Life in the village is very dull, and everyone knows that the time of judgment is coming soon, and everyone has no intention of raising silkworms and farming.

The men in the village smoked a lot, and the women either ran to Baohua Temple, or often hid in a corner and cried secretly. At this critical time, crying is also considered a very unlucky behavior. If you die, you will cry, and the men in every family will scold you.Everyone believes in luck very much. If luck is vented by crying twice, it will be difficult for the family to survive, so everyone bears it.

But there was one person who couldn't bear it, that was Zheng Rixin's wife, Liao Mingyue, who was fine at first, but one day when everyone was sleeping at noon, she suddenly burst into tears, and it was said that she had a nightmare .Afterwards, she cried all the time, during the day and at night, and some old people cried along with her, which made people in the village uneasy. There was a fight with someone, but fortunately there were too many people in the yard at that time, so they were pulled away.

The women in the village all tried to persuade her, but Liao Mingyue didn't seem to listen to a word. Aunt Ashan's words played a role in the end.

"Mingyue, why are you bothering, be careful to cry and break your body."

"Auntie, I also know that this is bad and bad luck, but I can't help it, as long as I think of... my heart feels like a blunt knife is cutting..." Liao Mingyue began to cry up.

"I know your heart is bitter, which one of the parents in our village is not bitter?" Aunt Ah Shan also knew that Liao Mingyue probably dreamed of something bad, otherwise it wouldn't have happened.

"Why do you think God can be so cruel? We are living a good life, but we have to suffer from this disaster. As long as our family can live a good life, I can bear no matter how poor or hard it is. I just can't bear this..."

"Yes, everyone knows." Aunt Ah Shan helped her cut her hair and said, "But Mingyue, it's really not a big deal for you to cry like this. You see, Zheng Hang is still young, and seeing you cry like this all day long, his heart is broken." What do you think? We can't make the children feel uneasy."

Since then, Liao Mingyue stopped crying, and changed ways to cook food for his son Zheng Hang, and always took him to Baohua Temple.Because there were rumors earlier that the monks of Baohua Temple could also come out for activities during the day, which made many local people almost worship Baohua Temple blindly.

After experiencing so many things, the people in the village have more or less prepared for the worst. Now that the situation is imminent, although many people still cannot accept it, there are not many hysterical people after all. The situation is much better. Of course, the role of Baohua Temple cannot be ignored.

Religion is a very miraculous thing, it can bring peace and tranquility to people at any time, everyone is obviously afraid of death, but when they come to the Buddha Hall, smell the fragrance in the air, listen to the masters knocking Holding the wooden fish and chanting scriptures, it seems that at that moment, death is not so terrible.

Faced with the threat of death, the villagers were not afraid, but generally speaking, they were relatively restrained. At this juncture, Zheng Guoqiang's family fought.There were originally six people in this family. Two of the three daughters married to other places, and the last one left the village without saying a word and went to the girl gang.

Now there are only three people left, and the old couple together are no match for the son. The people in the yard can only hear Zheng Zongjie scolding in the room: "Are you my parents? I don't care if I am still alive in a few days." Got it, I might die, what's wrong with wanting to marry a daughter-in-law before I die? Ah? You guys want to trip me up like this? Okay! I won't marry! You just wait for the death of your children and grandchildren!"

Accompanied by the scolding, there was a bang and bang, and it was unclear whether it was hit on something or someone. It didn't take long for Lin Chunmei to leave the yard with her hair disheveled to ask for help.

"Old Ninth Uncle, the two of them are fighting, please help persuade me." As soon as Lin Chunmei came out, everyone in the yard stopped standing idle, and those who had work on hand were all immersed in their work, and those who had no work to do Find some work too, or simply go back to the house and stay.

