In the 1960s, a woman dressed as a man and a general came to give birth to a baby

Hearing the bell, the villagers slowly came out of their homes.

When everyone arrived at the square in front of the brigade headquarters, they saw the anxious captain standing in front of them. They asked, "Captain, what's wrong? Is there something urgent?"

The captain looked around and motioned for everyone to be quiet before he spoke: "Now, there is something very important to tell you. Just now, Zhang Yu saw nearby villagers rushing to our village. They were all holding shovels and spades. I guess they got the news and came to our village to steal food."

As soon as the captain's words came out, the villagers became excited and spoke one after another.

"How can this be possible? We don't have any food in the village."

"That's right, who are these people? Our ancestors have been here for generations, we are all old acquaintances, and they are here to rob us."

"Yes, kick him out."

"Yes, yes, yes, we must not let these people steal our food."

"Fuck them"

At this time, the captain said: "We only have so little food. It is our life. If it is taken away by others, our life will be gone. So we must protect our food."

Then the captain changed the subject and said seriously, "How come people knew about this food when we just got it back? Didn't I tell them not to tell anyone outside the village?"

At this time, there were several young wives from other villages in the crowd who looked particularly panicked, but it was precisely this panicked look that exposed them.

At one point, the villagers demanded that their grain be taken back. The young wives cried and begged, but it was no use. Upon hearing this, their families could no longer hold back and said they wanted to divorce them.

At this time, the team leader spoke up and said, "Now it's a new society, there is no such thing as a break, but their behavior has seriously affected the village, so I decided to take back their food as a punishment. If anyone commits the same offense again in the future, they will be driven out of the village. Do you think this is a good way to deal with it?"

After hearing what the captain said, everyone was still not satisfied, but they didn't say anything else.

At this time, the team leader said: "Now is the time for us to protect our own food. Everyone should go home, pick up shovels and block the two exits of the village. We must not let them get through again."

"Yes, yes, let's do it," everyone said and ran back home.

The people of Zhangjia Village were united as never before. As soon as they reached the intersection, they saw a group of people who were even more skinny than them, walking towards them with hoes and shovels.

Seeing them, the captain stood up and said seriously, "We are all old acquaintances. Are you going to start a robbery?"

Unexpectedly, as soon as Captain Zhang finished speaking, the people opposite him fell to the ground with a thump.

Under the surprised eyes of everyone in Zhangjia Village, the other people who came knelt down.

Captain Zhang has the kindness that is unique to our people. When he saw this, he didn't bother to question them. He stepped forward and helped the captains of the two villages up. Then he said, "Let's talk after you get up."

The two villages that came were Majia Village and Wangjiawan Village, which were the closest to Zhangjia Village. There were fights among these villages, but they were usually very united.

The captain of Majia Village had a worried look on his face and choked up as he said, "Old Zhang, Captain Zhang, please help us. Look at us. We have already used up all our energy just to get to your village."

At this time, the captain of Wangjiawan Village also said: "Brother, our three brigades have been intermarrying for hundreds of years, and there are relatives in each village. Old Ma and I are not bragging, but just now on the road, we caught two people who were about to rob your village?"

At this time, the villagers of Zhangjia Village said: "Isn't it you? You didn't dare to move when you saw that we were strong and powerful."

Hearing the villagers of Zhangjia Village say this about themselves, Captain Ma of Majia Village and Captain Wang of Wangjiawan Village were slandered and were not happy about it. They said, "Brother Zhang, where did this come from? How could we do such a thing?"

Although the team leader saw their intention of holding farm tools, the villagers didn’t know, so he said: “Don’t worry, they are a little worried because they see you are holding tools.”

The two team leaders looked back at the tools in the villagers' hands and said, "Without these tools, how could we have the strength to get here?!"

Captain Zhang looked at the villagers and said seriously: "Have you really seen someone who wants to rob our village?"

Captain Wang said: "Of course it's true, we have brought the person with us." Then he turned around and said: "Bring that person with you."

Not long after, a young man who looked about the same size as the villagers in Zhangjia Village and had a lecherous look on his face was pushed out. Zhang Yu looked at this man and the more he looked, the more familiar he seemed to me.

Suddenly he realized that he had seen the man who had glared at him today before. Thinking of this, he said, "You are in the same group as the robbers in town. Your brother is in jail. Did you know that?"

Hearing what Zhang Yu said, the young man suddenly raised his head and said anxiously: "You are talking nonsense. There is only one man in that family with women and children in the whole city, and he is a gigolo, my brother... You are cheating me." As he said that, he began to struggle violently.

At this time, Captain Zhang said: "Young man, I know you won't say anything, but you are hungry now. If you go hungry for a few more meals, you will tell everything." As he said that, he asked the villagers to lock up the man and keep him under strict watch.

Zhang Yu asked, "Sir, don't you want to try this?"

Captain Zhang explained: "Xiao Yu, this guy has been doing this for a long time. He won't tell us anything even if you ask him now. Let him starve. People who have fled from famine have all experienced hunger. The most unbearable thing for people like him is hunger. It won't be long before he tells us."

