Chapter 92 I Don't Want to See Chu Ming (Edited)
Huo Lanci went to Beishan that night to meet several old men and told them the truth.
Huo Lanci looked at Dong Lianyi who was worried and said, "Don't be afraid. If there are their people, there will be my people as well."
Dong Lianyi sighed: "I just don't understand why they would do this. We are all Chinese. What we have in our hands is extremely important. After they take it, are they going to destroy it? Or give it to our enemies?"
"Don't they have a country or a home in their hearts?"
Every time Dong Lianyi thought about how they had overcome all difficulties to come back, only to end up like this, he felt sad.
"In the past, the bombardment was fierce. Isn't it good for everyone to work together?"
Speaking of this, Dong Lianyi had tears in her eyes.
Dong Lianyi knew in his heart that there would always be people who would do anything to gain benefits. He said this only because he felt uncomfortable and couldn't help but speak out.
Fu Henian put his hand on his wife's shoulder: "It will eventually pass."
Dong Lianyi smiled bitterly: "Yes, it will pass eventually, but how long do we have to wait?"
"I have many unfinished plans and many things I want to do. I came across the ocean to learn knowledge, not to clean cow pens and pig pens here every day."
Everyone was silent. Yes, they went abroad under fire and studied hard. After graduation, they returned home under fire again, wanting to repay the country.
And finally?
Cen Xuning looked at his rough hands and thought that these hands were used for experiments and calculations in the past.
They do not discriminate against any job, and after experiencing hardships, they admire the farmers' difficulties. It's just that everyone has their own specialties, and their greatest value is not farming.
Elder Kang looked at Huo Lanci and said, "Don't worry about us old guys. We already know what the people behind this are up to. We will pay attention to safety."
It seems that he had been so low-key in the past that these people had forgotten what he was like on the battlefield.
Yu Wanqing saw that Huo Lanci had been very calm these past few days and was not worried about the people from Beishan at all. It was not until those people were sent over that she understood why.
He saw a familiar face among the three people.
He is Huo Lanci's teammate, named Xue Kun. He is a man who is good at observation, meticulous and skilled.
Yu Wanqing glanced at Huo Lanci and said, "No wonder you weren't worried these days." It turned out that he had sent out his capable generals.
She knew that his people were coming, but she never thought it would be Xue Kun.
Huo Lanci smiled faintly: "Don't worry, not because of Xue Kun's arrival, but because we are here."
"We agreed that once they come, we will find a way to make them stop."
Yu Wanqing took out two pills: "In an emergency, you can take the medicine directly."
"After taking two pills, I guarantee they will become exhausted and completely unable to do anything wrong."
Huo Lanci took the pill and said, "Have you prepared it a long time ago?"
Yu Wanqing nodded: "I have been making preparations since I found out about this."
Huo Lanci quickly asked, "Are those herbs enough?" He would ask someone to get some precious herbs every once in a while.
These are all for Xiaowu. Now I see that she is using most of them on the people around her.
Even if this person is a bad person.
Yu Wanqing sighed: "No more."
How could there be no medicinal herbs? She has an inexhaustible space.
Even so, she would not refuse the medicinal herbs given by Huo Lanci and accepted them all.
Ask her if she has any more?
Of course that's gone.
Huo Lanci nodded: "Okay, write down all the herbs you need and I'll find a way."
The children of the Huo family don't have much, but they are wild and know a lot of people.
In the past, no matter how many herbs Xiaowu needed, he could get them. But now the control is too strict, and even if there is a way, it is impossible to deliver them to him all at once.
It seems that I should deal with things here as soon as possible, go out in person and prepare more precious medicinal materials for Xiaowu.
Yu Wanqing smiled and nodded: "Thank you, Comrade Lao Huo."
Huo Lanci raised his eyebrows: "Call me Aci."
"Maybe next time. I need to go home and cook now." After saying that, she ran away without looking back.
Huo Lanci was stunned when he saw this: "This is intentional. It's definitely intentional."
He quickly caught up with Yu Wanqing: "I'll cook with you."
Yu Wanqing glanced at him and said, "I want to eat the meal you cooked today."
Huo Lanci nodded: "Okay, there is still some rice for lunch, I will make some pork fried rice and some stir-fried vegetables."
"Okay." Yu Wanqing thought to herself that as long as she didn't have to do it herself, everything would be fine.
Suddenly I realized that I became lazy.
The next morning, as soon as Yu Wanqing came down from the mountain, Guo Hongying came to her with a red face.
