Chapter 110 Trap
How can she make everyone think that her family is not so lucky and that Song Jingyun is actually an unlucky guy?
How about bringing a shovel with you when you go to the mountains tomorrow, dig a hole, push the little son-in-law into it, and then say that he accidentally fell into a trap set by a hunter? Or, after entering the mountains, get yourself a little dirty, and then push the little son-in-law to make him fall, and then tell others that he was unlucky and got attacked by a wild boar? But in this way, the little son-in-law seems to be injured, which seems a bit unfair to him.
Or you could just go into the mountains for a few days, dig up some flowers and plants, and then say that you didn't hunt anything.
Going into the mountains and coming back empty-handed for many times, isn't that bad luck? Jiang Mixia thought this was a good idea, so she closed her eyes and went to sleep with satisfaction.
“A-choo!”
Jiang Chunhe sneezed loudly.
"Are you okay?" Mrs. Wu asked hurriedly.
"Nothing, I just feel a chill down my spine."
Cool? It's such a hot day.
Mrs. Wu wiped the sweat from her forehead, picked up the palm-leaf fan beside her, and fanned herself and the child lying next to her.
Jiang Chunhe also wiped the sweat from his forehead.
It's quite hot, and there's little wind tonight. It's extremely stuffy.
It's such a hot day, but I feel a chill down my spine. It's weird.
Jiang Chunhe turned over in fear. ——The next morning, after breakfast, Jiang Mixia and Song Jingyun prepared to go into the mountains.
Sun Ergou suggested that he go with them.
In the past, he often went to the mountains to pick wild fruits and hunt rabbits to fill his stomach, and he knew the roads in the mountains very well.
Jiang Mixia thought about it and took him with her.
The three of them went into the mountain together.
"What do you want to hunt, Sister Xia?" Sun Ergou asked excitedly, holding the thing in his hand. "I'm good at hunting rabbits."
"I'm not hunting anything. I'm just going to stroll around the mountains and see if there are any pretty flowers and plants. I'll dig some up and take them home." Jiang Mixia replied.
It turned out that they went into the mountains to dig flowers and plants, not to hunt. No wonder they only brought a spade and a shovel.
Sun Ergou and Song Jingyun were both a little discouraged.
The former was discouraged because he felt that he could not show off his abilities in front of Jiang Mixia.
The latter is that there is no game to cook, which is a pity.
But since Jiang Mixia wanted flowers and plants, there was no reason for the two of them to refuse. They followed Jiang Mixia into the mountains and, according to what she said, looked for flowers and plants that looked easy to grow and beautiful to look at.
There are many wild things in the mountains, including many animals and even more plants, many of which are of strange shapes and cannot be named.
Song Jingyun and Sun Ergou didn't know what kind of flowers and plants to dig up. Since it was Jiang Mixia's request, she must like those with beautiful flowers and big leaves, so they only picked the ones they liked.
After a busy period, the bamboo basket on his back was already half full.
The sun was rising higher, and although the mountain was cool, several people had a layer of sweat on their foreheads because of their busy work.
When they reached a mountain spring, Jiang Mixia suggested taking a break and scooping some spring water to wash their faces and cool down.
Song Jingyun picked up a few stones.
Because of the flushing of mountain spring water, the surface of these stones has become very smooth and moist to the touch. Song Jingyun picked up a few fist-sized stones and threw them into the bamboo basket.
"Brother-in-law Xia, these stones are beautiful." Sun Ergou also picked up a few.
They are smooth and round pebbles, and because of years of immersion and erosion, the pebbles seem to be polished and have a sparkling glow.
"These stones will look nice when placed in fish tanks or flower pots." Sun Ergou said, "I saw a shop in town that sells beautiful pebbles. It's said that the gardeners in the farm sometimes want these things."
Song Jingyun scratched his head and said, "But I think the ones I picked up are better looking."
Sun Ergou: "..."
The ones that Song Jingyun picked up were full of holes and had a very dark color, an indescribable gray-brown color, with a layer of moss on the surface. Such stones could not be described as ordinary, but rather ugly.
But since Song Jingyun said it looks good, then let him do as he pleases.
What's more, Sister Xia didn't say anything...
Sun Ergou didn't say anything. He just collected the pebbles that he thought were pretty and prepared to go back and use them to decorate the flowerpot for Jiang Mixia.
After resting for a while, the three people continued to walk inside.
This is a valley surrounded by mountains. The terrain is flat, and the grass is lush and green, blocking out the sun. There are many and chaotic bird calls. Faintly, you can see the grass swaying, some wild rabbits whizzing by, and some pheasants passing by, leaving blurry silhouettes behind their colorful tails.
Smoked rabbit, dry pot chicken...
Song Jingyun swallowed his saliva and said, "Madam, are we really not going hunting today?"
"I'm afraid it's impossible to fight." Jiang Mixia shrugged and spread her hands, "I didn't bring any weapons."
Indeed, they were holding shovels, small spades and other tools in their hands for digging flowers and plants, and they didn't even bring machetes.
What a pity...
Song Jingyun sighed, and while taking a break to eat a meat pie, he dug the ground at his feet with the shovel in his hand.
"What are you digging?" Jiang Mixia ate the pancake in her hand and came over to take a look.
"Dig a trap." Song Jingyun ate the biscuit in his hand in a few bites, and then dug the small hole under his feet to make it bigger.
They stopped only when the pit was about half a person deep.
"Alright." Song Jingyun wiped the sweat from his forehead and said excitedly, "Let's go quickly, otherwise those wild animals won't dare to come."
Jiang Mixia, "..."
The bare big pit in front of us has no cover on top and no bamboo forks or anything at the bottom of the pit. Not to mention that wild animals with eyesight won't fall in, even if they fall in, most of them can get out from this height.
The trap of the young son-in-law is destined to yield no results.
But I’m not here to hunt today, so if I don’t get anything, then so be it. It’s not a big deal.
Jiang Mixia thought this as she walked until her thoughts were interrupted by a sound.
It was a mixture of humming, howling, and so on. The sound was very loud, and judging by the noise, it seemed to be not far away...
"It must be my trap that caught the wild animal!" Song Jingyun walked back happily.
Jiang Mixia hurriedly followed, fearing that if there really were any wild animals appearing, they might hurt her son-in-law.
Sun Ergou also hurriedly followed, gripping the big shovel tightly in his hand.
The three people returned to the place where Song Jingyun had dug the trap, and sure enough, they saw something caught in the pit.
A big wild boar.
Logically speaking, a pit with such a small diameter is not big enough for a big wild boar to fall into. At most, two legs would fall in and the boar could easily struggle out.
