System: The Path of a Mortal Being Stronger Through Being a Mother

Chapter 30 The Mother of Unfilial Sons Part 30

The habits I developed in the original world require me to replace some furniture when I move to a new home.

When she first started building the house, she had nothing to do, so she ordered the furniture according to the dimensions of the house.

When the villagers saw her buying these old things, they all talked about how much money Lin made from selling the game. If she spends so much, she will be a poor man who has suddenly become rich. I don’t know how to show off.”

Even if these expenses attract attention, what does it matter?

Her apparent income was enough to cover it up.

Zheng the Hunter has been in a bit of a pickle lately. The better Lin Miao is doing, the more unhappy he is.

On the one hand, it was because Lin Miao had saved his face last time, but mainly, he always felt that these hunting opportunities were his.

He secretly murmured to his wife: "A woman who doesn't stay at home to farm and take care of housework, becomes a hunter, and suddenly becomes rich. She must have robbed me of my opportunity. All this should be mine."

Although the hunter's wife didn't say anything, she felt a common hatred for Lin Miao in her heart. As long as someone in the village said something bad about Lin, she would definitely get involved and add fuel to the fire.

Recently, there have been people who have bad intentions making fun of Zheng the Hunter: "Zheng the Hunter, when are you going to renovate your house? You can't let Lin's outdo you."

There are many mountains in this area, especially Laoshen Mountain, which stretches for a long distance. There are hundreds of households who make a living by hunting.

The person who spoke had bad intentions to begin with, and when she met someone as narrow-minded as Zheng the Hunter, she bore even more resentment and was thinking about when to teach her a lesson.

Lin Miao knew that Hunter Zheng had always looked down on her family.

So what if he is full of malicious intent now? She is not afraid of him. If he dares to attack her, he will not be able to retreat.

Lin Miao doesn't bother to pay attention to this kind of person. She just lives her own life and it has nothing to do with others!

Lin Miao decorated the house and acted as the housewife for a few days. It was really a comfortable life with everything provided for her.

She didn't want Wang Hai and Wang Shan to get the old house for free, so she locked the door to the house and the yard. If someone wanted to buy it, she would sell it at a low price. If no one wanted to buy it, she would just leave it there. Anyway, no one could get it for free from her.

The leisurely days did not last long, and now something bad happened again.

The yamen runners notified all hunters according to the list, requiring every family to send one hunter, as the county was going to organize autumn hunting, which meant that the hunters had to perform labor service.

Lin Miao sighed, how could she have forgotten that she still had to do the work for nothing!

She is not short of money, but her good life must have a clear source.

This hunter has a good reputation. From time to time, she goes out for a few days and comes back to say that she has hunted valuable prey. How easy it is.

However, I have the conditions now and I am not short of money, so why should I suffer this pain?

Now that this has happened, it’s time to find another way out.

All hunters will gather at the foot of Laoshen Mountain tomorrow and go into the mountains together.

Lin Miao has already stored enough survival supplies in the space, but they must also be visible.

There are too many people, and there may not be a chance to use the supplies in the space.

She went to the pastry shop in Anping Town and asked them to make a lot of dry biscuits for her.

I bought several identical water bags and filled them with boiled water.

In order to conserve her energy, she went to bed early.

When Wang Sen called her, she was still confused and was in a bad mood after waking up.

You cannot be late for the government labor service, no matter how angry you are, you have to go.

She quickly packed herself up and put all her belongings in a large backpack, which she covered with a black cloth.

When they arrived at the foot of Laoshen Mountain, there was already a team of hundreds of people gathered, organized by the county constables and led by hunting veterans. They were divided into three teams and headed into the mountains in different directions.

There are only three female hunters in the team. The other two are quite strong, and only Lin Miao is old and weak.

No matter what, the three of them were excluded by the others and seemed out of place.

Lin Miao ignored them: We are all people from the lower class, why are we so anxious to fight each other?

Lin Miao did not take the initiative to approach others. It was indeed inconvenient since they were all men. The other two female hunters were assigned to other teams. They were just there for show. Gender would block many of your options.

Not all male hunters are against women hunting or anything like that. They are all poor and everyone is struggling to make a living.

It’s just that the rules of this era are like that, men and women are strictly separated, which is indeed inconvenient.

Lin Miao followed at a leisurely pace, listening to the men's conversation and watching their behavior. She felt that this trip was not in vain, as she learned a lot about hunting.

As long as she studies hard, she doesn't necessarily need someone to teach her specifically. She can just observe more, listen more, and combine her experience of reading books in her original world and searching on Baidu, and she will understand a lot of things.

Zheng the Hunter and Lin Miao are both in this team, although they are from the same village, the two of them seem so unfamiliar with each other that they don’t even know each other.

The other hunters exchanged glances with each other and moved further away from Lin Miao.

Lin Miao: ...Okay, whatever.

We walked deeper into the woods without any sound of talking and everyone walked very lightly for fear of scaring away the prey. But with so many people around, the alert prey had already been scared away.

Lin Miao didn’t understand why a team needed so many people. What could they achieve?

Wild animals also know how to seek good and avoid danger, right? If there are too many people, wouldn’t the prey far away be scared away?

Because she was very strong and fast, she didn't feel it was too dangerous after entering the mountains twice.

Her special ability made her misunderstand the dangers of hunting.

Going into the deep forest to hunt alone is a risk of death.

If you encounter a ferocious wild animal, it is difficult to escape from the forest.

There are no roads in the forest, so how can people outrun the animals on four legs?

There are some miracles left in these deep mountains and old forests. From time to time, magical medicine or animals with intelligence will appear. Once they appear, no one knows how many people will die.

As an ordinary person, Lin Miao certainly doesn’t know those mysterious things.

It is said that spirits are not allowed after the founding of the People's Republic of China. In fact, do you know if there are any spirits around you?

Maybe it lives next to you!

There were a lot of people, so they didn't walk that fast.

This is completely different from Lin Miao entering the forest by herself and being able to leave an afterimage.

The abilities that the system gave to Lin Miao, such as great strength and speed, are not what ordinary people have. She doesn't have a deep understanding of them at the moment.

After a day's work, they had reached the depths of the forest.

At noon, everyone just drank some water and ate some dry food they brought with them to fill their stomachs.

Tomorrow they will start the real hunting, so they need to eat well at night and then have a good rest to recharge their energy.

After everyone assigned their tasks, they got busy.

The 10 people cleared out a piece of land for the chosen campsite, then cut down trees and built a shed.

They also hunted some small prey on the way, but it was not enough for more than 30 people to eat, so a team of more than ten good fighters were sent out to hunt some prey first.

Five people went to fetch water and collect firewood, and the rest did odd jobs like building the stove.

The team leader asked Lin Miao to be responsible for lighting the fire and cooking.

He felt that Lin Miao was an elderly person after all, an old lady at that, and she probably had no other choice but to come out and work hard to make a living. Lin Miao also appreciated his kindness and agreed.

Lin Miaozheng used an axe to chop the firewood brought back by several people into small pieces. She felt that this life was like going out for a picnic.

Suddenly, a deafening roar was heard from afar, and the people who had gone out were calling for help.
