Zhou Gou, who had thought something had happened, breathed a sigh of relief and showed no displeasure at their decision to sell pork. Then he frowned and asked, "Are you planning to go with just the two of you?"
Jiang Ci and Zhou Mingli remained silent, tacitly agreeing.
“You two are really bold. You have no idea how chaotic it is at night. If you run into those people who are after money and women but not your lives, you two will be in trouble.” Zhou Gou pointed at the two of them, turned around and went back into the house. His voice came from afar, “I’ll go with you. Wait a moment.”
Jiang Ci and Zhou Mingli exchanged a glance and couldn't help but smile at the same time.
Before long, Zhou Gou changed his clothes and came out pushing his bicycle.
Zhou Huai was following behind him.
"Lock the door and go back to sleep, understand?" Zhou Gou instructed Zhou Huai.
Zhou Huai nodded seriously. Standing at the door, she said to Jiang Ci and Zhou Mingli, "Aunt Jiang, Uncle Zhou, please be careful on your way."
The concern in her eyes as she looked at Jiang Ci was almost impossible to conceal.
Zhou Gou noticed her closeness to Jiang Ci, felt a pang of jealousy, sighed, and said nothing. He swapped bicycles with Zhou Mingli, letting him carry his wife while he rode their bicycles carrying pork. The three of them sped off towards the edge of the village.
On the way, Zhou Gou asked them how they killed the wild boar, and Jiang Ci told him what had happened by the pond that night.
Zhou Gou remained silent for a long time, and his gaze towards Jiang Ci became somewhat strange.
"You also know how to use a bow and arrow?"
Jiang Ci smiled shyly and said modestly, "No, I'll learn with practice."
Zhou Gou laughed out loud, "Then you're quite talented."
"Do you know how to use a gun?"
Jiang Ci said, "How would I know how to use a gun? I've never even touched one."
“When I was in the army, I also organized people to go hunting wild boars in the mountains. There were so many wild boars there that they would often come down the mountain to eat the crops of the production team. Killing wild boars with a hunting rifle was the fastest way.”
Zhou Gou thought of his life in the army, and his speech became somewhat lighthearted.
The three of them walked towards the stone quarry.
Before setting off, Zhou Mingli and his group checked the time; it was a little past 2 a.m.
Based on the route we took last time, it would probably be 3 a.m. by now.
Before they even reached the quarry, they saw a truck parked on the side of the road.
There were also many people riding bicycles next to the truck.
Zhou Mingli glanced at it.
I spotted an acquaintance.
The person he went to the stone quarry to find was inside.
"Little tune!"
Zhou Mingli shouted directly.
Xiao Qu turned her head and saw Zhou Mingli. "Hey! You're here to exchange things again!"
Zhou Mingli and Zhou Gou quickly arrived at the truck on their bicycles. Zhou Mingli looked the truck over and asked, "It's almost dawn, what are you doing here?"
Hearing this, Xiao Qu looked dejected. "It's because the truck broke down. It won't start no matter what we do. The driver doesn't understand why either. It's full of ingredients for the kitchen. It's almost dawn, and the canteen hasn't even started preparing the meals yet. My father-in-law heard that the truck broke down, so he asked me to come and see what happened."
