Chapter 75 Retribution
When I arrived at the grain drying field, I found that almost all men, women, old and children in the village were here.

The young daughter-in-law was holding the nursing baby, the runny-nosed child was running around in the crowd, and the older aunts were spitting all over the place, not knowing who they were gossiping about.

Men get together to smoke cigarettes and tell colored jokes.

Susie and the others found a place to stand. After a while, Qiao Mu squeezed through the crowd and stood behind Susie.

Xu Changgui got a chair and stood up, holding a loudspeaker and shouting to the people below, "Quiet, quiet, everything is quiet, the meeting is over."

Gradually the sun-drying field became quiet, Xu Changgui said: "It's been a while since the autumn harvest is over, it's time to distribute the grain to everyone."

"Everyone knows that there is less rain this year, and with less rain, there will be less millet harvested."

"Two crops of rice a year, a total of 110 acres of paddy fields, this year harvested [-] catties of millet, a little less than last year, the team decided to distribute [-] catties of rice to each person."

"Then the corn is hit in total..."

"There is another good thing I want to tell everyone. By the end of the year, the team will have a road. When the road is opened, we will pull wires and telephone lines for our team."

"Furthermore, the branch of the team has discussed and plans to borrow money to buy a tractor back. There is also Liuxian Lake. This year, we will buy some fry to put in it. Then we will divide the fish twice a year, so this year's reserve will be a little more."

Xu Changgui said at the top, but few people listened to it. Most of the people here were illiterate. Anyway, they couldn't figure out the figures Xu Changgui said. The accountants and bookkeepers in the village only graduated from junior high school.

Xu Changgui said a lot, "Okay, I won't talk too much anymore, let's distribute the food, everyone, don't mess up, whoever you call, and whoever presses their fingerprints will go to the warehouse behind to get the food."

Xu Zhiqiang called out, "Xu Changyou——"

I saw Huang Chunzhen walking over with her little feet.

Xu Zhiqiang pointed to the top of the notebook, "Xu Changyou didn't go to work. You have less working hours here, and you are half-labor, and the work points are also small. There are only more than 600 points. This year, it is three points and eighty-one points. This is calculated... "

Xu Zhiqiang finally sighed, "Your family will owe a lot again this year."

Huang Chunzhen said: "This year we will receive less rations, and my old man won't be able to eat much."

"All white rice, less corn and sweet potatoes."

Accountant Zhang made the calculation for her and wrote a note. Huang Chunzhen pressed her fingerprints, and Lan Baoguo, the deputy captain of the production team, called out, "Come and help Aunt Huang carry the food back."

Zhu Zhicheng ran over, and a few other guys also passed by, including Chen Changqing. On such an occasion, he must behave properly.

When we arrived at the back warehouse, we handed the note to the food manager, who weighed the food, and the guys carried it to the backyard.

Su Qian curiously went to Xu Zhiqiang's side and looked at the work points book that everyone handed in. There were many work points, such as Zhu Zhicheng, who had the highest number of work points in the entire production team, with more than 800 work points.

According to Xu Zhiqiang, Zhu Zhicheng did the hardest and most tiring work, such as repairing canals in the commune, or smashing stones, and he rushed to go to them if they were [-] centimeters a day.

There is also the production team rushing to collect in the middle of the night, twenty work points a night, he is also desperate to do it.

Xu Changgui knew that his family's conditions were not good, so he was always assigned such jobs that were taller than a centimeter.

Most of the male laborers have less than [-] work points a year.

The female labor force is one or two thousand.

Susie did the math with her own notebook. She worked for a total of 23 days, with five work points for the first three days and six work points for the rest.

Zhao Tingting and Tian Xiaohui are similar to her.

Qiao Mu and the others are a little more, but not by much, after all, they have only been here for more than a month.

After watching the excitement for a while, Susie walked towards Zhao Tingting and the others. After walking for a while, she suddenly felt a lewd look on her.

She looked sideways, and Yang Laosan was standing not far away, with a cigarette in his mouth, looking at her intently.

Seeing Susie looking at him, Youngest Yang smiled wretchedly while biting his cigarette, then struck a match and lit the cigarette in his mouth.

Su Qian turned her head in disgust, and quickly walked towards Zhao Tingting.

Just turning my head, I suddenly heard a "bang", like someone was blowing up a firecracker.

The bustling grain drying field became quiet because of the "bang", and everyone looked around, "What's wrong? What happened?"

Susie looked at the place where the sound came out, and she found that Yang Laosan, who had been squinting at her just now, had fallen to the ground, his whole body was twitching, and at the same time, he let out a low howl from deep in his throat.

The surrounding club members also noticed it, and gathered around one after another, "What's the matter, what's the matter?"

"What happened to youngest Yang?"

"Oh, look at Yang Laosan's mouth!"

"Hey, was that the firecracker just now?"

"Why, I think Yang Laosan's mouth seems to have been blown to pieces."

Susie was not too far away, so she could see clearly that Yang Laosan's face was covered in blood and flesh, and the mouth was even more bloody, which was horrible.

A member said: "It's not just his mouth, look at his eyes, they are bleeding too, it must have been blown up."

Someone looked around, "Who threw the firecrackers just now?"

The few people close to Yang Laosan shook their heads, "No one is throwing firecrackers, they were all gossiping here just now."

Huang Zhaodi was listening to a few aunts talking in vernacular, when she heard a firecracker, she turned her head and saw a person lying on the ground, looked carefully, wasn't that her youngest son?
She ran over like crazy, and jumped to the side of Yang Laosan, "What's the matter? My son, don't scare your mother."

When Huang Zhaodi saw clearly the tragic situation of Yang Laosan, she almost fainted.

She slumped on the ground and let out a long howl: "What's wrong, my son——"

Not far away, Liao Zhenyuan was sitting on a chair with his eyes wide open. He excitedly poked Lan Xiu's leg with his cane, "Xiu'er, revenge, someone has revenge for you!"

"Yang Laosan's mouth is blown to pieces, and his eyes are probably blown out!"

Lan Xiu also saw Huang Zhaodi sitting on the ground howling, but Yang Laosan's face was blocked by Huang Zhaodi, so she couldn't see clearly.

She was a little excited, "Really? Did the dog really get retribution?"

As she spoke, tears welled up in one of her eyes.

It wasn't that she was so happy that Yang Laosan was blind, she was happy that the person who did something bad was finally punished.

When she was blinded by the blast, Yang Laosan was twelve or thirteen years old. It is impossible for such an old child not to know the consequences of throwing firecrackers on people's faces.

But Yang Laosan is bad, a born bad seed, he has bullied her a lot since he was a child, and throwing firecrackers is bullying her daily for Yang Laosan.

If the family could admit their mistakes and apologize, the Lan family would not remember this matter for so long, and some things would have passed slowly with the passage of time.

But it seems that one thing has not come to an end, there is no end, it always makes people think about it.

Lan Xiu murmured with tears in one eye: "God has eyes, God has eyes!"
