The trees on Lion Rock have withered in winter, and the mountain paths have become dry and cracked due to the long period of no rain. The wind on the mountain whistles loudly and hurts the face.
There was plenty of time on the day, and Qian Chunhua looked around the surroundings as he walked.
Worried about the coming cold weather, villagers from Huanghualing also came to Shizishan in groups of two or three to chop firewood. However, most of these people were men, the main laborers in their families, and no women went up the mountain to chop firewood.
Some of these people showed mocking expressions when they saw Qian Chunhua, and secretly sneered in their hearts, "It's what she deserves. A woman who doesn't keep her husband's chastity has to make trouble to break off the relationship with her mother-in-law."
This group of people, represented by Zhang Qiurong's husband Ma Yubo, all hated Qian Chunhua's actions, which had set a bad start for Huanghualing.
Qian Chunhua's severance of ties with the Zhao family has slightly awakened the minds of all the female villagers in Huanghualing.
It turns out that being in the mother-in-law's house will not only lead to divorce.
You can also take the initiative to separate from your husband's family and sever ties with them.
Of course, in addition to people who hate Qian Chunhua, there are also people who admire Qian Chunhua. For example, the sons of Grandma Xu admire what Qian Chunhua does very much.
In Qian Chunhua, they seemed to see their own mother, who, when she was young, led them and their brothers to strive for self-improvement.
"Sister Chunhua, are you here to chop firewood?" asked Xu Jiang, the eldest son of the Xu family.
Qian Chunhua looked at him when she heard that. From her original memory, Qian Chunhua knew that this man was Granny Xu's eldest son.
Because of the last time when the engagement was broken off, Granny Xu spoke for him, Qian Chunhua had a good impression of the Xu family. "Brother Xu, I am here to chop wood. You guys are here to chop wood too."
Xu Jiang was a generous man. He smiled and invited Qian Chunhua, "Sister Chunhua, come with us. We are strong. We will chop wood and you can pick it up from under the tree."
Qian Chunhua appreciated Xu Jiang's kindness, but this meant she couldn't go up the mountain to fetch water, so she quickly refused, "Thank you, Brother Xu, I can go up the mountain to collect firewood, there is still plenty."
After saying this, Qian Chunhua was afraid that Xu Jiang would continue to invite her, so she quickened her pace and left without looking back.
Xu Jiang looked at Qian Chunhua's back with admiration, and said to his second brother Xu He beside him, "See, Chunhua is ambitious. When she encounters difficulties in the future, we will help her if we can."
Xu He nodded, he agreed with what his elder brother said.
Qian Chunhua herself did not expect that when she rejected Xu Jiang because of the space, she left the impression of self-improvement on them brothers.
This also laid the foundation for the Xu Jiang brothers to stand up for Qian Chunhua when she encountered trouble in the future.
Qian Chunhua was worried about meeting someone familiar again, so he didn't dare to stop along the way and ran straight to the spring on the top of the mountain.
At the top of Lion Rock, the wind was cold and sharp. Qian Chunhua felt it was even colder than yesterday. It seemed that the temperature had dropped significantly. Fortunately, the mountain spring was not frozen.
After checking all around and making sure that there was no one on the top of the mountain, Qian Chunhua took out a ton barrel from the space and placed it under the mountain spring to collect water.
While Li was fetching water, Qian Chunhua took out the electric saw from the space.
I have picked up all the fallen branches around here, and if I need firewood, I can only cut it from the trees. No tool is faster than a chainsaw.
Qian Chunhua stockpiled the chainsaws as weapons, but he never expected that they would be used in the battlefield.
Walking a little further away from the mountain spring, Qian Chunhua began to work, sawing off branches and storing them into the space.
Every ten minutes, he changed a bucket of water. He was busy like this until all the buckets in the connected space were filled.
Looking at the time in the space, it turned out to be past four o'clock in the afternoon, and Qian Chunhua was already starving.
While there was no one around, he took out a meat bun from the space and started eating it. After eating three in a row, he felt a little better.
Looking at the space full of buckets and firewood, Qian Chunhua smiled with contentment.
From now on, I will not be afraid of either severe cold or drought.
