In fact, it was Cheng Qiao who asked Li Huan to agree to let Wang Qin go to collect grass for pigs. You know, collecting grass for pigs is the most free job. As long as she is free, wouldn't it be possible for others to take advantage of her
In the blink of an eye, it was the end of June and the beginning of July. The school had already been on vacation, and the weather started to get hot, especially during the day. Cheng Qiao felt short of breath every day with her big belly. There were fans and air conditioners in the room, but she couldn't use them.
"Li Huan, why don't we go buy a fan? I feel so hot."
Li Huan's face immediately turned worried. Buying a fan was not a big deal, but there was no electricity. There was no electricity in their small mountain village, so it would be useless to buy it.
Cheng Qiao regretted it as soon as she finished speaking. What's the point of buying a fan if they have to light kerosene lamps at night? Fortunately, she still has some space, so she can just hide in it at night. But it's hard for Li Huan, who has to stay alone in the empty room.
"Tomorrow I will go up the mountain with my master to collect herbs."
"Wife, your belly is so big, I am worried."
"It's okay. Master said that my pulse is very strong and powerful, and walking more is good for the birth of a child. Besides, it's cool in the mountains, and the air is good in places with many trees."
Ye Huan had no choice as he was too busy. He could only let Ye Jun take Cheng Qiao into the mountains and let Li Le follow as well, in case anything happened there had to be someone to tip off.
Li Le was happy as long as he followed Cheng Qiao. He happily carried a small backpack and carefully took some dry food and water. He picked up a wooden stick as thick as his forearm and kept sweeping it on the ground, for fear that there were snakes on the ground.
The three of them slowly climbed to the middle of the mountain. As usual, Cheng Qiao went to check the traps set by Li Huan. There were four traps in total, three of which were empty, and one contained two wild rabbits whose bodies were pierced by sharp bamboos.
"I'll go get it."
"Lele, be careful, climb down along the pit, and check if the rope is tied tightly."
Li Le checked carefully and found no problem, so he slowly climbed down, pulled out the two wild rabbits, threw them into his backpack, and then climbed up carefully.
"Second sister-in-law, Uncle Ye, we are having spicy rabbit meat tonight."
Both of them smiled and nodded. They covered the surface of the trap and marked it. The three of them went up again. Li Le was jumping in front, but suddenly she stopped moving.
"Why don't you leave?"
"Second sister-in-law, there are so many wild peaches in front of us. I'll go pick them."
Cheng Qiao saw that it was a wild kiwi fruit, so she picked one, peeled it and took a bite. It tasted sour and sweet and it was really good.
"Master, let's pick some kiwis first. They are high in vitamin C and good for the body."
Of course Ye Jun agreed, and the three of them put down their backpacks and started picking.
"Sister, you are here too. Oh my, you are so pitiful for going up the mountain with such a big belly."
A weird voice came over, and Cheng Qiao knew who it was without turning around.
"My second sister-in-law is not pitiful. It's you who are pitiful. Your biological father is dead, and your stepfather doesn't want you anymore."
Li Le spat and cursed without thinking.
Wang Qin's face turned pale. She was indeed sent down by Cheng Liguo. This damn girl always hits people in the face. When you are left alone, I will show you how I will deal with you.
"Cheng Qiao, is this kiwi sweet?"
"You can't eat it yourself."
Wang Qin quickly picked one and peeled the skin carefully like Cheng Qiao did. Cheng Qiao saw a piece of clothes behind a tree five meters away and a smile appeared on her face.
"Master, Lele, I'm a little tired, let's go home."
Ye Jun thought Cheng Qiao didn't like seeing Wang Qin, so he nodded quickly, put on his backpack and left. Li Le gave Wang Qin a fierce look. If it weren't for this woman, she could have picked more fruits.
Li Le had already picked half a basket of kiwis. He sprinted a few steps and walked beside Cheng Qiao. Cheng Qiao deliberately lagged behind him two steps to feel the wind direction.
Then he slowly walked to the upwind side, and the strong anesthetic powder in his hand drifted away with the wind, some of it directly onto the kiwi fruit in Wang Qin's hand.
Wang Qin was eating happily when she suddenly felt her eyelids heavy. She thought something was wrong. Could this fruit be poisonous? But Cheng Qiao had also eaten it just now, so how come she was fine
He quickly threw down the kiwi in his hand, then picked up the kettle to rinse his mouth, but before he could lift the kettle, he fell down limply.
Chen Dazhu had been following Wang Qin. When he saw Wang Qin following Cheng Qiao up the mountain, he always felt that there was a chance. Sure enough, as soon as Cheng Qiao left, Wang Qin fell down.
He hurriedly walked out from behind the tree. You know, although Chen Dazhu looks honest on the outside, he is actually a real pervert, vicious and greedy.
On the way down the mountain, Cheng Qiao met Aunt Wang and several other village women. They were digging wild vegetables and fruits in the mountains together. When they saw Cheng Qiao, they shouted:
"Cheng Qiao, what good stuff did you dig up today?"
"Aunt Wang, there's nothing good to eat, so I just dug some yams and cooked them at home."
"Yam, this is a good thing. Cheng Qiao is lucky."
"Aunt Wang, this is so sweet."
Li Le also took out a few wild kiwis from his backpack and handed them to Aunt Wang and the others. Aunt Wang was thirsty, so when she saw the kiwis, she quickly took them, broke them open and started eating.
"Oh, why is this fruit so sweet? Where did Lele pick it from?"
“Aunt Wang, just follow this mountain road up, and when you see the Big Ox Rock, turn around and you’ll see it.”
The Big Ox Stone is a name given by the villagers themselves, and it also serves to warn the villagers not to cross the stone. If they go up, they will invade the territory of wild beasts, and it is hard to say who will eat whom then.
“Do we have to pass the Bull Rock?”
Aunt Wang asked with some concern.
"No need. Just turn past the Big Bull Rock and you'll see a row of wild fruit trees. The crooked tree at the front has the sweetest fruit. The fruit on the other trees is not sweet."
"Got it. Thank you Lele. I'll go right away."
"Aunt Wang, please go quickly. Zhiqing Wang at the Zhiqing point is also picking fruit."
Aunt Wang's heart trembled. This bad woman was also picking fruits. Besides, there was only one fruit. She must not let her pick all of it. She quickly tightened the basket on her back and climbed up quickly.
The other aunts were not willing to be left behind. If they couldn't finish eating the fruits, they could take them to the county town and sell them secretly. As long as they were careful, they could always make a few dollars.
Cheng Qiao smiled. She had not dispersed much anesthetic powder today, and if the wind blew some of it away, Wang Qin would definitely not fall into a coma, but she would definitely feel weak all over.
Cheng Qiao slowed down her pace, picking up some firewood here and digging some wild vegetables there. Ye Jun narrowed his eyes slightly, wondering what this little girl was doing again.
Li Le was even more willing to help Cheng Qiao. He was busy bundling firewood and cleaning the wild vegetable roots and putting them into the backpack. Finally, Cheng Qiao heard the voice she wanted to hear.
