Tian Gui looked at the two people leaving and sighed: "Hey! The people here are so nice, we came here at the right time!"
Tao'er Niang came over with water and looked at Xiao Man and Er Rui: "Hurry up and tidy up the house. You can also go and help Xu Gen have a home!"
Several families help each other with their work, and when one family finishes it, they rush to help others.
Tian Gui knew in his heart that although he said he was helping the village chief defend the land, village chief Jiang was not in vain.
I had borrowed a lot of food and money from Village Chief Jiang before.
Although they said they should help each other in the group, village chief Youjiang already owed a favor for borrowing food, and now Errui Xiaoman came to help the family with work without even taking a bite of food. The couple felt very guilty.
"Hey! From now on, I must pay more attention to Village Chief Jiang, and I must work harder on the grass in the ditch."
There are rabbits at home, and the three children usually pull weeds in the fields in Jiangcun and keep the crops clean.
People in the village have been busy these days. Jiang Zhi's land is half a month late for the second crop, so it is not busy yet.
There was nothing going on in their own fields, and Er Rui and Xiao Man were not idle either. They helped this family and that family, helping to pick up corn from various plots.
It is not easy for people who lack physical strength at home to move these things back.
Jiang Zhi also came down to help.
Xu Genyou's family has a lot of land and a lot of work to do. The women break off the corn and send it to the fields, while the men are responsible for carrying it home.
Li Laoshi didn't want to do heavy work, so he led the old mule to carry the grain, and walked slowly and leisurely.
Just like that, when they arrived at the field, Li Laoshi was not busy filling bags. Instead, he chased a surprised rabbit: "Hey! This fat rabbit is adding food!"
Although Xu Genyou worked in the fields every day, rabbits would inevitably come to eat the corn.
Jiang Zhi came out with half a basket of corn on his back, wiped his sweat, and yelled at Li Laoshi: "Li Laoshi, if you don't want to work, go to the village and guard it, so that no one can steal it by the way."
Xujia Village relies on official roads. In the past few days, every household has piled corn sticks outside their shacks for fear of being stolen.
Li Laoshi chuckled: "Sister-in-law Jiang, someone is here. Who dares to come to the village to steal things? Don't worry!"
Not everyone in the village goes to the fields, there are always people who stay at home and watch.
Staying at home, in fact... Jiang Zhi is worried about those who stay at home.
Food can not only be eaten, but can also be exchanged for money, which is money that is lying in front of you in vain.
Food is people's life.
Now each family only has a few shacks, and the food taken back can only be stored like this. If someone has evil intentions, there will be a great opportunity.
In the past six months, Jiang Zhi has been suppressing the village, and the village has been relatively peaceful. Don't trust human nature at any time, let alone in the midst of famine.
Would Li Laoshi not have thought of this?
Of course he knew, but he just ignored it and ignored it.
The food in the village is not Mrs. Jiang's food.
"Go back! Go around the village. If anything happens, I'll ask you."
Jiang Zhi chased away this sneaky person.
The old mule knew how to follow the loader without being led by anyone. Li Laoshi was just a fish that slipped by when he was working, so he might as well be put back to watch the door.
Li Laoshi was not upset when he was expelled by Village Chief Jiang, and left in a hurry.
Although it is not tiring to lead a mule, it still has to go all the way uphill and uphill. It is tiring and hot. It is not as good as wandering around the village.
Just as Li Laoshi left, Mrs. Tian bent over and came out carrying a big basket filled with corn: "Auntie, there isn't much left in the field. You should go back and rest after a long day!"
Pi Shi also came out with Baomi on her back, her hair all messy, her face flushed and said: "Auntie, you are old, just let us do this!"
Her family, Xu Gensheng, was a member of the group. Xu Gen had a family breaking corns and naturally wanted to help. She also came with her. At this time, she also spoke carelessly, not afraid of the elder Jiang Zhi's anger.
However, Jiang Zhi is considered older among this group of women, and of course the older Liu family is still there.
Jiang Zhi did not argue with the Pi family and the Tian family. The plot of land he was on at this time was the last one. There was indeed no need for so many people to break it in the field, but people needed to transport it home quickly.
She packed her backpack and headed back.
Just after walking a few fields, I bumped into a little girl running over in a panic.
This is Xu Genyou's little daughter, only seven years old. She had been picking up the corn that had fallen out of the field.
"Chunxi, why are you running away?" Jiang Zhi saw her frightened face, and her braids fell away, one by one.
When Chunxi saw Jiang Zhi, she immediately stopped and said hurriedly: "Grandma Jiang, I want to find my mother and milk!"
"Oh, they are still in Xiaojianzi Field. They will be taken back soon. You don't need to look for them anymore."
Jiang Zhi asked casually. He took the first step, and the women behind him would carry some back. In fact, there was no need for Chunxi to run around calling people in vain.
But Chunxi said in a tearful tone: "My father wants my mother to come back quickly. My aunt brought people back to get cotton and corn."
"What? Who did you say would get the things?" Jiang Zhidou said because he heard wrongly.
"It's the little aunt. She came with several people and said that our family collected her food and wanted my father to return it to her!" After Chunxi finished speaking, she wiped away her tears and ran into the mountains crying.
She couldn't understand why her aunt and uncle could come and get food without doing anything, even though her aunt and uncle had already left, and the land they had left behind was cultivated by her family.
Jiang Zhi was also angry. He was the village chief of Xujia Village. Did Wang Xiaoju really not regard the village chief as an official and wanted to lead people to steal food blatantly?
I was angry in my heart and felt the wind at my feet. Ignoring the fatigue on my body, I quickly walked back to the village.
Before anyone could get close, they heard bursts of noise.
Someone was yelling and yelling: "Genbao, tell me yourself. When we separated, did you say that I would plant the land and give the food to my mother to support her in her old age?"
This was Xu Genyou's voice, and soon someone else echoed: "Genbao, you are also a man who pees standing up. If you are teased by a woman for a few words, you will turn your back on her words. You are so thick-skinned! It’s much thicker than our calf, which is only a few months old.”
That mean voice is Li Laoshi.
No response was heard from Xu Genbao. First, the young woman cursed in a sharp and arrogant voice: "This is my Xu family's business. What does it have to do with you, a migrant?"
You eat and drink with me, live in other people's houses and eat other people's food. It's a dog that I took in in Xujia Village. Dogs pick up mice and meddle in other people's business. If you don't behave honestly, get out of here, or I'll tear your skin off. "
Oops! Jiang Zhi wanted to say something powerful. He didn't chase Li Laoshi. Someone had overtaken him as the village chief first.
After passing a shack in a few steps, the situation on the field was immediately revealed.
With the corn sticks falling on the ground, Xu Genyou and Li Laoshi stopped a group of people with wooden sticks. The leader was Wang Xiaoju, who was also gesticulating!
