Chapter 49 The Third Trip into the Mountains
"Tell me! What did Third Brother take you to do so late?" Qin Dajiang was not easily fooled. He pressed closer to Qin Yingxue and asked with a serious face.
"Second Brother, can I keep this a secret for now?" Qin Yingxue asked Qin Dajiang with a smile.
Qin Dajiang stared intently at Qin Yingxue for a few seconds, then finally nodded: "Since you don't want to talk about it, I won't force you. But, Yingxue, I'm your second brother. Although I'm not very educated and not very bright, I'm still a bit more clever than your third brother."
Whether it was her imagination or not, Qin Yingxue could hear a hint of jealousy in Qin Dajiang's words.
No, no, no, Qin Dajiang is the most rational and shrewd of the three brothers; he only cares about himself.
"I understand," Qin Yingxue replied obediently. "When I can't handle it anymore, the first person I'll go to is my second brother."
Qin Dajiang sighed inwardly as he watched Qin Yingxue's obsequious act: "It's late, you should get some rest!"
After Qin Dajiang finished speaking, he turned around and went back into the house.
Qin Yingxue followed them back into the house, closed the door, put her hands behind her head, and lay down on the bed.
Jiang Linlin and Qin Ergou were in cahoots, and it wasn't difficult for them to turn the tables on each other.
What's making her somewhat uneasy right now is Qin Dajiang.
She had a feeling that Qin Dajiang had discovered something and was waiting for her to speak up.
She didn't tell him tonight, and she could sense his disappointment.
However, among the three brothers, Qin Dahe was the most righteous and righteous, and wholeheartedly stood on his side.
In other words, the only person in the Qin family she could trust and rely on the most was Qin Dahe.
As for Qin Dahai, his scales clearly tipped the moment Jiang Linlin returned.
Qin Yingxue only had some things she didn't understand about Qin Dajiang.
But one thing she was certain of was that he was still on her side more in the matter of Jiang Linlin.
Although the three brothers saved all the money from Sanghuang's harvest for themselves, saying it was for their own dowry.
But apart from the 4500 yuan he received for building the house, only Qin Dahe roughly knows how much was left.
But with Qin Dajiang's intelligence, he could roughly estimate how much money he had saved...
Thinking about this, Qin Yingxue's mind became even more confused.
If she couldn't figure it out, she wouldn't think about it anymore. Qin Yingxue closed her eyes and prepared to rest.
She plans to go into the mountains again tomorrow, and Song Yanchuan will be back the day after tomorrow. After that, she won't have another chance to go into the mountains.
Besides, staying at home and seeing Jiang Linlin around every day is also very annoying.
The next day, Qin Yingxue got up early, greeted Zhou Lanhua who was making breakfast in the kitchen, and went outside.
They took the same secluded path that Qin Dahe had led them on last time. It was remote and they were unlikely to encounter anyone. After a smooth journey, they arrived at the deep mountains at 10 a.m.
Without taking a break, Qin Yingxue took the Swift Wind Pill and headed straight for the stream on the fifth mountain.
There was a herd of cattle and sheep there, and that was her target this time.
Beef is edible, and if you're lucky enough to find bezoar, you can sell it for a lot of money.
At eleven o'clock, a herd of cattle and sheep were leisurely grazing on the water plants by the stream. Qin Yingxue unleashed her skills, and like a gust of wind, she lightly touched the cattle and sheep and instantly put them into her space. Her companions didn't even have a chance to react before lying in the space, completely unconscious.
After catching all the cattle and sheep on the fifth mountain, Qin Yingxue rested briefly, ate a piece of bread, drank a carton of milk, took another dose of the Gale Pill, and then rushed towards the twelfth mountain.
Following the same method, after catching all the cattle, Qin Yingxue turned and ran away when she saw a large, striped tiger running rapidly towards her.
This thing is deadly. Even with her amazing abilities, she dared not be careless and risk her life.
Once they reached a safe place, Qin Yingxue broke out in a cold sweat.
Seeing that it was still early, Qin Yingxue hunted a few pheasants and rabbits, roasted one of the pheasants, and rested for a while.
Having filled her stomach, Qin Yingxue didn't linger and went straight out of the mountain.
As we passed the Qin Dahe trap, we heard splashing sounds coming from inside.
Qin Yingxue stopped and, after seeing the few small prey inside, thought for a moment and finally pulled the pheasants and rabbits up.
After leaving the mountain, Qin Yingxue did not return to Qin Village, but went directly to the county town.
After visiting Qian Xiaolian and leaving her a wild rabbit, I went to the supply and marketing cooperative, bought some snacks from that era, and then returned to Qin Village.
I was planning to buy meat, but unfortunately I arrived too late and they were out of stock.
When they returned to Qin Village, Zhou Lanhua and Fang Xiaoye were cooking dinner.
Seeing Qin Yingxue return, Fang Xiaoye quickly pulled her to the kitchen and whispered, "Yingxue, Dajiang asked me to tell you that Jiang Linlin spent the whole day at the Song family's house, so you're aware of what's going on."
"I understand." Qin Yingxue nodded and took out two packets of pastries: "Sister-in-law, these two packets of pastries are for Que'er and Xiao Tangyuan."
“No need, you eat it yourself…” Zhou Lanhua quickly refused.
“Yes! We haven’t finished the snacks you bought last time!” Fang Xiaoye added from the side.
Just as Qin Yingxue was about to say something, Zhu Huiwen's voice came from outside.
"Yingxue, are you home?"
Qin Yingxue walked out of the kitchen and saw Jiang Linlin accompanying Zhu Huiwen in the yard.
Her eyes lit up, and she went to greet her: "Auntie, what brings you here?"
"I stewed some meat, I brought it for you to try." Zhu Huiwen said as she lifted the basket and brought out a large pot of braised pork.
The braised pork has a vibrant color and an enticing aroma; it looks incredibly delicious.
She heard the sound of swallowing saliva. Qin Yingxue saw that Que'er was watching longingly with drool dripping down her face. She reached out and took the food, smiling, "Thank you, Auntie."
"Yan Chuan is coming back tomorrow, let's go home and have dinner together," Zhu Huiwen said with a smile.
"Okay," Qin Yingxue replied without hesitation.
Jiang Linlin, who was standing to the side, had a charming smile on her face, but in reality, her right hand was clenched into a fist, and her nails were already digging into her palm.
I spent the whole day accompanying the old woman around, putting on a smiling face, but in reality, even though the meat was cooked, I didn't even let her try a single piece.
Now, they've brought Qin Yingxue a huge bowl of food.
I used to visit the Song family often, and I thought Zhu Huiwen had been good to me enough.
Today really opened her eyes; she realized that true kindness comes from the heart.
How can I prevent her from getting angry?
After delivering the meat, Zhu Huiwen was about to go home. Qin Yingxue took two bags of the pastries she had bought that day, saw Zhu Huiwen out of the yard, and then returned.
Dinner was ready, and soon the Qin family members finished work and went home to eat.
Upon seeing Qin Yingxue return, Qin Dahe immediately asked with concern, "Little sister, did you go to the county town today?"
"Yeah! I bought some things," Qin Yingxue mumbled in response.
Seeing that she was unwilling to say more, everyone fell silent.
The atmosphere was a bit awkward, and even the braised pork didn't smell good anymore.
After finishing her meal, Qin Yingxue went back to her room and, without hesitation, bought an automatic slaughtering machine to slaughter all the cattle for the day.
Perhaps because of the large quantity, they harvested eight bezoars.
