Chapter 40 Magpie God

Gao Jian and Gao Qing's father were under constant observation in the hospital because they were both seriously injured.

Both of them had their penises completely broken and had to be removed. In the past two days, they even had to use a catheter to pee.

Gao Jian's condition was more serious. He also had a scissor wound on his shoulder, which was severely infected and had a high fever. He was confused and did not respond to questions. Even if they wanted to investigate something, they had to wait for his fever to subside.

Gao Qing's father was conscious, but because he was disabled, he went crazy all night and ignored all questions. He was conscious the next morning and admitted his mistakes very sincerely. He said whatever he wanted and put the blame on Gao Jian.

For example, the gold, silver and finances in the basement all belonged to Gao Jian, the women were also captured by Gao Jian, and as for the granary, it was also Gao Jian who ordered it to be built.

Gao Jian holds the keys.

They were all forced, all by Gao Jian. Gao Jian asked them to do so. Even Gao Qing's forced marriage to Jiang Rong was Gao Jian's idea, because Gao Jian wanted to get Jiang Mi to the Xinghua Brigade.

As for Qin Chen's matter, he was even more innocent. It was Gao Jian who led people to capture him.

It seems that he has done something bad, but in fact it was all Gao Jian's decision. He is innocent. He couldn't sleep for countless nights and wanted to expose Gao Jian countless times, but he was afraid of being killed by Gao Jian!

In his testimony, they were forced to do this bad thing.

He thought that this way he would avoid being shot. Who wouldn't be afraid of death? He thought about it all night, a night of agony, and came up with this idea.

The closer he was to death, the more afraid he was of death. He wanted to live so much.

The police officer who was guarding him was speechless and wanted to shoot Gao Qing's father in the head. If he was innocent, then there would be no bad people in this world.

Based on the evidence of Gao Qing's father's guilt, he should definitely be shot. There is no point in trying to shirk responsibility.

As for Gao Jian, he committed suicide before his fever subsided and he was conscious?

Gao Jian cut his wrist with a pair of scissors. When the police found him, he was already dead, his eyes were wide open, and there was blood all over the bed. The scissors were in his other hand.

Gao Jian's connection was broken.

When a person dies, his mouth shuts.

Fang Ming rushed to the hospital to see that the two police officers guarding Gao Jian were dejected and ashamed. They had eaten something bad in the morning and had diarrhea. At first, they knew to go to the toilet at different times and leave one person to watch over them, but they really couldn't hold it in any longer and couldn't poop in their pants.

There was a moment when no one was in the ward, less than two minutes.

The two policemen thought the diarrhea was an accident and didn't think much about it. They had been comfortable for too long and had no vigilance at all.

Pants, won't leave.

Fang Ming: "You two have diarrhea together? Do you have any brains? What did you eat this morning?"

The two of them lowered their heads lower and lower.

A female police officer quickly defended herself: "I got food from the cafeteria and it was delivered to me. I ate it myself. I'm fine."

Unfortunately, after eating, the two police officers kept running to the toilet. They also held their stomachs, unable to hold it in any longer.

Fang Ming continued to ask the female police officer about the details of buying the meal.

The meal was in her hand the whole time. When she came out, she met Tan Zhuang and another policeman and exchanged a few words with them.

Fang Ming understood what Tan Zhuang had done. He waved his hands helplessly and said, "Go buy them some anti-diarrhea medicine. I hope they'll learn this lesson from now on."

When I returned to the Public Security Bureau, Yang Mo had also returned from the Education Bureau and found out the quotas for the Workers, Peasants and Soldiers University in those years.

The name of Tan Zhuang’s eldest son, Tan Xiu, was indeed in it.

Fang Ming walked into the interrogation room with the list.

Seeing Fang Ming, Tan Zhuang smiled helplessly and said, "Director Fang, you believe the words of a little girl, but you don't believe me, an old police officer with more than ten years of experience."

Fang Ming: "Lao Zhuang, congratulations! Tan Xiu can go to Workers, Peasants and Soldiers University. How come you never told us about this?"

Tan Zhuang: "It's not a big deal, what's there to say?"

Fang Ming sneered, "How could you, a veteran police officer with over ten years under your belt, ignore the educated youth's plea for help? How could you possibly drug their food? Doesn't your conscience bother you? Wouldn't you have nightmares if you used this money to buy your son a place at the Workers, Peasants, and Soldiers University?"

Tan Zhuang: "Director Fang, the Public Security Bureau relies on evidence when handling cases. You want to convict me based on this alone? I don't know Zheng Heyu, and I've never met her."

Fang Ming walked out with the list. It was difficult to deal with an old policeman. Unlike Peng Wentao, he gave up Xiao Ya'an after a few threats.

Xiao Ya'an cannot be arrested for the time being. She is undergoing an abortion in the hospital and is currently recovering there. If we want to arrest her and investigate her, we have to wait until she is discharged from the hospital.

