"Yes, Brother Liu, it has been okay for so many years. The little devils have all run away. Who have you offended during this time?" Shen Wufu changed the subject.
"I don't know, even if I ask for money, if I can still come up with a hundred and eighty yuan, I will lose money and avoid disaster. This freshman in junior high school is not willing to see blood.
They want one hundred taels of gold and five hundred taels of silver. Where can I find them? Even if I sell my family, old and young, I still won’t get 10% of what they want.
This doesn’t mean that we can only do it if we can’t go together.
How did you know? Without you, our family would have confessed today."
"Several young men from the village came over to the town to play. They said they heard that there was a large group of bandits on the road. Bandits came to our village the year before last. Several children went back and told me.
We also arranged for someone to be on duty on this New Year's Eve. The Xiaofeng family drove out to town and found the bandits when they had nothing to do. Shouldn't they go home and call for help?"
"Oh, thanks to you, otherwise no one in my family, old or young, would be able to survive."
Of course the jeep was going faster, and they entered the village after saying that.
"sister in law?"
"It's okay. They'll be back soon."
The car came directly to Shen Wufu's house, "Uncle Wu, I'll go and drive the car back."
"Well, let your sister-in-law keep you company."
"No, it'll be quick."
Chen Miao left, and Shen Wufu invited Landlord Liu to come into the house.
Xiuyue was also frightened. She breathed a sigh of relief when the man came in and found nothing, and hurried out to boil water.
"Lao Wu, this Xiaofeng family is really capable."
Shen Wufu didn't want to tell anyone about Chen Miao, even Landlord Liu didn't want to, for fear of doing Chen Miao a disservice.
"Well, she is not as timid as any kid in the village."
"I took a closer look just now, and she left with her parents. Her mother..." Landlord Liu stopped talking.
Shen Wufu was even more incapable of saying anything.
After drinking hot water, the two of them strolled to the wheat field.
After Chen Miao returned home, she went into the space to take a shower, but she didn't feel very clean. She was really tired after working hard all night, so she filled the coals again, put sweet potatoes and yams in the pot and went to sleep.
What exactly happened has nothing to do with me, but I can collect the good stuff from the bandits and Ergouzi.
Here in the wheat field, the big guys threw down all the bandits. Half of them were dead, and the rest were injured. The bloodshed along the way was enough for them.
Several fires were lit and the bandits could be clearly seen.
When you interrogate them, it's all you need to be ruthless. There's nothing different about it. If you're hurt or scared, you can say whatever you want.
It was already past eight o'clock when Chen Miao got up. After washing and eating wontons with satisfaction, she opened the door.
"Did you go with Xiaofeng's family to fight bandits at night?" Liu Qingshi's family asked.
"Yes, I went with you. My third uncle also went, right?"
"Well, I just came back to eat and lay down, and I said that the bandits and Ergouzi didn't stay."
Chen Miaoxin said that they were quite ruthless, but it would not work if they were not ruthless. Letting one go would cause endless trouble in the future. How could they lose their lives if they had no intention of harming others?
Chen Miao didn't ask anything else. His father also went there yesterday and went to have a look today.
Chen Dongsheng looked at his daughter and said, "It's okay, she's not hurt. I was the one who shot her."
"That's fine."
Knowing his daughter's temperament, he would not inquire about such things. He was not a gossiper either, so the two of them discussed what to eat for lunch today.
This is the first day of the Chinese New Year, the first day of the new year. A good start means a good omen for this year.
The children all came over to pay New Year greetings. Liang Caixia caught fried soybeans for them, dried sweet potatoes, and dried persimmons.
If they are pregnant and still a woman, they will not go to New Year greetings this year.
When Chen Dongsheng wants to go, all the elders in the village have to go around.
When we get back, we will discuss what to cook.
"We'll still eat rice today. What pancakes do the first graders think about? We'll talk about it after the fifth grade." Liang Caixia couldn't stand listening anymore. The two men were talking about something with both nose and eyes.
Maolin came again before cooking. Liang Caixia glanced at her grandson and said, "Go back to your house for dinner."
"Nai, your food is good."
"That's right. Let your mother buy the meat your eldest aunt and third aunt gave you."
The half-grown boy knew everything, so he went home even though he was unhappy.
Lunch was Chen Miao stir-fry, which was quite satisfying for three bites.
Just after finishing the meal, Zhao Xiaoyun came in and said, "You are from Xiaofeng's family. My father-in-law is looking for you."
"What's going on?"
"I don't know either, let you go now."
When we arrived at Shen's house, they hadn't eaten yet. Landlord Liu sat on the kang and looked at Chen Miao with a smile.
"What a beautiful girl."
Chen Miao just smiled and then looked at Shen Wufu, "Uncle Wu, what do you want from me?"
"Have you eaten? Eat at home."
"I ate at my mother's house."
"Well, that won't delay your sleep. Yesterday it was found out that the bandits are just for money. Their village is quite far away from our place. We are just discussing whether we should go there?"
I got some benefits from the bandits' den last time, but of course I'm just lucky this time.
"I don't know either. Even though it's so far away, I don't know if anyone is still in their village?"
"Well, that's what I thought too. It's an advantage for these bandits."
"It's okay, I'm going back to sleep."
"Go ahead, I'm tired after a long night."
When Chen Miao returned home and entered the space, she went to Shen Wufu's village. There were more than 20 people inside, none of whom were strong. It was more than a hundred miles away, so it would be dangerous to come here.
They are just afraid of the mantis stalking the cicada and the oriole behind them. They are just ordinary people. If they were really intercepted, they would be too cowardly.
Walking around the village, I saw a woman with a big belly. This must be the elder sister-in-law, right? I suddenly remembered a saying, who the elder brother is depends on who the elder sister-in-law marries.
Based on the current situation, I think this sentence makes sense.
Looking at the situation in the village, there should be a lot of money, so I thought it would be better for Comrade Li and others to do this.
After waking up, I lay on the kang and read a book. Such a comfortable life is quite good.
She stopped going to eat in the evening, and before she could do it, Zhao Xiaoyun came again.
When we arrived at Shen's house, Landlord Liu was no longer there.
"Xiaofeng's family, I still want to go to the village."
"Fifth Uncle, I think the village must be quite big with so many bandits coming out. Otherwise, let's tell Comrade Li and the others."
"Just give up like that?"
"That's what I think."
"Okay, I'll go find Comrade Li tomorrow."
Xiuyue took Chen Miao to eat at their house. Tonight it was millet porridge and leftover steamed buns from lunch.
She went to the village again at night, but there was no news yet, so they could still live their lives as they wanted.
That sister-in-law is quite normal, they are just waiting for retribution.
He became a bandit and did a lot of evil things. Who could God forgive if he really fulfilled that sentence?
