung the knife to drive Amon away, trying to tell if the dog was not a dog. Wolves are not wolves that drive away ghost things.Xi Mo used his spiritual sense to detect the scene hundreds of meters away. He was in a good mood, and the knife in his hand didn't stop for a moment. Jiang Yeming, who was on the side, also grinned, smiling very happily.

"Dead beast, get out, oh dead beast!" Perhaps because Wang Laidi was too nervous, the boss came and went with just a few words, but this beast just refused to leave.

☆、Chapter 58

Xi Mo carried more than 200 catties of wet firewood on his shoulders, and the others also carried firewood. When they went down the mountain, they went around to Wang Laidi's place.

"Ah, son of a bitch, why don't you hurry up and call your beast away, or I'll chop off its head with one knife." When Wang Laidi saw Xi Mo appearing, her timid expression in her eyes turned into arrogance.

"Auntie, why are you on the mountain of Grandma Zhang's house? You still want to chop off Amon's head? Amon is usually the most obedient. Grandma Zhang let him watch the mountain, and he will do his duty. So Auntie, you don't want to chop off Amon's head?" The firewood from Grandma Zhang’s house.” Zhang Hai called “Auntie” in one mouthful, squinting and smiling with a bit of a naughty look.

When Wang Laidi was told by the younger generation like this, the anger in her heart grew stronger, and the knife in her hand also pointed at the void and added, "I'm looking at the firewood from our old Xi's house, what are you talking about as an outsider, Little Yazi has never been taught by his parents since he was a child, so he doesn't know the rules!"

These words hit Zhang Hai's vital point. He hates others to talk about his parents who died young. People who say such things are irresponsible. Zhang Hai's hippie smile turned into cloudy clouds almost instantly.

Jiang Yeming was very sensitive to the change in Zhang Hai's mood, and patted his shoulder with his hand, hey, we really don't need to be serious with this kind of person, it's too disrespectful, isn't it?

Xi Mo frowned, this man didn't care much about his age, he took himself too seriously, "This is Xiao'an Mountain, Grandma Zhang's mountain, and Lao Xi's mountain. In your words, Lao Xi's I can cut down any mountain, so can I also go to your mountain to chop firewood, anyway, yours is also Lao Xi’s, so there is no need to distinguish between each other, right?"

People in the country like to watch other people's homes being lively, and at this time a few people watching the excitement came, and everyone whispered in secret.

When Wang Laidi heard Xi Mo say this, she was afraid that Xi Mo would really go to her mountain to chop firewood, so she immediately lay down on the ground, "You short-lived ghost, you want our whole family to be frozen." Is it better to die of starvation? You are devoid of conscience, you are not filial to me and your father, and now you have to come to the family mountain with outsiders to cut firewood, ouch, how did I raise such a wolf-hearted thing like you. "

It was nothing more than a fight, Jiang Yeming was so angry that he was about to die, and Heng Xiu was surprised that such a person existed in the world.

Xu Yunfeng pushed aside the crowd watching, and saw that the person sitting on the ground was Wang Laidi. Anyone with a discerning eye would know what was going on. Besides, Wang Laidi didn't have a good reputation in Jinhua Village, so everyone just took a look. lively.

"Dawei's family, what are you doing? The juniors are still talking immaturely. Why are you chewing so hard that you can't get up? Are you trying to let the villagers watch the fun?" Xu Yunfeng understood Xi Mo's child Yes, he likes this apprentice, he is gentle and kind, easy to get along with, serious in doing things, and respectful to his elders.The most important thing is that Xi Mo is a child who knows how to repay kindness. If Xu Yunfeng and his family hadn't had Xi Mo's advice and help last year, it would have been really difficult to survive the severe cold.

Xi Mo nodded to Xu Yunfeng, and called Master Xu, Jiang Yeming and the others followed Xi Mo, and Xu Yunfeng responded happily.

Wang Laidi saw that it was thankless for her to go down again, and it was very boring. There was still unmelted snow on the ground, which was icy cold, so she simply stood up numbly, and gestured at Amon a few times with a knife.

When Wang Laidi was about to go down the mountain, she said to Xi Mo threateningly: "If you dare to go to my mountain to chop a piece of firewood, you short-lived ghost, I will set fire to your yard."