Gao Qing and Gao Qing's father didn't know anything more and just said that Gao Jian did everything.

Fang Ming took his men to the Xinghua Brigade again.

Now the captain and accountant of the Xinghua Brigade have stepped down. Yu Fei is temporarily the captain, Zhao Fan is the accountant, Zhou Yi is the scorer, and Dali is in charge of the warehouse.

All the members of the Gao family were imprisoned, and these positions became vacant.

Can't we just let them do it just because they are victims? What if they are as jealous of the people in the brigade as the Gao family is?

Many people in the brigade were also exploited and oppressed by the Gao family!

The Xinghua Brigade elected He Dazhuang as the brigade leader. He had also been persecuted by the Gao family before.

Juanzi’s elder brother He Daqiang should have been the accountant, and he was also a victim.

The two are from the Xinghua Brigade and are more suitable for these positions.

The official assigned by the county party committee said, "You were oppressed before and didn't know how to resist. It was the brave educated youth who fought and overthrew the Gao family, pierced the shackles of the Xinghua Brigade, won victory, and brought light to the Xinghua Brigade. And now you are arguing that this is unfair? If Yu Fei, the brigade leader, can't be fair and impartial, then you can come to the county and file a lawsuit."

Everyone fell silent instantly.

Yu Fei reallocated the farming tasks in the team. The days of relying on currying favor with the Gao family to do light work and get high work points were over. If they wanted to get high work points, they had to work hard.

As for the members who used to do heavy work and get low work points, they now get high work points.

In addition, the work points of the past two years were re-recorded to make up for the shortage of food and deducted from the Gao family's grain reserves.

Those who were originally unhappy suddenly fell silent. They cared more about the food in their pockets. The members who had been oppressed for several years all smiled.

They will finally be able to have enough to eat.

Now the Xinghua Brigade is back on track.

People with the surname Gao were all keeping their heads down. In the days since the Gao family was captured, they had not only been beaten, but all those who had been beaten by them had come to seek revenge.

Yu Fei didn't care about these things, but he didn't beat anyone to death or maim them.

Once someone dies or becomes disabled, he will send both parties to the public security bureau.

Therefore, everyone should know their limits. Revenge is fine, but you cannot risk your life for it.

Fang Ming came to the brigade to investigate. As long as it was about the Gao family, especially the matters of Gao Jian and Xiao Ya'an, Fang Ming listened very carefully.

One of the members' words caught Fang Ming's attention.

After Gao Jian and Xiao Ya'an got married, they would drive back every few months, and their father-in-law would follow them.

I'll probably stay for a day and then leave.

Fang Ming asked the members what they were doing living here?

The member pointed to the mountain behind him and said, "We go hiking, picking mushrooms and hunting. I think we even caught a wild goat. The yard is filled with fragrance every day."

Fang Ming went to check again

They searched Gao Jian's house thoroughly but found nothing unusual. They then asked the members of the commune to lead them up the mountain and climbed for half a day, and finally got down the mountain before dark.

It is too dangerous in the mountains at night, and the members do not dare to go deep into the mountains.

Nothing was found.

There must be something wrong on the mountain, but Fang Ming doesn't know where the problem is. He won't give up looking for it until he finds it. He plans to go back to the county with the military dog to look for it. He must find out everything before Xiao Ya'an is discharged from the hospital.

Luochengling Brigade

Jiang Miao went to school with Goudan and Huzi. Jiang Mi also packed her backpack and fetched some water and followed Chen Xi and others out of the village.

Haven't left the team yet.

Yang Manli came to find Ding Ankang. She gently took out a few bird eggs and said, "Brother Ankang, these are the bird eggs I found this morning. They're already cooked. Try them. They're just as good as chicken eggs and even more nutritious."

Ding Ankang looked at her affectionately: "Comrade Manli, you are so kind to me. I have eaten this morning, you can have yours."

Yang Manli peeled a bird egg and said, "Try it. It's not hot anymore."

Ding Ankang ate the bird eggs peeled by Yang Manli and recited an impromptu doggerel that he had written yesterday.

Yang Manli: "Brother Ankang is so talented. This poem is so beautiful."

Ding Ankang: "Let me read it to you again. This is an acrostic poem. It is my praise for you."

Yang Manli listened to it again: "Soft, affectionate, like, water, graceful." She shyly called out, "Brother Ankang."

Ding Ankang: "Comrade Manli."

He Zhaodi: "My fists are hard. Why are these two people so disgusting?"

Chen Xi: "Isn't this quite interesting? It's even better than making a movie."

Jiang Mi was also watching for fun: "Look how romantic it is, and he can even write acrostic poems, he's quite talented. Just treat it as a movie, it's so exciting. It will definitely be more exciting in the future. Let's just wait and eat the wedding candy."

