Hearing this, Feng Yijia didn't know what to say for a long time.
My heart felt warm and sour, and my eyes were filled with mist.
Seeing no response, Meng Sheng continued in a low voice, “Really, don’t do such a dangerous thing.
I raided the lair of economic criminals. They had a lot of money.
Even if you do nothing and lie down, you will never use it up even if you die.
Just accept it and consider it as spending money for me!"
Feng Yijia felt both moved and aggrieved by these words.
It's really nice of me to move this ally.
I was also reborn, so why does it seem like I was born by a stepmother compared to others?
Although what she said to Meng Sheng in the county town was a bit exaggerated, it was not outrageous.
The mountains around here are really poor. Although there are still a few places where unowned things are hidden, the total amount is not much.
There are many kinds of naturally grown medicinal herbs, but they require a lot of labor to dig, collect and prepare, which is much more tiring than directly digging out the herbs in someone's nest.
Feng Yijia's mind was full of thoughts, and his hands were moving non-stop. He scooped up water to rinse his hair, quickly wrapped it in a towel and tied it behind his head. He glanced at the bundle of money, and his heart was struggling.
This money came easily, and Meng Sheng asked me to spend it for him, so it would be a waste not to take it.
But forget it. What’s the point of taking other people’s things for free?
Feng Yijia raised his wet face and firmly refused: "Take the money back. I'm not as rich as you, but I'm not short of money."
Then, thinking of people worrying about him, he explained, "Catching poisonous creatures like snakes and scorpions isn't just about making money. It's mainly about leaving the villagers with the impression that this business is not easy to make money in and that I'm not someone to be messed with.
This is to prevent others from getting jealous and affecting my peaceful life in the village in the future.
Don't worry, I've been floating around for decades and have finally come back to life. I value my life very much and won't do anything I'm not sure of."
Meng Sheng continued to ask, "You really don't want it? You don't want the money or the gold?"
Feng Yijia gritted his teeth and refused: "I really don't want it! Take it back!"
Meng Sheng was half focused on talking to someone, and half focused on the beautiful face that was made even more hazy by the firelight.
His eyes were as dark as the night outside. Seeing that the man was determined not to accept it, he picked up the bag and said helplessly, "This is the first time I see someone giving you money and you don't want it.
Okay, I'll take it back.
But if you walk by the river often, you will get your feet wet. Those who drown in the river are all good swimmers. Grasping these two words is an accidental birth.
You have to promise me that this is just the first time you catch them, and you won't touch these things again.
As for the villagers, you don't care what they think. If you can live here, then live here. If you really can't, then just move out."
Aunt Xu left, and in came Meng Sheng, who sincerely cared about her.
But Feng Yijia, who lacked care since childhood, had no way to deal with such a person. Thinking that there were many valuable things in the mountains anyway, he nodded in agreement.
"Okay, I'll try not to catch these things from now on, except for the ones that run into me."
Meng Sheng barely achieved half of his goal, and he didn't dare to stay here any longer. The woman's tender cheeks, watery almond eyes, messy wet hair at her temples, and wet clothes on the front all made him feel tense and hot in his heart.
He felt that this woman had not been a ghost for decades, but had definitely been a vixen for decades.
His Adam's apple rolled, and after licking his dry lips, Meng Sheng awkwardly said goodbye while holding his bag: "Then you are busy, I'm going back!"
After saying this, he walked away with his back bent, and quickly climbed over the wall back to his own yard.
The darkness of night obscured all abnormalities, and Feng Yijia didn't notice anything was wrong.
He also didn't notice that when the man was riding on the wall of the next courtyard, he looked back at him, with a terrifying desire in his eyes.
After seeing that the person had disappeared, he continued to scoop water to take a bath and sleep.
Meng Sheng jumped back to his yard and walked around the toilet in the backyard to the front yard. He went into the kitchen, got a bucket of cold water and poured it over his head.
But the effect is not very good.
The heat on my body subsided a little, but the flame in my heart grew stronger and stronger.
It looks like an old house on fire.
He returned to his room dejectedly, changed his clothes and lay on the bed, but he remained upright and refused to lower his head.
Images of Feng Yijia flashed through my mind uncontrollably.
It kept him awake all night.
The next day, Feng Yijia really stopped catching snakes and insects, and quietly picked some herbs outside the mountain and brought them home.
In the afternoon, when the sun was not so strong, I went to my own field to weed.
Meng Sheng stayed in the village for a day. Seeing that no one was doing anything dangerous, he felt relieved. Then he took a ride on an ox cart that was going out to the county town.
Now that the dry goods shops in the county have channels for purchasing and shipping goods, he has to quickly get the business license and other certificates.
It would be best to find an honest and reliable person to watch over the yard and receive the goods with Shen Baojia.
Another thing is that now that I have some money that can withstand verification, I have to buy a small house.
In the future, I will go to the city to study and live. Not only will it be quiet and comfortable, but I can also cook for myself and improve my meals.
So that I won’t feel sad every time I see his protruding bones.
Well, I have to find out how the affairs of Meng Chengliang and others are developing now?
Do you want him to add fuel to the fire?
Try to get these things done within three to five days.
The corn in the field was almost ripe, and he had to arrange everything and go home to pick the corn.
It would be better if they had a few strong laborers at home, but Feng Yi was the only one at her home, and her injuries probably hadn't healed yet. The thought of her doing such heavy work made him feel anxious, so he had to find a way to help secretly.
Feng Yijia had no idea that others were worried about her. She was busy with her own things. It was not until she eavesdropped at dinner the next night that she found out that Meng Sheng had gone to the county town again, but she didn't care.
He continued to collect herbs and farm despite the strange looks from the villagers.
