079 Shanglian Village 2
Although Xu Zhongliang is not a real ruffian, he is a person who dares to start. After all, he is a literate hooligan. He really talks about the methods, but he doesn't lose to people like Huang Hongcai who are used to running the rivers and lakes.
Last year, it was not a single village in Shanglian Village, but several, but it was only the worst in Shanglian Village. Last year’s harvest in these villages was basically wiped out by a storm, and the county government was only exempted from taxes. Each family gave some food back, but it was definitely not enough. Fortunately, the villages that were less affected by the disaster were not able to do it like Shanglian Village.
Most of the villagers’ money is used to rebuild their houses, and there is no money left to buy food. If it weren’t for the charity of some big families, it would not be able to support this year. It hasn’t started yet, and I don’t know if it can be Stick to the harvest season of summer grains.
At night, in a farmyard at the west end of Shanglian Village, the two of them had just finished their gruel, and their mother said to their son Mu Jiande: "My son, my mother took Xu's job today and helped them dye some fabrics. Life will be easier after that, and you don’t have to go to the pier to work hard anymore."
"Mother, why did the Xu family hand over the fabric to our family? Are we doing this?"
"You, every family in our village has it, and even the Xu family came out of the dye. Let us dye the white cloth. One cloth will give ten cents. Now, every family has given two, and said, After the dyeing is finished, I will give the cloth again so that everyone can do it in June of this year. Doesn't it make sense that I want to help everyone? The second master of the Xu family is really a kind person!"
After hearing this, Mu Jiande smiled and said: "So, at the beginning, the old man of the Xu family transported a lot of grain to our village. Even with the help of the second man of the Xu family, the child would still work at the dock. The five pennies in Japan are always enough to eat, and it will be fine after this period of time has passed."
"Oh, it's suffering for you. Originally, there was some money in the family. Father and mother planned to do a happy event for you and Cai'er this year, but who ever thought, alas!" Mu Jiande's mother couldn't help but think of this. , Tears also followed.
Mu Jiande’s father was injured by a beam of the house, and later died. The family that had been good, just left, repaired the house and performed funerals, which really emptied the money of the Mu’s family preparing to marry a daughter-in-law. .
Seeing his mother's sadness, Mu Jiande also comforted him: "Mother, don't be sad. Although my father is gone, I still have a son. This son will support me."
Looking at her son, who was already in his early twenties, his mother was also pleased to wipe away the tears, smiled at him and said, "My mother is at peace with you."
"Hey, that is, my son will let my mother live a good life."
"By the way, son, you go see if there is still food for Aunt Six and their family, if not, you can bring some to them."
When my mother said about the sixth aunt, Mu Jiande also immediately agreed: "Hey, my son will wash the dishes and go."
"Well, you are a mother, go now and get the rice."
"Well, that son will go." Mu Jiande finished speaking, took out a cloth bag, packed a few catties of rice, and went out.
Aunt Liu is not a relative of their family. The Mu family has taken good care of their family. That's because the daughter Cai'er of Aunt Liu’s family grew up with Mu Jiande. Now she is almost eighteen. This year the wedding was held for the two of them, but who would have thought of such a thing.
She and Cai'er are the only members of Aunt Liu's family. Cai'er's father has died of illness for three years and left their wives. The people in the village also took good care of their family, but this time, they couldn't afford it, let alone take care of them. Fortunately, Mu Jiande's help would prevent them from going hungry.
Three days later, eight people in black came from Shanglian Village. They did not dare to go in now, because there were dogs in the village. It was still early. They had to wait and wait for the early morning to start their hands. Each of them took it. I made a basket with a lot of short torches, all of which were soaked in oil. Not only that, but also iron wires were nailed to the torches to ensure that they wouldn’t roll off the roof after being thrown in. Today’s Shanglian Village, except A few of them really have money, but the rest of the houses have thatched roofs. As long as you throw the torch, this is basically done.
Because it is near the seaside and the sea breeze blows, it really needs to be lit. The fire burns fast, but the fire shouldn't hurt many people. There is time for people to run out.
"Brother, are we really going to burn this Shanglian Village?" one of the people in black asked.
"Why, you can't do it? Remember, if we don't do it, others will naturally do it. This is what we do."
"But... Brother, this Shanglian Village is miserable enough. If we let the fire go, there will be no way for the people in this village to survive."
"Hey, I said Qilang, why are you such a mother-in-law today? There are officials here, so do you need to worry about it?"
"Okay, what the big brother said." In the end, Qi Lang still didn't say anything again. He also knew very well that even if his group of people didn't do it, there would be others who did it. This kind of disaster could not be avoided at all.
But another person said: "Big brother, it's not false to wait for money. I'm sure to do it. But who made this matter? I will ask him to trouble him in the future." New 81 Chinese network update the fastest computer End: https://
"Okay, Bet Niang's bullshit, to be honest, anyone in Yuyao doesn't know that Shanglian Village is miserable. Now it is called setting fire to the village. You think that Laozi feels better. Or if we don't do it, someone will do it. , I used to eat this bowl of rice, do I need to take care of it? Now people also know that this is an offensive thing, not only wearing a cloak, but also wearing a veil, who knows who it is, Okay, everything is ready, wait a minute, let's do it."ァ新ヤ~⑧~1~中文网ωωω.χ~⒏~1zщ.còм
After midnight, eight people put all these small torches into the bamboo tube next to the basket. After they were all lit, four groups of people quickly ran across the village, and each time they passed a house, they would head towards the roof of the house. Throw out the torch, and just like that, within less than a cup of tea, all the houses of more than 80 households were lit, and the fire was getting bigger and bigger thanks to the force of the wind.
Mu Jiande was still dreaming, but was suddenly awakened by the barking of a dog. When he woke up, he noticed that the house was on fire. He also hurried to his mother's room and dragged her out. In the courtyard, Mu Jiande didn't stop in a hurry, and hurriedly fetched water to put out the fire, but the fire was too strong to be extinguished at all. Now, the high temperature generated by the fire is extremely difficult to approach.
His mother took Mu Jiande out of the hospital, and then said to him: "Da Lang, hurry up, go to Aunt Liu's house."
Upon hearing this, Mu Jiande couldn’t take care of that much anymore. He ran towards Cai'er’s house. He was really afraid of an accident at Cai’er’s house. Now, many villagers have been discharged from the hospital, and the fire is getting more and more serious. Wang, there is no respite at all.
When Mu Jiande saw Cai'er pulling Aunt Six out of the yard, he really felt relieved. Anyway, as long as people are around, it's easy to handle.
"Ahaha... this is the goddamn's doing it, it's really hard to die..." Aunt Liu cried and wanted to run home, Cai'er almost couldn't help it.
The home is gone, and the things at home are gone. This has to make Aunt Six feel sad. He really wants to go back and grab some things.
"Mother... don't do this, Cai'er please." As soon as she cried out, Mu Jiande grabbed Aunt Liu, and Cai'er even hugged him when she saw him. As he burst into tears, she didn't know how to live in the future. (End of this chapter)
