I am Fugui

Chapter 40 Good News

As soon as the two of them left the city gate, the sound of beating gongs and drums came from a distance, accompanied by the roar of trucks.

"Whose family's happy event is such a big scene." A passer-by said doubtfully, and stepped out of the middle of the road.

Xu Fugui and Laishun followed their footsteps and stood by the roadside, watching an army green truck approaching with black smoke from afar.

A gong and drum team stood in the truck's body, blowing and beating hard, the sound was so loud that it seemed to roar out a hole in the sky.

Seeing the county seat, a person on the truck took out a tin horn and shouted happily: "Good news, good news, the Wucheng negotiations are over, a consensus has been reached between the North and the South, and our peace has finally arrived!"

"Good news, good news, the war has ceased, the war has ceased, and peace has come."

"Good news good news."

The truck chugs past in front of them, and the sound of the big iron horn is also heard in the county town, which arouses people's surprise.

They didn't know what it was when they talked about Wucheng. These were the games of the upper class. When they heard that the war was gone, they burst into tears of joy.

With the sound of the loudspeaker, the people in the whole county cheered. People followed the truck, cheering and praising along with the sound of the loudspeaker.

This land has been in war for too long, and countless people died. Some people were born in the flames of war, and when it ended, the flames of war were still burning.

People, the bitter war is over for a long time.

"Master, the war is over." Even a stubborn person couldn't help grinning when he heard the news.

"The one sitting on the truck seems to be the magistrate. Look, it's really the magistrate. He even sticks out his head." Lai Shun added, and couldn't help but take two steps forward, looking at the people standing on the street. Cheers.

After watching for a while, he turned his head, the smile on his face turned into doubt, "Master, why are you unhappy?"

Xu Fugui looked away from the lively people, shook his head, "It's nothing, let's go home."

The so-called negotiation this time is nothing more than a joke.

Peace is just a smoke bomb thrown by those bad guys.

Xu Fugui, who was originally in a good mood, suddenly became in a bad mood. Looking at the land under his feet, he suddenly felt distressed.

The flames of war are about to flare up again.

However, this fire must be burned, and it cannot be broken or established. Only the establishment of Xintu can make this ancient land glow with new vitality.

He can't wait to be part of the new rabbit.

Unfortunately, it will take several years.

"Let's go, go home." Seeing that Laishun didn't leave, he kicked him lightly.

Although this peace is a smoke bomb, it will be peaceful for at least half a year, and after half a year, he will have to cheer up.

Because, half a year later, when the flames of war raged, he had to stay as far away as possible to avoid being dragged into a strong man.

The two continued on their way, leaving the excitement of the county behind in a short while.

Back at the entrance of Xujia Village, as expected, a large group of children were playing around the plum tree. When they saw them, their eyes lit up, and they yelled Uncle Gui and Brother Gui loudly.

However, these children have obviously been educated by the adults at home. At this time, they tried their best to pretend to be playing at the entrance of the village, and no one asked for it.

Xu Fugui rolled his eyes and asked, "Do you want to eat braised meat?"

Everyone looked at me and I looked at you, and swallowed one after another. In the end, the oldest children scratched the back of their heads and shook their heads duplicity, "Brother Gui, we are not hungry."

"That's right, we're not hungry. When we're hungry, we want to eat." Other children echoed.

Xu Fugui laughed twice, and counted the remaining lo-mei, "Help your brother dig out the sweet potatoes in the field, and I'll give you all the lo-mei, okay?"

The lo mei business took up a lot of his time and energy, and he really didn't have much time to do the work on the three acres of land.

Anyway, this group of dolls are also idle when they are idle, so they might as well go to his field to exercise.

When the children heard the words, they immediately nodded happily, no need to be reserved, they agreed faster than anyone else.

"Go, come home with me." Xu Fugui waved his hand, followed by a large group of children, like a king of children.

When they got home, Xu's father and Xu's mother were immediately surprised, why so many children came back with them.

Xu Fugui explained the reason, and Xu's mother laughed and cursed, "You are not afraid that their parents will come to you."

Xu's father even scolded: "Bastard, are you so cruel that you ask these dolls to help you work? How shameless I am in the village?"

Without waiting for Xu Fugui to speak, the children immediately supported him with each sentence:

"It's not that Brother Gui asked us to do it, but we want to do it ourselves."

"Master Xu, don't blame Uncle Gui, Uncle Gui is the best for us, and often gives us food."

"You can't call me master anymore. If we want to call you grandpa, we really want to work by ourselves."

Father Xu looked at the group of children dumbfounded, and patted the heads of the few in front, "I can't finish my own work at home, and I still come to help this beast, be careful to go back to the board."

"I'm not afraid of my father!" An eight or nine-year-old child with a mole on the corner of his eye wiped his nose. He is a child of Wang Xi's family. He shouted at this moment, causing everyone to laugh.

Xu Fugui shaved a few mouthfuls of rice, and then took the children to work in the field. Xu's father and Chang Gen stayed at home to clean the marinated goods.

They only had one hoe at home, and Laishun borrowed one from the neighbor. The two of them only needed to dig out sweet potatoes and potatoes.

The other children turned out the sweet potatoes and potatoes one by one, rubbed off the soil on them, and carried them back in the basket.

There are many people and strength is great. One child may have very few children, but there are so many children here, Xu Fugui and Laishun's speed can't keep up with them.

So these children are not in a hurry, they are all smiling, and they even have the time to fight.

When other people in the village passed by, they couldn't help laughing when they saw this scene and found out the reason.

The parents of some children passed by and saw the children who were not working at home go to work in other people's homes. They cursed angrily, but they didn't say much after laughing.

Before leaving, he even said: "Fugui, we all know that your family is busy. If you can't finish the work in the field, just tell me. There are so many people in our village, and we can finish it with one person's help."

Two mu of potatoes and one mu of sweet potatoes can’t be finished in one afternoon. He and Lai Shunguang dig at least five days. After all, they only have time in the afternoon.
