Doomsday Grain

The family entered the house, heard what was said just now, and they were still in a daze at this time.

Before, Lin Qian's fourth aunt told them that Lin Qian's family was in very good condition, and there were rumors in the village that their old Qian's family had ignored their relatives and grandchildren before, but they ended up building buildings and mountains in the village when they became successful.

Lin Qian's family has money, so it can be said that in the Qian family's heart, it is very certain that it cannot be refuted, so Lin Qian's mother said before that he had difficulties and they didn't take it to heart at all, and even took a lot of effort to drag the family. Come and join us.

It turns out that's not the case here at all.

It never occurred to them that it was fake.You must know that the news is blocked now, the power has been cut off, and there is no way to make calls.They came here suddenly to catch Lin Qian by surprise, so naturally they didn't inform in advance.

No one knew that their family would come, so it was impossible for Lin Qian's family to act for them.

The Qian family was a little embarrassed standing in the house with their bundles. Lin Qian's uncle, Qian Da, couldn't hold back his face, and asked his mother in a low voice, "What should I do?"

Wu Xiulian was more confused than anyone else.Because it was her idea that the whole family came over, and it was she who insisted on bringing her belongings to support Lin Qian, but when she came, she realized that was not the case at all. This gap is too big.

"Didn't he have an old house?" Wu Xiulian didn't have much confidence in her words.

"I've already sold it to pay off the debt." The woman ate a handful of melon seeds, turned her head and saw that there were few on the table, she turned her eyebrows and cursed, "Who doesn't have eyes to steal melon seeds again! You can eat them as you please and don't let them be hidden." I only eat a few now!"

A man smiled and took out a handful from his pocket and gave it to her: "Go back to the house and have a bite, it's really crowded here."

"It seems that you are renting a house, right? You have enough food to rent a house, why don't you exchange two catties with others yourself, how shameless you are to take advantage of this?" Grabbing the melon seeds, the woman turned her eyes to Wu Xiulian asked, "Are you here to join us?"

Seeing that she is not easy to mess with, Wu Xiulian doesn't talk too much.

"Isn't there nothing to eat?"

The woman rolled her eyes and said with a sneer: "Look at it, how much does this big family have to eat. Those who go to the college students? Come on, they still eat a hundred meals by themselves."

Eating Baijiafan is generally a better way to say begging for food.

I don't know who suddenly said: "There are enough people in this family, is this holding back and eating people down?"

The woman who ate melon seeds responded with a smile: "He has already collapsed, so there is no need for people to eat it."

With the cynicism over there, Wu Xiulian couldn't bear it any longer. She turned her head to look at her husband and son, and thought about whether she wanted to go back as soon as possible while the military card was still there.

It happened that someone came down from the upstairs, and before I saw the person, I heard the voice coming down.

"Give it another two months. I can earn more food by teaching two more children. I can't miss you. If it's not possible, I will go out to work when the world is better in the coming year. This cold weather can't take us away. Are you rushing out?" Lin Qian's voice sounded low.

"Don't say that I don't care about loyalty. Anyway, we are friends, but brothers have to settle accounts. This has been owed for three months, and you can't afford to eat. Your old man is over 80. I can't afford it. You have a long face yourself. Don't say anything else, even if you pay our rent for two months, I won't say anything. How can I trust you if you are idle all day long?" He Yangxuan was originally a leader. What I said is really full of dog eyes and a low sense of sight.

"Isn't this driving me to death? How can I get out in the current world? I also said that I will do all the work in the building if I can't. You can just follow the arrangement. Don't you use me?"

The two went downstairs, and the Qian family saw their figures clearly.

Lin Qian was still wearing a padded jacket, because he couldn't see the thickness of the padded jacket, nor could he see Lin Qian's figure clearly, and Lin Qian was wearing a hat with a brim on his head, so he couldn't tell if his face was fat or thin. It looks like a person who has been hungry for a long time.