Ding Ankang does have some talent. This doggerel is gorgeous in wording and quite poetic.

Xu Nian'er: "That's not necessarily true. I think Ding Ankang just wants people to give him food and help him with his work."

At this moment, Zhou Hehua also came over and brought a boiled egg.

Ding Ankang refused it resolutely, but Zhou Hehua said that if he didn't eat it, she would throw it away.

Xu Nian'er: "Don't throw it away, I love to eat it."

Ding Ankang and Zhou Hehua simply ignored her.

Ding Ankang said that in order not to waste food, he ate the eggs anyway.

In order to thank Zhou Hehua, he improvised an acrostic poem, "Hard-working Hehua".

Zhou Hehua happily punched Ding Ankang in the chest. "Brother Ankang's poetry is so beautiful. He's so talented. You can tell you're from the city. I'm sure you'll be able to return to the city in the future."

Ding Ankang clutched his chest, it hurt! "Hehua, a girl should be gentle."

Zhou Hehua quickly said, "I was so happy that I didn't control my strength well for a moment. I will definitely not do that next time."

Yang Manli curled her lips and said that she worked hard, so why should she be happy? What a fool! She said softly, "Brother Ankang, how are you? Let me massage you." She gently helped Ding Ankang massage his chest.

Then he reacted and stepped back shyly.

When they arrived at the field, Zhou Hehua and Yang Manli rushed to help Ding Ankang with the work, allowing Ding Ankang to rest at the field.

Several old ladies:!!!

Old Mrs. He said, "Don't argue. You two should work together. This piece of land belongs to both of you."

Zhou Hehua: "This acre of land is still yours!"

Another old lady said, "Hehua, does your mother know that you are like this?"

Zhou Hehua: "Don't worry about that, just get back to work."

Jiang Mi and others watched Ding Ankang standing at the edge of the field reciting poetry while Zhou Hehua and Yang Manli worked in the fields!

Cheng Yuze was envious, but he didn't want to work either.

He Zhaodi: "There are still people rushing to work for others? Is there something seriously wrong with their brains?"

Xu Nian'er: "Do they think Ding Ankang's family is rich?"

A group of people were reluctant to leave and walked here to take a look.

Someone said to Yang Manli's mother, "Is your daughter planning to get married? Ding Ankang seems out of place, so she has poor judgment. Is she planning to marry and still work with him?"

Yang Manli's mother laughed: "What's the big deal? If you can't do the work, just work less? Our family has high work points, so why worry about not being able to support a son-in-law?"

Ding Ankang is a high school student. His family is from Beijing and he has money. There is nothing wrong with marrying such a person.

How much money can someone who knows how to do farm work save in a year?

Ding Ankang has more than a hundred yuan in his hand.

Others curled their lips.

On the other side, Zhou Hehua's mother was not happy with this. She rushed to the edge of the field and grabbed Zhou Hehua's ear. "Your family doesn't let you work because they love you, so you come to help men work? If you want to work, go to the fields and earn your own work points." She was so angry that she slapped Ding Ankang twice and said, "If you flirt with my Hehua again,

I will beat you to death."

Ding Ankang burst into tears. Zhou Hehua shouted, "Ankang, although my mother forced me to leave, I will not compromise. Wait for me."

Yang Manli distressedly helped Ding Ankang apply the mask on his face, "Does it hurt?"

Ding Ankang: "It hurts! Come up here quickly, I'll do it myself." He was afraid that Yang Manli's family would come and beat him up.

Yang Manli said from the side: "Brother Ankang, I'm cheering for you!"

Scorer Zhou Huaimin shouted, "Everyone go to work. If you continue to watch, one work point will be deducted from each of you." She stood by and watched.

But it was no fun anymore. Ding Ankang worked while crying, Yang Manli occasionally encouraging him and offering him water. Ding Ankang even missed the chance to rest at the edge of the field to drink water. Finally, he was too tired and said to Yang Manli, "I remembered a poem. I'll go to the edge of the field and recite it to you."

Jiang Mi also walked towards the back mountain to herd sheep. It was still the same place. Yang Jiahe was sitting on the grass, still eating melon seeds.

This time it's watermelon seeds.

Jiang Mi ran to his side, took out two bunches of grapes from her schoolbag, and handed him one. "Want some? I exchanged them at the county yesterday. They're super sweet."

Yang Jiahe accepted all the grapes and picked one to throw in his mouth, "It's delicious.

Jiang Mi was eating another bunch of grapes. She didn't like the skins of grapes because they were a little bitter, so she threw them to the lamb. Soon, a group of sheep gathered around her, also wanting to eat the grapes in Jiang Mi's hand.

Jiang Mi ducked back, reaching out to push away a sheep's head. She threatened, "If you dare to eat my grapes, I'll eat you. Roasted whole lamb, grilled lamb skewers, lamb soup, spicy lamb trotters."

