Away from the big book, the educated youth became the village favorite by running errands
Chapter 290 There is a ditch on the road
The village chief had fallen asleep, but he got up when he heard the noise. He only saw who was coming after the candle was lit.
The captain told the village chief what Song Shuangshuang had just said. The village chief immediately lost all sleepiness and asked Song Shuangshuang and her brother to explain in detail.
He couldn't help but pay attention to matters related to food.
"I had a bad argument with Village Chief Hao at the commune last time. I just remembered that Haojia Village is closer to the county town than us. I am worried that they will set up obstacles on the road and affect our grain transportation, or that they will trip us up if we meet them on the road. So I thought of coming to tell the captain."
Song Shuangshuang expressed her concerns truthfully.
The village chief knew Village Chief Hao. After thinking for a moment, he told the team leader to turn on the radio and call the villagers to gather.
They set off early!
It's impossible for the people in Haojia Village to leave earlier than them. It's just that the villagers have worked hard.
"Tell everyone to bring some dry food with them, or they'll be hungry when it's too early."
The village chief looked at Song Shuangshuang and her brother again and said, "Song Zhiqing, I would like to trouble you two. You are the only ones in the village who have bicycles. Please ride to the road to check the situation. If everything is ok, we will set off immediately when you come back."
Logically, he and the team leader should have gone, but they had to stay behind to take charge of the situation. So they could only ask the educated Song siblings to do it.
"It's okay, Village Chief, we'll go now." Before coming, she had thought of taking a look along the road, and she specially brought two flashlights.
The brother and sister went out and rode their bikes.
Before the two of them left the village, they heard the team leader turn on the radio to call the villagers to assemble.
Song Youlin rode very fast at first, and slowed down when he was almost near Haojia Village. Song Shuangshuang sat on the back and shone a flashlight on the road to see if there was anything that shouldn't be there.
As a result, the things that shouldn't have been there did not appear, but there were a few more potholes on the road. It would be fine if they were walking, but the food trucks were full of food, and they had to master balance to push the trucks steadily. If they turned left and right, the food would definitely fall, so they had to stop and find tools to fill the potholes before they could move on, which would definitely waste a lot of time.
Moreover, this pit was not there a long time ago, it must have been dug recently, and you can still see the traces of the shovel. And before the autumn harvest, when they entered the city, although the road was bumpy, there was definitely no pit this big!
The most disgusting thing is that there is not even any soil nearby. It was obviously taken away by someone, and the brother and sister can’t even fill it up!
The brother and sister were disgusted by Haojiacun's behavior and hurriedly got on their bikes and rushed back.
The villagers had already gathered and were loading food onto the truck. Although I didn't understand why the village had to set out so early this year, I got up as soon as I heard the notice.
Dry food and water have been prepared long ago, so you can just take them and go out.
He Feiyang and Tan Anjing came to look for Song Shuangshuang and her brother, and found that the door was not locked and there was no one in the room.
"Where did they go? The dry food and water are still on the table."
He Feiyang shone the flashlight around the yard and found that one bicycle was missing. He guessed that the two of them must have gone out for something.
"They must be busy with something else. Let's take the things and go to the gathering first, and then give them to them before we see Youlin again."
"Row."
The two of them took some dry food, a water bottle, and two straw hats and went out.
The team leader and the accountant were directing the villagers to load the grain onto the trucks, while the village chief was standing on the threshing floor platform looking at the road.
Anxiously waiting for Song Shuangshuang and her brother to come back.
It felt like a long time had passed before the village chief finally saw the brother and sister. He quickly came down from the stage and went to greet them.
"How is it? Nothing happened on the way, right?"
Ever since Song Shuangshuang and her brother left, the village chief has been worried.
He knew that Hao Daniu was a narrow-minded old bastard, and that he would probably find a chance to take revenge for the unpleasantness he had caused last time. At the same time, he was still holding on to the hope that Song Zhiqing and his sister were just overthinking and that nothing unexpected would happen.
But when the educated youth Xiao Song told him that there were two ditches near the fork in the road that led to Haojia Village, the village chief's eyes went dark and he almost lost his balance. The brother and sister were so scared that they hurried over to help the village chief.
"Xiao Song, educated youth, how many ditches and potholes do you think there are on the road?"
"Yes, there are two ditches. I remember that they were not there before the autumn harvest..."
The village chief was so angry that he gnashed his teeth and wished he could take a shovel to Village Chief Hao's house and beat him to death! How dare this old bastard do such a rotten thing!
Fortunately, the educated youth Song and his sister thought that he might take revenge on their village, so they ran to tell him and the team leader. Otherwise, they would definitely be delayed halfway when they set out, and they would not be able to deliver the grain first!
Just wait for that old bastard Hao Daniu!
The team leader had been paying attention to the village chief's movements. When he saw that he was not on the stage, he knew that it was Song Shuangshuang and her brother who had returned. He asked the accountant on the side to arrange the work first and went out to inquire about the situation.
"What's going on? Let's go..." Seeing the village chief's gloomy face, the team leader's heart skipped a beat before he could finish his words.
Was there really an accident?
The brother and sister looked at each other and told the captain what they had just discovered.
"We wanted to fill the ditch and then come back, but we didn't see any excavated soil nearby, so we came back first."
The team leader immediately guessed that the two ditches were dug by Village Chief Hao and his men, and that they had even transported the excavated soil away in order to trick their village.
Who transports grain on horseback and carries a shovel with them?
They were stuck on the road and had to arrange for someone to come back and get a shovel, and then dig soil from somewhere else to fill the ditch. They had to walk back and forth, and digging the soil would take a long time.
"Thanks to you two, go back and change clothes and get food. I will praise you after you deliver the grain." If it weren't for transporting grain, the captain would have let them rest in the village. But there was no other way. Except for those who had difficulty walking like Jiang Yi, everyone had to go, even the 15- or 16-year-old children in the village.
The brother and sister didn't waste any more time. They rode their bikes home, changed their clothes, and came back.
While the brother and sister went back to change clothes, the village chief discussed with the team leader what to do next. Should they arrange a few people to fill the ditch first and then return? Or should they just go out with tools and stop to fill the hole when they get there?
"Hao Daniu, that old bastard, don't blame me for being the one who did it on the fifteenth day. I'll say a few words after we finish loading the car, and then we'll take the shovel and set off directly!"
The village chief returned to the threshing floor in anger, and the team leader returned to the warehouse with a gloomy face and took out ten pickaxes and more than twenty shovels.
Some sharp-eyed villagers noticed that the two village leaders looked unhappy, and wondered what had happened to make them so angry.
Half an hour later, all the grain to be handed in was loaded onto the carts, and the villagers lined up pushing the carts and carrying their shoulder poles, ready to set off.
