At this time, some wild fruits on the mountain ripened, and Yu Yao found a few wild raspberries in the valley. "Sister-in-law Meihua, are those wild raspberries?"
Su Meihua looked at it and laughed, "It really is! It wasn't here when I came in previous years. You're incredibly lucky. I always find good things when I'm with you."
The purplish-black fruits hang on the branches, each one a delightful sight.
Yu Yao picked one and tasted it, her eyes lighting up. "Sister-in-law, this wild berry is so sweet!"
Su Meihua picked a large leaf from the side, wrapped the wild berries she had picked inside, tied it with straw, and put it in a basket.
As they walked back, they searched for any other fruit.
According to Sister Meihua, in addition to wild jujubes, you might also encounter wild bananas, amla fruits, and wild guavas this season.
Just as she finished speaking, Yu Yao saw a wild banana tree, but unfortunately, all the fruit on it had been eaten by birds.
Suddenly, Su Meihua stopped, made a shushing gesture, and pointed to a spot not far away. "Isn't that Company Commander Song Yiming over there? The woman next to him is Yu Feng's sister-in-law, right? Her name is Wu something."
"Wu Shufen," Yu Yao said, looking at Song Yiming and Wu Shufen.
"Yes, yes, Wu Shufen." Su Meihua looked at the two of them. "Wouldn't Wu Shufen have taken a liking to Company Commander Song?"
Everyone in the old family compound knew that Battalion Commander Wu's sister wanted to find a man in the army.
At first, several women in the old family compound thought Wu Shufen was a good match and had a battalion commander brother, so they introduced her to several outstanding young men.
In the end, Wu Shufen rejected them all for various reasons. Later, the other women realized that she thought the young man she introduced was too low-ranking and wanted to find a military officer who was good-looking, capable, and had a promising future.
You should have told me what kind of girl you were looking for earlier. When others ask, you just say anything is fine and the women can decide. But after they help you find someone, you complain about everything, making the women who helped introduce you feel like they're in the wrong.
After this happened a few times, no one was willing to introduce Wu Shufen to any potential partners anymore.
"She has good taste, actually taking a liking to Company Commander Song." Su Meihua wasn't very optimistic. Her sister-in-law, Yu Feng, was no simple character, and quite ruthless. "Yu Yao, just you wait and see, Company Commander Song won't take a liking to her."
Before Yu Yao could say anything, she saw Wu Shufen give something to Song Yiming. Song Yiming refused it and said something. Then she saw Wu Shufen covering her face and running towards them crying.
"Hey, quick, hide!" Su Meihua tried to pull Yu Yao away, but it was too late.
Wu Shufen already felt ashamed of being rejected, and now that Yu Yao had seen her, she felt even worse. Without looking back, she ran into the mountains.
"You can't go that way, don't go into the mountains." Su Meihua saw the direction she was running and quickly stopped her, "That area is all deep forest, don't go in there."
Wu Shufen wouldn't listen to anything anyone said and kept her head down as she ran inside.
Su Meihua put down her basket and was about to chase after her when she saw Wu Shufen running frantically out of the woods.
When Wu Shufen saw Yu Yao, she ran towards them.
Yu Yao's gaze fell behind Wu Shufen, and her expression changed. "Sister-in-law Meihua, run! There are wolves!"
After saying that, he grabbed Su Meihua, who hadn't even reacted yet, and ran away.
Seeing them run, Wu Shufen gritted her teeth and sped up, knowing she was about to be left behind.
She can't die; she hasn't become an officer's wife yet, and she doesn't want to die.
Her gaze fell on Yu Yao; she could only blame her bad luck.
Wu Shufen gritted her teeth and tripped Yu Yao with her leg.
Yu Yao, who was holding Su Meihua's hand, tripped over this and stumbled, falling to the ground.
Su Meihua screamed in fright.
The gray wolf behind her had already pounced on Yu Yao...
