I am Xu Lingjun, who is full of love in the courtyard

Chapter 20. 20. Gossip

After returning home, Xu Lingjun locked the door and went to bed.

At this time, the mountains are full of jackals, and even the village is not safe.Not to mention that there are tigers, wolves, wild boars and other beasts on the mountain.Occasionally, when he was very hungry, he would go down the mountain and enter the village to hunt and kill the livestock and poultry raised in the village.In the early years, the village even hung children in bamboo baskets at night to prevent leopard cats, jackals, wolves and other animals from entering the house and snatching children away.

In a word, the village is not very safe.Xu Lingjun lived at the foot of the mountain, closest to the mountain.The only way for the beast to go down the mountain.Rumor has it that decades ago, someone in the village was killed by a tiger at home.

Therefore, in this era, the villagers would not come out for a walk if it was not a major event.

People in later generations don't watch TV, just spend time with their mobile phones.Fortunately, Xu Lingjun did not have this habit.After delivering the courier every day, he was exhausted to death when he got home from get off work.After taking a shower, I usually go straight to sleep.

I fell asleep, and soon the next morning came.The industrious villagers have already gone into the mountains to cut firewood after breakfast.A load of firewood can be sold for 1 cent, and can be used for 1 or 2 days.Now as long as the trees are not cut down, some shrubs are cut down, and the branches of the trees are cut without affecting the growth of the trees.

In addition, all the crops in the field have been harvested now, only the sweet potatoes are still immature.The villagers do not have any farm work.Now that each family lives in each house, everyone's thoughts are alive.Among them, most of them are chopping firewood and carrying it down the mountain to sell.

It's just that in Xu Lingjun's opinion, it won't last long.Yamashita does not have such a large consumption power.Unless the villagers are willing to carry the firewood to the village of Qianqian, which is more than ten kilometers away.There is a plain area, with a lot of land and good living conditions, but there are few mountains and short of firewood, and the selling price is high.

The villagers got up at dawn.Although Xu Lingjun is also diligent, he lives an 867 life.Go to work at 8:6 am and leave work at [-]:[-] pm, working every day throughout the year.

He slept soundly, but in the eyes of others he was a slob.People in the village always like to make comparisons.Houses are higher and more luxurious than those built by others.One's own descendants are better than others'.I always like to occupy the sky and occupy the land, not giving up an inch of land.

No, Xu Lingjun has only been here for a few days, and someone started gossiping.People in the village like to gather here in Shijing, and several rows of long stones are placed here, providing a lot of seats.

There are only a few people in the village who like to gossip the most.Aunt Ling, Aunt Rong, and Aunt Lan are the kings of gossip in the village and know everything in the village.The key is that these three like to get together, and they don't fight each other.Except for these three, the rest is Jia Zhang who likes to curse.

No, Xu Lingjun just got up late.Then people passed it on.Somehow, it reached Jia Zhang's mouth.

Jia Zhang doesn't do anything every day. At most, she works as a female worker and picks out insoles for the children.I like to come to Jingkou to bask in the sun every morning.

Listening to the women in the village chatting while washing clothes.

"Yesterday, I watched the bum in the village cook a big pot of rice at home. I see, the food distributed this time is not enough for him to make."

"Now the village doesn't make big pots of rice, and will make a living by itself in the future. I see, this kid is starving to death. How lazy he is, he can't support himself at all."

"Who says it's not. But, since the village stopped working, the children in my family have also become lazy. Now the sun is on their buttocks before getting up."

"That's not it. If my child didn't remind me every day, he would sleep until noon."

Listening to these words, Mrs. Jia Zhang remembered that her grandson Bang Geng was fined to clean the toilet for 10 days for falsely accusing Xu Lingjun a few days ago.How could my grandson suffer so much.It's not that he and Qin Huairu took turns to help.

Jiazhang's resentment towards Xu Lingjun accumulated every day, and she already wanted to find trouble with him.No, she immediately thought of a way.

"Let me tell you, the most duplicitous person in our village is Xu Laoyou. This person was very active in his work before. Since the division of the fields, you see, he will not go out until the sun is on his buttocks. And I have never gone to the mountains to cut firewood. Yesterday I bought a catty of pork and came back. I think I will starve to death sooner or later."

What the three kings of gossip love most is to comment on right and wrong.After hearing this, he stopped talking and looked at Jia Zhang.

Aunt Ling said first, "Aunt Zhang, your family was fined because of Xu Lingjun a few days ago. You didn't mean to speak ill of others, did you?"

"Xiaoling, if you don't believe me, you can ask your family, Zhu Guocan, to see if this is the case?"

"Aunt Zhang, my family has gone to the mountains to cut firewood. I don't know if what you said is true or not."

"Xiao Ling, is it interesting for me to lie to you now? I won't be exposed when your man comes back."

"makes sense."

Aunt Lan: "I didn't expect that Mr. Xu would be so active at work, but now he is lazy. Fortunately, Uncle Dong asked me to introduce him to someone. Isn't this a blow to my brand?"

Aunt Rong: "You are the only one who still has a signboard. You have used all kinds of tricks. You have introduced them, and there is no one who does not want to go back on their word. You still have credibility."

After hearing this, Aunt Lan couldn't bear it, so she put down the laundry mallet in her hand.Pointing to Aunt Rong, she said, "You are amazing. If you introduce others on a blind date, they will go to the wrong house. The key is that you can still make a couple. If someone invites you, it will be a real disaster."

"What are you talking about, I was entrusted by someone, haven't I met the man, otherwise how could I go wrong. Speaking of which, I was also deceived by that family."

"You are fooling the ghost. I heard that the family gave more, so you did it on purpose. "

"You fart. You are not a good person yourself. Last time the villagers asked you to help introduce partners. You introduced the girl in your hand to several boys at the same time, and charged several introduction fees. Am I right? Can I tell who it is?"

"Don't slander me. I didn't do this kind of thing. The people I introduce are all what you want. I have never deceived anyone or forced anyone."

……

The two suddenly quarreled like this.It's not right for Jia Zhang to see this.The two quarreled again, and it was for revenge on Xu Lingjun. "Why are you guys still arguing on your own? It's not because of Xu Lingjun."

"Indeed, there's no reason for us to quarrel with Xu Laoyou."

"Yes."

……

Aunt Dong came to fetch water and rice for cooking early in the morning, and she heard the discussions of these people.When I got home, I said to Uncle Dong, "My wife, Xiao Ling, Xiao Rong, and Xiao Lan are chatting again."
