Chapter 41 Locust Plague

 “No conscience, no conscience.”

"When your son is well-off, he will not care about his parents. It is a loss of conscience." Old Chen sat on the chair and wiped his tears, but when he saw Suisui's eyes, he suddenly seemed to be stuck again.

 Her, she is afraid of being struck by lightning.

In just two months, Mr. Chen lost a lot of weight.

 No one knew that since she was struck by lightning, she had nightmares every night.

 In her dream, Yan Suisui was like a devil, she would be awakened every night.

Yan Xiucai sighed and apologized to everyone with a smile, appearing sensible and elegant.

"Brother, let me take my parents back first. Today is a good day for you. My parents are old, so eldest brother should not argue with them. We are a family. Whether the elder brother is successful or the third brother is successful, we They all have to pull each other apart.”

“Third uncle, how can my parents believe your words?”

"You haven't been able to lift it with your hands or carry it on your shoulders since you were a child. Your parents earned the money for your education. But when my eldest brother wanted to study, you said he was stupid and it would be a waste of money to go to school. Why don't you teach him his studies?"

“After all these years, has Third Uncle taught me?”

"You are pulling each other back. It's obviously your parents who have been pulling you away. You are both scholars, and you haven't enlightened anyone in our family." Yan Lang said loudly.

Don't talk about a family, this made him sick.

Yan Xiucai immediately lost his composure, and Old Man Yan was the most disgusted to see who looked down on the third child, so he was about to scold him angrily.

"Erlang, believe it or not, Third Uncle has never thought of it this way." Yan Xiucai sighed softly and immediately took his family out the door.

Yan Laoer rolled up his sleeves and said: "Then the second brother has also gone back. I wish you the best of luck. Don't be angry with your parents... Come and visit your parents more often. Even if we split up, our relationship over the years has not been the same." It’s fake. Besides, my mother **** me off and made us sick. This kind of kindness will never be repaid in this life.”

The wife of Yan Xiucai glanced at Mrs. Lin and snorted disdainfully.

“Sister-in-law, Brother Chuan wants to study, but my husband-in-law has to prepare for the provincial examination, so we can’t waste his time.”

After saying that, he hugged the child and walked away.

Lin's eyes were so angry that her eyes were red, but today was a good day for the Yan family, so she couldn't shed tears.

 Hang Ji is preparing food with red eyes.

 Mr. Lin is a generous person and directly set up two tables.

 There is a table for men and a table for women.

The shiny sweet and sour pork ribs, the slightly non-greasy pork belly, and a stewed cured chicken with some dried radish rolls in it.

  The radish rolls were brought by Aunt Liu.

Lin made another large plate of braised pig head meat, with the pig in the water and Suisui's favorite braised eggs in it.

There was also a large plate of meat buns and steamed buns, and the steaming heat filled the room with the rich aroma of meat.

   Everyone was drooling when they saw it.

 Three years have passed, and the days of eating meat and drinking alcohol can be as satisfying as a dream.

 “Suisui, come to the village chief.” The villager paused and waved to Suisui.

"The village chief can't help it. Children, please don't make trouble with you. How can a child sit at this table? Don't upset her." Lin waved her hand, but as soon as the village chief raised his head, he hugged Suisui into his arms. In the right position.

 He touched Suisui’s head.

 He has high hopes for this child.

 Perhaps, she will be a bit of hope in this troubled world.

"From now on, Suisui can sit at whichever table I sit at." The village chief's words made the elderly Li Zheng's eyelids tremble.    In remote areas, the village chief can speak for himself.

  It is the king's law.

Yan Hansheng looked at his daughter blankly. He was sitting at the end and his daughter was sitting at the top.

 I feel proud and embarrassed at the same time.

  A group of highly respected old people were sitting in the main room, and women and children were sitting at another table in the kitchen.

"It's better that your family is living a good life. You don't have to be spoiled by your mother-in-law, and you don't have to squeeze in with your brother-in-law. It will be wonderful to make money and spend it yourself in the future." Aunt Liu was full of envy.

Her husband died early, leaving behind only a son, who was raised by a family and suffered from famine.

Why.

“Brother Yan is considerate and sensible. You are endlessly blessed.” Mrs. Lin smiled and gave her a piece of elbow meat.

"Is Brother Yan in the **** team? With thirty kilograms of food per month, you two can feel more at ease. By the way, I left a bowl of meat and a big elbow for Brother Yan. Remember to take it back later. "Ms. Lin winked. As for the old house, her husband didn't even mention it, so she wouldn't ask for trouble.

 “You keep it for health, your belly is more than four months old, right?”

Mrs. Lin touched her belly and said, "I'm keeping it. After I was kicked out, my life has become more peaceful."

 She has gained a lot of weight.

 Aunt Liu agreed when she saw that she was really comfortable.

It took more than half an hour to finish the meal, and the old people did not dare to drink more. They will collect grain tomorrow, and this moment will determine whether they will have food in the second half of the year.

The village chief has already reached an agreement with the villagers. After harvesting the grain, each household will pay one-tenth to the village maintenance team.

“Village chief, the food is not full now. Wouldn’t it be better to wait another half month?” Some old people felt pity. The rice is now heavy, which makes people happy to see it.

 The village chief waved his hand.

"Everyone should be more alert tonight. We have to collect grain tomorrow, so we can't make any mistakes. I asked people to inquire and found that bandits have been encountered in several surrounding towns. I'm afraid they are really barbarians..." the village chief said. Everyone felt cold all over.

“The weapons we snatched can also be seen to be well-made and extremely sharp, which are usually found on the battlefield.”

"Our village has survived the disaster, and the harvest is good now, but we are afraid that the enemy will come again. We must train harder every day, and only if all the people are soldiers can we survive. Besides..." The village chief paused.

  The village chief always feels very uneasy when he thinks of the locusts Suisui mentioned.

The meal lasted until the afternoon. Suisui stood at the door and looked up at the sky.

“It’s really strange. The sun is shining brightly at noon. How could it be so dark? It doesn’t look like it’s raining.” The village chief muttered as he went out.

Suisui pursed her lips and said, "Let's harvest early tonight."

 The village chief staggered and almost knelt down for her.

  I was groggy from drinking, but now I am mostly awake from the wine.

“Little Ancestor, you can’t say this nonsense, are you serious?” By accident, he followed his grandson and called him Little Ancestor.

The village chief’s lips were trembling. Hearing this, are there going to be locusts tomorrow? ? ?

The village chief's vision went dark, and Yan Hansheng hurriedly stepped forward to help him.

"Village Chief, what's going on? Get up and have a rest. We'll go back later. I'll ask the doctor to come and take a look..." Yan Hansheng was far away and didn't hear what Suisui and the village chief said clearly.

The village chief gritted his teeth and waved his hands while sweating profusely.

"Hurry up and call someone, bring the guys with you, start harvesting now, and harvest overnight. When anyone has finished harvesting, go to Linshui Village to help. Be sure to collect all the rice into the granary tonight!" The village chief's voice kept trembling, something big was going to happen. , something big is going to happen!
