The mayor led us to a fortune

Chapter 127 Under the Moonlight

"What's so scary about sleepwalking? I suspect you're faking it." Qiao Xin looked at Chen Dagui and said sharply.

Chen Dagui's eyes flickered, and he turned around in a panic and hid in the kitchen.

At this time, Chen Dagui's mother, Grandma Chen, spoke:

"Mayor, Dagui really didn't go to the grave to sleep on purpose, and he didn't even know what was going on. Every time he got up and went out in the middle of the night, we didn't dare to wake him up."

Qiao Xin: "If he really has sleepwalking, there are only two possibilities, one is heredity, and the other is mental factors, caused by too much pressure in the heart or too much work, we will eat and live with you, After a few days of observation, you will know what caused the sleepwalking."

Chen Dagui, his mother, and his son didn't say a word, it should be tacit agreement.

Fatty Wu saw the pitch-black stove and several large bowls with gaps, and frowned, "This kitchen is so dirty, can the cooked food be eaten?"

Qiao Xin kicked Fatty Wu: "Shut up! All the dirt houses in the countryside are like this!"

Fatty Wu covered his sore foot and walked aside to enjoy the cool air.

Qiao Xin and Xue Binghai went to check the front and back of the house, trying to find out the reason for their poverty.

"Chen Dagui, come here, where is the poverty alleviation chicken that the government gave you last year?" Qiao Xin waved to Chen Dagui who was chopping firewood.

Although Chen Dagui was silent, he put down the ax in his hand and took Qiao Xin and Xue Binghai to see the poverty alleviation chickens he raised.

In a small valley, a group of chickens with shiny coats ran happily around. The entrance of the small valley was surrounded by tall bamboo branches to prevent the chickens from running out.

Qiao Xin praised: "It's great! Chen Dagui, these local chickens for poverty alleviation can be sold for at least 8000 yuan. You can get out of poverty! Why didn't you report it?"

Chen Dagui remained silent.

Xue Binghai looked around and said, "Strange, where do these chickens live at night? Aren't they afraid that weasels will come and take them away?"

Chen Dagui: "There are two trees at the end of the valley. Chickens fly to the trees to sleep at night."

"Chen Dagui, why didn't you answer my question?" Qiao Xin asked sharply.

Chen Dagui suddenly roared angrily: "I've said it all, I just want to live a quiet life."

"You and your mother can live in poverty until the end of their lives, but have you ever thought about your son? He will have a family and start a business, right?" Qiao Xin said.

Chen Dagui was silent again, and Qiao Xin guessed that he must have a knot in his heart or an unknown story.We had to change the subject: "How many catties do these capons weigh now?"

Chen Dagui: "The average weight is about three catties."

Fatty Wu quickly said: "Now the purchase price of local chicken is 25 yuan a catty. This is an authentic free-range chicken, and it is the rarest thing in restaurants!"

……

The dinner at Chen Dagui's house was very simple, a pot of white porridge and a bowl of pickles. Qiao Xin and Xue Binghai managed to drink a bowl of porridge, but Fatty Wu said he wanted to lose weight and stop eating.

The place to sleep at night is even more terrifying. In order to observe the symptoms of Chen Dagui's sleepwalking, Qiao Xin proposed to sleep on the floor at the door of Chen Dagui's room.

The three of them fed the mosquitoes for half the night and finally fell asleep. Suddenly the door creaked and Chen Dagui walked out of the room.

Qiao Xin immediately got up and woke Xue Binghai and Fatty Wu.

The three of them didn't dare to speak, they tiptoed behind Chen Dagui.

Chen Dagui went to the corner of the yard, took a handful of iron handles, opened the chain of the gate, and walked up the mountain.

It just so happens that there is a moon tonight, so I can see it clearly.

The three of them followed Chen Dagui all the way up the mountain and came to a valley full of graves.

Chen Dagui stopped by one of the tombs and dug the soil with iron bars, and lay down to sleep when he was tired of digging.
