Chapter 60 Bite Him Again
When Xiao Guofu was young, he often went up to the mountain to pick chestnuts with his grandma and son, and every time he would bring fruit back to his elders.

Later, when the grandma's son passed away, Xiao Guofu worried that it would be inconvenient for the old man to do heavy work, so he often came to look after him.

Yesterday, I gave my grandma a taste of the sugar-fried chestnuts sent by Li Shuixian and his wife. I also wanted to let my grandma remember the taste, so as not to be fooled by strangers who came to collect chestnuts.

When Li Shuixian delivered the chestnuts, he told him that besides her and Xiao Zhihai, there must be someone else to collect the chestnuts.

Let him inform the Xiao family in the mountains that all the chestnuts are left to her and Xiao Zhihai, and cannot be sold to others.

Said that others would be short of money, and cheated the villagers of money.

Xiao Guofu never thought that the money-swindling strangers from outside would be the bully Xiao Cheng and his wife.

After Xiao Zhigang's father moved to the new town, he rarely came back except every Qingming Festival, and Xiao Zhigang was the same.

Xiao Cheng never went back to the countryside since he was a child.

Xiao Guofu's understanding of Xiao Cheng was limited to listening to word of mouth from the Xiao family in the town when he went to the town to go to the market.

They are all bad comments, saying that Xiao Cheng bullies men and women, commits crimes in the street, and commits all kinds of evil.

Talking badly to the stepmother, acting against her, doing nothing all day long, leading a group of gangsters to fight everywhere.

Xiao Guofu didn't know the facts either, so he didn't know who to trust or how to make a choice.

But this time, Xiao Cheng helped him borrow bricks to carry people, and on the way back to his hometown to worship his ancestors, he sought justice for the Xiao family, forced the Chen family to retreat, and opened the way for the ancestors. This is an indisputable fact. No one at home can do it.

Moreover, Xiao Cheng didn't do any bad deeds from returning to the countryside from the town to worshiping ancestors on the mountain.

Come to think of it, the rumors are true and false.

Not to mention, the trust and kindness of grandpa and grandma in Xiao Cheng and Bai Lu has already surpassed the level of meeting the Xiao family outside for the first time, and the eyes of the two elders can't be wrong.

Naturally, everything is already in mind.

Xiao Guofu finally agreed, and sold the chestnuts kept by grandparents to Xiao Cheng and Bai Lu.

As for the others...

It's enough for him to notify someone to buy chestnuts. He won't help Xiao Cheng and Xiao Zhihai.

The people of the tribe can sell it to whomever they like.

It's the same price anyway.

As for his family's chestnuts, let's talk about it after the ancestor worship. In the afternoon, there is another Xiao's ancestral tomb to worship.

After Xiao Guofu explained how many people were in the room, and he would be able to eat in half an hour, he hurried back to the square.

Grandma took Xiao Cheng and Bai Lu to the room where the chestnuts were stored, which was next door to the main house, also a mud brick building.

The space is large, looking at the construction specifications of poultry animals such as captive pigs, cattle, sheep, chickens, ducks and geese.

Push open the wooden door.

As far as the eye can see, there are big earth brown sand piles, very tall and wide.

"This place used to raise piglets. When my son was young, he and Ah Fu would go to the mountains to make traps, catch a lot of wild piglets, and sometimes catch pheasants and hares, all kinds of small animals, and separate them. keep."

When the words touched the sad part, the grandmother paused, and after a while, relief appeared on her face: "Later, Ah Fu also caught the piglets for us, and we all raised them in this house."

"Unexpectedly, the little piglets hadn't been raised for a few days, when a typhoon suddenly blew, all the black tiles and beams on the roof were knocked off, and they fell to the ground, crushing all the little piglets to death."

"After Ah Fu brought people over to repair the roof, we stopped raising piglets." At this point, Grandma smiled at Bai Lu who listened carefully: "Actually, the piglets on the mountain have become more refined. Ah Fu can't catch it."

Grandma smiled until the wrinkles at the corners of her eyes were raised, her smile was kind and kind, without any blame.