It was the first time that Yu Wanqing saw Guo Hongying being so shy. She stepped forward to take a look and asked, "Why are you blushing?"
Guo Hongying whispered, "Today, I have my period today."
"Isn't this normal?" Yu Wanqing looked puzzled. It was just her period, why was she blushing?
Hearing this, Guo Hongying gritted her teeth and said, "I got it on my pants, and Chuan Ming saw it."
She wanted to find a hole to crawl into at that time. She was so embarrassed.
I don’t know how to face Chuan Ming in the future. I guess every time I see him, I will think of my vicious side today.
Yu Wanqing was also dumbfounded after hearing this.
What luck this is.
"Wanqing, I don't want to see Chu Ming now." Guo Hongying pursed her lips and said sullenly, "When I see him, I always think of my own wolf."
Yu Wanqing thought secretly in her heart: This time, the cowardly Guo Hongying will definitely avoid Chu Ming. Now it seems that Chu Ming is the one who suffers the most.
"Hongying, if you don't care about this matter, Chu Ming can't do anything to you no matter what he wants."
The two entered Yu Wanqing's home and sat on the chairs. Yu Wanqing looked at Guo Hongying and said, "As long as I am not embarrassed, others will be embarrassed."
Guo Hongying blinked: "Is this really okay?"
Yu Wanqing hummed: "You can just pretend this doesn't exist."
Guo Hongying thought about it and sighed: "It's a bit difficult."
Yu Wanqing shrugged: "If that's the case, then you can only keep thinking about it, and then more people will find out that something is wrong with you, and eventually ask you what happened, and then you won't be able to hold it back and tell others about it."
"This way, more people will know about it."
When Guo Hongying thought about how many people looked at her strangely, she shuddered instantly.
It’s scary just thinking about it.
"Forget it. I'll just pretend nothing happened. Even if Chuan Ming talks to me, I won't pay any attention to him." Guo Hongying made a difficult decision.
Yu Wanqing nodded: "It's a good thing that you know how to think this way."
"As for Chu Ming, he is a man of few words and will not tell anyone about this." Yu Wanqing glanced at her and said, "You should also stop talking nonsense."
Guo Hongying quickly covered her mouth and said, "Don't worry, I will never tell anyone about my outrageous behavior. I have my dignity to protect."
Yu Wanqing chuckled twice, feeling that what Guo Hongying said was unreliable.
"You don't believe me?" Seeing Yu Wanqing's expression, Guo Hongying quickly explained, "I really wouldn't say anything nonsense."
Yu Wanqing smiled and poked Guo Hongying on the head: "You won't tell Hongqi about this?"
"No, I absolutely won't tell you. I won't tell you such an ugly thing." Guo Hongying shook her head repeatedly. She really would not tell Hongqi about this.
However, Yu Wanqing didn't really believe that this nagging kid could hold it in.
Chuan Ming came back for lunch at noon and found Guo Hongying glaring at him. He felt a little puzzled and thought to himself: I didn't make her angry, did I?
He took out a pheasant from the basket and said, "I'll kill this chicken later and you can use it to make soup tonight."
"It's good for your health."
Guo Hongying didn't want to pay attention to Chu Ming, but he seemed to care about her just now. She felt that she shouldn't give Chu Ming a cold face, so she could only nod: "I understand."
Chu Ming smiled and said, "You can't learn how to cook, but the chicken soup you make is delicious."
Guo Hongying snorted: "I went to Wanqing and Qingmei to learn this."
Although she can't cook, she can make chicken soup now: "I'll go to the commune someday to see if I can buy spare ribs, and then I'll learn how to make spare rib soup from Wanqing."
Chu Ming nodded, but took the matter to heart.
Want some pork rib soup?
He suddenly remembered that he and Tieniu had discovered traces of wild boars in the mountains yesterday. If they could kill them, they wouldn't have to go to the commune to buy spare ribs.
Chu Ming repeated his thoughts to Huo Lanci in the evening: "I compared the footprints of the wild boars, and there are no less than eight big wild boars and five small wild boars."
"Do you dare to do it once?"
Huo Lanci glanced at Yu Wanqing: "What do you think?"
Yu Wanqing nodded: "Sure, the rice has already begun to ear, if a wild boar comes down, it will definitely cause great losses."
"We'll come find you tomorrow night." Chu Ming looked at Huo Lanci and Yu Wanqing: "You should be careful tonight. I'm worried that wild boars will come down the mountain."
Yu Wanqing and Huo Lanci both agreed with a smile.
