I Am That Little Fox [Quick Transmigration] Chapter 119: The Village Tyrant and the Little Educated Youth (34)
After confirming the relationship, the two got closer.
On days when they don’t need to go to work, Bai Xiaoxi and Liang Sheng either read books together, or go up the mountain together, sometimes making appointments to visit the commune.
The herbs Liang Sheng had collected on the mountain before were dried, and he took his two younger brothers and Bai Xiaoxi with him to the county town.
They set out before dawn, crossing the long yellow mud road between the fields, and walking to the commune.
With two more people, there was a lot of excitement. The two young people were carrying a basket, talking non-stop, and turning back to talk to Liang Sheng from time to time.
It was mainly with Liang Sheng. The two looked very eloquent, but they were very reserved in front of Bai Xiaoxi. When they greeted each other just now, they blushed and stuttered after saying just one sentence.
Liang Sheng drove them to the front to avoid being an eyesore.
“…Really, that fish was very big, it was taller than me, I remember very clearly, when I was only five years old, my dad sold the fish and asked my brother to go to school.”
“Bragger. Last time you said it was as thick as your waist. This time it was taller. Will it be as big as a water tank next time?!”
“Who is bragging! Can’t the fish be thick and long? If you don’t believe me, ask Brother Sheng! Brother Sheng is a few years older than us, he must have seen the fish.”
“Brother Sheng, did he brag, did you really see it?” Liang Sheng didn’t bother to pay attention to such nonsense, “A few of their things are with you, remember to distinguish clearly.” There were several people who went up the mountain together, but Liang Sheng only took two people to the county town each time. The other people’s things were taken by them and the money was counted when they returned.
“I’m clear,” a young man shook his back basket, “all are open.”
“By the way, Brother Sheng, didn’t you let us look at Liang Zhiqiang that day, the disease was not healed, and many people have come to his house these days. Last night, I saw the youngest daughter coming from the back of the mountain with an old woman. It was really strange. She doesn’t go during the day, and it’s so dark at night. She is so old that she is not afraid of falling.”
“I see, go your way.”
The two young men turned their heads back, and after a while they started talking again.
“Who is Yaopo?” Bai Xiaoxi asked Liang Sheng. It was indeed strange for an old woman to go to the captain’s house in the middle of the night.
“She lives on the other side of Xiaoyangmeiling. She doesn’t usually show up. You haven’t seen her.” Liang Sheng glanced at the first two people, and saw that they didn’t pay attention, before continuing, “She used to be a goddess.”
Yaopo was a goddess for about ten years. Later, she almost never came out during the “Breaking the Four Olds” campaign. Now the younger generations in Yangmeiling don’t know about it.
Bai Xiaoxi nodded. The goddess went to Liang Zhiqiang’s house, probably because of the “dirty stuff” on his body.
In fact, in her opinion, Liang Zhiqiang was overwhelmed with fright, plus colds and no good medicine, so he had repeated fevers, but the villagers secretly spread it mysteriously.
When they arrived at the county town by car, it was time for breakfast. Bai Xiaoxi and Liang Sheng looked at each other and tacitly went to the breakfast shop to line up.
The two young men took out the dry food from their arms and prepared to eat with the aroma wafting from the store.
Liang Sheng slapped them on the head, “Go stand in line.”
“But… Brother Sheng, we don’t have food stamps.” The young man touched his head.
“I have a ticket, don’t talk nonsense.” Liang Sheng was impatient, as if they said one more thing, he was about to beat someone.
