food crisis [end times]

Chapter 73 Chapter 73

Li Guanjun has been naughty since he was a child, and his reputation in the village is not very good.But Li Baoguo is well known for his kindness.As a real uncle, even if the conditions in Li Bao's country were not good, he would help his only nephew as much as he could.

However, Li Guanjun committed suicide by himself and focused on his cousin, which completely chilled Li Baoguo.

Otherwise, now that Li Baoguo is helping Xiang Luo to buy fungus bags, he will definitely be rich and powerful, not to mention having a bright future.Li Baoguo has only one daughter, so it's fine if she marries in this village, but if she gets married and has no one to support her at home, she will definitely find her nephew to take care of her.If Li Guanjun was smarter and more lovable, it would not be impossible for Li Baoguo to give him all the money.

Although the atmosphere here is not so serious about patriarchy, it also defaults that the property belongs to the son.There are also those who have only daughters in their families, and the brothers will be tempted by his family's property.

Maybe not many, but definitely there.

But for such a great opportunity, Li Guanjun himself killed him.

Hearing what they said, Xiang Luo remembered that there was still such a person in the village.

At the beginning, Li Guanjun was voted by the whole village to send him out, but no one had heard of or seen his dead body after the snow melted.Of course, no one has bothered to step out since then.

This Li Guanjun has since disappeared, and it is not known whether he is still alive.

Xiang Luo couldn't suppress the smile on his lips when he thought of the way Zhu Yan came out to solve the case like a god and Li Guanjun came out.

But the topic turned to Xiang Luo in an instant.

"But good luck, no one can surpass this old Xiang family boy who is diagonally opposite."

"That's for sure, but Old Xiang is a good character. He can take out anything. I would definitely be reluctant to do so. If it weren't for the mushroom bag that can grow mushrooms, my family doesn't know what to do with it now."

"That's right, the third daughter-in-law of Xiang's daughter-in-law didn't do good things. Has she been punished soon?"

"How can he call retribution? Old Liu is the one who is unlucky. What a good boy, just go out and do a favor and he will be gone."

"But didn't everyone say that it was Xiang Laosan who pushed it? Otherwise, why would someone help him die, and he would be stabbed in the leg when he went out to save his grandson. His leg is far from that young man's chest."

"Ghost knows what happened that day. But if he really pushed someone, it would be so cruel. I used to see such an honest person."

"Honest ass, if you want me to say, dragons look for dragons and tigers, and dung beetles look for crickets. It's not that one family doesn't come into one family. How could Qian Shurou live in peace with him for so many years like that? Is he a good person?"

"Hey, one of them has a bad face and the other has a bad face. Qian Shurou went out to take advantage of him. If there is nothing to do, he will be reprimanded without pain or itching, and it will make people think that he is a good person."

……

Everyone said what they said, but Xiang Luo couldn't tell which one was said by that person.

However, these scattered words are enough to change the direction of public opinion in the entire village.

No one saw Xiang Jianguo pushing people except the girl.But you have to know that it was only a little girl who saw this, and the night was dark and windy at the time, at most she could only see a figure, who can tell who pushed whom?

Therefore, even if this incident got to the ears of the Liu family, it would not be able to do anything to Xiang Jianguo's family.

It's just that such rumors spread in the village, and such rumors subverted Xiang Jianguo's image as a good old man in the village before, and he began to avoid his family.

As the protagonists, Xiang Jianguo's family naturally didn't know.They've been busy lately, and it's already been very difficult.

What broke them down was that little Xiang Zongyan woke up.

But after waking up, Xiang Zongyan's eyes were in a daze, and his reaction was obviously not as good as before.A child who was originally one and a half years old.He could already speak some words, but when Xiang Zongyan woke up again, he couldn't even bark at his grandma, and he was in a daze, opening his mouth and drooling.

People in the village who saw it all said that the child was knocked stupid because he hit his head.

How could Qian Shurou believe it?When I heard someone gossip, I almost tore the mouth of the gossip.After that, the whole Xiang family stayed at home and refused to go out.

The police came down to help investigate the case, and soon found the little girl who said she saw Xiang Jianguo pushing someone that night.

