Chapter 21 Chapter 21 Mingze, she is not attracted to you, is she...

Wang Jinbao did not understand at first, but after a while he finally realized that these people were saying that he was not good-looking. This is nonsense, he has grown up, but no one has ever said that he is not good-looking, his grandma, his parents, and his three sisters all say that he is handsome every day.

"No, who are you saying is ugly, is there something wrong with your eyes? I am so handsome, and you say I am ugly?"

He looked fierce and righteous.

"..."

Everyone present was confused for a moment.

What the hell?

Several old ladies suspected that they were old and hard of hearing, otherwise how could they hear such outrageous words?

Shen Moer was very serious: "I said rat-like, not sly."

Wang Jinbao: "What's the difference? They all said I was ugly!"

Shen Moer: "You are good to have such self-knowledge."

Wang Jinbao was so angry that his blood boiled: "You, you, you, did you do it on purpose? You must have done it on purpose. You deliberately said this to belittle me, just to ask for more betrothal gifts. I tell you, it's impossible! You should be happy that you can marry me. Don't ask for betrothal gifts. I won't give a single cent of betrothal gifts! With such good conditions, many people want to marry me, but I won't give a betrothal gift when I marry a wife!"

He didn't think that people looked down on him. He had such good conditions, How could he not like her? It was obvious that this woman was cunning and wanted to marry him, but also wanted more gifts. Haha, he would not be fooled.

Shen Moer: "..."

She was also well-informed. Every year, she would sneak into the Qionglin Banquet to see what was new. She had seen so many arrogant and pedantic people, but none of them felt so good about themselves as the one in front of her. He was so ordinary but so confident. He talked to himself to such an extent that she was speechless.

The others also had faces full of confusion. The old ladies couldn't help but look at Tian Fang. They were a little curious. Where did she get such a funny guy?

Aunt Chen couldn't help but hold Shen Moer and whispered: "I just said that, but I didn't mean for you to consider this guy. Mom, it's worse to have a brain problem than to be ugly."

Tian Fang was also speechless. She knew that this nephew was not very reliable, but she really didn't know if he could be so unreliable. After all, she only saw him once during the New Year and other festivals. She really didn't realize that he could be so outrageous before.

She was regretting it now. She had spent so much time thinking out a solution, but now she was about to have a miscarriage: "Jinbao, why are you talking about this now? The marriage, the gift and the dowry can all be discussed later. Besides, you are the only son in your family, and Moer is the only one in her family. In the end, everything in the house will belong to both of you."

She hinted wildly, hoping that Wang Jinbao could understand what she meant and say a few nice words to stabilize the situation.

Wang Jinbao was not a person who could listen to advice: "Needless to say, can't all the things in her family be exchanged for dowry? I think this house is not worth much money. Forget it, just sell it for a little bit."

"..."

She thought his previous remarks were shocking enough, but she didn't know that there was no most shocking, only more shocking. It was

simply

eye-opening. The old ladies, who were in their teens, were also stunned. They had seen people who were rich but poor trying to cheat on their daughter's dowry, but they had never seen someone do it so righteously and openly. This really opened their eyes.

Tian Fang's face turned pale, and she didn't want to do anything else. She just wanted to end this matter. She wanted to take the man away directly, but she was afraid that he would say something scary again. Everything else would be fine, but if he took out the 100 yuan that she had agreed to give her mother, she would be doomed!

Just when Tian Fang was extremely anxious, Shen Moer glanced at her and said to Wang Jinbao: "Don't talk about these nonsense, I don't like you, go with your sister."

Wang Jinbao immediately widened his eyes and said angrily: "This is my aunt, my dear aunt! You bitch, what are you looking at, you really have something wrong with your eyes, you are like this, how dare you say you don't like me!"

Shen Moer curled the corners of her mouth, glanced at Tian Fang whose face turned a little paler, and nodded: "Oh, it turns out to be your dear aunt, let's make it clear, follow your dear aunt!"

She agreed to let Tian Fang come and take a look, just to find out what Tian Fang was up to. As expected, she was instigating her family to scheme against her family's money and house.