When the two were patrolling the mountain at night, they actually discovered a group of wild boars. Yu Wanqing held her breath and counted them. Just as Chu Ming said, there were eight big wild boars, five small wild boars, and two medium-sized wild boars.
It seems that this is a big family.
Yu Wanqing and Huo Lanci looked at each other, and both of them were secretly thinking about killing all these wild boars in one go.
Instead of making a fuss, they waited until the wild boar left before climbing down the tree.
Yu Wanqing said: "This should be where they often hang out."
Huo Lanci looked around and then asked slowly, "Are you planning to dig a trap?"
"If we want to capture this group of wild boars quietly, we can only dig traps, otherwise it will easily arouse suspicion among the team." Yu Wanqing pointed to a place with the most wild boar footprints and said slowly: "There are both new and old footprints, proving that this group of wild boars have been active here for a long time. We set traps while surrounding them."
Huo Lanci also noticed the surrounding terrain and felt that Wan Qing's consideration was correct. Digging a trap was a good choice.
The two men wandered around the area and finally decided on a few places to dig traps.
The next day, Huo Lanci told the people at the educated youth center about the matter, and Lu Guohua and others were eager to give it a try.
After a meeting in the evening, the group quietly entered the mountain from the north. They began to dig traps according to the places pointed out by Huo Lanci and Yu Wanqing.
The male comrades at the educated youth site are now quite strong, so they can dig traps very quickly.
It was already past three in the morning when the trap was set, and everyone hurried down the mountain.
Yu Wanqing and Huo Lanci continued with their work.
That night the wild boar did not appear.
When Chuan Ming went to patrol the mountains during the day, he took a special look at the traps. There were no wild boars and no one had touched the traps.
He then went on his inspection.
In the evening, everyone followed us into the mountains.
It was discovered that four of the six traps dug by the crowd contained wild boars, and the other two traps were not empty, containing two rabbits and a pheasant.
Lu Guohua was stunned as he looked at the scene in front of him: "Six traps, all with prey, this is too unbelievable."
“It’s like God is helping us.”
After he finished speaking, he realized what he had said and quickly shut up.
Lu Guohua heaved a sigh of relief when he found that his companions standing around him were not looking at him with reproachful eyes.
Li Wenzhou patted Lu Guohua on the shoulder and said, "You are just expressing what we all feel."
"It's amazing." Ji Qing, who is always calm and quiet, said: "These wild boars are still alive. Kill them all quickly and take them away."
A group of male educated youth worked together to kill four large wild boars, and then dragged them all up with a large rope.
Huo Lanci looked at the four wild boars and said, "We'll keep one for ourselves, and Guohua and I will sell the remaining three after daybreak."
"The pheasants and rabbits stay."
No one has any opinion.
The people at the educated youth site were carrying a wild boar weighing more than 200 kilograms back from Beishan. When the female educated youth learned that they had really caught a wild boar, they hurried to boil water to help.
As for Huo Lanci, Chu Ming and others, they hid the three wild boars and sent them away at about dawn.
When they carried the wild boar down, the people in Beishan were also alarmed. One of them saw this scene and secretly wanted to report it, but when he turned around, he saw Xue Kun staring at him with a smile.
Zhang Shengli looked at Xue Kun fiercely: "Xue Kun, you'd better stop minding your own business."
Xue Kun sneered: "What if I were to meddle in other people's business?"
After he finished speaking, he stretched out his hand that was hidden behind his back. In his hand, he held a big stick and hit Zhang Shengli with it, knocking him down.
When the shouts here were heard, screams were also heard in the house.
Dong Lianyi came out with a stick and a big pine cone: "It's too noisy, shut their mouths." After saying that, she stuffed the big pine cone in her hand into Zhang Shengli's open mouth.
Suddenly, the world was quiet.
The sound of beating could be heard in the house, but no screams were heard.
Xue Kun looked at the big pine cone and suddenly lit a stick of incense for Zhang Shengli. Did he really think that scholars have no temper?
Dong Lianyi had already been dissatisfied, so he raised the stick in his hand and smashed it down, breaking Zhang Shengli's leg directly.
Zhang Shengli twisted in pain. She struggled to stand up, but Xue Kun stepped on her and said, "Don't move, or your hand will be broken next time."
Zhang Shengli looked at Xue Kun and Dong Lianyi viciously. He finally understood that they were a group of people.
Xue Kun looked at him and laughed: "Have you finally figured it out?"
"You have a plan, but our boss has a way to get over the wall."
Dong Lianyi said, "Xiao Kun, drag the person in."
Xue Kun nodded, bent down, and dragged the man into the house like a dead dog.
