After breakfast, Chu Qing put the basket on her back again. Xiaobao was sitting in the basket. She picked up the hatchet and prepared to go out.

I met Mr. Xie’s old wife carrying vegetables and meat into the hospital.

"Good morning, aunt!" Chu Qing greeted.

"Oh, what are you going to do?" Aunt Xie looked at Chu Qing's "equipment."

"There isn't much firewood in the kitchen. I'll go up the mountain and chop some."

"How can you chop wood with a child? And then throw the child! Just go and tell the village chief and he will send someone to deliver it."

"Hey, thank you, aunt." Chu Qing put the hatchet back, "Then I'll go to the village chief's house."

"Go, go, watch the kids."

Chu Qing met Village Chief Wu and Wu Dalang at the village chief's house and told them that they needed firewood.

Wu Dalang said directly that if he needed firewood in the future, just send someone to tell him and he would deliver it himself.

Thinking of the task he took on last night, Chu Qing felt that this was better. He asked the village chief where he could buy some daily necessities and learned that the village was a bit far from the county seat. Walking on two legs would take a lot of time.

long time.

But the head of Li Village has a grocery store in his home, and he can buy some ready-made needles, threads, and other things. It is said that the son-in-law of Village Chief Li has a grocery store in the county town, and the unsalable goods are sold in the village at a discount. In this way, both

It can preserve capital and provide convenience to the villagers.

After finding out the location, Chu Qing was ready to go take a look.

As soon as I arrived at the gate, I saw a fat woman standing there. When Chu Qing came over, she refused to get out of the way. She blocked the gate of the village chief's house and looked at Chu Qing up and down unscrupulously. Her eyes were like a scanner.

Just as Chu Qing was about to ask her to give way, he heard the other party say: "Is this blatantly blocking someone's door to hook up?"

Chu Qing didn't react, but Chu Qing didn't like the other person, so he planned to squeeze past her.

This is always the case between people. Some people feel friendly at first glance and want to get closer; some people feel that they are strangers at first glance and try to stay away. The woman in front of me belongs to the latter.

Unexpectedly, the woman grabbed Chu Qing's arm: "What about you, where are you going?"

Oh my gosh! Another Sheniu? Didn’t women in ancient times have a low status? How could they be so arrogant?

"Move away!" Chu Qing said, throwing away the woman's hand.

"Oh, hehe, look, look, you feel guilty, don't you? You go to someone's door and block them to hook up with them. Do you want to show your face?" It's as if you have really caught someone, and you feel so proud.

Chu Qing took a step back, imitating the woman's behavior just now and scanning her from head to toe.

The woman put her hands on her waist and took a step forward. Her fat body just blocked the door tightly, and she said arrogantly: "What are you looking at!"

Chu Qing pursed her lips and suppressed the classic line "What are you looking at?" She didn't dare to speak for fear of laughing. Then she said again: "Shenyuan!"

This time the sound was louder. I heard footsteps coming from behind. Behind the fat woman, there were also villagers slowly approaching curiously.

"What do you mean, you block people's doors early in the morning and beat them repeatedly?" The fat woman was confident.

"Who is it?" Chu Qing asked in surprise.

"You!"

"What's going on?"

"Blocking the door early in the morning to hook up with someone!"

"Who is it?"

"you!"

"What's going on?"

"You're blocking the door to hook up with someone!"

"Who is it?"

"Say you blocked the door..."

Before he finished speaking, he heard a loud shout: "Three Fatty's family! Why are you blocking the door of my house?!"

The village chief's sonorous voice suddenly burst out, causing the fat woman to blurt out the rest of her words before she could close her mouth: "... seducing people."

"Hahahahaha..." A burst of laughter sounded from behind the woman.

The onlookers were so happy that some of them choked and coughed because of their own laughter.

The fat woman blushed instantly, her neck became thick, and she became angry with embarrassment:

"Why are you laughing? Haven't you seen this widow woman blocking someone's door early in the morning, specifically to seduce Wu Dalang?"

Oops, this is all about naming.

Chu Qing remained silent and looked at her leisurely.

"Three Fatty's family, is that mouth of yours made of farts?" Village Chief Wu was very angry. Isn't this pouring dirty water on his family? He's been messing around here, and he needs to be cleaned up!

"Well, am I wrong? She, a widow, came early in the morning and blocked the door..." The fat woman saw that the village chief was really angry, and her liver trembled a little, but she didn't want to lose face, so she continued to caress.

.

"Who is blocking the door now?" the village chief asked.

