Three hundred and seventy-one Exposed shortcomings
As soon as this statement came out, other people also thought it made sense.
Lao Wu nodded repeatedly: "People in our village are almost exhausted just carrying water these days. Who has the energy to dig traps?"
"No, when I was carrying water to irrigate the fields a few days ago, I couldn't wait to fall asleep immediately when I got home. I was so tired that I didn't even want to eat. Don't tell me to run to Xishan and dig traps. It was the old lady who urged me.
I don’t even want to wash my feet.”
As soon as these words came out, everyone couldn't help but laugh.
Someone couldn't help but joked: "Lao Wu, because of the smell of your feet, if you don't wash your feet, your brothers and sisters won't kick you out of bed."
Lao Wu curled his lips: "Why do my feet smell? Don't talk nonsense. My feet are clean."
The old branch secretary couldn't help but laugh: "Lao Wu, you mean it with all your heart when you say that. Among us old guys, your feet are the most delicious."
The captain also nodded repeatedly: "That's right, I still remember when we were young, we would carry big bags for others and sleep on the same bunk at night. As soon as you took off your shoes, my brothers would burst into tears..."
"Hahahaha! That's right, that's right! You still have the nerve to say it doesn't stink, even the socks you wear can stand up."
Lao Wu was not happy to be eliminated by a group of old brothers.
"Go, go, go! Don't talk nonsense, why don't I remember this? I'm young and it's better."
The fifth child is a tough talker and will never admit that this happened when he was young.
As long as he doesn't admit it, it means nothing.
The old party secretary pointed at him and laughed: "Hahaha! You still don't admit it, it's not because the old brothers are trying to kill you, but you still remember that there was a young student kid who came out of home to go to school, and was robbed of his baggage on the way.
, I can only stay in Datongbu at night. Student kids love to be clean. As soon as you take off your shoes, my dear, they will vomit directly to their student kids..."
"Haha, hahaha! This student kid lost five or six pounds in three days because of your feet. It made her parents who came over after receiving the news feel very distressed."
When the old branch secretary mentioned this, several old guys who also thought about it laughed and slapped their thighs.
"I... wasn't I too tired to carry big bags during the day and didn't wash my feet at night? Is that that exaggerated? I don't believe you old guys wash your feet every day." Lao Wu defended himself with a red face.
"Even if we don't wash our feet, we can't compare to you..."
This remark caused bursts of laughter again.
"You...you, you, you, you." Lao Wu's face turned red with shame. Looking at a group of unruly old guys, he directly launched his ultimate move.
"If you say my feet are smelly, how can you old guys be any better? You all have a lot of problems."
As he said that, Lao Wu pointed at the captain who was laughing the most with his pipe: "Don't laugh. Who doesn't know that when you were young, you spent several years chasing girls for your father-in-law's family. In the end, three years, three whole years,
In the end, the girl was married off to another family."
Lao Wu took a puff from his pipe, squinted his eyes slightly, and said with a malicious look on his face: "Let me think about it, why."
"Lao Wu, it's nothing, don't talk nonsense." The captain thought of something, his face couldn't help but twist, and he took a step forward, as if he wanted to shut up Lao Wu!
But the old beggar who had just been exposed gave up so easily.
Anyway, he has already lost his face, so why not let a few old guys accompany him.
Lao Wu slapped his thigh, and while the captain was reeling from the list, he slowly uttered: "Oh, by the way, I remembered it! A certain idiot who fell in love with a girl and wanted to please his father-in-law. Before he could please his father-in-law, he said
I didn't ask around, but I ended up struggling to pick out water for three years. Not to mention that the girl was married to someone else. Just because some fool picked the wrong person for the water. He chose the neighbor of the girl he liked.
water for three years.
Hahahaha! Even if you can please the wrong person by trying to please my father-in-law, I am laughing so hard!"
"Haha, hahaha!"
Mentioning this, the old branch secretary and the others couldn't help but laugh out loud.
It's not that they are unreasonable, it's just that what the captain did was outrageous.
Just one day, two days, or even 10 days and half a month, it is understandable.
But for three whole years, he didn't realize that he was trying to please the wrong father-in-law.
In the end, the old party secretary said honestly and patted his thigh: "Okay, okay! Stop talking. If his mother-in-law knows about this, he won't have to go to the kang in the future."
Mentioning this, the captain couldn't help but feel guilty.
