"The county magistrate is so easy to deal with, and he organizes a tiger hunt in the mountains? It's not like killing a chicken, it's a man-eating female insect." Xia Qinghe's brother Xia Qingpi couldn't help but say something.
He now knows that his brother-in-law was bitten off a piece of thigh meat, and he still doesn't know how his sister is doing now.
"What you said, Qingpi, is not to let anyone go." The village chief felt that Qingpi was like a lump of elm wood, "Aren't you going to avenge your brother-in-law for being bitten?"
Qingpi thought to himself, who asked him to hit Qinghe? It was worth being taught a lesson by the tiger.
He is not so stupid as to go to the mountains to seek revenge on the female insect.
"Just let the villagers from Xiashan and other villages with dead people go. What does it have to do with our Shenshu Village? Our Shenshu Village has not been infested by the mother bug." The one who spoke was Mrs. Hu, Youmazi's daughter-in-law.
"Yeah yeah."
"Whoever wants to go can go, but I won't go anyway."
This was the first time that the villagers echoed Hu's words.
What does this big insect have to do with Shenshu Village?
The village chief is very meddlesome. In order to show his prestige, he is happy to be flattered or deceived by other village chiefs. He insists on getting involved and takes the safety of the whole village as the cornerstone of his progress.
"That big female insect is so scary. If anyone dares to go in, I don't dare to let my men go."
"Your man can't go, and the same goes for my man. My man has a bad waist. I'm already a widow, and I don't want to be a widow again."
"The same goes for my son. He rushed to me and broke his legs."
"The village chief will take his son, and I will prepare dry food."
…
For a time, the villagers, both men and women, were excited and shouting, and were unwilling to hunt tigers.
Village Chief Zhao waved his hand and shouted for silence. Zhao Xiaogui's gongs and drums were beaten again and again, but to no avail.
The village chief was so angry that his tooth ached.
Why are the people in Shenshu Village so low in consciousness?
"Now that the female giant insect has not disturbed our village, we feel that it has nothing to do with us, which is wrong. Think about it, the female giant insect is entrenched in Nanguan Mountain. Should we go to the mountain to cut firewood or dig for medicinal materials? No. If we beat it, we will harm ourselves." Bai Banban saw that his little boy, Village Chief Zhao Defu, was sweating because he was forced by the villagers. As a member of the villagers, he was the first to stand up and support him.
"Besides, someone's little baby doesn't know what's important and likes to run into the mountains. The adults can wear the baby's belt every day. For the baby's safety, we all have to listen to the village chief."
The white board coughed and continued unhurriedly: "Back then, we suffered from wild boars, and every household's food was ruined. We could only harvest 50% of the food that could have been harvested 100%. The big female bug was more harmful than the wild boar. , it hurts people, and if people are gone, there is nothing. Think about it, whether what I said makes sense."
Shiroban's words came from the bottom of his heart.
It’s not that the white-boarded man has high consciousness, he really thinks these reasons are the necessity of fighting tigers.
There is another one who has selfish motives in his heart.
The second and third children are all in the town, and they often take mountain roads when they come back. If they are taken away by a tiger, Lao Bai's family cannot bear it.
Furthermore, in the past, wild boars came down the mountain to hunt down Lao Bai's land and ruin it, just like they had a grudge in the previous life. He was afraid that this tiger would respect the wild boar's spirit and hunt down Lao Bai's people.
Therefore, he must be the first to agree to go up the mountain to hunt tigers.
Bai Banban all agreed with the village chief. Bai Dazhuang must follow his father and said, "I agree with my father and the village chief's views."
Mrs. Bai and Mrs. Zhen also nodded.
Xiao Fukuoka clenched his fists and echoed: "Fight the tiger."
Village Chief Zhao didn't know why, but when he heard Xiao Fuyuan shouting about killing the tiger, he felt that it would definitely happen.
Many elderly people in the village felt that what the white wooden board said was reasonable, and they showed approval on their faces.
But some people don't agree...
"Uncle Bai is getting stronger and stronger. At such an old age, he can create a daughter, let alone fight a tiger." You Mazi's daughter-in-law, Mrs. Hu, has a strange yin and yang attitude.
"Yes, let Uncle Bai take the lead. In those days, everyone could hunt wild boars, not to mention tigers." A young man took over.
"That's right, father and son are going into battle. There are many sons in Lao Bai's family. All the sons in the town are called. Two strong whites and three strong whites will go together." A young daughter-in-law in red flowers said while chewing melon seeds.
