Chapter 38: Disputes
The county magistrate's fart did not make Secretary Qin happy. He directly asked the accountant to take his group to the field to take a closer look. After reading it, his eyebrows became tighter.
Secretary Qin talked to the villagers again and learned that many people in the village were about to break down, he was even more anxious.
They arrived in Xiaoqian Village after 2:00 p.m., and Secretary Qin looked carefully and didn't prepare to return to the county until after 5:00 p.m.
The county magistrate was very dissatisfied. He said in advance to let the people in Xiaoqian Village prepare well. Unexpectedly, these people did not listen at all and stabbed the basket in front of Secretary Qin.
The county magistrate was angry in his heart, hoping that Secretary Qin would only pay attention to the drought and not find anything else. It would be good to leave Chengkou County as soon as possible.
The accountant looked at the county magistrate's face and knew that he was not satisfied with what had done in Xiaoqian Village this time and sent them out of the village with bitter heart.
"Captain!" As soon as he came out of a villager's house, Accountant Xu saw that Wang Desheng and the secretary blushed excitedly. They held a handful of grass in their hands, but they were still cautious, like holding a great baby.
Wang Wei and Xiao Xiao walked slowly behind, in sharp contrast to the two in front of them.
Wang Desheng and the secretary were so excited that they didn't notice the group of people beside Accountant Xu for a moment. Wang Desheng waved to Accountant Xu: "Come on, this thing seems to be really useful. Let's organize the people on the team to go up the mountain and try it into the field."
"Captain Wang!" When the county magistrate saw that Wang Desheng appeared, he actually ignored them directly. His face suddenly turned black. The secretary next to him shouted hurriedly: "Didn't you see Secretary Qin and Comrade County Magistrate here?"
Wang Desheng was immersed in the joy of excitement. Suddenly, when he heard the county magistrate's secretary's words, there was a moment of confusion in his eyes. After recovering to his senses, he hurried forward. Although he did not know Secretary Qin, he stood at the front and saw that the person with the highest position was undoubtedly him.
"Secretary Qin..." Wang Desheng is not good at these. It is inevitable to see such a high-level government official.
Secretary Qin waved his hand to the following most basic production team cadres: "It's okay." He looked curiously at Ji Ji Cao in Wang Desheng's hand: "What is this? It seems to be precious?"
Wang Desheng's face began to flush again and said things intermittently.
Wang Wei was not interested in listening to what they said, so he took Xiao Xiao to prepare to go back. Anyway, Ji Jicao's story had been told to the village, and it was their own business as for what to do later.
Xiao Xiao looked at Secretary Qin and his party curiously, and then looked away without interest. I have been experimenting on the mountain for so long these days, and I haven't made out with Wang Wei for several days.
She looked at Wang Weijun's face, suddenly stretched out her tongue, licked her lips, and smiled sweetly at him.
After understanding Xiao Xiao's hint of his movements, he trembled and immediately jumped straight above his head from his heel. Wang Wei hurriedly and stopped opening, and the pace under his feet accelerated.
"Mr. Wei, second sister, don't go yet. Secretary Qin has something to ask you." The two had walked a long distance, but Wang Desheng said that they found Ji Jicao.
Although it sounds incredible, Secretary Qin still has a glimmer of hope.
Wang Weicai, no matter what these people are, not senior officials, he just wants to go home now, immediately and immediately.
Xiao Xiao pulled him: "Go ahead, I heard that people from the province. Even if Captain Wang and others can plant Jiji grass, they can only plant them in Xiaoqian Village. If they are senior officials from the province, if they see Jijicao is useful, they can also plant them in other places, and many people can be saved."
Wang Wei forcibly stopped his footsteps, suppressed his turbulent and turbulent heart, looked pale, curled his lips: "I have never seen those people. What does it have to do with me!" He said so, but led Xiao Xiao in the direction.
Xiao Xiao looked at his back and shook his head funnyly: a right-to-fool guy.
Wang Wei pulled Xiao Xiao to stand in front of Secretary Qin, and his green eyes were immediately seen clearly by everyone.
