Chapter 189: Hit Your Head with an Axe
After driving for three hours, Linzhou stopped at the entrance of a village and got off the car with a smile on his face.
The little girl also followed Linzhou, holding her phone and chatting with someone unknown, but she seemed to be having a very happy conversation. If nothing unexpected happened, it should be Susu who had just returned home.
Looking at the old men and women at the entrance of the village, Linzhou walked over and squatted beside them.
"Uncle, how is our village's income this year? How much land have you planted?"
"Only ten acres. I'm too old to work." The old man rolled up a tobacco leaf that he grew himself, took out his lighter to light it, looked at the smoke in front of him, and answered the question.
As for income, as a farmer all my life, I don’t expect to get rich, but just being able to make a living is enough.
Lin Zhou nodded, "That's fine, I think the money is enough."
"That's enough. It's much better now than before. The team also buys fertilizers for us and we don't have to spend any money." Although he has worked hard for a long time, the old man still has a smile on his face.
Honest and unpretentious.
Jiang Xiyue kept her head down, so that people at the entrance of the village didn't recognize her...
Linzhou, who was squatting there, chatted briefly for a few more words before standing up and stretching his body.
"Very good... Then you continue to rest, I will go for a walk in the village."
"Okay, if you can't, come to my house for lunch at noon, and bring the female comrade behind you." The old man put out his cigarette and stood up. "Let's go, I'll take you to see where the animals can get some water."
The three people left the village. The village was not very big, but the air was really good.
Walking on the cement road in the village, Jiang Xiyue couldn't help herself any longer, "Grandpa Fushuan, you don't recognize me, I can find it here without you leading me."
The old man was stunned for a moment, then turned and looked at Jiang Xiyue, squinting his eyes for a long time.
"It's Yueyue! Why did you think of coming back to visit at this time? Your grandfather said that you are engaged. This is..."
"Hello, Grandpa." Linzhou hurriedly greeted him. After all, he went to the village entrance to chat just to feel the power of the strongest intelligence agency in China.
But it is not as weird as people say on the Internet. At most, the old men and women would chat about whether they had finished hoeing the fields, what to eat for lunch at home, and whether they want to find a place to play cards when they come back in the afternoon.
Looking at Linzhou, the old man's face was full of happy smiles, and finally he stretched out his right hand.
"He's not a bad young man, at least he's handsome."
"Thank you, Grandpa." Linzhou nodded, his face full of smiles.
After a brief greeting, the old man named Fu Shuan went to feed the animals. Lin Zhou glanced at Jiang Xiyue and said, "Why don't you drive over here? I don't know the way."
But this time, Jiang Xiyue shook her little head like a rattle and rejected it at the speed of light.
"I don't want to. The road here is so narrow. I don't dare to drive."
"Okay...then I'll go open it." Linzhou pursed his lips and walked towards the village entrance. Jiang Xiyue stood there waiting.
It didn't take long for the car to stop at the gate of a small courtyard. Jiang Xiyue pushed the door open and walked in, then greeted Linzhou.
"Zhou Zhou, come... "
When the two walked in, they saw an old man squatting at the door, sharpening an axe.
If you look closely, you can see that the axe has been sharpened to a very sharp edge.
The old man had a cigarette in his mouth and a hint of murderous intent could be seen in his brows, but overall, he was just an ordinary old man.
The girl made a silent gesture to her lover, then walked cautiously behind the old man and said, "Grandpa, why are you sharpening the axe?"
The old man was startled, but he quickly reacted and his face was full of joy.
"Yueyue, why are you back? I'm going to look for your grandma. Wait..."
"No need. Grandma must be playing cards outside again. Tell me why you are sharpening the axe first." Jiang Xiyue grabbed her grandfather's arm and instantly turned into a child's attitude.
The old man looked at the shiny axe in his hand, raised it and swung it a few times, "It's okay, I just want to scare that young man in your family. What's his name, Linzhou?"
The old man, who was in his seventies, swung the axe with great vigor, even though it was just an ordinary axe for chopping wood.
Lin Zhou, who was standing next to him, shrank his neck and walked up to him. "Grandpa, I am the young man you want to scare, but my crime is not punishable by death, right?"
After hearing the voice, the old man turned his head and looked at Linzhou.
"You're a handsome boy. I'm just teasing Yueyue... Come in first... I won't chop you..."
Although he didn't know what was going on, Linzhou still followed the old man into the house. The room was simply decorated. Apart from the dining table, there was only a large wardrobe from the early years.
"Yueyue, why did you want to come and see grandpa?"
"He said that we are engaged, and it would be unreasonable for us not to come to see the old man ." Jiang Xiyue told the truth, picked up the washed apples on the table and threw them to Linzhou.
Linzhou took the apple, looked at the old man and asked.
"Grandpa, have you ever carried a gun before?"
"Well, how did you tell that?" The old man took out a transparent glass pot from the cupboard and brewed a pot of tea. "I'll go find your grandmother and ask her to cook for you two."
Seeing the old man leaving, Lin Zhou felt relieved. "Yueyue, is grandpa so annoying? I almost thought my life was in danger."
Seeing that Linzhou was scared, Jiang Xiyue's face was full of smiles.
"It's okay, Grandpa isn't that scary, but if you bully me, let him hit you on the head with an axe."
"You can hit my head as you like. I'm stubborn." After answering Jiang Xiyue casually, Linzhou continued to chew the apple seriously. It must be said that the old man knows how to live. This apple is crisp, sweet, juicy and crunchy.
As for the issue of being hit on the head, it didn't matter. It was just a joke anyway, and he would not bully Jiang Xiyue.
Bullying such a cute girl will make you be thrown away by a dump truck and you will never be able to be reborn in another world.
When Linzhou was thinking about how many worlds he had to save to meet a girl like this, Jiang Xiyue took over the conversation, "Well... Zhou Zhou, why do you knock your big head randomly? Do you have any other heads?"
"Yes, my ten fingers hurt when they are hit. As for the hit on my head, I can at least withstand two hits. From the second hit onwards, I won't be considered a man if I make a sound."
Linzhou continued to joke while looking forward to lunch. The old people have been cooking for their entire lives, so even stir-fried cabbage stalks wouldn't be that bad.
About ten minutes later, Jiang Xiyue's grandparents came in, followed by a middle-aged man. They started to speak as soon as they entered the door.
"This must be your granddaughter and future grandson-in-law, I was scared to death... The township called me just now and said there seemed to be an inspection team..."
But Old Man Jiang lit a cigarette and was about to kick the middle-aged man in the butt.
"If you do less unscrupulous things, you won't have to worry about people checking on you..."
