There is a treasure in the 60's family [MTL]

Chapter 10 Disbelief

The barn in Xiangfu Village is neatly and smoothly surveyed with stone slabs. In the past, many people in the village liked to rest next to the threshing floor during the slack season, the adults bragged and chatted, and the children laughed and played, especially during the harvest time, the whole threshing field was full of laughter.

This time, however, the atmosphere in the threshing floor was heavier than ever.

The villagers of Xiangfu Village came, more than 200 households, more than 1,000 people, standing in the dark on the barn, all silently looking at Song Deling on the high platform.

Song Baozhu was placed on the shoulders of the second brother Song Zhinan and stood at the back of the team. She had asked her family to help find materials in the yard before, but the village chief had to hold a meeting, and even if the Song family favored her, she couldn't be absent from the village meeting.

Song Baozhu was too young to prepare enough materials and production equipment without the help of her family, so she had to pester her family members to help her after she finished driving.

Wang Guifang and Song Dezhu, who loved the child, agreed without pausing, and the brothers also nodded and said yes.

There are so many people on the barn floor, but it is terrifyingly quiet, even the children who used to play in the past, they are standing quietly beside their parents at this time. 

They had a hunch in their hearts that the village chief was afraid that he would have to make a decision that was extremely important to the whole village.

Sure enough, Song Deling above spoke, and his voice was hoarse: "Everyone has seen it, there are more insects every day, let's catch one, those insects can grow into two or even more." 

In a few days, the crops will be eaten up, and there is no news from the county yet. I have called you here today to make a decision together. 

In just a few days, Song Deling's hair has been boiled half white, and his once shrewd eyes have become cloudy at this time: "Are you waiting for the experts in the county to develop insecticidal pesticides, or will you harvest the crops now?"

As soon as his voice fell, there was an uproar below.

"How to harvest now, the crops are just starting to grow, the sweet potatoes are just the thickness of the little finger, the corn has just borne fruit, the wheat has not yet been eared, what should I do now when I harvest it?!"

"So wait for the bugs to eat them all? Now I can still collect something, and in a few days there will be no leaves!

Others are holding out hopes: "Aren't the county leaders taking experts to study insecticides, maybe they will be researched immediately." His voice grew weaker and weaker, and it was clear that he himself felt that there was little hope.

In fact, the reason why Song Deling proposed this choice is that, according to the current situation, harvesting crops now is indeed the best choice, and second, the leaders in the county have also been under pressure from many parties. 

The surrounding Linxian counties were afraid that those insects would spread to their territory, and seeing that there was no progress in the research of insecticides, the leaders of those Linxian counties could not sit still, and persuaded the leaders of Yunxian County to make a decision as soon as possible, harvest the crops in the territory, and then burn these insects clean with a fire.

In this way, even if Yunxian County does not harvest the grains, at least the surrounding counties will not suffer losses, and when the time comes, they will naturally accept the above deployment and help Yunxian, and everyone will be fine to live a hard life for a year with their belts tightened.

What if the insects are allowed to spread, the whole city will suffer, and the horror is that according to the speed of the insects' reproduction, if they are not stopped, there may be more than one city, and the insects will grow at a geometric rate and will soon spread to the whole country.

The leaders of Yun County cannot afford to bear such a big responsibility. Even if they knew that the city would not be able to transfer excess food to relieve Yun County at that time, they would have no choice.

If you continue to wait, it will be a death, and maybe it will affect other districts, counties and even provinces and cities, at least you can control the disaster in Yunxian County.

It doesn't seem like a difficult decision.

However, the people in Yunxian County have to bear the consequences of the disaster themselves. In the coming year, they will need to live on this rare harvest, and the tragic situation of a few years ago will come back to everyone's minds.

Not surprisingly, when the final vote was held, everyone but a handful of people chose to harvest the crops now.

"In that case, don't sleep tonight, the big guys will be eaten by a lot of insects a day later, so let's start collecting it tonight." When the harvest is over, a fire will light all the bugs! Song Deling shook his hands and said viciously.

Song Baozhu sat on Song Zhinan's shoulder, and when she saw that everyone agreed to harvest the crops immediately, she was anxious, and her crisp voice sounded in the depressed atmosphere: "No, you can't harvest the crops, I have a way to kill insects!"

In an atmosphere of despair and stagnation, Song Baozhu's little tender voice was particularly loud.

Everyone looked at her in unison.

At this time, everyone's mood was both depressed and desperate, she shouted out in this voice, and immediately someone broke out, and seemed to have found an outlet: "Wang Guifang, when is this still messing around with the child, take her back, what is she yelling about such a big thing, if the crops can't be harvested, can this girl be responsible!"

Where did Wang Guifang say this to Song Baozhu, "What do you mean?" My family Zhuzhu said this, isn't it because she is sensible, the insects are because of my family Zhuzhu, and the crops can't be harvested because of my family Zhuzhu! 

So who knows? Your Song family spoils a girl so much, maybe God can't watch it, and this is why the big guy is affected! 

The people who spoke out had not dealt with Wang Guifang before, and they couldn't get used to their family treating a girl as a treasure all day long, and they looked like a vicious stepmother because of their patriarchy.

Zhou Ying stood in the crowd, heard someone say this, nodded secretly and agreed, the more he pondered, the more he felt that this was the case, and muttered in a low voice: "I said that the pet girl is too much and will be blessed, maybe the insect infestation is really caused by the second child and their family who are too fond of the girl in Baozhu."

Ma Xianglan stood not far from her, and rolled her eyes when she heard the words, no matter how Zhou Ying said that Wang Guifang was fine, but she couldn't put the basin on Song Baozhu's head, didn't this mean that Song Baozhu was a disaster star!

"Sister-in-law, don't be nonsense, the jewel is blessed when you see it, you don't know how much the second sister-in-law's family hurts the jewel, wait for them to hear it and see if they tear you apart!"

Mrs. Song, who was not far from her, also glared at her: "If you can't speak, shut up!"

Remembering that on the day of Xisan, she was kicked out of the door by Wang Guifang just by saying Song Baozhu's name, Zheng Ying shrank her head in fear and tightened her mouth.

only heard a snort, Wang Guifang pounced on and grabbed the hair of the woman who spoke just now: "Ma Daya, I'll let you talk nonsense, see if I don't tear your mouth apart!" 

The woman's family stepped forward to block Wang Guifang, and the five brothers of the Song family and Song Dezhu surrounded them at once.

"Stop!" , Song Deling roared, and everyone stopped.

"It's all going on, it's still noisy here. Ma Daya, apologize to Baozhu, what are you talking about her, a good child!

Ma Daya was not convinced, and had to argue.

Song Deling glared at her: "Do you know that this is feudal superstition!"

Most of the other people in the village like Song Baozhu very much, Ma Daya's words just now were really too much, Baozhu is a little girl, how can she have such a reputation, and they also pointed at her one after another.

Ma Daya reluctantly apologized.

Song Baozhu didn't know the seriousness of this matter, she only knew that this Aunt Ma had always disliked her. But it's nothing, there are so many people who like her anyway.

She stomped her feet and shouted, "Uncle Cousin, uncle and aunt, what I said is true, I can really kill those insects, you wait one more night, wait one more night and I can make insecticides."
