Several grown men looked at the three couples in front of them with great interest.
Xiaojie feeds Sangsang, Lin Yi feeds monkey Xiaopeng, and Ningxia feeds monkey Xiaoyou. The scene is extremely interesting.
The two monkeys were eating happily when another guest came to the yard. He was discovered by everyone when he walked outside the fence.
"It's you! The bad old monkey who beat people!" Sangsang stood up indignantly and pointed at the old monkey outside to accuse him.
"Gugugugu!" The old monkey outside the door was obviously furious, and started yelling at everyone inside the fence. It was obvious that he was not saying anything nice.
"Oh, this is my family coming to visit."
Monkey Xiaopeng didn't take the other person seriously at all and still sat obediently beside Lin Yi eating fish.
Monkey Xiaoyou stood up from Ningxia's side, holding a large piece of fish in his hand, and whimpered a few words towards the outside of the fence.
The old monkey outside grinned with a fierce look in his eyes. He jumped into the fence in an instant, snatched the fish from the little monkey's hand and threw it into his mouth.
Before everyone could recover from its hooligan behavior, it had already grabbed Monkey Friend and threw him out heavily.
The little monkey did a three-dimensional flip and landed not far away, stabilizing his body. The hair behind his ears all stood up.
The old monkey muttered a few more times and turned away.
Monkey Xiaoyou walked to Lin Yi, pulled Monkey Xiaopeng onto his back, and followed with a few leaps.
Seeing that the old monkey seemed very angry, the little monkey stopped making noise and lay obediently on his brother's back and followed him away.
"Monkey friend! Monkey friend!" Sangsang stood up and tried to chase him, but Ningxia shouted him back.
She reluctantly returned to Xiaojie and played with her fingers out of boredom.
The men didn't take this little episode seriously, but Ningxia saw it clearly.
The old monkey's glance just now was full of ferocity and vigilance. If it were just that, it would be fine, but Ningxia clearly saw the strong fear in the depths of its round eyes, which was very different from the first time they met.
Ningxia guessed that something must have happened to this group of monkeys some time ago, otherwise how could the leader of such a large and intelligent tribe show fear towards them.
Ningxia will never forget the shock she felt when she first encountered the swarm of monkeys that covered the sky and the sun.
No longer thinking about this group of 'old friends', Ningxia stood up and planned to clean up the mess in the yard with Li Gang and others.
"Okay, you've been tired all day, take a break. We can finish cleaning this little thing in no time."
Ningxia heard this and went to the bathroom alone without any hesitation. The smell of charcoal smoke on her body made her feel uncomfortable.
They naturally rested at the sentry post that night. They vacated a room for Ningxia and her three siblings, and the remaining seven or eight men were all squeezed into one room. Ningxia couldn't bear to let Xiaojie come and sleep with them, but the boy refused with red ears.
"Is the temperature in this room very comfortable?" The three siblings lay again in this room protected by the new wall material.
It's over ten degrees outside, but it's twenty-one or twenty-two degrees inside.
Lin Yi pulled the quilt over, ignoring Sang Sang's attempts to stop him, and placed a corner over her belly button. "Mm, very comfortable."
"Just wait, I will save enough money before the cold month! I will buy a few square meters and decorate our bedroom! When the cold month comes, it won't be so hard to endure!"
Ningxia's tone of infinite hope for the future infected Lin Yi, and he couldn't help but look forward to it too, "Sister, I'll go with you to pick herbs! Let's go hunting in the mountains together! Uncle Lei and the others praised my archery skills! We will definitely save enough money!"
The brother and sister fell asleep with smiles on their faces. They slept at the sentry post, where the temperature was just right and there was another room next door filled with coalition forces. It was a rare occasion for Ningxia to sleep soundly.
"Then we're leaving! Ningxia, be careful when you take them back! We'll see each other after the cold month is over!"
At daybreak, Li Gang and his group had already packed up and were ready to leave.
Ningxia was not woken up until they were about to leave. She got out of bed with her hair in a mess, and she didn't have time to tidy it up.
"Squad leader, you guys are the ones who should be careful along the way. Have you loaded the buns in the kitchen?"
Li Gang smiled and nodded.
Le Zheng will be back soon, so Lao Chen will also return to the team and follow Li Gang and others back to the military camp.
They were all familiar friends, and the next meeting would only be in a few months. Ningxia glanced at those faces without feeling any sadness of parting.
After a brief noise, the yard returned to silence again.
"Why don't you sleep a little longer? It's okay anyway." Pingzi looked at Ningxia and yawned.
"No," Ningxia shook her head. "I have to pack up and go home. I have a lot of things to do at home!"
As for Sangsang, she only realized Xiaojie had left after she had already mounted Maomao. The air pressure around her was so low that Lin Yi didn't dare get close, for fear that it would turn cloudy and rainy, which would really make his head hurt.
"Let's go back and dismantle the beds that the squad leader and the others slept in, clean them, and put on new sheets and quilts. You can move into the children's room to sleep tonight."
Lin Yi nodded and decided to take the movable light bulb to the children's room tonight. His sister's rabbit fur vest would be finished soon!
"Do you want to continue being angry or follow us to the river?" Ningxia asked Sangsang, who was unhappy with her arms crossed.
The three of them had already arrived home. Ningxia and Lin Yi were quick and efficient and had packed up the laundry in just ten minutes.
Sangsang pouted, "We're going together!" Her tone was still a little unhappy, but Ningxia knew it wasn't directed at her, so she didn't take it to heart. But she also didn't bother to pay attention to her. She was just mad at Xiaojie for not telling her when he left.
"Are you back?" Mu Yuanqing happened to be washing clothes on the other side of the river. From a distance, he saw the three siblings carrying large and small bags to the river.
"Yeah, I'm back." Ningxia responded with a smile.
"It's just right. Xixi is going up the mountain tomorrow. She said you guys passed by a large patch of Angelica dahurica and didn't pick any. Do you want to go?"
Ningxia's eyes lit up, "Yes! What time tomorrow?"
Mu Yuanqing smiled. "Why are you in such a hurry? Don't cook this afternoon. Come to my house for dinner and we can discuss it slowly. I caught a pheasant this morning. It's not as good as your cooking, but the soup I made is still delicious."
Ningxia thought that she had not visited Mu Yuanqing's family since they moved in, so she nodded and agreed: "Okay, we will come after we finish washing the clothes."
The two parties agreed on a time. Mu Yuanqing had almost finished washing the clothes in his hands and was packing up to leave.
Liu Ximu came to pick up Mu Yuanqing holding Qingtian.
"Sunny day! Sunny day!" Sangsang shouted towards the other side from a distance.
Mu Yuanqing smiled, raised Qingtian's hand and waved, "Hey! Sister Sangsang, I'm here! Do you want to come over and play with me?"
Sangsang cast a questioning look at Ningxia.
"Bring her over later. She already went out for a day yesterday. Don't let her become wild."
Mu Yuanqing smiled and stopped trying to persuade him: "Okay, bring the two children over this afternoon. I'll be leaving first."