My mother-in-law still thinks that he fetched water for her family because he fell in love with her.
However, a combination of circumstances led to a good marriage.
If you ask the captain, if you think about it now, will you regret that you didn't marry the girl you fell in love with because of your carelessness?
The captain shook his head and said he had no regrets at all.
That girl is really that good. Actually, that's not necessarily true. It's just that he admired her when he was young and thought he liked her.
As early as the moment he married his mother-in-law home, he had already decided that she was the one who would accompany him for the rest of his life.
As for the girl in his memory, if no one mentioned it, the captain would almost forget it.
Even if someone mentions him now, the captain can no longer think of what the other party looks like.
Several people also knew the seriousness, so they laughed twice and changed the topic.
Lao Wu then turned his attention to the next person.
"Smile, laugh, laugh! You thought you had never done anything stupid when you were young, and you didn't know that you were as brave as a mouse. You obviously fell in love with other girls, but you didn't dare to say anything.
Call you timid, and you look like a fool. The brother and sister thought that the girl was being bullied, so they ran out and beat up the man who was following the girl. As a result, the girl was stunned.
…”
Before he finished speaking, several other people had obviously remembered the reason.
The captain who had been eliminated just now laughed so hard that he slapped his thigh.
"Hahaha, you still have the nerve to laugh at me, and you didn't even listen to what you were doing. Before anything happened, you beat up your brother-in-law, hahahahaha! If I were your father-in-law, I would definitely not live or die.
Agree to this marriage."
A certain person who was exposed had a drooping face and couldn't help but feel guilty.
He was young at the time, and besides, his brother-in-law and his mother-in-law looked alike, so how could he tell that they were brother and sister.
Seeing the way the two were playing around, he thought...that they were in love with each other.
之所以冲过去打人,除了看不得心上姑娘受委屈之外,未必没有想趁机揍“情敌”一顿的意思.
Little did he know that he was beating his future brother-in-law.
Because of this, his pursuit of his wife is far away.
His future brother-in-law would give him a lot of stumbling blocks.
Even now, his brother-in-law doesn't like him very much and wants to take his mother-in-law home from time to time.
snort!
He is kind to his mother-in-law. His mother-in-law cares about her, so she will not go back with her brother-in-law.
For the next time, Zhang Yu squatted aside silently, eating melon quietly without saying a word.
In order not to attract attention, she pinched her thighs and tried not to laugh.
However, efforts are not without reward.
A group of people just ignored him and allowed him to listen to gossip for a long time.
Among them was a person who was too dark when he was young. When he stayed at his father-in-law's house for the first time, he slept on a kang with his father-in-law. When he went to the toilet at night, his father-in-law lit a kerosene lamp and didn't see him. He almost sat down while squatting.
Trap him.
And the experience of someone who was kidnapped by a bandit leader as his son-in-law because of his good looks when he was young, and managed to escape with great difficulty.
It can be said that any thing is quite exciting.
Zhang Yu thinks these stories are more exciting than TV series.
Several old men were chatting and found that they could no longer continue this topic.
If we continue to expose each other like this, both sides will suffer in the end, and no one will be able to benefit from it.
Several old men tacitly changed the topic back to what they had said at the beginning.
When the matter of traps was mentioned, several people's faces became serious again.
The old branch secretary thought for a while, looked at Lao Wu beside him, and said directly: "Lao Wu, although it is unlikely that he is from our brigade, you can help me keep an eye out for anything suspicious recently."
Lao Wu nodded: "Okay, I'll go back and mention it to the old lady at home and ask her to ask the women in the village."
The old branch secretary turned his attention to the others: "Please help me keep an eye on you when you are working. I think if it is not someone from our brigade, they can't be far away. After watering the ground, you can find time to take care of your mother-in-law."
Go back to your parents’ house and help inquire about it.”
"OK!"
The old party secretary finally focused on the captain: "That person actually spent so much effort digging a trap. He will definitely not give up so easily and will definitely come back. Go back and talk to the militiamen in the team and let them
I've been going to Xishan a lot lately to see if I can catch someone and get some stolen goods."
The captain wanted to nod, but suddenly he didn't know what he thought of and was stunned for a moment.
Then he said: "Old party secretary, have the militiamen of the brigade been working in the past few days?"
As soon as these words came out, a sharp look flashed in the old party secretary's eyes: "Are you doubtful?"
