Chapter 78 I didn’t touch it, my friend did
"How old is this second daughter-in-law? When did she come here to look for her relatives?" Luo Xinxin asked with interest.
The captain thought for a moment and replied, "About thirty-seven or thirty-eight, thirteen or fourteen years ago, at the beginning of winter. She wore a sheepskin coat. Her waist was tiny, not even as thick as my wrist, and her butt was round and plump..."
"Have you ever pinched it?"
Luo Xinxin interrupted him and asked, looking at the captain with a look full of suspicion.
The captain's dark face didn't change much, and he denied it calmly: "No, I heard it from someone."
Without Luo Xinxin asking, he took the initiative to say: "One time, the brigade showed a movie called "Railway Guerrillas". Jiang Danyan sat in front of me, and that man sat next to me and pinched my butt several times. I asked him how it felt, and he said it felt bouncy, more bouncy than his wife's, like a pig's bladder filled with water, biangbiang..."
The captain made a pinching gesture with his hand while speaking, and his 'simple' face looked particularly wretched.
"Skip the details and continue talking about the second daughter-in-law."
Luo Xinxin interrupted him. It was true that one cannot judge a book by its cover. This captain looked like an honest man, but he was actually a pervert.
The person who pinched the second daughter-in-law's butt must be himself, just making friends out of nothing.
"Um... where was I just saying? Oh, right, Jiang Danyan is incredibly pretty, with a tiny waist, a round butt, skin as white as snow, big, watery eyes, a rosy little mouth, and a delicate, white face. Her voice is so sweet, even sweeter than a bird's song, it makes my bones go numb..."
The captain became more and more excited as he spoke, his eyebrows were dancing with joy, his eyes were shining, and he would gesture from time to time.
Luo Xinxin was very suspicious that this old pervert had done more than just pinching his second daughter-in-law's butt a few times.
"That night, Jiang Danyan slept in my firewood room. In the morning, I got up and went to the toilet, which was next to the firewood room, and I saw her. She said her husband had just died and she had no children. Her in-laws bullied her, and her parents' family didn't accept her. She came here to stay with distant relatives and had nowhere to stay at night, so she slept in my yard."
The team leader obviously had a very clear memory of that morning, even remembering what Jiang Danyan was wearing and what she said.
"Where are her distant relatives?" Luo Xinxin asked.
"After he died, Jiang Danyan had nowhere to go, so she asked me to find her a man in the village, as long as she could settle down. It just so happened that Sun Laoer was still single, and they fell in love with each other, so they started living together."
The captain's tone was full of regret and a little jealousy.
"Why don't you marry Jiang Danyan?"
Luo Xinxin felt a little puzzled. This old pervert still had feelings for Jiang Danyan, and he was the first man Jiang Danyan met. Why didn't he marry him?
"I'm married."
The captain sighed lightly. He already had a child at that time and his wife was also very capable, so he could only give her to Sun Laoer.
Luo Xinxin curled her lips again. No wonder the country advocated monogamy. If polygamy were really allowed, there would definitely be many men who would be as uncontrollable as women shopping online when it comes to marrying wives. They would want to buy (marry) all the wives home.
The team leader then mentioned some suspicious things about Jiang Danyan, such as her inability to have children, using scented soap to bathe, applying face cream in the winter, using shampoo to wash her hair, her love of making new clothes, her never working in the fields, and her rare household chores.
"Apart from these, is there anything else suspicious?"
"Isn't this enough?"
The captain asked back, he felt that it was enough. If a woman had any of these bad habits, she would definitely be beaten. If she had all of them, nine out of ten times they would be broken up.
In other words, Sun Laoer is very soft-hearted and Jiang Danyan coaxes him like a dog. She spoils him even though he can't have children.
Seeing the team leader's look of disgust, Luo Xinxin finally realized that it was the 1960s in the rural areas of Northwest China. Many families used soapberries or wood ash to wash clothes and hair. Few people were willing to buy soap, let alone face cream. Many rural women had rough faces.
