Chapter 100 The Bandits Return to the Mountains



Zhao Xing'er asked with some doubt, "Can this stuff be used to make sausages?"

In the past, when pigs were slaughtered in the village, these things were either thrown away or simply cleaned and cooked for consumption.

She simply couldn't stand the taste and had never eaten it; it was always Old Man Liu and Liu Dayong who ate it.

She thought the sausages she bought in town tasted very good.

I never imagined that sausages were made from this stuff.

Liu Xiaoyun just smiled and nodded. Seeing that she didn't believe her, she called out to Jiang Yimian, "Yimian, do you know that these things can be used to make sausages?"

Jiang Yimian glanced at the contents of the basin and simply smiled in response, "Aunt Xing'er, these pig intestines can be used to make sausages."

I originally thought it would be difficult to get these people to accept eating this stuff, but I didn't expect there to be some experts.

With Jiang Yimian's words, Zhao Xing'er was still somewhat hesitant, but she was no longer as resistant as before. She just watched silently as Liu Xiaoyun evenly sprinkled the flour in the basin onto the intestines.

Jiang Yimian was about to go help when she was chased away.

Liu Xiaoyun quickly said, "Go away, this stuff doesn't taste good. You just took a shower, don't get involved."

Zhao Xing'er quickly smiled and said, "That's right, go have fun. We're here, you don't need to help us."

Jiang Yimian felt somewhat helpless, thinking that she had just finished taking a bath and then had to deal with the wild boar, so the bath would probably be a waste of time. She could only agree.

Her gaze fell on Lu Cijian; she had some questions for him.

Unfortunately, this guy was too popular in the small depression, and now he was surrounded by Ono and the other kids asking him questions.

She just sat there bored, staring blankly at the little rabbits in the rabbit enclosure.

Recently, several adult rabbits gave birth to a litter of baby rabbits, making the rabbit pen lively.

Fortunately, they strictly controlled the number of rabbits, preventing them from becoming as rampant as they had at the beginning.

Just as I was relaxing, someone else sat on the low stool next to me.

Jiang Yimian glanced at him, and seeing that Xiao Ye was teaching Xiao Nuan'er and Daya to read, she said seriously, "Thank you."

She knew that the two wild boars must have been deliberately driven to the low-lying area by the other party, just so that they could have more food to eat during the winter.

Lu Cijian stiffened, then pretended not to know and said, "I was just casually teaching Xiao Ye and the others to read. It's no trouble at all. You don't need to be so polite."

Jiang Yimian found it somewhat amusing, looked at the person sitting upright beside her, and said again, "I was talking about wild boars. You deliberately drove them here, didn't you?"

She didn't believe the other side couldn't handle those two wild boars.

Lu Cijian was taken aback, not expecting it to be seen through so easily.

He did indeed deliberately drive the wild boars there.

Two wild boars are enough for the people in the small depression to have a good winter.

These days he often comes to Xiaowadi for meals, and the food is always very good. No matter which restaurant he goes to, they always treat him to their best. He actually feels a little embarrassed.

Fortunately, we recently discovered traces of wild boars in the forest, so we thought of bringing two wild boars over as a way of repaying the families for their care.

With his lie exposed, Lu Cijian no longer tried to hide it, saying only, "It's already autumn, and many animals have gone into hibernation. When winter comes, there will be even less prey in the forest. You can keep these two wild boars so you can get through the winter comfortably."

Jiang Yimian found this strange, and after a while, she looked at the boy beside her and said, "Aren't you planning to spend the winter with us?"

The boy's pupils flickered slightly, and the corners of his lips curved into a smile as he looked at Jiang Yimian. His voice was cool, but it seemed to hide a hint of expectation, "You want me to spend the winter with you?"

The boy was already handsome, but now with a smile on his face, he was even more alluring, especially the red beauty mark under his eye, which was particularly striking.

Jiang Yimian was a little dazed, her heart beating faster as she looked into those clear, expectant eyes.

She hurriedly looked away, thinking to herself, "Who says only beautiful women are bewitching? Men are too."

She suppressed the slight panic in her heart and casually said, "You can spend the winter wherever you want. What does it have to do with me? We can save some food if you're not here."

Lu Cijian paused, concealing the disappointment in his eyes before saying softly, "That's true."

After saying that, she seemed to remember something and said, "I won't be on the mountain for the next few days, but you can continue to go to Tangchi."

That place is secluded, and few people would go there easily.

Jiang Yimian originally wanted to ask where the other person was going, but what came out was, "I'm not going. Who knows if you'll go and peep at me."

Lu Cijian's ears turned red instantly, and the memories he had tried so hard to forget came flooding back.

Jiang Yimian regretted saying the wrong thing and was about to explain when she suddenly noticed the boy's slightly red ear tips. She immediately coughed awkwardly and said irritably, "Hey, what are you thinking about? Don't think about it."

Upon hearing this, Lu Cijian was also stunned. He immediately smiled and chuckled, "I'm thinking of you, why can't I think of you too?"

Jiang Yimian regretted it so much she wanted to slap herself. What was she saying? Could she possibly control what others thought?

She coughed lightly to suppress the strange feeling in her heart before changing the subject, saying fiercely, "Why did you drive the wild boar over here, but then you disappeared? It was so dangerous. Grandpa and the others were no match for that wild boar."

Lu Cijian was amused by the little girl's puffed-up cheeks and casually said, "Isn't it you I have here?"

How could those two wild boars be a match for Jiang Yimian?

Even if he didn't come, Jiang Yimian could handle it and would definitely not let the wild boar hurt anyone.

After he finished speaking, seeing that Jiang Yimian was still angry and ignoring his flattery, he said seriously, "I met a few people on the way to the small depression."

He had just driven the wild boar into the small depression when he was discovered. Fearing that the people would follow him into the depression, he quickly lured them away.

But those people followed him closely, clearly mistaking him for someone else.

Seeing that he couldn't shake them off, he had no choice but to kill the three men and throw the corpses off the cliff before leaving.

The delay caused the wild boar to arrive at the small depression first, frightening everyone.

Jiang Yimian immediately became alert and quickly asked, "Who is it?"

Lu Cijian recalled the clothes of the group and the machetes they were holding before saying, "They are probably bandits from the foot of the mountain. They seem to be looking for someone and have mistaken me for someone else, which is why they keep chasing me."

Jiang Yimian frowned.

It seems that this is the first time the people from the mountain stronghold have come up the mountain since the murder six months ago, so it should be unrelated to them. I just don't know what exactly happened in the stronghold.

Seeing her worry, Lu Cijian finally spoke up: "The small depression is well-hidden and will not be easily discovered. I have also cleared out the traces of those people. Don't worry, the bandits won't be able to find this place."

Jiang Yimian nodded, intending to visit the vicinity of the mountain stronghold in a few days and gather some information.

After understanding what had happened, she looked at Lu Cijian again and asked curiously, "Are you planning to come down the mountain instead of spending the winter here?"