Instead of scaring the sheep, it aroused her appetite.

I want to eat mutton.

Yang Jiahe reached out and patted a sheep: "Feed him a bite, and he'll go away."

Jiang Mi fed him a bite of grapes, and the sheep bleated a few times and left. The other sheep followed suit, leaving behind a few lambs to eat the grape skins.

Jiang Mi: "Is he the Sheep King?"

Yang Jiahe: "I guess so."

Jiang Mi finished eating the grapes, and the vines were also eaten by the lamb. She looked at the fat lamb, reached out and touched the lamb's thigh, and the lamb licked the grape juice on her hand.

Jiang Mi said, "Thank you for helping my elder sister. Next time you go to the county, I'll treat you to mutton soup and make sure you're full."

Yang Jiahe slapped her hand away and said, "Don't think about hitting on the lamb."

Jiang Mi: "Could it be possible to take advantage of Dayang? Tell me about it."

Yang Jiahe: ...

Jiang Mi found a stream

After washing her hands, she took out her notebook and began to outline her story. Her plan to make money was about to begin. She had been here for over a month, so she finally had plenty of time to write a story.

It has to be a story that suits this era. As long as it highlights the spirit of passion and dedication, it is a good story.

After she made an outline, she began to write the main text. She wrote several thousand words, a total of seven or eight pages, and then Yang Jiahe called her to go home.

Yang Jiahe: "A letter from home? It's really thick."

Jiang Mi: "No, I'm submitting an article." She implied that her pocket money was almost gone this time and she wanted to earn some extra money.

Yang Jiahe smiled, "Don't you know that the manuscript fee system has been abolished? But if your submission is accepted, you should be given a copy of the journal or some other souvenir."

Jiang Mi:!!!

There was no royalties in the 1970s???

Jiang Mi looked at the manuscript of several thousand words she had written and suddenly felt pain in her hands.

"I love □□ the most!"

She packed up her notes and stuffed the notebook into her bag. Her first money-making plan ended in failure.

Yang Jiahe: "If you're really short of money, you can sell the wild ginseng. It should be quite valuable."

Jiang Mi was alert: "Don't pay attention to my ginseng, I've already eaten it."

Yang Jiahe: ...

Jiang Mi thought about growing wheat in the space, but since she had no money, she went to the black market to sell the wheat.

It’s a bit troublesome to harvest and thresh wheat. It’s better to grow corn so that you can sell the corn cobs.

Now that we can control space at will, it is safe even if we go to the black market.

She followed Yang Jiahe and walked towards the team.

Little did she know that Yang Jiahe had also become suspicious of her. People living in this era would never think of making money by submitting articles. The prevailing view among people in this era is that there is no money to be made from submitting articles.

He looked back at Jiang Mi who was playing with the sheep horns behind him and smiled. These were not important.

Jiang Mi blinked: "Why are you looking at me? Are you attracted by my beauty?"

Yang Jiahe: "In my life, I will only be fascinated by myself in the mirror."

Jiang Mi: "We need a mirror now. Ask it who is the most beautiful person in the world."

Yang Jiahe: ...

“It might be difficult for the mirror to decide who is the most beautiful person, but you are definitely the most beautiful child.”

Jiang Mi glared at him, "You are the child."

Yang Jiahe perfunctorily said: "Okay, you are not a child."

The two of them

The sheep were brought to the fold.

They saw a commotion not far away, so they hurried to see what was happening. In the crowd, Zhou Dalong was running forward with his hands covering his head, followed by a group of chirping birds.

Jiang Mi was excited: "It seems to be a magpie? Did we disturb the magpie's nest?"

Many magpies were spraying feces at Zhou Dalong, some landed on his head, some landed on his clothes, and some landed beside him.

Everyone watched from a distance, afraid of being affected.

Zhou Dalong's mother Cui Lanxiang took a long stick and waved it at the magpies. A group of magpies quickly flew higher and turned around to spray shit at Cui Lanxiang.

Cui Lanxiang cursed: "If you can fly lower, I will kill you and barbecue you."

A group of magpies flew towards her, grabbed her hair with their claws, and then flew up, pulling out a lot of her hair.

Cui Lanxiang waved a stick to hit the magpie, and Zhou Dalong's grandmother, Grandma He, rushed over with a big broom and also hit the magpie.

Zhou Dashan shouted, "Zhou Dalong, did you touch the magpie's nest in the mountains? Return the magpie eggs quickly. Don't do anything. Let the magpie cool down."

Several old hunters also said: "There are many magpies in the mountains and they hold grudges. Why are you touching the magpies in the mountains? Don't hit them. If you kill a magpie, you will be in big trouble."

Cui Lanxiang swung her wooden stick even harder, and two magpies had already been knocked to the ground. Old Mrs. He said, "Dalong, come and pick up the magpies. We'll roast them for lunch." She swung her broom even harder.