And what He Yangxuan was wearing was called a rich man, with a big gold chain and a small watch, covered in mink fur, exuding the aura of local tyrants around him every step of the way.

"What's wrong with me, my building is also paid for. I rent it to anyone without any debts. Why can't your family afford it?"

"Then you will give me another two months? Is it not enough for just two months? We have known each other for so many years."

As soon as Lin Qian looked up, he saw the eight members of the Qian family, and he was a little puzzled: "You are..."

The woman who ate melon seeds spat out the rind of melon seeds: "The one who came here to join you." There was no hint of sarcasm in her tone.

Lin Qian went downstairs a few steps and took a closer look at them: "You are..."

The Qian family looked at each other, but Wu Xiulian reacted quickly: "Ah, it's okay, let's come for a walk."

It was heard that Lin Qian still owed someone money, Wu Xiulian purposely made things unclear, lest people would know that she was Lin Qian's grandma, and this group of people asked her to pay back the money for Lin Qian.

Lin Qian was still wondering, but Wu Xiulian started to touch the eldest son with her sleeve, signaling to leave quickly.

As a result, just as Wu Xiulian took a step back, a small door in the corner of the room opened, and she stuck out her head: "Isn't this in-law's family?"

Wu Xiulian trembled, and saw her grandpa coming over with a walking stick and grabbing Wu Xiulian: "My mother-in-law, I miss you so much that I haven't seen you for a while. Why did you think about it? It's too late You can look at our grandpa and grandson, but we can’t survive! This prodigal bastard ruined the whole family, not to mention he still owes a lot of debts, which means he owes a lot of rent! You are thinking about grandchildren, right? , come here! Please help me!"

Wu Xiulian looked embarrassed, and took two steps back: "Where, our family has no food, so come here to see if we can make a living."

Grandpa was slightly stunned, and looked behind Wu Xiulian: "This is my daughter-in-law and her brother! They are so old, these children belong to him? They look really energetic. Carrying so many things, how can there be no way to eat?" , Look at how rich you are! If you really can't live in the family, you can stay here. It happens that the eight of you can help me and my family Qianqian pay more rent for the two of us. Who in our family has not had a difficult time? "

Grandpa said all the words Wu Xiulian had originally prepared, and he held Wu Xiulian in his hands, and the posture really looked like several layers of skin had been peeled off.

Wu Xiulian came here to take advantage, how could she be taken advantage of?

"Don't, grandpa, my family came here just because we couldn't eat. I didn't expect your family to be more difficult than mine. Then I'll go back first, and I can survive by cooking more water in the future. It's not easy for us, Who can help whom?"

"Doesn't your family still have a house? If you sell the house, you will have food. Renting a house here is enough to live on. You are also Qianqian's grandma. My Qianqian is a college student with great skills, but I didn't start a business this year. Well, I will go to the city to find a job in the coming year, he will be very promising, he can earn over one million a year, and then he will be able to honor you, right?"

If the parent of a top student who just graduated from a famous university said this, someone would believe it.But this is obviously a down-and-out college student saying something with an annual salary of one million. Anyone who hears it thinks it is daydreaming.

At this time, what Wu Xiulian thought was that the old man was crazy and kept hiding, but the old man was so strong that he grabbed it tightly.

The youngest Qian saw it, and pulled his grandfather to let him go: "Don't, don't, his grandfather, you can't say that, our family still has to eat, so many children can't sell the house to drink the northwest wind. I I was thinking of coming here to borrow some food for the winter, but I didn’t expect you to be so difficult. Don’t say that our family is heartless, we will give you any food we have, and we are also very hungry.”

"Your package is still so big." Grandpa pointed to the large and small packages in their hands.

"This is what we came along the way. There is not much food, only rags." Wu Xiulian said nonsense.

"Want to come? You walked here!" Grandpa looked in disbelief.

The eight members of the family nodded in unison, for fear that grandpa would go over.

