Chapter 324 I think you're itching for a beating, you want some meat on a bamboo stick. (Untitl
Over the years, most of the pent-up frustration in my heart suddenly dissipated;
It was like a gentle breeze, blowing away the thick fog that had obscured our vision for years;
The road no longer leads to endless forks. With one hand behind his back, he strokes his beard and watches people standing or sitting on the ridges of the fields, some holding children, some carrying water jugs, laughing heartily as they talk about something exciting.
Headmaster Chen couldn't help but laugh out loud as well.
Master Chen was unaware that Headmaster Chen had already gone through a whole drama in his mind; he only thought that his uncle's reaction was somewhat unusual.
It seemed to become more genuine, and the person's expression became much more amiable.
Although I don't know why, it's obvious that this kind of uncle is easier to get along with.
Master Chen leaned closer and said, "Uncle, since you're so happy, why don't you come over and say hello?"
Master Chen turned his head and looked at Master Chen, "There's plenty of time in the future, but..."
"What?" Master Chen asked.
Headmaster Chen chuckled lightly, "You won't have that chance."
Master Chen's face quickly fell, and he muttered to himself, "You old geezer, you're really wicked."
I kindly offered you a ride, but you're thinking of eating it all by yourself.
Who says I have no chance? Humph!
Master Chen straightened his expression and said, "Uncle, don't forget, Chen Zhao will be studying at the primary school from now on. It's only natural for me to come to see my son every few days, let alone accompany him to study."
Upon hearing this, Chen Shanzhang was not annoyed. He simply said, "Oh," and added, "Then when you come back next time, please give me a ride."
Master Chen was shocked. "No, didn't you say you wanted to enjoy this all to yourself? How dare you say that?"
Master Chen: "Doesn't my uncle have a carriage?"
Chen Shanzhang didn't detect his nephew's displeasure at all, and said in a serious tone, "Don't horses need to eat grass? Besides, you're going to make this trip anyway, and your carriage doesn't need an old man like me."
Master Chen: "..." I can't argue with him, I simply can't argue with him!
He cupped his hands in a gesture of respect, admitting defeat.
While things were peaceful and harmonious on this side, things were quite different for Li Da and his mother on the other side of the river.
When Lin Chang'er said they were in charge of composting, she really meant they were only responsible for composting.
The Gu family alone includes their main residence, a primary school, three cesspools in the workshop, a stable, and a cattle pen.
Yesterday, someone came to the Gu family and said that the Gu family has a lot of land, and if it's not enough, you can go to their house to choose some.
There are so many to choose from, there's simply too much to choose from!
He couldn't understand where Lin Chang'er, a woman, got so much land.
And have all the families in Linshui Village gone mad?
Perfectly good manure, they don't use it themselves, but instead use it to do favors for others.
That's not all. What's even more outrageous is that he originally thought that Lin Chang'er couldn't possibly come and keep an eye on things every day.
Even if you can't escape, you can at least avoid her gaze, right?
Who would have thought that those old women from Linshui Village would be like a stubborn leech, practically glued to the mother and son?
Despite the strong smell, they could still sit on the edge of the field, eating melon seeds and chatting. Whenever the mother and son showed any sign of slacking off, those old women would stand with their hands on their hips and start cursing. I really don't know how much money Lin Chang'er paid to hire them.
Besides that, the person Li Da felt most resentful about was the one named Duo Xuyu.
This person appeared out of nowhere, and said that he was a long-term worker hired by Lin Chang'er. He worked with them during the day and lived in the same courtyard with them at night.
The moment he and his mother made even the slightest sound, this person would come running as if he could smell it like a dog.
During the day, even though they were supposed to work together, they acted like overseers, sitting on the edge of the field supervising the work.
At this moment, he even asked those old women for a handful of melon seeds and started chatting.
Those old women, I don't know if they're stupid or not, especially the one in the dark blue shirt, who's already planning to marry her granddaughter off to that Xu guy.
Li Da was already feeling frustrated and kept thinking about quitting.
But when he thought about how painful it was for that woman Lin Chang'er to hit people, he could only endure it.
But then, they heard laughter coming from the other side of the river.
Li Da finally couldn't hold back any longer. He slammed the manure ladle on the ground with a "bang" and cursed, "What are you laughing at? You've never laughed in your life... You're making so much noise..."
However, before he could finish his curse, three old women and a lot of fish on the ridge all looked at him.
Four pairs of eyes locked onto him, each one frowning, as if they wanted to devour him.
Li's legs went weak and he almost knelt down. He hurriedly picked up the manure ladle and explained, "I, I... it's just that the laughter from the other side was a bit loud and disturbed my work."
"Really?" Many fish stuffed the unfinished sunflower seeds into their pockets, then picked up a bamboo stick. "I think you're asking for a beating. I told you to do some work, but who told you to go and listen to people laughing!"
He took the bamboo stick and went over, making a show of force as he was about to hit Li Da.
Li Qiulan quickly came over to protect her son, "Don't be embarrassed, don't be embarrassed. The laughter is coming from the other side. It's not like we can just ignore it, is it?"
Many fish ignored her excuses and casually lashed out with the bamboo stick at Li Da behind Li Qiulan, cursing as they did so, "What, do you have to report to your brother Casey just because he smiled? If you're so capable, why don't you call them over to kowtow and apologize to you and your daughter?"
No one knew how he was whipping him, but no matter how Li Da dodged or how Li Qiulan blocked, the bamboo stick seemed to have eyes, striking Li Da every time without missing a beat.
Li Da jumped up and down, yelling and shouting, "We all work for the Gu family, why can they rest whenever they want and talk whenever they want, while we have to work like illegal coal miners, with no time to rest once we're in the field?"
"Why? Because he's a good person. It's your fault for not behaving like a decent human being."
Of course, Li Da would not admit it, and shouted, "You're talking nonsense. We're all human. Lin Chang'er is deliberately mistreating my mother and me. We work for three hours a day, and at noon we eat communal meals in the workshop, which include meat, vegetables, and soup."
"Why is it that my daughter and I work four hours a day and can only eat steamed buns with vegetables, and there's no food in the soup?"
Many fish laughed out loud, "Don't you know what season it is? The flood just passed, and in the neighboring disaster-stricken counties, some are suffering from epidemics, and others from famine. People are just thanking their lucky stars if they can get something to eat and don't starve to death."
"Don't you know what kind of person you are? You still dare to compete with the brothers on the other side? You're not satisfied with steamed buns and vegetables, are you? Fine, when we get back I'll talk to the landlady. Starting tomorrow, you guys won't be eating steamed buns anymore. Three coarse flour buns a day, and three bowls of vegetable soup. You'll be living the dream."
These words angered everyone, and even the three old women sitting on the edge of the field were not happy about it.
Just as Granny Zhou finished eating the melon seeds in her hand, she clapped her hands, stood up, and cursed, "You deserve to be struck by lightning! You beat women and children! Why doesn't God send down a bolt of lightning to kill you two?"
"It's only because Chang'e was kind enough not to send you to jail and even gave you food that you're jumping around here like this."
"A white flour bun costs one cent! I think you're just bored and have nothing better to do than cause trouble instead of working properly!"
