Chapter 176: Evil Will Be Rewarded
This was the first time Gao Mingcheng had entered such a deep forest. Even though he ran very fast, it was already past six o'clock in the evening when he went down the mountain and returned home.
It was not yet dark, and a large patch of orange-red clouds floated in the west, embellishing the slightly gloomy sky.
The fiery clouds were gorgeous and ever-changing, but also short-lived. In just over ten minutes, the sun completely set, and the clouds, having lost their light, were like being forcibly stripped of their colorful clothes and returning to their simple attire.
Gao Mingcheng just sat in the yard, first gulped down a large bowl of water to quench his thirst, and then started to eat.
Although I had a roasted rabbit in the mountains, I had consumed too much energy and was now starving.
Xuanyuemei stood aside and looked at him, her face full of helplessness. She wanted to say something, but her lips moved and she closed her mouth again.
Forget it, let him eat first!
Gao Mingcheng finished all the food in one go.
Seeing that he had finished eating and had a satisfied look on his face, Xuanyuemei could not help but complain, "It's fine that you go to the mountains every day, but why did you stay there all day today? I cooked porridge in the morning, but you didn't come back to eat. I cooked rice at noon, but you still didn't come back to eat!"
"Black tigers know to run back home when they are hungry. Don't you know that?"
Many beautiful girls were angry and compared Gao Mingcheng to Hei Hu.
Hearing the mistress calling his name, Hei Hu hurried over, sniffed the scent of the host, and then looked a little anxious.
It smelled a very dangerous smell from its male owner.
It didn't know what it was, but it was instinctively afraid.
"Woof woof!" Black Tiger called to Gao Mingcheng, seeming to be worried about Gao Mingcheng.
Gao Mingcheng laughed and reached out to touch Heihu's dog head. At this time, he heard Duomei snort coldly, so he said: "I met a tiger in the mountains. In order to avoid it, I took a long detour. You don't have to worry about me. I got a roasted rabbit in the mountains for lunch. Uh, I don't have time today. I'll go buy fertilizer tomorrow."
"What? You encountered a tiger? There are tigers in our mountain? I've never heard of it! Are you okay?" Xuan Duomei, who was originally angry, heard that Gao Mingcheng encountered a tiger in the mountains. She no longer cared about being angry and only worried about Gao Mingcheng's safety.
"Don't worry, I'm fine. I encountered it in a very deep forest. The mountains are rich in resources, tigers don't come down the mountain, and the villagers don't go into the mountains, so naturally they don't know there are tigers in the mountains." Gao Mingcheng said calmly, and then instructed: "I'm only telling you about the tigers in the mountains, don't tell anyone else."
"Okay." Xuanyuemei didn't understand why she was not allowed to tell anyone, but she nodded and said, "I've already bought the fertilizer from the cooperative, so you don't have to go there again. Don't go into the mountains tomorrow, just have a good rest!"
At the end, his tone became a little tougher.
Gao Mingcheng grinned and agreed.
I am really exhausted today, I'd better stay home and rest for a day tomorrow!
As for the black bear cubs and the South China tiger in the mountains, they can only rely on their own luck. Anyway, Gao Mingcheng can only guarantee that he will not target them. If he encounters someone else hunting them, he can help out.
Because he was too tired, Gao Mingcheng didn't go to the reservoir to take a bath. He directly fetched a bucket of water from the well, then walked to the corner where the gardenia tree was planted, took off all his clothes, and then rinsed from head to toe, washing off the dirt and sweat on his body. This was his bath.
Seeing his heroic way of bathing, many beauties rolled their eyes secretly, but their cheeks felt a little red and hot!
After a good night's sleep, Gao Mingcheng felt that his hollowed-out body had recovered. He performed a set of boxing moves in the yard in high spirits, and then went to the kitchen to cook porridge.
He rummaged through the cupboard and found that there were not many snacks in it, so he thought about going to the cooperative to buy some snacks that could be stored for a few days, such as egg cakes, peach cakes, French cakes, biscuits, etc.
Next time he goes into the mountains, he must bring some dry food, because no one knows whether he will stay in the mountains for a whole day.
If the situation did not allow, he might not be able to go hunting and barbecue at all and would have to go hungry.
Gao Mingcheng, who once went hungry, said that he never wanted to be hungry again in his life.
