Doomsday Grain

Grandpa nodded tremblingly, clutching his chest and looking out of breath.

The village head repeatedly fed him water and comforted him, and scolded the Gao family for being inhumane while comforting him.

But looking at the old man's appearance, it doesn't look like he can correct the Gao family in person, this matter can only be done by himself.

Although it's a bit difficult, but you have to drag grandpa over there, who is to be counted if grandpa goes to someone's house with anger?

"Uncle, you go back first, don't be too angry, I'll go for you. These things are all belongings, and you are over 80 years old. It's not better than nothing. Don't you have a grandson? It's all good. "

Grandpa nodded tremblingly, thanked the village chief repeatedly, got up and walked out slowly.

The village chief and his wife sent the old man to the door, making sure that the old man was fine, they looked at each other, and the village chief prepared to go to Gao's house to see.

In fact, if it was the two sons of the Gao family, the village chief still had something to do, but the old lady was notoriously unreasonable. Before her grandson was killed by hailstones, he could see that by extorting 5 yuan from Lin Qian You can't reason with them.However, Mrs. Gao relied on her age and could not blame the old, even if she was unreasonable.

When the village head walked to Gao's house, he was actually not sure whether he could ask grandpa for an explanation. If there was a trouble, the village head would be very embarrassed.

But things have happened, we can't ignore them, we can only take one step at a time.

Grandpa turned around and entered the alley, his back straightened up immediately, he stopped crying, and he stopped trembling.

When I got home, I took out the fruit that Lin Qian had picked before. The fruit was kept cold with an ice pack, so even if I took it out for a while, it wouldn't cool down.

Grandpa felt the temperature of the fruit, and went out with a small basket containing the fruit contentedly.

After going out, I ran to the entrance of the village, looked around twice, and saw a group of children playing in the mud.

Grandpa sat on the freshly dried stone beside him, and he didn't dislike the cold, and waved to the children: "Come here, children, Grandpa will give you some fruit."

The oldest of a group of children is only in his early ten years old. There is a ravine at the entrance of the village, and they just play with mud after the rain.

The younger ones forgot what the fruit was, but the older ones' eyes lit up when they heard it, and they ran over in a few steps, one person ran over, and the rest followed suit.

Grandpa looked at their little dirty hands, took out tissues from his pocket, and distributed them to wipe their hands first.

The handkerchief paper has a scent, and the children were reluctant to throw it away after wiping their hands, so they put it on the tip of their nose and smelled it for a long time.

The village here is not well-developed, coupled with the natural disasters in the past two years, these children have almost forgotten what a good life looks like, and these scented paper towels are rare things.

Grandpa checked that their hands were clean before handing out the fruit to them.

Now that the sun is out, it is still very hot when the sun is shining. The fruit is chilled with an ice pack, which is very refreshing.

The children held it in their hands, and their faces were all smiling.There are still a few houses in the village with fruit trees. Although there are not many fruits, they can satisfy your hunger. But this coolness is very rare. Because of the total power outage, the refrigerators in the canteen are empty, let alone cold drinks.

The refrigerator is not used, so there is nothing to eat. I haven't eaten much cold food this summer.

These children are all small, and there is nothing to be polite, and they can't wait to stuff them into their mouths. This precious fruity flavor makes every little face of them smile.

A little girl spoke first: "Thank you, Grandpa."

Grandpa smiled, reached out to touch her little head, and gave her two more fruits.

"Good! Grandpa likes good children the most." Grandpa smiled kindly.

The other children saw that they said thank you and gave two more, and they rushed to say thank you. Grandpa gave each child another one. After the distribution was over, there were only two fruits left in the basket.

Every child has two, only the little girl has three.

A five or six-year-old child stretched his head to look inside, and asked expectantly, "Is there still grandpa?"

Grandpa sighed: "The remaining two are for no one, so I will eat them, Grandpa."

Grandpa picked one up and took a bite, seriously, sour.As we get older, especially when there are plenty of fruits, we actually prefer to eat sweet ones.I ate too many good things in He Yangxuan's space, because the environment is harsh and the small and sour fruits are actually not my grandfather's favorite.

Looking at the disappointed little faces, grandpa wiped away his tears and said, "It's not that grandpa doesn't want to give it to you. In fact, grandpa has prepared several catties for you. Grandpa likes children. But...cough, grandpa wants to give it to you." All the fruits of my family have been stolen, so Grandpa can only give you this."

The older child hurriedly asked, "Who stole it?"

Grandpa pointed in the direction of the Gao family: "It's the Gao family. They went to the mountains to cut firewood, but I confiscated their food and let them go without money. In the end, they stole my wood and cut down my fruit trees. So Not only is this the amount of fruit that grandpa gave you this year, but it will only be like this in the future. Otherwise, each of you children will be able to share at least three or four more fruits. You are all growing up, and you should eat more delicious food, yes wrong?"

