Hearing the old man's surprise, Wu Mingyi could not help but ask, "uncle Liu, when I was a child, I heard from the old people in the village that Lin Sheng's grandfather had gone when he was making trouble with ghosts. It seems that Lin Sheng's father grew up eating the family food of the village. Is this true? "
Liu Shugong held the old genealogy and looked at the name of Wu Zhongkun for a long time. After a while, he slowly put it down and put it on the tea table beside him. He sighed, looked up at Wu Mingyi and said, "this is quite right."
"But there are some things you young people don't understand. All the people in our village have to be grateful to Uncle tiger, that is, Lin Sheng, his grandfather. "
"If Lin Sheng's grandfather hadn't saved the whole village, I'm afraid that few people in our village could survive under the gun of the little devil..."
Speaking of this, the old man sighed with some unhappiness: "do you know why I lost my temper when the village Assembly asked everyone to donate money to Linsheng's family last time?"
Hearing that the sixth uncle suddenly turned to other things, Wu Mingyi was quite puzzled and immediately asked, "uncle Liu, what do you have to say directly. There's no one else here
"To tell you the truth, I'm still a little puzzled to see you in such a big fire at the village meeting."
Although Wu Mingyi was also curious about the "Uncle tiger" mentioned by the sixth uncle just now, that is, Lin Sheng's grandfather saved the whole village under the little devil's gun.
However, now that the sixth uncle mentioned that the village assembly had donated money to the Linsheng family the year before last, he also wanted to find out what the situation was.
The sixth uncle just said: "I'm such a bad old man who's half cut to the ground. I didn't have to say something. But now I really want to say that after all the old people in this village have gone, you little ones are a bit disrespectful. It's ungrateful! "
"So are the other old people. They all forget how Uncle tiger saved their family. Now, seeing that the Linsheng family are in trouble, they are all turtles, and none of them is willing to help them. Even come out and say a fair word... "
Mention this stubble, the sixth uncle is obviously some righteous indignation hard to calm.
"Our Shajing village is now such a big village, and no one is living a tight life. There are also many rich and expensive people. However, I want you to donate some money to the Linsheng family. At best, you can save the boy from the Linsheng family and leave a incense stick for uncle tiger. "
"But you'd better, one by one, fifty-one or two hundred, and you still look like you don't want to. The money donated by the whole village plus one yuan is less than 20000 yuan, which is not enough for the boy of Linsheng's family to spend a month on medicine. You're just acting as beggars. "
"Don't think I'm old and my eyes are dim and my ears are deaf. I know very well that you, many people have a casual meal outside. Women go out for thousands of times without blinking their eyes."
"To ask you to donate some money to the Linsheng family is like cutting meat on you with a knife and killing you. Don't think about it. If there was no uncle tiger in those years, let alone you, your grandfather and great grandfather all died under the small devil's gun. Where did you come back? "
The old man is obviously angry at the mention of these, and his words are also garrulous and endless.
I think that in this matter, the people in the village did not do a good job. I feel sorry for uncle tiger's family. I am not happy.
It used to be held back, stuffy in the heart, no place to say, no place to vent. Now I finally have a chance, so I want to spit out the words that have been holding my head for a long time.
For many old things, Wu Mingyi's age naturally does not know much.
Therefore, at the moment, he did not know what to say except for embarrassment. At the beginning, although his donation was the highest in the village, it was only 1000 yuan.
Most of the people in other people's homes are 30, 50, 100 or 200, and those who can donate three or five hundred are rare. However, Wu Mingyi knew that at that time, the sixth uncle had donated all his old money, which was more than 3000 yuan.
His two sons were forced to donate 1000 yuan each. He even quarreled with his two sons.
"Uncle Liu, you also know that I'm not old enough to know much about the old stories about ghosts in the village. You just said that Lin Sheng's grandfather saved the whole village. What's the matter? Can you tell me? "
Wu Mingyi was a little embarrassed, but still asked.
