Chereads / Plane Mall: I became a group favorite by hoarding goods / Chapter 37 - Chapter 37. I almost believed it!

Chapter 37 - Chapter 37. I almost believed it!

If you're lucky, you might be able to collect some firewood and come back, but if you're not lucky, it's possible that you won't be able to come back.

  "Look at how cowardly you all are!"

  Uncle Six banged the table, "Who told you to disperse up the mountain? Wouldn't such a large group of people go together? If something happens, it's better to have someone to take care of you!"

  Shen Man Dun suddenly understood, "Yes, how can we run into wolves every time!"

  "In this case, let's discuss a charter."

  The Shen family is a big family, and now it's not just one family that is short of firewood, it's natural that every family is short of time. That's why everyone is interested.

  Although Shen Mandun's mind was not very clear at times, he quickly got on the right track after being given some guidance.

  "Zheng Shan and Lian Hu are the hunters of our village, and they are very powerful. They must be very familiar with the roads on the mountain. You will lead them."

  Everyone said a few words to each other, and brainstormed to decide on the candidates to go up the mountain.

  "Do you understand everything?"

  "I understand. This time, Zheng Shan will take eight strong laborers up the mountain. In a few days, Lian Huzi will take another wave!"

  "Okay, everyone should go home and discuss it. Every family needs one person, otherwise there will be no firewood."

  People nodded, but Zheng Shan in the crowd hesitated to speak.

  "Then what. Why don't we also call the daughter-in-law?"

  Who?

  To raise someone's wife?

  Everyone was stunned, and then suddenly realized.

  "Mr. Shen Cheng!"

  "Look at my brain, how could I have forgotten that dominatrix!"

  Shen Mantun's eyes widened and he fiercely pointed at the culprit, "What dominatrix? You're talking nonsense!"

  "That's what you said! You're a female knight, a heroine!"

  ***

  "Xiaoxi, what are you doing?"

  When Li Zheng arrived at the Shen family courtyard, he saw a figure lying on the two and a half meter high wall, arranging something. .

  Cheng Xi wrapped the last loop of electricity around the erected wire, clapped his hands and jumped down.

  "Nothing, just look at the scenery."

  Can I tell you that this thing can electrocute people?

  It will definitely not work.

  "Uncle Li Zheng, are you looking for your husband? He's in the study."

  "No, no, I, cough. I'm looking for you, my nephew-in-law."

  A rare expression of shame and annoyance appeared on Shen Mantun's face, as if someone had brought him to the study. Wuhuada was kidnapped and taken here.

  Find me?

  Cheng Xi looked behind him, but there was no one there.

  Well, it should be voluntary.

  "You go inside first."

  Before Cheng Xi welcomed the person into the room, Shen Xingluo, who heard the voice, had already opened the door, and a burst of hot air floated out of the room towards the visitor.

  Shen Manyun was slightly startled when he felt the heat on his face, and was stunned when he stepped into the living room with two feet.

  who I am?

  Where am I?

  What am I doing?

  A wave of hot air enveloped him tightly from head to toe, and the warmth that hit his face made his brain, which had been frozen for a long time, suddenly shut down.

  It only took a moment, but he was actually sweating faintly.

  It's incredible!

  "You, you, why is your house so warm?"

  In fact, he saw a red-hot iron thing in the middle of the house without asking. Attract.

  It was round on the outside, leaving no gaps. Although he couldn't see clearly what was inside, he knew it was used to generate heat.

  The whole house is so warm because of it!

  "What is this? Why is it hotter than a brazier!"

  "It's an iron stove, something northerners use for winter."

  Shen Xingluo asked the guests to sit down, and Cheng Xi had already started making tea.

  "Uncle, why are you here today? But what's wrong with Uncle Six?"

  "He's fine. He's at home."

  Shen Mandun's thoughts were brought back a little, but his eyes were still staring at the iron stove in surprise.    

  Shen Xingluo and Cheng Xi looked at each other without disturbing each other. Instead, they poured each other a cup of tea and waited quietly while holding a cup.

  After a while, Shen Manyun remembered his purpose.

  "Ahem, that's what happened."

  He really didn't want to come.

  Going to the mountains to chop firewood was originally a matter between men in the village. It was inappropriate for a newlywed Cheng Xi to show up. As an elder, he had to take into account the reputation of his niece-in-law.

  However, there were only two hunters in the whole village, and they bluntly said that they couldn't hit Chengxi, and the danger of going up the mountain would be greatly reduced with her - this was embarrassing.

  In the end, it was Uncle Six who had the final say, please!

  But if someone is invited, they have to make an agreement, otherwise they will cause trouble for their juniors.

  "Everyone wants to go into the mountain?"

  Shen Xingluo and Cheng Xi looked at each other.

  Shen Manyun nodded, a layer of sweat broke out on his forehead.

  "Dad said that there are only three of you in your family. Xing Luo was injured before, so the family must be short of money. If my niece-in-law is willing to take everyone into the mountains, ask them to give you two kilograms of food per household."

  Food is a rarity nowadays. , even money can't buy it.

  Giving two kilograms of grain to one household is considered a generous act, and the villagers actually agreed!

  To be honest, this incident was somewhat beyond Cheng Xi's surprise.

  "Nice-in-law, you can think about it. We plan to go into the mountains to cut firewood tomorrow. Zheng Shan will take people there this time."

  "Don't think about it. If Xi'er doesn't go, I can take everyone into the mountains."

  Shen Xingluo said . His black eyes looked straight at the opposite side with a determined attitude.

  "You?"

  "But Xingluo, your body"

  "Uncle Mantun, my health is already well, and I have learned some skills from my father-in-law for a while."

  "Really?!"

  Shen Mantun was shocked. , he felt that his brain was not enough today.

  From the moment he walked in, nothing happened that he expected!

  Hasn't Xing Luo been studying all the time? When did he learn skills from the Cheng family? Simply unheard of!

  "Niece-in-law, is this true?"

  "Really, uncle, don't worry, my husband knows what he knows."

  Shen Mandun finally left with a look of confusion on his face, and was stuffed with an armful of roasted chestnuts before leaving.

  Cheng Xi was surprised by the cheap husband's plan, "Aren't you afraid that the people in Fucheng will know about your physical condition?" "

  Now is not the time to hide your shame."

  Shen Xingluo looked at her with deep eyes, "My wife was reinforcing the courtyard wall just now, and she must have been worried in her heart. Is it possible?"

  "."

  Can you tell the difference in this?

  Can't I just go up and sit for a while when I have nothing to do?

  "The disaster situation in our village is better now. Several surrounding villages can't even feed themselves. In the long run, there will definitely be chaos." " My

  lady sees clearly."

  "."

  I thank you, I almost believed it!

  Cheng Xi rolled her eyes at him unceremoniously, "What are you planning on doing?" The

  dog man kept her guessing.

  "I'm afraid Fucheng has been closed down, so don't worry about it for the time being."

  Shen Xingluo was silent for a moment, "Shenjia Village can't have chaos."

  "Okay, leave it to me at home."

  Cheng Xi didn't ask why Shenjia Village couldn't have chaos, and decisively gave The two divided the work.

  In fact, both of them have the ability to protect themselves, and it doesn't matter who takes the villagers up the mountain.

  Thinking of what she saw yesterday, she couldn't tell which was more dangerous, at home or on the mountain.
