Yu Jiao had learned astronomical observation from her grandfather, but she didn't know how to explain this ethereal thing to Yu Qiaoshan. Even if she did, it would be very troublesome. However, it was indeed dangerous to go hunting in the mountains on rainy days, so she kindly reminded him, "Uncle, why don't you go to the mountains the day after tomorrow? Although the weather has been fine these two days, everything will turn around. If it really rains, it will be really dangerous."
Yu Qiaoshan chuckled, "Meng girl, you've never been to the mountains, have you? I was also very scared the first time I went up the mountain. Don't worry, Xiangzi, who came to hunt with me, you should call him Uncle Zhou. He goes up the mountain all year round and is very experienced with the climate there. Since he came to hunt with me at this time, he must have picked a good day. Just follow us tomorrow."
Yu Jiaozhi had no intention of saying more. After all, Yu Qiaoshan was an experienced hunter. How could he change his mind just because of her words? She could only say, "Then uncle, you should go to bed early."
After Yu Jiao left, Zhang prepared some water for Yu Qiaoshan to wash his feet and asked, "Do you really want to take Meng Yu Jiao to the back mountain? What if she runs away secretly? That girl is very capable. If she really follows you out and runs away, my father will not forgive you!"
Yu Qiaoshan said as he soaked his feet, "That shouldn't be the case, right? She said she wanted to go to the mountain to find some herbs. I think she is much more at peace now and wants to live a stable life with the second wife. Maybe she can cure the fifth brother's body in the future. Then the second brother and his wife will finally have their hardship relieved."
"You're dreaming. I see that she is acting very independently now. She doesn't even take the old man seriously. I don't know if our small temple can accommodate this big Buddha." Zhang has been watching Meng Yujiao coldly for the past few days. It is clear that she is someone who is unwilling to suffer any loss.
Yu Qiaoshan wiped his feet, stood up and took the water for washing feet. "Fifth brother has a dull personality. If she is more assertive, the second house will suffer less in the future. I think she knows what is good for her. Don't learn from the third house. Be kind to others on a daily basis. They will remember your kindness in the future."
After that, Yu Qiaoshan carried the wooden basin to the courtyard to pour water for washing feet. Zhang muttered to herself, "Why do I need her to think well of me? Anyway, I won't ask her for help in the future."
After pouring the water for washing feet, Yu Qiaoshan returned to the house. Just then he heard this and smiled helplessly, "You are a person who is always good to others. Do more good deeds and you will have good results in the future."
Yu Jiao returned to her room. Yu Fuling was already lying on the bed. Seeing her coming back, she sat up from the bed and asked, "Did your uncle agree to take you to the back mountain?"
Yu Jiao nodded, took off her clothes and got on the bed.
Yu Fuling climbed up from the bed and suddenly started to pack her things. "I'll go with you. I haven't been to the mountains to collect herbs for a while. If we don't go now, we'll have to harvest wheat."
"You want to go too?" Yu Jiao was worried about what would happen if it rained tomorrow and really went up the mountain. Unexpectedly, Yu Fuling also wanted to join in the fun.
Yu Fuling stuffed a thick gown into her bag and glanced at Yu Jiao. "Uncle Zhou's son is also going up the mountain. I have to keep an eye on you to prevent you from doing anything embarrassing outside."
Yu Jiao was speechless. She turned sideways, covered herself with the quilt and closed her eyes.
Yu Fuling walked to the head of Yu Jiao's bed and said, "The more you don't want me to go, the more I will go with you. Don't try to do anything bad behind my brother's back!"
Yu Jiao said in a muffled voice, "If you want to go, go ahead. I'm not stopping you."
Yu Fuling placed the small bundle next to her pillow before getting on the bed, snatching some quilts from Yu Jiao, and blowing out the candle on the bedside table.