All the children looked at each other, and one of them muttered, "The Gao family is really bad!"

There are only one or two households with the surname Gao in the village, and there is only one family with the surname Gao in the direction grandpa points to. The children often walk around the village, so they know who grandpa is talking about.

Grandpa wiped the corner of his eyes with his hand, and tears came down again: "My fruit tree! If you want to eat it, grandpa wants to eat it too. But the fruit needs to be exchanged for food, so I can only keep a little bit for myself to eat and give you a taste. This If another fruit tree dies in the coming year, we will have nothing to eat, and my family will almost run out of food."

Grandpa is talking nonsense with his eyes open, just looking at his body, the average young man in the village may not be as heavy as him.

After hearing such a delicious fruit, they would no longer be able to eat it, and the children got angry one by one, and began to mutter and say that the Gao family was not good.

A child said angrily: "I will never play with Gao Zifeng again!"

The other children echoed. Grandpa didn't want to implicate the Gao family's children in this matter. He said, "It has nothing to do with the children. How old are his children? It's his grandma, who is unreasonable and bullies our family to steal things honestly. When you say her Just lie on the ground and blackmail people. My fruit!"

The children comforted grandpa one after another. Grandpa was surrounded by a group of children, slowly showing a smile, and the children chatted with grandpa in a hurry.

In fact, the children are very simple, and they like grandpa when grandpa gives them fruits to eat.But this innocence is also cruel. They simply distinguish between good and evil in a person, and sometimes they hurt others the most, they may hurt themselves or others.

For example, strangers can follow if they give a piece of candy, and another example is that when someone looks ugly, they think it is a bad person who speaks ill at each other.

Grandpa went home after playing with the children enough. A group of children gathered together and talked about how bad the Gao family was.

Although it is taking advantage of the children's innocence, let them know in advance that it is better to stay away from the old lady Gao, maybe when the old lady blackmails people into addiction and focuses on this group of children.

Grandpa finished here, carried the small basket, ate the fruit and went home.

For the rest, there is no need for grandpa to come forward.

The grandfather who came home poured himself a cup of cold tea, and took two mouthfuls to quench his thirst. The smile on his lips seemed to be plotting the world.

At this time, Mrs. Gao's house exploded.

The village chief came to help grandpa to ask for an explanation, so is Mrs. Gao a good person?He denied it flatly, even though there were freshly eaten fruit stones on the ground at home, he still argued that the daughter-in-law brought them back from her natal home.

The village chief found a fruit tree whose roots were soaking in water in the kitchen. It can be said that the evidence is conclusive, but Mrs. Gao just refused to admit it, and sat there and started spitting.

"My God, I can't live anymore! My little grandson has not been long, and someone came to bully me, an old woman! My family is not dead yet! Why do you put shit on my head Ah! That fruit tree is clearly my daughter-in-law's filial piety to me, so how could it become a stolen item! The old Lin's family just didn't have any good ones, not to mention killing my grandson, it's because our family is a thief! Can't live! Can live No more!"

The old lady sat on the ground and cried miserably while swearing at the street. Her two sons were disgusted with shame. The two daughters-in-law blushed and helped them up. The old lady grabbed the hand of the eldest daughter-in-law: "Tell me quickly! Did you take it back Yes! This is what your mother brought for me to try!"

Who can cut down the tree as a gift?

The daughter-in-law's face was flushed, and she didn't know what to say.

Mrs. Gao said a few words and scolded a few words, and finally fell back and passed out.

Of course the village chief knew it was a fake. This kind of people only know how to do it. It is unreasonable to cry, make trouble and hang himself.

Boss Gao looked at the village chief with some embarrassment: "This..."

The village chief frowned coldly and said, "You know what's going on in your heart. I don't need to talk about this kind of thing."

This matter has been done and done, and the mother's attitude is there. If she admits it now, Mrs. Gao may make trouble.Boss Gao has no shame in his heart, but it's not easy to admit it.

"I wonder if there is some misunderstanding?"

Hearing Boss Gao's words, the village chief's heart sank.Thinking about the pitiful appearance of Grandpa Lin Qian, he stomped his feet and cursed, "You're not afraid of choking to death on the stolen things!"

How ugly is that?Boss Gao’s complexion was not very good either: “Be respectful, why don’t you say that our family stole things and show evidence? The trees are all the same, so how can you say they belong to his family? Does the old Lin family hate my family for blackmailing us?"

This inversion of black and white almost made the village chief heartbroken.

But now the Gao family is reneging on their debts, what else can they do?

The village chief can't waste his time here, come out of Gao's house, and then think of a way.

The village head left, and the old lady Gao was fine by herself. She peeled the window to make sure that she had left the yard. She sneered triumphantly, turned her head and said as if nothing happened, "Hurry up and eat the fruit, the core will be burned after eating! I don't believe it." I can't beat these little bastards."