Bai Lu's feet were still in pain just after wiping the medicinal wine, and she was being supported by Xiao Cheng at the moment, and she also gave her grandma a just-right surprised smile: "Perhaps the little piggies didn't expect that Uncle Fu was so powerful that he caught all their relatives." It was all gone, so the little piggies were all scared and ran away."

These words not only affirmed Xiao Guofu's ability to catch piglets, but also hit the meaning of grandma's protection of future generations.

Don't mention how much Grandma likes Bailu, she praised with a brighter smile: "It's a great fortune to be strong, to marry a smart and beautiful wife, you should cherish it."

Xiao Cheng supported his good daughter-in-law, he didn't know whether he agreed or had other intentions, and replied seriously: "Yes."

Grandpa and grandma were relieved.

Grandma continued: "Later, there were no more piglets to raise, so we brought back the sand and chestnuts stored in the cave, and stored them all in the house. These chestnuts were picked up by the old man and me on the mountain and fell from the trees. If it’s too tall, we won’t be able to pick it, and if it’s too short, we’ll beat it with a bamboo pole.”

"It's not much. It is estimated that all the chestnuts buried in the sand piles add up to only two thousand catties."

Grandma's understatement made Bai Lu click her tongue. More than 2000 catties of chestnuts, not much?

It's just that two old people can pick up so many chestnuts. It's hard to imagine that the young people in the clan can pick up an astonishing amount of chestnuts. If the family has a large population, why not tens of thousands?

Then thinking that Xiao Wei could pick up more than 400 catties by himself, Bai Lu's surprise was immediately calmed down again.

Thinking about it, I couldn't help stretching out my hand, and touched the lid of the little guy next to it, it's amazing!
Xiao Wei suddenly regretted that the big straw hat should not be held, but should be worn on the head.

However, when she looked up and saw Bai Lu was being supported by her eldest brother, she was relieved of her awkward mood.

Well, it's actually pretty good to touch.

Grandma took a shovel from the corner of the house, and Grandpa took it to shovel the sand, and quickly shoveled out a sack of chestnuts.

Shake the sand on it.

Grandma opened the tether of the sack and said, "Fortunately, there is sand, otherwise there would be no good chestnuts."

"There is a very wide river on the other side of the mountain. There is sand in the river, and there is also a lot of sand in the shoals by the river. In the past, no one took care of the river, so the villagers packed a lot of chestnuts in sacks and carried them back to bury chestnuts. A few years ago, a big The boss has contracted the river and opened the battlefield, so he won't let him pick it up."

"The villagers are not even allowed to get close to the river. If they get close, they will be beaten. The boss is very fierce..."

Bai Lu and Xiao Cheng looked at each other, and at the same time read a tacit understanding from each other's eyes - Li Chengbin.

Most of the sand and gravel fields in Pingcheng are in the hands of Li Chengbin. He has a protective umbrella and acts rampantly.

Grandma grabbed a handful of chestnuts and gave them to Xiao Cheng, hinting with a smile in her eyes that he would peel them for Bai Lu to taste.

Under Bai Lu's puzzled and surprised eyes, Xiao Cheng supported her waist with his left hand, and started peeling chestnuts with his right hand.

The chestnut is held in the wide palm, and a chestnut is held between the slender thumb and forefinger, and the chestnut is squeezed open and peeled.

Move freely and freely.

Soon, Xiao Cheng peeled a chestnut, and handed it to Bai Lu's mouth in front of grandparents.

Bai Lu still held his arm, opened her mouth slightly, bit off the chestnut, and chewed slowly.

Mmm...very sweet.

Xiao Cheng withdrew his fingertips that had been touched by his soft lips, and continued peeling chestnuts as if nothing had happened.

The next chestnut that was crushed was faintly hot, and when it was delivered to Bai Lu's mouth, it was still warm.

Bai Lu seemed to be aware of it, and when the next chestnut was brought to her mouth, she deliberately avoided it.

But it was a coincidence that he bit his finger...
