Hua Zhaolu heard the follow-up messages conveyed by Ye Shu one after another, and finally his curiosity was satisfied.
She is also very busy now, busy going into the mountains to pick.
Autumn has officially arrived, the leaves have turned golden yellow, falling in large tracts, and all kinds of nuts in the mountains are ready to be picked.
Pine nuts, hazelnuts, walnuts, chestnuts, and various medicinal materials.
Others had no time and were busy with the autumn harvest, but Hua Zhao and Grandpa were very free. They went up the mountain in the morning and down the mountain in the evening. Under normal circumstances, they carried half a basket of things down the mountain. Sometimes they were unlucky and had to carry the bottom of the basket back.
Of course this is all an illusion...
In fact, they would empty a few baskets of things every day, secretly take a small road, come back from the mountain behind their home, hide the things in the warehouse, and then carry a small amount of things home.
This was Hua Qiang's idea.
Otherwise, everyone works to earn work points and has no time to go into the mountains. They harvest a lot of big baskets and small baskets first, and are hated by others.
No matter how popular you are, you can't be such a disaster.
Seeing that the two "old, weak, sick and disabled" were not working and the harvest was so poor, no one was jealous. Instead, they came to comfort them and brought them things when they went into the mountains.
On this day, Hua Zhao came back first by transporting things by himself.
This is usually the case, she transports it back and forth, and grandpa picks it on the spot.
She saw that sneaky figure again.
She has discovered it twice recently. Someone was wandering around the hill behind her house, looking at her yard, and then left after a while.
She recognized that it was Hua Siniu's daughter-in-law, Wang Xiufen.
She didn't want to meet her before, so she waited until she left before showing up. This time Wang Xiufen waited longer and seemed to be in a hurry, so she decided to meet her.
She put the basket behind the tree and came out: "Aunt Siniu, are you looking for me?"
Suddenly someone spoke from behind, which startled Wang Xiufen. She suddenly turned around and found that it was Hua Zhao, and she was relieved.
"You scared me to death..." Wang Xiufen whispered, covering her chest. What she did was inherently dangerous, and she did it with her heart in mind.
"What's the matter, aunt?" Hua Zhao asked again.
Wang Xiufen didn't have time to say anything else. She looked around nervously to make sure there was no one, then whispered: "You and your grandpa don't want to go anywhere recently, just stay at home! Also lock the door at night.
!Be careful, there is a thief!”
Her expression showed that she knew in advance that a thief was coming...
Hua Zhao asked: "Can I avoid thieves by staying at home?"
Wang Xiufen was stunned for a moment, knowing that she understood. Her expression was complicated and hesitant: "I don't know this either, but in the past few days, there have been thieves who have had your idea and followed you into the mountains."
In the past few days, sometimes it was Hua Daniu who made excuses for not going to work, and sometimes it was Hua Siniu who made excuses for not going to work, but they didn't stay at home and didn't know what they were doing.
Wang Xiufen also knew that Hua Zhao and Hua Qiang had gone into the mountains, so she had some suspicions that they were following them and causing an accident.
However, Hua Zhao is lucky and has not been found in the past few days.
What she didn't know was that it wasn't good luck, but good lying.
The two of them were "old, weak, sick and disabled", so they looked for random things on the outskirts of the mountains, but they didn't gain much.
In fact, they entered deep mountains.
The mountains are so big and there are so many routes that outsiders can’t find the normal ones, and they can’t all go in together.
Anyway, Hua Zhao didn't find anyone following him nearby in the past few days.
"Is there anything else you want to say?" Hua Zhao asked.
Wang Xiufen lowered her head, bit her lip and said, "Don't tell anyone, I said it." After saying that, she left with a blushing face.
It was her family that wanted to harm her. Although she came here to report the news, what was the shame of it? What if Hua Zhao couldn't escape and was killed? Their whole family, including her, would be innocent?
Hua Zhao watched her disappear, smiled, turned around and hurried to chase his grandfather.
She suddenly realized that it was no longer safe to leave her grandfather alone in the mountains.
