Cao Manfu looked gloomy and stood motionless in the courtyard.
Cao Shijian calmed down and asked carelessly: "Second uncle, what are you thinking about?"
Cao Manfu was so angry that he had not set out yet. Seeing that his stupid nephew came to his door, he immediately pointed at his nose and scolded him: "You are a weakling, you just go to the Shili Brigade to beg for food every day instead of doing the collective work. You still want some?" Don’t you have any shame? If you continue to behave like this, you might as well just change the food relationship! My old Cao family will treat it as..."
Cao Shijian: "Really? Second uncle, are you serious? Then you can write me a letter of introduction?"
With eyes full of little stars, he rubbed his hands and jumped up to Cao Manfu in two or three steps, as if he was trying to pressure him to write a letter of introduction right now.
He did not forget his good brother: "You also write a copy for Mao'er, and we will go together!"
Cao Manfu: "..."
Did this unfortunate guy really not hear that he was scolding him?
He kicked Cao Shijian aside, shook his hand, turned around and walked out.
Seeing people still gathering outside the hospital, he roared angrily: "What are you looking at? If you are greedy, go to the Shili Brigade to beg for food and see if they can give you a mouthful of water!"
After saying that, he gasped and left with a heavy breath.
The villagers smelled the fishy smell of wild boar meat and refused to let it go.
The harvest of the Victory Brigade was not good this year. A lot of the grain was rotten in the ground due to heavy rain. They did not receive much grain. Coupled with the swine fever, they could hardly taste meat during the Chinese New Year this year.
Now that they saw so much meat, each of them looked like wolves with green eyes, unwilling to leave even if they just smelled it.
In the cold wind, several people quietly followed Cao Manfu, including Qian Sanbao's father.
In the yard, Wu Genmao picked up Cao Shijian, who was being kicked around, and pulled him into the house.
After closing the door tightly, Cao Shijian rubbed his buttocks and asked Wu Genmao: "Mao, have we completed our mission?"
"It should be forgotten," Wu Genmao pondered and replied, "Didn't Teacher Lin say that it would be enough to let them know that we shot the wild boar... Don't we already know this?"
"My blood has just boiled, how can it be over now!" Cao Shijian complained with curled lips.
"Okay, pack up quickly, we have to go!" Wu Genmao picked up the baggage he had just packed and motioned to Cao Shijian to leave quickly.
"What to do with the meat in the pot?"
"Didn't Teacher Lin tell us to just leave the meat and food alone? Just listen to her!"
"Do you want to take the meat with you?" Cao Shijian looked at the uncooked meat on the stove eagerly.
"Ah... Throw it away and it will be useless. Just bring it with you. It doesn't take much effort."
"Okay! I'll take it!"
It was getting dark, and the people who were waiting outside the courtyard to smell the smell finally couldn't hold it any longer. They didn't know who was the first to take a step. They pushed open the wooden door and entered the courtyard.
The door was kicked open by several feet, and the meat on the stove was empty. The meat in the pot was still cooking, but the water was almost dry and the fire was almost extinguished.
There was no sign of Wu Genmao and Cao Shijian in the kitchen, and no one cared where they went. The eyes of those people were shining, and they reached out to grab the meat in the pot as if they were not afraid of being burned.
Soon, the meat in the pot was gone.
Those who didn't grab the meat focused on the meat in other people's hands...
On the dark mountain road, Wu and Cao carried baggage and meat on their backs and headed towards the Shili Brigade under the moonlight.
In Cao Manfu's house, several men gathered together to smoke, and each of them almost broke their teeth.
"Damn it, how can their Shili Brigade be so lucky? They can kill a herd of wild boars, these people are so good at it!"
"Why are we fighting? One of those things would disturb half of the village. It must have been a wild boar that stepped on the ice and made a big split, so they picked it up ready-made!"
"Damn, these bastards are really..."
Cao Manfu listened to the envy in the complaints, waved his hand and said: "Okay, don't study this matter, just pretend it's nothing, keep your mouth shut, don't talk nonsense when you go out, do you understand? "
Qian Sanbao's father raised his eyes and yelled, "Why? Why does everything belong to them? Our mother-in-law sons are still squatting on the fence! Why do they eat meat?"
"Then what do you want?" Cao Manfu said with a dark face, "The wild boar can't kill them, what else can you do?"
"I don't care!" Father Qian patted the edge of the kang, his eyes widening, "I can't make it easy for them anyway!"
Cao Manfu sneered: "Okay, you have the ability, you are a man, you can just burn down their warehouse! Then let them destroy the things in the match factory, and even compensating the whole village to the factory is not enough! Let their family be ruined. !”
Father Qian's breath was stagnant and his face turned red.
He clenched his fists and yelled: "What am I afraid of? What am I afraid of? I'm going to burn their whole village!"
Next to him, a man whose son was sent to the police station after digging through the wall of an educated youth site grabbed Qian's father and said, "Old Qian, you Biao, the Three Treasures have already gone in, why do you still want to get yourself in?"
Several others also tried to persuade them.
But sometimes people can't persuade. The more others persuade him, the more energetic he becomes.
Father Qian shook off everyone's hands, picked up a freshly opened pack of matches on the kang table and rushed out.
"You bastard!" Cao Manfu tried to chase after him, but as soon as his foot hit the ground, he stumbled. He said "Ouch", covered his leg and sat down on the ground.
"Brother Lao Cao!"
Several people in the room wanted to help him, but Cao Manfu waved him away: "Leave me alone! Chase him back quickly, don't let him do stupid things!"
Several people responded and ran out one after another.
It's just that they weren't very fast. Even though they knew Qian's destination, they still chose to spread out and look for him.
When they were alone, they all grinned.
"Huh... Why are you stopping him? If anything happens, he'll be responsible for it himself. Why don't I take advantage..."
Cao Manfu waited for them all to go out and immediately stood up from the ground.
He patted the ashes on his pants, sat back on the edge of the kang, and lit a cigarette.
Aunt Cao opened the door and came in. Looking at his virtue, she curled her lips and said, "Just make a loss!"
Cao Manfu didn't take it seriously and snorted: "What's wrong with me? What's wrong with me? What did I say? I was angry. Besides, didn't I stop him? Even if the police came, they couldn't say a word about me!"
Aunt Cao curled her lips and stretched out her hand to twist his arm: "Hey, what's going on with Cao Shijian's little shriveled calf? Why don't you bring us some meat? He's not afraid of dying of old meat!"
When he mentioned this silly nephew Cao Manfu, his head hurt. Just as he was about to speak, Cao Dayue ran in from outside.
Under the kerosene lamp, Cao Dayue's face was covered in blood.
Aunt Cao was startled and quickly went to hug her daughter to see where she was injured.
"Father, mother! Killed someone!"
"Don't worry! Speak slowly! Who hit you?"
Cao Dayue was so frightened that she trembled, tears fell down, and her lips trembled as she muttered: "He, they were snatching meat, and they just... got into a fight for some reason... and killed people. There was a lot of blood..."
Aunt Cao finally saw where Cao Dayue's injuries were - her head was broken, but there were no other injuries, which was a blessing in misfortune.
She turned back to Cao Manfu and said, "Go quickly! Go and have a look!"
Cao Manfu also stood up. He walked a few steps outside, suddenly stopped, and came back to sit down.
"What are you doing? Come over and take a look!"
"Silly old bitch! No one can see who is who in the dark. Didn't I go there looking for a beating? What about the older guys, how can we share a bite..."