Hearing that the captain had a plan, Zhang Yu said nothing more.

At this time, Captain Zhang invited the two team leaders to come in for a talk, and had someone bring a large pot of thin bean dregs soup.

Zhang Yu wanted to go pick up his mother, but Captain Zhang stopped him. Zhang Yu had no choice but to ask Captain Zhang to arrange someone to pick her up.

In the brigade headquarters, three brigade leaders and Zhang Yu sat opposite each other. Captain Wang was impatient and could not sit still first. He said, "Brother Zhang, we are from the three villages and we are all family. I am a straightforward person and I will say whatever I want to say. I know your village has got food. Can you show us a way out? It doesn't matter for us old guys, but for those kids, they are still young. We really can't bear it." At the end, Captain Wang wiped away his tears.

Captain Ma glanced at Captain Wang and responded, "Yes, Brother Zhang, as long as you help us this time, our two villages will listen to you in the future."

The captain thought about what he had just seen, and couldn't bear to see the skinny people. So he said to them, "You go back to the village first. I have to ask if they have any food left. If they do, you have to exchange them for food."

Both captains said: "Don't worry about this, brother. You helped us, and we can't make things difficult for you. We have to give you the money even if we have to sell everything we have."

Seeing the two captains' statements, Captain Zhang said, "Okay, I'll go ask as soon as possible."

The people from these two villages came and left quickly. After a while, everyone left. Seeing that everyone had left, the team leader asked everyone to disperse.

At this time, the captain arranged for someone to bring Zhang's mother back. Zhang's family hadn't lived there for a while, so the captain asked Zhang's mother to come to his house first.

After everyone left, the captain looked at Zhang Yu and said, "Xiao Yu, to be honest, our three villages are really inseparable. It can be said that more than half of the marriages in our village are in these two villages. Do you think we can not help? Xiao Yu, uncle, I won't force you. If you can help, you can still help. Of course, if you can't help, then forget it, uncle will talk to them later."

Then he took out some money from his back and handed it to Zhang Yu sincerely, saying: "This is the money for the bean curd. I was going to give it to you. Now that you are here, I will give it to you."

Zhang Yu accepted it without hesitation. After all, the quantity was quite large, so wouldn't it be unreasonable for him not to charge for it?

Thinking about the captain's words, Zhang Yu suddenly felt that the words of our ancestors, "If you are poor, you should take care of yourself; if you are rich, you should help the world," made a lot of sense.

Zhang Yu had never experienced this era or famine before. He always thought that people should not be too saintly. How could there be so many time travelers who took out so much food during the famine? Aren’t they afraid of being exposed? But after experiencing it personally, he realized that this is not just a matter of one person, but is affected by many factors.

Just like this time, if he didn't give out food when the captain asked him to exchange it, then many people in the village would probably starve to death. Although the captain didn't know, the village would be gone, and he would become a person without a hometown. If he had to go to the village in the future, would the people in other villages treat him well? No.

After thinking for a long time, Zhang Yu raised his head and said to the captain seriously: "Uncle, I will ask my friend to take a look. I will give you a reply in two days. But you can't reveal this matter to me anyway. It is only known to you and me."

Hearing Zhang Yu's agreement, the captain said happily: "Xiao Yu, don't worry, even if a knife is put to my neck, I won't tell anyone. From now on, I will seal my mouth when I sleep and won't tell anyone even in my dreams."

Zhang Yu still trusted the captain, and he said, "In that case, I have a letter and I'll tell you."

Hearing Zhang Yu's words, the captain also knew that it was difficult to get food now. He said to Zhang Yu with concern: "Xiao Yu, this food issue has been going on for a long time. You should be patient and take your time. Don't make any trouble, otherwise, I will have a guilty conscience for the rest of my life."

Zhang Yu responded and said, "I know, sir."

After dealing with this matter, Zhang Yu and his mother visited every household to wish everyone a happy new year, and then rode their bicycles back to town.

Zhang Yu thought about the food he promised the captain, so he entered the space again and asked Liu Gen to prepare another batch of bean dregs. The main reason was that there was no such thing in the space. In order to get these inconspicuous bean dregs, Liu Gen and Zhang Yu had to make tofu and get the bean dregs. It was hard work for Zhang Yu, as he had to turn good things into bad things before sending them out.

This time, Zhang Yu deliberately delayed for two days. When the team leader and the team leaders of the two nearby villages could not wait any longer, he finally arrived and told the team leader that everything was ready.

He took out 2000 kilograms from each village, because this was the limit of his production of bean dregs in the past two days. However, in the eyes of the team leader, that was the limit of food Zhang Yu could get.

Seeing that the food was available, the team leader said happily, "It's quite a lot, Xiaoyu. This village has 2000 kilograms of food, and each person can get about kilograms. If we save some food, we can last until next year."

Just then, a voice came from outside the brigade headquarters: "Captain Zhang, I'm the secretary of the town government. There is a very urgent matter in the town, so you have to go to the meeting now. I'm going to notify other people." After that, without waiting for Captain Zhang to reply, he rode away in a hurry on his bike.