Shen Moer had actually guessed it long ago, so she deliberately brought a few aunts with her, in order to prevent Tian Fang from spreading rumors and throwing dirty water when no one else was present.

She had heard about this kind of thing when she was in Daliang. Some people would do many dirty things that others could not imagine in order to marry a noble lady. Spreading rumors and throwing dirty water were the least of their worries. In short, they would use all means to force the woman to marry. In particular, the ethics were more stringent for women. Sometimes they could only marry with a pinched nose, or they could only hang themselves with a rope.

Shen Moer believed that Tian Fang could do such a thing. Some people did not kill or set fire to others, but they could also take others' lives by doing things that would be condemned morally.

Being ridiculed again and again, Wang Jinbao was almost going crazy.

He had never been wronged like this before. He was originally in another brigade and was here for a blind date, so he was more or less reserved. But now, Shen Moer's words broke his defense and his expression became distorted: "Damn, you stinky woman, I'll beat you to death!"

He rushed up and wanted to hit Shen Moer.

Since Shen Moer had been deliberately using words to provoke him, she was naturally on guard against him suddenly attacking and hurting people. She was just about to pretend to be scared by him and then "accidentally" kick him in the foot, but a figure flashed by and kicked Wang Jinbao hard from the side, knocking him to the ground in an instant. It was

quite clean and neat.

It was Fu Mingze.

Fu Mingze came here to return the basket. After he arrived, he found that there were quite a lot of people here. He stood by and waited for a while. As a result, he heard Wang Jinbao talking nonsense there. He found this idiot annoying and felt a little irritated. He didn't know that this idiot was not only dishonest, but also wanted to hit someone.

Seeing Wang Jinbao rushing towards Shen Moli, Fu Mingze's heart skipped a beat. Without thinking, he stepped forward and kicked him.

It happened so fast. When the old ladies saw that Wang Jinbao wanted to hit someone, they were still panicking: "What are you doing? Don't mess around. You are from the Shashan Brigade and you are making trouble in my Yangliu Brigade..."

He was kicked to the ground halfway through his words.

The old ladies also reacted quickly. After a moment of surprise, they immediately continued, "Well done! Hey, don't you see what kind of place our Yangliu Brigade is? It's really that any cat or dog dares to come here and act wild. Come one and beat one, come two and beat two!"

Wang Jinbao was lying on the ground, howling: "Fuck, you dare to hit me, bitch, bastard, I tell you, you are done, you are done!"

Tian Fang wanted to help him up: "Hey, let's talk it out, Jinbao is just talking, Fu Zhiqing, how can you really hit someone?"

Wang Jinbao was cursing and trying to get up, but just when he was halfway up, a big foot kicked him from behind and kicked him back to the ground.

This time, it was not Fu Mingze who kicked him, but Shen Shaoyuan who was going home from work.

Shen Shaoyuan saw a group of people standing at the door of his house from a distance. At first, he thought they were old ladies coming to visit. When he saw Tian Fang and a strange man, he immediately felt something was wrong and immediately quickened his pace. As a result, he saw that the man seemed to want to hit his daughter Moer.

Shen Shaoyuan was so angry. How could this blind scoundrel dare to bully his daughter?

Unfortunately, he was a little far away. When he ran over, Fu Mingze had already kicked him down. As a result, the scoundrel was still swearing. Shen Shaoyuan was furious and kicked

him again. Even so, Shen Shaoyuan was still not satisfied and raised his foot to kick again. Tian Fang hurriedly held him back: "Seventh brother, don't hit me, don't hit me, it's just a quarrel between children. It's a misunderstanding, all misunderstandings." Shen Shaoyuan

glanced at Wang Jinbao and sneered: "He doesn't look younger than you, is he still a child?"

It's no wonder that the father and daughter have the same angle when they ridicule people.

Tian Fang was really in a dilemma now, but no matter what, she couldn't let Wang Jinbao get beaten here. Not to mention the Wang family, her sister Tian Cui would tear her apart. She was simply exhausted, very exhausted, but she had to force herself to say nice things: "Yes, yes, he doesn't look like a child, but he is indeed a child, and he is not very sensible. I will take him away, I will take him away now."