But the little girl was obviously taught by her parents, and she insisted that she didn't see anything. She was just talking about watching the plot in the comics that day, not Grandpa Xiang.

And because the child is young, after being repeatedly reminded and warned by his parents, the child himself began to feel that he had misunderstood and confused, so when he answered the police, it didn't look like he was lying.

In this way, there will be no follow-up to the incident where rumors spread all over the village.The deceased died without evidence, and the murderer ran away again.

The Liu family also heard that the child died because he was pushed, but they can't come to the door to settle accounts and ask others to pay for their lives just because of this.

But when the person died, there was only a widow mother-in-law left, with a pregnant little widow, life would always go on.

A few members of the Liu family came to Xiang Jianguo's family on behalf of the poor mother-in-law and daughter-in-law. The child died to save their grandson, and they couldn't say nothing.

As soon as Qian Shurou heard that they were going to speak up, she quit immediately, yelling that the kid came out by herself, and they were not the ones who killed them, so they should go find the murderer.It's not that she begged for someone to come out to rescue him. If someone dies, it can't fall on her head.

In the end, the two sides quarreled more and more, and Qian Shurou's words became more and more unpleasant.

Mrs. Liu was originally a neighbor who lived next door, so she naturally heard the scolding from here, and when she heard the sound, she came over with a broom and tore up with Qian Shurou.

The two sides fought inextricably until the People's Liberation Army came and pulled the two sides apart.

And Xiang Jianguo didn't say a word from the beginning to the end.

And that Xiang Zongyan just sat on the kang and watched the farce in the room, and even laughed blankly.Seeing the saliva flow out, I feel stupid.

The Liu family boy died for help, but saved a family of white-eyed wolves.Not only did Qian Shurou show no gratitude at all, but she taunted the family members of the deceased.

Although Qian Shurou's reputation in the village was not good before, when she went out, other people in the village would nod and smile at her, and they could be regarded as acquaintances.

Even though the girl from the Cao family felt that she did something wrong, the Cao family came from other places after all, and the villagers were a little defensive.

It's just that since then, the whole village didn't even pass by Qian Shurou's house, for fear of causing bad luck again.

And Xiang Jianguo's image as a good old man in the village has completely collapsed, and he can't help but spit when anyone mentions it.

They are also a perfect couple.A kind person who gave a push and came over to help.A family member who verbally insulted the benefactor.

The husband and wife really did not get a good cake after stepping on their steamed buns, and their grandson became demented, which is also the retribution of the two of them for not doing good things!

Afterwards, the police almost finished the investigation of the matter, took away all those who were clearly criminals, and also wrapped up those minors who were determined to be involved in the crime.

The rest of the people in the village are like snakes and scorpions, and they just need to find rotten eggs and throw them over.

So this group of people was first sent to the village by the People's Liberation Army, and let the army stationed in the village and the township government find a way to resettle them.

It's just that this group of people has suffered too much and experienced too many things.Whether it will become a hidden danger in the future is still unknown.

But no matter what, it has nothing to do with the village.

The occurrence of this incident is also equivalent to a heavy lesson for everyone.Just because the life of this village has been relatively smooth so far, it is naive to think that there are not so many crimes in this world.

From now on, the compassion in their hearts should be put away.

After all, not everything in the future will be as lucky as this time.

In the next few days, Xiang Luo lived in seclusion, the duckling broke its shell, because the first thing it saw when it came out was people, so it was not afraid of people, the village and the People's Liberation Army would come to have a look, and these little guys would be very obedient and take the initiative to join Go up and beg for food.

These cute little guys carry almost all the hopes of the villagers.Xiang Luo also said that the second batch of duck eggs has already begun to hatch, and now there are 120 eggs hatched each time, and there will be about four batches in three months on average, that is, 70 eggs in three months, even if it is 90 % of the hatching rate is less than [-] ducklings.

Among them, Xiang Luo donated [-] ducks, kept [-] ducks for breeding ducks, and the remaining [-] ducks can be sold experimentally in the village.

The current price of each duck is [-] catties of multigrain biscuits.

This price is definitely relatively high, but on the outside, even a hundred catties of grain can't be exchanged for one.