Old Ninth Uncle is getting older now, sitting on the stool looks a little hunched, squinting his eyes, he looks far less energetic than a few years ago, he is smoking a cigarette, time seems to go back to a few years ago, At that time, Zheng Guoqiang and his family were also making trouble, and Zheng Xiaoqiu was beaten by Zheng Zongjie. At that time, he asked Zheng Guoqiang why he didn't hold back, and he said: "How can you persuade me, then you can't even beat me together?"

Old Ninth Uncle said so, and everyone in the yard knew about it, and he didn't intend to take care of it. Back then, when the daughter was beaten, the father didn't protect him. Now that he was beaten, they What are these neighbors messing around with?

Lin Chunmei's face froze. Many people heard what Zheng Guoqiang said back to Old Ninth Uncle at the dinner table, and they also talked behind their backs. Now that Old Ninth Uncle brought up the old story again, it was obvious that he was slapping them in the face.But at the moment the house was beating hard. Although Zheng Guoqiang was useless, he was still a strong worker. He was a woman in this village, and he still had to rely on men to get by.

"How can you! If that bastard dares to fight with you, the people in our yard can bury him alive." Lin Chunmei said this loudly, speaking to her son in the room on the one hand, and to the yard on the other. The people here listened, so that they would not continue to stand by.

"You two sons, you can teach yourself." Old Ninth Uncle took a bamboo stick to pass through the pipe, and had no intention of getting up.

"What do you mean, are you not going to help? Uncle Ninth, we have lived in the same yard for decades, and I, Lin Chunmei, have never felt sorry for everyone." Lin Chunmei frowned, and tears rolled away down.

"There's no need to talk about the other side." Old Ninth Uncle cleared the pipe, twisted the shredded tobacco again, and slowly stuffed it on the top of the pipe. "I don't feel guilty for not helping you today." If you grow melons, you will reap beans. Sons are born and raised by them, and they are also taught. Come on, Zheng Guozhong was beaten up today, it is not wronged.

Let this matter be put to the past, even if the people in the village don't think so, they still have to put on a show on the surface. It's okay for a few men to come into the house to persuade them to fight.It's just that during this period of time, no one in the whole village is in a good mood, and they really don't have the heart to take care of their family's bad things.

Lin Chunmei is not a fool either, knowing that it would be useless to talk more in this situation, so she didn't make any more entanglements. The father and son in the room had a ping-pong-pong fight, and naturally they fell silent.

A few days later, Lin Chunmei said to the people in the village: "The father and son are stubborn. When they get angry, they will fight if they are father and son. I can't even hold him back."

Obedient people don't take her seriously, and the village can't hide secrets at all. Why didn't they know why his family had this fight?Isn't it the girlfriend that Zheng Zongjie was talking about, the girl is from the south, and the village she lives in is a bit above the Girls' Gang. The girl didn't agree, and she didn't know what she said to him. Zheng Zongjie beat his parents when he got home.

The old people in the village said that although Zheng Guoqiang was honest and useless, he was not lacking in honesty. If he could marry a good wife, his life would not be as it is today.Lin Chunmei was not happy when she heard this, she stood in the yard and yelled, how is life in his family?What is not as good as others?Is it less sons than others or less cloth than others?Is it because the food in the family is less than others or the house is broken than others?

Lin Chunmei later told the people in the village that her son was good at everything, but he was straight-tempered and soft-hearted, and he was instigated by that vixen behind the scenes. If a woman enters the door, it will be called restlessness in the house.

The young daughters-in-law and girls in the village joked behind their backs: "Whoever marries Zheng Zongjie will be bad luck for eight lifetimes! Now he can be instigated by a woman to beat his parents, and in the future he can be instigated by a mistress." Play the original match, sooner or later."

But in the end, Zheng Zongjie married that woman back home. No matter how much Lin Chunmei and his wife disagreed, they couldn't stop their son from liking her, let alone their son's hard fists.

