Chapter 213: Captured a Young Widow
Chapter 213: Captured a Young Widow
Lu Yao suggested that the three men have a drink together.
Xie Chunfang has become a servant in the Bureau of Service.
Ding Mei also finished eating and left the table to play with the little tiger behind Lu Yao.
There were three men at the kang table, each occupying one side.
After downing a cup of wine, Yang Shouye finally raised his large face and asked:
"Company Commander Lu, what brings you here?"
Lu Yao laughed and said, "It's nothing. Can't I ask you for a drink? Does it have to be something else?"
"Huh? Ah! Oh! No, no, no... It's alright, drinking is the main thing! Come on, let me toast Company Commander Lu!"
He went from surprise to confusion, and then to inner peace and relaxation, changing his expression several times in just two seconds.
Ding Mei, sitting opposite him, watched him as if he were watching a play, finding it utterly ridiculous.
I really don't know what method Tuwazi used, but he managed to make him so obedient, just like a lapdog.
In truth, Yang Shouye was also unwilling to accept this.
However, there was no way to stop them; after a series of struggles, they suffered repeated defeats.
Now that our lifeline is in their hands, if we turn against them again, something terrible will definitely happen.
It's better to act docilely, make your stance clear, and take sides; at least that will preserve temporary stability.
To resist, one must have a sure chance.
Next, Lu Yao will try to matchmake Ding Dahu and Yang Shouye:
"Old Yang, you can't entirely blame Old Ding for beating you up that day. After all, your cheating was too obvious. Don't take it to heart. Come on, you two have a drink, let's forget about it and never mention it again!"
Yang Shouye was furious.
You, Lu Yao, aren't you just taking advantage of this situation and acting all innocent?
If I don't cheat, can you become the team leader smoothly?
However, not daring to contradict Lu Yao, he could only smile and raise his wine glass:
"It's all in the past, let's not talk about it anymore, we'll still be good friends!"
Ding Dahu also gave an awkward laugh.
I thought to myself, "You country bumpkin, you're like a cow marrying an elephant—you're incredibly awesome!"
Director Yang Shouye is being manipulated by you, and he seems helpless.
At this moment, his trust in Lu Yao increased even more.
Actually, Lu Yao was drinking with them today for two reasons, firstly so that Yang Shouye wouldn't cause trouble for Ding Dahu in the future.
Secondly, he wanted to prove his strength to Ding Dahu.
Make him believe in himself and stop causing trouble in the village.
When others cause trouble, Lu Yao beats them so badly they're left scrambling on the ground.
That era was one where whoever had the strongest arm was the most powerful.
But that won't work for Ding Dahu.
With Xiao Meizi in the middle, Lu Yao couldn't always resort to violence.
As for how he would lead the production team in the future, he didn't need to tell Yang Shouye at this time.
They just kept urging me to drink.
Firstly, Lu Yao had a high alcohol tolerance, and secondly, both of them had some pent-up frustrations.
The three of them drank until it got dark.
Ding Dahu got drunk, and Yang Shouye even wet the bed.
Xie Chunfang rolled her eyes in anger but didn't dare to say anything more.
When Lu Yao saw that the two of them had collapsed, he stopped drinking as well.
She was about to leave, holding the little tiger.
Ding Mei refused, telling him to leave Hu Niu behind.
Lu Yao agreed to let her play with him for one night.
Xie Chunfang helped Ding Mei back to her room.
Lu Yao walked out.
Let's look back at Ding Mei.
Ding Mei happened to look up at him at that moment.
Their eyes met, and Ding Mei lowered her head.
If Xie Chunfang hadn't been there, she would have had so much to say to Lu Yao.
Lu Yao smiled:
I'll come see you again tomorrow!
"Okay, sure. Remember to make milk for Tiger Girl tomorrow!"
"I know, but don't let it eat you tonight. The little tiger has a strong jaw; it might bite your head off!"
"Hey, you bastard, what nonsense are you spouting!"
Ding Mei swung a broom handle at him, and Lu Yao ran away.
Ding Mei was so angry that her face turned red.
