Chapter 691 Because This Saved His Life
Gao Guilan refused without a second thought. No one dared to patrol tonight. Zheng Dagui insisted on going to her place to rest assured that the old man would be taken care of. As for the children, the second son's wife could take care of them.
"Dad, you give orders forcefully. Whoever doesn't go will have their work points deducted. You will be exhausted to death if you rely on yourself alone?"
Zheng Xinyue frowned and looked at her father. He had to command the autumn harvest during the day and patrol at night. Not to mention a man who was almost fifty years old, even young people would be exhausted in a few days?
It felt that the villagers were deliberately lazy and were afraid of thundering means.
"Xinyue is right. Guarding the grain is everyone's business. You can't do it alone."
Gao Guilan also looked at her husband. She persuaded the old man but he didn't listen. He would always listen to his daughter's words!
"Okay, I'll have a meeting tonight to organize the brave young men in the village to patrol for the double workers.
Zheng Dagui felt very tired today. He didn't sleep well last night and was busy all day. At night, his body was falling apart. No matter how unwilling he was to admit that his daughter was right, he couldn't hold on for a few days.
After dinner, Zheng Dagui went to the brigade headquarters, leaving the three mothers with five children at home. Zheng Xinyue had looked at the door several times but didn't see the third brother come back.
"Mom, what's going on? Where is the third brother?"
Zheng Xinyue couldn't help her anxiety and asked Gao Guilan when she came back from outside.
Gao Guilan sat on the kang to make cotton shoes for the children. She didn't seem to be in a hurry, but she was already boiling in her heart. After hearing her daughter's question, she no longer had the mood to work. She pinned the large-size needle on the upper of the shoe, looked at the sky outside the window that was getting darker and darker, and said with a sigh:
"Tsk, did you work overtime?"
"Maybe, the grain depot is about to collect grain and should be very busy? "
Zheng Xinyue said this without any confidence. Now all the teams have not paid their public grain! The grain depot cannot be so busy that they have to work overtime.
Besides, the third brother is a security guard, not a worker.
At this time, Zheng Laosan, who was being talked about by them, was desperately chasing the thief!
It turned out that when Zheng Laosan and his comrades were doing their last patrol when they were about to get off work, they found a dark shadow circling around the grain bin. It looked like he was carrying a sack. The two shouted at him, and the man turned around and ran away when he saw them.
Zheng Laosan and his comrades had to chase him, of course. The thief seemed to do it on purpose. He stopped when he saw that he could not catch up with him, and then ran again when he caught up with him. After several times, Zheng Laosan was so angry that he ran away and chased him desperately. He would not stop until he caught up with this guy and beat the shit out of him.
"Cheng Bao, don't chase him. There is a forest ahead and he will disappear if you go in. "
Zheng Chengbao's comrade Lao Han was panting in the back, waving at Zheng Chengbao and telling him to go back.
Anyway, it wasn't much that was stolen, and it was public property, so why risk your life!
"No, Lao Han, you take a break first, I'll go after him."
Zheng Lao San said this and rushed into the woods. The man he called Lao Han sat on the ground and gasped. It was just to earn some salary, there was no need to fight so hard, right?
"Don't chase a desperate enemy. "Well, Old Han is being pedantic, but it's a pity that Zheng Chengbao doesn't understand and doesn't want to listen.
The evening sky at least has the afterglow of the setting sun, but the forest is not so good. The light is dim, not to mention that you can't see your hand in front of you, and you can't see too far when you first enter.
Luckily, Zheng Laosan grew up in the mountains and always hunts in the mountains. His eyesight and hearing are better than ordinary people. After entering the woods, he didn't rush to chase, but looked around vigilantly and pricked up his ears to listen to the sound.
If someone runs, he can judge the person's position by the sound.
This is Zheng Laosan's rough but meticulous. He is not reckless and can keep his composure. It is because of this that he saved his life.
