Chapter 42

Most people of this generation are superstitious. This kid’s words are similar to those of others, so Jiang Yan believed them about 70% of the time.

Although he was telling the truth, it didn’t mean that there was nothing hidden. Jiang Yan still decided to give him a shock.

With a cold snort, Jiang Yan walked towards the crowd over there. Zhou Yaozu followed behind her and said anxiously: “Aunt, please believe me, what I said is true…”

“Shut up.”

“oh.”

Jiang Yan was annoyed by his noise and scolded him harshly.

Zhou Yaozu instantly quieted down, looking pitiful and aggrieved, which made Jiang Yan want to beat him up again.

If what he said was true, then this kid could still be saved.

He was not very old, and unlike people in later generations who had been exposed to the world of debauchery and bad ideas, he could still be pulled back.

Returning to the crowd, Jiang Yan looked at Yuan Sufeng and said, “Sister-in-law Sufeng, let’s go to the village. I’m sorry to bother you here.”

“Okay, go ahead.”

Yuan Sufeng nodded, and Jiang Yan led everyone towards Nanqiao Village.

…

At the gate of the military zone.

Feng Yingchun ran over panting. The two young soldiers from the third battalion happened to be on guard today. They both recognized Feng Yingchun.

“Sister-in-law, what’s the matter with you in such a hurry?”

After taking two deep breaths, Feng Yingchun said hurriedly, “Quick, find a few people to go to the beach with me to move the fish. We caught several hundred kilograms today. We can’t eat them all, so we decided to give them to the group.”

“ah?”

The young soldier was confused and suspected that he was hallucinating. He confirmed, “Sister-in-law, are you saying that you caught several hundred kilograms of fish at the beach?”

Feng Yingchun nodded affirmatively. Seeing the stunned look on the young soldier’s face, he said, “I know you can’t believe it, but it’s true. Go to the cafeteria and call for help.”

“Oh, okay. I’ll be there right away. Wait a minute, sister-in-law.”

Upon hearing that it was true, the young soldier hurried into the military area.

“Squad leader, squad leader, this is not good, this is not good, ah no, this is great, this is great.”

The squad leader was leading the team in training. Hearing these confusing words, he couldn’t help but get angry. “Say it nicely? What’s not nice about it? It’s too nice.”

“Our deputy battalion commander’s wife, Sister Yingchun, told us to go to the beach to move the fish. They caught several hundred kilograms of fish at the beach.”

“What?”

The squad leader was shocked, but the soldiers were disciplined and would not joke about such things, so he hurriedly took the young soldier to the canteen for logistics.

The regiment commander took a large force to the field for training, and there were not many people left, so he could only ask the canteen logistics staff for help.

Upon hearing that fish were being moved, the logistics squad leader was extremely happy and quickly took his men and followed Feng Yingchun to the beach.

From afar, looking at the pile of fresh sea fish by the rocks on the beach, the canteen monitor couldn’t stop smiling.

“I’m rich, I’m rich.”

The other soldiers were also very happy and exclaimed in surprise.

“Oh my goodness, why are there so many fish?”

“How delicious! I can eat meat today. I haven’t had fish soup for a long time. Squad leader, please make some fish soup.”

“Let’s wait for the day. The main troops haven’t come back yet, so let’s marinate it first.”

“Yes.”

These days even the army doesn’t have refrigerators or freezers. If you want to store meat for a long time, you can only pickle it first. Fortunately, the army still has a large supply of salt, but you don’t feel bad about it.

Seeing Feng Yingchun coming with his men, Yuan Sufeng stepped forward to greet them.

“You are here. Sister Hongxiu and Sister Jiang Yan have already left with the people from the village. I have to go over and take a look. I hope there won’t be any trouble.”

The squad leader of the third battalion asked, “What are the sisters-in-law doing in the village?”

Yuan Sufeng told the story.

The squad leader of the third battalion was so angry that someone dared to bully the wives of soldiers in their regiment. He was about to bring people to support Jiang Yan and He Hongxiu.

Feng Yingchun hurriedly stopped them and explained, “This matter can be big or small. If you go with so many people, you will just make a big deal out of it.

so.

