Chapter 103 Falling into the Water



After washing her face and combing her hair, she came to the place where Jiang Shubai was living.

As soon as she asked, she heard the hunter say that he had gone up the mountain with a few educated youths. Zhong Shuyi's heart sank when she heard this. Thinking of what the man had just said, she was unwilling to believe it just now, but now she believed it a little bit.

When she saw them coming down the mountain talking and laughing, Zhong Shuyi was so angry that her eyes turned red, especially when she saw Jiang Shubai chatting with Song Tanglan with a bright smile.

Song Tanglan and the others didn't expect to encounter such a thing just after coming down the mountain. They were embarrassed and at a loss.

It was Jiang Shubai who finally reacted, put away his smile and said, "I'm home, you guys go back first!"

"Okay, Jiang Zhiqing, we'll leave first." Sun Jianhua pulled Yu He, who wanted to stay and watch the gossip, and walked quickly forward. Seeing the two of them walking away, Song Tanglan and Su Tao couldn't stay even if they wanted to watch the gossip, so they could only follow the team.

"Brother Jiang, why did you go with them?"

"This is my business, none of your business." Jiang Shubai was holding a backpack and firewood with a sullen face, and was about to enter the house when he heard Zhong Shuyi's crying voice.

"Are you attracted to him? What's so good about him? We grew up together, and you've started to neglect me because of her. Uncle Jiang clearly asked you to take care of me."

When Jiang Shubai heard him mention his father, his expression suddenly became even uglier. His eyes were deep and without a trace of emotion. He turned around and said with a cold face.

"Zhong Shuyi, please understand your own position. Putting aside the fact that my adoptive father asked me to take care of you, I was just saying it casually. We're just neighbors. There are so many people in our alley who grew up with me. Do I have to take care of them all? Besides, it's none of your business who I like. If your father wasn't still useful to my adoptive father, do you think you'd still be able to show up in front of me now? Don't come looking for me in the future. We're not familiar with each other."

After saying that, he turned around and went back to the house, closing the gate behind him.

It blocked Zhong Shuyi's sight and also successfully extinguished her heart.

Zhong Shuyi returned to the house in a daze. She didn't expect that Brother Jiang had always been so annoying. She felt murderous intent in his eyes just now.

I like him so much, but he actually wants to kill me. Thinking of this, I can't help but burst into tears.

Since that day, whenever Su Tao and Song Tanglan met Zhong Shuyi, they would be frightened by his eyes.

When they finally reacted and met her gaze, they were both speechless. Zhong Shuyi looked as if someone had stolen her lover.

Besides, they just went up the mountain together as a team last time, not alone.

It's really annoying to have a venomous person staring at you all the time.

Su Tao was a little scared at first, and then she rolled her eyes at her.

It was just that a week had passed since the last time the two of them talked about something, and Song Tanglan and the others hadn't seen Zhong Shuyi come to see Jiang Shubai again. They looked at each other and saw some gossip in it.

However, they didn't feel comfortable asking Jiang Shubai, so they decided to go back and ask Yu He to find out. However, unexpectedly, Yu He didn't get any useful information, so the two of them could only let the matter go.

The days were spent going to work, going up the mountain, and digging wild vegetables. Two months passed in a flash. Except for the initial period of sowing, which was quite busy, the rest of the time working was not so tiring, except that the sun was getting bigger and bigger.

Song Tanglan couldn't stand the scorching sun. In order to avoid sunburn, she always wore a jacket to protect herself from the sun. She was reluctant to take it off even if it was very hot.

The truth is, her neck had been exposed to the sun for the entire afternoon, and when she got home, her entire neck was burning and red. If Song Tangcheng hadn't found her some aloe vera to apply on it, her neck might have been sunburned.

After this lesson, she never dared to expose her skin to the sun again.

That day, Sun Jianhua found wild duck eggs in the reeds by the river and told the three of them the good news. They planned to secretly pick up some wild duck eggs. If they were lucky, they might be able to catch a wild duck and roast it for food!

After hearing this, the four of them happily came to the reeds. Besides the four of them, Xiaohu and his friends were also here looking for wild duck eggs.

Xiaohu was also very happy to see the visitor.

"Aunt Lan, are you here looking for wild duck eggs too?"

"Yes, yes, Xiaohu, you have a good harvest!" Song Tanglan looked at the three wild duck eggs in his small backpack and praised happily.

"Hey, Aunt Lan, we often come here to look for wild duck eggs right after school, and this time we got the most!"

"yes!"

"That's amazing! Let's stop talking and see who can find more!"

"Okay, okay!"

When Song Tanglan saw Xiaohu and his friends breaking into the reeds again, he followed them to look for them, and the four of them acted separately.

Along the way, Song Tanglan paid close attention to his feet and the surrounding area. Not only that, he also paid attention to the reeds next to him, for fear of scratching his face.

Although Song Tanglan was very careful along the way, he had a good harvest. In a place covered with grass, he found a nest of wild duck eggs, a total of 5 eggs.

Song Tanglan carefully knocked on the side with a wooden stick, fearing that a snake would jump out. After finding that there were no other small animals, he picked up the wild duck eggs and put them into the backpack.

"What good luck."

Then he started banging and turning over the grass all the way.

This reed bed is very large, and villagers come here from time to time to look for wild duck eggs. However, most of them are children from the team, because they are small in size and it is easier for them to find them.

Not easily scratched by reeds on high places.

Song Tanglan picked up two wild duck eggs in another place. She had gained a lot and didn't plan to continue looking.
