Although the wild vegetables in this season are old and not very tasty, they can be of great use if they are dried and stored. It is better to eat them badly than not to eat them at all.
Zhang Yu should soon find that everyone in the village is busy.
Whether it was the children who were originally playing there, or the old ladies who said they couldn't go to work to take care of their children, or even the old men and old ladies who chatted at the entrance of the village all day long, they were all busy digging wild vegetables in the mountains.
When everyone mentions the Tugouzi Brigade, they all use swear words.
Even Uncle Xie, who is such a good-tempered person, was so angry at what Shigouzi Brigade did that his stomach ached.
If it really comes to that point now, the Tugouzi brigade intercepts the water. Although the method is not authentic, but at the critical moment, the crops of the own brigade are protected first. The others will scold and get angry, but it will not be like now.
But the current situation is that although there is a drought this year and the water level of the river has dropped, it has not reached that point.
He and the brigade leader also went to see the Tugouzi brigade when they went to ask for an explanation. They couldn't use up the water that the Tugouzi brigade intercepted.
"The Tugouzi Brigade deliberately made things difficult for us. There is simply no way to use up the water."
Facing his eldest son's anger, Grandpa Xie shook his head and said, "Look, this matter will never be finished, and the people in the village will not just let it go."
Sure enough, when work started today, the villagers started rioting when they saw the crops with drooping leaves.
Someone said loudly: "Captain, Tugouzi Brigade still refuses to release the water?"
The captain shook his head. He had visited Tugouzi Brigade several times in the past few days. Captain Tugouzi hid and said nothing every time, and other members of the brigade also spoke in a bad tone.
"Captain, the Tugouzi Brigade is too bullying. It's clear that he doesn't want us to live. We'll fight him!"
The old farmer looked at the drooping crops with distress, and shed tears of distress.
His words caused others to echo: "Yes, captain, as long as you speak, we will fight with the people of Tugouzi Brigade."
"Yes, let's fight with them. If the Tugouzi Brigade doesn't want us to live, then no one should live!"
Before the captain could say anything, the cadres sent by the commune to the village felt a little headache as they looked at the villagers with fierce looks on their faces as they picked up the guy in the audience.
In his mind, he scolded the Tugouzi Brigade half to death, but on the surface, he had to appease the villagers of the Xiejia Brigade first.
"Everyone, calm down and listen to me. I will go to the commune today. The secretary of the commune has already found the captain of the Tugouzi Brigade and will talk to him about releasing water today. Please wait a moment. Don't be impulsive. Don't
impulse!"
The villagers don't like this cadre who is stationed in the village very much. He is useless and wants to interfere in the village's affairs all day long. He doesn't let them do this or that. He really thinks he is some kind of uncle.
The hot-blooded young man gave him a blank look: "Talk, what's there to talk about? If the Tugouzi Brigade is willing to let go, there is no need to wait until now. If you want me to say, we still have to fight, and they will be defeated naturally.
It will release water."
A trace of embarrassment flashed across the face of the cadre stationed in the village. His job is quite difficult. He has to take care of many things. If the villagers are not happy and do not support him, just leave it alone. If anything happens, the commune leaders will come to him first.
The old man next to him knocked his youngest son on the head and showed an embarrassed expression to the village cadre.
"The child is still young and doesn't know anything. Don't be as knowledgeable as him."
Although he looks down on the village cadres, the old man is more thoughtful than the younger son.
The cadres stationed in the village may not be good at doing things, but if they want to do bad things, they can do it.
If there is any trouble in the village, people are watching it, and usually they don't say anything about it. But if you really annoy people, they will focus on you, and they will inevitably cause you some trouble.
For people like them, is it better not to offend them or not?
After saying that, he turned around and scolded his youngest son.
"If you fight, you know how to fight. You think everything can be solved with a fight. If you continue like this, you will get into trouble sooner or later..."
The young man was a little unconvinced: "Didn't you do the same when you were young? I heard my mother say that when you were young, you broke your head fighting for water. My mother also said that you almost lost your head at that time.
It’s typed out.”
As soon as these words came out, everyone who was still serious couldn't help laughing.
Someone looked at the old man and joked: "Xie Laoliu didn't expect this! You looked like this when you were young."
"Hahaha!"
The old man was so angry that he turned to shame. He glared at the old guys who were teasing him, and replied angrily: "I was the only one who fought over water back then, and you didn't go!"
Others were silent, and some people coughed awkwardly.
Fighting for water is a matter for a village. When they were young and vigorous, they were naturally busy.
"Dad, what does it look like when a dog's brains are knocked out?" the young man asked curiously, successfully diverting the old man's attention to himself.
And these words also gave the old man an outlet for his anger. The old man took out his pipe and hit his youngest son on the head hard. This time he was not pretending like the first time.
"Oh, Dad, you are really cruel! I want to go back and complain to my mother, saying that you beat me and beat me stupid." The young man held his head and ran away.
"If you want to go quickly, why should I be afraid? I'm not smart in the first place." The old man knocked the younger son again angrily, and couldn't help complaining that the old woman was not tight-lipped and said everything.
"Mom, my dad beat me!"
Looking at the young son who ran to the old woman to complain, the old man took back his pipe angrily.
The old lady glanced at her old man, then raised her hand and slapped her youngest son hard on the back: "You are the only one who talks fast!"
"Mom! Why did you hit me too?"
Seeing the disbelief on the young man's face, everyone present laughed.
The originally dull atmosphere became a little more relaxed.
The village cadre standing in front of the crowd quietly exhaled.
I was finally appeased!
Just turning his head, the cadre stationed in the village looked towards the commune with eyes filled with sadness again.
I don’t know if the commune secretary can talk to the captain of the Tongtugouzi brigade. If the other party still disagrees with releasing the water, there is nothing he can do.
And the commune, the commune secretary is also worried.
After the Xie family brigade came over yesterday, he made an appointment with the captain of the Tugouzi brigade and tried to persuade him for a long time, but the other party remained silent and stiffened his neck and refused to agree to release the water.
When he walked into the office, the commune secretary grabbed the hat on his head and threw it to the ground. He couldn't help but cursed.
Seeing this, the secretary silently brought a cup of tea over.
"Secretary, please drink some water first to calm down! Tugouzi Brigade is not sensible, so don't be as knowledgeable as them."