The family gathered together to speed up the speed of destroying the fruit. The two daughters-in-law actually looked down on the stolen things, but they hadn’t seen much fruit for more than a year, and they were so greedy that they couldn’t help but reached out and took two. try it.

Although I feel uncomfortable with this stolen thing, I can taste the sweetness when I eat it.

While eating, Mrs. Gao called a pair of grandchildren to her side, and said with a proud face: "Look at it? Once we get the things, they are ours. It doesn't matter how we got them. If we enjoy them, it's our ability." , those incompetent deserve to starve."

The two children were not very old, and they nodded while eating fruit around grandma.

After a while, two cars stopped in front of Gao's house.One is a minivan and the other is a coupe.

Five or six people got off the two cars, and one of them was Lin Qian.

The door was open, people came in directly, and the sight in the room was wide, and they were seen all at once.

The youngest daughter-in-law was stunned, always feeling that something was going to happen, she hurriedly said: "There are people here again, this time there are several people, and the child of the Lin family is also there."

Those who are not married are children, even if Lin Qian is almost thirty, it is not wrong to be called a child.

Mrs. Gao was taken aback for a moment, she didn't expect this matter to be over.She raised her eyebrows, patted her grandchildren, and taught in a low voice: "After a while, when they say we steal things, you all cry. The louder you cry, the better. Do you hear me? Who cries louder? Grandma goes to the city to buy candy. "

Now there is no sugar for sale in the village, but it is available in the city, but it is very expensive.

As soon as they heard that there was sugar, the two children nodded again and again, their faces full of anticipation.

Lin Qian asked a few people to go ahead and followed them into the house.

"Someone reported you for stealing and cutting down trees." The man entered the house and said straight to the point.

At this time, the old lady is at the time of being arrogant, relying on being unreasonable and fearless.Hearing this, he raised his voice an octave and said, "Fart! Who the hell doesn't have eyes when talking! Why did we steal it? Steal your grandma's leg! That fruit was brought to me by my eldest daughter-in-law from her mother's house, why? Even if it was stolen?"

The old lady didn't pretend to be self-confessed. People asked her to cut down trees, but she turned to fruits herself.

As soon as the man opened his mouth, he was pointed at his nose and scolded, his expression was naturally bad, and he said: "We have already obtained sufficient evidence to prove that you cut down trees! You have broken the law, and now the state is cracking down on it. I kindly remind you that you should Good cooperation, as long as you actively cooperate with the compensation, this matter will not cause too much trouble. If you really refuse to cooperate, I will apply to the police for cooperation, and if it is serious, you will be sentenced!"

What the man said is not nonsense. Too many trees have died in the past two years. Penalties are also increasing.Coupled with the fact that the temperature is approaching recently, it is very likely that winter will come early. At this time, the most trees are cut down, and the orders issued by the upper side are also the strictest. It can be said that cutting down trees just hit the muzzle of the gun.

Mrs. Gao was stunned for a moment when she heard this, and she felt a little scruples in her heart. She heard that she was about to be sentenced, and looked at her two sons. If they really went to jail, their reputation would not be justified in the future.

The old lady was a little bluffed, but the two children still remembered what grandma said. After hearing their aggressive words, they opened their mouths and howled. The voice could be heard clearly on the road outside.

As soon as the grandson cried, Mrs. Gao straightened up in an instant.

The momentum here has risen, and the old lady Gao doesn't believe what he said very much, she just thinks that he is bluffing people, and deliberately speaks seriously so that they will admit it.

"Sentence for a fart sentence? There are too many tree fellers in the village! This little bastard cuts down the most trees! If you cut down a tree, you will be punished and shot! My family just cut down some dead branches. Why is it breaking the law? I said why we didn’t collect food when we went up the mountain, so it turned out that his mother wanted to blackmail our house! What’s the matter? See how bullying my old lady is!”

The old lady Gao was so arrogant that she had no room for cooperation.

The man simply ignored her, and turned to look at the oldest man in the room, Boss Gao: "Please cooperate with the investigation, we are doing business."

Boss Gao knew that cutting down trees was illegal, but the people who came to the village never sued the officials. If any family in the village lacked wood or firewood, no one would care if they cut down two trees at will.The village chief had dismissed them before, so naturally he would not take them seriously at this time.

At least in Boss Gao's understanding, this kind of thing is just a procedure, just like the family planning office in the early years, there is no way to refuse to cooperate with them, and the matter will be left alone.

When family planning was the most stringent back then, eight of the top ten families in the village were giving birth, but less than half of them actually paid the fines.

It's the same this time.

The family refused to cooperate, and two people from the Forestry Bureau went to the backyard of his house to check the situation.

