Chapter 163: The Old Village Chief’s Youthful Recklessness
"These piglets really change every day. Xiao He, you must have a solution!" Liu Chunye looked at the five piglets fighting for food in the pigpen with a smile. He casually touched their backs with his hand, and felt the strong skeleton under his palm, which made him even happier.
"I see that you are a scholar after all. You know much more than us who only know how to farm. Uncle, it's the end of the year now, everyone has meat to eat, right?" Haozi, who was following behind him, felt relieved when he thought that his two dollars were saved.
"Haha, I can't guarantee that." When Liu Chun heard his nephew's words, he remembered what Jiang He said before, that the probability of eating meat on the day was very low.
"Ah!" Haozi showed a hopeful expression and looked at the piglet with resentment in his eyes.
"It's all your own fault. I gave you ten dollars to buy two half-grown piglets, but you did it just for the sake of saving a little money." Liu Chunye had heard about this from Jiang He before, so he wanted to buy some half-grown piglets so that they could be raised until the New Year and be a good meal for everyone. But his nephew was smart and bought some piglets that were obviously too big to be raised.
"I just want to help save money." After being cheated, Haozi went back to settle the score with the grandson, but the grandson ran away. Later he found out that he was directly tricked by someone else. Don't let him catch that bastard.
"Hehe——" Liu Chunye looked at his nephew with disgust in his eyes, but when he looked at the piglet his eyes were full of smiles.
Because these pigs are considered public property in the village, after finishing their farm work in the past two days, some villagers began to spontaneously collect grass for the pigs after hearing that the piglets could survive.
The educated youth team here helped to pile the pig grass into a makeshift shed. Yu Zhengming walked over to Jiang He and said, "Deputy Platoon Leader, when will the dozen or so sheep mentioned above be delivered? The weather is so hot now, and if we cut too much pig grass, it will probably rot."
Jiang He wiped the sweat off his head with his arm and looked at Liu Chunyi. "Village Chief, what do you mean?"
"I called yesterday and they said that the batch of sheep will be delivered in the next two days, but you shouldn't expect too much." Liu Chun'e showed helplessness on his face.
"What's going on?" Gao Youhui was passing by and heard their conversation.
Liu Chunyi showed a bitter look on his face. "When I was young, I was young and hot-tempered. I offended someone. Just a while ago, I met him when I went to review and approve. So I was thinking that the sheep sent here might not be very good."
"Village chief, I didn't expect you to be so young and frivolous? Can you tell us how you offended him back then?" Gao Youhui's eyes lit up immediately when he heard this. He especially liked to listen to the stories of the older generation. He especially wanted to know the story behind the village chief that was revealed some time ago.
"At that time, I was also young and energetic. I joined the army when I was young. There was a team leader in our team at that time. He used rules to restrict us all day long and he especially liked to tell tales. I was not convinced at that time. We were all guys, 17 or 18 years old, so I and several comrades put a sack on him and beat him in the middle of the night. Although he knew it was us who beat him, we had no evidence." When Liu Chun said this, there was a smug look on his face, and he smoked the pipe in his hand faster.
"Wow, you are so awesome, village chief! You even dare to hit the squad leader?" Gao Youhui exclaimed in surprise.
"Later, the war was won. I thought we would never meet again, so I secretly beat him up with a few of my good friends. Then I retired from the army. But I didn't expect to meet him again after so many years." Liu Chunye said this and sighed again.
