Chapter 9 Early Warning
At night, Meng Tao stayed with Zhou Cuiling in the Zhou's wing.

Zhou Cuiling looked through the box to find a light blue small floral short-sleeved shirt and a pair of gray-blue straight trousers, and gave it to Meng Tao: "I made this suit last summer, I only wore it twice, and then I got fat and wore it. No, you can wear it."

Now it’s the 70s, there is a shortage of materials, cloth tickets are distributed according to the plan according to the head, and the number is not large, especially in rural areas, if you want to make a new set of clothes, the whole family has to save a year for cloth tickets. Even if Zhou Cuiling’s family is relatively rich, you can Meng Tao couldn't take it for granted to exchange money for cloth tickets in private, but it was hard to dampen her enthusiasm, so she accepted it first and said, "I will pay you back when I have money."

Zhou Cuiling smiled: "No need to pay it back, this is something I can't wear anymore. I have younger brothers and no sisters. My mother is stronger than me, and she can't wear it. It's the most suitable for you. You can take it with confidence, I Now that I have a salary, my parents let me save it myself, and I have money and tickets, so I like to make new clothes, and it’s no problem to make two or three sets of clothes a year.”

Meng Tao heard that she had no real sisters, and suddenly thought of Zhou Cuilian, thinking that it would be more appropriate to raise some warnings as soon as possible, so she said, "Zhou Cuilian is your cousin, I saw her follow Tian Yalan to Tian's house today, and the two of them gathered together and said After a lot of bad words from you, I heard that Tian Yalan wanted to stay with Zhou Cuilian for dinner."

Zhou Cuiling's face sank when she heard Zhou Cuilian: "Zhou Cuilian speaks ill of me less often? I knew for a long time that she and Tian Yalan Guigui Chongchong must have no good things. I share a great grandfather with her. Others are plotting against me, I don't recognize such a sister!"

Meng Tao said, "I heard them all. They are indeed plotting against you. Tian Yalan hates you for taking Zhang Guoqing, and asked Zhou Cuilian to monitor you, and secretly went to the brigade to intercept Zhang Guoqing's letter to you."

Zhou Cuiling was very happy: "I robbed Zhang Guoqing? It's a joke! I am a doll relative to National Day. We have known each other since we were three or four years old. Zhang Guoqing always comes to my house to give gifts on New Year's and festivals. How many times does Zhou Cuilian and Tian Yalan go to our village every year? Know?"

"Tian Yalan said that she likes Zhang Guoqing, she swears that you won't be able to marry Zhang Guoqing in this life, they want to harm you together, anyway, they just want you to be unable to marry for the rest of your life, and... you must remember, the one in front of our village Linshui River, when the water is flooding every summer, you must never get close to that river, it will kill you!"

Under the light, Zhou Cuiling blushed with anger: "Is this what they said?"

Meng Tao nodded happily, and she couldn't find an excuse anyway, so she gave it to those two: "It's okay if you say I'm superstitious, sometimes the good is not good or the bad is very good, you have to guard against the two of them, three years Inside, be careful when crossing the river, the wooden bridge is not very strong, and it is best not to cross the river when there is a flood in summer, if you have to go there, you will have to find someone who is able-bodied to send you."

Zhou Cuiling: "..."

She was about to faint, how could there be so many despicable and shameless people?
The next morning, Zhou Cuiling went to work at the grain station, and Meng Tao should have returned to Tian's house by herself.

Although nothing would happen in the daytime, Meng Tao still had to be careful. It was a scorpion's nest. Besides, she was in charge of what happened to the Tian family last night. No one knew about it. Tian Shuifeng and Tian Yalan must have already figured it out. , I can't wait to peel her skin and cramp her muscles.

Zhou Shian was going to go to the brigade, and then go to Tian's house. Since Meng Tao decided not to live in Tian's house, he had to make an explanation.

Meng Tao followed the original owner's memory, and first went back to the Meng's courtyard to go around.

Linshui Village is a large area, and the villagers' houses are scattered. Tian's family is in the center of the village, and Meng's family is in the east.

Meng Tao quickly found it. From the outside, the small courtyard built by Grandpa Meng is not too big, but it is more solid. The lower half of the 1.5-meter-high wall is made of stones, and the upper half is made of straw and mud. adobe.

There was no one in the yard, but the doors of each house were locked. The educated youth were going to work to earn work points. Tian Xianglan's family, it was not clear.

There is a persimmon tree in the courtyard. The three main houses and a row of four low wing rooms are all brick and tile structures. Now this small courtyard is blocked in half by a bamboo fence. The backyard vegetable garden is also divided into two halves, each side.

Obviously, the educated youth are more tidy here, and even the toilets have been remodeled.

Meng Tao walked around the yard, knowing something in her mind, she closed the yard door and left to go to Tian's house.

The Tian's yard was not as silent as imagined, but it was quite lively. Chickens and dogs barked, pigs howled, and children's cries were shrill and piercing. It seemed that Tian Baoshan's two girls were starving and crying without food or drink.

When Meng Tao walked to the door, she quickened her pace when she heard Zhou Shian's voice and the loud voice of the current captain Bao Shunfeng.

Entering the courtyard, in addition to Zhou Shi'an and the captain, there was the female director, and three other young men were looking at something over the haystack that had burned most of the fire last night, as if they were a militia group.

Meng Tao felt that the cloth ball she threw was soaked in kerosene, and it should have burned cleanly, otherwise it would be bad if they found out.

The yard is fairly clean, and even the main room doesn't look too messy. I asked someone to clean it up last night. In the kitchen pots and stoves, all the cooked food that can be found in other places are collected and buried deep. After all, there is "poison" things, not careless.

Tian Agui and Tian Xianglan were sent to the commune health center overnight. At this time, no one else from the Tian family showed up. The two girls were sitting on the wooden bench, screaming and screaming. Shang shivered and held a bowl of rice paste and wanted to feed it with a spoon, but the child refused to eat it.

Meng Tao took two glances to see that the woman who wrapped herself up like a witch was Wang Shuifeng.

As if sensing something, Wang Shuifeng turned her head, her gloomy eyes under the cloth towel immediately doubled in size, bursting out with all kinds of hatred, she straightened up suddenly, grabbed a piece of wood on the ground and smashed it at Meng Tao, gnashing her teeth. Cursing: "I'm going to kill you! You slashed with a thousand swords..."

Captain Bao Shunfeng pulled Meng Tao away, and the firewood fell.

Bao Shunfeng shouted: "Wang Shuifeng! I caught you today, and you really abused Taohua. There are so many of us here, so you dare to do this. I don't know what it would be like to beat people to death!"

Wang Shuifeng was panting heavily, the cloth towel covered half of her face, she deliberately lowered her head again, unable to see the expression on her face, and after a while said, "I didn't abuse her."

"Then what about this firewood? Seeing you with your own eyes, you are still arguing."

"I'm mad at her. There was such a big thing at home, but she didn't come home at night. She didn't know what wild man she was with."

Bao Shunfeng: "..."

He was so angry that he was speechless for a moment: it was obviously your Tian family that was in the waves, but instead he was biting others.

The women's director came over and said, "Wang Shuifeng, stop talking nonsense. Last night, Taohua went to the literacy class to study culture. There was an accident in your family, and she came back. I didn't let her in. You know why. , so I arranged for Taohua to live with Zhou Cuiling."

 Little fairies, leave a ticket for the author, the more the better!
