Lu Lu returned to the bedroom, took out the animal skin book, stuffed it into his arms, and rode Zhui Feng out of the gate.
Seeing Lu Lu coming, Jiang Zewei, who was waiting outside, turned over and mounted his donkey without any trace of ink, and walked toward Xiushan Village.
Lu Lu followed leisurely and walked behind, arriving at Xiushan Tun more than ten minutes later.
When passing by the door of Wang Demin's house, Lu Lu stopped Jiang Zewei: "Uncle, please wait a moment. I will call Uncle Wang. He was asked to be the witness for this matter. Only with him here can the matter be explained clearly. Wait.
I'll call Brother Feng up at the door of Brother Feng's house later. Otherwise, the matter will be unclear. Some people really think that I am trying to steal your things. I can't explain it clearly with my mouth, and I have carried some dirt for nothing.
name."
"No need to call them, let's go directly to the threshing floor and ring the bell to call someone! Just do as I say."
Jiang Zewei reined in the donkey, turned around and said to Lu Lu.
Ring the bell?
This is ready to be big!
Lu Lu suddenly found that in front of Jiang Zewei, his courage was still weak.
Just like the bells in schools are used to greet students to class, get out of class, and school, two years ago in Xiushantun, the production team also used bells to notify employees to start work, hold meetings, etc.
Speaking of the bell in Xiushantun, it is actually a piece of scrap railway iron, tied with a piece of wire, and hung on the branches of the big persimmon tree on the threshing floor.
There was no electricity in the village yet, let alone broadcast telephones and the like. The production team had to ring the bell to summon everyone if something happened.
The bells in the production team, the time and the method of ringing are not like "morning bells and evening drums", there are not so many details, and there are no specific regulations.
When there is something to do, ring the bell, when there is work, there is no precise number of times, it is all up to the person who rings the bell.
Usually there is an old watchman who specializes in ringing the bell.
If something urgent happens to the production team, the production team leader himself will come in person.
If someone has something urgent, they can call.
This piece of scrap railway iron "ding-ding-ding-ding-ding-ding", the sound is clear, loud, and bright. Although the fields have been divided into households now, and each family is busy with their own business, this sound has been heard for so many years. I have become accustomed to it.
It has become a voice engraved in the bones of the people in the village.
It is no exaggeration to say that even the dogs in the village will get excited when the iron rails ring.
In his previous life, when Lu Lu came to Zengxiu Shan Village, this piece of scrap iron hanging on the big persimmon tree was still there. Later, I heard from Chen Xiuyu that it was sold by Feng Dezhu, the big nose.
Jiang Zewei chose to ring the bell, which was to summon the people in the village.
Originally, Lu Lu was still thinking of calling Zhang Shaofeng and Wang Demin as witnesses to resolve the matter and save some face for their family.
But Jiang Zewei's attitude was to slap his children's faces hard in front of everyone.
"Uncle, there's no need to do this, right? If they do this, I'm afraid they will be embarrassed to come to the village again. After all, they are your children." Lu Lu advised.
"It's not necessary. I have raised two white-eyed wolves who are not familiar with me. What I have done in this life is to find ways to pick on my old skills. I'm a bit picky. If I had known earlier that I was raising such two things.
Son, I wish I could have pushed them back, it made me so angry.
Today, you dare to come to your house, throw and smash things, and if you don’t teach them a lesson, they will soon become my father!”
Jiang Zewei said extremely annoyed.
Running to the house and throwing and smashing it?
It’s really too much to push them to this level!
However, this is a private matter of Jiang Zewei's family, and Lu Lu doesn't want to get involved.
He roughly understood that the last time Jiang Mingfeng went to Caodianzi, she was kicked out by Chen Xiuyu and was frightened by Zhao Tuanqing with a gunshot. She did not dare to make trouble again in Caodianzi. She probably used other methods to force Jiang Zewei to come forward.
It’s no wonder they haven’t visited me again after not seeing them for a few days.
It's a pity that Jiang Zewei, a man who had the ability to form a gang in his early years, make sworn friends, and wander in the wilderness, is not a weak character.
These two brothers and sisters, after so many years, still don't know Jiang Zewei's temperament.
"Uncle, have you really thought about it?" Lu Lu asked again.
"What's there to think about? You're going to sever ties with me... If you don't deal with them properly, I'm afraid they'll all want to come back and eat me. That's okay!"
Jiang Zewei snorted coldly and rode forward on the donkey: "Just do as I say! If anything happens, I will never blame you!"
