He paused, and the blush on his face slowly dissipated, returning to his frosty look, his face changing like facial makeup.

"No, there's not much money. I'm not used to asking lesbians to pay. Besides, we are still educated youth in the same village. We shouldn't be so clear about it..."

"..."

Look at this familiar excuse.

Xu Xiaoyu smacked his lips, thinking back on how weird he had been all day today, a bold idea came to his mind.

"Cheng Zhiqing."

His heart skipped a beat, and he looked up to see Xu Xiaoyu smiling at him, her clear eyes full of insight. Before he could panic, she changed the subject lightly.

"It's almost time now. You wait for me here. I'll go to the supply store and come over. We'll go back to our hometown together later."

"..."

I couldn't tell whether it was disappointment or relief.

Xu Xiaoyu turned a few alleys and arrived at the place. Before she got close, she saw an anxious woman. When she saw Xu Xiaoyu, her eyes lit up. She rushed over and took the child away. She relaxed when she saw that he was okay and sleeping soundly. Take a breath.

"Are they all sold out?"

"...It's sold out. The items are very popular. More than 100 kilograms were sold at once..."

The woman looked at her face quietly, as if she was worried that she would default on her debt. She glanced at the child in her arms reluctantly and backed down in a low voice.

"I don't need as much as ten pounds and three cents...just one cent is fine. I just want the promised meat..."

"Don't worry, it's as much as you said. I won't default on your debt."

After forgetting the money and giving the meat, the two agreed on a long-term cooperation. The woman relaxed a little. She thought that she would no longer have to live a life of fullness and hunger. Tears rolled in her eyes. If there were not so many people on the street, she would They all wanted to kneel down.

She was married from the north. Less than two years after her marriage, she ran away with her only daughter because she couldn't stand the abuse from her husband's family. But what kind of job could she, a woman, find in the county?I am not as strong as a man, and I have no academic qualifications. I am so confused that I finally have some money on hand, and I can finally buy food for my daughter.

"Were you not followed when you came out?"

Xu Xiaoyu was a little curious. She was also dressed in disguise and selling pork. Why was she being targeted as soon as she came out?

"There were indeed a few men staring at me when I was selling meat, but I reacted quickly. After I finished selling, I hurriedly turned down a few alleys and left. There were many people and they didn't catch up with me..."

Sure enough, professional matters should be left to professionals.

After making an appointment for the next meeting, Xu Xiaoyu and Cheng Zhou rode their bicycles home.

She almost broke her butt along the way before she saw the village entrance. Just when she wanted to get off her bicycle to show off, she found that there was no one on the field ridge.

It’s strange. It’s the time to do farm work. Why is there no one there?

Cheng Zhou also noticed something. The two looked at each other and rode their bikes to the old locust tree used for important events in the village. Sure enough, they saw a large number of villagers surrounded inside and outside, and there were even many people watching. Lively educated youth.

The noise was irritating.

What happened again?

Yang Wanwan was the first to spot Xu Xiaoyu and Cheng Zhou. Although she was surprised why the two came back together, she was even more surprised that she actually rode a bicycle.

"Xiaoyu, have you bought a bicycle?"

"Yes, I just went to the county town today to change it. I won't have to suffer the consequences of bullock carts anymore... What happened in this village? Why are there so many people around?"

Yang Wanwan touched the shiny bicycle curiously, with a hint of envy in her eyes, and answered her question smoothly.

"It's the man named Zhao Shenghui who is imprisoned at the west end of the village... I have just arrived. I don't know what happened. I heard from others that he stole the pigs raised in the village and was caught while eating them. Now the village chief estimates We need to have a meeting..."

As soon as he finished speaking, a harsh loudspeaker sound came from the crowd, which was the voice of the village chief.

"Everyone, be quiet! Peng Dashu, on behalf of everyone in the village, I ask you, did you really see Zhao Shenghui sneak into the pig pen in the middle of the night and steal two piglets?"

Xu Xiaoyu frowned and looked over. In the middle of the crowd, Peng Dashu's eyes were wandering, and he nodded with a sly look, his tone was very indignant.

"No, I saw it with my own eyes! This old man stayed away from his residence in the middle of the night and sneaked around the village. Fortunately, I had a sharp eye and caught Zhao Shenghui on the spot making a fire to stew meat in the field..."

It's one thing to know, but it's another thing to hear it with your own ears.

Everyone was so angry that those who couldn't bear it almost fainted. If the village chief hadn't been taken into consideration, a few strong men would have rushed forward and punched Zhao Shenghui to death. The women also slapped their thighs and cried.

"It's really terrible... What's the point of letting such a person live in our village? Our old Fang family was just waiting to share some meat during the Chinese New Year, and now they're all gone..."

"We can't let people like this go! We only have two pigs and two cubs in our village. I originally thought of raising them for another half a year to share some meat with the adults and children. Who knew that this shameless old man could do such a thing? !”

"Village chief... why are you still listening to his explanation? Let's tie him up quickly and ask about the piglet's whereabouts! Maybe he hasn't finished eating yet!"

"A man who suffered a thousand cuts...why is this not a thing..."

Compared to the angry villagers, the educated youths were quite calm.

Originally, the distribution of meat in the village had nothing to do with them. In the past, if they wanted to eat meat during the Chinese New Year, they could only get work points in exchange for it, so the villagers were not as sad as they were and watched as if they were watching a trick.

The village chief was also one or two older. He took a puff of dry cigarette and looked at Zhao Shenghui who was beaten and silent on the ground, and felt angry in his heart.

There were two piglets missing inexplicably in the village. He was heartbroken more than anyone else, but he still had to ask questions no matter how heartbroken he was.

"Tell me why you would do such a thing..."

Before he finished speaking, Peng Dashu quickly interrupted.

"What else could it be for? You're greedy and you're taking advantage of the darkness! I didn't expect you to be caught by me. Village chief, if you ask me, I should beat such people to death with sticks. You can report this to the piggy above." If you don’t come, you won’t be relieved at all…”

As soon as these words came out, some extreme villagers started to boo.

"That's right! This kind of person should be beaten to death! It's him who makes our family unable to eat meat during the Chinese New Year! We don't even know how we will survive this year..."

"Village Chief, if you want to be a good person, you have to ask everyone for their opinions! No one has cared about Zhao Shenghui's life and death these years since he came here. What do you have to be afraid of..."

With the angry villagers on one side and the silent Zhao Shenghui on the other, the village chief sighed, shook the ashes from his cigarette, sat on a chair and smoked for a long time, but still shook his head.

"People in this world are not animals to be slaughtered like cattle and sheep. I cannot decide whether they live or die...Zhao Shenghui, tell us honestly if there are any piglets that have not been killed. If so, take them out now."