At present, because of growing mushrooms, every household has some food reserves, which can still afford a duck.But the problem is that you can't just buy one duck and breed it, at least one male and one female.But ducks are bound to be damaged as they grow up.Even in formal farms, ducks have a certain mortality rate.

In the past, chickens, ducks and geese were raised in the village. It was quite normal for more than 30 chickens and ducks to die in single digits. It was even unlucky to buy dozens of chickens and ducks, and none of them died.

The whole village is thinking that these ducks can bring more hope.But when faced with these ducks, when they can be purchased, they basically face some problems.

There is no shortage of food to buy ducks, but whether to buy them or not requires deep thinking.

Xiang Luo's first batch of 23 cubs hatched. Except for the 10 donated, there were very few people who came to inquire about the ducks recently.

Xiang Luo felt a little melancholy watching over this group of little guys who changed every day.

"People are urging you to get angry, why are you still getting angry when no one buys it now?" Zhu Yan joked.

Xiang Luo grabbed a duckling.The little duck is not afraid of people, it just focuses its beak on digging Xiang Luo's fingers, as if there is something delicious hidden under the fingers.The duckling shook its butt at Xiang Luo, it was so cute that it made people want to poke it.

"Family wealth, hairy ones don't count. Even if the lions and elephants at home are worth millions, it's useless as long as they die. It's understandable now to wait and see. When we take care of these little guys, As long as the death is not too much, it is estimated that the next brood of eggs will be sold out when it hatches."

Moreover, Xiang Luo was really reluctant to sell it.

"Let's keep it. After all, this is your first time hatching an egg. You can't just sell it for such a small amount of money." Zhu Yan drove the car and took two steps sideways.

Xiang Luo glanced at him, and sneered like Zhu Yan: "Who did I sell to for the first time, you don't know?"

Zhu Yan turned back and went out, mockingly said: "Anyway, it's not a valuable thing."

Xiang Jianguo's wound was not recovering well, he had been infected before and had a fever at night.The People's Liberation Army used the medicines they had distributed for him. Although the wound stopped festering, he still had a dull pain, suspected to be a nerve injury.But under the current conditions, it is impossible to go to the county to see a doctor casually.

When sending those refugees to the village, Xiang Jianguo followed them to the village health center to have a look.The doctor in the health center had mediocre medical skills and couldn't tell anything. He only said that he might have injured a nerve, which is not easy to treat. There may be problems with his hind legs, but it won't be too much trouble.

After that, Xiang Jianguo lived more reclusively.

Qian Shurou has begged the People's Liberation Army several times with the child in her arms, and wants to go to the city to check the child well.But the child's life is not in danger, and it is impossible to drive so far for him alone. All the People's Liberation Army can do is comfort.

And the few times she came out, no one greeted her along the way, and looked at her with contempt.

But they were hiding far away, and Qian Shurou couldn't find an excuse to fight and vent their anger.In this way, the three of them don't like to go out even more.

But it’s one thing not to like to go out. Their family always has income, and they always have mushrooms at home.

But Xiang Jianguo didn't like to go out, and Qian Shurou gritted his teeth at Xiang Luo.After a few days, Qian Shurou couldn't sit still anymore, and even went to find Xiang Yan, thinking that Xiang Yan was a woman with a soft heart, first hugging the stunned Xiang Zongyan and tearfully selling her, and then said that there was really nothing at home The food is enough to feed the child, let alone saving food for him to see a doctor.

What Qian Shurou meant was that Li Baoguo's mushroom packs were too expensive, and Qian Shurou couldn't afford them, but Xiang Yan made her own mushroom packs?He and Xiang Jianguo are brothers and sisters.His own family naturally wanted to help each other. This time, Qian Shurou didn't say he was taking advantage of it for nothing. He said that he would give food, but it was just a little less than Li Baoguo's.It can not only make Xiang Yan a little money, but also allow Qian Shurou to sell fungus bags at a cheaper price.

Xiang Yan is indeed soft-hearted, but soft-hearted does not mean stupid.The fact that such a good child as Xiang Luo didn't have any contact with Xiang Jian's country made Xiang Yan a little more suspicious of their husband and wife, and the recent incident of adopting a daughter made Xiang Yan feel even colder.