The mayor of Wang and others looked different when they saw Wang Wei's eyes: curious, surprised, and inquiry.
Most of Wang Wei's suffering came from these eyes. Seeing so many people staring at him as if they were strange, they immediately wanted to turn around and leave. Bullshit!
Xiao Xiao suddenly smiled and said, "Is my husband's eyes beautiful?" You may have never seen such a beautiful pupil." It looks completely proud of.
Wang Wei's discompair disappeared in an instant. Yes, as long as Xiao Xiao doesn't dislike him, how can others want to have nothing to do with him? His eyebrows suddenly stretched, and he could still look straight at his people back.
Xiao Xiao's words made everyone recover from surprise. Just looking at Wang Wei's eyes, he found that the little couple in front of him, the handsome man and the softness of the woman, were completely different from the other colorful villagers, standing together like a pair of people.
The county magistrate felt a little relieved a little. At least his treatment was not all the kind of hungry people with yellow and thin skin!
Xiao Xiao was generous. Wang Wei had just been stared at by so many people, but he was only dissatisfied and not embarrassed at all. Their performance fell into Secretary Qin's eyes, which made him wonder that there would be such an outstanding little couple in a remote village.
However, now he is all focused on Ji Ji Cao in Wang Desheng's hand and said with a smile, "This lesbian is right, but the color of her eyes is different. Although it is not common, it is not that they are rare and strange."
Wang Wei moved when he heard this: "Is there anyone else like me?"
Secretary Qin nodded: "Of course, it's not a strange thing."
So he is not a monster at all?
Xiao Xiao knew what was thinking from Wang Wei's expression and gently lit the palm of his hand with his fingers.
Wang Wei came to his senses and suddenly smiled at Xiao Xiaocan: He is not a monster, so Xiao Xiao is not the monster's daughter-in-law.
Xiao Xiao understood it, and his heart was more and more distressed.
"Comrades, can you tell in detail how you found this kind of grass? You can really live if you stick it in the ground at will? Is it really growing as fast as Captain Wang said? Secretary Qin was so anxious that he had to interrupt the little couple.
Xiao Xiao patted Wang Wei on the back of his hand and said softly, "Well, Captain Wang may have told you about the process of discovering Ji Jicao. More than ten days ago, while I was waiting for my husband to come back from hunting in the cave, I accidentally found this grass by the stream. At that time, I was so bored that I cut this grass into small pieces and inserted it casually into the open space of the cave. I think it was about 12 days ago. Today, when Wang Wei and I went to the cave again, we found that the grass roots that had been randomly inserted had grown into a complete grass, and the dry ground had become extremely wet.
Wang Desheng just said it, but after all, he also listened to Xiao Xiao and Wang Wei, and he didn't see it with his own eyes. Now everyone is so sure to hear what the parties concerned say, they shout that it is impossible and can't help but feel a little hopeful.
Secretary Qin, who had just been gentle and calm, suddenly looked excited. He stared at Xiao Xiao and asked hurriedly, "Comrade, are you sure you remember correctly?" What kind of grass did you insert in at that time? And there are only about ten days?"
Don't blame him for losing his anger. If this is true, it can save countless lives.
Xiao Xiao nodded, "I confirm."
The excitement on the faces of Secretary Qin and his party added a little, but the matter of Jijicao was unheard of. They had to suppress the hope in their hearts and were afraid that the greater the hope, the greater the disappointment in the end.
After Secretary Qin calmed down, he said to Xiao Xiao and Wang Wei, "I will let people try all kinds of things. If the effect is really like what you said, comrades, then you will make great contributions. In the three northern provinces, no, the people of the whole country have to thank you."
Xiao Xiao waved his hand and said, "It's okay if you don't make contributions. If it succeeds, I want to ask the secretary for one thing."
Wang Wei looked at her expression and seemed to know what Xiao Xiao was trying to say.
"Oh, what is it?" Secretary Qin asked curiously.
"You also saw the color of my husband's eyes. The villagers didn't know that there were different pupils. They said that my husband was a monster. When he was a child, he suffered a lot of grievances. So I want to ask the secretary, if Ji Ji Cao really works, could you please tell everyone that his eyes are ordinary and not monsters at all, but more beautiful than their lives?