The magpie also learned its lesson and flew higher, throwing stones at Cui Lanxiang and the other two.

Several magpies flew towards the mountains.

Yang Jiahe: "Going to get help."

Jiang Mi: "Just because you touched a magpie's nest? What if you touched a magpie's nest?"

Yang Jiahe: "If there are no magpies sitting in the nest, just touch it. If there are magpies sitting in the nest, get down from the tree quickly. If magpies chase you and scold you, just listen. They will ignore you when they have cooled down and will not follow you for long. Zhou Dalong should have not only touched the magpie's nest, he may have hit the magpie as well." He walked over and picked up the two magpies on the ground.

Both magpies had their wings broken and were fluttering in Yang Jiahe's palms.

Yang Jiahe touched the top of Xi Que's head and said, "I'll take you to recuperate later. When you're healed, we can go back to the forest."

Old Mrs. He shouted, "That's my magpie, give it back to me."

Yang Jiahe: "You have offended the magpie. What if the magpie gets angry and attacks our team indiscriminately?"

"I still want to eat meat

"Haven't you heard the old folks say you can't mess with magpies?" An old hunter shouted, "Hurry up and take your mother and grandmother to hide in the woods. The magpies are calling for help. You'll be sprayed to death by them soon."

He Zhaodi shouted, "Isn't it just like not being able to touch all the eggs in a bird's nest?"

The old hunter nodded: "You also know this?"

He Zhaodi nodded. She thought of the flower snake and her meat! She glared at Yang Jiahe fiercely and said, "Give me back my snake meat."

Yang Jiahe: ...

Jiang Mi couldn't help but laugh. She was quite curious about the words passed down by these elders, "Are there any other customs?"

The old hunter said seriously, "If you get lost in the mountains, kowtow three times, walk around three times, close your eyes, choose any direction and walk down, and you will find your way out."

He Zhaodi: "Is it true?" She actually believed it a little. After all, she was almost bitten by a snake.

The old hunter added, "Don't go too far into the mountains. If you run into wild boars or wild cattle, you won't be able to go anywhere."

Jiang Mi took note of it carefully.

Zhou Dalong and several others were still fighting with the magpie. Cui Lanxiang took a stone and smashed it against the magpie. Zhou Dashan directed everyone to take the stone.

Zhou Dashan shouted, "You're still throwing stones? You're really going to piss off the magpie... Hide quickly and stop trying to show off."

He wanted to talk about the Magpie God, but he couldn't mention it at this time.

Cui Lanxiang spat and scolded Zhou Dashan for meddling in her business. She simply couldn't believe that a few of them could not defeat these dozens of magpies. They could catch them one by one and eat their meat.

While watching the fun, Jiang Mi took out a grape and fed it to the two injured magpies.

The two magpies pecked and quickly finished eating a grape, then stared at Jiang Mi with their round eyes.

Jiang Mi took another one for them.

Soon, a group of magpies flew over from the horizon.

The old hunter said: "Why don't you run away? Are you waiting to be drowned by magpie droppings?"

Everyone quickly retreated, at least to stay away from Zhou Dalong and others.

Cui Lanxiang: "Oh my god, these damn magpies! Run away!"

The old hunter said: "Don't run into the house, run outside."

How should I put it? The biggest characteristic of Cui Lanxiang's family is that they refuse to listen to advice, insist on running home, hide in the house, and close the door tightly.

A large flock of magpies flew behind.

When they entered the house, they began to overturn the straw and tiles on the roof. One magpie could not do it alone, but so many magpies fluttered together.

In a short while, the three tiled houses of Cui Lanxiang's family were destroyed.

Flocks of magpies sprayed feces at the three people hiding in the room.

Cui Lanxiang and Old Lady He cried for their parents, with nowhere to hide, and then ran out together, running towards a place not far away.

Jiang Mi: "Isn't he running to your house?"

Yang Jiahe: "She can't even step into my house."

Cui Huifang yelled, "Cui Lanxiang, if you dare to run to my house, I will lead my men to tear down your house."

Cui Lanxiang didn't care about all these at this time. She was covered with magpie droppings, layer by layer. She had to find a place to hide, and it would be best if she could overturn Cui Huifang's house as well.

Cui Huifang was afraid that if she really got close to her yard, there would be manure everywhere, which would be disastrous.

She found a stick and hit Cui Lanxiang, but she didn't dare get too close for fear of being hit by magpie droppings. As a result, some droppings also got on her body.

She hit Cui Lanxiang's buttocks with one stick after another. She found that these magpies didn't specifically hit her and even avoided her. She understood: "These magpies treat me as a teammate. So I'll help them too. Jia Gong, go get a rope and tie this bitch up and hang her on the tree."

Cui Lanxiang couldn't fight back and was afraid of being tied up, so she ran away like a headless fly.