As luck would have it, someone knocked on the door.In the village, the guards usually enter directly without locking the door, and few people are so polite.

Lin Qian ran over to open the door with doggy steps: "Who is it?"

As soon as the door opened, a man in military uniform saluted Lin Qian: "Comrade, did eight people come here just now? We brought over the food they put in the car, and we left if nothing happened."

Wu Xiulian was about to collapse, this matter was arranged by herself.

She originally thought about coming over to perform, and in case Lin Qian was angry that they refused to take him in, she asked the soldiers to come over to deliver food, and said in front of the soldiers that they came here with food for nothing, and then dragged the soldiers Help to say good things, and use Lin Qian to force him to agree.

It turns out that things are not what she imagined at all, and just after she said that she has no food, the soldier just stepped in to deliver the food.

Lin Qian was immediately happy: "My dear grandma, this saved my life!"

"Don't touch it!" Wu Xiulian yelled brokenly, and rushed over to push Lin Qian away lying on the grain.

Brother Bing looked at the farce and didn't get involved. He saluted the military and turned around and left.

"Comrade, don't go! Help me carry it back, I'll go home! I'll go back now!"

Brother Bing didn't even listen, and ran away in a small step.

Lin Qian asked strangely, "Grandma, isn't this for me?"

"Give your grandma a grandson!" Grandma cursed, and beat Lin Qian back: "Stay away, this belongs to me!"

Lin Qian sneered from the bottom of his heart, but his face was aggrieved: "Grandma, I haven't seen you for more than 20 years. It's so easy to see you once. Even if you don't come to help me, don't scold me. I miss you."

"You don't need to think about it! Boy! Come here, carry rice and let's go!"

The food he brought was only one sack, and the rest was hidden in the cellar at home and locked. Lin Qian was afraid that bringing too much food would make it cheaper for Lin Qian.

"Don't go, dear family! We can't even eat here, so we should save ten or twenty catties of rice for us to stand up for!" Grandpa also followed, but when he arrived at the door, he was blown by the cold wind and froze. It stopped.

The padded jacket Grandpa was wearing was not too thick, and the cold wind from outside would blow through after a dozen.He Yangxuan was afraid that something bad would happen to his grandpa, so he stretched out his hand to pull him back, and said, "Hey, hey, what are you doing? This is my house and your house! Are you using my house as a vegetable market? You are a relative of Lin Qian! You help bring the food I won't make it difficult for him after handing it over. See, you have defected, don't you have a place to live?"

The woman who ate melon seeds raised her voice: "Who is there to drag the family and carry luggage to see relatives? They must have defected, but we have no place here."

"Who said there's no room?" He Yangxuan's voice rose an octave, "I said there is. The two of you came over and cleaned up the toilet upstairs. Why can't I live in it after two or three months? There is also heating in the corridor. It’s not cold, and the rest can live in a floor bunk in the corridor. What are you doing, why don’t you move my food in!”

Immediately, two strong men came out of the crowd to carry food.

The woman who was eating melon seeds took two steps forward, disagreed and said, "Hey, brother, I don't take you like this. If the downstairs toilet is occupied, it will be occupied, and the upstairs toilet is not allowed to be used, so what should we do? Go outside and scavenge." A piss can freeze to death, but also keep people alive!"

"Go, go, why can't you use the toilet? Isn't the toilet reserved for you? It won't delay your going to the toilet if people live in it. Why are you afraid of pissing on someone's face!" He Yangxuan turned his head with a poor look on his face Continue to direct the two men, "Hurry up, do you still want to eat?"

Wu Xiulian quit, and waved away anyone who came close: "Don't touch anyone! I see who dares to touch them! I don't know them! Don't ask me for food. I don't have it! Who knows them! We went to the wrong door, you guys I made a mistake!"

Qian Da handed the luggage in his hand to his daughter-in-law, went to pick up the bag of rice, and the family of eight filed out faster than when they came.