Secretary Qin listened to it silently and was called a monster. I also wanted to know that this little comrade must have suffered because of his eyes when he was a child.
"Oh, that's it? Comrade Xiao, you should know that if Ji Ji Cao is really useful, it is a great achievement. Do you just need me to help me say a word?" Maybe Ji Ji Cao gave him a modest hope, and Secretary Qin was also in the mood to make a joke with Xiao Xiao.
Xiao Xiao and Wang Wei looked at each other: "I'm sure it's extremely important to me."
Everything is rooted in the ignorance of Xiaoqian Village and the Wang family. It is easy to break their stubborn folly, as long as a person with a high enough insight in their eyes is high enough and knowledge speaks. They have caused so deep damage to Wang Wei with their ignorance, but it is so easy and ridiculous to overthrow it.
Although he didn't care about the pain imposed on Wang Wei at the beginning, Xiao Xiao didn't want him to support it. She hoped that he could completely get rid of all the darkness of the past, be calm and confident with her, and look back without scars in his heart. Those who have hurt Wang Wei, Xiao Xiao should also make them clearly realize their mistakes.
The two looked at each other, and Wang Wei also understood Xiao Xiao's meaning. His eyes suddenly turned red. Don't turn his head and mutter, "Fool!"
Secretary Qin sighed that the relationship between the two little comrades was really good.
After all, it comes to such an important event that may solve the drought. After Secretary Qin agreed to Xiao Xiao, he took the inspection team and Wang Desheng to the village office to arrange the task eagerly, hoping to see the effect of Jiji Cao as soon as possible.
Xiao Xiao and Wang Wei didn't care about the rest.
After the meeting, Wang Desheng hurriedly took the villagers to the mountains to pick Jiji grass, and then grabbed Wang Wei to ask about the cultivation of Jiji grass, so he quickly asked the members of Xiaoqian Village to start inserting Jiji grass.
The village cadres mobilized the whole village. Whether men, women, old and young came together, everyone began to insert in the big sun.
It took a whole two days to insert these small pieces of grass all over the whole village.
At first, the members were confused and sneered at Wang Desheng's words one after another. Can such a little grass be inserted into the water under the ground? Let's not say whether there is such an effect.
The ground is cracked, and the crops are dying. What grass can live in? And it's still part by paragraph. Isn't it nonsense?
With this effort, it's better to pick more water to irrigate the ground.
Someone ran directly to several village cadres and said not toss around. What's impossible is to do and let everyone do it against the big sun?
He was roared by Wang Desheng: "Why do you know it's messing around?" Ji Ji Cao is all Wang Desheng's hope. At this time, he was not angry when he splashed cold water.
"What's wrong with the big sun? Is it more uncomfortable than your hunger in the future?
Wang Desheng, the captain, has a very prestige in Xiaoqian Village. He does things fairly. With a small harvest, he can still be punished by the above, and he also strives to leave more food for the members. For this, he is everyone's benefactor.
As soon as he opened his mouth, the person next to him persuaded him, "Since the captain said so, let's insert it well. Even if it's useless, it's a waste of effort. Don't we rural people just eat by strength? Speaking of which, I still don't believe that this kind of grass will be useful. When Wang Desheng fainted, he was sick and went to the hospital, listening to the nonsense of Xiao Xiao and Wang Wei.
How can there be such magical grass in the world!
A mason surnamed Zhang inserted a grass section in his hand, and reason told everyone that there was no such grass in the world. But when he thought of the condensation at the beginning, he didn't believe it at all, but now he has become his treasure for building walls.
He always feels that Xiao Xiao and Wang Wei have special skills. Maybe this grass really works? Thinking of this, his hand couldn't help trembling. If it really worked, then he... he kowtowed to the couple!
His family has a large population, and the food distributed last year was still far from being far from satisfying the whole family. Seeing that there may be no harvest this year, the family has begun to drink only one porridge with wild vegetables mixed with coarse grains at noon every day. Even so, it can be mixed until August this year at most.