After the rice in the porridge was cooked, Gao Mingcheng added a handful of firewood and stopped worrying about it. He just used the remaining fire in the stove to cook the porridge until it was thick and soft.
He took a hoe and prepared to go to the nearby fields.
In recent days, he spent all his time in the mountains and didn't take care of the land. But it was obvious that Xuanmei was a hard-working person, so the vegetables in the land were well taken care of, with only some extremely vigorous weeds and vegetables snatching water and nutrients.
Gao Mingcheng waved a hoe and dug up a clump of cowgrass, exposing its roots to the sun. Only in this way could the grass be killed.
He reclaimed a lot of wasteland and planted a lot of vegetables, the most common of which was naturally sweet potato. Now the sweet potato vines have grown lush and green. In a few days, the vines will have to be turned over. During the process of planting sweet potatoes, the vines need to be turned over two or three times.
If the vines are not turned over, the roots that grow from the vines will penetrate into the soil and produce very small sweet potatoes, and no large sweet potatoes will grow from the main root system.
In the process of turning over the vines, it is inevitable that the vines will be torn off. The villagers will then take the broken sweet potato vines to feed the pigs.
Gao Mingcheng doesn't raise pigs, but he can raise cows and sheep, so there will be no waste.
He looked at the crops in the field and was in a good mood.
At this time, he heard some movement coming from the old village, so out of curiosity, he dropped his hoe and walked towards the old village.
This place is a bit far from the old village, but precisely because of it being far away, he was able to reclaim wasteland near his home.
When Gao Mingcheng walked over, he heard Aunt Huang crying, and there were people pointing and talking next to her.
When I walked closer and listened carefully, I learned that Huang Yuan was publicly tried yesterday and was sentenced to execution by firing squad after the public trial.
Rural areas have their own way of disseminating information, so on the second day of the public trial, someone ran to Aunt Huang's house and told her the explosive news.
When Aunt Huang heard that her nephew had killed someone, she was only slightly shocked. But when she heard that he was publicly tried and executed, she could no longer bear it.
But the first thing she asked was: "What about my brother? Is my brother still the deputy political commissar of Red Star Farm?"
The person who came to tell the news laughed and said, "He has a son who is a murderer. What else can this deputy political commissar do? Of course he lost his job and said he went back to his hometown."
"Oh... my poor nephew..." Aunt Huang sat down on the ground and started crying.
The nearby villagers gathered around and watched the excitement. At this time, several villagers with a strong sense of justice immediately cursed: "Why is he so miserable? Isn't it his wife who was killed by him who is miserable?"
"Bah, you Huang family are so mean!"
"That's right, the Huang family must have had bad offspring, otherwise there are people in our village who beat their wives, but none as severely as Gao Ren!"
The onlookers were talking in a few words, and their words were all blaming Aunt Huang.
Someone else said to Gao Ren's father, "Gao Hu, you married the wrong wife! If you had married a good wife, you would have been able to give birth to a good son!"
The villagers were protective of their own people. Everyone knew that Gao Ren had beaten his wife to death before, but no one planned to make a big deal about it or report it to the police or anything like that. Now that they heard that Aunt Huang's nephew had killed someone, and the person he killed was his own wife, they immediately put the blame of Gao Ren beating his wife to death on Aunt Huang.
At this time, they would not think that Gao Hu also beat his wife. Gao Ren saw his father beating his mother since he was a child, and when he grew up, he naturally followed suit.
Therefore, the root of Gao Ren’s evil lies with Gao Hu!
Gao Mingcheng knew it well, but when he heard the villagers say this, he couldn't help but sneer.
After hearing this, Gao Hu believed it to be true. He immediately kicked Aunt Huang and cursed her for getting herself into trouble.
After being kicked, Aunt Huang did not dare to hide. She just covered her face with her hands and cried bitterly.
From beginning to end, Gao Ren hid in the house and did not come out.
When Aunt Huang was being beaten, her son Gao Ren never stood up to protect his mother. When Gao Ren beat his wife, Aunt Huang never stood up to protect her daughter-in-law. She just stood by and made sarcastic remarks and watched the fun. Sometimes she even deliberately provoked trouble and ordered Gao Ren to beat his wife.
In this environment, Gao Ren's wife couldn't bear it and was beaten to death.
Gao Mingcheng saw through the character of this family and felt fed up with it. He stopped watching the fun and turned away.
Evil will be punished. If people do evil, they will be punished sooner or later!
