Chapter 9 Foreshadowing

Captain Tian flicked his pipe and pot, and clasped his hands behind his back: "Okay, let's all disperse. Go and do whatever you need to do."

After a while, the crowd dispersed, and Tianye followed a group of men carrying poles and buckets to the river to fetch water. Tianye once again became aware of Captain Tian's prestige in Shanggang Village. This man himself

Not to be messed with.

She was thinking about Captain Tian. Yesterday she gave Aunt Niu some small shoes, but today Captain Tian dared to directly warn Aunt Niu that the two of them would be in trouble.

This person will deal with whoever he says he will deal with. This person in Shanggang Village is the local emperor and no one can mess with him.

For such a person who gritted his teeth and was determined to retaliate, Tian Ye couldn't help but think that his father didn't let this person get killed, right?

This question made the hairs on the back of Tian Tian’s neck stand up. It’s okay if life is hard. If his life is not guaranteed, Tian Tian feels that his life is hopeless. After years of starvation, don’t look back and let others give you more.

harmed.

Aunt Niu has a man supporting her. Captain Tian even dares to deal with her openly. But if it were him, he didn't even have a supportive relative. To deal with him, wouldn't it be a job on the back of his hand?

Although there is no danger in farming in the countryside, when they build dams, dangers are everywhere. Can she escape once or twice, and can she turn danger into good fortune every time?

I just hope that I think too much, and the villagers in Shanggang are still very simple. No matter how much Tian Ye enlightens me, I am still more careful than before when I work. It feels like a awn on my back.

Today Tianye made up his mind to follow Aunt Niu. Aunt Niu earned one point more than she did by carrying water. She couldn't carry more than Aunt Niu. Wouldn't that be a slap in the captain's face?

Tian Ye followed Mrs. Niu to carry water, and only walked two round trips for most of the day, which was much easier than before.

Mrs. Niu's ability to carry water was extraordinary. She swayed three times and two times, and she didn't go very far after carrying a full bucket of water. After two buckets of water, there wasn't much left.

Tian Tian said in disgust: "Mom, you don't have much water left in this bucket. You can still water a few seedlings if you are wandering around."

Aunt Niu blushed and had a thick neck: "What are you talking about? Auntie earns eight cents, can she compare with a group of men who earn ten cents? It's a lot to make two trips. Take care of yourself and don't talk too much if you have nothing to do."

Tian Ye responded honestly: "Oh, so this is how our centimeters are calculated."

Mrs. Niu shook her handkerchief and turned around, worriedly telling Tianye: "You kid, don't talk nonsense."

Tian Ye also had a towel on her body, but it was just for padding her shoulders. Her face was made out of trouble and she didn't dare to wipe it. Besides, she was very strong. If it hadn't been for the hot weather, she wouldn't have sweated even with this physical exertion.

He carried the bucket neatly and said innocently: "Don't worry, Mrs. Niu, I won't tell you a word." This was a cheerful promise, which was a bit different from the tone of voice he used to speak in the field in the past.

Mrs. Niu turned around and looked at the field for a long time. She must have heard wrongly, so she rubbed her lower back and continued to fetch water. This would really cost her her life.

On weekdays, when there are men at home, she doesn't even care about carrying the water in the water tank. How could she get this? Thinking of having to carry water for several days in a row, Aunt Niu felt very unwilling.

After finally thinking about it when the bell rang at noon, Mrs. Niu's face was streaked with sweat, and her shoulder-length brush head was stuck to the back of her neck. She dropped the pole in her hand and sat down on the ground.

I wish I could chew Captain Tian into pieces and use them as dry food.

Tian Ye urged Mrs. Niu slowly from behind: "Auntie, you are not hungry. If you go late, you will have no food. I heard that today is sorghum rice."

When Aunt Niu heard this, she became anxious and got up from the ground with all her strength: "Wild girl, help Aunt Niu carry the bucket."

Tian Ye doesn't care about this kind of work, it's something convenient. And she has to let people see her honest and heartless nature.

Four buckets were carried forward and backward on a pole, trying to avoid the gay men who were working together in the distance. They hung around Aunt Niu's side and walked toward the cafeteria together.

Compared with the time when she was carrying water just now, Mrs. Niu's footsteps towards the canteen were swishing. Tian Tianxin said she didn't know whether this person was really tired.

When the meal was being served, Mrs. Niu took the lead and pushed several men away, shouting shamelessly: "Get out of the way, get out of the way! How can a group of big men have the nerve to line up in front of a woman and compete with her?"

Let’s eat.”

No one was as knowledgeable as an old woman, so Mrs. Niu was at the front of the queue and proudly served a large bowl of sorghum rice.

Ye Ye went behind Aunt Niu to make a big bowl of sorghum rice and soaked it in green onion soup, which smelled delicious. No matter whether Aunt Niu disliked him or not, Ye Ye took the initiative to come to eat with Aunt Niu.

Aunt Niu was so worried about the good sorghum and rice that the rancid smell on this girl's body made it impossible to smell the rice.

But Aunt Niu didn't have time to rub Tian Tian away. She didn't have time for her mouth. The speed at which Aunt Niu ate made Tian Tian feel ashamed.

When Mrs. Niu went to serve the meal with a big bowl for the third time, the water carrier said: "Sister-in-law, you are not a good worker, and you don't eat less than us men."

Aunt Niu: "Fart, I earn eight cents, how can I compare with ten cents you earn? The centimeter allowance is less, and you don't even have enough food to eat. I can't do this job anymore."

Aunt Niu didn't want to fetch water, and was worried that she wouldn't have a chance to make a fuss. Isn't she just looking for trouble?

These words were so strong that the man who didn't care much at first was unwilling to listen: "My father is not short of a wife, so don't be a mother to me. You are a woman who spends your whole day looking after your son."

"

A group of gentlemen talked in a rude manner. Mrs. Niu blushed and had a thick neck. After filling a large bowl of rice, she turned around and talked to the captain.

She didn't go behind anyone's back either: "Captain, I can't do this work. How much work do you want me to do for the eight-divided labor? I have to take care of myself even though I have to eat some food. Otherwise, you can change the work for me this afternoon."

"

Everyone around me laughed. After eating, I picked a job. I really spoke out, and it was rare to meet such a thick-skinned person.

The captain looked at Mrs. Niu's job: "The Niu family's job is almost enough, eight points is a lot."

The person next to me burst out laughing: "Sister-in-law, the captain is kind, the little water you picked up is enough for the food."

Captain Tian remained silent, this man had eyes.

Mrs. Niu: "Go, go, go away."

Aunt Niu refused to give up: "Captain, if you don't want to change, I won't change. But look at which woman is fetching water. She works so hard. You have to give me one more point."

Captain Tian's purpose is to deal with this talkative old lady, and he doesn't care if she gets an extra minute and a half.

When he becomes the captain, he also needs to buy it with the villagers. Otherwise, how can he establish his prestige?

I couldn't bear Mrs. Niu's pestering: "Okay, don't say that I, Tian Gang, have a tough face and are unreasonable. Everyone happens to be here. If you don't have any objections, I will give you one point."