If there is no food in the second half of the year, the whole family will starve to death.
To save the crops, it saved the lives of their whole family!
Although they didn't believe it, it took the members two days to insert these small pieces of grass throughout the village.
Behind it is the anxious waiting.
Of course, this anxious wait is limited to those who have hidden hope for the grass. Most people don't believe it at all. After inserting the grass, they still pick up water to water the ground, dig weed everywhere, pick wild fruits, and store everything that may fill the stomach when famine comes.
Some people also complained that Xiao Xiao and Wang Wei were uneasy and kind-hearted and deliberately nonsense, which made them waste so much effort in vain. In the past two days, they can also dig more wild vegetables.
This came to Wang Wei's ears and was rubbed directly on the ground by him.
He beat people to the ground and poohed, "How rare your strength is?" Fuck, as expected, you shouldn't care about so many things. I care whether you are dead or alive. He also said that my daughter-in-law was uneasy and kind-hearted. Does your mother have a brain?" That's why he beat people very angrily. Because he said he wanted to think about it, Xiao Xiao got out Ji Ji Cao for four days and four nights in a row.
He doesn't care what others say about him, but he can't say a slander to Xiao Xiao.
However, in a complaint, Wang Wei beat people. Other people who believed that he and Xiao Xiao were nonsense. Although they didn't dare to say anything on the surface, they were very dissatisfied.
Didn't it mean that the grass would work in just over ten days? Well, they waited. After ten days, the grass withered and died in the ground. Let's see what Wang Wei and Xiao Xiao can say.
The whole village, whether just holding hope or wanting to see Wang Wei and Xiao Xiao jokes, began to wait anxiously.
In the educated youth point, Bai Duo pulled Jiang Wenwen and also talked about Ji Ji Cao: "Wen Wen, do you think Ji Ji Cao's story is true?"
Jiang Wenwen was reading a book and did not raise her when she heard the words. She replied faintly, "Non-sense." She hasn't even heard of this kind of grass. If it were so magical, future generations of media would have rushed to report it. How could it be true?
Bai Duo said, "But I kind of a little believe that I always think Xiao Xiao and Wang Wei can't lie." When she said this, there was strange excitement in her eyes.
Jiang Wenwen finally looked up and said, "Why do you believe in them so much?"
Bai Duo held his face and said, "Don't you think they are a good match?"
Jiang Wenwen twitched the corners of her mouth and looked at this friend who had always been simple. She was very puzzled: "Is there any relationship between the two?"
Bai Duo smiled and said, "They are a good match. Both of them are so beautiful that they make me feel good. I think they won't lie."
Jiang Wenwen said, "Your feeling is really casual! Wait, it won't take ten days. You will die of grass tomorrow. Xiao Xiao, a liar, not only pretended to behaved in front of her, but also cheated Wang Wei. This time, she actually wanted to deceive the whole village, and he probably came up in the limelight.
Thanks to her previous high-looking, she was completely mentally retarded!
After thinking about this, the depression that had been deceived by Xiao Xiao before suddenly swept away.
Bai Duo and Jiang Wenwen were talking about Xiao Xiao's couple. Xiao Xiao was sitting on the kang and watching several sisters eat.
Due to the last disturbance, the atmosphere of the Xiao family was reduced to a freezing point.
Xiao's father was angry with Wang Wei and Xiao Xiao, and he didn't dare to settle accounts with Wang Wei, so he put his anger on several daughters.
However, the third sisters and they were not submissive. As soon as Xiao's father scolded, their sisters hugged back, and the family was noisy.
Xiao's mother knew that she hugged Xiao Guoxing and cried and begged several daughters to listen to Xiao's father's words. How could their daughters contradict their father like this?
Several daughters were so disobedient and saw the famine coming this year, Xiao's father was so cruel that Xiao's mother directly deducted the rations of several sisters. They didn't have enough to eat, but now they are more than half less than half of them on the original basis. Almost every day, there is only one and a half bowl of wild vegetable porridge that can take pictures of people.