Unable to resist, Old Lady He found a bamboo basket to cover herself and endure the magpie's wrath underneath. She did not resist, and the magpie found it boring and ignored her.

Finally, Zhou Dalong and Cui Lanxiang also followed suit. A group of magpies left their droppings here, and then chirped around the yard for a while, as if cursing, and finally flew away with flapping wings.

Zhou Dashan said, "These bird droppings are good things. This afternoon, we'll have some people shovel them up and pile them up at the village entrance to water the fields." He then said to Old Lady He and the others, "You guys clean up and take a break. Don't mess with magpies anymore."

Of course, everyone had to pay a price for watching such a lively scene. Their shoes were covered with bird droppings, and their heads and clothes were more or less stained with some.

Xu Nian'er leaned forward and got her head drenched. At first, she was busy watching the fun and didn't feel anything. Now she rubbed her hair with her hands, which were covered with bird droppings. "Disgusting." She looked at Jiang Mi and Yang Jiahe: "Why don't you two have any?"

Jiang Mi: "I'm not rushing forward with my head stretched out."

Xu Nian'er just wanted to run over to take a look.

He Zhaodi stared at the magpie in Yang Jiahe's hand and said, "Do you want to roast or burn it? Give me one and I'll let the snake meat incident go."

Yang Jiahe: "Do you also want to be chased and scolded by the magpie?

These two magpies will be released back into the mountains after they recover from their injuries."

He Zhaodi rolled her eyes. Actually, she was just talking. She wasn't that hungry for meat right now and didn't dare to eat magpies.

She vaguely felt that the magpies here were a little unusual!

Everyone dispersed and they returned to the educated youth site to wash their hair, take a shower and change clothes.

The water used to water vegetables is fertilizer and will help the vegetables grow well.

Lunch consisted of two-grain flour pancakes and vegetable and mushroom soup, which was drizzled with lard. The pancakes were soaked in lard and eaten while they were still soft, followed by a bowl of soup.

Jiang Mi thinks mutton soup with pancakes tastes better!

Because I went to see the excitement at noon, I didn’t take a long lunch break and went back to work in the afternoon.

Half of the people in the brigade were assigned to shovel bird droppings. Cui Lanxiang's house had the most bird droppings, with a thick layer on the ground. Then there was the road from the village entrance to their house, where there was also a dense layer of bird droppings on the ground, and all of it had to be shoveled.

If you pile up fertilizer and water the land, you can produce a lot more wheat.

Cui Lanxiang's family can be considered as making a contribution to the team, so everyone has no objection to the extra work.

Jiang Mi was going to herd sheep, so the job of clearing bird droppings had nothing to do with her, so she headed towards the back mountain.

On the way, she met several aunts and sisters who talked to her enthusiastically and asked her to come to their home when she was free. They also told her that if she had any problems in the future, she could come to their home and talk to them. No matter whether it was fighting or swearing, their family would be the first to help.

This is the charm of money, Jiang Mi said, she will definitely tell you if there is anything.

When she reached the back mountain, Yang Jiahe had not yet led the flock of sheep here. She sat cross-legged on a rock and ate a handful of beef jerky. The lunch was not very oily and she was getting hungry quickly.

Her trouser legs had shrunk considerably during the night, her legs crossed like that! Had she grown taller? She quickly stood up and examined her trouser legs. They had shrunk to her ankles, where they should have been lower before.

She has definitely grown taller!

This discovery made her very happy.

People are never satisfied. When I first started wearing it, I thought it would be nicer to be prettier. Now I hope it would make me taller, with longer breasts and a longer butt.

She wants to be a beautiful woman with a curvy figure.

When Yang Jiahe came with a flock of sheep, he saw Jiang Mi bending over to look at her legs.

A group of sheep went into the back mountain and ate grass in the grass. Some were chewing leaves on the short trees. There was also a lamb that rolled up Jiang Mi's trouser leg. It was the lamb that licked the grape juice from Jiang Mi's hand in the morning. Jiang Mi quickly opened the lamb's mouth.

"You bit my trouser leg, I have to gnaw on your flesh."

Lamb opens mouth

Curl her fist with your tongue.

It's not the fist, it's the jerky inside the fist.

Jiang Mi: ...

She pinched the sheep's ears and said, "You eat grass, not meat. You are the most mischievous among the flock of sheep! From now on, I will call you Pipi."

This lamb is easy to recognize, with a lightning-like pattern on its forehead.

Pippi put his head into her pocket.

Jiang Mi patted its head and said, "That's too much! Yang Jiahe, you should take care of your sheep."

Yang Jiahe patted Pipi's neck and said, "Go play."

Pipi walked away, looking back every few steps. Jiang Mi asked, "Why do they listen to you so much?"

Yang Jiahe: "Maybe I'm just too good-looking."

