Chapter 20 Four Years
Gu Jin, who has been paying attention to this side, of course did not miss Gu Linger's disgusted eyes when she glanced at her, and couldn't help but feel a little cold.

Gu Jin didn't understand, since Gu Ling'er was born, he had never appeared in front of her eyes, nor had he dealt with the Gu family, how could he provoke such disgust from her.

But Gu Ling'er hated herself, and she didn't like her much, so in the future, it's just that the well water doesn't violate the river water.

In fact, Gu Changping also felt that there was something wrong with Gu Dani recently, and now that Shen Jingcheng asked this question on his face, he suddenly understood something.

It's okay for a daughter to have a spring heart, but it's absolutely not allowed for a man who has his eyes on his sister.

Gu Changping asked the two sons who didn't quite understand what Shen Jingcheng was going crazy to take Gu Sanni to leave, and then he spoke earnestly to Gu Dani.

"Dani, you are old too, you should know what you should know, you have to understand, even if we want something with the Lord, we can't move our minds, in a few years you should also say kiss, from now on if you have nothing to do Stay in the yard and don't run around, girls' roads are already difficult, don't block your own road."

"En." After all, Gu Dani was still young and didn't have so much insight, she lowered her head in embarrassment at what Gu Changping said, her eye circles were red.

Seeing her appearance, Gu Changping couldn't go on talking, he sighed and left, while Wang Shi who was next to her curled his lips a little angrily.

"A worthless thing."

Who is not good to look at, she has to look at a boy who is as fierce as her father, this is because she has had enough of a good life and wants to be beaten.

Gu Dani lowered her head when she was told, she hugged Gu Linger tightly and walked home.

The little fantasies in my heart were shattered by the two blows.

In fact, she was really just fantasizing in her heart. After all, that young man is so capable, and he is so kind to the second sister. As he grew older, the boy grew better and better. There is no boy in the village who looks like him so that people can't look away.

She just thought, if she was the one who was sold back then, would she be held in the hands of this young man now, would she not have to worry about Mrs. Wang every day and pinch herself if she didn't like her, then she should be living a decent life now. How wonderful!
But she just thought about it and didn't do anything, isn't that okay?
Gu Ling'er was very uncomfortable being hugged by her, but seeing her red eye circles, she also forgave her.

I didn't pay attention when I was in a bad mood, she understood.

After that, Gu Jin never saw Gu Dani looking this way again, and Shen Jingcheng found some fruit tree saplings, and she was busy planting fruit trees every day, so she gradually forgot about it.

Time flies, and it is four years in the blink of an eye.

In the past four years, Shen Jingcheng kept growing rapidly, and he has grown into a handsome boy with a height of more than 1.7 meters. Gu Jin has also grown a lot, and has become a ten-year-old girl with a delicate face.

Although the fields of the two have not increased any more in the past few years, the grain harvests are good every year, and they have saved a lot of money over the past few years.

But I don't know why, whenever Gu Jin asked Shen Jingcheng when to find a reliable private school, he said to wait, and slowly Gu Jin didn't ask much.

She felt that maybe Shen Jingcheng didn't like reading very much, if that was the case, then there was no need to keep asking, after all, some things only made sense if he was willing to do them.

With the spring breeze, green buds sprouted, and the fruit trees planted by the two on the west side of the yard began to bloom and bear fruit one after another this year. Gu Jin looked at the flowers of various colors every day, and couldn't get enough of them.

These fruit trees should be able to bear fruit this autumn, and she can eat whatever she wants by then.

But wishes are beautiful, and the picture Gu Jin imagined soon came to nothing.

It may be that the weather has been smooth and rainy in the past few years, and God can't see it. When the wheat is about to mature, a group of locusts suddenly fly over the sky, covering the wheat that is about to mature, and the green crops. The fruit trees with a few fruits have been bitten beyond recognition, and almost only the bare stems remain.

What do you mean by locusts crossing the border without leaving a blade of grass? Gu Jin couldn't even blink when he saw the red land thousands of miles away.

Even if she had lived her whole life, she had never seen such a scene, hadn't she?

Isn't this fatal?

But Gu Jin didn't know that their village was not bad, because she and Shen Jingcheng needed people all the year round, and in the past two years they bought two cows and some farm tools. Almost all the people in the village who worked for them had a few acres of land. There is also more or less a little food in reserve, so that if there is no wheat harvest, there will be no food.In other villages, those who waited for the wheat to come down and eat again were crying terribly, and the whole village was gloomy.

Shen Jingcheng brought Gu Jin out of the county, watching the scene along the way, his heart was extremely heavy.

"The county doesn't care?" Gu Jin asked Shen Jingcheng who was rarely silent.

"That's enough. I guess at most it's just some tax relief. This time, it's not just our county that's been affected. Almost every place in the prefecture has different locust plagues. Originally, the county didn't care about us, so we don't have much hope this time." Shen Jingcheng Thinking of Lin Hu's smacking sideways and wanting him to control the face of Shimu Village again, he was very depressed.

Fortunately, after the first year of flooding, everyone in the village had the habit of storing food. Otherwise, wouldn't he have to fill in holes in the property he had managed to save in the past few years?

Originally, he planned to take Gu Jin to study in the county after Mai Mai collected enough money to buy a house in the county this year. Who would have thought that this locust plague would ruin his plan again.

I don't know when this county magistrate who does nothing will be transferred away, and he will not seek his own government in his position. I don't know what the magistrate wants to do.

But Shen Jingcheng still thought too well, he thought that as long as he could manage the affairs of Shimu Village well, it would be over, but within a few days, there were refugees around their village, and they were obviously not locals.

This was not a good thing, Shen Jingcheng immediately took Gu Jin across the river to inform Lin Hu, but Lin Hu said that there was no way to do it.

Although they were plagued by locusts, most of them still had enough food to eat, but the Yellow River in the south flooded, flooding many villages and people.The most the county can do is count the number of people and send them back to their original places. Those who don't want to leave have no choice but to let them open up wasteland according to the law on resettlement of immigrants, and settle here from now on.

But these people have no long-term possessions, so what can they use to open up wasteland?What can be done is not begging everywhere?

The two felt heavy when they heard this. Lin Hu saw the two of them like this, so it was rare for Lin Hu to remind them kindly: "Go back and ask the people in the village not to be too generous to those refugees. Seeing that people are really pitiful, you can give some wild vegetables and steamed buns. Can food It’s better not to give to others, you know, once people face the situation of starving to death, they will do anything.”

Shen Jingcheng and Gu Jinting looked at each other. They were people who had experienced floods. Although Gu Jin died early, they also knew that people can do nothing to survive, and Shen Jingcheng obviously felt more about these things.

Seeing that the county still didn't want to take care of it, they had no choice but to leave the county government. However, when they left the county, the two discussed and bought two gongs and a copper bell, and decided to do something or something. Bar.

Back in the village, Shen Jingcheng called together men from various families to tell the outside situation, and at the same time told everyone the plan he had discussed with Gu Jin.