"What do you mean? My man is a scholar, a teacher, and a registered official in the imperial court. The county magistrate doesn't even dare to ask my man to hunt tigers, but you have arranged it here. Are you more patient than the county magistrate?" the other party asked. When Bai Erzhuang arrived, Eugene Gui couldn't stand any longer and jumped out to fight.
"Why, your man is not from Shenshu Village? Why do you let other men in the village go but your men don't?" the young daughter-in-law asked Eugene Gui.
"Just because of the disaster year, the county government gave priority to our village to distribute relief food for his sake. If your man can do this, let alone not letting him go to the mountains to hunt tigers, I will make a golden body and send it to your home." Eugene Gui said tit for tat.
The younger daughter-in-law was defeated and did not dare to speak.
In this regard, her man really couldn't beat Eugene Gui's man.
Mrs. Bai's eyes looked at Eugene Gui with admiration for the first time.
He is not so stupid as to have a rectum straight to the end and knows how to protect the men of the Bai family outside.
"Okay, stop arguing. After all, this is the Lao Bai family, a well-educated and sensible family. Look at how they can produce the first scholar in the village. The fifth child is about to be admitted as a child student and has given birth to a beautiful daughter." The village chief. I was moved to praise Lao Baijia, although it was a bit out of place.
"This tiger must be hunted. Brother Bai is right, hunting tigers is for everyone. We can't stay away from going up the mountain. Even if we don't go up the mountain, we still have to take the mountain road. Mother Big Insect, it doesn't matter whether you are from Shenshu Village or not. People from the village down the mountain will be merciful to you. The county government has issued a notice, and we will organize the manpower to go up the mountain tomorrow." Village Chief Zhao was very seductive.
"This matter is non-negotiable." The village chief firmly set the tone.
The noisy scene was temporarily quiet.
Everyone is looking at Nanguan Mountain. Can they really never go up the mountain?
Some men's faces became slack.
"How to fight this tiger? How to arrange manpower?" Bai Dazhuang asked.
"Of course, adult men from every family go there, mainly young and strong laborers."
Village Chief Zhao looked at Bai Dazhuang. A young man like Bai Dazhuang would be enough. With the young and strong labor force of the whole village gathered together, plus the labor force of several surrounding villages, one person could beat the tiger into pulp with one punch.
"Then my family doesn't have young workers, so there is no need to send anyone." Qian, the mother-in-law of Eugene Gui, breathed a sigh of relief.
Dad You is good at grinding, but not at hunting tigers.
You Mazi is the representative of their family. Anyway, the whole village knows that it will be You Mazi who will help them both in the future.
You Qingya disappeared into the crowd, her eyes darkened.
"By the way, this young master will also be a member of our village from now on." Village Chief Zhao pointed to A Zhen next to Xiao Fuyuan. If you are from this village, you must contribute to this village. His family is not here, so the caretaker There were people from the hospital who said, "Is it okay to have Xie Xiaolian in your family?"
A Zhen nodded.
The village chief was very satisfied and praised A Zhen.
How can a young master understand justice at such a young age? How can a young master think of the interests of the village when he first comes to the village...
Xie Xiaolian: "..."
"Okay, let's divide into two groups. One group will have Bai Dazhuang as the captain, and Dazhuang's father as the deputy. I think Xie Xiaolian has a lot of skills, so I will let Xie Xiaolian be the captain of the second group. I will be the captain. Deputy.”
Bai Dazhuang and Xie Xiaolian nodded and expressed their willingness to take on the responsibility of captain.
Village Chief Zhao was filled with joy.
"Okay, village chief, you divide the people into two groups. We will come here in the evening to discuss the regulations. Tomorrow we will go up the mountain. Those who have hoes will bring hoes, and those who have kitchen knives will bring kitchen knives. The tool belts are all complete." Bai Dazhuang helped the village. The director was doing the assignment work when he saw Wu Langzhong in his yard and shouted, "Wu Langzhong, follow behind with the medicine box on your back and do your best to save lives and heal the wounded."
Wu Langzhong said he didn't hear it. He was having fun discussing difficult and complicated diseases with Zhang Yangjing in the courtyard of Lao Bai's house.
"Also, let me emphasize that every household focuses on getting married and establishing a career. For example, in Bai Dazhuang's house, Bai Dazhuang is in battle, and he cannot represent his father. In his father's house, his father is in battle, which represents the two, three, and other people who are not married. Male."
Village Chief Zhao thought for a moment and changed his plan slightly.
It's not for the sake of Lao Bai's family, but because he's afraid that all the unmarried sons will go up, and he's afraid that he will be ruined by others all at once, and they will fight for him.
"Every mother-in-law has prepared clothes and dry food for our men. I don't know how many days we will be away this time."
