Chapter 81 Hunting in the Mountains
"What are you still doing here? Go find your uncle Wei."
"oh oh."
Bai Teng rushed out as if he had just woken up from a dream.
Bai's mother cried with tears in her eyes.
"My poor Jiaojiao! How did you become like this?"
While peeing cat urine, he helped Bai Jiao to the bed.
Shen Qingzhi originally wanted to step forward to help, but was violently pushed away by Bai's mother. She fell to the ground with a thump. Her coccyx hurt so much that her little face wrinkled in pain.
Bai's mother only had Bai Jiao in her eyes. She turned her eyes to her daughter-in-law who had fallen to the ground, her eyes full of coldness:
"It might be you, the unlucky star, who brought this disaster upon yourself."
Being suddenly slammed by her mother-in-law, Shen Qingzhi was speechless and explained anxiously:
"No...I..."
"What's not? Otherwise, how could Jiaojiao become like this for no reason? Marrying you into the Bai family has never had any good things happen to you."
Before he could finish his words, he was interrupted by Bai's mother with disgust in her eyes.
Shen Qingzhi's face turned pale. She felt so aggrieved that she couldn't express it in words, but she didn't dare to talk back. She could only silently get up from the ground, gently rub her aching coccyx with her hands, and look worriedly at Bai Jiao who was lying on the bed.
During this period, Jiaojiao treated her very well, and when her mother-in-law scolded her, Jiaojiao was the only one who spoke for her.
Despite the harsh words from her mother-in-law, Shen Qingzhi couldn't stop worrying about Bai Jiao.
Bai's mother was worried about her daughter and was too lazy to argue with Shen Qingzhi. She even stopped going to work and just stayed by her side, letting the other children in the family go to work. If a family member didn't go, they would be punished.
Qi Man got up from bed at eight o'clock in the morning. Qi Erya and Qi Dong went to work early, while Bai Xiaoan was busy in the yard, feeding the chickens and ducks.
Seeing Qi Man get up, a smile appeared on her little face, and even her tone became much more cheerful than before.
"Manman, get up! There's black bean porridge and meat buns in the kitchen. Go wash up and I'll bring them out for you."
After saying that, he put down the dustpan in his hand, quickly went into the kitchen, and brought out the warm black bean porridge and steamed buns.
The fried meat buns are golden on both sides, which looks very nice, and the combination of the two is extremely appetizing.
Qi Man simply washed up, drank black bean porridge with a spoon in her right hand, and ate a meat bun with her left hand, her clear eyes fell on Bai Xiaoan.
Bai Xiaoan was wearing a pink long-sleeved shirt and dark blue trousers. She had two pigtails on her head. The scar on her face had faded a lot, leaving only a few shallow marks. Her skin was still a little dark, but whiter than before, and she looked more energetic than when they first met.
Although her dress was not fashionable, it was better than before. She no longer wore loose, ill-fitting and tattered clothes.
Qi Man's slightly frowned brows relaxed, a smile appeared on her face, and she praised generously:
"It looks so good in this outfit."
Bai Xiaoan smiled shyly:
"Manman, I feel really embarrassed when you say that."
The blouses that Manman bought for her were brightly colored and novel in style. Although she liked them, they were too revealing.
I was afraid that if I wore it out, I would be laughed at and talked about by others, which would bring negative emotions to Manman.
While thinking about this, Bai Xiaoan fed the chickens in the chicken coop with a small dustpan beside him.
Qi Man stood up and looked at the few chickens in the chicken coop. The game that Xie Yunshu had hunted earlier had been almost consumed.
After thinking for a second, he said:
"I'll go into the mountains to check on Grandpa later. I'll have to trouble Sister Xiao An to keep an eye on Grandpa."
Every time I go into the mountains, I kill people. I never take a good walk around and add some food to the chicken coop.
When Bai Xiaoan heard that Qi Man was going to go into the mountains, he quickly put down the dustpan in his hand and tried to dissuade her:
"No! How can you go into the mountains alone? What if something happens? No! If you dare to go into the mountains alone, I will go and complain to Grandpa."
The deep mountains are too dangerous. Except for Comrade Xie, who dares to go into the mountains alone, even the men have to go in groups. Most of the villagers are picking wild vegetables at the foot of the mountain, or in shallow water, not to mention that Qi Man is alone.
Qi Man swallowed the last mouthful of meat, pouted her lips, hugged Bai Xiaoan's arms with both hands, and spoke softly and coquettishly:
"Sister Xiao An, please help me keep it a secret from Grandpa. I know you are the best. I will just take a look at the shallows and definitely not go deep into the mountains, okay?"
Qi Man is really delicate and soft, with a soft and sticky voice. Once she starts to act coquettishly, who can control herself?
Moreover, Bai Xiaoan relied on Qi Man wholeheartedly. Now that he was treated like this, his heart softened and he glanced at Qi Man hesitantly:
"You said to stay in the shallows. You must not go into the deep mountains. I heard from my parents that Bai Xiaohua died in the mountains and was buried alive. If you encounter danger, turn around and run. Don't look back. Do you understand?"
Bai Xiaoan gave many warnings and instructions.
Now that the murderer has not been brought to justice, she is afraid that something might happen to Qi Man.
Qi Man nodded, her face straight, "Sister Xiao An, don't worry. If I'm threatened, I will definitely run away and never look back."
After all, she was the culprit behind Bai Xiaohua's death.
Bai Xiaoan hesitated for a moment, and finally decided to help Qi Man keep it a secret from Grandpa Qi.
Qi Man smiled brightly and said happily: "I knew Sister Xiao An was the best. I'll go into the room and change my clothes."
It is not appropriate to wear a skirt when going to the mountains.
Qi Man found a set of thick leather jacket with a sense of age in the space, which perfectly showed off her curvy figure. She tied her clothes into a high ponytail, looking fashionable and energetic.
He deliberately avoided the route the villagers took to go up the mountain and headed straight into the deep mountains and forests.
In the 1980s, resources were scarce and all the wild vegetables and game at the foot of the mountain had been picked clean. If you wanted to harvest something, you had to go inside.
At the foot of the mountain, the grass had been trampled flat. It was not until we reached the middle that we saw lush green plants, and we had to use a sickle to clear our own path.
But Qi Man had wood-related abilities. With a slight wave of her hand, a clean and tidy path appeared in a second. The path returned to its original state only after it passed.
The forest is teeming with life, with the clear, melodious singing of birds, century-old trees standing tall, and the air filled with crisp, fresh air.
Qi Man took a deep breath and enjoyed it very much.
Suddenly, a sika deer came into view. Qi Man was about to use her supernatural power to attack it, but she saw that the deer had a bulging belly, and it was a pregnant doe. She retracted the supernatural power that was blooming in her hand.
In addition, Qi Man also noticed that not far away, there were several pairs of eyes staring at the doe who was foraging in the forest.
Using wood power and mental strength, it turned out to be the wolf encountered before.
The wild wolves were waiting for the opportunity, ready to rush out and give the doe a fatal blow when she let her guard down. The wild wolves had a tacit understanding and rushed towards the doe together.
The doe was frightened and ran away.