She hurriedly tried to help Wang Jinbao, but Wang Jinbao didn't appreciate it at all and directly shook her hand away: "What nonsense are you talking about, who is a child, who is ignorant? I must let you see how powerful I am..."

When he got up whining, he clenched his fists and wanted to fight back, but he saw that there were six people on the opposite side, one, two, three, four, five, six, and two of them were men. , the older one was holding a stick: "Come, come here, let me see how powerful you are."

Wang Jinbao: "..."

He was immediately frightened and subconsciously took two steps back: "You, you, you, don't mess around!"

Tian Fang hurriedly tried to smooth things over: "Forget it, forget it, let's forget about it. Auntie will introduce you to a better one later. The meal should be ready at home, let's go home and eat first. In order for you to come over, Auntie bought half a pound of meat. Let's go eat."

Tian Fang wanted to take the man away quickly. She was afraid that this guy would say something shameless and irritate Shen Shaoyuan, and Shen Shaoyuan would strangle him with a hemp rope.

Wang Jinbao looked at the others and then at Shen Moer. He actually liked Shen Moer very much. Not to mention their team, even in the surrounding villages, they had never seen such a beautiful girl!

He was pulled by Tian Fang. He wanted to leave but refused to leave. He muttered, "Do you want a betrothal gift? Otherwise, a little betrothal gift is fine, but the dowry will be more..."

Shen Shaoyuan was furious: "How dare you! You are a shrew-headed bastard, how dare you dream of swan meat! Look at me, uh, look at me, I will beat you to death!"

He was so angry that he almost said "I am the king" and threw a stick with all his strength.

"You, you, you, how can you hit someone!"

Wang Jinbao was hit by a stick and screamed in pain. Tian Fang stepped forward to stop him, but Shen Shaoyuan didn't care about anything and beat Tian Fang together.

Anyway, the cheap sister-in-law brought such a person to the house, obviously with bad intentions.

"Hey, Lao Qi, stop hitting me, hey, go, go, Jinbao, let's go--"

Tian Fang screamed, Wang Jinbao howled like a ghost, at this time, Wang Jinbao still didn't forget to cheat his good aunt, and heard him howling and cursing: "It's all your fault, what a lousy marriage you found, I'll tell my mom, my grandma, and my grandmother later, and you still want to cheat my family of a hundred yuan, mom, dream, you are dreaming!"

Tian Fang was really crazy, and it was only then that she realized that they couldn't avoid the stick, couldn't they run?

In fact, what she wanted to do was to block Wang Jinbao's mouth, but she was not tall enough, so she had no choice but to drag Wang Jinbao out: "Damn you little bastard, what nonsense are you talking about? Don't talk nonsense. If your mother hadn't asked me to find a partner for you, I wouldn't care about your business!"

She quickly distanced herself from the matter, and then used all her strength to drag Wang Jinbao away.

After the two ran away, Shen Shaoyuan leisurely put the stick back at the door.

The scene was quiet for a while, and several old ladies looked at each other, and their hearts were very complicated.

What happened today was too disgraceful.

They are all old sparrows of Dongting Lake. Although Wang Jinbao did not explain it so clearly, just a few words and the connection between the upper and lower parts are enough for them to understand the cause and effect.

It is clear that Tian Fang is thinking about the 300 yuan and the house of Shen Laoqi's family. She wants to keep the money in her family and take it to her mother's family... and the 100 yuan mentioned by Wang Jinbao at the end, although Tian Fang denied it, everyone actually has their own judgment.

Tian Fang has always had a good reputation in the team. Of course, the old ladies are not as easy to fool as the grandfathers. They just think that this person is very good at saving face, but they really didn't expect that she could do such a thing. Thinking about it this way, the matter of snatching food at that time may not be as she said, it was all Cao Mei's idea.

The old ladies secretly decided to talk about this matter with the other old sisters, and went back with the excuse that it was getting late.

Fu Mingze returned the basket and was about to leave, but was stopped by Shen Moer: "Fu Zhiqing, you still haven't taken something."

