Xia Weian carried the boy down the mountain.

Song Qingyun packed his things and put them in a backpack, then went to look for Da Niu and the others.

"Mom, why are your clothes wet?" The big girl hurriedly stood up when she saw Song Qingyun.

"Mom just rescued a boy from the stream. Your dad took him home to take a bath and change clothes. Let's stay for another half an hour and then go back. If the child needs to see a doctor, your dad can't handle it alone." Song Qingyun said.

"Mom, how old is the child?" Erniu asked.

"He looks about seven or eight years old. We haven't asked for the specific details yet." Song Qingyun put the backpack on the ground.

"Come here, children. Mother has something to say."

Seven little girls gathered around immediately.

"Mom, tell me."

The children looked at Song Qingyun seriously.

"The boy said he was separated from his family and fell off a cliff and was washed here. He will stay in our house for one night. We will contact his family tomorrow to pick him up." Song Qingyun looked at the children.

"This boy has a birthmark on half his face, which is a bit scary. He's quite sensitive, so when we see him, we should treat him like a normal person. Can we do that?"

"Sure, Mom." The eldest girl was the first to agree. She had seen a person with half of his face covered with burn marks before, and she was not afraid.

Besides, birthmarks are something no one can do anything about, and it's already pitiful...

"I can do it too!" Xiaowu responded crisply.

The other children also agreed readily.

Song Qingyun had gentle eyes and eyebrows, and she knew that her children were all kind-hearted.

"Okay, you guys keep busy for a while, I'll go take a look at your father's trap."

"Mom, my dad just set up the trap a short time ago, it shouldn't be a big deal." Erniu said.

"Your father asked me to go and take a look, and I agreed. It's only a few steps away, so I might as well go and take a look." Song Qingyun smiled.

"Mom, this is called keeping your word!" said Sanniu.

"Sanniu, you used the right words." Song Qingyun waved to the children and followed the marks left by Xia Weian to look for the trap.

As for Xia Weian, he carried the boy on his back and walked quickly down the mountain.

There were a few men on the road who were going up the mountain to chop firewood. It was not the busy farming season, so some of them left work early or asked for leave, but the team leader turned a blind eye.

He Zhuangzi went up the mountain with a machete. His mother asked him to take advantage of the slack season to bring home more firewood, and she asked for leave for him today. He stayed on the kang and took an early nap, and just got up now.

He Zhuangzi was a chatterbox. When he saw Xia Weian carrying a child from a distance, he ran over with suspicion.

"Third brother, where did this child come from?"

The boy buried his face in Xia Weian's back.

"We just picked it up by the stream. I'll take it home and clean it up first." Xia Weian said. He sensed the boy's uneasiness.

"Third brother, this is a boy. Your family just happens to have no son, so you can keep the boy." He Zhuangzi suggested. He felt that he was helping Xia Weian solve the issue of incense and descendants.

"Don't talk nonsense. Who wouldn't be anxious if they lost their child?" Xia Weian frowned and said, "Zhuangzi, go chop wood quickly. It's getting late."

"Hey, look, third brother, I mean well, why don't you appreciate it?" He Zhuangzi muttered.

Xia Weian quickened his pace down the mountain. He walked fast. He Zhuangzi had come up the mountain with great difficulty, so he definitely couldn't follow him down.

Besides, He Zhuangzi didn't dare to go to Han Liehu's yard.

I could only walk up the mountain in disappointment.

He Zhuangzi walked a few steps and suddenly remembered something. Xia Weian went down the mountain by himself, so is his wife still on the mountain?

He Zhuangzi thought of Song Qingyun's beautiful little face and slender waist, and couldn't help laughing out loud.

"They say women are as fierce as wolves and tigers at the age of thirty. I guess the third brother's wife must be the same. The third brother is busy with other people's children, so... hehe."

He Zhuangzi quickened his pace.

Song Qingyun had found Xia Weian's trap and opened it carefully. As she expected, there were two pheasants inside.

The pheasant was quite plump, and it was obviously produced by Wolf Valley.

They brought back a lot of pheasants and wild ducks from Wolf Howling Valley yesterday, and threw the leftovers into the space, so when setting traps today, Xia Weian made two preparations. If they caught new prey, that would be the best, but if they didn't, they would still have something to eat.

Song Qingyun raised the corners of his lips, hooked up the two pheasants, tied them up with a rope made of leaves, and prepared to go back to find Da Niu and the others.

As soon as she turned around, she saw He Zhuangzi walking towards her with a machete and a malicious look on his face.

Song Qingyun frowned slightly and looked at He Zhuangzi warily.

"Oh, third brother's wife, you caught a pheasant. You are so lucky." He Zhuangzi rubbed his hands and moved forward.

"He Zhuangzi, is there something wrong?" Song Qingyun asked coldly.

"Haha, look at the third brother's wife, you should at least call me Brother Zhuangzi. We live in the same village and we are the closest people, right?" He Zhuangzi said as he strode towards Song Qingyun.

Song Qingyun turned around and ran. If she still couldn't see that He Zhuangzi had bad intentions at this point, her life would be in vain!

"Hey, girl, why are you running? Do you want to go inside so that no one can see you?" He Zhuangzi laughed and strode over to catch up.

Song Qingyun cursed He Zhuangzi a hundred and eighty times in his heart.

He Zhuangzi is a cunning and cunning man. He is an old bachelor in the village. He has been relying on his mother for support for many years. His family is poor and he is lazy and unwilling to work, so he cannot get married.

"Sister, your third child is destined to have no son, but I do. If you follow me, I will give you a son, and you can also settle down and make a living."

"If the Xia family knew you had a son, they would definitely send you back home with great fanfare."

“Don’t run!”

He Zhuangzi caught up with a wicked smile.

He Zhuangzi was about to catch up when he saw Song Qingyun running straight towards a big rock.

"Be careful, sister, don't get knocked down, brother is worried..." The voice behind He Zhuangzi suddenly stopped, because Song Qingyun suddenly disappeared.

It seemed like it crashed directly into the rock!

He Zhuangzi's legs were trembling, and the cold wind behind him was blowing, blowing into his bones again and again.

"That, sister, ah no, sister-in-law, third brother's wife, where are you, don't scare me...ah, don't scare me. I was wrong, I shouldn't have set my sights on you."

"You, come out."

He Zhuangzi said tremblingly. He walked to the stone, poked it carefully, and made sure it was an extremely hard stone.

Is there some mechanism?

No, it’s in the deep mountains and forests.

He Zhuangzi suddenly felt a pair of hands behind him pushing him hard, and his body uncontrollably crashed into the rock.

There was a loud bang.

"ah!"

He Zhuangzi screamed...

He was dizzy from the collision, and before he could react, he suddenly felt a pain in his leg. He screamed and fell to the ground...