Xi Mo smiled at Wang Laidi's words: "Don't worry, as long as you don't come to Xiao'an Mountain again, I will definitely not go to your mountain. Also, I advise you, this season is the season when wild animals come and go, and you will be hungry for a while." It’s winter, and the wild boars I slaughtered all screamed and their eyes glowed green when they saw people. If you go up the mountain alone at night, you won’t be as talkative as my Amon when you encounter something.”

After Xi Mo's words, everyone laughed, and Wang Laidi's chubby body bumped a bit on the way down the mountain, and she almost jumped down.Until the end of the banquet, they finished cutting down Xiao'an Mountain, and they didn't see Wang Laidi come again.

The peach grove behind was already full of firewood, and Zhang Hai felt a sense of accomplishment about it, and he would sigh at the firewood if he had nothing to do. He was also a laborer.

Grandma Zhang was still angry about this incident, she stood outside Xi Dawei's yard with a walking stick, and scolded Wang Laidi for a long time. She hadn't scolded anyone like this for decades.

In March and April, many institutions in the country did not resume operation, and there were only one or two TV stations, which were still CCTV, and schools basically did not start classes.

Xi Baochun and Xi Baoqiu did not know when they started to walk around the old house, and they often brought some vegetables and pickles from home to the old man.Even Xi Mo understands this soft policy, let alone Grandma Zhang who has lived for more than [-] years.

Grandma Zhang's attitude has always been lukewarm. Every time the two juniors brought something, Grandma Zhang finally asked them to take it back intact, and even asked them to bring some game back from time to time. What's the matter at home now? Nothing is missing, Grandma Zhang knows that Xi Mo doesn't miss other people's things, she is afraid that others will miss his things.

Li Simei was very angry at the old man for not showing face. They are both grandsons of the Xi family, so how could they be treated so differently?Every time Li Simei wanted to talk to Grandma Zhang, she was stopped by Xi Dafeng. With Wang Laidi's example first, this matter really shouldn't make a fuss, and when it got agitated, Lao Xi's family became a joke of the whole village.

The temperature rose suddenly, rising from a few degrees below zero to around [-] degrees at once. The news on the TV station did not give a reasonable explanation for this weird change.

Zhang Hai looked at the heavy down jacket and cotton sweater he had just taken off, and glanced at the bare branches outside the window, thinking about the current temperature and what kind of wind is blowing in this season.

Xi Mo took Hengxiu to reclaim all three acres of dry land, and pruned the sweet potato vines, and small pieces were inserted into the ridges of the dry land by Xi Mo. Xi Mo and Xu Yunfeng's family, of course, Xu Yunfeng's family was suggested by Xi Mo.

There are also a few families following the trend, and there are many people who disdain it. The sweet potatoes are usually fed to wild boars. Now the wild boars are even more rampant. Whether the sweet potatoes planted can be harvested is still a problem.

Grain collection is familiar and unfamiliar to farmers who have not paid agricultural taxes for many years. Everyone seems to have forgotten that era, but these troops in military uniforms, equipped with guns, and driving army green cards tell everyone that this is not the case. In the past, it was so simple to pay taxes, but this was mandatory and there was no reason to talk about it.

Among the colorful soldiers, Xi Mo saw Xiong Tao at a glance, even though he was also wearing a military uniform, it seemed a bit inconsistent no matter how he looked at it.Seeing Xiong Tao's smooth and smiling face in the crowd, Xi Mo was stunned for a moment. This scene with a strong sense of imagery directly led Xi Mo to trace back to the previous life.

Jiang Yeming's dislike for Xiong Tao was undisguised. This man is really lingering. No matter how many people die everywhere, let him die. Let him die cleanly.

It seems that Xiong Tao's glasses have been changed, and he looks quite high-end. The military uniform that doesn't fit him is tightly worn on him, and there is a gun at his waist. Although the gun is in a leather case, Xi Mo knows it is a gun.

Jiang Yeming would be impulsive, and Xi Mo could have predicted it without thinking. Perhaps they could deal with a Xiong Tao, but now they are a team, and there is even some kind of authority behind them. This is not something that can be resolved on impulse.Xiong Tao saw Xi Mo standing in the crowd from a distance, compared to the dazed or angry expressions of the others, Xi Mo's expression was calm and calm, as if he had predicted the end of the matter.

"Xi Mo, long time no see." Xiong Tao raised his head sideways and greeted Xi Mo, he was much shorter than Xi Mo now.

Xi Mo glanced down at Xiong Tao's waistband, and replied with a natural expression: "Well, long time no see."

Zhang Hai had already received Xi Mo's order, and held onto Jiang Yeming tightly so as not to cause trouble at this juncture.