Lu Lu thought for a while and said no more.
By doing this, things can be done very thoroughly. For Lu Lu, the advantages outweigh the disadvantages!
He immediately rode Zhui Feng and followed Jiang Zewei directly to the threshing floor in the village.
When the two arrived at the place, they tied the animal to the root of a tree.
Jiang Zewei asked again: "Have you really memorized the map in the animal skin book clearly?"
"Remember it clearly!" Lu Lu said with certainty.
"That's good, go get some firewood and make a fire on the big grain field! I'll burn this thing later and see what they do!"
As Jiang Zewei spoke, he used his crutches to sit down on the roots of the persimmon tree, took out his cigarette bag, and started rolling cigarettes.
Prepare to burn it with fire, it’s really thorough!
Lu Lu thought for a while and walked towards Chen Xiuqing's house.
"Qingzi...Qingzi!"
Arriving outside Chen Xiuqing's courtyard, Lu Lu shouted twice inside.
Fortunately this time, Qingzi didn't go to Yanzi and quickly opened the door and ran out, followed by Ma Jinlan to welcome him.
Chen Xiuyu had already brought back the bearskin coat made by Tuowuna Kan and gave it to Ma Jinlan. At this time, she was wearing the bearskin coat. She was no longer as thin as before, and her whole body did not look as old as before.
.
The door of Jiang Xianchang's house next door was still locked, and his woman seemed to have never come back after taking the child out.
Chen Xiuqing opened the courtyard door: "Brother Lu, come in quickly!"
"What are you doing today?" Lu Lu asked casually.
"I didn't do anything, just slept in at home!" Chen Xiuqing said with a smile.
"It's not enough to just sleep in. Move around, give me some firewood, use a sledge to pull it to the threshing floor, and light a fire!" Lu Lu gave the order directly.
"Going to the threshing floor to light a fire...what are you doing?" Chen Xiuqing was a little confused.
"Don't ask so many questions, we'll find out later!" Lu Lu smiled and didn't say much to him.
Chen Xiuqing was also sincere and immediately dragged the sledge over and helped Lu Lu move firewood onto the sledge.
It was just a firewood, but it didn't take much. Chen Xiuqing didn't even need to harness the horse, so he was dragged directly to the threshing floor by Chen Xiuqing.
At this time, Jiang Zewei was still the only one on the threshing floor, sitting under the tree and smoking.
Lu Lu was unloading the firewood in the center of the threshing floor. He turned back to Chen Xiuqing and said, "It's okay. You can send the sledge back."
Chen Xiuqing looked at Jiang Zewei, then at Lu Lu, and still couldn't help but asked curiously: "Brother Lu, what is going on?"
"Why are you talking so much? Send the sledge back quickly!" Lu Lu urged.
"Oh..." Chen Xiuqing pursed her lips and pulled the sledge back, turning back three times every step.
Jiang Zewei let out a long sigh, walked to the firewood pile with his crutches, started a fire, and kept adding firewood to it. When the fire became stronger, he limped to the abandoned railway under the persimmon tree,
He took off the rusty little hammer that was tied to the scrap iron and started banging on the scrap iron.
For a moment, a crisp sound echoed in the village.
It had been a long time since I had knocked on the door, but it was like a voice calling into my soul, and soon someone came quickly towards the threshing floor.
Seeing Lu Lu warming himself by the fire, they all gathered around the fire.
Someone who was familiar with Lu Lu came over and asked in a low voice: "What is going on?"
"It's just a little thing that I need to trouble everyone. We'll find out later!" Lu Lu smiled faintly.
Chen Xiuqing returned the sledge to the yard, immediately turned around and rushed back to the threshing floor. When he came back, he saw that the threshing floor was full of human heads, and people kept approaching. He immediately squeezed in
The crowd found Lu Lu and stood next to him.
Zhang Shaofeng and Wang Demin had also arrived and were questioning Jiang Zewei, who kept knocking on the scrap iron.
Jiang Zewei didn't say anything, and just kept tapping one after another until Jiang Minghao and Jiang Mingfeng, brothers and sisters, also followed them to the threshing floor.
The two of them were at home, and they finally forced Jiang Zewei to go find Lu Lu, thinking that he could get the things by waiting at home. Unexpectedly, what he was waiting for was like this.
As soon as they saw Jiang Zewei ringing the bell and so many people on the threshing floor, and then looking at Lu Lu warming himself by the fire, the two brothers and sisters looked at each other and immediately realized something was wrong.