The old man looked at him. It seemed that he had just let out the call. After sighing, a trace of reminiscence appeared on his face, and he said slowly, "when the devils broke out, our village was in disaster. You should have heard something about it
"When the devils came to the village, they really wanted to rob what they saw. Who has a woman's wife, that is called a miserable. In some nearby villages, how many good maidens and wives have been ruined by the devil? Even the whole village has been slaughtered by ghosts
"If there was not a tiger uncle in our village, it would not have been better. At that time, I was just a teenager. I saw with my own eyes that at that time, a small group of devils rushed into our village to burn, kill and plunder, and to catch and spoil women everywhere. ""Fortunately, at that time, uncle tiger made a move, and a man was stunned and killed all the devils in that small group with bare hands. Then he took the whole village, old and young, to take refuge in the mountains... "
Speaking of this, the old man couldn't help but pause, and slightly sighed: "speaking of Uncle tiger, I admire him from the bottom of my heart. That skill is really very strong. Do you know why I call Lin Sheng his grandfather "Uncle tiger"? That's because he killed a tiger himself
"At that time, uncle tiger was the hero of our village and the most capable person in the whole village. He was a famous name in the distance of hundreds of miles. At that time, all the children in the village liked to play with Uncle tiger behind him, and they pestered him to learn his kung fu
"Sixth uncle, Lin Sheng, his grandfather is really so good?" Wu Mingyi couldn't help but cut in, somewhat surprised.
The old man glanced at him and said, "that's nature! All the other old people in the village know about it
"But when I was a child, how did I hear that Lin Sheng's grandfather was killed by a little devil?" Wu asked curiously.
The old man glared and said, "Uncle tiger is fierce, but after all, he is flesh and blood. Where can he carry the guns of the little devil? At that time, it was Uncle tiger who killed a lot of little devils, so he got the wanted revenge of the little devils. "
"At that time, the ghost brigade went into the mountains to search. Uncle tiger was worried that the village people's hiding place would be found by the devil, so he ran out to lure the devil away. I didn't think that in the end, uncle tiger had the ability to resist the small devil's gun attack and died under the devil's gun. "
"Otherwise, when you are Lin Sheng's father, why did you grow up on the family food of the whole village? At that time, the whole village was in debt to Uncle tiger, so they preferred to leave a bite for Linsheng's father even if they were hungry. You can't let uncle tiger's offspring burn off. "
"It's just like you guys are now. All of you are looking at the disaster of Linsheng's family. They refuse to reach out and ask you to donate some money. It's just like killing you with a knife..."
Liu Shugong said, and then glared at Wu Mingyi.
Although Wu Mingyi is now the "richest man" in Shajing village, he donated 1000 yuan to Wu Linsheng's family, which is one of the highest in the village.
But the old man knew very well that a mere thousand yuan was not even a drop in the bucket for Wu Mingyi's fortune. It's just a drop in the bucket for the Wu Linsheng family.
Therefore, speaking of these things, he would be angry.
In the face of the criticism and satire of uncle Liu, Wu Mingyi was embarrassed and said, "I don't know about these old things. Besides, uncle Liu, you should also know that the amount of donation at that time did not mean that I could come as I wanted. "
"If I don't live in this village, I don't have to worry about anything. But I also want to live in the village every day. If I donate more, other people can't gossip behind my back that I have the money to show off and I love to show off. It will be difficult for me to be a man
It's very common in the village.
Wu Mingyi and several other people donated a thousand yuan, which attracted many people to murmur behind their backs. Of course, they should donate more. Our family is poor. If we have no money, we can only donate 180 yuan.
This is only 1000 yuan. If Wu Mingyi had donated 10000 yuan or more. Others who love face, I'm afraid, have to donate more, otherwise it will be hard to hear.
For example, when people from other villages meet and say that Wu Mingyi in your village has donated tens of thousands to Wu Linsheng's family, how much do you donate? Do you mean to donate a few hundred faces?
Although people far and near know that Wu Mingyi is the "richest man" in Shajing village, it is not easy to compare with him. But Wu Mingyi donated tens of thousands of yuan. How could you have thousands?
Otherwise, there are only one or two hundred or even dozens of them. What's it like to say it?
If Wu Mingyi, as the richest man in Shajing village, has only donated a few hundred and one thousand yuan, then other people think that the conditions are good, and it will be reasonable to donate three or two hundred yuan.
Those who have poor self-consciousness or don't care about their face are not so careful about donating dozens of yuan. It's not too shabby to say.
In the final analysis, Wu Mingyi is a benchmark.
If he donates more, other people have to compare their wealth with Wu Mingyi's, and then increase the donation to avoid making people laugh.
But if he really donates a lot of money, and other people donate more money for face sake, he will be unhappy with Wu Mingyi.
Such rules are common in villages and even in many other places.
The sixth uncle is not a person who doesn't know this. When he donated more than 3000 yuan by himself, he was always whispered in the back of the village.
On the surface, people are praising him for being rich, but in fact, they are obviously satirizing him for being "so tall". He loves to show off and is poor and fat.
It's just that his seniority is on display. Few people dare to chew their tongue in front of him and say those sour words.However, the old people are not blind and their ears are not recited. Naturally, they can see and hear some gossip. Although it is to pretend that nothing happened, but this heart head is not so taste.
