Early the next morning, just after breakfast, Yu Xiaolian avoided Yu Changhe and Sun, secretly put on black contact lenses for herself, took the clothes she had changed out of yesterday, and went to the river.

Fortunately, everyone in the village avoided her in the past, and no one except the Yu family had ever looked carefully into her eyes.

She knew in her heart that Jiang Lin must be waiting for her at the foot of the mountain, but she just didn't want to go. Thinking of Jiang Lin's behavior yesterday, she became extremely angry.

She fell into the hole he dug, and it was natural for him to get her out. Why should she repay him?

Maybe it's because the river water is too cold in the morning. There's no one at the river now. Only Yu Xiaolian is washing clothes.

It had been several days since Yu Xiaolian came here, but she hadn't really seen what the original owner looked like. Out of curiosity, she took a look at the river.

Well, she has good facial features, big eyes, a small cherry mouth, and a delicate nose. However, she is a little darker and a little thinner. Yu Xiaolian is quite satisfied with the appearance of this body.

If the original owner was not good-looking, Jun Mobai would not have accepted her as his concubine. Later, he favored her. Although there was a reason for being threatened by the original owner, but thinking about it, if the original owner was an ugly monster, Jun Mobai would not have said it.

.

Yu Xiaolian was not used to the clothes-pounding pestle that Sun and the others used, so she rubbed the clothes little by little with her hands. Although the river water was a bit cold, fortunately it was still summer, so it was still bearable.

After Yu Xiaolian finished washing her clothes, she picked up the wooden basin and planned to go home. When she was halfway there, she saw Jiang Lin leaning on a tree in front of him with his arms folded. It looked like he was undoubtedly waiting for her.

Just as Yu Xiaolian was about to turn a blind eye and just walk over, Jiang Lin suddenly said, "This is how you repay your savior? You are truly a ruthless little nemesis."

Yu Xiaolian stopped and turned around, "Even if you didn't come yesterday, I could have gone out by myself. It just took some effort. It won't cost me my life."

Jiang Lin stepped forward and approached Yu Xiaolian, "So, you promised me yesterday, but you don't plan to accept it today?"

"Obviously it was my father who asked you to find me. Even if you want a favor, you should go to him."

"Oh, so it's because of this." Jiang Lin touched his chin and smiled.

"If I said you would never regret going out with me today, would you go?"

Yu Xiaolian raised her eyebrows, "I am a cheap person, good things will not happen to me."

"As far as I know, with your family's current situation, surviving the winter this year will be a problem. Are you sure you don't want to come? This might be an opportunity to make a fortune."

After hearing what Jiang Lin said, Yu Xiaolian took a serious look at Jiang Lin.

Jiang Lin looks to be about seventeen or eighteen years old. He is tall and average-looking, with hair as messy as a chicken coop, giving him a dirty and slutty look.

Looking at the body again, there is a long hemp rope wrapped around the waist, and the upper body is wearing a short gown with no sleeves, exposing two thick arms. The gown also has large patches covered with small patches, no better than Yu Xiaolian's clothes.

Where to go.

"Why are you looking for me when there is such a thing as getting rich?" Naturally, Yu Xiaolian didn't believe in the pie-in-the-sky thing.

Jiang Lin glanced around and saw that there was no one around, so he leaned close to Yu Xiaolian's ear and whispered in a low voice.

After hearing Jiang Lin's words, Yu Xiaolian's eyes lit up and she said excitedly, "Just wait for me. I'll send the clothes home and I'll be there."

As soon as Yu Xiaolian entered the yard, she couldn't wait to dry her clothes. Just as she was about to run away, she hurriedly took yesterday's basket and the wooden knife for digging wild vegetables.

The contents of the basket were gone. It must have been pickled by Mrs. Sun.

Yu Xiaolian didn't see Mrs. Sun's figure, so she could only ask Yu Changhe who was weaving a basket with wicker in the corner of the yard, "Dad, where is my mother?"

