Chapter 5 Gossip

"Ding-ling-ling..." A bicycle bell rang from behind.

Luo Xiao didn't look back and just kept pedaling his bike.

The car speed remained the same as before, neither accelerating nor decelerating.

"Hahaha, you are so useless. You can't catch up with me!" Luo Dawang shouted arrogantly at the people behind him.

When Luo Xiao heard the sound, he unconsciously tightened his grip on the handlebars of the bicycle.

At the same time, he recalled why he became a one-eyed dragon in his previous life.

And the culprit is the owner of this voice!

In his previous life, not long after this summer vacation, his father who was addicted to buying lottery tickets bought a set of lottery tickets and won 20,000 yuan. He was so happy that he bought him a realistic toy gun. The bullets in the gun could shoot down the birds in the trees. He also became the king of the children in the village with the help of that toy gun.

Luo Xiao was the unlucky guy. He was picking wild vegetables in the woods that day and was hit in the eye by his toy gun. Thinking of this, he even felt a little pain in his now intact left eye.

But that was all his illusion. After all, his eyesight was still good at this moment in his life.

And in this life, he will never make the same mistake again, and he will win the lottery, but not only the 20,000 yuan that the other party's father won, but also the 200,000 yuan that the other party's father boasted to others after drinking, and he always remembered that set of numbers.

The person riding a bicycle behind whizzed past Luo Xiao's bicycle, stirring up a cloud of dust.

Luo Xiao half-closed his eyes and stopped his bicycle.

It is better to have less trouble than more. Let them be. He is an orphan in the village now. If a conflict really occurs, the villagers will not help the right one instead of the relative. After all, he has experienced the fickleness of human nature in his previous life.

Luo Xiao, who was lagging behind, didn't know that the people in front were discussing him.

"Isn't that the guy just now Luo Xiao, the one that no one wants? His grandfather died, and his parents got married a long time ago, leaving him as a burden, and no one wants him."

"My mom said it seemed like his parents ran away and left him behind. It seems like that's the case."

"It's actually pretty good this way. No one's watching over me, so I can do whatever I want."

"Tsk, do whatever you want. Let me ask you who can cook and how many can wash clothes." One person objected.

"It seems to make sense. That's what women do. I wouldn't do that."

They talked about this topic for quite a while.

After one of them changed the subject, their bicycles started chasing each other again.

Here, Luo Xiao was sure that they were already some distance away from him, so he pedaled his bike back slowly.

Not long after riding, he had good eyesight and noticed a pile of rotten watermelons on the road ahead.

It was obvious that someone bought a watermelon at the market, broke it on the road, and then they cleaned the dirt off the large pieces and ate them on the spot, and the ones that could not be eaten were contributed to the earth.

Luo Xiao stopped his bicycle, picked a large leaf from the roadside, broke a branch, and collected the watermelon seeds that had fallen on the ground.

You should know that people nowadays seldom spit out the seeds when eating watermelons. The ones that fell on the ground naturally have more seeds. Moreover, this watermelon is not a genetically modified variety, which means that the seeds can be planted. Even if the seeds are not strong, his space is strong. When he grows them in the space, he will have big watermelons to eat.

Thinking of this, Luo Xiao was very excited.

After all, who doesn’t love sweet big watermelon?

Just like picking up seeds from the garbage dump before, the watermelon seeds on the muddy ground were wrapped by leaves. The moment they were put into the backpack, they disappeared from the backpack and appeared in the space.

As soon as I got on my bike, I heard the sound of a tractor not far behind me.

Luo Xiao looked back and saw that the tractor was full of people and things. It was obvious that people had returned from the market.

"Luo Xiao is also going to the market?" Luo Jiandang, who was driving the tractor, asked in a hoarse voice.

The tractor was making so much noise that I had to shout to speak.

"Yes, uncle village chief, you are back from the market too. Uncles and aunts are also back from the market?" Luo Xiao replied loudly, while not forgetting to greet the people on the cart politely.

"Yes, yes, yes, we are going to the market. You pedal slowly on your bike. Our tractor is faster, so we'll go first." The people on the tractor said this when it passed Luo Xiao, and then left behind black smoke and dust. Luo Xiao stopped where he was, and he was going to wait until the dust settled a little before leaving.

Just like the people who had passed him before, the people on the tractor were having a lot of fun at this moment.

All the gossip revolves around Luo Xiao's family.

It was the 1990s, and divorces were not uncommon, but it was the first time that Luo Xiao's parents left their child alone after the divorce. And Mr. Luo, who was able to raise the child, unfortunately passed away, and now Luo Xiao was left like an orphan.

On the tractor, everyone was talking to each other, it was so lively.

"Luo Donglu has changed the registered address of the property to Luo Xiao. I guess he won't come back. It's true that after having a new wife and a new son, the old son is no longer important." Huang Chunhua blabbered.

"What? Did they change the property certificate for their house?" someone asked.

"That's right. On the day of the change, I happened to be in the office getting a certificate. Let me tell you, Luo Donglu said at that time: Han Pingping, don't argue anymore. Our son belongs to both of us. I have given him the house. What's wrong with you paying 3,000 yuan? You can't give him the house, so it's fair to pay him! Then Han Pingping refused to agree. She said directly: Luo Donglu, you are changing the property certificate of a shabby house. The house was not built by you. At most, you have benefited from your ancestors. You asked for 3,000 yuan. Why don't you just go and rob it! Then the two of them argued about everything. Finally, the staff coordinated and one of them paid 2,000 yuan for the house..." Huang Chunhua imitated the scene and dialogue at that time vividly, while dancing and gesticulating. She was extremely excited. If she hadn't been on the tractor bucket, which restricted her movements, her body movements could have been even more exaggerated.

This caused all the onlookers in the car to prick up their ears.

The village chief was actually there that day, but sometimes the melon that had been eaten was mentioned again by others, and they said that it could still be eaten again.

"Really, Chunhua?" someone asked.

"Of course. The village chief was also there that day. Village chief, please tell everyone whether I told lies." Huang Chunhua signaled everyone to ask the village chief.

"Ahem, it's true. Huang Chunhua didn't say anything nonsense. That's what happened at that time." The village chief, who was concentrating on driving the tractor and eating melons at the same time, was suddenly called out and was blown by the wind. He coughed twice and replied.

"Look, although I, Huang Chunhua, am a bit talkative and I say too much, I, Huang Chunhua, never tell lies." Huang Chunhua held her head high. If the space in the truck bed was not limited, she would have proudly put her hands on her hips.

Their gossip, mixed with the roar of the tractor, reached the village.

On Luo Xiao's side, after observing that no one would pass by, he reached his hand into the backpack, and the weight of the backpack became much lighter. The 20 kilograms of rice and the bag entered the space together. After there was no weight, he got on the bicycle again, and the speed of the bicycle increased significantly.