The captain nodded: "I'm not sure, I just have a suspicion. In the past two years, all the iron tools in our brigade were looted for the purpose of refining, and every household donated not only shovels and hoes, but also pots.
The only place in the village that still has farm tools is the brigade headquarters.”
Thinking of this, the captain seemed to realize something. His eyes widened: "I'll go back and check to see who has borrowed a shovel recently?"
The old party secretary nodded. It was not that they wanted to doubt a few militiamen, but after looking at it, only a few militiamen in the whole brigade had time to go to Xishan to dig traps.
This was either done by other villages or the militia.
The old party secretary really doesn’t want a few militiamen to do it, but...
"Be careful!" the old party secretary warned worriedly.
The captain nodded: "Aren't you still worried about what I'm doing?"
After the group of people discussed their strategy, the atmosphere became quite silent.
They didn't believe that the militiamen of the brigade would do this, but...
I just hope it's not...
In the end, it was the old party secretary who broke the atmosphere.
Listening to the roar of the tractor and watching the water pouring into the field, the corners of his mouth couldn't help but curl up slightly, and he wasn't as upset as before.
Seeing that another piece of land had been watered, the old branch secretary said: "We are not hungry this year thanks to Xiaoyu, but we can't treat Xiaoyu badly."
The captain patted his chest: "Don't worry, we are not such people. I remember Xiaoyu's great kindness to us. I have prepared the things a long time ago and I will never treat Xiaoyu badly."
The old party secretary nodded: "Well, I heard from Hongguang that his grandson likes to make medicinal wine. I still have some good medicinal materials on hand, so I will add them too."
Captain: "Okay!"
"I also have some medicinal materials. It's useless to keep them. Since Xiaoyu likes them, let's add them too." Lao Wu interjected.
Listening to several old people discussing preparing things for themselves, Zhang Yu felt warm in his heart.
He no longer cares about the value of these things. What he cares about is the opinions of others.
Looking at the water hose in the system space, Zhang Yu began to think about finding a reason to take it out.
The existing wells are not enough to cover all the fields, and relying on the only water belts, many places cannot be watered.
There are two ways now. One is to find more water hoses.
This is not difficult at all. He still has some hoses in his system space. He just needs to find a reason to take them out.
However, just extending the water hose is not the best way. There is a limit to extending the water hose, and many places still cannot be watered.
There is another way left, which is to dig wells and drill more wells next to the fields.
Looking at the people discussing there, Zhang Yu quietly took a few steps back and slowly left.
Under the current circumstances, it was better for him not to hang around in front of a few old men.
In order to prevent these people from remembering those words that exposed each other's shortcomings just now.
Fortunately, it was dark now and Zhang Yu didn't bring a flashlight when he came over. Several people thought he had left long ago, so they didn't pay attention.
Zhang Yu left quietly.
What he didn't see was that the moment he turned to leave, the old party secretary's ears twitched, and there was a hint of a bad smile in Lao Wu's eyes when he looked at the old guys.
Obviously, Lao Wu has discovered something?
But he didn't say it.
Looking at a group of old guys, Lao Wu had a smile in his eyes.
He did it on purpose. He had already noticed that Zhang Yu's kid hadn't left yet.
Let you expose my shortcomings!
You made me embarrassed in front of the juniors, now it’s okay. If I want to be embarrassed, we all will be embarrassed together, and no one can escape.
Facing Lao Wu's evil smile, the old branch secretary had no intention of reminding the old guys.
It can be said that in the whole incident, he was the only one who did not embarrass himself in front of the juniors.
As long as he didn't lose face, as for the old guys, the old party secretary said he didn't know anything.
Because of the trap incident, the atmosphere in the village has not been very good recently.
The children are also restrained by their parents and are not allowed to run around.
Many parents once again warned their children not to run to Xishan, and even slapped them in the face.
The children who were originally allowed to collect firewood and dig wild vegetables at the foot of the Western Mountain are now not allowed to go because of this.
Everything seemed peaceful.
However, there is something suppressed beneath the calmness.
At this time, the captain did not know that while everyone was focusing on the trap in the watering ground and the west mountain, the Educated Youth Department, which had been silent for a long time, once again gave her a big "surprise"!
This "surprise" was enough to throw the whole brigade into a frenzy, and it also laid a solid foundation for the Xie family brigade to accept all kinds of bad elements later rather than accept educated youths.