In the past, because of Xiang Jianguo's younger brother, no matter how bad Qian Shurou was, he would help Xiang Yan a little bit.After all, they all belong to the surname.

But it's different now.

But Xiang Yan wouldn't be angry with others.

"Your family's life is really not easy. You can think about it for me. It's easy for me to have a daughter? Xiang Luo's child is good, and he also takes care of me. But what he means is that he will become bigger and stronger in the future , I will definitely not let me alone to help make the mushroom bag. If I am his second aunt and take care of me and give me any privileges, it will be difficult to deal with other people in the future. So how do I come now, others will That's how it came about."

Hearing this, Qian Shurou's face changed, but he still managed to maintain a smile on his face: "If that kid Xiang Luo is really like this, isn't he a bit mean..."

At this point, Xiang Yan could see that Qian Shurou was really in trouble.If it's the past temper, return the food?Just come to the door and ask for it.Or like last time, they opened and closed their mouths with the excuse of "for your own good" and wanted to occupy the magpie's nest and suck Xiang Yan's blood openly and aboveboard.Put on an attitude of "I want you to think highly of you", and immediately yell at you if you dare not agree.

But now, he could still suppress his temper and listen to Xiang Yan making excuses.

Think about it too.Originally, there was not much food in the family, and I wanted to put all my eggs in one basket to buy a beautiful girl and then sell it at a high price under the pretext of receiving a bride price to make a fortune. In the end, not only did I lose all the money from selling the girl, but my grandson was also stupid. Xiang Jianguo The leg is also lame.

There are only dozens of catties of pitiful grain left in the family, which is still subsidized by the government.If they don't think about it, they really have no way out.

But Xiang Yan understands Qian Shurou's character, once she softens her heart, she will stick it out.Xiang Yan still doesn't want to support their family of three.

He only continued cruelly: "Do you really think that I am making fungus bags and selling them to make money? In fact, I am doing piecework. When I make a fungus bag, Xiao Luo will give me a share of food. Everything is just right. If the quantity of the raw materials brought back is not the same as the number of bacteria bags sent over, I will pay for the amount of bacteria bags that are missing according to the price of the mushroom bags. If you don’t believe me, ask Tingting, she didn’t get it right before. I didn't pay attention to burning nearly three catties of raw materials when I burned the stove, so I paid Xiang Luo according to the price of the mushroom bag. Be careful in the future and don't say anything else."

Xiang Yan is not a liar, and she has nose and eyes. Hearing Xiang Yan's words, Qian Shurou knew that the matter would not work out. How could he want to?Naturally stomping and cursing.

But she learned to be smart this time, instead of scolding Xiang Yan, she scolded Xiang Luo.They scolded him for being so clear as a family, scolded him for bullying the second aunt, his daughter, the orphan and widow, and scolded him for watching Xiang Jianguo and his three of them starve to death without reaching out to help.

Qian Shurou thought that Xiang Yan would scold along with her, but Xiang Yan just watched coldly.On the contrary, Xiang Zongyan looked at the bluffing grandma, and actually clapped his hands and laughed.

Seeing the dumbfounded smile of the little grandson, and thinking about the situation at home, Qian Shurou really cried this time.

In the end, Xiang Yan invited the person away, but because she felt sorry for her nephew and grandson, she gave away two catties of rice.

To Qian Shurou, this was tantamount to sending beggars away.But she still suppressed her temper and left.

The story of going around and around reached Xiang Luo's ears, but Xiang Luo didn't comment on it.

It's just that when Xiang Luo hugged Zhu Yan on the bed that night, this matter became the topic of the two shameless conversations before going to bed.

Xiang Luodang told Zhu Yan the bedtime story, but Zhu Yan took it to heart.

"In this case, her danger will be even higher."

"You understand again." Xiang Luo teased.

"A lunatic is very common, and it's not scary. But if a lunatic knows how to restrain and hide himself, then no one knows what else she can do later."

While talking, Zhu Yan yawned, but whatever, she can't hit you now anyway.
