Splendid peasant girl busy farming

Yang Ruoqing nodded.

Yang Huazhong then asked a few of them: "Since the news has been released, our family also bought a bunch of things for banquets as bait, and waited for the fish to jump into the pond we dug to eat the bait. There's nothing wrong with this, so where should our group of people settle down tonight, Qing'er, Da'an, you brothers and sisters should tell me the truth now, right?"

It's not surprising that Yang Huazhong asked this question, mainly because when everyone was discussing the plan to catch thieves, Da'an proposed a smoke bomb, leaving only four members of the Luo family, including two babies.

In the eyes of outsiders, it is enough for Luo Tiejiang to take care of Wang Cuilian and the two young children alone. He must be too busy to take care of so many houses in the front and back yards. Yang Huazhong's family.

None of the Sun family and Yang Huazhong's family stayed behind. The news was that Yang Huaming and the others went on patrol a few times at night.

Therefore, for a theft team that is bold and knows how to use wisdom to cover its theft with a mysterious cloak, tonight is undoubtedly the best time to make a move.

During the once-in-a-century vacancy period, all the important people who made them jealous all went to Sunjiagou, and sweeping Granny Sun's grave is a major event for the Luo family, Sun family, and Yang family, so if this good opportunity tonight is missed, During the year, it may only be petty theft.

If you seize this good opportunity tonight, you may turn around in this lifetime!

Even if Yang Huazhong and the others stayed on guard, for the thieves, in the face of attractive benefits, they could risk anything and gamble.

Wealth is in danger!
"Father, we will go to the old house to rest for a while, and then we will go to Qingshui Town by another road."

We've already reached the Sunjiagou side, so there's no need for Yang Ruoqing to hide anymore.

"What are you going to Qingshui Town for? Do you want to make a big detour before going back to the village?" Yang Huazhong was puzzled and asked again.

Yang Ruoqing smiled, "Father, we won't go back if we don't want to go back tonight. I have already arranged a guest room, charcoal fire basin, meals, and everything in the Tianxiang Building in the town. Let's drive there tonight Stay overnight and return to the village tomorrow.”

"Ah? Go live in the town?" Yang Huazhong pondered for a while, "That's not bad, the Sunjiagou side can't be settled. If we go to the village again, the plan may come to naught. Everyone can't stay outside and wait. At dawn, it’s better to go to the restaurant in the town!”

Xiaoan pointed to the children in front, and said to Yang Huazhong: "Baobuqi, these little guys are eager to sleep in another place!"

Having made up their minds, everyone stepped up and headed towards Sunjiagou.

Suddenly, two mountain men came forward, the older one was about the same age as Xiaojie's father, and the younger one was probably in his early thirties.

The two of them came all the way here, and when they saw Lao Suntou and his team, their eyes lit up, and the older one directly shouted: "Uncle, Uncle, I am Mo Gen!"

The old grandson was on his way, feeling a little lost.Hearing someone calling him suddenly, he raised his head and saw the two people who came over, he was also taken aback for a moment, and then his face disappeared, revealing a bit of surprise and excitement.

"It's Mogen? Why are you here?" The old grandson came out in front of Mogen and his son.

Mo Gen first asked his son to salute the old grandson, then he held the old grandson's hand and said excitedly: "Before I heard that the children at home ran back and said that they saw mule carts and a large group of people going to the forest behind the village. Thinking that this area is the ancestral cemetery of your uncle’s family, and it’s approaching the end of the new year, I guess you should come back to visit the grave, so I hurriedly brought my eldest son to the mountain to find you, and took you to my house for lunch!”

……

Soon, Old Suntou brought Mo Gen and his son to Yang Huazhong and the others. Both of them were acquaintances, and they greeted each other, and then Old Suntou told Yang Huazhong and the others about Mo Gen's visit.

When the old man said these words, he could hear the joy in his voice.

Because this was unexpected to him, he originally thought that the villagers in Sunjiagou would at most meet on the road to say hello, even if they were still thinking about the old acquaintance, he did not expect Mogen to come up to the mountain to invite dinner in person.

Yang Huazhong, Xiaojie's father and the others understood Mogen's intention, and they all politely declined Mogen's offer.

"We brought dry food, and we will rest in the old house later, and then we will paste the Spring Festival couplets and we will leave." Xiaojie's father said.

Mo Gen said: "How can you eat dry food? How tiring it is to travel through mountains and rivers. Dry food is useless!"

Yang Huazhong also nodded with a smile, "Yes, Brother Mogen, I really don't need to disturb you all, it's the twelfth lunar month, and every household is busy."

Mo Gen said: "Old man, why are you being so polite to me? I went out of the mountains a while ago and went to your house for a meal. Do you think I am so polite to you?"

After all, Mo Gen came directly to grab Yang Huazhong's shoulders, "You're not welcome today, you have to go to my house for dinner anyway."

Yang Huazhong smiled and went to see the old grandson.

Mogen let go again and Yang Huazhong came to the old grandson and said respectfully, "Uncle, I will help you."

The old grandson laughed and said, "Mo Gen, we are a big bunch of people..."

Mo Gen looked around and said with a smile: "Uncle, are you worried about making me poor? Don't worry, this year you have floods outside, but the weather here in our mountains is smooth, the rice harvest is bumper, and there is only one meal. , I can still afford it!"

Now that Mo Gen has talked all the way to this point, if he doesn't go again, he really won't give face to the other party.

Moreover, to be fair, as long as people from Sunjiagou go out of the mountains and pass through Changping Village, as long as they are willing to go to Lao Suntou, Lao Suntou will serve the best dishes at home.

In this way, everyone entered the Sunjiagou together and went straight to the old house of the Sun family.

The yard door of the old house is locked and the lock is rusty.

The thick felt cloth and thatch on the courtyard gate were lifted by the wind, and a corner of the felt cloth danced in the wind.

The wall of the one-person-high courtyard is covered with weeds, which should be relatively lush in spring and summer, but in the middle of winter, they are all withered and yellow, softly sticking to the wall, together with the dead old locust tree in the courtyard, as if telling With the vitality of the past.

The old grandson took off the keys at his waist, found one out of it, and inserted it into the lock with a slight trembling...

With a creak, the courtyard door was pushed open, and Lao Suntou led the crowd into the courtyard covered with dead leaves.

There are several adobe main houses in the front, with wing rooms and stove rooms on both sides.

Everything is cold, and the chimney has long since stopped emitting smoke.

There is a stone trough at the bottom of the outer wall of the kitchen. This stone trough was used by Lao Suntou and his family to feed and drink the chickens, ducks and pigs when they were still living in the mountains many years ago.

Now the stone trough has long since dried up, and the inside is also full of dust and dead leaves, almost filling the stone trough.

With his head heaving and his chest heaving, the old grandson took off the bunch of keys at his waist, and pushed open the doors of every room in the yard next to Shun'er, and then opened the windows. The dust choked his nostrils and the musty smell rushed...

Mo Gen went home to prepare meals, and Yang Huazhong and the others helped Lao Suntou clean up the yard, check and repair the doors and windows.

The women left He Lian'er and Luo Baobao to look after the children, and the others also rolled up their sleeves, some went into the stove to prepare hot water, and some began to clean the inside of the house.

Carrying water, chopping firewood, sweeping the yard, wiping the table, children chasing and playing in the yard...

Suddenly, the courtyard that had been covered in dust for a long time suddenly became lively, and smoke rose from the chimney...
