Chapter 46 The Matter Resolved
Chapter 46 The Matter Resolved
Lu Yuanqing waited at home until it was completely dark before Lu Yuanbo and the others returned after the festivities ended.
In this era and rural area where there were absolutely no entertainment activities, every lively event was truly entertainment for them.
Lu Yuanbo and his three companions arrived at their doorstep, still chattering away.
Lu Yuanqing had just taken a shower and was drying his hair in the breeze in front of the door, waiting for them to come back.
"Finally back! The food's all cold!" Lu Yuanqing joked.
"Hehe, bro, it's okay to eat something cold!" Lu Yuanbo said with a grin.
If any child stays up all night watching the commotion and still doesn't go home, the adults will get angry.
Lu Yuanbo was afraid he would scold them.
Lu Yuanqing glared at him in the dark, feeling a little annoyed. He was a bit disappointed that there was only the moon and no electric light, so he couldn't see the look in his eyes clearly.
"Brother, we're late!"
Compared to Lu Yuanbo's shamelessness, Lu Yuanhuan was a little embarrassed. "Are Xiao Bei and the others asleep?"
There are so many things to do at home! She actually left them all to go down and watch the commotion!
Lu Yuanqing was gentle with her, "Go to sleep. You and Xiaoxi haven't eaten yet. Go and eat, tidy up and get some rest. If you can't see, leave the dishes for tomorrow morning!"
"Okay, Third Brother!" Lu Yuanhuan obediently replied, pulling Lu Mingxi into the main room.
Without a kerosene lamp at home, it was truly impossible to see anything.
However, they had already gotten used to this kind of life where they had to walk in the dark as soon as it got dark. They reached out their hands and tentatively walked a few steps to the center of the main room, where the dining table was set up.
"Brother, I haven't eaten either, and you only remember your little sister and Xiao Xi, humph!" Lu Yuanbo snorted loudly as he passed by Lu Yuanqing.
Lu Yuanqing: "..." Childish!
"Xiao west, you can bring your food out to eat!"
The weather is getting hotter and hotter, and it's starting to feel stuffy inside. It probably won't cool down until 11 or 2 pm. There's also a natural breeze blowing outside, which makes it much more comfortable.
"Okay!" came a reply from inside the house.
Lu Yuanqing casually ruffled his hair a few times, and with a few gusts of wind, his hair was almost dry.
Summer in Sichuan and Chongqing is the most unbearable. It's only June now, and the geothermal heat has already started. July and August will be the truly torturous season.
After drying his hair, Lu Yuanqing planned to go back to his room to sleep.
His daily routine is incredibly healthy now.
Looking at the three people sitting in a row on the threshold, Lu Yuanqing thought of Lu Mingdong, who had already gone to take a shower, and was speechless. "You guys don't even know to eat before you go to watch the fun. Look at Xiaodong, he always eats before he goes."
“But when Xiao Dong went, it was already nearing its end, and he didn’t see the whole thing.” Lu Mingxi took a sip of porridge, then gnawed on a potato stuck in his chopsticks, while answering Lu Yuanqing’s question.
She's been eating potatoes every day lately, and her face is turning green from it.
But if it can fill my stomach, I'll eat it even if it turns green.
Lu Yuanqing stopped in his tracks as he headed back to his room and said with interest, "They didn't end up fighting, did they?"
Even without fighting, they can still argue until late at night. It has to be said that the villagers all have different ways of arguing; they are determined to win.
"Well, they haven't actually started fighting yet," Lu Yuanbo said.
Lu Yuanqing laughed, "You sound quite disappointed!"
"Hey, fourth brother! You can't have violent thoughts!"
“What?! How did I become violent?” Lu Yuanbo retorted.
"I think so!" Lu Yuanhuan and Lu Mingxi said in unison.
“I think so too!” Lu Mingdong said as he came out of the shower and dried his hair. “Third Uncle and Fourth Uncle were very excited the whole time. They were most excited when they were arguing so badly that they looked like they were about to fight. They couldn’t wait to rush forward.”
When Aunt Chunhua finally left the Niu couple speechless, Lu Yuanbo felt incredibly regretful!
Because he realized that the Niu family had given up and couldn't fight anymore.
"Hmm!" Lu Yuanqing frowned, his expression slightly serious. "Fourth brother, you need to control your tendency to stir up trouble. You can't just start hitting people all the time!"
"We believe in the principle of 'we won't attack unless we're attacked!'"
That poor kid, we finally managed to change his fate of eating peanuts, but I hope he doesn't end up in an even worse situation!
You should know that a storm is brewing, and someone like Lu Yuanbo is bound to suffer.
Lu Yuanbo was being questioned by everyone, and his face turned red. He muttered, "I know!"
He knows he has an impulsive nature, but there's no need to bring him up and criticize him every time a related topic comes up!
snort!
This is the fourth time this month that my third brother has sternly warned me not to cause trouble!
Is he really such a troublemaker?
Lu Yuanbo was depressed.
Lu Yuanqing didn't care whether he was upset or not; he would keep an eye on him and remind him constantly.
"By the way, how did Aunt Chunhua resolve the issue in the end?" Lu Yuanqing asked curiously.
These four people in your family who read to the end will definitely know.
Lu Mingnan, who obediently went home as soon as it got dark, asked for a long time, but all he could say was that Aunt Chunhua pointed at Niu Datou's nose and cursed him!
"Haha, bro, you don't know..." Lu Yuanbo was just feeling down, but in the blink of an eye, he started passionately telling Lu Yuanqing the details of the matter.
Lu Yuanqing glanced at him with a smile.
He's the kind of guy who doesn't hold grudges or remember things!
Actually, the problem was easy to solve. The key was that Niu Datou and his gang were unwilling to use their own savings to throw away excrement; instead, they stole from the brigade.
Even sewage is part of the brigade's assets; taking it without permission is stealing.
For this reason alone, it is perfectly legitimate to take advantage of Niu Datou and his gang.
Let alone the disgusting smell of excrement, even if it's the cows raised by the brigade, if someone sees and picks up the excrement, it's considered stealing public property if you take it seriously.
Don't underestimate people's concern for public property.
Anyone who dares to take even the slightest advantage of public property is a daredevil.
Lu Yuanqing's lips twitched. He had thought of several solutions, but he couldn't come up with this one no matter how hard he tried.
After the potatoes were harvested, the village had a pretty good harvest this year. Thinking that there would be corn, rice and other grains to harvest next, Zhao Zhongcai thought that after three years of hardship, he should let everyone have a good New Year this year.
Then, after begging and pleading with everyone, they managed to get a few piglets back. They specially cleaned up the entire pig farm and put the piglets in like precious treasures.
After more than half a month of raising pigs, the manure pit in the pig farm, which had long since dried up, finally started producing pig manure again.
As a result, Niu Datou and his gang took it and splashed it on the brigade leader's house every day.
Now that's perfect, they've got a ready-made handle, and those few troublemakers have been caught red-handed and suppressed.
As for the other villagers who have opinions, they are not a threat. They only dare to express their opinions and try to please others verbally, but they would never dare to do anything outrageous.
Therefore, the reform of grain distribution was solved so easily.
Lu Yuanqing breathed a sigh of relief at this.
Zhao Zhongcai: "...?..." A world where one person is injured is achieved.
