Chapter 807 Uncle Killed Someone
Chapter 807 Uncle Killed Someone
When Zhou Jiafu's uncle heard that he could earn one yuan a day from the cabbages in his private plot, he almost went crazy with joy. Isn't this a pie in the sky?
Zhou Jiafu has been there so many times and earned twenty or thirty yuan.
Their family was extremely poor and they didn't even have the money to marry a wife, so of course they agreed without hesitation.
“Jiafu came back and told me that after he sold all the vegetables today, a few hooligans in the city wanted to ask him for money.
You two should go together this time. You should look around more. There is no problem selling cabbages at the car factory. Don't argue with them after you take the money. Just come back quickly."
After Zhou's father left, Uncle Zhou Jiafu was so excited that he was spinning around.
I don’t even have a decent coat in this cold winter. I won’t say anything more when I make money.
First buy a coat, then a quilt. After that, you can consider getting married.
Anyway, as an elder, I can’t marry too much later than Zhou Jiafu, right? Otherwise, my son will be younger than Zhou Jiafu’s son, which is really outrageous.”
At twelve o'clock in the night, Zhou Jiafu arrived. The two of them each took a bamboo basket and filled their private plot with cabbage.
Before leaving, Uncle Zhou Jiafu thought of the gangsters in the city, so he put the sickle at home into the bamboo basket.
"Jiafu, do the houses where the car factory workers live really have heating? Can they just wear an undershirt at home on this day?"
"Uncle, I've said this so many times. It's true. You don't even need to wear a sweatshirt. But who would be naked at home?"
"This worker is really good. I wonder if the car factory will continue to recruit."
"Uncle, don't even think about it. I heard that the treatment of workers in the automobile factory is the best in the country.
Even if everyone in the city wants to get in, we have no hope in this lifetime.
If I can earn some money from selling cabbage and marry a wife, that would be good enough.”
Zhou Jiafu had been walking for many days and was already familiar with the route.
The two of them chatted as they walked. They had both been doing farm work for most of their lives, so they didn't feel tired at all.
Zhou Jiafu thought of the group of thugs from yesterday, so he walked a few more steps and changed the direction to enter the city.
"I say, young comrade, you finally got it. Carrying hundreds of kilograms of vegetables every time is never enough to share.
This is great, you can earn more money and we can have fresh food to eat.
Next time, remember to call a few more people and bring more food. Don’t worry, this is a car factory, and no one needs your few dollars.”
It was also the first time for Zhou Jiafu’s uncle to come to the city of Sijiu. He watched as 200 kilograms of cabbage were snatched away by a group of middle-aged women in just a few minutes.
Looking at the stack of money in my hand again, I suddenly felt something was unreal.
Zhou Jiafu mentioned on the way here that the big meat buns in the workers' restaurant next to the vegetable market are very delicious.
After counting the money, he found that it was indeed two yuan. He was immediately delighted and waved his hand.
"Jiafu, let's go. Uncle will take you to eat some big meat buns."
Zhou Jiafu hesitated for a long time, and finally spoke.
"Uncle, let's go back quickly. These meat buns are too expensive. Besides..."
"You're just a spoiler. If you don't want to eat, then don't eat. I know we agreed to split the bill 70-30.
Uncle won’t take advantage of you. I sold this cabbage for two yuan, and this is your sixty cents.”
As he said this, he took out sixty cents and handed it to Zhou Jiafu.
Zhou Jiafu wanted to say something, but in the end, he didn't say anything.
After dividing the money, Uncle Zhou Jiafu did not mention eating meat buns anymore, and the two of them prepared to go home side by side. But they were no longer as talkative as when they came.
As soon as the uncle and nephew walked out of Sijiu City, they were surrounded by a group of thugs.
"Boy, I thought you didn't dare to come today. I didn't expect that you not only came, but also brought someone with you. OK, you have guts.
Just hand over the money and lie on the ground and let us brothers kick you a few times.
In the future, give us half of the money from selling vegetables, and this matter will be over."
I just experienced the feeling of making money for the first time today, how could I obediently give the money to these thugs?
"Why?"
The gangster smiled disdainfully, pointed at the group of people standing behind him and said.
"Why? Because I have many brothers."
Uncle Zhou Jiafu and his nephew looked at the dozen people who were about to surround them with grim expressions.
Seeing that the two of them didn't say anything, the gangster seemed a little impatient.
"You won't give it to me? Then don't blame me and my brothers for being ruthless. Come on."
Two fists are no match for four hands. Zhou Jiafu and his nephew were just ordinary farmers and they were instantly at a disadvantage.
Even though Uncle Zhou Jiafu was beaten black and blue, he still held the money tightly.
This is his capital for marrying a wife in the future, how could he let it go easily?
Finally, the gangsters rushed over and pinned him to the ground. They pried open his fingers one by one and finally robbed him of his money.
"I'll fight with you."
He picked up the sickle from the bamboo basket and rushed towards the gangster who was counting money.
The knife was stabbed with hatred and there was no way to hold back. By the time everyone reacted, the sickle was already halfway embedded in the gangster's neck.
Blood spurted everywhere, and everyone at the scene was stunned for a moment.
When the hooligans usually fight, at most they get bloody heads. They have never seen such a scene, so they immediately scatter, fearing that the other party will go crazy and stab them again.
Uncle Zhou Jiafu was also a little scared. After being stunned for a few seconds, he bent down and took back the money that was stained with blood with trembling hands, then ran home quickly.
The uncle and nephew were silent on the way home. When they arrived at the production team, Uncle Zhou Jiafu finally spoke.
"Jiafu, let's just pretend this never happened. Those hooligans definitely don't know where we are from.
As long as you don't tell them, they won't be able to find us.
Let's wait a few days before talking about selling vegetables. Remember what uncle said, don't tell anyone about this, not even your dad. Do you understand?"
Zhou Jiafu nodded, and the uncle and nephew went back to their respective homes.
When Zhou Jiafu returned home, he felt a little nauseous and couldn't drink a single sip of the cornmeal porridge in front of him.
"Jiafu, Erya has agreed to the betrothal gift of ten yuan, and our family can take it out now.
But the first month of the lunar calendar is coming soon, and it is unlucky to get married in the first month of the lunar calendar, so I am thinking of setting the wedding date for the beginning of spring. What do you think?"
Zhou Jiafu's mind was filled with the image of the gangster falling to the ground with blood spurting from his neck. When he heard his father's words, he just nodded mechanically.
"Did your vegetable sales go smoothly today? Did you run into those hooligans from last time? Did your uncle give you any money?"
Seeing that Zhou Jiafu didn't say anything, he slammed the table angrily.
"I didn't give you any money? Can you still deny what we agreed to? Even if we are brothers, we still have to settle accounts.
I'll go find him. How can he be a uncle if he doesn't even give money for his nephew's wedding?"
Seeing this, Zhou Jiafu grabbed his father, fearing that his father would end up like the gangster.
"Dad, something happened. My uncle killed someone."
