Reborn in 1974, crying with red eyes while hugging her rough husband

Shen Zhizhu and Xu Haonan didn't want to argue for the time being. They felt that the more they argued with them, the more excited they would become, so it was better to ignore them.

"It's good enough that we're not late. Let's go. We have to go up the mountain. The earlier we go, the earlier we can come back. I can still take a nap."

Shen Zhizhu had no intention of competing with Shen Aiqiu and didn't even give her a glance, which made Shen Aiqiu very depressed.

She felt like there was a lump in her chest and she couldn't breathe. All the speeches she had prepared were useless, which made her feel very bad.

It was like a fist hitting cotton.

Xu Haonan walked to the tractor and sat down consciously. The villagers also got on the tractor one after another. Shen Aiqiu and Du Manjun were at the end.

Shen Ai Qiu asked again.

"Make sure that nothing goes wrong with what you are doing before we get up the mountain. I don't want to get myself into trouble halfway."

Du Manjun didn't expect that at this time, Shen Aiqiu was still questioning his abilities.

"It's already like this, you can sit down or not. If you don't trust my skills, why did you come to me? Leave this matter to me and leave now."

Shen Ai Qiu looked at Du Manjun's back, rolled her eyes and muttered to herself.

"How can I ask someone else for help with something like this that will cost me jail time? If I didn't know that you and I had the same idea, would I have asked you for help? You are an arrogant, narcissistic idiot who can't listen to other people's opinions. If I knew all these, would I still need a piece of trash like you?"

But the search has been done and the work has been done. As Du Manjun said, it has come to this and the place is full of people.

Shen Ai Qiu took a deep breath and followed the team to the car. She decided to trust him for once. She had made the worst-case scenario plan. Even if an accident really happened on the way, it would not be a loss to have so many people buried with her.

Anyway, most of them were thinking about Shen Zhizhu, so she would be happy if they all died.

Shen Ai Qiu's heart has been twisted.

Along the way, Xu Haonan drove very steadily and not too fast. After a while, he arrived at the back mountain and stopped at a similar position as last time.

"I haven't been here for a while, and sure enough there are fallen branches here again. Although there are not as many as last time, it's okay. Let's pick them up first, and then we can go somewhere else."

Du Manjun looked at the branches and gave orders as a matter of course.

"Last time, I found a place not far from here, with quite a few branches. Not many people went there last time, but I think after a while, there will be more."

"That's fine. After we finish here, we'll go over there and take a look. I'll ask Haonan to drive the tractor for a bit. It'll be more convenient since it's closer."

Shen Zhizhu and Xu Haonan looked at each other. The place Du Manjun mentioned was probably the location they had chosen this time.

Xu Haonan responded with good temper.

"It's not a problem. Ah Zhu and I will help. This way it will be faster."

"Oh, that's what I said. Haonan and Xiaozhu are both good and filial children. People who can pass the exam to go to Beijing must have high qualities. How could they really leave us alone? This money is not wasted."

"That's right. Haonan is capable. He can hunt game and sell it for money. He can also help make money elsewhere. He earns a lot of money every month. Not to mention that Xiaozhu is the second in command of the clothing store in the city and earns even more money. Why would he go with us just for 45 yuan?"

Xu Haonan's words made many people speak up for them, and Shen Zhizhu even went to hold the arm of an elderly lady.

"Grandma, let me help you. You don't have to work too hard. I have plenty of energy."

"Hahaha, good, good boy. Thank you, grandma."

Xu Haonan and Shen Zhizhu quickly found their places and chatted and laughed with the villagers.

Instead, Shen Ai Qiu and Du Manjun were left alone and seemed to feel somewhat isolated.

Shen Aiqiu's back teeth were almost broken by biting them.

"Laugh, laugh, soon you won't be able to laugh anymore."

Then she also chose a seat and went over, not forgetting to say something to Du Manjun.

"You should also find a place to collect firewood. Once you finish collecting firewood here, you can go to other places to collect firewood. Don't be lazy."

She didn't lower her voice on purpose, so people around her thought her family was short of firewood.

"Xiao Qiu, you are probably the only one in your family who needs firewood now. I passed by your house a few days ago and it looked like there was still a lot of firewood left."

Shen Ai Qiu didn't want to talk to anyone, but subconsciously wanted to save her face, so she forced a smile.

"It's better to be prepared. What if it's not enough? I'm the only one at home, and I don't have any relatives nearby. That would be bad."

The man thought that his words had touched Shen Ai Qiu's sore spot, which was why the other person's smile was so ugly.

He spoke with a guilty look on his face.

"I'm sorry, I didn't mean to bring up your sad story. You're still young and there are many possibilities in the future. Don't give up."

Shen Ai Qiu nodded and continued speaking along the lines of that person.

"I'm fine, thank you for your concern. Let's collect firewood and go back early. It gets dark quickly in winter."

She didn't want to say much to others, lest she couldn't control her impatience and let others notice something.

Since the other party misunderstood that he had touched upon his own sore spot, he might as well just let it go.

This area alone kept them busy for more than an hour, and the firewood in the tractor was spread out in several layers.

They rested for a while and replenished their water. About half an hour later, Du Manjun stood up and urged Shen Aiqiu to go.

"How's everyone's rest? Why don't we go to the next place?"

"Okay, let's go."

Half an hour was enough for them to recover their strength. They had no objection and stood up and wanted to get on the tractor.

Who wants to walk when there are means of transportation?

Du Manjun stopped everyone.

"Wait, the road on the mountain is very rugged, and there is even a little snow in some places. Although it's not a big deal, with so many people sitting in the car, it will inevitably be difficult to control, which will add pressure to Haonan. Anyway, it's not far, why don't we all walk there."

They are not pretentious people. They know that driving on the mountain is dangerous, so they don't force it.

"Okay then, Haonan, you better be careful."

Seeing that no one insisted, Du Manjun quietly breathed a sigh of relief, while Shen Aiqiu didn't react much and it didn't matter whether they sat down or not.

Xu Haonan glanced at Shen Zhizhu and wanted Shen Zhizhu to walk as well.

"Come on, I'll go with you"

Shen Zhizhu naturally knew that according to Du Manjun's skills, they would soon have an accident, but she believed in Xu Haonan, and before Xu Haonan could say no, she sat directly on the side of the tractor.

Shen Ai Qiu didn't expect such a good thing to happen. Shen Zhizhu sat on it by himself without her having to persuade him.
