Don't worry, don't worry. How could she not be anxious? Old Mrs. Qiao couldn't help but said, "No, I have to go into the old house and see what's going on!"
Qiao Yaozu grabbed Old Lady Qiao and said, "Grandma, didn't I tell you? I've been to the old house before. They have bamboo spurs and high walls. We can't get in. They even propped up the big iron door with wooden boards. You can't get in with such a thick door."
Old Mrs. Qiao shouted, "Of course she did. She moved so many things out of the warehouse, so she must have kept it very safe to prevent us from taking them!"
If she has so many things now, she will also defend herself, she will defend herself more strictly than Qiao Xuejun!
Old Lady Qiao said, "I can't wait any longer. Go ask your two brothers if they can make it. Don't delay it day by day. If you delay it for a day, she will have to eat up a day's worth of food! By the time she has eaten all the food, there will be no share for us!"
Qiao Yaozu had been a man without a clear idea in the first place. At first he listened to his two brothers and thought that he just needed to wait for Qiao Xuejun to come out. Now he listened to Old Lady Qiao and thought that it would not be good to delay too long as it would let Qiao Xuejun take advantage.
So he went to find his two brothers.
"Brother, my sister still hasn't come out today. Does she lack water? Is there something wrong with our method?"
The bearded man was sleeping on the floor in the coolest room on the first floor. He frowned and yawned when he heard this. He turned his back to Qiao Yaozu and said, "Just wait. The water supply has been cut off. How can she not be short of water? Besides, didn't you say she brought another woman with her? How much water do the two of them need to drink in a day?"
Another man with glasses was also woken up and asked impatiently: "Why? Do you think our idea is useless?"
Qiao Yaozu quickly explained: "No, our family is really running out of food. If I don't get some food from my sister, we won't be able to eat tomorrow."
The bearded man finally opened his eyes, but he was still irritated and angry: "Alright, alright, I get it, you are disgusted with us brothers for eating too much! Don't you think about it, it was you who insisted on looking for us to come here in the first place, and didn't your grandma also say that you welcome us and ask us to help? Now that we are here, you have all these good and bad words to say!"
Qiao Yaozu shrank back at what he said.
The man with glasses also stood up and hurriedly pulled the bearded man: "Brother, don't be angry. Yaozu can't solve the problem of running out of food, so he is naturally anxious. Let's go up the mountain to take a look. Maybe they have caught that woman."
The bearded man nodded. "Yes, it's the fourth day. Maybe they have gone up the mountain to get water and are being held in the camp. But the communication is bad right now, so they didn't notify us. Let's go check it out."
Qiao Yaozu felt a glimmer of hope, and after the sun set, he followed the bearded man and the bespectacled man up the mountain.
When we arrived at the rebel camp by the river, we asked the rebels and they said, "We didn't catch them, we didn't see them, come back tomorrow."
There is no trace of Qiao Xuejun at all.
The bearded man and the bespectacled man didn't ask any more questions and took Qiao Yaozu down the mountain: "No, no, we'll ask again tomorrow. Tomorrow is the fifth day. No matter what happens, she should come out eventually!"
Qiao Yaozu was skeptical, "Really?"
The man with glasses immediately said, "It's all because of your grandma. She went to the door and yelled before we even arrived, scaring the person. He definitely won't come out!"
The bearded man immediately agreed with an angry look on his face: "Yes, this kind of thing should be kept secret and acted in secret. You guys just ran to her door and told her. How could she not be scared? If she was scared, she would definitely not come out now."
Qiao Yaozu frowned: "This..."
However, when they first got home and their grandmother mentioned this incident, they didn't have the same attitude! They both said that it was a good scare.
The man with glasses directly accused: "It's all your grandma's fault! If she hadn't insisted on shouting at the girl's door, we would have caught her by now!"
If they insist on saying so, there is nothing we can do. After all, grandma did do such a thing, and Qiao Xuejun might have been frightened, so she couldn't bear to say it.
Qiao Yaozu had no choice but to agree: "Let's go up the mountain and ask again tomorrow."
The next day, the three of them went up the mountain early and asked Qiao Xuejun whether he had gone up the mountain to fetch water that night.
I got the same answer as the day before: "No, come back tomorrow and check, maybe it will appear tomorrow."
But the Qiao family really had nothing to eat.
The bearded man and the glasses man came up with a plan and said to Qiao Yaozu, "Tell your grandma to go and call us again later and tell her that we've left and it's a good deal for her. Do you understand?"
Qiao Yaozu thought about it and felt that it was indeed possible.
After all, Qiao Xuejun used to go out every day. Although he didn't know what she went out for, he saw her returning home from the mountains a few mornings.
But in the past few days, she hadn't come out for a single day, and he had been keeping an eye on her. So after thinking about it, it was still the same reason as yesterday, Qiao Xuejun was frightened by her grandmother, and no matter how dehydrated she was, she didn't dare to come out.
·
Qiao Xuejun and her three teammates spent a whole day cutting all the potato seeds and planting them. Everyone took turns, so it wasn't too hard.
In two days, all 10 acres of land were planted.
Kuang Qianli stood by the door and swung his arms: "To be honest, this is the first time I do this kind of work."
The young carpenter said, “I did that when I was a kid.”
Wang Juanfeng said, "I've done that, too." Then she looked at Kuang Qianli, "You're the only one from the city."
Kuang Qianli chuckled and looked at the 10 acres of land: "It's quite a sense of accomplishment. What will these 10 acres of land look like if they grow?"