Shen Moer went into the house and took some dry vegetable leaves to wrap up the half rabbit that had been roasted earlier, and took it out to Fu Mingze: "It's the agreed half rabbit, why don't you come over? I'm just preparing things and will send it to you. The other one needs to be dried and roasted, I'll send it to you later."

Everything was discussed in advance. , Fu Mingze did not refuse: "Sorry to trouble Comrade Shen."

Shen Moer smiled: "I'm sorry for what you did just now, otherwise I might have been beaten."

Fu Mingze shook his head: "It's just a small effort."

It was a conditioned reflex under anxiety at the time. In fact, after seeing how skillfully Shen Shaoyuan beat people, and thinking about how Shen Moer reacted so quickly when catching rabbits, Fu Mingze inexplicably had an intuition that Shen Moer might not suffer if he didn't take action.

Fu Mingze said hello to Shen Shaoyuan, and left with half a □□.

Looking at Fu Mingze's back slowly walking away, Shen Shaoyuan narrowed his eyes, turned his head and asked Shen Moer: "Little Moer, when did you become so familiar with this Fu Zhiqing?"

Shen Moer: "Didn't I ask him to draw the blueprints? Also, today I went to the mountains to pick mushrooms with Aunt Chen and the others. Fu Zhiqing went too, and we caught the rabbit together."

Shen Shaoyuan said sourly: "How did it become you two?"

Shen Moer laughed. Her father was like this in the past. He was worried about her marriage and wanted to find a good son-in-law for her as soon as possible. He was also picky about those young men and was always dissatisfied with any of them.

"Well, if it weren't for the sudden change, your marriage should have been settled." Shen Shaoyuan sighed, and then said seriously, "You can choose the son-in-law you like. There is only one thing, you have to find a live-in son-in-law. I have to see you by my side to feel at ease."

In the past, after all, it was in the capital. Even if his daughter was married, he was a leisurely prince. Even if he visited his daughter's house every day, would anyone dare to stop him? But now it is different. It is better to marry in the village. If she marries far away, can he still rush over every day? The

father and daughter chatted idly and went to the kitchen to get food.

The rabbit was cooked long ago, braised with mushrooms, red oil and red sauce, and the fresh fragrance was refreshing. The wild vegetables were mixed cold, and the weather was hot, so it was refreshing to eat.

While eating, Shen Moer told Shen Shaoyuan everything that happened during the day, and Shen Shaoyuan also told him about what he saw and heard in the commune.

They have been doing this for a while, on the one hand to keep track of each other

's situation, and on the other hand to learn more about the world. Shen Moer also told him about Liu Yinshuang, and both father and daughter felt that there might be something strange about Liu Yinshuang.

*

On the other side, Fu Mingze returned to the educated youth point, and the others were already eating in the main hall.

A lot of mushrooms and wild vegetables were harvested today, and the educated youth point fried two dishes and cooked rice. Of course, each person only had a small bowl of rice, so it was impossible to eat a full meal.

Zheng Jiamin had prepared the meal for Fu Mingze. As soon as Fu Mingze sat down, he started to mutter: "It's just a basket, why did you take so long? If I hadn't served you the meal, you would have almost had to eat the pot." He

winked in the direction of Zhang Zhiqiang.

Although he lowered his voice, the problem was that the whole table was so small, how could Zhang Zhiqiang not hear him?

Zhang Zhiqiang couldn't help but say: "I just forgot that there was one person who hadn't served yet."

Zheng Jiamin pouted, as if to say "Okay, okay, whatever you say is what it is", Zhang Zhiqiang could only grit his teeth and bear it.

After dinner, Fu Mingze called Zheng Jiamin to take a walk together. After walking a distance from the educated youth site, Zheng Jiamin whispered, "I suspect that Yang Qingqing stole your soap. I saw her washing clothes today. The soap looked new, but it was only half done."

He looked back furtively and continued, "She often comes to see Shi Wei. It's possible that she took advantage of the opportunity to steal the sheep at that time. Moreover, I just looked carefully. When we came out, Yang Qingqing was still peeking in from the stove. Hiss, come to think of it, she seems to be paying attention to you."

