Reborn 1980: The Peasant Girl of Vanves

Chapter 264 The Bamboo Is Lost
Uncle Liu had done his son's wedding in the past few days, and his tired legs were aching. He sat on a rock on the mountain and beat his legs for a long time.

He took out another cigarette pot and filled a pot of cigarette pipes, and just after lighting it, he heard the sound of "cracking" in the bamboo forest.

Uncle Liu casually picked up a palm-sized stone and held it firmly in his hand.

August, who was raised on the mountain, has become more and more rampant recently, and always feels that his old man is easy to bully.

Either stole the straw hat he took off, or snatched his cigarette pipe and gave it to Xiaoxiao.

Uncle Liu was so angry that he couldn't laugh or cry.

There was even a time when dirt got in his shoe, and he just took it off and poured it out, and before he put his foot in it, the August beast ran away.

He yelled but didn't listen, chased him but couldn't catch up, so he ran barefoot up the mountain barefoot to complain about his old man.

Nuo Xiao protects the calf, but says that his dog is the most filial, and even catches dead mice and puts them at his door for him to eat.

Can such a filial beast be beaten?

Of course not!

Today, the beast came to make trouble in the bamboo forest again, and it sounded like it was gnawing on its own bamboo again, trying to lure itself there.

Ridiculous, a living person can't beat a dog?

No matter how wolf it has genes, no matter how smart it is, it is still a beast.

Old man Liu sat on the rock as steady as a rock, fighting wits and courage with the wolf dog August.

But after listening for a while, the sound disappeared.

Old man Liu dug his ears, thinking that he might have heard wrongly because he was too old.

A moment later the voice sounded again.

Old man Liu couldn't hold back anymore, he stood up to have a look, but when he turned around, he met August who was sitting behind him.

August had Old Man Liu's cigarette pocket dangling from his mouth, and before he could run away, he was captured alive by Old Man Liu.

It dropped the cigarette bag full of saliva, "squeaked" into the nearby woods, and disappeared in a flash.

Old man Liu remembered the stone in his hand, threw it towards August's back, and cursed, "You bastard, you will bully honest people!"

Feeling something was wrong after scolding, August sat behind her, what was the matter with the voice in the bamboo forest?
My son just finished chopping bamboo yesterday, so he probably hasn't finished processing it when he goes back.

Besides, when he comes to cut bamboo, he always informs himself in advance, and then he tells him which one can be cut and which one can't.

Old man Liu found a piece of wood and used it as a crutch, lamenting that the years are not forgiving, and said that his legs would not work if he said no.

Walk towards the direction of the source of the sound.

When he got near the sound, he realized that the person had long since disappeared.

There were only bamboo stubbles about two feet high left on the ground, which had been chopped to pieces with a machete.

Old man Liu touched the broken part of the bamboo stubble distressedly, and took a deep breath.

Judging from the thickness of the bamboo, it should be the first batch planted on the mountain.

Old man Liu was not willing to have any of these treasures taken from Nanzhu Mountain be chopped down.

It can be regarded as an object in my hometown, and I have a thought.

I also want to cultivate some good things for Leap Moon.

Things that have cost so much effort are gone if they are gone.

Old man Liu regretted that he was one step too late.

He wanted to chase down the mountain, but his leg was so painful that he couldn't control it.

Hearing a snort behind him, Old Man Liu turned his head to look, and saw August sticking out his tongue again, half-exposed and half-hidden behind a bamboo tree looking at him.

"It's all your fault, you bastard!" The cigarette pouch in Old Man Liu's hand flew over with sparks.

In August, it disappeared like a loach, the smoke pot was on a bamboo tree, and sparks were scattered all over the place.

Old man Liu stepped on the sparks and went down the mountain depressed. When he got home, his legs hurt and he couldn't get up.

Qiaoer saw that her father-in-law was lying on the kang when he came back from the mountain, and after asking about the situation, he quickly took money to find Runyue, wanting to buy some persimmons that could heal the disease.

But unfortunately, Liu Xiangxiang took the persimmon away in a large cart just this morning, and now there is not even a single one in the greenhouse.

Leanyue was not in the greenhouse either, and others didn't understand what was going on with the potions in her watering cans.

Helplessly, Qiaoer came out of the shed and met her third uncle when she returned to the village.

Seeing Qiaoer flustered, the third uncle stopped her and asked what happened?
"My father-in-law's leg hurts, and he can't get up now. It looks very painful. I want to buy some persimmons from Runyue."

There is a strange phenomenon in Qingniu Village. Anyone who has a headache will go to the Runyue Greenhouse to buy persimmons to eat.

Even barefoot doctors are about to lose their jobs.

Some time ago, I heard that he was going to move his family away and go to a place where he was needed.

When the third uncle heard that old man Liu's legs hurt, he thought of the medicine Qin Guan gave him, and said, "Qiaoer, don't go back in a hurry. I have the medicine noodles that Qin Guan brought from the city, and they gave them to me in Leanyue." , A few days ago, my legs hurt so much that I couldn't walk. I just drank the medicine.

I remember there was some left, so I went to pick it up and send it to your father-in-law. "

"Hey, thank you third uncle." Qiao'er sweetly responded, turned and left.

The third uncle sighed, "He's a good boy. If Chen Cuihua and Li Qiangniang were so sensible, how could they end up getting divorced."

When the third uncle walked to the door of his house, he happened to see Li Qiang coming out of the yard.

He left in a hurry, his face was not good-looking, he nodded to the third uncle in a very official manner, and passed by.

The third uncle glanced at his back, entered the yard, and saw Shi Ting was sitting in the yard teaching An An with her arms in his arms.

"What is he doing here?" Third Uncle asked, "Stay away from him in the future, since Chen Cuihua is gone, we have to avoid suspicion and don't be talked about."

Shi Ting nodded in agreement, and immediately said, "Li Qiang said that he was rated as a model of righteousness and bravery by the village, and he will give speeches everywhere in the future, saying that he borrowed our light to express his gratitude."

"Thank you! What a good thing? Who wants to have this happen?

Seeing how arrogant he is, because of his attitude towards Cuihua, he, the village head, should be taken down by him. "

The third uncle groaned for a while, took the medicine bag and left.

When I arrived at Old Man Liu's house, I explained the usage of Old Man Liu's medicinal noodles.

Old man Liu sighed, "This man is old when he says he is old. You said you were walking around the mountains all day, and the bamboo was chopped down right under your nose.

Hold your breath just thinking about it. "

The third uncle asked about the situation, and said with a slap in the mouth, "Just throw away one tree, maybe someone will take it back and use it at home.

It's just a bamboo tree, and Runyue won't blame you, that child is benevolent. "

"Old man, what you said is wrong, I don't blame Leanyue for her fault, I took other people's money, I didn't do a good job, can I feel at ease?

Besides, there is a beginning and there will be a future in this matter, maybe the thief is too bold, thinking that I can't catch up with him, and he has to come again.

Alas, these two legs hurt as soon as they are said to hurt, when I was young..."

The third uncle came up with an idea after listening to old man Liu's recollection, "If you are afraid of losing it again, it's better to be like this..."

The two old people met and discussed for a while, and the third uncle said goodbye and went home.

Before leaving, Qiao'er insisted on taking two catties of fried crispy fish from her mother's house for the third uncle.
