Chapter 176 The Daughter Sold 40
When Qian Xiaosan heard what his aunt said, his panicked and anxious heart immediately calmed down.
He said goodbye to his aunt and just walked out of the Ge family’s courtyard, he saw Yuanchun coming down from the mountain.
He smiled and ran over like a Husky, "Sister, why didn't you ask me to go with you when you went to the mountain to pick mushrooms?"
He reached out and untied the basket on his sister's shoulders, put it on his back, and followed his sister back to his aunt's house.
Yuanchun said, "I wanted to eat pheasant mushroom soup, so I went for a walk in the mountains to try my luck. I didn't expect to actually hunt two pheasants."
"Okay, then next time you want to go up the mountain, call me to go with you. I'm worried about you going alone." Qian Xiaosan saw that his sister was so outstanding and worried that the scoundrels in the village would do something dirty to her. He planned to accompany his sister wherever she went in the future.
"Then let's go to the mountain after work tomorrow. It rained the past two days, and a lot of mushrooms have grown on the mountain. Let's pick some and dry them, and then mail some to our eldest and second brothers to eat."
"it is good."
Two big pheasants, one for stewing and the other for braising, were cooked. The Qian family was called over and they ate up all the food.
The next day, Qian Xiaosan and Yuanchun formed a team. The two of them took on a job worth twelve work points. They finished the work in less than half an afternoon, and then they went straight up the mountain with their backpacks on their backs.
In the fields, there was an old lady who had been rejected by a marriage proposal. When she saw Yuanchun and Qian Xiaosan going up the mountain together, she felt resentful and could not help but gossiping, "That girl Ge Yuanchun is with Qian Xiaosan every day. I don't know what they are doing as a single man and a single woman."
"They are brother and sister, what can they do?"
"Bah, they are not siblings, so why can't they have that kind of relationship? Look, Qian Xiaosan's eyes are almost fixed on Yuanchun girl."
"They are siblings with a good relationship. They grew up together. I heard they were desk mates in school. It's normal for them to go to the mountains to pick mushrooms together."
A woman who was on good terms with Qian Xiaoying looked at the chattering lady with disdain and said, "Niu Dan's mother, I heard that you went to Xiaoying's house to propose marriage yesterday, but was rejected by Xiaoying. Are you holding a grudge and deliberately making up rumors here to slander Yuanchun and the third son of the Qian family?"
"Bah, why should I slander them? Who do I think I don't have eyes? I know they are related just by the way they flirt with each other. Fortunately, my proposal failed, otherwise my Niu Dan would marry a slut and would be so angry that he would die." "Who are you talking about, Niu Dan's mother? You have a vicious mouth. Yuanchun has only been back to the village for a few days, and you are spreading rumors about her innocence. If you have the guts, say it in front of Xiaoying and her husband, and they will beat you to death."
"I am telling the truth……"
……
While Yuanchun and Qian Xiaosan were happily catching wild rabbits on the mountain, the Qian and Ge families and the Niu family at the foot of the mountain started fighting.
When Yuanchun and Qian Xiaosan happily carried a basket of mushrooms home, they saw that the Ge family's yard was full of people.
The Qian and Ge families were both in a miserable state, with wounds all over their faces.
There were several bloody scratches on Ge Sangen's face.
Qian Xiaoying's hair was also disheveled, like a madman, and there was a break on her scalp.
The clothes were also torn.
The old couple of the Qian family were not in much better condition. Old man Qian's hand was sprained and swollen, and Mrs. Qian's mouth corner was broken and was still bleeding.
"Dad, Mom, Grandpa, Grandma, did you have a fight with someone?" Yuanchun's face darkened. She threw the backpack to Qian Xiaosan and went over to check the injuries of the elders.
Fortunately, they were all superficial injuries.
Just apply some medicine and it will be fine.
