"We'll spend the night on the mountain tonight. We'll reach Xiaoqingshan in half an hour. This mountain is huge, so if we stay hidden, there shouldn't be any danger."
After Pei Zichuan finished speaking, he handed Lin Jiao a steamed bun.
"You need to eat something first. I need you to keep vigil with me and other people from the village tonight."
At this time, someone must keep watch, and someone must go out to check the situation and come back immediately to report if there is danger.
Pei Zichuan has seen Lin Jiao's Kung Fu skills, and they are better than his. With her guarding him on the first night, everything will be fine.
"Um!"
Lin Jiao took the steamed bun without politeness and took a bite. Then she took out a pickle stick from the bag and took a bite.
Jiang asked Luoluo to make this thing. It is really convenient and easy to cook.
Pei Zichuan: "..." Suddenly he felt that he couldn't swallow the steamed bun in his hand.
This woman...
If he shared his steamed buns with her, how many pickle sticks would she be willing to give him?
Lin Jiao glanced at him and went to find Jiang with the pickle sticks.
Women were not allowed to keep vigil in the village, so Pei Zichuan asked her to work more and give her a steamed bun. He also wanted to eat her pickle sticks. Go ahead and dream.
"Mom, let's have something to eat."
There is food in the baggage of the bamboo raft, so there is no need for Lin Jiao to bring it to Jiang and the others.
After Lin Jiao finished eating the steamed buns, she went to lead the mule so that Jin Yu could eat.
Along the way, Jin Yu didn't talk much. Apart from rushing, he was helping Lin Jiao with work, or he was holding a knife and didn't know what he was thinking.
After walking for more than half an hour, we arrived at Xiaoqingshan.
The bamboo raft couldn't go up the mountain, so Lin Jiao took it down and threw it aside.
There should be some bamboo here. She will get another bamboo raft early tomorrow morning.
Many people on the road saw them going up the mountain and followed them up the mountain to hide. However, these people saw that many of them had knives in their hands and did not dare to approach them.
As soon as they stopped, Jin Yu said: "Sister-in-law, I'm going to collect some firewood. It's very cold in the mountains at night. Building a fire will help keep you warm."
Jiang nodded.
"Go, be careful not to go too far."
The most indispensable thing on the mountain is firewood.
"Jin Yu, find someone to go with you. Don't go alone."
Lin Jiao was afraid of an accident, so she gave an instruction.
"I know, sister-in-law."
After Jin Yu left, Lin Jiao first put the things away, then took out the iron pot placed on the mule and poured some water into it.
After Jin Yu comes back from collecting firewood, he can boil some hot water and cook some porridge, but he can't eat dry food all the time.
"Let's go with my brother."
Xiaoyan and Luoluo stood up.
They can't do anything else, but they can collect firewood.
Lin Jiao originally didn't want them to go, but Pei Zichuan suddenly came over and said, "I'm going to collect firewood too, so I'll take them there."
With Pei Zichuan by his side, there's no need to worry about anything happening to them.
Lin Jiao nodded and stopped caring.
After Pei Zichuan left, Lin Jiao helped Jiang sit on a stone and let her rest. She went to find a few stones to make a simple stove so that she could put the pot on it.
She had just taken a few steps when she felt some men staring at her, which made her feel uncomfortable.
Lin Jiao turned her head and met the eyes of Pei Zichuan's sister, Pei Xue.
Pei Xue did not expect that Lin Jiao would suddenly turn around and be caught peeping, but she did not feel guilty. Instead, she glared at Lin Jiao fiercely and cursed in a low voice: "Shameless, seducing brother Pei Yuan doesn't count."
, you even seduced my brother, a woman like you should be in a pig cage."
"boom!"
The stone in Lin Jiao's hand instantly fell at Pei Xue's feet.
"ah!"
Pei Xue screamed in fright and sat down on the ground.
"Watch your own mouth. If you let me see it spit out feces again, I will cut off your talking tongue."
Lin Jiao's tone was cold and dangerous.
She is not the kind of person who can tolerate it. Anyone who messes with her will be beaten back on the spot.
"you……"
Pei Xue cried angrily, covered her face and got up and ran away.
After a while.
As soon as Lin Jiao's simple cooking stove was finished, Pei Xue's sister-in-law came to see Jiang with a crying Pei Xue.
"Auntie, there are things I've wanted to say for a long time. I know you have a good temper and don't care about your wife here no matter what she does. But I can't. My parents, Xiaoxue, are a daughter who cannot bear to be wronged.
"
Jiang had no idea what was happening.
Hearing the words of the eldest daughter-in-law of the Li Zheng family, Mrs. Zhang, she looked confused, "Daughter-in-law Zishan, what are you talking about?
Who bullied Xiaoxue?"
Mrs. Zhang knew that her mother-in-law was very kind to the Pei family, and she did not dare to speak too harshly to Mrs. Jiang. However, she was really angry when Pei Xue was frightened into tears.
Therefore, her voice became a little more sinister, "I am not your good daughter-in-law Lin Jiao. She just threw a stone at our Xiaoxue and almost killed our Xiaoxue."
"impossible."
Jiang shook his head without asking, "My Jiaojiao used to have a bad temper, but she has changed now. There must be a misunderstanding. Wife-in-law Zishan, don't be angry first. I'll ask Jiaojiao first."
Lin Jiao was not far away, and she heard everything Jiang said.
Such a good mother, why is she Pei Yuan's?
It would be nice if she was her own mother.
"Jiaojiao?"
Jiang called out, and Lin Jiao threw away the firewood in her hand and walked over.
"Mom, what's wrong?"
Lin Jiao pretended not to know anything. She wanted to hear how Pei Xue complained to her sister-in-law Zhang.
"Your sister-in-law Zishan said that you had a misunderstanding with Xiaoxue just now, and you almost hit her with a stone. Is that true?"
What Zhang said about bullying Pei Xue turned into a misunderstanding when it came to Jiang.
Jiang's preference for her is blatant.
"Mom, this is what happened, but I don't know how sister Xiaoxue told your sister-in-law?
Have you told your sister-in-law that you said that I seduced your brother Pei Yuan, and now I am seducing your brother Zichuan, so I should invade the pig cage?"
After Lin Jiao finished speaking, before Zhang could speak, Jiang became angry.
"Did you say this, Xiaoxue?
How can you say that to our Jiaojiao? My Ayuan is Jiaojiao’s husband, so how can you seduce her?
Your fourth brother Zichuan has been taking care of us all the way, but so many people are watching. My Jiaojiao and him are innocent. Are you bullying me, an old woman who is blind and can’t see anything, and arranged my daughter-in-law like this?
?
Are you trying to ruin her reputation?"
"How much hatred does our Pei family have against you to make you say such vicious words to my Jiaojiao?"
Honest people don't get angry very often, but once they do get angry it can be very serious.
Jiang's stern questioning attracted Li Zheng's family and several other families nearby.
Mrs. Zhang did not expect that there was such a thing. Pei Xue came back crying and said that Lin Jiao hit her with a stone because Lin Jiao often bullied Xiaoxue in the past. Mrs. Zhang thought that Lin Jiao deliberately bullied Xiaoxue this time and did not ask anything.
, so he took Pei Xue to find Lin Jiao.
"Xiaoxue, is what Lin Jiao said true?"
Zhang asked.
When Pei Xue saw so many people looking at her, she lowered her head and cried with red eyes, not daring to say anything.
