Chapter 244 No, no, it won't work.
Chapter 244 No, no, it won't work.
But the occasion isn't right, so I can't ask that question.
When Lin Cai heard that they were really leaving and that Xiao Yuanlian wanted to go with them, she had to confirm with her several times. Once she was sure that Xiao Yuanlian really wanted to go with them, Lin Cai nodded.
"I won't ask where you're going, but since you've taken the person away, you have to protect them..."
Hearing this, Honglin's lips twitched. She had thought the woman was telling them to be careful, or that she couldn't stay outside and that they could come back.
But to their surprise, the woman only asked them to protect the girl, Xiaolingdang.
Hua Niang heard this too, and she nodded: "Don't worry, I, Hua Niang, am not such an irresponsible person. Now that I've taken her away, I will definitely protect her well."
The five people left just like that. When Lin Bao heard the news and ran over, they had no idea where they had gone.
He wanted to ask Lin Cai if she knew where they had gone, but the words stuck in his throat and he didn't know how to ask!
Seeing his hesitant expression, Scarface rolled his eyes and said, "You don't even try to do your own thing, no wonder you're still single!"
"What right do you have to laugh at me? Aren't you single too?"
"Yeah, I'm single, but I'm rich! I won't be single anymore after next year!"
He's found himself a wife, and as long as the house is finished next spring, he can bring her home.
Living in a new house and sleeping with a new wife, just thinking about it makes me feel so happy!
When Scarface said he had found him a wife, Lin Bao rolled his eyes. He thought this guy surnamed Mao was definitely daydreaming.
With his current appearance, looking so fierce and menacing, what girl would be interested in him? Even if a girl were interested in him, would she really be able to marry him next spring?
It's still snowing outside, so we can't plant anything. If it keeps snowing until after the Lunar New Year, then next year will definitely be another tough year.
Given this situation, which family wouldn't have the inclination and energy to hold a wedding for their daughter?
They're too busy finding food to fill their stomachs, let alone having time for a happy occasion.
Two unmarried men were verbally attacking each other in the courtyard when Gu Dachui, who was married, walked between them.
Scarface and Lin Bao saw Gu Dachui walking through the middle, and they both called out to him at the same time, "Dachui."
"Huh? What's wrong? Is something the matter?"
Gu Dachui stopped when he heard the sound and turned around to look at the two people on his left and right.
The two waved their hands, saying, "Forget it, you can't answer that question. Let's go, let's go, let's go quickly!"
Gu Dachui found their conversation a bit strange, but he still obediently left their battlefield.
What they really wanted to ask was who would get married first. Lin Bao thought it would be him, and Scarface also thought it would be him.
Both of them felt they should have gone first, but neither agreed with the other's opinion, so they wanted to find someone to help them decide who went first.
So the two of them called out to Gu Dachui, who was passing by in the middle, but when they saw Gu Dachui's dumbfounded look, they instantly didn't want to ask the question anymore.
That silly guy already has a wife, but neither of them asks her that question anymore. Isn't that embarrassing?
On the other side, Little Round Face said she would take Hua Niang and the others to the mountain. After leaving Gu Family Village, they really went up the mountain.
Having reached the halfway point of the mountain, Honglin looked at the path above and said, "How much longer! I don't want to walk anymore, my feet are protesting, I need to sit down and rest for a while!"
"Sister Honglin, it's getting late. If we don't leave now, it will be even more difficult to travel at night!"
The speaker was Hongxiu. She was a little scared on the mountain. It was alright during the day, but at night... Hongxiu didn't dare to imagine what would happen.
Hua Niang also wanted to get up as soon as possible, not just because it was getting dark, but because it was snowing.
It wasn't snowing when they left, but now it's suddenly starting to snow lightly.
Fortunately, it's not too big yet, so we can keep going. But if we delay any longer, and it gets dark, it will probably be even more difficult to walk.
Red Phosphorus understood, and in the end, he could only grit his teeth, lean on a stick, and continue climbing.
Cui Dazhu asked the old lady in the kitchen to fry a small dish of peanuts for him. He had just taken out his treasured peanuts and taken a couple of sips, but before he could even put them to his lips, someone stumbled in from outside.
"Brother Dazhu, people from the mountains have come down."
"Who's here? Can't you speak properly? Didn't I tell you all not to stutter, no matter what, you have to speak clearly? Why didn't you remember?"
"Er Gouzi, come here, straighten your tongue this time, and slowly tell me what happened. You must straighten your tongue and explain it to me clearly, do you hear me?"
After Cui Dazhu finished speaking, he picked up a small wine cup and was about to bring it to his lips when Liu Ergou, who had come to report, took a deep breath and then shouted loudly, "People are coming from down the mountain!"
"We're almost at the door now, Brother Dazhu, what should we do?"
"So what if they're here? Why make such a fuss?"
“Those who are able to come up the mountain at this time must be villagers who have nowhere else to go. You should arrange a place for them, and let them decide for themselves whether they want to stay or leave.”
Recently, quite a few people have come to the mountain. Some have stayed, and some have left, but he hasn't insisted on any of them.
Whether someone chooses to stay or leave is their own business and has nothing to do with him.
Besides, they're not real bandits; they can't just force people to stay here.
After Cui Dazhu finished speaking, he noticed that Liu Ergou was still standing there, so he looked up at him.
"What are you still standing there for? Hurry up and go down and make arrangements. It's almost dark outside. If you don't make arrangements soon, I'll have them stay at your house tonight."
Upon hearing this, Liu Ergou trembled in fright. He looked at Cui Dazhu in horror and said, "Boss, you must be joking. How can they stay in my house?"
"No, no, absolutely not! If we stay at his house, the whole mountain will probably be blown up by tomorrow morning!"
Upon hearing Liu Ergou say no, Cui Dazhu frowned: "Why not?"
"If we have nowhere to stay, and we can't stay at your place, are you expecting us to sleep in the fields?"
When Cui Dazhu said he wanted to sleep at his house again, Liu Ergou could only say with a long face, "They're all a bunch of women, how can they stay with me?!"