Shi Wei and Yang Qingqing are from the same hometown and they are usually very close.

Fu Mingze looked at him and couldn't help saying, "If you keep sneaking around like this, I think you're a thief."

Zheng Jiamin stood up straight in an instant and scratched his head, "I'm afraid of being overheard. After all, there is no real evidence. What if I wrongly accuse someone? It's not good to be overheard."

As they talked, they walked to the yard of Uncle Zhang, a five-guarantee household. There was a tree outside his yard that was struck by lightning and was half dead. Fu Mingze took out half of a rabbit wrapped in vegetable leaves from the hole in the tree, divided it into two halves, and handed half to Zheng Jiamin.

Zheng Jiamin was shocked: "You, you, you hid the food here?"

Fu Mingze calmly explained: "This place is remote, no one comes here, and Uncle Zhang is hard of hearing, so he usually can't hear it, so it's not easy to be discovered." In fact, it's okay to be discovered. Uncle Zhang is a kind person, at most he will smile and won't tell anyone.

Zheng Jiamin gave a thumbs up, took a big bite of the meat, stuffed his mouth full, and said while chewing: "Well, this is really delicious, so delicious!"

Fu Mingze looked at him with disdain, took a bite of the meat and ate it slowly. It was indeed delicious, without any grass smell. Comrade Shen Moer's cooking skills are very good.

Zheng Jiamin ate most of it in one gulp, then he slowed down and asked curiously: "Did you catch the rabbits today in the mountains? You are amazing. You have even mixed up with the villagers. Even though we all went up the mountain, the villagers are more familiar with the place than us and know where the good stuff is." He said that Fu Mingze brought back more mushrooms and wild vegetables than them today, not to mention that he even caught a rabbit.

In the darkness of the night, Fu Mingze looked towards the direction of the village entrance and curled the corners of his lips unconsciously. After a while, he retracted his gaze and reminded: "It was also caught by chance. You can eat it, but don't go out and talk nonsense."

Zheng Jiamin patted his chest with his greasy hands: "Don't worry, I swallowed it all with the meat."

As he said, he nudged Fu Mingze with his elbow again, with a bit of ridicule in his voice: "Who made the rabbit, was it Comrade Shen Moer? Wow, Comrade Shen Moer's craftsmanship is really good. Hey, Mingze, I found that she treats you very well, it can't be... Did he fancy you?"

Fu Mingze kicked him: "Stop talking nonsense, go back quickly after eating."

Zheng Jiamin: "Wait for me to chew the bones... Hey, I'm just chatting casually. Comrade Shen looks much better since she came back. She seems to have grown up and is getting more and more beautiful. You don't know, some of them said behind her back that she is prettier than Shen Lingling. Tsk, they were the ones who said that about Comrade Shen behind her back before, a bunch of fence-sitters."

They were referring to the other male educated youth, of course, not including Zhang Zhiqiang, Shen Lingling's ultimate supporter.

After finally finishing the meal, Zheng Jiamin thought of something else: "But, Comrade Shen Moer is not suitable for you. Not to mention that there is no hope for you to return to the city after getting married in the countryside, Comrade Shen Moer's family, I heard that they want to recruit a live-in son-in-law, and I don't think you look like someone who can be a live-in son-in-law." Fu Mingze

was really impatient this time, and kicked him with his leg: "Hurry up, go back!" With a long leg, he walked away first.

Zheng Jiamin rubbed his trousers and muttered: "Long legs are great, tut, why are you suddenly annoyed?" He

hurried to catch up.

What Fu Mingze and Zheng Jiamin didn't know was that when they talked about Yang Qingqing, Yang Qingqing was actually talking about them to others.

In the vegetable garden behind the educated youth site, Yang Qingqing and Shi Wei squatted in the corner. Yang Qingqing slapped mosquitoes and lowered her voice.