The little grandson didn't understand yet, he had a room by himself, what did he want?Why did you just leave?

"Grandma, grandma, I want a toy gun, where is my big cousin?"

"Your cousin is dead!" Wu Xiulian gritted her teeth.

"Don't go, in-laws!" He Yangxuan put on a coat for grandpa, and grandpa stood at the door and shouted to the outside with a smile.

At this time, even if one of them turned their head back, they could see three pairs of mocking eyes looking at them mockingly at the door. Unfortunately, they were all afraid of being implicated by Lin Qian, a "poor guy".

After people left the yard, Lin Qian closed the door and turned around to look at the "actors" in the room. He paused for two seconds and made a comparison.

The room exploded in an instant, and everyone surrounded it.

"How's the acting going?" The sour woman who had been eating melon seeds looked expectant.

Lin Qian gave a thumbs up: "Good acting!"

The man behind the woman patted her on the shoulder: "It's really good, I want to beat you up."

The woman turned her head and took a look at the man's stomach: "Who are you hitting? It's against you!"

"Hit me, hit me! Can't I be beaten?"

This pair is the neighbors Wang Ying and Liu Dongsheng.Although Wang Yingren is not a mean person, but he grew up in the village, and he has been influenced by his ears and eyes, and he can act with ease.

Apart from the Liu family in the house, there are also Liu Zhifeng's mother and daughter, and the rest are also neighbors, and it's not in vain. Come to perform this play and each person can get a few eggs.It is difficult to eat vegetables in this winter, let alone eggs.

He Yangxuan went to the bathroom, soaked a wet towel in warm water, wrung it dry, and took it out to Lin Qian.Lin Qian pressed his face, wiped it twice, and took off the white towel, which turned yellowish brown.

This is still Wang Ying's cosmetics, the brown contouring stick was applied all over her face, so her face turned sallow.But with a bloated body and a hat on his head, his figure could not be seen. He looked like he was hungry, so he fooled the Qian family.

"Unload it now, what if they come back later?" Wang Ying said worriedly.

"Don't worry, they can't wait to come here forever." Lin Qian wiped his face clean, Wang Ying handed over the makeup remover and cotton, and He Yangxuan used the cotton to remove what couldn't be wiped off Lin Qian's face with the makeup remover.

"It's no wonder that you've never seen this kind of person before you come here. You can't take advantage of it and turn around and leave, as if you're afraid of relying on them." A villager looked out the window and frowned.

"As long as they are kind to me, I can't act like this to deceive them." Lin Qian sighed after finishing speaking, "It's no way. When my father and I were in trouble, they even sent me two apples. Give it to me, I can record it well. I didn’t care about it for the past 20 years, and now I suddenly come to the door and ask me to support their family of eight, who would be willing to let it go?"

If someone else has experienced this kind of thing, they may lose face, bite the bullet and continue, and then try to get out.If the other party is really cheeky and stays there, there is no way to do it.

But if the protagonists are not them, and they are simply asked to express their opinions, then they are definitely not willing, one hundred and one thousand are not willing.

Don't say that you didn't date in the first 20 years. Even if you have a good friendship in normal times, there is no reason to support others. They are all good hands and feet. How can they starve to death?

"I can't blame you for this matter. Since everyone is gone, don't think about it any more. The matter is over and it's over. We have to live in our own family." One person comforted.

Lin Qian nodded. After waiting for 10 minutes, Lin Qian went out to take a look. People had already walked out of the street, so he asked everyone to go back.

This time the army just put the supplies in the village brigade and left directly.

This was what Lin Qian discussed with them.Originally, today was not the time to deliver supplies to this village. This time, it was time to deliver the supplies here in advance. The next delivery will be a few days later, and then go to the brigade to load the supplies. The two supplies will be distributed together. It has no effect on the villagers.This time I came here mainly to send the Qian family to the family of eight.

In fact, a simple ten catty egg didn't have such a big impact. The army also wanted to sell Lin Qian a favor.

