The Snail Spirit Travels to the 1970s

Chapter 165 Losing money and avoiding disaster

Tian Ligang didn't want to confront them head-on. He just wanted to spend money to avoid disaster and send these people away quickly, so as not to let them hang around in the team anymore.

When those people heard that they were going to stew a chicken for them, they really became much more anxious. The next few people all went in, took a quick look and came out. They didn't turn over all the clothes to look for something like the previous few people did.

The families of Old Lady Tian were the last ones to arrive. They just walked around the yard and then followed Tian Ligang home.

The first thing Tian Ligang did when he got home was to tell his wife to let Tian Yun go to Tian Lisong's house for some shelter.

Tian Yun was so beautiful, and he was worried that those people would have bad intentions.

Under the constant urging of the man with the red armband, Tian Ligang caught an old hen at home and prepared to kill it for meat.

After Tian Ligang's wife quietly sent Tian Yun out the door, she turned around and looked at the old hen flapping its wings in Tian Ligang's hands, feeling very distressed.

There are only three old hens in the family. If Tian Ligang kills one, there will only be two left in the family.

People usually let the hens sit on brood in May, and I don’t know if there are any chicks for her to choose from now.

If not, she would have to raise a brood of chicks herself, and it would take at least five months for the chicks to grow up to the point where they could lay eggs. How many eggs could they lay in these five months?

The more I thought about it, the more distressed I felt, but she didn't say anything. Instead, she went back into the house to boil some water, and then took out a basin to collect the chicken blood.

After Tian Lisong had prepared the chickens, she brought the chickens into the house and chopped them up to make stewed chicken and chicken blood porridge. She then mixed some cornmeal and made some cornmeal pancakes. She went to the vegetable garden to pick some vegetables and stir-fried two dishes. She managed to put together a full table of food for them.

The hosts and guests were having a great time eating here, and Tian Tian was very surprised to see Tian Yun coming over at home.

"Sister Tian Yun? Why are you here?" Tian Tian put down the firewood stick in her hand, trotted out and pulled Tian Yun in.

Tian Yun's face didn't look very good, but when she saw Old Lady Tian and Lin Meiyu, she still greeted them with a smile.

Old Mrs. Tian didn't say anything. When she saw those people come to their house, take a look around and leave, she already knew what had happened.

This wasn't the first time this had happened. After those people raided a few houses, they discovered that there was nothing left to raid. They were extremely poor and couldn't make a penny. That's when Tian Ligang came forward and invited them to his home for dinner.

Those who didn't make any money don't want to lose the opportunity to eat meat, so they will readily agree to go with Tian Ligang, and the people behind them will have less trouble.

The only ones who had a hard time were the families whose homes were raided at the beginning. They had to take the trouble to clean up after their homes were turned into a mess.

Fortunately, they really couldn't make much money in the rural areas throughout the year, and everyone was afraid that the money would be confiscated, so every household hid it very well. After suffering losses in their brigade for a few years, those people tacitly accepted that every household in their brigade was poor.

Old Mrs. Tian also knew Tian Ligang's concerns. When Tian Yun was young, Tian Ligang didn't pay attention to this matter. In recent years, as Tian Yun grew up, Tian Ligang began to worry about such things happening. Whenever those people came to their house, he would let Tian Yun stay at other relatives' homes.

Tian Yun also comes to the home of Tian Lisong, who has the best relationship with Tian Ligang, the most frequently visited.

However, Tian Tian studied in the county town before and rarely saw Tian Yun. In addition, the original owner's personality was not as lively as Tian Tian, ​​and she would not talk to Tian Yun in a friendly manner.

After greeting Tian Yun, Old Lady Tian asked Tian Tian and Tian Yun to go to her room to play, and then call them out when it was time to cook.

Tian Tian had no idea what Old Lady Tian was thinking. She happily pulled Tian Yun into the house and wanted to share with her the gossip she had just heard from Shen Lingling.

Tian Yun had a stern face and didn't want to listen to Tian Tian. Tian Tian talked to herself for a while before she realized that something was wrong with Tian Yun. She swallowed to relieve her dry throat and asked carefully, "Sister Tian Yun? What's wrong with you? Is there something wrong?"

Normally, Tian Yun was also very excited to hear these gossips. Like Tian Tian, ​​she basically did not go out unless it was necessary. Before Tian Yun and Tian Tian became good friends, Tian Yun basically didn't know the gossip in the village. Later, when she had a good relationship with Shen Lingling and had a source of information, she learned a lot of things she didn't know before.

Every time Shen Lingling talked about gossip, Tian Yun was more interested than Tian Tian. Unlike this time, he looked so uneasy.

Tian Yun was also a little worried about her family, so she told Tian Tian everything.

She didn't know what her father was thinking. She just felt that those people were too vicious. Her father asked her to come to Tian Tian's house because he was afraid that she would be scared. Although it was embarrassing to have lunch here, Tian Yun knew that her father would give all the food to Old Lady Tian when he came to pick her up in the afternoon, so she didn't feel too burdened.

Compared to the naive Tian Yun, after hearing what Tian Yun said, Tian Tian, ​​who had experienced an information explosion, quickly realized what Tian Ligang was worried about. However, she did not say anything else, but comforted Tian Yun, "Don't worry, he came to your house for a meal. If he targeted your family, if they come to our team again in the future, no one will kill chickens for them to eat."

Hearing what Tian Tian said, Tian Yun couldn't help laughing out loud, and his mood relaxed a lot.

Tian Lisong just came back at noon. She wanted to ask Tian Lisong about the people in the cowshed, but she was embarrassed to ask since Tian Yun was here. She planned to ask Tian Lisong after Tian Yun left.

After having lunch at Tian Tian's house, Tian Yun took a nap in Tian Tian's room. In the afternoon, he took Tian Tian and Old Lady Tian to pull weeds in the vegetable garden for the whole afternoon.

Seeing that it was almost evening, Tian Yun became a little anxious and told Old Mrs. Tian that he wanted to go home.

Old Mrs. Tian was also worried that Tian Yun would run into those people with red armbands on his way back, so she didn't let Tian Yun go back.

It was almost time for dinner at Old Lady Tian's house before Li Dahua came over to pick up Tian Yun with a gloomy face.

"Grandma! Why did you come just now?" Seeing Li Dahua coming, Tian Yun couldn't wait to greet her, "How is things at home? Nothing happened, right?"

Li Dahua's expression eased a little when she saw her granddaughter. "It's okay! Everything is fine! Those people have left, but your dad drank a little too much and is now drunk and can't walk, so I came to pick you up!"

Li Dahua raised her hand and threw the cloth bag in her hand to Old Lady Tian, ​​"The food is for you, my family Yunyun's food!"

Old Mrs. Tian didn't bother to be polite with Li Dahua and took the bag of grain. "Is Ligang really okay?"

When Tian Ligang was mentioned, Li Dahua's face darkened again, and he gritted his teeth and said, "It's okay!"

For the meal this afternoon, his family brought in a chicken, ten eggs, and two kilograms of cornmeal. I won’t say much about the vegetables grown at home, since they were grown by their own family and can grow again after we finish eating them.

In addition to these, they also went to the supply and marketing cooperative in the town to buy five kilograms of wine. The group drank half of it, and those with red armbands packed up all the remaining food.