You can send a young soldier and tell him that he is going to help the sisters-in-law. Just let him listen to Sister Jiang Yan. Sister Jiang Yan is a person with her own ideas. ”

Yuan Sufeng also nodded, “Yes, listen to Sister Jiang Yan, she is smart, you won’t go wrong if you listen to her.”

The squad leader thought so too, so he sent a smart young soldier to Nanqiao Village.

After receiving the order, the young soldier immediately ran towards Nanqiao Village.

The matter was resolved, and everyone looked at the pile of fresh fish. The canteen monitor looked at the two sisters-in-law and asked, “Sister-in-law, did you get your fish?”

The two shook their heads.

Yuan Sufeng replied: “We have discussed it and decided that 30 kilograms of fish will be enough for each of the four families. You can move the rest to the group.”

The canteen monitor thought for a moment and said, “How about this, sister-in-law, you guys pick some fresh fish to eat in the next two days. When the fish is marinated, I’ll have someone send it to you.”

“Okay, let’s pick four fresh fish to eat in the next two days.”

Afterwards, the two sisters-in-law picked four groupers weighing four or five kilograms each. The soldiers went back to the army and got a cart to bring all the fish back to the regiment.

Looking at the hill of fish, the military camp was filled with a joyful atmosphere.

…

At the same time, Jiang Yan and her group also arrived near Nanqiao Village. He Hongxiu walked up to Jiang Yan and whispered:

“Sister, how are you going to deal with this? There is no evidence in Huang Zhaodi’s case. If we expose it rashly, we may end up in trouble.”

Jiang Yan whispered, “Sister-in-law, I know that Huang Zhaodi’s problem cannot be solved, I just want to give the village a deterrent.

The little girl named Nan Nan is so pretty and has that kind of character. If I don’t give these kids a shock, I’m worried that she will become the next Huang Zhaodi. ”

Hearing Jiang Yan say this, He Hongxiu felt relieved. “It’s good that you know your limits. I’m afraid you’ll be careless and make a big fuss without any evidence. You’ll suffer the consequences then.”

Holding He Hongxiu’s hand, Jiang Yan said affectionately, “Thank you, sister-in-law. You came with me even though you knew it was not a good thing.”

“You mean well, too.”

He Hongxiu is also a girl from the countryside. How could she not know how difficult life is for a girl without anyone to support her?

“Don’t worry, sister-in-law. This matter is not difficult to handle.”

Without actual evidence, Jiang Yan would not take the initiative to cause trouble, but it would be possible to control a group of children and make the villagers wary.

Seeing Jiang Yan’s confident look, He Hongxiu said with a smile: “It’s OK as long as you know what’s going on. Bring it back and I’ll support you.”

As they were talking, everyone walked into the village, and the children cheered loudly when they saw their parents working in the fields.

“Mom, I picked up a lot of fish today, come and see!”

“Dad, Nanny, we can eat fish today. I have a bucket full of fish.”

…

Hearing the children’s cheers, the villagers looked up.

The aunts and wives in the village came quickly and smiled when they saw the fish in the children’s buckets. They praised the children for being sensible and said they could finally contribute to the family.

Zhou Yaozu looked up at Jiang Yan pitifully, “Aunt, please let me go. I really know I was wrong.”

“If you make a mistake, you must be punished, but seeing that you have a good attitude in admitting your mistake, I will ask the branch secretary to give you a lighter punishment.”

Jiang Yan didn’t want to punish him severely, but if he wasn’t punished, this kid would continue to bully other kids in the future.

Zhou Yaozu was both happy and worried. He was happy that the punishment would be lighter, but worried that he would still be punished.

Jiang Yan and He Hongxiu brought Zhou Yaozu directly to the village office, where the village party secretary was looking at the account book with worry.

So poor!

Too poor.

Our village is so poor. Please, can a pie fall from the sky and kill me?

Just when I was feeling depressed, the office door was suddenly pushed open.

The two military wives whom I had just met yesterday came in with Zhou Yaozu, the most mischievous boy in the village. It was obvious that they were here to call for punishment.

Zhang Ruidong stood up from the stool and said, “You little bastard, have you done something bad again? I have to teach you a lesson today on behalf of your parents. You just keep getting into trouble every day.”

“Grandpa Secretary, I was wrong. I really know I was wrong.”

When Zhou Yaozu saw Zhang Ruidong picking up the dry bamboo stick at hand, he shuddered with fear and turned around and ran out.