"I understand. I'll visit your village when the time comes."
Luo Xinxin is going to contact Jiang Danyan. Whether she is a spy or not can be determined with just one identification card.
"What would she do if there was something wrong with Jiang Danyan?"
The captain asked with concern.
"Of course..."
Luo Xinxin gestured at her neck with her hands, her tone cold and grim.
The captain was startled and felt reluctant, but it only lasted for a few seconds. Soon his expression became firm again, as if he had made some kind of decision.
Anyway, she is not his wife, so let her die. Power is what he is more addicted to!
"Comrade Luo, hurry up!"
When it was time to leave, the team leader urged her repeatedly, fearing that Luo Xinxin would not go.
Luo Xinxin was also very anxious to take off her hat, so she asked the team leader to go back to the village first and she would go over later.
After the captain left, she looked at the ten sheep with worry. It was unrealistic to slaughter them all, and the three small ones had no meat, so it would be a pity to slaughter them.
But if I don’t want to kill it, I have to keep it. There is only one room in the house, where can I keep it?
"I can herd sheep."
Daya happily picked up a lamb.
Finally, it was Erya who came up with a solution. "Keep the sheep in our room at night, and let Grandma Luo graze them during the day."
Herding sheep is simple. You just need to drive the sheep to the mountains and drive them back home after dark.
Erya drove ten sheep to the hillside to find Old Lady Luo, and Luo Xinxin followed her. Without her supervision, the old lady would definitely not work honestly.
Old Mrs. Luo sat in the shade of a tree eating biscuits with a kettle beside her. She had only cut half a basket of grass, and she looked as leisurely as if she was having afternoon tea in the back garden of her home in Shanghai.
"Have you finished six baskets of grass today?"
Luo Xinxin walked over quietly and suddenly asked.
"Oh my... I was so scared. How could you walk without making any noise? Your grandfather said he would come to help me cut the scalp at noon."
Old Mrs. Luo was so frightened that the biscuit in her hand fell to the ground. She looked at it with disgust for several seconds, but finally picked it up and blew on it several times before eating it.
There were not many cookies left at home, so she had to eat them sparingly.
Luo Xinxin was too lazy to care about the old couple's affairs. She pointed at the ten sheep and said, "From now on, you can cut grass while herding the sheep, and then collect two baskets of grass to feed them at night."
"How can I bear it? I'm old."
Old Mrs. Luo jumped up. Adding two more baskets of grass would be like taking her life.
"Then don't eat meat anymore."
Luo Xinxin looked at her coldly and ate meat more enthusiastically than anyone else.
"Then I didn't release the sheep. What if I lost it?"
Old Mrs. Luo's voice became softer. Not allowing her to eat meat would be like taking her life.
"Are you dead? You can't even keep watch over ten sheep? Anyway, if you want to eat meat, just lock up these ten sheep. You don't have to cut the two baskets of grass at night. You just take care of the sheep."
Luo Xinxin reduced the amount of grass by two baskets to prevent the old woman from being exhausted to death. She and Daya would just cut some grass when the time came.
"I see. Why are you talking so loudly? I'm not deaf."
Old Mrs. Luo agreed with a pout and even complained, but after meeting Luo Xinxin's cold eyes, she immediately lowered her head and behaved herself obediently.
Erya stayed in the mountains to teach her how to herd sheep. She still had two months before going to school, and she had already taught her how to herd pigs.
Luo Xinxin went to ask for leave from Director Lei.
"What are you doing outside? You are not allowed to ask for leave without serious business." Director Minefield said in a serious tone.
"It must be a serious matter. When have I ever done anything improper? I'm going to Sunzhuang to do something important."
Luo Xinxin didn't say anything about capturing enemy spies. It's still not certain now, so we can't say anything nonsense.
Director Lei curled his lips. He was going to castrate Master Pang yesterday. How could he be passing by at that moment?
