Wind Shakes the Barley

Chapter 25 Lemon Soap

After Jiang Xu's family finished planing the peanuts, Jiang Xu cooked some and planned to send them to Dr. Chang.Originally, when Doctor Chang came to give his father acupuncture two days ago, he wanted to cook it, but at that time the family was busy picking up peanuts, so there was no time, and they didn't even have a word, so he wanted to go to the field again Hurry up, it has been delayed like this until the house is busy today, so he has time to cook some and take it over.

Because he went out late, he went directly to Dr. Chang's dormitory, but after knocking on the door a few times, he found that Dr. Chang didn't seem to be there, so he had to go back the same way.As soon as he entered the house, he heard the phone rang at home, and then heard Jiang Hong calling him to answer the phone.

"Come under the old bridge outside the village."

Jiang Xu hung up the phone and was still a little dazed. He didn't understand that Dr. Chang was not at home at night, so what was he doing going down the old bridge?But he went over right away, firstly he was worried that Doctor Chang would be unsafe at night, and secondly he felt that it was a bit like a secret date between the two of them.Since returning from the county that day, he felt that he could no longer control his mind.

There is an old bridge outside their village, which has been built for 80 to [-] years. Since the new road was built, fewer people have walked on the old bridge.But when we go to the field, we still get used to walking through the old bridge, which connects to the old road, and there are crop fields on both sides of the road.Under the old bridge where Chang Qi was located was originally a semi-sandy land. Later, people planted more land, and some of the land there could gradually grow some food.

When Jiang Xu got there, he saw Dr. Chang wearing a hat standing under the bridge waiting for him.He ran over quickly, and before he could say anything, Doctor Chang dragged him towards the field, and then the two of them entered a corn field.His heart was pounding, and he didn't know what Dr. Chang meant.In the past, there have been many cases of murder and arson in cornfields on dark and windy nights on TV. He couldn't help but shudder thinking of this.

Doctor Chang stopped and looked back at him, raised his hand, took off his coat and put it on him, and then continued to move forward.Jiang Xu touched his coat, and couldn't help but settle down, feeling that his thoughts just now were really funny.

Jiang Xu followed Dr. Chang to the center of the cornfield before stopping.

"I'll give you a gift."

After Chang Qishen finished speaking mysteriously, she took a step to the side.

"Well!"

Jiang Xu covered his mouth and took a step back. When he looked up, he met Dr. Chang's smiling eyes. He opened his eyes in disbelief. Did Dr. Chang kidnap someone?

The gift Dr. Chang was talking about was obviously the man in front of him lying on the ground with his hands and feet bound with thick hemp ropes, his mouth stuffed with rags, and his eyes covered with a rag, and this man seemed to have passed out.

"He should be the one who stole your peanuts." Chang Qi said slowly.

I heard Jiang Xu say that his family grows early peanuts, which ripen relatively early, and it will take a few days for other nearby peanuts to be harvested. With this time difference, Chang Qi called his cousin and asked him to My cousin bought a few miniature cameras and sent them over.

He had inquired that apart from Jiang Xu's house, several other houses had their peanuts and corn stolen, and the lands of the stolen houses were not far from the road.Jiang Xu's peanut field is next to the road, but because there is a mature corn field in front of it, blocked by tall corn stalks, even if someone steals peanuts, it is difficult to see from outside.So he picked a few places that he thought would be visited by thieves, inserted a few wooden poles around them, and hung rags on them, pretending to be used to drive away birds, but in fact he secretly installed cameras on them.

Knowing that the thief must come at night, Chang Qi has been watching the things in the cameras on the computer every day after get off work these days. There has been no movement in the past few days. He was worried that the plan would fail, but he finally caught him today. , so I specially asked Jiang Xu to come out to make the children happy.

Hearing that Dr. Chang had gone to such great lengths to avenge him, Jiang Xu couldn't help being moved.The theft of crops in the countryside basically happens every year, but except for some valuable crops, such as watermelon, people rarely go to the field to look at the rest of the crops at night.

Like before, he was looking at the beans in the field, but because the beans needed to be picked in the middle of the night, and there was a shack in the field, he slept there at night.But the peanut field is in another place, so there is no way to see it and there is no need to look at it.And many people are actually psychologically prepared to be stolen, because there is no way to avoid it and they can only accept their fate.After all, I have never heard of any family buying a camera to prevent thieves.

"Actually, stealing is stealing. There is no need to spend money on these things. It's too wasteful." Jiang Xu guessed that the stolen peanuts couldn't even afford a camera. It was a huge loss. He felt pain when he thought of the money spent. , even looking at Doctor Chang with some resentment in his eyes, "I'm still a high-achieving student, I won't settle this account."

"What are you talking about!" Chang Qi flicked his finger on his head unceremoniously, "Little thing with no conscience, I still hate this and that for you to stand out."

"No..." Jiang Xu lacked confidence, but he still rubbed his head and said, "Doctor Chang, you must not spend money recklessly in the future, it is really unnecessary."

"Stop talking nonsense, hurry up." Chang Qi raised his knee and bumped Jiang Xu's back, Jiang Xu staggered a few steps and stopped right in front of the thief.He turned his head blankly and asked, "What's the hurry?"

"Beat me." Chang Qi took it for granted, "I'll call the police when you're done venting your anger, and then ask him to pay for the peanut."

Jiang Xu scratched his head. He has never reported to the police at such a young age, and he is not very clear about this set of procedures: "If you have already caught someone, it seems wrong for me to do it again?"

"What's wrong, whoever catches a thief doesn't beat him up first, won't he catch him?" Chang Qi tried to persuade, "Don't worry, I'll tell the police about the rest."

Jiang Xu thought about it, and felt that this was the reason. He was already angry with the person who stole his peanuts. When he knew that this person had wasted Dr. Chang's large sum of money, he hated him to death. No mercy, basically attack wherever it hurts.

When he was halfway through the fight, he suddenly remembered that Dr. Chang was still watching, and immediately regretted that he had shot too violently just now. He wondered if Dr. Chang was scared by him. When he saw Dr. Chang's encouraging eyes, he unconsciously With a smile, he kicked the man a few more times before stopping.

The man woke up from the pain long ago, but he didn't yell out because his mouth was gagged. Not long after Jiang Xu stopped, the police arrived.

"Is it Dr. Chang?" The policeman is from the town. He has heard of Dr. Chang as early as when he healed the eyes of the elder sister in the neighboring village. In the past few days, he has heard people mention "little miracle doctor" frequently, so he immediately saw him. He recognized it.

"It's me." Chang Qi replied, but he didn't expect the two police officers to know him. He told the police officers about the matter, and the man was taken directly into the police car, and the electric tricycle driven by the man was also taken by the police. He left, and before he left, he told Jiang Xu that he would be notified to collect the compensation when the compensation came.

Jiang Xu: "Is this resolved?"

"Otherwise?" Chang Qi put his hands in his trouser pockets, his tone was loose, as if he felt that what happened just now was not worth mentioning.

Jiang Xu tilted his head and looked at the pitch-black distance. After a while, he carefully shifted his gaze back to the perfect profile face soaked in moonlight, and said softly, "Thank you."

As soon as he finished speaking, his head was rubbed indiscriminately, and Jiang Xu couldn't help giggling.The two walked back slowly against the moonlight, he closed his coat, and a smell of lemon soap wafted into his nostrils, sour and sweet, just like the smell of his crush on Dr. Chang.
