Chapter 40
He Chunhong and his wife had a good plan, but their daughter Jia was unwilling to be implicated by her brother and did not want to sacrifice her family. She clamored and said that she was wronged, saying that she didn't know about this at all, and said that even if it was a murder, it had nothing to do with her.
However, in order to save his son, He Chunhong and his wife ignored the girl's life and death and insisted that this was the case.
Jia Tao was full of injustice, but unfortunately she was rude and there was no evidence to prove that she was wronged. Therefore, no one listened to her defense, and in the end she had to accept her fate helplessly.
Compared with other people in her family, Jia Tao was punished for sheltering with a relatively light punishment. The superior sentenced her to one year in prison and was suspended for one year. If the other person is in reverse, it would be equivalent to not being sentenced and she was only handed over to the commune for processing.
Seeing that she was still a little girl and was not the main culprit, the commune did not make things difficult for her. She only changed her golden "eight generations of poor peasants" into "bad elements". In the future, as long as she was honest, she still had work and food, but if there was a good thing like joining the army and recruiting workers, it would never be her turn to be a person like her.
It can be said that with the "bad elements", she is destined to stay in the countryside for the rest of her life.
Jia Tao was so aggrieved that she lay on the kang every day crying, crying for her own hardships, crying for her parents to treat herself unfairly, crying for her good eight generations of poor peasants who have become bad elements...
In the future, let alone being a female soldier or recruiting workers, it is impossible to find a good in-laws' family...
Because He Chunhong was accomplice, he was sentenced to a heavy sentence and was sentenced to eight years in prison. Jia Dabangzi was sentenced to five years, so Lao Jiatou was not so lucky. He was the main culprit and robbed huge amounts of property, so he was directly sentenced to death.
On the day the court sentenced, Lao Jiatou fainted when he heard that he had been sentenced to death.
Originally, he thought that the law would not punish the public, and that his whole family would share the crime, so the court would not have sentenced him to death.
As a result, I still couldn't escape this death!
He didn't want to die, he hadn't lived enough yet, but for his son and for the incense of the old Jia family, this selfish old man who had been selfish all his life did not appeal and was actually sentenced to death.
However, the old guy cried in the prison and asked the prison guard to tell his son that Jia Dabangzi would have more sons in the future and give birth to the old Jia family more, so that he would be worthy of his father and the ancestors of the old Jia family.
Jia Dabangzi thought he was dead this time, but he didn't expect that his father would take all the charges. Jia Dabangzi was lucky and had a disciple of his resentment towards Zheng Yaqin.
It was this little bitch who hurt him, causing his family to be destroyed and defeated. He ordered that he would not be spared, and let's see. When he went out, he would definitely make her unable to survive or die...
Zheng Yaqin felt very relieved after hearing the fate of the old Jia family. After twenty years of life and death, she suffered all kinds of abuse and torture. It can be said that she hated them all to the bones and wanted to suck their muscles and skin them. Now that she heard that they had ended up, she was so relieved that she had been holding her chest for decades. The anger she had held in her chest for decades gradually dissipated.
In the following period, the sentence of the old Jia family became the hottest topic in the village, and everyone was happy about the decline of the old Jia family.
Who told their family to bully people in the village because of their son's thick arms? It's time for God to have a vision and make them suffer retribution!
Everyone's gossip enthusiasm did not last long, and soon everyone's attention was diverted by another thing.
That is - this year is another year of drought!
From early May to July, it has not rained, and the crops are about to die.
Farmers rely on the weather for their meals. If God does not rain, crops cannot grow. If crops do not grow, farmers will have no food to eat. If they have no food to eat, they will have to starve to death and cause famine.
Seeing that the fields were almost cracked and the crops were all wilted, the people in the village were anxious.
It has been drought for two years. In the past two years, the people have almost had their necks tied. If there is any further drought this year, people will definitely starve to death.
What's wrong with this?
The captain was tortured by this sad Nian Cheng. He wanted to take everyone to the temple to ask for rain, but he was afraid that he would be criticized for feudal superstitious activities. He was afraid that he would have been punished before he could ask for rain.
But if you don’t ask for rain, you can’t stand this deadly year.
The village held several meetings, and everyone expressed different opinions on the dilemma of delaying rain.
Some people suggested that all members of the village should fetch water to water the land. Although they could not water all the land, the amount of water could be watered is better than the dry particles without harvest.
Some people also suggested not paying attention to crops and going to the city to work. As long as the place where they work can be kept for food and accommodation, they can bring out their mouths.
Some people also suggested digging wells in the ground. Although digging wells is time-consuming and expensive, it is useful.
If you dig a well in the ground, the water will be drilled out and it will be watered directly, saving time and effort. In the future, as long as there is a drought, you can be watered and irrigated, and you will no longer have to worry about drought.
Most people disagree with the first one - asking everyone to carry water up the mountain to water the land, because now everyone can’t even eat enough, there is no oil and water in their stomachs, and they have no strength at all.
Under such a tiring job that you can't even eat enough and have no strength to let everyone do such a tiring job of carrying water and watering the ground, even if everyone is willing to do it, their physical fitness will definitely not be able to bear it.
The second one is not good either, because Zheng Yaqin said that there are not so many jobs to find in the city. Not to mention anything else, even if there are countless unemployed young people in the city, she was lucky enough to find a job. If everyone went to work in the city and she dared to make a promise, more than 98% of people would not be able to find a job, and the tickets would be in vain.
Zheng Yaqin said so, so everyone didn't dare to go.
Everyone was afraid of the outside world. Since she said so, who would dare to go out? If you can’t find a job and have no money to come back, you still have to beg for food!
Then the third one left is the one that is digging a well.
Although digging wells is feasible, there is a big problem, that is, there is no money.
Digging a well is a expensive job. Because Dagu Yushu Village has a lot of land, it is impossible to just drill two wells. Thousands of acres of land, at least you have to drill ***.
Just counting a well of 200 yuan, it will cost 2,000 yuan. Now the village is in trouble, so how can I do the trick to dig a well for those two years?
The captain was very anxious, and his mouth was so blistered. He studied with several cadres in the group all day long. After studying the funding for drilling wells, he still couldn't think of a solution.
