Seeing that his father was going up the mountain, Li Mingxi naturally wanted to follow him. Unexpectedly, Niu Cuihua was unwilling to follow. As the old saying goes, Li Mingxi is at the critical moment of reviewing now. Wouldn't it delay his studies if he went up the mountain?
Although Niu Cuihua kept trying to persuade them, she couldn't stop Li Aiguo from continuing to persuade them, and Li Mingxi was beside him making solemn promises!
The final result is obvious, Li Mingxi won!
When climbing the mountain, everyone was surprised to see that Li Aiguo had brought his daughter with him!
You know, they thought Li Aiguo was going to take them to the mountains, so they didn't bring their children. But they didn't expect that he would take his daughter with him!
But everyone is out, so it would be a bit inappropriate to go back and call for help now!
In this way, Li Mingxi followed a group of uncles and grandfathers up the mountain!
This was really a novel experience for Li Mingxi. She had thought that only the women in the brigade loved gossip!
But who could have known that this group of men also loved to gossip? Li Mingxi heard a lot of gossip along the way, talking about other people's private affairs!
Li Mingxi had never even heard of many of those things, and now hearing them talk about them like this, it was like he had broadened his horizons!
As we were talking, I don't know how the topic got to us going up the mountain to hunt.
I only heard an uncle sigh and say, "Hey, if it weren't for the patriotic proposal today, I wouldn't be able to come out. My wife won't let me out no matter what!"
"That's right. It's the same with my family. They say the mountains are dangerous. What if something happens? What will they do? But look at us. How is our mountain dangerous?"
As he said this, he pointed to the rolling hills not far away.
"Besides, even if there is any danger, a group of us grown men can't beat a beast!"
Another person interrupted, "My family's wife wasn't worried about my safety. She told me to bring back more food. She'll have enough meat for the whole winter!"
"Yes, that's right. Fortunately, Aiguo came back and took us hunting. Otherwise, it would be really hard to have meat at home!"
When Li Aiguo heard this, he just laughed.
"Okay, stop talking. There should be something further up. Everyone, be careful!"
Li Dashu spoke first, "Don't worry, we will definitely be careful!"
After saying this, he turned to look at Li Mingxi, "Xiaoxi, can you do it? Otherwise, follow behind uncle!"
"Yes, Xiaoxi, follow behind us, but don't rush forward. We will protect you!"
Although she knew that everyone really cared about her, Li Mingxi was not the kind of person who would hold others back. Besides, she was planning to take a good look at this place to see if there was any treasure!
Therefore, she refused directly.
"No need, uncle, I will pay attention, don't be distracted by me!"
Li Dashu wanted to say something but was interrupted by Li Aiguo.
"That's right, Dashu, you don't have to worry about this child. If a child who grew up in the mountains can't even protect herself, there's no need for her to come up the mountain!"
"That's fine, but, Xiaoxi, you must stay close to us!"
Li Mingxi nodded, "Don't worry, uncle, I know, I will definitely protect myself well, so don't worry about me!"
Next, the group walked forward cautiously. Before they reached the top of the mountain, they had harvested five or six rabbits.
Everyone was very happy when they got something to hunt.
"I told her that if she followed Aiguo, she would have meat to eat, but my wife didn't believe me. Look, we haven't even reached the top of the mountain yet, and we've already caught so much. When we get back, my wife and kids will be so happy!"
"That's right, my Dazhu has been clamoring for meat for half a month now. Now, when I get home tonight, I'll let him have some meat!"
For a moment, everyone was smiling, imagining eating meat after returning home.
Li Mingxi looked at the happy expressions on the faces of this group of uncles when they talked about eating meat, and the corners of his mouth twitched!
However, she could understand that it was not easy to eat meat these days. Now that everyone had prepared so many foods, wouldn't they be happy?
At this moment, someone in the crowd suddenly asked.
"Hey, is that true about the treasure on the mountain you mentioned?"
When Li Aiguo heard this, he was confused. He hadn't been home for a long time, so he had no idea what was happening in the team.
However, Li Dashu, who was standing by, frowned when he heard this.
"Erkui, what do you mean? Could it be that you are interested in the treasure? The captain has already said that this matter has nothing to do with us and that we are not allowed to talk nonsense. What do you mean by saying this today?"
Erkui looked at Li Dashu with a bewildered expression and said nervously, "No, no, I'm just asking!"
Hearing him say this, Li Dashu immediately raised his voice and asked, "Ask?"
Li Erkui originally had some little thoughts in his mind, but when he saw Li Dashu looking at him seriously, all his little thoughts were scared away.
"No, no, no, Dashu, don't get me wrong. I just want to ask, with my courage, can I have that idea?"
Li Dashu still didn't believe him and kept a serious expression.
The people around couldn't stand it anymore and quickly started to persuade them.
"Dashu, don't be angry. We grew up together, don't we know what kind of person Erkui is? Anyone would want to take the treasure, but Erkui definitely wouldn't. If his father knew he had such thoughts, he would definitely beat him to death!"
"That's right, Dashu. There's no one here, so it's okay for Erkui to ask. I was thinking, is there really a treasure? But those experts have checked it so many times, why do those people still insist on it? I really don't know if they are crazy!"
Someone looked at Li Mingxi on the side and asked in confusion.
"Hey, Xiaoxi, did those people really come looking for treasure last time? Didn't you help the police arrest them? Do you know the details?"
Li Mingxi shook his head and lied seriously.
"I don't know either. I'm just showing the way. But, those people must be crazy. I didn't see anything there!"
Then she raised another question.
"Besides, a lot of people from our team went up the mountain that day, but didn't they see anything?"
Li Dashu agreed, "That's right, didn't you guys go up the mountain too? There's nothing there. I really don't know what you're thinking!"
"Besides, if there really is any treasure, it belongs to the country. What are you thinking?"
After hearing what Li Dashu said, everyone who was originally full of interest immediately lost interest!
Li Aiguo was a little confused when he heard them talking about the treasure. He had been away for a long time this time and he really didn't know much about what happened at home. But after listening to what his good friend said just now, why did he feel that this matter was not that simple?
Moreover, there is something about my daughter involved here?
It seems that his daughter helped the police to catch the man, but why didn't they tell me?
This is totally unlike his mother's style!