Lin Qian also accepted their love.

The Qian family didn't see the military card when they went out, and they searched two more streets but still couldn't find it. They couldn't stand the cold, and reluctantly insisted on going to the brigade to find the village chief.

At this time, the whole family was unbearably cold, and it took a long time to warm up in the brigade before they recovered.The two girls and the little grandson had runny noses from the cold, and they hadn't been outside for such a long time since winter began.

Lin Qian had already gotten through with the village chief, but seeing their family of eight now, he felt a little complicated.Such a family, if it is not a thing, it is really a thing, but at this moment, the pitiful nest is warming up by the fire, and the ridicule cannot be said.

Watching them warming up by the fire, the village chief sat at his desk drinking hot water soaked with goji berries.This medlar is still from last year, but no matter how it is, no matter how old it is, some are good to drink.

The little grandson watched eagerly as the village chief drank hot water, and reached out to touch Wu Xiulian: "Grandma, I'm thirsty too."

The Qian family is a standard patriarchal family. The daughter-in-law in front of her is not able to give birth to a son, so she just sweeps the house out. She gave birth to three daughters in a row to have such a grandson. Naturally, it looks like something precious.

There is nothing wrong with what the little grandson says.

"Village chief, my child is thirsty."

The village head raised his eyes and pointed to the corner: "There is a drinking fountain over there, and the cups are clean."

In the past two years, a car would deliver bottled water once a month, but now it is gone, and the barrels contain tap water.Generally, no one comes to the brigade, so the water in it is not much to drink. Until now, the water has been cut off, but there is still water here.

And the village chief also comes over two or three days a week to light a fire in the house to save him from freezing.

Wu Xiulian went to pour water, and the little grandson said again: "Grandma, I want to drink hot water."

Wu Xiulian put down the half-filled water, took another cup to the village head, and smiled politely, "Excuse me, where is the hot water?"

There was no water on the stove in the house, and Wu Xiulian's words were polite, but she was actually asking the village chief for hot water that he brought himself.

Of course the village chief understood this, looked at the scattered goji berries in the glass, felt a little distressed, and poured her half a glass anyway.

Wu Xiulian took half a glass of water back to the little grandson, the little grandson held it in his hand and drank it in small sips very satisfied, the third girl who was only a few years older than the little grandson looked at her and pursed her mouth: "I also want to drink hot water. "

Wu Xiulian didn't even look at her: "I'm going."

The village head put down the cup and asked, "People from the army left early today because of something, and they didn't even distribute the supplies. What do you think is the arrangement? Do you want to find a car to go back or what?"

Wu Xiulian stood up from the stove again, and said with a smile, "It's really inconvenient for us to take care of our family. It would be great if you can arrange a car."

This is for the village head to solve the problem of the eight of them going back.The village chief frowned without leaving a trace, thinking that these people are difficult enough.

"In this situation, no car can turn on when you go out. If you don't worry, stay in the brigade. The army will return in a few days, and then go back with the army card. There are three beds in the brigade, and the eight of you can squeeze in enough. Wait, don’t you guys have luggage? It’s not freezing.”

The village head's words can be regarded as an arrangement for their family.

Wu Xiulian was a little disappointed, but the current situation could only be like this.

Qian Da turned his eyes, and asked, "I'm asking you, how is Lin Qian's mountain?"

Qian Da actually felt that he was overthinking it, but he had heard that his nephew, who had made a lot of money and was very promising, had become such a bear in the blink of an eye, and the span was a bit big.Although the possibility of acting is not high, Qian Da still wants to confirm.

After all, the village chief knows the situation in the village best.

"Boy Lin Qian, the mountain has been sold a long time ago. It's a pity. When I first came back, the conditions were so good that they were ruined in a blink of an eye. Otherwise, it would be great to marry a wife and have children now. It's not like now, come here every three days with me Ask if the government can help him marry a wife."