The two men hurriedly ran to the big persimmon tree and grabbed Jiang Zewei.
"Dad, what are you doing?" Jiang Mingfeng asked in a low voice.
Jiang Minghao was even more anxious, and he probably figured out what was going on, and said quickly: "Dad, if there is anything we can discuss slowly, can we go home? We can talk about our own affairs behind closed doors..."
"
"Get out of here!"
Before Jiang Minghao finished speaking, he was thrown away by Jiang Zewei.
At this time, Lu Lu saw that people had almost arrived, and immediately said loudly: "I'm sorry for alarming everyone. I called everyone out today mainly to talk about some trivial matters."
Hearing Lu Lu's voice, the noisy people around him gradually became quiet.
Lu Lu looked at everyone with a smile and said: "A few days ago, I, Chen Xiuqing, Zhao Yongke and Liang Kangbo from Huilongtun, Liang Pao, accompanied Uncle Jiang on a trip to Zhangguangcai Ridge.
Uncle Jiang values love and justice, and the main reason why he went to that place was to pay homage to his brothers who died in the mountains in order to divorce them.
From the very beginning, this was a transaction..."
When Lu Lu said this, he took out the animal skin book from his arms, held it in his hand, and then said: "This thing records some maps of ginseng harvesting and omens in the early years. Uncle Jiang wanted to use this."
In exchange for his things, he allowed me to accompany him on this walk.
I agreed, and at that time we asked our village chief, Uncle Wang, and the security director, Brother Feng, to testify about this matter. I believe many people have heard about it.
Uncle Jiang is getting older. To be honest, I can't guarantee that I can come back safely after going out. Uncle Jiang himself has said that if there is any accident, it is not my fault. It will be a lifelong regret for him, and he will go even if he loses his life.
, His children also agreed, but I was worried because I was afraid that something would really happen and someone would blame me, so I invited Uncle Wang and Brother Feng to testify..."
"true!"
When Zhang Shaofeng saw Lu Lu taking out the animal skin book and talking about it, he immediately stood up to testify.
Wang Demin also stood up: "I can also testify. What Xiao Lu said is true. The two brothers and sisters agreed. They were both very smart at the time."
Lu Lu nodded gratefully at the two of them, and then continued: "Fortunately, we managed to lead Uncle Jiang away safely, and we also carried a few mallets along the way, and the money was equally divided.
The current situation is that Uncle Jiang’s daughter Jiang Mingfeng said that this thing is an heirloom of their family. Uncle Jiang is old, confused, and does stupid things. A few days ago, when Brother Feng and I went into the mountains to hunt, we also
They made trouble at my house and forced my daughter-in-law Xiuyu to take out this animal skin book.
To be honest, Uncle Jiang and I went to Zhangguangcailing. Uncle Jiang taught me a lot and taught me a lot about finding and carrying mallets. I learned a lot. In my heart, I think he is my master.
It's more than enough, and I'm grateful for his kindness.
Now, since his family said that they didn’t know the value of this thing at the time, and they said it was a stupid account, and they wanted to take the thing back, then I have nothing to say. I will return the thing right now. However, the thing is from Uncle Jiang.
Of course, what I took in my hands could only be returned to Uncle Jiang.
In order to prevent confusion from happening again in the future, I would like to ask everyone to be a witness today to prove that I returned the things! It also proves that I am not confused!"
Lu Lu said, walked towards Jiang Zewei, and when he got there, he handed the animal skin book back to Uncle Jiang: "Uncle, put your things away!"
Before he finished speaking, the crowd was already whispering.
After what they said, Jiang Minghao and Jiang Mingfeng's faces became increasingly ugly. Just the words spoken by the people around them were like a bombardment to them.
Glancing at Jiang Minghao and Jiang Mingfeng, he saw Jiang Minghao's gloomy face and Jiang Mingfeng simply looking at him sideways. Lu Lu shook his head and said loudly again: "Also, for today's matter, I originally wanted to ask Uncle Wang and
Brother Feng helped me testify and settled the matter privately, not wanting to alarm anyone. However, Uncle Jiang insisted on doing this, so I had no choice but to obey him...Thank you everyone."
At this point, Lu Lu turned around and looked at Jiang Minghao and Jiang Mingfeng: "You two, don't blame me. Now that the matter has been made clear and the things have been returned, if you dare to make trouble in my meadow again, don't blame me for turning your back on me!"