"Do you smoke?" Xiong Tao held a cigarette in his mouth, and handed a cigarette to Xi Mo.

As soon as Xi Mo smelled the smoke, he knew it was Zhongnanhai. Xiong Tao's favorite brand in his previous life, Xi Mo hated its smell and raised his lips: "No, I don't like this stuff, and Ye Ming doesn't like me smoking. There are also old people and children. Are you here on business? Not bad!"

When Xiong Tao heard Xi Mo mentioning Jiang Yeming and the child, Xiong Tao frowned, put the cigarette back into the cigarette case, and blew a smoke ring to answer the question: "Hehe, are you still with Jiang Yeming? Are you still at home?" Got a baby? Whose?"

At the end of the ceremony, he held his breath and waited until the smoke circle cleared before returning: "Yeming and I have been together. The child is my brother's child. He is blind and has a congenital heart disease. He is staying at my house. What about you? Are you still here?" With Qin Min?"

Xiong Tao raised his eyebrows when he heard the words, and his originally handsome face looked a little playful at the moment. He may have misunderstood the meaning, but it is really hard for people not to doubt his motives and purposes when Xi Mo asks this way.

Jiang Yeming, who was not far away, had his nose crooked with anger, a dead end, did he need to speak so awkwardly and ambiguously, did he still have the quality and self-consciousness he should have.

At the end of the meeting, he realized that Jiang Yeming's mood swings had affected him. Seeing Xiong Tao's familiar eyes, Xi Mo had goosebumps all over his body, and then he started the topic: "What standards are you using to collect food this time? ?”

Xiong Tao threw away the cigarette butt in his hand, and touched his waist habitually. He didn't care about Xi Mo's incoherence, and the official answer: "This time the order from above is two hundred catties of rice per mu. According to the land reform Based on the previous land standards.”

Seeing Xiong Tao's habitual movements at the end of Xiong, he was a little stunned, it really looked like the actions of an executioner.

According to Xiong Tao, according to the calculation before the land reform, there are only two acres of dry land in Ximo, and the four hundred catties of rice are still available in Ximo's family warehouse, which is even more than enough.

Many people in the village are dissatisfied with this method. No one is willing to hand over hundreds of thousands of catties of grain. They were reluctant to sell it before, but now they have to give it away for nothing, which is unacceptable.

Wang Laidi exaggerated her dissatisfaction and reluctance. She stopped those who were going to her house to open a warehouse to store rice, and punched and kicked them with outstretched hands. Several soldiers had their faces scratched.

Several families have also followed Wang Laidi's example. Who doesn't cherish the food in the family, and this year's weather is so strange, who knows if there will be a good harvest this year.

Those young soldiers were all pushed out, everyone was still shouting, the scene was a little chaotic, Xiong Tao took out the pistol in his waist, and fired a shot at the sky, with a "bang", the audience immediately fell silent, Everyone is a simple farmer, and they have never seen a real gun in their life, let alone saw someone draw a gun and shoot it with their own eyes and ears.

"Folks, the country expropriated grain this time to fill the national grain depot and the army, not what you think. Our ultimate goal is to protect everyone. We take from the people and use them from the people. We are not local tyrants. We will not take by force, so please be conscious, folks, we don't want to use force to solve it." Xiong Tao announced while standing in the crowd with a loudspeaker.

The gunshot was still a bit deterrent, at least everyone calmed down and listened to Xiong Tao's words.

"Damn, that's nice to say, I'm making myself look like a savior. I hate this kind of two-faced person who has one face to the face and another face to the back." Jiang Yeming spat violently on the ground.

"You can't say a few words less, this matter is out of our control, we just turn a blind eye and close one eye." When Xi Mo came back from handing over the food, he heard Jiang Yeming say that, and he had a headache.

"Hey, hey, Xi Mo, I just said that, why did I just say that! I just don't like his hypocritical look, it makes me want to vomit, and also, you just acted like him I saw it, bah, and she was making eye contact." Jiang Yeming continued to yell, as if he was trying to cover up a certain feeling of irritability in his heart.

Xi Mo couldn't hear Jiang Yeming's nonchalant appearance, "Yeming, it's really not what you think, others don't know about my affairs, don't you know? Also, I didn't flirt with him ,You think too much."

"It's because I think too much, it's because I think too much, I'm just a big fool who doesn't deserve to fuck, I hate you the most at the end of the day."
