Chapter 47: Snitch



Qiao Xuejun nodded: "Normally it's disposable. But there are also many farmers who use it repeatedly."

This thing is neither cheap nor cheap. It is normal for farmers to be thrifty and use it repeatedly.

Kuang Qianli wondered: "How can this be used repeatedly?"

Qiao Xuejun said: "After the harvest, first spread the plastic film on the empty land, and then plant the seeds through the holes. It will be a bit troublesome."

But when sowing, the seeds are originally distributed regularly, in rows, with consistent spacing, so the holes poked are also in the same position.

Then you can sow the seeds according to the holes.

When Qiao Xuejun and others stayed indoors and planted potatoes in the shelter, the Qiao family was like ants on a hot pan, running around and not knowing what to do.

"Yaozu, didn't your two brothers go back to the mountain?" Old Mrs. Qiao was very anxious.

The two said they would find a way to help them get back the food that Qiao Xuejun had taken away, but how long has it been? There was no response at all. When asked what their plans were, they just said they had a way, but did not tell them the plan.

The food at home has really been eaten up, there is not even a grain of rice left, so we are counting on them to bring something back from Qiao Xuejun!

Qiao Yaozu knew nothing about it. His two brothers only told him that they would take action and promised him that they would bring back the food soon, but it has been more than a week and there is no news from these two people!

He followed his grandparents up the mountain to fetch water. The rebels stationed at the water source said they had not seen the two men and that it would be their turn to be on duty soon. If they saw them, they should be called back to duty immediately.

Qiao Yaozu went to the mountain to ask almost every day these days, but the answer was the same every day.

At first, he comforted his grandparents: "They told me before that they have their own plans and pace. Don't worry about them. Just wait for them to bring back the food. Don't worry."

But as time went on, Qiao Yaozu himself became anxious, not to mention his grandparents who were urging him all the time.

Qiao Yaozu was getting impatient: "Don't rush me. How would I know where they went? They didn't report it to me! I know we have no food! But there is nothing we can do! Go to the mountains to find some wild fruits. There are still some trees on a mountain to the west that have not been killed by the sun. Maybe there are some wild vegetables!"

Seeing their grandson getting angry, the two elders of the Qiao family stopped urging him and just sighed, "It's not that easy. The mountains with good conditions are guarded by the rebels. You can't go up the mountains recklessly, otherwise they will kill people!"

Qiao Yaozu could only say: "Wait, wait a little longer."

The two elders of the Qiao family wanted to listen to their grandson's request to wait, but the rice jar in the house could not wait any longer.

When the rice jar could no longer hold out for the next day, the two elders of the Qiao family secretly went up the mountain one morning without telling Qiao Yaozu.

They walked outside the rebel camp, still a little hesitant, and Mrs. Qiao asked Old Man Qiao: "Old man, do you think they interfered? There is no evidence... Can they believe that it was Girl Qiao who killed those two?"

Old Man Qiao snorted, "What proof do we need for this? As long as we say that that damn girl Qiao Xuejun has supplies, who wouldn't want them?"

Old Lady Qiao frowned and said, "Why not just forget it? If they find out that we are lying, we might get into trouble!"

Old Mrs. Qiao always felt unsafe. The two men never came back after they went out. They didn't care at first, but later they didn't hear from them, and they didn't return to the camp on the mountain.

I don’t know whether he fled or returned to his hometown.

They didn't think that it was Qiao Xuejun who harmed people. It was a joke. Even the three members of Old Lady Qiao's family couldn't do anything to those two strong men. They had to treat them with respect at ordinary times. What's more, it was Qiao Xuejun and that skinny carpenter girl. It must be a joke that he could harm those two. Who would believe it!

No one will believe it.

But the old man looked at the empty rice jar and came up with this idea.

He said that they could go to the camp on the mountain and lie that the two men had entered Qiao Xuejun's house and never came out again, and use the rebels' power to search the old house. Ostensibly they were searching for the two missing people, but in fact they were using them to search for the food.

Hearing old lady Qiao's repeated persuasion, the old man sneered, "Long hair but short knowledge! Why do you think Yaozu's two brothers came to help him? It's because they are eyeing the food that loses money! If this trick works on his two brothers, it will definitely work on the garrison troops on the mountain! What are you afraid of!"

When Old Lady Qiao thought about it, she realized that this was indeed the case.

So the two of them made up their minds and rushed to the camp: "Sir, sir, we have something to report!"

The rebel on duty in the camp looked at the two of them, frowned, and pointed at them with the stick in his hand: "Tell me, what's the matter? What do you want to report?"

Old Lady Qiao hardened her heart and said, "We know a little about the whereabouts of the two little brothers we came to ask about before!"

They have been coming every day these days to ask about the two people's situation, and everyone here already knows about it.

In fact, the rebels on duty didn't care. They were all unimportant people stationed here, and it wasn't strange for them to defect to other troops at any time. "Really? Isn't it enough to find them? It's time for them to take up duty."

Old Mrs. Qiao continued to lie stubbornly, "They went to my granddaughter's place to look for supplies and never came back!"

Hearing the key words, the officer on duty became interested: "Your granddaughter? Got supplies? What supplies?"

Not only the rebels on duty, but other rebels gathered around when they heard this.