The sixth sister couldn't stand it anymore. She cried and beg for food from Xiao's mother. Xiao's mother cried sadly in her arms, but her words hurt people like a knife: "Six sister, bear it. Who calls you daughters? There is not much food at home, so she can't starve national prosperity..."
Hearing Xiao's mother, the third sister and fourth sister lost the desire to argue.
They couldn't stay at home, so they came to the new house to accompany Xiao Xiao. At the beginning, several big ones didn't say to Xiao Xiao. The sixth sister couldn't stand it. She cried hungry when she was playing here.
Hearing the reason, Xiao Xiao was furious. How many daughters are they going to starve to death?
From this day on, Xiao Xiao ordered several sisters to come to her every afternoon. The food was not good and took it out in front of them. After all, the house was built. According to their supply, the grain taken out from the Wang family should be empty.
However, some wild fruits, wild vegetables and meat picked after watering the fruit trees with breeding solution can be taken out and let the three sisters cushion their stomachs.
Xiao Sanmei and others ate Wang Wei's roast rabbit meat and wild vegetable soup. They glanced at Wang Wei, who was polishing wood in the yard, and couldn't help worrying in a low voice: "Second sister, it must not be easy for my brother-in-law to get these things. We can also last for a few days. Don't give us these things in the future." She was afraid that they would become Xiao Xiao's oil bottles, which would make Wang Wei unhappy.
Not to mention food now, even wild vegetables are the most precious things. After all, their parents are reluctant to give them wild vegetable soup!
"It's okay. You can eat it. I dare to give it for you. I won't make myself hungry, and your brother-in-law doesn't care about it." Xiao Xiao took a look at Wang Wei, who was digging wood, because he heard other people's gossip.
Xiao Sanmei had to nod, but she made up her mind to take her sister to the second sister as little as possible.
"Second sister, where did you pick this wild vegetable? It's so fresh, fat and tender, and the peach is delicious. It doesn't look like wild peaches at all." After eating the rabbit meat, several girls picked up the peaches and began to chew them.
"Your brother-in-law followed Zhuangzhuang to pick it. I heard that he went to the mountain behind him." Xiao Xiao said calmly.
She said so that several sisters couldn't eat it. The mountains behind them were deep mountains and old forests. Even if the famine was so serious in those years, few people dared to break in.
Let's start with tears. The villagers often say when they scare children is to throw them behind the mountain if they are disobedient. Behind this mountain refers to the deep mountain behind the small front mountain.
"We won't eat, second sister. Let the second brother-in-law not go. What if something happens."
"It's strong. It's okay." Xiao Xiao had to coax.
The third sister was even more determined not to eat what Wang Wei got for. She turned off the topic and talked about Ji Jicao, who had just planted yesterday: "Many people in the village don't believe it. If you don't believe it, don't believe it. Some people scold you and your brother-in-in-law." Speaking of which, she was furious, "Why scold you? They know that you and brother-in-law are at least still thinking about it. Besides, Captain Wang and others gave up the seed, and it's not your turn to be scolded. Wait, the effect comes out. They have to kowtowed to you and your brother-in-law!"
Several sisters even nodded.
"What do I want them to kowtoow?" Xiao Xiao laughed and said, "No one else believes it. Do you believe me like that?"
Several sisters' faces stagnated, and Xiao Sanmei told the truth, "Let's... half of it, but who let you be our second sister? This is called losing."
While the people of Xiaoqian village waited anxiously, the first day passed, there was no movement in the field, and the grass inserted into the soil did not appear.
It was still the case the next day.
. ...
At this time, some people in the village not only mocked Wang Wei and Xiao Xiao, but also complained that the village cadres: at a glance, they knew that it was Xiao Xiao and Wang Wei's nonsense. However, Captain Wang and others easily wrote it, and let the whole production team fool around.
Of course, some people also talked to Wang Wei for Xiao Xiao: "Isn't it ten days yet? Besides, even if it really doesn't work, Xiao Xiao and Wang Wei are also trying to save the crops."
Until the fifth day.
Secretary Qin couldn't wait in the county and took people to Xiaoqian Village early in the morning.