Gao Chang doesn't know much about these things in the village. He has been busy recently. Considering that the era of peace is coming soon, the economy will soon recover, and the war has just ended. A good time to make a fortune.Instead of leaving the shipload of things moldy, or exchanging them with newly issued currency that is not reliable, Gao Chang felt that it would be better to lend Baibao the principal, and act as a capitalist to get dividends.

At the time of salvage, I didn’t think so. The things were piled up in the warehouse, and I probably knew that I had a lot of money. Now that all these things were moved out of the warehouse and piled together, Gao Chang himself was dumbfounded. Before he knew it, he was already an upstart.

Gold and silver are easy to deal with, regardless of the level of craftsmanship, jewelry and jade are more troublesome, because the quality is uneven, so they have to be priced one by one.

"The pair of jadeite bracelets are still worth it, count as a tael of gold for you." Bai Bao casually picked up the pair of bracelets on the table, looked at them, and quoted a price.

"I don't sell half a catty."

"It's just two broken stones, what's a good thing, if it's not for a pair, I don't want a tael of gold." Bai Bao tried his best to belittle this pair of bracelets. He has already collected a lot of things tonight and used gold for everything. In terms of pricing, the gold he promised to Gao Chang at this moment is enough to make a gold bed.

"What good thing do you think gold is?" Gao Chang snorted at his beautiful jade stones. Jade is not worth much, but gold is not expensive these days. "Do you know how many people have died in the past few years? Which country in the world has no gold reserves, and now the gold has fallen into the hands of a few people. When the war is over, they will designate it to spend, and then I will carry a piece of cloth out. You can come back with a big shiny golden ring."

"That's not half a catty." Bai Bao hummed, anyway, he just wouldn't give half a catty, since he still has a wife and son to support.

"Tsk, be stingy, like that, four taels, if you want it, I don't want you to keep it for yourself." After haggling for half the night, Gao Chang was tired and annoyed, but he couldn't do without bargaining. It was not easy for him and Rhubarb to get these things in and out of a hundred catties of gold, so they had to be sold for a good price.

"Accepted." Why don't you accept it, just change hands casually, it's a guaranteed profit without losing money.Bai Bao waved his hand, and the brother behind him took a small wooden box and packed the pair of bracelets. With a packing box, the value of the pair of bracelets increased. Back then, they were randomly piled up in the warehouse by Gao Chang At that time, no matter how you looked at it, it looked like a bargain sold at a roadside stall.

"Let's get here tonight, there is not much left, and we can finish it tomorrow night." For several days in a row, I have been sorting out these miscellaneous things, and the rest have been settled, and now only a part is left. Priced jade gemstones.

"The rest, how about I take all the two taels of gold?" Bai Bao saw that there seemed to be a loophole to take advantage of, and quickly made a seemingly generous suggestion.

"It's a good idea, what if I'm demented?" Gao Chang didn't buy it, and asked Suobo to write a receipt according to the transaction amount tonight, and gave it to Bai Bao to sign and mark, and then asked him to store it carefully. This child is careful, It's good to let him manage the accounts, and it can save a lot of worry.

"Boss, come out and listen to the radio." Rosen walked to the door of the room where they were, and his expression was very serious when he spoke.

"What's the matter, tell me." Bai Bao didn't move, he probably already guessed what was going on.

"Over there on the plateau, a replacement has been made."

"Did you mention the policy against the old humans?" Bai Bao was not at all surprised that the mutants finally ruled their country. After all, it was doomed from the day the blue sun appeared. ending.

"Mutations are encouraged, but if they are determined not to carry out mutations, the government will make other arrangements. In specific circumstances, they will send representatives down at that time."

When Gao Chang and the others returned to the yard, they found that Uncle Wu and Zheng Guozhong from the side of Xiwei were there, and almost the entire village was crowded in their yard.

"It's time, let's choose a date." The fifth uncle was old and frail, his voice was unsteady, with a slight trill, and when he said this, everyone in the yard trembled in their hearts.