Give Tiger Girl two slaps on the butt:
"If you dare bite me, I'll rip your tail off!"
Tiger Girl was so frightened that she hid under the mattress.
……
Lu Yao was also a little drunk.
I am very happy.
Since returning from the time travel, I've been busy with something at a fast pace.
Having finally achieved my goal, I can finally relax a bit.
Next, it's time to enjoy the New Year.
After the New Year, I started to implement my money-making plan.
This life is different from the previous one; we will develop rural areas in a down-to-earth manner.
He had been planning to develop his career in the countryside for over a decade, intending to surround the cities with rural areas and then expand there later.
This is called a strong person who never complains about their environment.
No matter the era or the environment, there is always room for development.
It's just that I activated it too late in my previous life.
So much so that I spent the Spring Festival of 1974 with my mother in the stable.
Having been given a second chance at life, making money is secondary; the most important thing is to enjoy family time.
When Zheng Shuang is born...
Don't think about this anymore, it's upsetting.
As Lu Yao was walking, he saw a dark figure ahead of him.
They walked furtively, crouching low.
He's acting like a thief so late at night, could he be a remnant of the Japanese invaders?
Lu Yao pulled out his gun.
Although Xiaobaihe said there were only thirty-seven people in their mountain village, who can guarantee she wasn't lying?
It would be terrible if accomplices came into the village to retaliate and cause some trouble.
There are plenty of scoundrels in this village, but there are also plenty of good people.
Lu Yao was slightly drunk and his steps were a little unsteady, but he could still easily handle two or three enemies.
They caught up in just a few steps.
Once he spotted only one person, he lunged and pinned him to the snowdrift.
The gun was pressed directly against the opponent's buttocks:
"Damn it, don't move! If you move even a fraction, I'll shoot you in the anus!"
"Oh my god, who is it? You scared me to death!"
A woman's voice.
Lu Yao turned her over and looked at her face up close.
Oh dear, it's Aunt Xilian, Zhang Mazi's widow.
Xilian also recognized Lu Yao.
He slapped me with both hands: "You stupid country bumpkin, what are you doing? What are you poking me with that thing? It hurts!"
He reached out and pulled up Lu Yao's gun barrel, then was shocked:
"You little bastard, you actually stabbed me with a gun!"
Lu Yao laughed: "Who told you to be sneaking around like that? I thought you were a thief! Did you steal something?"
As he spoke, he reached out and touched it.
They actually found a bundle in Xilian's hand.
He felt his way in through the seam of the bundle.
It's corn kernels...
"Hey, where did you get that?"
Lu Yao understood immediately.
"You came back towards the warehouse in the backyard of the brigade headquarters... Did you steal the brigade's grain?"
Xilian was terrified:
"Quiet down, quiet down, come here, Tuwazi, come inside and I'll talk to you."
He pulled Lu Yao up.
We were almost at her doorstep.
He quickly entered the courtyard, then opened the door and pulled Lu Yao inside as well.
This was Lu Yao's first visit after Zhang Mazi's death.
Nothing in the room had changed, except for the large black-and-white photo of Zhang Mazi on the cabinet, which looked rather eerie.
The photo was taken of him by the brigade after he killed the wild boar and saved Ding Dahu, and it was displayed on the honor roll for more than a year.
Now it's his portrait.
Xilian lit the kerosene lamp.
Lu Yao threw the package on the kang (a heated brick bed), opened it, and found about seven or eight pounds of corn kernels, soybeans, and other miscellaneous grains inside.
These are all corn kernels picked up from the fields after the autumn harvest.
It's the feed reserved for the horses.
At that time, after the autumn harvest, the production team would basically hand over all the grain to the commune's granary.
At most, only seed grains were left, which were properly stored by the warehouse keeper.
This kind of feed grain is swept up and kept to supplement the horses' feed, so it is not stored very carefully in the large warehouse.
Lu Yao sighed and said:
"Do you know that's theft...?"
After saying that, he turned around and was startled.
Xilian's pen was kneeling upright on the ground.