The wicker baskets Yu Changhe weaves are both strong and beautiful, but each basket can only be sold for about five or six cents. This morning, Yu Changhe woke up and has made three baskets. He wants to

As he was about to receive fifteen cents, Yu Changhe was in a good mood. When he saw Yu Xiaolian asking him, he smiled and said, "Your mother went to Zhao's house to do embroidery work."

Seeing Yu Xiaolian carrying a basket, he asked again, "Are you going to go up the mountain to dig wild vegetables again?"

Yu Xiaolian nodded, "Have the ones you dug out yesterday been pickled? I'll dig out some more today and let my mother pickle them more, so that I won't have no food to go with my porridge in winter."

Yu Changhe smiled and asked, "Go ahead, remember not to go east, come back early?"

Yu Xiaolian agreed one by one, and after leaving the Yu family's yard, she ran towards the foot of the mountain with the basket in hand as if having fun.

Jiang Lin still had the long hemp rope wrapped around his waist and was turning the scimitar in his hand boredly. When he saw Yu Xiaolian coming out with a basket, he knew that she came out in the name of digging wild vegetables. He didn't waste any time and continued.

Yu Xiaolian's basket was held in his hand.

Jiang Lin walked in front, and Yu Xiaolian followed closely behind. Occasionally, if there was a place with dense vegetation, Jiang Lin would chop at it with a machete, but his clothes would not get wet from the morning dew.

After walking for more than half an hour, Yu Xiaolian couldn't help but ask, "How far is it?"

Jiang Lin kept walking, "What's wrong? Are you tired?"

Yu Xiaolian nodded, "A little bit."

After all, we have been walking on a mountain road for so long. Not only is it bumpy and bumpy, but weeds as tall as a person are often tangled in our feet, making the walk even more tiring than usual.

Yu Xiaolian pointed to a chopped tree trunk, "Sit down and rest for a while before we go?"

Just as Yu Xiaolian was about to walk over and sit down, Jiang Lin lifted her arm and pulled her up, "This is Grandpa Mountain God's dining table, you can't sit on it."

Yu Xiaolian's legs were weak from exhaustion. She didn't care about Grandpa Mountain God's dining table. She just wanted to find a place to sit for a while and rest her feet.

"You are so superstitious at such a young age!"

"Don't you believe that Grandpa Mountain God really exists?" Jiang Lin looked shocked.

For example, he and his father make a living by hunting and eating from the mountains. There is no doubt in their hearts about the existence of mountain gods.

Yu Xiaolian wanted to open her mouth and say, I don't believe it.

But thinking that he was inexplicably called the wrong soul, he swallowed his words again.

"If you don't want to sit down, I won't sit down. I'll just sit on the floor!"

Yu Xiaolian sat down on the grass. Fortunately, there was no dew on the grass at this time.

"How far is it?"

"Come on, we'll be there just over the top of this mountain!" Jiang Lin also sat on the grass next to Yu Xiaolian, "Aren't you afraid that I'm lying to you?"

"I'm your little nemesis. You're not afraid of bad luck. What should I be afraid of?"

"Yes, haha, I didn't expect you to be quite brave. I told my father many times, but he didn't allow me to come. As soon as I told you, you came."

Yu Xiaolian casually picked up a handful of weeds nearby and said, "We have agreed that if there is really something good there, we will each get half of it."

Jiang Lin patted his chest and said, "Don't worry, there must be good things in there."

Yu Xiaolian was dubious about Jiang Lin's words.

If there is really good stuff, why is Jiang Orion so taboo about it?

Taboo or not, they were already half way there, and they couldn't tolerate her going back on her word. They had to see what happened no matter what.

Jiang Lin suddenly took out an oil paper bag from his arms and handed it to Yu Xiaolian, "Here!"

Yu Xiaolian opened it and saw that it was a big golden chicken leg. She swallowed unconsciously and said, "Bring it to me specially?"

Jiang Lin shook his head, "I brought it for myself."

"Then why did you give it to me?"

Jiang Lin turned his head away to avoid Yu Xiaolian's scrutinizing gaze, "You can eat it if I give it to you. Where does all the nonsense come from?"
