Grandpa is not called Cuihua

Su Mo always thought that in such a small village, one could live a peaceful life, and the occasional small twists and turns were nothing more than episodes in ordinary life.Just go around the hillside every day and look at the jujube trees that have sprouted and the watermelon seedlings that are growing well, and I feel at ease.

When the melons and fruits are ripe, they will be sold to the business group for a sum of money—but, the next thing once again broke his understanding of the existing life.

At the foot of the hillside, a dozen policemen in official uniforms guarded the only road.

"There is an order from above that no one is allowed to go up."

Zhang Bao, the leader of the official station, with a cold face, stopped the group of people who were about to go forward, and said without blinking his eyes.

"What's going on here? We've rented out this hillside, why aren't we allowed to go up?"

Su Cheng, as the head of the family, asked on behalf of the family. He hadn't heard anything before. How could there be such an order all of a sudden?

"I don't know, we're just following orders."

After Zhang Bao said this sentence, if he didn't speak again, no matter how Su Cheng asked, he would just stand there like a wooden stake.

The village had always been peaceful, but the sudden arrival of an official dispatch was undoubtedly an earth-shattering event. Many villagers watched from a distance, not daring to approach.To them, that official uniform is equivalent to wearing the skin of a jackal, a tiger, and a leopard, which are meant to eat people.

"Hey, this Su Gui's family is going to be in trouble, what's going on, they offended the government..."

"That is to say, they don't want to rent this hillside anymore. This is really a waste of work!"

There are constant discussions below, and many people are waiting for the development of the gaffe with an attitude of watching the show. For the Su family who seems to have good luck recently, they have long been envious and jealous, but now they feel balanced in their hearts.

Xiu Niang listened to those gossip, and then thought about the money borrowed, and everyone's hard work in the past few months, her heart became blocked, and her face turned pale.

"Mom, are you okay? Let's go home first."

Su Mo had already noticed that something was wrong with Xiu Niang, and now seeing that she was on the verge of falling, as if she was about to faint at any moment, she hurriedly said.

"I'm fine..."

Xiu Niang regained her composure and said slowly, so many people in the family are watching, she can't be the first to panic.

"Brothers and sisters, don't panic. Didn't the officials say that this blockade is temporary."

Su Cheng was quite calm, seeing that most of the family members were showing uneasiness, he forced a smile and comforted him.

"Ah."

Xiu Niang nodded, and let Liu Niang walk home on her arms, knowing that it was not as easy as what her elder brother said—even though it was temporary, in the eyes of those officials, a day or two is a temporary, or maybe a month or two. months, let alone two or three years... The fruit trees on the slope are okay, but the few acres of winter melons can't wait.

This melon seedling alone will cost a lot of money, won't it be lost at that time?

It's impossible to sit and wait for the "unblocking". Su Cheng's brain was active, and when the villagers dispersed that night, he took a few chickens and two pots of good wine, and stuffed them for Zhang Bao, the leader. A few taels of silver.

"Officer, just tell me, how long are you going to guard?"

Zhang Bao took the money, and the brothers ate meat and drank wine again, so it was hard to be sullen, and their attitude eased a lot—"I didn't deliberately hide it from you, everyone just received it this morning." The order was given by the magistrate himself."

He said a few more gossips, but seeing that he couldn't ask anything, Su Cheng had no choice but to go back to Su's house in frustration.

"The county magistrate personally issued the order? He is a parent officer, why bother us if he has nothing to do?"

Taohua rushed back after hearing the news, and saw that the house was full of gloom.After hearing what the uncle said, she felt a little strange, the county magistrate probably didn't even know there was a Su family...

"This is so strange! Tomorrow I will ask Steward Zhang to go to the county government office to inquire about it."

When Chang Hao left, he confessed to Zhang Guanshi, as long as it was a friend's request, he would agree to him.

"fair enough."

Su Mo thinks about it and there is no other way, only Su Cheng of the Su family has seen some of the world, but if he meets those who are officials, he will be weak.He himself is not yet an adult, if he goes, he will not be taken seriously.

The next day until dusk, Guanshi Zhang came in person in a carriage. The face that was always smiling was now extremely serious, which made everyone's eagerly awaited hearts sink again.

"Mr. Hua, I'm sorry, I failed your entrustment."

Guanshi Zhang just sat down and looked at Hua Feiyu apologetically without taking a sip of the tea.

He has tried his best, and even spent a lot of money on it.Unexpectedly, the county magistrate who originally had some friendship with the business group, this time he kept his mouth shut.

"You've tried your best..."

Hua Feiyu shook his head, knowing that Guanshi Zhang could not be blamed for this matter, perhaps someone deliberately made things difficult, but if even the county magistrate is so afraid, who exactly is the Su family offending?

When eating in the evening, Shen Qinghe first tasted a piece of sweet and sour moon, and frowned, there was no sugar in it, but it was so salty.I picked up another chopsticks of green vegetables, which were bland and tasteless, and there was no salt...

