Zheng Xianghong was afraid that he would cry for help and admit the crime of stealing the sheep, so that he could at least survive.
In a small room next to the woodshed door, Zheng Xianghong was talking to a woman who was guarding Chu Miaohong.
"I have a good relationship with her, so I'll persuade her. It's so cold, how about you come back tomorrow morning?"
The woman on guard left with a smile. She couldn't stay in such a cold day.
Chu Miaohong's heart slowly sank.
Zheng Xianghong looked at the sky. It was already past four in the afternoon. She would leave at five and let the woman freeze to death.
A figure appeared at the entrance of Chunyang Village.
Zhang Hongcheng came to Chunyang Village with some snacks in his hand, under the pretext of looking for Wu Jianlei.
"A sheep is missing?"
Zhang Hongcheng pretended to be surprised.
Inside the educated youth camp, Fang Chunmiao was making porridge with the red sausage brought by Zhang Hongcheng, while Wu Jianlei was sighing and talking about a sheep being lost in the village.
"Is it confirmed that the blood in the forest is sheep's blood?"
Fang Chunmiao curled her lips.
"That little bit of blood wasn't real, but Duan Xinman insisted on it. The villagers also wanted Chu Miaohong to pay compensation, but where would she get the money?"
"We searched everywhere but couldn't find any trace of the sheep."
Zhang Hongcheng pretended to be in deep thought and thought about it.
"After the heavy snow, the river will freeze. Could that sheep have run into the territory of our Fifth Company?"
"Across the river from your village is a forest belonging to our Fifth Company. The snow there is shallow, and the sheep can eat grass just by digging."
Wu Jianlei and Fang Chunmiao immediately looked at each other in surprise.
It's really possible!
Fang Chunmiao didn't bother to cook anymore. She took Wu Jianlei and a few enthusiastic educated youth and went out with flashlights to look for sheep.
Zheng Xianghong just came in from outside. Seeing several people flashing flashlights and trying to leave, she suddenly became a little panicked.
She was afraid that Fang Chunmiao and the others would go to see Chu Miaohong.
Fang Chunmiao and the others ignored Zheng Xianghong and walked straight to the river. Only then did Zheng Xianghong breathe a sigh of relief.
The riverside and the brigade headquarters are in opposite directions, so she doesn't have to worry about Fang Chunmiao and the others discovering Chu Miaohong's situation.
Zhang Hongcheng looked at the cup of hot tea that Wu Jianlei stuffed into his hand and narrowed his eyes slightly.
The wind outside was quite strong, blowing the snow foam on the roof everywhere.
Zhang Hongcheng, who used the excuse of going to the toilet, came to the door of the woodshed next to the team headquarters with a teacup in his hand.
According to the records in the book, he reached out and touched the door frame of the woodshed, and sure enough, he found a spare key.
Chu Miaohong was extremely weak at this time.
She vaguely heard the sound of the door lock, and she thought it was Zheng Xianghong who came back again, because she remembered that the woman deliberately took away the key to the woodshed.
The last ray of afterglow in the sky had not yet faded, and she was so cold and hungry that she was confused that she only saw a figure walking in from the door.
The visitor closed the door casually and shut the leaky window tightly, and the woodshed suddenly became pitch black.
A trace of fear suddenly surged into Chu Miaohong's heart.
Woo woo woo woo.
She used her last bit of strength to try to push the damn rough cloth out with her tongue.
But the next second, a scent of heat and tea lingered at the tip of her nose.
Someone carefully pulled the rough cloth out of her mouth.
The warm tea slowly poured into her mouth. Chu Miaohong swallowed it greedily, unwilling to give up her last chance to survive.
Who is this person?
In the darkness, the man untied the rope on her wrists, spread out a large bundle of straw in the corner and gently covered himself with it.
A small piece of cooked bacon was stuffed into her mouth.
Before Chu Miaohong could react, the man had already stood up and left, closing the door, locking it and putting the key away, all in one go.
This figure seems a little familiar?
But she had no time to think and quickly swallowed and chewed the bacon to soothe her empty stomach.
Half an hour later.
Just as she was about to fall asleep hugging the straw, several flashlights lit up outside, and the incredulous voice of Captain Cao Dagang was heard.
"Did you really find it?"
"It's true. That ewe with the black swirl actually ran to the woods across the river."
"Captain, can you let Comrade Chu Miaohong go back?"
"Okay, okay, where are the keys?"
"Wang Eryin's family, where did you go just now?"
Chu Miaohong laughed coldly in her heart. In her two lifetimes, she had only hatred and indifference towards Chunyang Village.
But after being reborn, she realized that in their hearts, she was no better than a sheep.
In my previous life, Cao Dagang found me when I returned to China and wanted to invest in Chunyang Village. I even treated them to a meal.
I am so ridiculous...
Zhang Hongcheng did not participate too much in the plot. In the book, it was his sister Zhang Yumin who went to the woodshed to feed Chu Miaohong hot water and food.
It is speculated that the sheep running across the river was also his sister. He basically replaced Zhang Yumin's role according to the original plot.
When Zhang Hongcheng saw Fang Chunmiao and others happily leading the sheep back to the village, he immediately said goodbye and left.
The moment he walked out of Chunyang Village, he couldn't help but look back at the whole Chunyang Village.
The miserable and helpless figure in the woodshed just now came to mind again.
Only after personally experiencing the suffering of others did he finally understand why Chu Miaohong, who was reborn in the book, hated the villagers of Chunyang Village so much.
If it were him, the retribution Chunyang Village would definitely not be as simple as the loss of some property.
Zhang Hongcheng sighed inwardly.
The heroine survived this disaster, but Chunyang Village will soon be in trouble.
My biggest motivation for coming to save Chu Miaohong this time was that I didn't want the plot to deviate.
Because as long as Chu Miaohong is alive, he will be able to get a great opportunity related to the heroine in the near future.
After finishing the work, Zhang Hongcheng felt much more relieved.
It turns out that doing good things can really make you happy.
Zhang Hongcheng hummed a little tune as he walked towards the other side of the river.
Soon after, he will be able to fleece Chu Miaohong again, and he will feel at ease!
