Chapter 11 Be careful!
Huang Xinran was cutting grass for the cows, but there was no specific location limit.
But these days, wherever grass can grow, it has been used to grow food. Even the fields have been used to grow soybeans or fruit trees.
Especially in Erlian Mountain, which is close to the big mountain, all the land is privately owned. All the products of privately owned land belong to individuals. If outsiders dare to touch the grass and trees on other people's private land, they will be scolded at best or even fight for revenge.
It is difficult to find weeds in the fields where crops are planted, and no grass or trees on the mountains where others keep their own grass cannot be moved. If you want to cut grass for cattle, you can only look for it in the farther mountains.
The place where Su Min was digging potatoes happened to be on the hillside, so the two of them happened to be on the same route.
Su Min chattered non-stop along the way, and she was very knowledgeable when she talked about recent events. She and Huang Xinran were of similar age, and both were young wives who married to Qianjin Village from the upper countryside. Huang Xinran and she were both pregnant at about the same time, and they were twins. The baby didn't have enough milk, so Su Min did a lot of breastfeeding. So the two of them were closer than others.
Later, when the children grew up and were weaned, Huang Xinran herself ignored them. Instead, Su Min would occasionally give Yaya and Maomao some food.
Huang Xinran has complicated feelings.
When they climbed halfway up the mountain, they each went about their business. One dug potatoes, the other cut grass for the cows. They both worked in unison until a gentle call woke Huang Xinran up from his work.
"Here, eat it!"
What Su Min handed over was a baked sweet potato that was slightly smaller than a fist.
Although the pitch-black roasted sweet potatoes didn't look good, they had both been busy for so long that the food they had eaten at noon had long since evaporated into sweat. When she saw the food, she couldn't help swallowing.
"No, you can eat it yourself."
"I still have some."
Su Min stuffed the roasted sweet potato into her hand without saying a word, and silently handed the water bottle to her.
Huang Xinran stared at the roasted sweet potato in silence for a long time before taking it. He picked up the water bottle and took a big sip before handing it back to the other party: "Thank you."
"Thank you for what? If anyone should thank you, it should be me. If you hadn't saved me, my baby wouldn't have been born safely."
Su Min calmly sat down on a rock nearby, fanned herself with a straw hat, and picked up another roasted sweet potato to eat.
The baked sweet potato in her hand was smaller in size, with the skin slightly burnt and even stained with a little black ash. Probably because she couldn't bear to eat it, she didn't even peel it, and stuffed the whole thing into her mouth, chewing and swallowing it with the skin.
Huang Xinran lowered her eyes and imitated her, eating the roasted sweet potatoes in silence.
The Baoer that Su Min was talking about was her son.
When Huang Xinran was pregnant with her twins, Lu Yunchen returned to the army. She was alone with her big belly and no one to rely on. At that time, Su Min was also pregnant, and the two pregnant women naturally got together.
Su Min accidentally fell and gave birth prematurely. It was Huang Xinran who found her unconscious and sent her home, and also called Aunt Liu from the village who was able to deliver babies.
Otherwise, who knows what will happen.
If she hadn't mentioned it, Huang Xinran would have almost forgotten about it. "You actually still remember it? Your family, not... I mean the Liu family, don't they all think that it was Jiang Yurou who saved you?"
Huang Xinran is really curious!
Perhaps she was influenced by the consciousness of the world in the book, but all the good things she did would eventually be attributed to the heroine Jiang Yurou.
The same thing happened when she saved Su Min.
"she?!"
Su Min snorted coldly: "You think of her as a good friend, a good sister, but you never know what she thinks! To tell you the truth, I fell and fainted because Jiang Yurou pushed me from behind."
"How could it be..."
Huang Xinran really didn't know about this inside story.
"Why not? I saw it with my own eyes, how could I wrongly accuse her?!"
Su Min couldn't help but raise her voice. At the end, she stared at her with suspicion, "Really? Haven't you woken up yet? Why, do you still think she is your good sister? Didn't you just scold her in the yard this morning?"
"How do you know?"
"I, I just happened to be passing by..."
Su Min felt a little annoyed. After all, eavesdropping on other people's conversations was indeed immoral. "Okay, I'll tell you the truth. I was originally sending your son Maomao back home, and I just happened to hear your conversation in the yard, so I didn't go in. So..."
No wonder!
"You said, was she the one who pushed you at the beginning?"
"Yes. She didn't notice it herself. I was checking the time at that time, and her face flashed by on the cover of my watch. The next moment, a sudden push came from behind me, and I hit my head hard on my stomach, and I fainted from the pain. It also caused my Baoer to be born prematurely, and his body has been very weak since childhood. Xinran, Jiang Yurou is definitely not as innocent as she appears. Especially the way she looked at your Maomao, it was the same as the way she stared at my stomach at that time, which was very wrong. Xinran, you should be more careful!"
These words made Huang Xinran's heart beat wildly.
Su Min had said the same thing to her in her previous life. Unfortunately, she believed in Jiang Yurou wholeheartedly at that time, as if she was possessed.
Eventually, Maomao disappeared and her whereabouts have been unknown since then.
By then, she had already left Qianjin Village. Later, she accidentally learned that not long after Maomao disappeared, Su Min seemed to have suddenly died of illness.
If it was her before, she would not connect these two things.
But at this moment, she had a strange intuition in her heart that Su Min's death and Maomao's disappearance might have some direct connection.
When Su Min saw Huang Xinran's face suddenly turned ugly, she thought that she was frightened and hurried to comfort her.
"Don't worry too much. Maybe I'm wrong. Anyway, you are the child's biological mother, so it's better for you to keep the child with you. I'm not sure if I can leave the child to someone else."
"I see. Thank you, Sumin."
Huang Xinran forced a smile and stood up. "I have almost finished cutting the grass for the cows. I will go back first."
After saying this, she started running quickly without waiting for Su Min to speak.
After tying up the hay, he carried a full bag of hay on his back and hurried home.
He hurried down the mountain and when he reached the river bank, he saw Yaya and Maomao catching fish by the beach. He immediately became furious!
"Yaya, Maomao! Get up here!"
She threw down the grass and ran forward, picking up one and throwing it onto the riverbank, "Who told you to go down to the river? Ah, why are you so disobedient? Don't you know that the riverbank is dangerous? Are you disobedient?!"
The more she talked, the angrier she became, and the angrier she became, the more she couldn't control her anger. Maomao's disappearance in her previous life had long been a source of worry for her.
Now that she is worrying about this matter, these two naughty kids are still not quiet.
It would be strange if she wasn't angry!
