A happy event in a fertile field: the black-bellied husband is as beautiful as a flower

Chapter 20 Either Nobody Can Get It
Meng Da insisted: "You are few, we are many, sometimes it is unavoidable. They are all a family, and your mother didn't say anything, why do you care about it."

Mrs. Ye smoothed things over again: "This time you are here to collect food, right? Jian Jia, hurry up and print food for Auntie."

Meng Yan didn't say anything for a while, but Meng Da thought she had compromised, so she said confidently: "Yesterday you hurt your grandmother's foot and gave her soup, and today you smashed your grandmother's forehead, see a doctor Medication, these are all money. Meng Yan, what are you going to do with these?"

Meng Yan asked back, "What is Uncle going to do?"

Meng Dao: "Since you are young and ignorant, I will not pursue other matters, but you caused the trouble, and you should pay for the medical expenses. Uncle knows that it is not easy for you and your mother, so he will not force you If you really want to spend some money, wait until the sorghum in the sorghum field is ripe, and you can use half a field of sorghum to convert it."

Meng Yan nodded, and said: "That's okay, I will also calculate with uncle, our family's grain has entered the uncle's warehouse every year, and it has been five years in a row. In the past five years, my mother and I have two buckets of grain every three months. There are no more than ten buckets a year, and the grain harvested in the field, whether it is sorghum, wheat or rice, adds up to at least two to three stones, and the rest should be returned by uncle."

Meng Da was choked and speechless for a while.

Mrs. Ye gave Meng Da a false look, and said, "Really, what are you and grandma fussing about? Grandma, your uncle is joking with you, you don't need to pay for grandma's medical expenses, we pay for it ourselves!"

Meng Yan said: "It's really hard for my aunt to be so generous, so please return the rest of the food to me."

Ye's face was a little uneasy, and said: "Didn't you say it, don't pursue it, why are you still biting it?"

Meng Yan narrowed her eyes and said, "Auntie said I don't want medical expenses, but I didn't say I don't want food."

When He entered the room, he took a quick cloth and wiped his forehead. When he came out, he said ferociously: "The grains were harvested and brought back to the warehouse after your uncle spent a lot of effort. He has no credit but hard work. You two have not starved to death all these years, what else do you want?!"

Meng Yan suddenly said, "Oh, it means that the uncle picks it back and it belongs to him. If I pick it away now, it will become mine again."

After finishing speaking, Meng Yan raised his foot and walked forward.

Seeing this, Meng Da and Mrs. Ye thought she was going to the granary, so they hurried to stop her.

In the end, they stopped in the wrong direction. Instead of going to the granary, Meng Yan went directly to his kitchen.

Ye came out of the kitchen before, there was smoke rising from the chimney, and there should be a fire in the kitchen.

Meng Yan went in to see that it was indeed the case, porridge was cooking in the pot, and the fire in the stove was burning quietly.

He Shi shouted from outside: "Little Hoof, what are you doing in the kitchen!"

Without saying a word, Meng Yan took out a burning stick from the stove, and walked out as if nothing had happened.

Meng Da and Ye Shi quickly dodged when they saw it, but He Shi didn't dare to bump into it rashly.

At this time, Meng Jianjia printed the grain and came out, putting it in a cloth bag, still looking like giving alms to others, and said: "Meng Yan, the grain has been packed for you."

It's just that when she saw Meng Yan walking towards her with a fire stick, she was terrified and stood aside, not even daring to move.

Meng Yan didn't even look at her, just walked past her.

Ye Shi came to her senses and exclaimed: "Stop her quickly, she is going to the granary!"

But Meng Yan has a torch in her hand, who dares to stop her.

When we arrived at the granary, the granary was made of wooden boards, and the grain inside was all dry things.

Standing at the entrance of the warehouse, Meng Yan smiled at the Meng Da family, whose faces were pale with fright, and said, "I don't feel bad if it is burned. At worst, my mother and I will find another way to make a living in the future. It's not like we haven't had a hard time. , but your family of five may have to drink northwest wind before this year's new food comes out. Why don't you all try it and see what it's like to be hungry."

Mrs. Ye quickly persuaded: "Meng Yan, calm down! Is it because the food that Jian Jia printed for you is not enough, and if it is not enough, we can add more?"

Meng Yan glanced at the granary, and said: "There is not much difference between the fields of the two families. In the past, I don't care about the ones you ate and sold, and the right is given to you as alms. Now in this granary, you get half and half. "

He Shi went into a rage on the spot: "Have a half point? Meng Yan, are you out of your mind? It would be nice to give you something to eat. How dare you agree!"

Ye's and Meng Da's faces were also very ugly, and they felt that Meng Yan was really out of support.

But Mrs. Ye was more calm, and Meng Da also showed his identity as an elder uncle, and said: "Ah, you are a bit difficult for you, there are five people in our family, and you and your mother are only two people. Aren't you embarrassing us..."

Meng Yan said: "The land has already been divided, and the crops are also planted by my mother and I. How many people are there in your family has half a dime to do with it?"

Meng Xuxu said angrily: "You, you don't have to put down the torch, you are so greedy, be careful it will not end well!"

Meng Yan squinted at her and said, "Are you greedy? Then everyone stop asking for food. Wait for the harvest at the end of this summer, and start all over again."

After all, she gestured to throw the torch into the barn.

Meng Da stopped quickly, almost gritted his teeth and said, "Meng Yan, stop! I'll pack food for you!"

Meng Yan smiled suddenly, and said: "That's right, half of the family is better than only a handful of ashes left. Then I will trouble uncle, the two pairs of picks you borrowed from our house have not been returned, and now they are just used Pack food."

In the end, everyone in Meng Da's family didn't look good, but Meng Da had to bring two pairs of food picks that he had borrowed from Meng Yan's house but hadn't replaced them, filled them with two loads of grain, and put them in the yard.

Half of the original surplus granary of the Meng family was gone at once.

He Shi and Ye Shi were heartbroken, it was like digging their flesh.The two sisters of the Meng family looked at Meng Yan with resentment and resentment.

Meng Da put out the food, but he would not help Meng Yan pick it back.

With such a heavy load of food, even if Meng Yan's mother came over, there was nothing she could do.

Meng Da thought that Meng Yan would only toss about a few times, and when she realized that she couldn't bear the weight, it would be fine.

But Meng Yan walked to the gate of the courtyard, waited for a while, and saw two villagers outside who had come back from work, so she stopped them.

Under the dumbfounded expressions of Meng Da's family, Meng Yan easily rewarded one and a half buckets of grain, and asked two villagers to help carry two loads of grain back to her home.

When they walked out of Meng Da's house, there was He's thumping his chest and scolding in the yard: "Why is there such a little bastard who was beaten a thousand times in the house!"

As long as the Xia family is not involved, Meng Yan doesn't bother to pay attention to it, and let her be wicked.

Ye Shi also became more and more annoyed as she thought about it, she squinted her eyes, and her eyes were a bit fierce, but she was calmer than He Shi, and said: "Since what happened in Shentang, I have felt that something is wrong with her, but now she seems to be a completely different person. .”
