However, I don't know what my older brother has been up to lately; I haven't seen him at all.
As for Shen Banxia, she was really annoyed by the villagers' questions. Good heavens, why are they still so enthusiastic? Besides, why ask the person involved in this matter instead of asking her directly? She decided to take advantage of her rest time and go up the mountain to check.
Zhoujiazhuang is so far from the commune, and there are no bicycles. If someone gets a headache or fever, they have to rely on themselves. It's a good opportunity to go to the back mountain to collect some medicinal herbs.
However, Shen Banxia looked at the person blocking her way and asked, "What do you want from me?"
Zhou Mingjiao didn't know why she had stopped Shen Banxia so suddenly, and asked with a forced smile, "Shen Zhiqing, do you know where Su Zhiqing is?"
"have no idea".
Zhou Mingjiao choked for a moment, then made conversation by asking, "Um, is Xu, the educated youth, at the educated youth settlement?"
"Can't you go see for yourself? What exactly do you want from me?"
Zhou Mingjiao looked at Shen Banxia apologetically, "It's like this, I have something I want to talk to Su Zhiqing about, but as you know, I don't get along with Xu Zhiqing. So I wanted to ask you to pass on a message that I need to talk to him about something in the back mountain."
Shen Banxia was stunned and refused directly, "I don't have time, you should go find someone else."
Zhou Mingjiao clearly hadn't expected this answer. "How could you do this?"
Shen Banxia said bluntly, "I don't want to know or get involved in what's between you two. I don't want to deal with the crazy Xu Wenzhu."
Zhou Mingjiao was speechless, but deep down she felt that Shen Banxia was too heartless. After all, her father was the brigade leader.
Aren't you afraid of being retaliated against by your own father?
Seeing Zhou Mingjiao standing there in a daze, he said, "Alright, if there's nothing else, I'll be going now."
Watching Shen Banxia's departing figure, Zhou Mingjiao stomped her foot, feeling that this educated youth Shen was really too hateful.
For some reason, she always felt that Shen Banxia was quite similar to her annoying older brother.
Shen Banxia was unaware of Zhou Mingjiao's thoughts; she was currently happily gathering herbs.
However, she also noticed that almost all the ones on the mountainside behind the mountain had already been picked, and she didn't know who had picked them.
Perhaps they were having too much fun picking the herbs, because they unknowingly wandered deeper into the back of the mountain.
"Quickly, get out of the way!"
Shen Banxia subconsciously stepped aside, looked over, and couldn't help but gasp. Holy crap, a wild boar, a wild boar with tusks!
"Mommy!" Shen Banxia immediately climbed up the tree. Luckily, she hadn't lost her skill and quickly climbed up.
After taking a closer look, they realized that the wild boar was injured and was chasing after the man. Upon closer inspection, they recognized him as Zhou Mingqian, the famous eldest son of the brigade leader.
The most common complaints are that he's never satisfied with anything he eats, he's useless at everything he does, he's a spendthrift, and he's a major obstacle to finding a wife.
Behind his back, some people say that he's just a gigolo who lives off women.
Just as the wild boar's tusks were about to hit Zhou Mingqian's buttocks, Shen Banxia threw the basket she was carrying directly onto the wild boar, which finally relieved the pressure.
However, this also drew the wild boar's attention to Shen Banxia.
The impact began with a series of loud crashes against the tree where Chen Banxia was.
Shen Banxia felt as if she were swaying in the wind, her whole body out of her control.
Sensing that no wild boar was chasing him, Zhou Mingqian saw that the tree where Chen Banxia was was about to give up. He cheered himself up, gripped his machete, and resolutely headed towards the direction of the wild boar.
Seeing this, Shen Banxia said, "Don't come any closer, I'm fine here."
Zhou Mingqian just felt that Shen Zhiqing was too kind.
Filled with heroic spirit, he chopped the wild boar's rump with his machete. With a "whoop," the boar cried out in pain and began to thrash about wildly.
The pinellia in the tree was clearly visible; the wild boar was starting to go berserk.
He let out a deep sigh and then slid down from the tree.
He picked up the machete that had been scattered on the ground, and with a leap, jumped directly onto the wild boar.
The machete in his hand went straight for the most vulnerable part of her neck, and blood spurted out, spraying all over Chen Banxia's face.
Luckily, I had seen someone slaughter a pig before.
Zhou Mingqian just stared blankly, thinking that he was going to die in the mouth of a wild boar today, but now, he was being dealt with so easily?
As expected of a fairy!
Shen Banxia had no idea what Zhou Mingqian was thinking. Looking at the dead wild boar on the ground, she beckoned to Zhou Mingqian, "What are you going to do with this?"
Zhou Mingqian snapped out of his daze, "This is what you hunted, so of course it's yours to do with."
Shen Banxia didn't want to go through all that trouble, so she asked him directly, "Do you have a solution? If you do, I'll give you half, and you can just give me your share later."
Zhou Mingqian certainly had a solution, after all, he frequently dealt with the black market.
He said with a serious expression, "If you trust me, leave it to me. Don't worry, I will definitely handle it well for you. As for the half you mentioned, I definitely won't take it. If you hadn't saved my life, I would be dead by now."
"It's up to you," Shen Banxia said, disliking trouble.
However, thinking about what had been exposed, she couldn't help but add, "There are some things I hope you'll keep quiet about."
Zhou Mingqian said he understood.
There was no way around it; the impression from just now was too profound. The wild boar that had been stabbed in the neck didn't die immediately; instead, it went even more berserk. He knew that when a wild boar was struggling in its death throes, it was quite strong.
Who would have thought that the seemingly delicate fairy in his eyes could kill the raging wild boar with just a few punches?
At that moment, his eyes lit up with envy, wishing he had that much strength.
Now that he heard the fairy say not to reveal her great strength, he was naturally willing.
There was also a secret sense of pride in him, a secret he shared with the fairy.
Seeing that Zhou Mingqian was willing to handle it, Shen Banxia was somewhat satisfied. She looked at him and beckoned to him, "Come here, let me treat your wound."
Since the biggest secret has already been exposed, and considering that this person at least has a conscience, we should still treat his wounds. It's not a good look to have blood all over his body.
Fortunately, she had picked some herbs that could stop bleeding, and handed them to him, saying, "Chew them up and apply them to your wound."
Zhou Mingqian agreed without hesitation.
Shen Banxia nodded in satisfaction. Luckily, this person didn't whine, otherwise she wouldn't have bothered with him.
Looking at her clothes and face splattered with blood, Shen Banxia had a headache. She didn't know how to explain it when she got back.
Well, let's just take it one step at a time.
