"Second child, third child, go collect the grain quickly."

"The warehouse is full, go and light a fire. Locusts are afraid of fire..." Old Man Yan stumbled and got up from the ground with sweat on his face.

Old Chen was so frightened that she had already climbed out of bed, dragging her broken leg and shouting: "Locusts are really coming? Help, help!!!" Old Chen was so frightened that she went crazy.

The few pieces of land you own will be confiscated at all!

"You all go out to harvest rice and lie down at home waiting to die? Do you really think you are some kind of eldest lady?" Old Chen couldn't get rid of his broken leg, so he immediately scolded the two second daughters-in-law.

This meeting doesn't care about whether they can go to the fields or not.

"I want to take care of Niu Niu..." Mrs. Zhou frowned. She had never been out of the house in so many years of marriage.

"What are you doing with this little girl? Throw it away at home and go to the fields to save food. You're such a worthless thing, so hurry up." Old Chen sat on the ground with disheveled hair, crying and cursing.

When Xiao Chen saw his third daughter-in-law being scolded, her eyes were full of joy. When her mother-in-law looked over, she immediately went out with her basket on her back.

The village was noisy all night last night, and she was still cursing and making too much noise. The smell of rice in the air was so strong that the whole village had finished harvesting.

Only my own family confiscated it!

Yan Lao Er turned pale with fright, and hurriedly took the sickle and went out with Old Man Yan.

Yan Mancang lit the fire, his legs and legs trembling with fear.

It was dark now and there was almost no sunlight.

"Village Chief, Village Chief, please help me, please Village Chief, please help me. Village Chief, please save our family's food..." Old Man Yan, who had been dismissive last night, now begged the Village Chief with tears streaming down his face.

The village chief gritted his teeth with hatred: "You guys slept well last night."

Everyone’s tired calves are cramping, but you still find it too noisy.

"You will enjoy the blessing. We have been tired all night, and we still have to collect it for your family? Why can't your scholar master get the land?" Aunt Liu glanced at it, and Yan Xiucai did not follow.

Old man Yan didn't dare to say anything, he just wiped his tears and cried.

If there is no food, the whole family will not survive.

The village chief didn't care about the curse. He only cursed a few words in his mind and said hello: "When you are done with your work, come with me and collect as much as you can. Before the locusts enter the village, you must go home immediately and close the doors and windows." "

"Thank you guys, thank you guys." Old Man Yan thanked him hurriedly.

No one said anything, just scolded him, but food is the lifeblood of farmers.

He was so busy that he didn't even take a sip of water, and his clothes were already soaked with sweat. He just asked his wife to close the doors and windows, and hurried out.

"The grain is not confiscated at the old house, let me help." Yan Hansheng was on duty during the day and collecting grain at night, his eyes were red.

Yanchuan thought for a while and followed.

Everyone in the village goes there, but if you don't go there, it will hurt your spine.

Yan Lang stood at the door holding a bow: "I protect my parents." It was impossible for him to go to collect grain.

Yanchuan nodded.

Suisui stood in the yard, the morning light had been obscured by the locusts in the distance.

"Light a fire and burn them to death." Suisui thought for a moment, then ran up after Yan Chuan. Everyone in the Yan family was busy stuffing grain into the barn, but they didn't notice her running away at all.

When Suisui passed by, only half of the rice in the old house had been cut.

"It can't be done, it can't be done. There are already locusts approaching. If we don't leave, it will be difficult for us to return to the village." The rice fields are outside the village, and there is still some distance to go back.

Dragging grain is the most attractive thing for locusts, and if they don't move away, they'll be in trouble.

"Only one-third has been cut. This is only one-third. Please help me, please." Old Man Yan jumped up and down anxiously.

"Mr. Yan, it's not that we won't help. Take a look, there are already locusts in this field. If you don't leave, they won't be able to leave." This rice field has been cut clean, and it will inevitably hurt people.

"There are so many more in the fields."

"Who can blame so many people? The village chief has already informed us." Someone couldn't help but cursed.

At this point, I should have been lying down and taking a good rest, but unexpectedly I had to go out and take risks.

The Yan family's old house is really a disaster.

"No, we have already reached Juren Village. We are next, everyone go back to the village." The village chief shouted, and the movement in Juren Village next door could be heard. I'm just beating gongs and drums to scare the locusts.

I'm afraid there's still some rice left to cut.

Juren Village was lit up all night last night, so the damage was probably not huge.

The village chief breathed a sigh of relief, his lips were numb and his teeth were cold. He understood this truth.

"Burn them to death..." Suisui came to the field at some point and took the village chief's hand.

"When did you, this girl, run out? Where's your mother?" Yan Hansheng was so frightened that he was scared out of his wits. This locust was just a village away. This one with delicate skin and tender flesh might not survive.

Suisui ignored her father.

He raised his head and said calmly, "Put out dry straw and burn them to death." These locusts in the book swept across half of Vietnam from south to north.

"I'm afraid that the wind will blow up the mountain and the mountain fire will be unstoppable." The village chief was worried.

"I won't let him brag." Suisui patted her chest.

The village chief became excited when he heard this. He has been waiting for your words! !

"Village chief, she is just a three- or four-year-old girl. If she has time to set fire, why not cut rice for our family?"

"You damn girl, are you deliberately harming our family? Do you want all our rice to die in the mouths of locusts?" Yan Laoer said fiercely.

The fingertips pointed straight at Suisui, his eyes full of ferocity.

There was a snap.

"Ah!" Yan Laoer suddenly screamed.

I saw Yanchuan holding his index finger with one hand, with a cold expression, and gently broke it, and Yan Laoer screamed.

"Second uncle, please don't point your hands randomly. Otherwise, like your wrist, you might get injured at some point." Yan Chuan's voice was indifferent. He was obviously only a fifteen-year-old boy, but it frightened Yan Lao Er.

"Let go, let go, boss, don't you care about him? Who is he? How dare he attack his second uncle?" Old Man Yan cursed angrily.

He also felt that Yan Suisui deliberately blocked the village chief from harvesting rice.

She deliberately let the second child take care of her.

"My brother Chuan is very filial." Yan Hansheng looked like he didn't hear anything.

"Village chief, all the rice in our village has been harvested, and only our family is left. What does it matter whether the locusts burn it or not? It doesn't affect the rice in our village anyway." Old man Yan doesn't care about others. He only wants to harvest his own rice.

The village chief pondered for a moment: "Everyone is going to look for dry rice. The dry rice is connected together. There are still rice ears that fell last night in the ground, which is perfect for bait."

"Village chief, you can't, my house hasn't been collected yet." Old man Yan was angry.

"Your house has been confiscated, and you didn't do it yourself. I knocked on your door three times yesterday, and you still scolded me for being nosy." Wang Xingfeng spat.

When everyone heard this, their faces suddenly turned cold.

I didn’t know there was such a dispute.

"I reluctantly accepted half of it. You can only blame yourselves for this, not us. We have other things to do." Everyone said that they were just looking for dry rice to stoke the fire.

"You just believe her little girl's story. This Sangmenxing, it's all you who made my Yan family so uneasy. I should have drowned you when I brought you back!" Old man Yan kept talking, but Yan Chuan picked up his sister. , covering her ears gently.

Whisper in her ear.

"My sister coming to our home is the luckiest thing that has happened to my brother in his life." The young man's voice was low and hoarse, but exceptionally gentle.
