Without waiting for his reply, she pointed at the little tiger next to her and said, "I asked the little tiger to bring you some loaches. Take them home and raise them for eating tomorrow."
Ma Yingjie immediately put away his sarcastic attitude, happily rummaging at Little Tiger's small fish basket and boasting:
"Xiao Huzi is awesome, you are so amazing, much better than your uncle!"
His praise made the already shy little tiger even shyer. He didn't know what to say for a moment and could only smile foolishly.
The more Ma Yingjie looked at it, the more he liked it. He quickly took out a handful of White Rabbit candies from Han Muchen's pocket and handed them to him: "Brother, please have some candy."
Hehe, there is no way. He has fruit candies in his pocket. Brother Chen said that he walks unsteadily and is afraid of losing them. Fruit candies are cheap, so it doesn’t matter if they are lost…
Fruit Candy: Why am I so cheap...
Seeing that Xiao Huzi was shy, Li Youliang took the candy and stuffed it into his pocket, saying, "Hurry up and say thank you to your uncle."
The word "uncle" was emphasized particularly strongly. What brother? Does Ma Yingjie have any shame...
Ma Yingjie was not annoyed. He took the small fish basket with a smile and found a place to put it.
After almost everyone in the team had arrived, Li Zhenguo led people to light a circle of torches around the threshing ground. The light from the torches illuminated the sky red, which was a spectacular sight. Lu Wensheng and the other newly arrived educated youth had never seen such a scene before and were stunned for a moment.
"How is it? Our country is fun, right?" Li Youliang saw that everyone looked like they had never seen the world, and he couldn't help but show off.
Ma Yingjie and the others nodded hurriedly: "We have definitely never seen it."
Li Youliang raised his head slightly in a proud manner and pointed his chin at the dark weeds not far away:
"There were a lot of fireflies there. When we were young, the adults were threshing rice, and Li Aiguo and I would catch fireflies in the grass. Then we would go home and secretly cut a piece of mosquito net and wrap it up to make a small lantern.
After playing with fireflies, you can also catch katydids. You can make a cage with straw and hang it under the eaves. You can keep them for many days, but they are a bit noisy when you sleep at night...
We also slandered that we went to Uncle Ge's melon field to steal watermelons. To be honest, Uncle Ge must be sitting in the melon field right now. Do you believe it?
But sitting there is no point. He will drink a little wine when he looks at the watermelon, and when he dozes off, Xiaodouzi and the others will succeed..."
“…”
Li Youliang became more and more excited as he spoke. He wanted to tell all the embarrassing things that happened to him as a child and share them with his new friends. He always felt that these people from the city had never seen the world.
After he finished speaking, he realized that the three of them were looking at him with strange eyes. Li Youliang felt that these achievements that he was once proud of suddenly made him feel a little guilty. Why?
"I...why are you looking at me? Is there something on my face?"
Lu, Lu, and Han were indeed from the same pot. They all glanced at him in unison, and then turned their eyes to the sky:
“This moon is so bright!”
“There are so many stars!”
“This sky is so dark!”
Li Youliang: I have never been so speechless in my life!
He was feeling embarrassed when his father came to save him:
"Dear team members, our village's annual summer harvest has begun. Let's work hard. When the double harvest is over, we will slaughter the two big fat pigs in the team.
Now, everyone, hurry up and divide into teams and start working, so that you can go home and sleep at 12 o'clock. But let me be frank with you, if anyone dares to cheat, don't blame me for being rude!
Okay, disband!"
After Li finished speaking, there was a thunderous applause from the audience. Of course, it was not because our Xiangyang village chief was so talented in writing or how well he spoke, but mainly because... he was going to kill a pig! That was a pig~
As everyone knows, there are six big fat pigs raised in the pigpen of Ping'an Brigade. According to previous years' examples, two pigs are killed after the double harvest, and two more are killed during the New Year. The remaining two are kept for tribute... No, they are kept for handing over to the government.
What is worth being proud of is that among so many brigades in Hongqi Commune, only their village can slaughter pigs after the double harvest. Just for this reason, other brigades are very jealous of them.
Let’s get back to the point
After the village chief finished mobilizing the people, the team leader assigned them to small teams. The labor force of each team was basically balanced between men and women. The team leader of Lu Wensheng's team was Li Zhenguo.
The team members are: Lu Wensheng, Han Muchen, Lu Hao, Li Youliang, Aunt Caifeng, Aunt Li, Li Dazhu and his wife
Lu Wensheng looked around and found that they were all his own people. On the other side were the seven people from the educated youth point, plus Li Aiguo and Li Chunhua?
Damn! What kind of explosive combination is this...
Comrade Lu Hao, who was at the forefront of gossip, couldn't help but come over to gossip:
"No, is it really okay for these two to be in the same team? I don't know how the captain decided..."
Han Muchen also felt a little embarrassed. It would have been fine if he didn't know. Ever since he found out about this, he couldn't control his eyes. He always wanted to glance over there for no reason. Now he even doubted whether his self-control was failing...
Lu Wensheng looked at the two people with sparkling eyes. What was there to be embarrassed about? She felt like she was the civet jumping back and forth in the melon field at this moment. She was so happy that she was dying!
During this time, he did not forget to share his feelings with Lu Hao: "Haohao, have you ever learned "Young Runtu"? "
Ma Yingjie didn't know why the topic suddenly shifted to this, but he nodded quickly: "I learned it."
Lu Wensheng continued to ask: "Then recite the first paragraph."
Although Ma Yingjie didn't understand, he recited it obediently:
"A golden full moon hangs in the deep blue sky, and below is the beach sand planted with endless green watermelons.
There was a boy of about eleven or twelve years old, wearing a silver ring around his neck and holding a steel fork in his hand, who was stabbing a wild boar with all his might. But the wild boar twisted its body and escaped from under his crotch.
After a pause, he asked, "Sister Lu, we just finished eating watermelon. Actually, what I mean is, if you want to eat some, I'll go steal it with Xiao Douzi later..."
Lu Wensheng knocked him on the head helplessly and explained:
"I mean, we are now the badger in that melon field!"
Ma Yingjie suddenly understood, covered his head and nodded: "I understand, I understand... Hehe"
The two were happily eating melons when they heard Li Youliang's voice behind them:
"What are you two doing squatting there? Come over here and get to work!"
Lu Wensheng and Lu Hao looked at each other and shut their mouths tacitly:
I can't tell you anything. Everyone in the village knows that Li Youliang is a big mouth. Whatever he knows, everyone in the village will know it within half an hour.
Take crayfish for example. They used to be something that no one would even look at, but now they are hard to catch...
