After the two people from the cowshed arrived, everything was very quiet. Then came the wild boar incident, and the arrest of Li Yan and her husband. The Public Security Bureau was also extremely busy. After meticulously investigating, it turned out that this case was not a simple case of harming people. And sure enough, upon further investigation, good heavens...
During that period, not only in the village, but also in the commune and county, almost everyone turned pale at the mention of Liujiatun. The city was unusually quiet, and even the gangsters were much more cautious.
And those so-called Ideological Committees, they're all keeping a low profile. Who knows what you might say that could land you in the crossfire?
Then came the Lunar New Year and the busy spring season. These two high-profile cases finally came to an end, and the people in the county realized, "Hey? It seems the Public Security Bureau isn't working overtime anymore? And those jeeps aren't rushing around arresting people anymore?"
Such things are not widely publicized, but there is no shortage of people who can read between the lines.
And so, someone has started to probe the waters?
Unfortunately, they happened to arrive just as Cheng Chao and his group were going up the mountain. They were already on edge, and they were probably scared out of their wits.
Hearing this, Jian Dan laughed.
"Will they dare to come again recently? Won't they be traumatized by it?"
"What else could they possibly come to? Let alone recently, I don't think they'll even dare to come this year. They're probably somewhere trembling with fear right now."
I wasn't there. Jixiang happened to come over to deliver a message, and Dongfang went with him. He came back and said that as soon as these people heard that military vehicles were entering the village, they were so scared that they immediately ran out. It was a coincidence that when they got to the village entrance, they saw your brother and the others getting out of the vehicle and lining up. They were so scared that they fell to the ground.
They came in all high and mighty, but left in a real mess, haha!
Are you coming again?
"Hmph! If it were me, I wouldn't have the guts, let alone the face."
"Isn't that right?"
Simple and proud, she tilted her head back. Her brother was amazing; he scared the person away without firing a single shot. She would definitely praise him next time they met.
"But our village is so remote, how come anyone noticed this place?"
Who knows?
One was Cheng Jia, and the other was Mingzhu's father. Her worries were the same; the more she thought about it, the more troubled she became.
"Who knows what those people are thinking? I just don't know if someone else will come if they don't?"
After all, this status was indeed assigned to a lower-level position, so if they wanted to submit their thoughts, no one could find fault with it.
Ugh, this is so frustrating.
I simply patted her gently; there are still ten years or so left. That's all I could do to comfort her.
"Being with you makes Uncle Ming feel much better, so don't get any wild thoughts."
If it were somewhere else, where you wouldn't be able to see it, wouldn't that be even more infuriating?
Yes or no? "
Mingzhu rolled her eyes at her. Didn't she know? But that didn't stop her from wanting to vent.
"When will this kind of life ever end?"
She simply reached out and scooped the unsteady toddler into her arms.
"Just hang in there, it should be soon."
The clouds won't block out the sun forever.
Mingzhu pouted. These words sounded half-hearted.
"Thinking about this is useless. I'll just think about it and go to work the day after tomorrow."
A simple surprise.
"Didn't you have several days off? Why are you back at work so soon?"
Mingzhu sighed.
"Are you out of your mind? I spent two days at home, and you spent two days on the mountain, okay?"
"The seedlings in the backyard have all grown tall; haven't you seen them?"
Simple's mind was a complete mess; she shakily extended two fingers.
"I just went up the mountain for two days? Why do you make it sound like I just got back from a long trip?"
Mingzhu paused, then burst into laughter.
"You're right? Oh my, I'm also stunned. It feels like it's been a long time since I've seen you."
"You know, when you're home, Jixiang and the others are never home; when you're not home, they're still never home."
Mingzhu glanced at the few dogs playing and then noticed a small figure tumbling among the big dogs. She asked,
"Hey? Where did you get another puppy from?"
"Its fur is quite nice."
Mingzhu liked it more and more the more she looked at it.
"You've raised so many already, why don't you give me this little one? It'll keep the child company."
It's simple, but hard to explain in a few words.
"I'm willing to give it up, but I think you should let Dongfang take a look before making a decision?"
Lin Dongfang should be able to recognize this species, right?
Mingzhu was puzzled and even thought of getting up to reach for the little brat.
"Why? Don't worry, he basically never disagrees with anything I want to do."
Jian Dan quickly pressed her down.
"Stop. Don't jump to conclusions. Let Dongfang take a look. If he says you can raise it, then you can take it."
"Really? No regrets?"
He gave a slight smirk, thinking, "Who knows who will regret it later? It certainly won't be me."
Mingzhu probably genuinely wanted to find a playmate for her son, and she actually invited Lin Dongfang over.
"The decision is yours; whether you can raise it or not is up to you."
Lin Dongfang swallowed hard; both of them were like ancestors.
"Honey, if you want to get a dog, I'll go get one for you later. This one, really, won't do."
"Why not? Aren't they all dogs? They're not going to eat people, are they?"
Lin Dongfang
"You're right, it really might eat people. Honey, this isn't a dog, it's a wolf cub."
"We shouldn't follow her example and bring a wolf cub into our house. We still have a son; we have to think about him. If this cub grows up, even several of us won't be able to control it."
Mingzhu belatedly realized what was happening.
"Ah, easy, you treat me!!!"
Lin Dongfang brought some news that wasn't entirely unexpected.
"New educated youth have arrived again."
The two of them exchanged a glance and sighed in unison.
"Why are you here again?"
"The village chief is in a meeting, he should be able to bring it back."
Mingzhu suddenly remembered as well.
"Did Ya-jun go to the commune? She said her gloves were broken a couple of days ago and she was going to buy new ones."
Wouldn't that mean we'd see the new educated youth sooner?
Huh? I almost choked on my own. That's it?
She thought it would be something important.
"Bang bang bang!"
"Woof woof woof!"
Jian Dan was so frightened that she shuddered. She hadn't slept well after staying up all night on the mountain, and even after catching up on sleep when she got back, she hadn't had enough. She sat with Mingzhu for half a day, and since she was already feeling a bit tired, her tone of voice wasn't very pleasant.
"Who's banging on the door? What are you doing? Are you going to ransack the house?"
Mingzhu stared blankly at her, then at Lin Dongfang, wondering who had offended her.
The activity outside paused for a moment, then a slightly helpless voice rang out.
"Young Jian, the village chief asked me to tell you that there are letters and packages for you at the post office, so you can pick them up when you have time."
Simple's heart was pounding and hanging in the air.
"...Ah, I understand..."
As soon as the footsteps left, she collapsed onto the bench, feeling as if she was about to die from overworking herself.
Thinking about it, he swayed as he got up and waved to Mingzhu.
"You guys do as you please, I can't go on, I need to catch up on my sleep."
