Chapter 5: Sixth Uncle(1/2)
Two boxes of canned food to change a wife.
My little cousin really dares to think about it.
However, in this world, it is already difficult to eat a full meal. If you can change a wife, you really can’t say who will suffer.
"You talk too much, so just marry you to your cousin."
My second uncle seemed unintentionally, but also seemed intentionally.
The second aunt gave him a blank look and then carefully looked at Wang Tian.
Wang Tian pretended to hear nothing.
Speaking of which, he has no blood relationship with his second uncle's family. If he wants to get married, he has to pursue four or five generations of people.
In theory, he and his cousin have a chance, and the law allows it to be allowed.
But Wang Tian himself knew that his second uncle looked down on him very much, but he could not be arrogant.
"Second uncle, the county's granary is empty, so there is no need to expect the county to rescue us."
Wang Tian didn't want his cousin to be too embarrassed, so he changed the topic and said: "According to my observation, in another week, when the strong radiation period changes to the weak radiation period, everyone can barely go out. I thought, everyone was so hungry that they were no longer protected by radiation dust, and the countryside was in chaos for a while."
"After a while?"
After hearing this statement, the second aunt was a little unbelievable: "Uncle Six..."
"Second aunt, sixth uncle is old and hungry, so I may not be able to suppress it."
Wang Tian knew what his second aunt wanted to say.
It’s just that Uncle Six is highly prestigious and the village chief, so everyone can’t get any problems if he has control over him.
But it depends on when.
In the era of rule of law, you are the village chief and have a high prestige. Everyone will definitely listen to you.
For example, in 1958, there was also a great famine, and many people starved to death.
There was no chaos in the general direction, and I had to endure it for three years.
But this time it's different.
The great famine that year was not as famine as there was no food at all, and the production brigades in each village still distributed food.
Now you see, there is no production team. It’s no longer time to eat big pot meals when you sell grain and water to the county.
In addition, the meteorites came without warning, and the city was destroyed, and the highest level was preserved at the county level.
The top is messy, can the bottom be messy?
"Xiaotian said it well."
"I'm so hungry that I can't even care about the king of heaven. Is there little to eat with Yi Zi?"
"If we have food at home, it doesn't mean that others have it too. If exposed, it will easily cause disaster."
"Let's take a look in two days. Many families in the village have run out of food. They must not be able to waste this way. I have to find a way."
"At that time, whether you are going to the county to beg for food or going to the suburbs to try your luck, you will have to find a way to live."
My second uncle was smoking a dry tobacco and his thoughts were the same as Wang Tian.
really.
Three days later, April 2nd.
The village really couldn't bear it anymore, so Uncle Liu knocked on the door from house to house and asked those who had no food to join the village committee.
What will we do together?
Form a convoy and walk to the suburbs to see if you can get food.
Meteorites target cities, but in ordinary second- and third-tier cities, the meteorites landed are relatively small, just like the ones designed.
There is no need to think about the central location and nothing will be left behind.
At the edge, you can't live without any grass. People can't live, and food can always be left behind.
Wang Tian and the others did not go to this operation.
Uncle Six asked, and only said that the family's food could last for a few days and then go until there was no food.
Everyone has their own aspirations.
Wang Tian and the others said this, and Uncle Six didn't say much.
A group of thirty-six people.
At noon, I left in three off-road vehicles, six cars, and eight vans.
It was already afternoon when the land reclamation team came back.
It took me more than three hours to go out and I went all the way to the suburbs.
The harvest should be quite good, and many people have smiles on their faces.
However, many people started coughing after they came back.
The next day, some people began to have rashes on their skin, accompanied by low fever and bone pain.
No one said anything.
But everyone knows that this is a symptom of radiation.
Some people who didn't go were talking sarcastic words behind their backs.
But then again, if you can not go, who would be willing to risk radiation to collect supplies in the wild?
They are all forced to do so.
April 10, 2015.
The second month of the peace era.
People died in the village again.
The one who died was an old man. He was one of the 36 people who went out to collect supplies. He was also a left-behind old man whose children worked outside and stayed in the countryside.
No one knows who killed him.
I only know that the door of his house is open and there are no signs of damage.
According to the scene, there were traces of fighting in the house and the old man's supplies were gone.
It was inferred that the person who came should know the old man, so he first opened the door and asked for supplies from the old man. After failing, he killed the old man in the house and snatched everything away.
For a time, all the villagers were in danger.
If it were said that in the first month of the peace era, the robbed Zhao Er and his wife might have been done by outsiders.
Then, most of the things that Old Man Sun did were done by the villagers.
Some people are afraid of radiation and dare not go outside to search for supplies.
But he dares to extend his black hand to his fellow men. Perhaps it is easier for thin old men to attack than radiation in the wild?
The next few days.
The village was filled with tension, and everyone turned a blind eye when they were sleeping.
The murderer did not commit the crime again.
Perhaps the supplies of Old Man Sun's house have been enough for him to live for a while, or, the second person who wanted to take risks was also shocked by the smell of gunpowder in the village.
Just when Wang Tian felt that he might be able to calm down for a few days.
On April 12, Sigao, a famous mummy girl from Xiaozhang Village next door, came with two nephews from the village.
"Wang Dapeng from your village borrowed me 20,000 yuan a year ago, and said he hadn't paid it back yet."
"It is natural to kill someone and pay off his life, and to pay off his debts."
"Don't say I'm unreasonable. What's his family? I'll take half of it, it won't be a way out for him, right?"
As he cried, the Si Gao led his men to snatch half of Wang Dapeng's family's belongings, and carried two packs of rice alone.
If someone hadn't seen it, Wang Tian wouldn't have known that Wang Dapeng's family had so much rice.
But it's not surprising to think about it.
Wang Dapeng's family farms, and they leave acre of land every year to plant wheat, which is specially used to exchange rice and white flour for eating.
He has never bought rice and flour from his family, but he was carried away two packs. He probably still has two packs at home, both of which are 100 kilograms of large bags.
"Wang Dapeng, you are a god-killer!"
"Last time I borrowed rice from you, you said that there was no rice at home. My old Cui had no choice but to go to the land reclamation team. When he came back, he couldn't get sick."
"You are so damn, Lao Cui is your brother-in-law. You would rather be snatched by an outsider than give our mother a few bites."
Wang Dapeng's sister cried and called her mother.
Look at this look, my relatives probably won’t be able to do it anymore. If you can hide, you should hide in the future.