Look at the two people at the dinner table. There are so many dishes on the table, but they are all eating plain rice. One or two, what are they thinking?

"Feiyu, what happened?"

Shen Qinghe sighed, put down the bowl and chopsticks, today's "cook" is really out of order.If this goes on, his stomach can't stand it.

"The county magistrate sent someone to seal the hillside rented by Su Mo's family, but they couldn't give any explanation..."

Hua Feiyu also followed Shangchou, he was very happy to stay here, he liked the life here very much, and worked with everyone every day, if he didn't do anything in the future, he really wasn't used to it.

"Are you worried about this? I'll teach that bastard county magistrate myself in the evening."

Shen Qinghe didn't take it seriously, and didn't give an explanation?This is easy to handle, he has a lot of ideas.

"..."

Su Mo was speechless, but had to admit that sometimes violent methods might be more effective.

Su Mo and Hua Feiyu waited all morning with dark circles under their eyes, and finally waited for Shen Qinghe to come back—"How is it?"

Shen Qinghe's expression was not very good either, he was silent for a while, and finally said: "Actually, it's considered a question..."

Su Mo and Hua Feiyu looked at each other, what does it mean - "is"?Looking at Shen Qinghe's hesitation, he felt a bad feeling in his heart.

"That old man said that those were all orders from above..." Shen Qinghe felt a little embarrassed, and vowed to make it happen, but he didn't know that it turned out like this, "The above refers to the government office, I'm afraid to ask again Down, and up..."

"Why don't you write to Xiangye Wei to see if he knows anything about it?"

Does anyone know how many people are on this?But Wei Heng can say that one person is under one person and over ten thousand people. If he asks, there will definitely be results.Hua Feiyu didn't believe it anymore, the person who instigated him could still be bigger than "heaven".

It took several days for the letter to reach Xiang Wei's hand.The past few days have been a torment for everyone.

The bright moon hung high, and Su Mo sat in front of the window wrapped in a quilt, without any sleepiness.The family is also in panic now, and everyone is disturbed by this incident and can't eat or sleep.Even though he had a good mental quality, he couldn't sit still at this moment.

"Don't worry, Mr. Wei must have a letter."

At some point, Hua Feiyu came in wearing a coat, looked at the bright moon outside the window with him, and comforted him in a low voice.

"A few days ago, I boasted and said big things, saying that I was going to break the sky, and now I know how powerless I am."

Su Mo didn't look back, staring at the vast sky, suddenly felt a sense of bewilderment about the world.For the first time, he saw how much power there was under feudal rule, and the common people were at the bottom of the rule.

There is no living democracy here, and laws are made, but most of the time, these do not apply to the privileged.There was someone who acted so arbitrarily and arbitrarily, just one order almost ruined all his hard work...

"You are young--"

Hua Feiyu could hear the loss and frustration in that voice, and wanted to find something to comfort Su Mo, but the fact was that, in the end, his helplessness could only be reduced to these three flimsy words.

"Why would you rather stay here than go back to Beijing?"

Originally, Su Mo wasn't someone who liked to meddle in other people's business, but in this atmosphere and in such a state of mind, he somehow asked, "Forget it, just pretend I didn't ask."

As soon as the words came out of his mouth, he regretted it. He shouldn't have asked about such a private matter, something that Hua Feiyu had been trying to hide.

"I made a mistake. If I continue, I will definitely be struck by lightning."

Hua Feiyu bit his lip until the blood came out of the bite, and then spat out those words soaked in blood.He is not afraid of being struck by lightning from the sky, but he is afraid of hurting others, which would be even more sinful.

However, it was strange to say that he thought he would be arrested soon, but after so long, there was no movement...

This is really not in line with the Hua family's style of doing things, and furthermore, it is not in line with Hua Feiyu's usual way of doing things.

"Don't worry, you've been hiding for so long, aren't you all right?"

Su Mo comforted him and said that maybe Washington had given up looking for it, and it might not be true.Besides, this place is very remote, and it is difficult for ordinary people to find it.

"I know my brother, he is not the kind of person who will give up easily..."

Hua Feiyu said flatly that it was because he knew too well that even after so many days, he still felt uneasy in his heart from time to time.

"I always feel that there is still room for resolution. Although it seems that there is no way out, the person who gave the order didn't really want to deal with us. Otherwise, with his status, it would not only be as simple as sealing the mountain."

Su Mo deliberately changed the subject. He is really not good at comforting people, and it would be bad if it backfired.

However, he did have a feeling that if he was a little bit closer, he would be able to find the crux of the problem.As long as you find the crux, everything will be solved.

"Then why did this person take such painstaking efforts to do so?"

Hua Feiyu couldn't figure it out, what was there for the Su family to figure out?

The moon in the sky was gradually covered by a floating cloud, casting a shadow. Su Mo kept thinking about this matter, and somehow saw Hua Feiyu on the side. Thinking of the conversation just now, a scene popped up in his mind. Thoughts—maybe, this person is not targeting the Su family?
