The dark sky and the cool breeze blow away the heat in people's hearts.
The mountains and forests not far away are baring their fangs and claws, and they look very cold.
"Girl, can't you find your cat?" The owner of the farm house walked slowly, alternating deep and shallow steps.
Xia Mang nodded immediately, "Yes, it ran out to play when I came this morning, and it hasn't come back yet."
The proprietress smiled brightly, "Don't worry, little girl. Our cat often goes out for days at a time and doesn't come home. Sometimes it comes back with prey, just like people working outside."
"But... your cat grew up here and is familiar with this place. My cat is just a pet cat and is not as good as the Chinese rural cat." Xia Mang was in a tense state now. She was afraid that something would happen to Xiao Xingchen and also afraid that something would happen to Lu Fengting.
"That girl is right. Although the cats in your city are beautiful, they can't catch mice. But don't worry too much. Kittens are very smart. Besides, my old man has gone out to help you look for one. I think we'll find one soon."
The proprietress was a very warm-hearted person. She came to accompany Xia Mang because she was worried that she would be scared alone.
"Madam, I'd like to ask, it's so hot out here, are the snakes hibernating now? How dangerous would it be to go into the forest without them?"
"Hahaha, little girl, you are worried about your boyfriend, right? Don't worry, my old man is with him. Although there are those things in the mountains, they usually don't come out. We really don't have snake bites here, so don't worry too much."
When Xia Mang heard the proprietress say that no snake had ever bitten anyone here, he felt a little relieved for some reason.
For the first time, she felt useless. She had never lived in the mountains in either her past life or this life. Now she could not help in any way. The only thing she could do was not to be willful and follow.
"Little girl, don't be so sad. Although we are in the mountains, there are really no wild animals here. The elders often say that we have a mountain god here."
The proprietress gave Xia Mang a piece of watermelon and took one for herself. While eating, she told Xia Mang about the local customs and myths and legends.
The most popular legend is that there is a mountain god here.
The two of them were talking one while the other was listening, but the atmosphere was still very harmonious, and Xia Mang felt a lot more relaxed with the company of the proprietress.
Finally, around ten o'clock in the evening, Lu Fengding came back with Xiao Xingchen and the boss.
The moment Xia Mang saw Lu Feng stop, he immediately rushed over, "Lu Feng stop! Are you okay?"
Worried, he turned Lu Fengting over and over again.
Lu Fengting's expression was a little strange, but he still patiently comforted Xia Mang, "Don't worry, I'm not hurt, Xiao Xingchen is fine too. You must be scared, let's go back to the room quickly."
Then he turned around and thanked the boss and his wife.
After returning to their residence, Xia Mang stopped Lu Feng and said, "What's wrong with you? You look weird. Don't tell me you're fine."
Perhaps it was Xia Mang's worried expression that was too much, which made Lu Fengting laugh. "I'm really fine, how could I lie to you? But Xiao Xingchen brought us something back."
Little Xingchen heard someone mention its name and called out obediently, "Meow~"
As a poop scooper, I am actually very good.
Speaking of Little Xingchen, Xia Mang got angry and slapped the cat hard on the butt a few times. "You're naughty, you're so naughty! You dare to run around here when you're unfamiliar with the place. You think you're awesome, right? Will you dare to run around again next time?"
Little Star; "Meow meow meow~"
I went out to find good stuff for you, why are you hitting me?
Little Xingchen's fierce look made Xia Mang even more angry. "Xingchen, you think you're right to run around? And you dare to talk back to me?"
Xia Mang was so angry that her two big eyes almost popped up.
Lu Fengting smiled helplessly, and seeing that Xiao Xingchen was about to refute Xia Mang, he quickly covered Xiao Xingchen's mouth.
Little Xingchen, whose mouth was covered: Ah~ What kind of parents are these? This is too much. They actually covered my mouth.
"Ahem, Mangmang, this time Little Xingchen's trip out might actually bring us a lot of money."
Xia Mang was confused. Going out for fun and bringing in a large sum of money?
Lu Feng stopped to think about how he couldn't believe it when he first saw it. "Mangmang, get on the bed first and make sure it's steady. Even novels don't dare to write about it like this."
Xia Mang was amused by Lu Fengting's serious look, "Go ahead, I can handle it. I'm the eldest daughter of the Xia family after all, and it's not like I haven't seen a lot of money before."
Lu Feng stopped smiling. This time his smile was different from the previous ones. It was a little evil, making Xia Mang feel like she was about to indulge in his smile.
But before Xia Mang could speak, Lu Fengting took out a blood-red stone from his pocket.
Xia Mang initially thought it was just an ordinary, beautiful stone. When he picked it up and took a closer look, his hands began to tremble. "This is...is this a ruby?"
In her previous life, Xia Mang would definitely not recognize this thing, but last time Ruan Junhan gave her a ruby, saying it was a gift for his brother's wife.
At that time, Xia Mang had studied rubies carefully, and now he could recognize them at a glance.
"So... this is what Little Xingchen picked up?"
Xia Mang's voice was a little trembling. Who can go out and pick up a ruby?
Isn't this God's own son?
Lu Fengting nodded with difficulty, "Although I don't want to admit it, this was indeed discovered by Xiao Xingchen, and..."