Jiang Mi: ... She didn't believe it and changed the subject, "Are all the magpies here so powerful? They're quite different from the magpies outside! Is it just because magpies hold grudges that we have such a custom?"

Yang Jiahe said, "It's mainly because the mountain god in this area is the Magpie God, also known as the God of Joy. There's even a Magpie God Temple on the mountain. So there are so many legends about the Magpie God. It's said that in the past, if a child got sick, they would be taken to the Magpie God Temple and have the Magpie God take a look. Then, if the child licked the stone pillar in front of the Magpie God's door, the child's illness would be cured. During the famine in the 1940s and 1950s, the brigade had no harvest, and it was the Magpie God who guided the members up the mountain to find a wild wheat field, which helped everyone survive the famine. But those were all things that happened a long time ago, and now the Magpie God Temple has been destroyed."

Jiang Mi was curious: "Where is the Magpie Temple?"

Yang Jiahe: "It's right on the mountain. When the young soldiers came to destroy things, no one dared to stop them. The elders felt sorry for the Magpie God and didn't dare to go to worship him. Later, they stopped going there often. Now it's overgrown with weeds and it's hard to get through."

Jiang Mi continued to be curious: "Have you ever licked the stones of the mountain temple?"

Yang Jiahe looked at her with a half-smile and ignored her.

Because there was no money for writing in those days, Jiang Mi put her writing career on hold and spent her afternoons playing. The shadow of the Green Snake still lingered, so she didn't dare go into the grassy plains and only dared to play in the shallow grass.

She picked a lot of flowers and made a wreath. Just as she was about to put it on her head, Pippi ran over and ate a flower.

Jiang Mi patted its head: "You did it on purpose." She put the wreath directly on Pippi's neck. Pippi lowered his head and wanted to eat the flowers on his neck. He stretched out his tongue to lick it, but it was a bit difficult and he couldn't reach it.

It also attracted other sheep to eat the collar on her neck. No matter whether it was flowers or willow leaves, the sheep loved to eat them.

Pipi wanted to hide, bleating, but was eaten by other sheep.

And leaves, leaving a circle.

Jiang Mi hahahaha, let you be naughty! She braided another wreath, "Pipi, do you want more?"

Pippi bleated and rubbed Jiang Mi's hand with her little lamb horns. This time she didn't bite the garland, just like a child, as if she had just eaten the garland to attract her attention. She put the garland on her head and quietly took out a handful of grass from the space to feed Pippi.

After Pippi finished eating, he rubbed her palm even more happily.

The grass in space must taste better than the grass here.

Jiang Mi took a handful of grass from the space to feed it. After it finished eating, it kept asking Jiang Mi for more! Jiang Mi grabbed a handful of grass from the ground and gave it to it. It ate it, but it seemed a little disappointed.

Jiang Mi washed her hands and took out two bunches of grapes from her schoolbag. She gave one to Yang Jiahe and ate one herself, and gave the skins to Pipi.

As for Yang Jiahe, he doesn't spit out grape skins.

Pipi bared his teeth at him, probably asking why he didn't spit out the grape skins.

Yang Jiahe raised his leg and kicked Pipi. Pipi quickly closed his teeth and didn't dare to act naughty or arrogant anymore.

Yang Jiahe asked Jiang Mi to watch for a while, and gave her a whistle, asking her to whistle and call him if anything happened.

Jiang Mi guessed that he was going to satisfy his physiological needs, so she told him to go ahead and not to run too far. She promised not to peek because she was afraid of snakes.

Yang Jiahe took out a sachet and said, "This contains realgar, which can repel snakes." He also gave her a small bottle of ointment and said, "This is snake ointment, which is very useful for treating wounds."

Jiang Mi: "Did you prepare this for me?"

Yang Jiahe nodded: "I got it from Zhang Bazhen at noon."

Jiang Mi: "Did you ask Zhang Bazhen to check the magpie's wings? Did you connect them?"

"The wings have been attached, and it will take half a month to recover." Yang Jiahe said and left.

Jiang Mi thinks Yang Jiahe is very kind, especially to small animals.

Wearing the realgar amulet, Jiang Mi became bolder and followed Pipi around. About half an hour later, Yang Jiahe came back, holding two grass carps in one hand and a pile of dry wood in the other. The grass carps were all big, weighing at least two kilograms, which was bigger than the grass carps she had eaten before at the educated youth camp!

He put the dry firewood on the stone and walked to the stream with the two fish.

Jiang Mi ran over happily, and Pippi followed. They tripped over each other and fell down at the same time.

They were too far away, and Yang Jiahe couldn't help her.

Jiang Mi lay on Pipi's body, but she didn't get hurt. Yang Jiahe came over and helped her

Jiang Mi picked her up from the ground and put her aside before she had time to thank her.

Yang Jiahe had already carefully lifted Pipi up to check on him. "Are you okay?"

