Chapter 125 The Little Stone Who Complained
Plan roughly what you are going to do next.
Gu Mingwei then made detailed arrangements for each villager to be responsible for which area.
Those who work fast and well should focus on farming, regardless of whether the prophecy comes true or not.
After unanimous decision by all villagers, the village decided to plant more sweet potatoes and potatoes this year.
Gu Mingwei assigned people who usually worked hard for three days and rested for two days to different positions according to their age.
The older ones build and look after the stoves.
The young people are managed personally by Guan Youliang.
They take turns to patrol the village every day.
Whenever outsiders are found entering the village, they will be stopped immediately and reported in a timely manner.
The other part has to intensify training and go hunting outside the forest first. This time all the prey will be handed over to the village for distribution.
In the cafeteria, Gu Mingwei also asked for everyone's opinions.
Let them decide for themselves whether to bring their own rations and heat them up in the cafeteria every day.
It is better to hand in the rations to the canteen for unified preparation, and then come back to get the food.
After voting, more people agreed to eat together.
The only disagreement was about how much food rations to hand over. No one wanted to suffer a loss, and everyone was afraid of suffering a loss.
Finally, Gu Mingyue suggested that each family should hand in corresponding food rations based on the number of people.
The village office will announce the amount of food rations paid by each household.
Each family takes as much as they eat every day, and everyone supervises each other.
If anyone is found to be deliberately taking less and eating more, he will be expelled from the team and allowed to go home to eat.
As long as you are not ashamed, are not afraid of being stabbed in the back for a meal, and are not afraid of being laughed at for the rest of your life, you can do this.
The villagers who wanted to have evil thoughts heard this and suppressed their thoughts silently...
Gu Mingwei also selected Yu Shuye, the daughter-in-law of accountant Gu Mingxin, and Tian Maisui, the mother of Li Dayong, to be responsible for cooking in the canteen.
Sisters-in-law Liu Caixia and Bai Fenglai were responsible for serving meals.
Everyone had no objection, saying the cooking skills were good and the server was fair.
The only outsider is Bai Fenglai. Given his status, no one would make things difficult for him.
Finally, Gu Mingwei said, "Let's leave it at that for now, and we'll act accordingly. As long as everyone works together, I don't believe there will be any obstacles that we can't overcome."
Everyone was arranged clearly, and the villagers seemed to have found a backbone and were no longer uneasy.
The whole village worked together, and the people of Gujia Village were busy for a long time.
As a result, everyone has no time to think about all kinds of messes.
The villagers left one after another.
Gu Mingwei thought of the suspension bridge at the entrance of the village. Lin Shan’s craftsmanship was quick and steady, and he turned the suspension bridge into a vine bridge in just a few days.
It looks simple, but it is actually very sturdy.
Apart from being a little shaky, there was no problem at all in moving back and forth.
There were already some brave boys in the village who went up there and walked back and forth several times.
Thinking of this, he called Guan Youliang and told him, "Don't let the villagers go over the suspension bridge recently. Just say it's not repaired yet and they have to wait for Master Lin to come over and repair it next time when he's free. This will prevent word of the vine bridge from reaching the commune. Since it's close, they'll come over more often. It takes a long time to go on the main road, and I believe they won't come back again after going there once."
Guan Youliang suggested, "Uncle Lin taught me how to weave this. Otherwise, I can remove part of the two ends to make the bridge look more broken. Wouldn't that make it more realistic?"
Gu Mingwei worriedly asked, "Will it still be usable after that?"
Guan Youliang affirmed, "Absolutely. Uncle Lin said that he was worried that the rattan would become brittle and disconnected over the years. That's why we weave them with separate rope buckles. This way, even if we remove a part and replace it with a new one later, it won't be affected."
Gu Mingwei was relieved and said, "Uncle Lin is really a man of great skill and courage. He has really thought it through. I will do as you say."
After returning home, Gu Guoqiang frowned and kept fiddling with the yellow paper in his hands, puzzled.
He said to Gu Mingyue, "I have heard of a method of secretly delivering secret messages. Take two green onions, cut off their leaves, leaving the green onion whites, squeeze out the green onion juice, and use a brush to dip the green onion juice to write on white paper. After a while, the green onion juice dries up and the words on the white paper can no longer be seen. If you put this white paper over a candle flame, the brown words will immediately appear. But I didn't smell any strange smell on the yellow paper. Did you learn similar knowledge when you were in school?"
Gu Mingyue lowered her eyes slightly to hide her surprise. She didn't expect that her uncle could think of this.
Pretend to think, then answer, "I don't really have any impression of that."
Then he asked again, "Uncle, do you suspect someone is playing tricks on you? But why? It can't be to play a trick on the villagers."
Gu Guoqiang was also very puzzled. "This is exactly what I can't understand. If it was really a prank, there would be no need to write these specious words. The important thing is how the other party managed to change the yellow paper of so many people in the village overnight;
If it was a gang crime, the villagers would not have heard the noise. Besides, it is impossible to make such a big fuss just to scare people. It is not worth it. It cannot be a peddler, because many people buy together for others and then divide it up... Oh, I can't figure it out."
Gu Mingyue asked tentatively, "Should we report it to the police?"
"No, not to mention that we are violating the rules by burning paper privately. Even if we tell others, it will spread feudal superstition, which is unacceptable."
Uncle Gu sighed and said, "Forget it, let's wait and see. Maybe it's fake."
Although he said he didn't believe it, his solemn tone revealed his worry.
Gu Mingyue stayed at her uncle's house for a while, then walked home taking Xiao Shitou with him.
On the way, I heard him muttering, "Aunt, Xinsheng brother just had a fight with Xingfu, it was so fierce."
"Hmm? Do you know why?"
The little guy shook his head and said, "I don't know. Anyway, my new brother scolded me until I cried. It was scary."
Gu Mingyue paused and looked at Xiao Shitou's indignant expression.
After realizing what was happening, he squatted down and pinched his little nose. "Oh, our little Shitou has learned to complain!"
The little guy said shyly, "Auntie told you everything."
Gu Mingyue couldn't help laughing and said, "It's Aunt's fault. Little Stone is not complaining, he is trying to help Xingfu vent his anger, right?"
The little guy stretched out his thumb and index finger and gestured, "I have a little idea."
Gu Mingyue, who was touched by the cuteness, stood up and took him by the hand while walking, saying, "Okay, auntie will take you to seek justice and teach your new brother a lesson."
Little Stone quickly said, "Aunt, don't be too harsh. Xinsheng brother is very kind to me."
“Haha…Okay.”
When I came to Bai Fenglai, I saw her and Yixuan Yinuo squatting under the window of the freshman room with their butts sticking out.
Gu Mingyue was amused by the uniform poses of the group and asked with a smile, "What kind of pose are you guys wearing?"
"Shh..." Bai Fenglai quickly turned around and signaled to Gu Mingyue to speak in a low voice.
Then he pointed to the freshman's room and whispered, "It's noisy."
At this time, the people in the room also heard the sound and the quarrel stopped abruptly.
Afterwards, the freshman opened the door.
Yixuan Yinuo had no time to retreat and almost fell to the ground.
The freshman quickly supported the two of them and said helplessly, "You two, have you learned to eavesdrop?"
Gu Mingyue was eager to watch the fun and pointed at Bai Fenglai, "I'll report her as well."
Yixuan, Yinuo and Xiao Shitou all looked at Gu Mingyue in shock.
The accusing look seemed to be asking her which gang she belonged to...