"They must have gone to have extra meals. Now I don't know where they are hiding to eat meat. I told you before that Fu Mingze is just pretending. He looks so delicate and tender. Does he look like a child from a poor family? Moreover, he has to go to the commune every few days. I have never seen him buy anything. Why does he go to the commune? I followed him several times, but I was thrown away when there were too many people. Why would he throw me away if he was not a little disgusted? And look at him, he is so big-handed and bought such a big bar of soap to wash clothes. Is this something a poor child would do?"

Shi Wei was a little impatient. He was almost confused by what Yang Qingqing said.

He was skeptical at first, but after months of observation, he couldn't find any clues. Either Fu Mingze was too good to show any flaws, or Fu Mingze was actually rich and pretended to be poor. This was just Yang Qingqing's hysterical idea.

"Even if they went to have extra meals, how can you be sure that it was Fu Mingze who paid for it? Why couldn't it be Zheng Jiamin? He went to the commune every now and then. He himself said that he knew someone from the textile factory. Sometimes they would invite him to their home for a meal or ask him to help write a letter. There's nothing strange about that, right? As for the soap, wasn't the soap ticket given to him by Zheng Jiamin? Besides, who wouldn't buy a whole bar of soap? How could he buy half a bar? There's no way the salesperson would agree to that!"

Shi Wei couldn't help but said, "Zheng Jiamin's family is obviously well-off. If you want to find a sucker to serve you, why don't you find Zheng Jiamin?"

Yang Qingqing: "What do you mean I want to find a sucker? I want to find a partner! If Fu Mingze is rich, why should I put up with that shorty Zheng Jiamin? Isn't it good to have both wealth and good looks?"

In the dark, Shi Wei couldn't help but roll his eyes. Why should I put up with that shorty Zheng Jiamin? It's still unclear whether Zheng Jiamin will look down on you or not.

Shi Wei slapped a mosquito again and said, "Let's talk about it tomorrow. It's stupid to sit here and feed mosquitoes for nothing."

Yang Qingqing grabbed him and said, "I've made up my mind. No matter whether Fu Mingze has money or not, I'm going to date him first. If he really has no money, I can just dump him. He's been avoiding me all day, you have to help me!"

The two of them whispered to each other for a long time before they slapped mosquitoes and left.

After they left for a long time, a very faint voice came from the other side of the vegetable garden: "Ouch, my legs are numb, I was almost carried away by a mosquito."

After a long time, the man staggered to his feet, and did not dare to go directly to the educated youth camp. Instead, he climbed over the fence of the vegetable garden with difficulty, deliberately ran away, and then entered the educated youth camp from another direction. As soon as he entered

the educated youth camp, he ran into Yang Qingqing: "Qiutong, where have you been in the middle of the night? Why is your face red? Did you get bit by a mosquito?"

Yes, the unlucky person who squatted in the vegetable garden for a long time and did not even dare to swat a mosquito was the female educated youth Wang Qiutong.

Wang Qiutong had once argued with Shen Lingling in the county department store over a beautiful piece of blouse, so it was conceivable that her family conditions were very good.

So in fact, she often sneaked out to have extra meals, but unfortunately, because of a meeting in the village today, she had a late meal, and when she found a chance to go out, it was already dark. Wang Qiutong didn't dare to go far, so she simply hid in the vegetable garden.

The vegetable garden was surrounded by a fence, and broom grass was planted in the four corners. It was very difficult to find her hiding in it when it was dark.

The problem was that everyone thought so, so Wang Qiutong ran into Yang Qingqing and the others.

When Yang Qingqing and Shi Wei were talking, Wang Qiutong didn't even dare to move, especially when they were discussing how to harm people later, Wang Qiutong was even more afraid to move.

Wang Qiutong had always thought that Yang Qingqing looked kind, but was not so easy to get along with. Today, after listening to her conversation with Shi Wei, she realized that she had underestimated her. She was not difficult to get along with at all . She was a very bad person!

So when she saw Yang Qingqing at first glance, she was frightened and trembled all over.

Fortunately, Fu Mingze and Zheng Jiamin also came back at this time, and Yang Qingqing's attention was immediately diverted. Wang Qiutong secretly breathed a sigh of relief and glanced at Fu Mingze with a bit of sympathy in her eyes.

