After chatting for a few words, Jiang Yan and the other person continued to go into the mountains. As they were leaving, the child named Shitou suddenly called them.
"Sister Jiang Yan, are you going into the mountains to collect herbs?"
Jiang Yan nodded, "Yes."
Shitou trotted over and said, "My father used to be a hunter in the village. I have been following him in the mountains since I was a child. Sister, if you want to collect any herbs, I can take you there."
Jiang Yan smiled gently, "Thank you for your kindness, but the mountains are too dangerous. You should stay in the village. My husband is very familiar with this place and he will protect me."
"Then be careful."
After looking at Lu Yunsheng standing beside him, Shitou didn't insist any more. He told Jiang Yan to be careful, then turned around and ran back to Li Tiezhu.
Seeing Shitou coming back, Li Tiezhu pulled him aside and asked, "Shitou, what did you say to them? Don't forget me if something good happens."
Shitou shook his head. "They wanted to collect herbs. I wanted to take them into the mountains, but the military wife said it was dangerous in the mountains and wouldn't let me follow them."
Li Tiezhu was very surprised, but he felt relieved after hearing the second half of the sentence, "It's a good thing you didn't go with them. What if you really encountered danger?"
Shitou said confidently, "It won't be dangerous. That sister's husband is very powerful."
Looking at the lip movements of the two children in the distance, Lu Yunsheng suddenly said, "This child is quite interesting."
Jiang Yan also looked over, and thinking of Shitou's reaction when she exposed him before, she smiled and nodded, "He has a good personality and is quite frank."
Lu Yunsheng shook his head. It was not just about being frank. Compared to the tall and thin boy next to him, this kid named Shitou was the truly smart one.
Seeing Lu Yunsheng shaking his head, Jiang Yan was curious, "Am I wrong?"
"right."
"You are right."
Lu Yunsheng smiled and pulled Jiang Yan forward. Jiang Yan hurriedly followed him and asked, "Lu Yunsheng, you are just trying to fool me. Tell me why you are shaking your head?"
"This stone is really frank. When we caught the spy before, I asked them if I was their target. The boy next to him tried to argue, but he admitted that he wanted to steal the food in my backpack."
"hurry up."
Lu Yunsheng had no choice but to explain.
"This kid is honest, but he also knows how to judge the situation and has a very accurate intuition. Do you know what he said to the kid next to him?"
"What?"
"He said very confidently that it would be safe to follow us into the mountains."
Jiang Yan was puzzled. "What's the problem? He knows you're a soldier, so it must be safe for him to follow you into the mountains."
Lu Yunsheng smiled and explained, "You can't understand it that way. The reason you trust me so much is because you understand me."
"But this was the first time I met them, and those two kids grew up in the village. They knew very well how dangerous the mountains were. And when the kid next to him heard Shitou say he wanted to follow him into the mountains, his expression was clearly disapproving."
"So even soldiers won't easily take risks in the mountains."
"But the stone is very sure. This is what makes it different from ordinary people."
Jiang Yan was even more confused. "Yes, Shitou wants to help us. Doesn't this show that he is kind?"
Seeing Jiang Yan's bewildered look, Lu Yunsheng tapped her nose lightly, "Have you forgotten the purpose of their going up the mountain?"
"Steal my food."
Jiang Yan answered without hesitation, and Lu Yunsheng nodded.
“A person who decides to steal and takes action for it, no matter what the reason, is not bad, but at least he has nothing to do with kindness.
But when you expose him, he chooses to admit it frankly.
Use sincerity to gain his favor, so that you will sympathize with him or even forgive his motives for stealing.
If good is white and bad is black, then he is the gray in the middle.”