It turns out that he was dissatisfied with her for putting pressure on Pipi.

Pipi was hurt by the pressure and bared his teeth at Jiang Mi.

Jiang Mi: "Why are you running so fast? You can't eat grilled fish, and you tripped me."

Pippi continued to bar his teeth.

Yang Jiahe patted Pipi's butt and said, "Next time, pay attention to the road. Let's go have fun."

Jiang Mi felt that this was a hint at herself.

Yang Jiahe stretched out his hand, and Jiang Mi followed suit and covered his hand: "Look, my hand is broken, is it considered a work injury?"

Yang Jiahe took the snake ointment, grabbed the back of her hand, and applied a little bit of it to her. "If you don't apply some medicine, the wound will heal in a while."

Jiang Mi: ???

Yang Jiahe smiled: "I want a pair of scissors for you."

Jiang Mi took out a pair of scissors from her bag and handed it to Yang Jiahe. She watched him process the grass carp, scraping off the scales, tearing off the gills, and cutting open the belly. No wonder both fish had bulging bellies, full of fish roe. Yang Jiahe removed the other internal organs and left the fish bladder and fish roe.

Jiang Mi really thinks this person is suitable for family life!

Jiang Mi praised: "You are not only good-looking, but you are also so capable! In such a short time, you caught two fish."

No matter who is being praised, be happy.

Yang Jiahe lit a fire and started to grill the fish. Pipi came over to watch the fish, peeking his head in.

Jiang Mi was really looking forward to Pipi's beard being burned by fire, but unfortunately it didn't happen.

When the fish was almost done, Yang Jiahe sprinkled some barbecue seasoning on it, flipped it over and grilled it for a while, then handed one of the grilled fish to Jiang Mi.

Jiang Mi took a small bite. It was hot, but also very fragrant.

The grilled fish is crispy on the outside and tender on the inside, with crispy skin and firm and delicious fish meat inside. Add delicious barbecue ingredients and it is especially satisfying to eat.

There were just too many fish bones, especially in the tail, which was full of them. Jiang Mi couldn't eat such small bones, so she gave the tail to Yang Jiahe and left half of the meat on the belly for Miaomiao.

She ate the fish head herself. It was roasted until it was crispy and crunchy, and very chewy.

After finishing the fish head, she waited to eat the fish bladder and fish roe.

The fish bladder and fish roe were sprinkled with seasonings, and two wild chives were put in. Then they were wrapped in lotus leaves and covered with a layer of mud. They were thrown into the fire at the beginning.

This way of eating is called

There are not many ways to eat flower chicken, which makes Jiang Mi look forward to it.

After Yang Jiahe finished eating the fish, he dug out a large piece of earth from the fire, knocked off the mud on the outside, opened the lotus leaves inside, and found the fish bladders and fish eggs.

Also very fresh.

After it cooled down a bit, Jiang Mi pinched a piece of fish roe. It was a bit fishy, but also very delicious! "Next time we catch a pheasant, we'll eat it this way. I wonder if we can run into those two people who divided the spoils unevenly next time we go up the mountain. It would be great if we could pick up some more prey."

Yang Jiahe smiled and said, "So, on your day off, do you want to go to the county to eat mutton soup or go up the mountain to find game?"

Jiang Mi looked at the sky and said, "Maybe it will rain tonight. We can go hiking tomorrow."

Yang Jiahe looked at the sky and said, "It's getting dark, let's get off work."

It was getting dark and it was time to get off work. After driving the sheep into the sheepfold and locking the door, the two men returned to the village.

The sheep pen and pig pen are next to each other, and there is a cowshed in front. There will be someone on duty at night to look after the cows, sheep and pigs, which are the most precious assets in the brigade.

Just as they walked forward a short distance, a figure suddenly stood in front of Jiang Mi. He was holding a bunch of wild flowers in his hand and said to Jiang Mi lovingly, "Comrade Jiang Mi, you are just like this flower, so sweet, pure, and beautiful."

This man smelled terrible, his face was covered in bruises, and he looked greasy and ugly.

Jiang Mi couldn't describe her feelings.

It's as disgusting as stepping in dog shit.

No, it's more disgusting than touching a handful of dog shit.

Jiang Mi raised her foot and kicked Zhou Dalong. Her strength was not strong, so Zhou Dalong's body did not even shake. He fished out a few bird eggs from his pocket and held them out like treasures: "These are the bird eggs I picked out especially for you today. I heard that eating them can make you grow taller and longer. Come and try them."

Jiang Mi was angry: "Fuck, my eyes are dirty, I can't keep my eyes anymore, please give me a pair of clean eyes."

Yang Jiahe pulled Jiang Mi and shielded her behind him, then punched Zhou Dalong on the left cheek. Zhou Dalong, who was trying to be cool, was knocked away.

"Zhou Dalong, why are you so rude?"!