It was too miserable for Fu Zhiqing to be targeted by someone like Yang Qingqing.

*

The news that Tian Fang arranged for her nephew to come for a blind date with Shen Moli and allegedly asked for a hundred yuan as an introduction fee spread throughout the village the next day.

There was no way, the old ladies were too good at spreading gossip.

In fact, another factor was that Tian Fang's unlucky nephew was really weird, and his words and actions were outrageous. The old ladies imitated him with passion and emotion, which shocked everyone else.

Especially those who lived near Tian Fang's house, some saw Tian Fang dragging someone back yesterday, and some saw Tian Fang sending someone out of the village this morning. In short, they saw with their own eyes how ugly this young man was, so they felt that his inexplicable self-confidence was really outrageous.

Of course, Tian Fang helped her nephew to make connections and get married, and the target was her own niece, and she even charged a huge introduction fee of 100 yuan, which was also very, very outrageous.

Tian Fang's reputation in the village plummeted, and as a result, the entire family of the second branch of the old Shen family could not hold their heads up in the village, and they dared not go to places with more people.

As the weather got hotter, Shen Moer finally gathered enough materials to build a new house. It happened that her father's work at the kiln factory had come to an end, and the factory gave him several days off, so the father and daughter got together and prepared to start construction.

The main reason was that the house must be built before the autumn harvest, otherwise there would be no one to help with the work when the autumn harvest began.

The day before the start of construction.

Shen Moer, carrying a bamboo basket, met Fu Mingze and Zheng Jiamin at the foot of the mountain.

These days, you don't have to pay for hiring someone to help build a new house, but you have to provide food. After all, Shen Shaoyuan had only been working for less than two months. He could get some coupons for oil, salt, soy sauce and vinegar from Xu Weiguo, but he really couldn't get coupons for meat.

Shen Moer thought about it and thought that she could still go up the mountain to have a look. What if she came across pheasants or rabbits? Wouldn't that be enough for her to eat?

It didn't matter if she didn't come across any. She could pick some mushrooms, dig some wild vegetables, or get some bamboo shoots to add one or two dishes.

Don't underestimate the fact that she has only been here for about two months. Shen Moer has already understood the way of survival of the poor. The old ladies always say that if you don't have enough food and clothes, you will be poor if you don't plan ahead. As a poor person, you have to take into account every aspect of life.

As for why Fu Mingze was called along, if they really caught pheasants or wild rabbits, wouldn't he have to take the blame?

She was a weak woman who couldn't even lift a chicken.

That was the good thing about Fu Zhiqing, if you asked him to take the blame, he would do it, and he never asked why.

Zheng Jiamin who came along was a buy-one-get-one-free bonus -

he strongly requested to go along, and coincidentally, Shen Moer and Fu Mingze also felt that it was not appropriate for only the two of them to go up the mountain together.

"Just the three of us? Comrade Shen Moer, don't we need to call some other people, like those who are particularly familiar with the terrain, those who are particularly nimble, or those who have particularly good accuracy?"

Zheng Jiamin hinted wildly.

Ever since he ate the rabbit meat that Fu Mingze gave him, he could not forget the taste of braised rabbit meat. When he heard Fu Mingze say that he was going up the mountain, he hurriedly followed him.

Of course, he didn't think that Fu Mingze or Shen Moer could catch the rabbit. It looked like they didn't have such skills. As for himself, it was even more impossible.

So he wanted Shen Moer to call the person who took them to catch rabbits last time, so that they could also get some credit, right?

Shen Moer looked at Zheng Jiamin with a smile. It was obvious that this guy was a piece of cake without her saying it: "No need, just the three of us will try our luck."

Zheng Jiamin looked at Fu Mingze for help: "Mingze?"

Fu Mingze curled his lips: "Well, no need."

Zheng Jiamin: "..."

Lust makes people lose their minds, lust makes people lose their minds!

I didn't expect you, Fu Mingze, to be such a person!

But not long after, Zheng Jiamin discovered that he was the one who was "blinded by reason", it was him!