"I'm not...no, I mean she is a widow..." The fat woman still wanted to defend.

"Three fat guys are back?" the village chief asked.

"No." The fat woman was puzzled.

"Then she's a widow, what are you?" the village chief asked the fat woman, pointing at Chu Qing.

"My, my man is not dead!" the fat woman said confidently.

"Then her man is dead? Did you kill him? Are you different from her now?" the village chief asked three times.

"..." The fat woman was speechless.

Chu Qing likes it like this. He doesn't think it's troublesome if he can eat melons.

"Doesn't that mean that her man has met a gangster? How can he still live?" The fat woman still refused to accept it.

"Will your man survive when he encounters an enemy?" the village chief spat back!

"Day by day, I won't be able to eat without causing trouble!" Is the village chief defining the fat woman?

Although Chu Qing was very happy that the fat woman was scolded and laughed at, and he was not angry at being scolded by her, Chu Qing wondered why this woman was looking for trouble with him? He had never seen her, let alone offended her.

Bar.

At this time, a woman's voice came from the crowd: "What San Fatty's family said is not wrong. Even if I didn't see her hooking up with others, it's not a good thing to cause trouble just after arriving in our village.

"

Oh, it seems that Chu Qing has been clarified.

"Tell me, what trouble did I get into?" Chu Qing began the interview.

"You..." The woman who just spoke had a long and thin face, with a fairly upright appearance, but her cheekbones were a little high and swollen. She felt a little guilty when she saw Chu Qing's keen eyes staring at her in the crowd.

"You were in charge of everything when you first came to the village. You are right. You are just a cook, and you don't let your children receive food. You don't feel bad for your children who are hungry, right?"

"Which meal did they not receive?" Chu Qing asked knowingly.

"They, no, I mean, they asked you to drive them out after their children had entered the kitchen, and they asked you to wait after they were kicked out. Why, they didn't listen to you and didn't give them food? We all paid for it.

of!"

This remark aroused the echoes of several onlookers.

People think that children should not be kicked out when they are growing and they cannot bear the hunger. Now that the children are here, they should be fed immediately.

Chu Qing recalled what happened that day. The person who was kicked out that day was a little fat man of eight or nine years old, the son of the village head Zhang’s family.

"Are you the son of Village Chief Zhang?" Chu Qing asked.

"I'm his aunt, and he's my nephew, what's going on?" Mentioning the head of Zhang Village, this long face with high cheekbones felt justified.

Village Chief Zhang is the brother of the three fat men, and the high cheekbones are just the cousin of Village Chief Zhang. But the cousin is also an aunt, so she is talking to the three fat men.

"Not good. The village chiefs of the three villages didn't have any objections to what happened that day. Do you have any objections?" Humph, Chu Qing began to find it troublesome again.

"I, our baby ate your rice? You are nosy! My baby didn't even have enough to eat." Gao Zhigu said.

"That's right!" The fat woman cheered up, "Usually our children can have enough to eat, but when you come here, you won't have enough to eat. Tell me, did you put all the money and food into your own pocket?"

Is this reasonable? Chu Qing is a little irritable. She is not good at quarreling, especially with someone who lives by quarreling.

"Each person has 6 kilograms of rice per month. The average meal is 3/2 ounces of rice. How big is a bowl of rice when 3/2 halves are cooked? How much rice does your whole family eat in one meal? Usually your children can eat enough. After I come, they will

If they don’t have enough to eat, how much do they usually eat? Whose child has taken advantage of the rice that exceeds 3 and a half? How long has it been taking? And what about the vegetables, how much more have been taken?” Chu Qing asked questions in a flurry,

No interruptions allowed.

"I won't settle the accounts with you publicly so that the people in the village will not have any resentment against each other. But if you use this matter to throw dirty water on me, then you have to settle the accounts with me. Tell me, how much do your children usually eat?

?The three village chiefs and Mr. Xie unanimously set the rules. If you have any objections, why don’t you talk to the village chief?”

The crowd fell silent, and soon someone whispered again: "My child usually only gets half a bowl of rice, so it would be nice to have 2 vegetable leaves." "My family is the same, we often get vegetable soup to make some rice crackers.

Let’s eat.” “My family is the same...”

Chu Qing curled her lips, she really didn't know how to deal with this kind of thing!

"Are you all busy? You've finished all the work in the fields, right?" the village chief shouted at this time. The crowd dispersed in a hurry, and the fat woman and the high-cheekbones left angrily. Before leaving, they threatened: "You give me

Wait!"

"Louder, what did you say?" Chu Qing raised her voice.
