Mountain driving career since 1982

Chapter 211 The murderer
"What are you going to do?"

Seeing Lu Lu's return with a bad look on his face, Zhu Chunmei's face changed suddenly, and she leaned towards the two men intentionally or unintentionally.

"I didn't hear what you just said clearly, I want you to say it again!"

Lu Lu didn't want to argue with her at first, but this kind of words, which are no different from curses, are really ugly, and knowing the shitty things she did, she said a lot of gossip about Chen Xiuyu behind her back, so she couldn't help but get annoyed: "Why didn't you just say that? Throw me to death, right? How can your broken mouth be so poisonous? Is this your home on the road?"

Unceremoniously, Lu Lu sprayed it directly.

I thought that with Zhu Chunmei's harsh virtues, she would definitely say something back, but who knew, she just lowered her head and kept silent, not even daring to meet Lu Lu's eyes.

"Why don't you say anything, you should scold me again!"

Lu Lu pointed at her with the whip in his hand, and Zhu Chunmei was startled again, shrank back behind the middle-aged man, and still remained silent.

"Men, it's not a big deal. We shouldn't have stood in the middle of the main road talking just now. We blocked the way. You put the fire away!"

As the middle-aged man said, he took out a pack of welcome spring cigarettes from his arms, and handed one to Lu Lu.

Zhu Chunmei's reaction made it impossible for Lu Lu to perform. He glanced at the middle-aged man, snorted coldly, turned his horse's head, and continued to run towards Xiushan Village.

"Who is this person? He has a violent temper!"

After Lu Lu left, the middle-aged man resentfully stuffed the cigarettes back into the cigarette case, and asked Zhu Chunmei with a smile.

"A foreigner, who has only been in Xiushantun for more than two months, lives in a meadow in the mountains over there. He heard people say that he chopped down Xiongba with a big axe. Not long ago, he even released dogs to kill the son of the director of Liangzihe Forest Farm. Bitten, is a murderer!"

Zhu Chunmei said with lingering fear: "I was afraid that he would scare you just now, so I couldn't help cursing a few words...Look at this domineering appearance, he is not a good person at first glance."

The middle-aged man nodded: "It's quite fierce! That's enough, you can just send it here. We still have a long way to go back, so we won't delay. Now that the marriage has been agreed, we will go back with our birthday to choose It’s a good day, when the day is chosen and the job is done, come and reward me!”

Zhu Chunmei smiled: "Then you have to hurry up."

"Go back and find someone to check the date, I believe it won't be long, we will come again...Leave!"

"Slow down!"

Watching the two go away, Zhu Chunmei turned around and walked towards Xiushan Village, muttering as she walked, "I'll curse you for falling to your death on horseback one day. No matter what, it's been rumored that you and that girl Xiuyu want to be friends. I'm afraid you I can't get it!"

Lu Lu rode his horse all the way into Xiushantun, jumped off his horse and led him away.

There are too many people in the village, so we can no longer run chasing the wind. Lu Lu still has some sense of propriety.

On the main road, Zhang Shaofeng's twins and several other children were playing marbles in the gray nest on the road. When they saw Lu Lu approaching, the twins quickly got up from the ground and patted their dusty clothes a few times. , kicked up bursts of dust.

They are all busy making a living, adults don't have so much time to chase after their children every day, and naturally the children can't take care of them well, most of the time they let them make things, as long as they don't cause trouble, they lie in the gray nest It is very common to talk about marbles, pick up stones, and play with mud.

The things that children these days can play with are monotonous. A slingshot, a glass marble, a comic book, a rubber band, or even just a few stones can keep them excited for a long time and play out Many tricks come.

Of course, those who play dirty in such a gray nest will definitely be beaten when they return home, but as long as the next day, most of them forget about it completely and continue to pursue these simple pleasures.

"Uncle Lu, Uncle Lu!"

Two little guys ran over, shouting happily.

"Aren't you all in school at this time today? Why are you running and playing?" Lu Lu reached out and rubbed the heads of the two little guys.

Looking at them like this, nine out of ten have completely forgotten about playing with the slingshot.

"This afternoon, the teacher has something to do, so he gave us half a day off!"

Brother Zhang Tianyu said with a smile.

No matter when, vacation is a very happy thing for children.

"Look at the two of you, you've become mud monkeys. If you go back at night, you will definitely be beaten!"

Hearing this, the smiling faces of the two little guys suddenly collapsed.

Lu Lu smiled at them: "Go, lead me to your house, is your father at home?"

"Not here, my parents have gone to the ground." Zhang Tianhua led Lu Lu home.

That's right, at this point, everyone should be busy with things. Rural people are like this, and they seem to have endless things to do, even if these things, in the eyes of many people, are meaningless.

However, it is precisely because of these seemingly meaningless things that the autumn harvest and winter family reunion are accumulated little by little.

Zhang Shaofeng's family was not there, so Lu Lu could only hand over the yellow-haired pork legs he brought to his two children and send them home.

Who knew that when they went to Wang Demin's house and Mrs. Duan's house next, the doors were all closed.

He could only hang the bag of meat he brought on the fence at the gate of the courtyard.

When returning to Dixonzi, I met Zhu Chunmei again in the village. This time, she hid far away from the side of the road, pretending to look out of the main road.

Lu Lu ignored her, and when he arrived at Tunkou, he got on his horse and galloped towards Dixianzi, returning to Caodianzi a few minutes later.

Chen Xiuyu's fire was burning very vigorously. While burning, she pulled out some smokeless charcoal from the fire, which had accumulated quite a lot. She was coughing continuously due to the smoke.

It was a hot day, and it was unbearable to be by the fire.

Lu Lu jumped off the horse, let Zhuifeng go to the meadow to graze, and hurriedly stepped forward and pulled her aside to rest: "Just make the fire hot, what are you doing with the charcoal?"

"Didn't you want to roast pork? I thought it wouldn't be good if the meat was smoked, so I picked out some that were completely burnt without smoke." Chen Xiuyu said with a smile.

She wiped her nose and forehead with the hand that had held the charcoal, making it gaudy.

"It's okay. Didn't you see that I smoked meat specially with fire? That meat is not bad, right?"

Lu Lu said with a smile: "This life needs to be a little smokey. I didn't have a good rest last night, and today I have another day of tossing around. I just sit and rest. I can do it. Well, go and wash your face first. Turned into a cat."

Chen Xiuyu blushed, and hurried towards the small river.

Lu Lu took an ax and went to the forest behind to chop off two thick branches and nailed them to the ground. He also cut two catalpa branches, spread the pickled wild boar cubs, tied them with wire, and put them on the fire. grilled.

"Have you heard of any girl in the village who came to propose marriage recently?" Lu Lu said casually, "When I went to the village just now, I met that matchmaker surnamed Zhu, and two other people from the village."

"I haven't heard of it!"

Most of the married girls in the village are about the same age as Chen Xiuyu, and they are also playmates who get together on weekdays. If there is any marriage proposal or something, the news is the most well-informed. Make fun of these things.

Chen Xiuyu thought for a while: "That matchmaker was very annoying. She led people to my house to propose marriage several times, but I rejected her and told people that I might be sick!"