In fact, half of the firewood on the car had just been unloaded, and I was in a hurry to go into the house to eat fruit at this time, and I planned to wait for the rest to finish the rest. The hidden wood was also exposed. Looking at the section, it was obviously newly cut.

Second Gao chased them out and saw that they were taking pictures. He hurried over and stopped him and said, "What are you doing? What are you doing? My house is not breaking the law, and these are dead trees."

"It's illegal like a dead tree. We will keep the evidence. Are you refusing to admit it?"

The attitude of the old lady Gao over there is very clear, and the second Gao will naturally not hold back her own mother, with an angry look on her face, and said: "Why is it against the law? The dead tree is not allowed to be cut down What if it’s breaking the law? Arrest me if you have the ability!”

Gao Er and his elder brother have the same thoughts, and don't think it's a big deal.It's a bit embarrassing to play tricks on the villagers, but it doesn't take any psychological burden to play tricks on public officials.

Because a considerable number of people think that public officials are not good people, and they cannot be benefited, so it is right to bully people in any way they can.

The people from the Forestry Bureau didn't get any good looks, and the Gao family was determined not to cooperate, and they all went out with black faces.

Lin Qian said helplessly, "I can only accept fate. This is how this family is. When her little grandson went to our mountain to dig wild vegetables and didn't come home at noon, he was killed by a hailstone. It's our family's fault." , the old lady would smoke it when she came to our door, and forced my family to pay 5 yuan."

Lin Qian deliberately didn't mention this when he reported it, he just waited for them to add fuel to the fire when they hit a wall and were angry.

Obviously, speaking out works better at this time.

The leader took out his phone and called the leader to report the situation here.

In less than ten minutes, a police car came with a series of sirens, and also stopped at the door of Gao's house.

At this moment, Lin Qian was still talking to the few of them, and before he left, the police car stopped, followed by an off-road vehicle.

Four police officers in police uniforms got off the police car, and He Yangxuan who was on the off-road vehicle behind also got off.The police officer questioned He Yangxuan and entered Gao's courtyard.

The daughter-in-law was still standing at the window, and the people in the room were still proudly saying how stupid Lin Qian was thinking of reporting, but the youngest daughter-in-law turned pale as soon as she turned her head.

"The police are here!"

Everyone in the room was taken aback, they didn't expect that what they thought was inappropriate bullshit would alert the police.

No matter what time it is, the police still hold a lot of weight in the hearts of ordinary people. Now that the police have come, the arrogant arrogance just now has suddenly diminished a lot.

The two sons were a little panicked, seeing that they hadn't entered the house yet, they asked the old lady what to do.

The old lady was also taken aback. Looking at the two children, she blamed her for being so arrogant recently. Because of her age and her poor health, nothing went wrong.

Pat the two children: "Keep crying! It's okay! I'm here!"

She thought, if the police arrest someone, she will pretend to be unconscious. If there is a way, the law does not blame the old man, what else can they do to her?

The person came in, Gao Boss walked over a few steps, and said with a smile on his face, "What's the matter?"

The police officer who came in showed his ID first, and said with a blank expression: "You are suspected of theft and logging crimes, please come with us."

The old lady Gao's crying sounded instantly, overpowering the crying of the two children: "It's unjust! That little bastard from Lao Lin's family is forcing me to my death! My family has been doing well all the time! Such an enemy! We have been wronged!"

"If you are wronged, please cooperate with the investigation. We have already obtained strong evidence. If you have any refutation, please go to the police station to discuss." The police officer frowned. In fact, he was most afraid of meeting such an unreasonable old lady. .In many cases, even if it is too much and is taken away, it must be sent back in its original form.

The old lady quit and got down from the kang to catch the police officer. The police officer stepped back to avoid it, and the old lady Gao sat on the ground.

"It's unreasonable! The police came to bully me, an old lady! Just rely on my house to steal things! I can't live!"

After speaking, he rolled his eyes and fell back, directly using the trick to deal with the village chief.

As soon as the old lady fell down, the two sons were relieved, thinking that the old lady was like this, and the matter should be over.

At this time, someone came to the courtyard again. It was the village chief who had gone and returned, and he brought Xue Xinyi here.

After the village chief came home, he felt unwilling no matter what he thought about it. He fidgeted for nearly an hour, and went directly to Xue Xinyi to pull him over to treat the old lady Gao. If she pretended to be unconscious again, Xue Xinyi would expose her.

It's just that he was stunned as soon as he reached the door. There were many people watching the excitement outside. The neighbors heard the movement and saw the police car.

The village head then took Xue Xinyi in, just in time to see the two sons of the Gao family supporting the old lady Gao, who didn't even have a tear bump, and kept falling backwards.

The village head looked back at Xue Xinyi, and Xue Xinyi took two steps forward: "Let me see."

Lin Qian nodded again and again: "This is a doctor in our village with a master's degree."
