Day 1, village clinic.
Ma Laosan looked like an eggplant hit by frost, lying on the bed with his head drooped and humming.
There was a big lump the size of an egg on his forehead.
One of my front teeth is missing.
There was a piece of gauze wrapped around the crotch of his pants, so his legs could only be spread open.
"I say, Ma Laosan, how can you get yourself into this state just by guarding a warehouse?"
At the door, Zhou Huanghe and his son Zhou Xiaochuan walked in.
Zhou Xiaochuan had an annoying personality, and when he saw Ma Laosan's dignity, he laughed at him.
Ma Laosan rolled his eyes and said, "Your own butt is broken, and you still have the nerve to laugh at me?"
It's really like a crow falling on a pig!
However, he knew that now was not the time to argue with Zhou Xiaochuan, so he turned to look at the village chief.
Zhou Huanghe looked gloomy and asked, "What happened? Was there anything missing from the warehouse?"
But this is the most important time for me, whether I can make it or not depends on this period.
He didn't want any problems in the village.
"I...I seem to be possessed!"
Ma Laosan thought back to what happened last night, and the more he thought about it, the more bizarre it seemed.
I didn't see anyone, but I was beaten continuously.
He received a heavy blow to his vitals last night and fainted from the pain.
After waking up, he crawled and shouted for help.
Then he was sent to the health center.
"Bullshit, that's what you should say!"
Zhou Huanghe started cursing.
"I...I said something wrong..."
Ma Laosan also reacted.
What do you mean by possessed? This is feudal superstition.
If anyone hears this, he will be criticized.
Fortunately, he is Zhou Huanghe's confidant.
"I'm not possessed. I just went out to pee and fell down accidentally."
Ma Laosan said with a wry smile.
He didn't dare say that he came out to see Liu Qingyi.
Otherwise Zhou Xiaochuan would beat him to death.
"You fell like this just for peeing, you have kidney problems!"
"Doesn't your wife usually dislike it?"
Zhou Xiaochuan had a wicked smile on his face.
Ma Laosan was so angry that his teeth were itching.
With Zhou Xiaochuan's personality, if he was not the village chief's son, his legs would have been broken long ago.
"It's ok, as long as nothing is lost."
Zhou Huanghe was only in the warehouse. He didn't care how badly Ma Laosan was injured and just turned and left.
Wasteland.
Chen Jianan and Liu Qingyi were looking through the account book.
"This Zhou Huanghe is so bold!"
"Everyone knew he was greedy, but I didn't expect he was so greedy."
"He deserves to be beheaded!"
The account book records the amount of grain that Zhou Huanghe has "borrowed" from the village warehouse since he took office as village chief.
But he never paid it back.
Or they would use the autumn harvest to settle the accounts with the grain warehouse.
Or they would settle the account by paying their public grain tax to the government.
In short, with so many pieces, he was very greedy.
The villagers of Xiaoheyan Village were unlucky.
For every household, even having enough food to eat has become a problem.
Some people have suspected that there were errors in the accounts before.
But all the important positions in the village are held by Zhou Huanghe’s cronies.
The eldest son of the husband wears the same pants as him.
So the villagers could only endure it silently.
Now that we have the account book, it is irrefutable evidence!
"If the relevant departments intervene, Zhou Huanghe can be convicted, but the public side..."
Liu Qingyi is very clear about the operation of grassroots departments.
The more remote the place, the greater the grassroots power.
It can be said that the prince has the final say.
If he insists on protecting Zhou Huanghe, there will be nothing we can do to him.
"Don't worry, I have another way to deal with this matter."
Chen Jianan smiled slightly and put the account book away.
"It's meaningless for the two of us to develop the wasteland. Just take a rest. I will take care of it in the future."
Chen Jianan’s plan can only be implemented after moving to Zhou Huanghe.
What's more, Liu Qingyi's hand was still hurting and she couldn't do any work.
Although they have only been together for two days, Liu Qingyi now trusts Chen Jianan very much.
Chen Jianan asked her to rest where she was, left some dry food and water, and went deep into the wasteland.
This day he didn't have a slingshot, but used local materials to make a trap.
The prey killed by the slingshot could not be preserved for long, and he could not go back and forth to the town every day.
So we plan to catch them alive and then sell them in town.
There are two types of traps.
One method is to dig a deep hole, cover it with branches and leaves, and then sprinkle corn kernels as bait.
Another method is to fix the branch and use a rope to make a loop.
After Chen Jianan became rich, he became interested in surviving in the wild and hunting.
Very skilled at making traps.
Moreover, animals in the wasteland rarely have access to pure food such as corn.
It is very useful as bait.
At night, Guo Bing caught a live hare.
During this period, Chen Jianan cast a net and caught two crucian carps weighing more than one kilogram.
He grilled fish with Liu Qingyi and talked about everything, including literature, history, and the past...
Time passes quickly.
In the blink of an eye, it's already Zhou Yu.
Chen Jianan and Liu Qingyi have become "good friends" who can talk about anything.
Tell Liu Qingyi that he will not go to the wasteland tomorrow and let her have a day off.
Before daybreak he set out for the town alone.
Behind him, the sack was bulging, and from time to time a big bulge would appear. It was the hares and pheasants struggling.
All the fish caught these days were eaten, but the hares and pheasants were left behind.
After eating, Chen Jianan recovered quickly. He had gained 10 to 20 pounds, and all the weight was muscle. He felt even stronger.
At eight o'clock, we arrived at the town market.
This day is different from last time.
Last time it was almost noon and all the stalls were closed.
On that day, however, it was crowded with people, and the stalls were packed.
Chen Jianan turned around several times before finally finding an inconspicuous corner.
"Fresh pheasants and big, fat rabbits, come and have a look..."
Chen Jianan opened the sack and shouted loudly.
It’s not that you don’t know the goods, it’s that you compare the goods.
The pheasants with colorful feathers and the fat and big-eared hares immediately attracted a lot of attention...
Tang Yueyi got up very early the next day, and after having breakfast, she dressed up carefully.
In this generation, heavy makeup is not fashionable.
What's more, she is naturally beautiful. Just by fixing her hair and changing into a suitable outfit, she looks very beautiful.
"Yueyi, if that young man hasn't come yet, just buy an old hen.
"Your dad is still waiting to drink chicken soup to replenish his body."
Xu Peiyun asked her daughter who was looking at herself in the mirror.
"Oh, I see..."
"I didn't wait for Chen Jianan on purpose!"
Tang Yueyi's heart was exposed by her mother, and she explained guiltily.
"I didn't say that young man was Chen Jianan!"
Xu Peiyun smiled.
"Oops, I'm leaving!"
Tang Yueyi blushed and ran out of the door in a hurry.
Riding her brand new Forever bicycle, she began to search carefully.
She had come once yesterday, but unfortunately Chen Jianan didn’t come.
She was very disappointed and felt very unwilling.
I don’t know why, but I just hope to see that interesting person again.
There were so many people at the market that it was difficult to walk.
Tiny beads of sweat had already appeared on Tang Yueyi's forehead.
After walking for a long time, I still didn't see Chen Jianan.
There was disappointment in her eyes.
It seems that I can only buy an old hen... Will I never see him again?
Suddenly, Tang Yueyi discovered that a stall was surrounded by a huge crowd of people who were constantly shouting out prices.
This scene seems familiar.
She walked over with hope.
"Tang Yueyi!"
A familiar voice sounded.
"Chen Jianan!"
Tang Yueyi smiled happily.
Revealing two sweet dimples.
