Traveling through time and space to meet a replacement bride? But I’m a man!
Chapter 433: Regrets of Childhood
Zhang Qiaoer thought about it for a while.
"Cousin, actually... he has no ill will towards you. We only learned about the family affairs after we grew up.
Brother Cheng Jin has been smart since he was a child, and he was also the first to discover the secret of the family business.
You know, blood ties cannot be severed so easily. Brother Cheng Jin told grandfather that you wanted to leave the clan.
No one in the family agreed except my eldest sister-in-law and my brother."
Xu Wenyan sighed: "I know."
"That......"
Xu Wenyan smiled and said, "Then why am I so cold to him? It's not that I'm cold, it's mainly because the guy in my family is jealous."
"Your family..." Zhang Qiaoer thought for a few seconds and immediately understood who Xu Wenyan was referring to.
“I asked Jia Anqing, and he said that there is wine in Lin State, but there is not much in small places like this, and most of it is in the capital.
Zhang Chengjin handled the things in your business very well.
Even if the Wei Gaobin incident had not happened, he could have kept it a secret from all the nobles in the country forever.
But the appearance of Wei Ren has touched the interests of your Zhang family.
You have experienced this once, and the family cannot continue to be willing to fall into depravity. Gao Bin is an endless blood-sucking leech.
Your family can only use the most extreme means."
After hearing what Xu Wenyan said, Zhang Qiaoer was stunned. It was understandable that Xu Wenyan knew about Gao Bin's affairs, but the tobacco company's affairs,
Even she, a member of the Zhang family, only found out recently: "Cousin, how did you know..."
Xu Wenyan smiled and said, "Maybe most of the Zhang family's IQ is shared between Zhang Chengjin and me."
"Don't worry, it's not that I hate him, I just don't want to have such a deep friendship. My idiot doesn't like him, so I naturally can't let him down.
We won’t have much interaction in the future. You are a good girl and you didn’t follow the Zhang family astray.
So I would be willing to help you appropriately. I am a very casual person and do things almost entirely based on my temperament.
You don’t have to think too much, that’s all I want to say.”
After saying that, Xu Wenyan went out. Manager Wu was leading a few people from the Duan family to continue building the wall nearby.
These snow walls can block more wind and snow. This is what Xu Wenyan had instructed before. In the future, all the firewood that is chopped can be placed behind the snow walls.
Xu Wenyan walked forward and Chen Sanlin was already processing the rabbit.
"Wow, I caught a few."
"Two! Xu Wenyan, you don't know, I saw them when I just arrived, and they were still alive and kicking. I guess they were just caught." Luo Sanyuan ran over and said.
"That's enough for a meal." The extremely cold weather is a natural refrigerator. There's no problem keeping the meat outside for more than a month.
Xu Wenyan stretched out the lasso again and placed it in several different positions.
If I could catch one or two every day, I could easily survive here.
The only thing that scared Xu Wenyan was the possibility of encountering coyotes, but the problem of keeping warm was temporarily solved.
There were already two large bundles of firewood piled up on Xu Dashan's side, and Xu Wenyan also discovered that when he stepped on it, he could feel the snow and the sound of branches breaking.
Probably because there is no one here, some of the branches have turned into powder, but it does not affect the burning.
The snow today is much smaller, and I can still feel the sunshine.
Looking at the shining ground all around, to be honest, this was the first time Xu Wenyan had seen such a beautiful snow scene in real life.
"Xiao Man, look."
Xiaoman put down the stick in his hand and looked in the direction of Xu Wenyan's finger.
"There are no mountains over there, mostly Gobi Desert. Gobi Desert is a little further ahead. Look how beautiful the snow scene is."
Looking around, Xiaoman gradually showed a smile on his face: "Yes, beauty comes with danger."
"So do you still want to see the desert?"
"I think, maybe life is too short and full of adversities, so being able to see these beautiful views doesn't mean my trip to this world is in vain."
"Yes."
In his previous life, when he had just graduated, Xu Wenyan had always wanted to travel around the world like most people.
Or just find a place with beautiful scenery to travel.
He has too much on his shoulders.
Although it is a public school, the annual tuition fee of more than 10,000 yuan is real.
It seemed as if he had been thinking about how to make money ever since he could remember.
Working, earning extra money, helping people get equipment online, Xu Wenyan will try anything as long as it can make money.
He has been poor and afraid, and there is no one behind him.
But now it’s different, I have found someone I can rely on.
Xu Wenyan can trust them completely.
For Xu Wenyan, being able to travel with them is a reward.
It is the hope of regaining the regrets of youth in the past.
Looking at the beautiful snow scene, and watching the people around me making noises and joking.
Xu Wenyan felt that he probably did it.
Without staying for long, Xu Wenyan also returned to the camp carrying a stick.
He handed the two rabbit skins to Zhang Qiaoer and asked her to make a pair of earmuffs for Chen Sanlin, Luo Sanyuan and the other strong ones.
"Earmuffs? What are those?" Zhang Qiaoer took the rabbit skin and gently stroked the soft fur with her delicate hands, somewhat unsure of where to start.
"Well... just make a hood that covers the ears."
As he spoke, Xu Wenyan started to draw a rough sketch for Zhang Qiaoer and Duan Shi to see.
Looking at this strangely shaped thing, the two of them barely had some clues.
A piece of rabbit skin can be made into a set of earmuffs. The rabbit's fur in winter is extremely soft and can protect the ears very well.
At this time, Manager Wu walked in with a stern face: "Xu Wenyan, come out and take a look."
"oh oh."
After walking with Manager Wu for a while, we saw a large area of snow not far away that was dyed red.
You can see some human tissue and torn clothes still on the ground.
Xu Wenyan carefully peeled off the snow and could see some canine paw prints deeper inside.
Judging from how crowded they are, they are most likely a pack of wolves.
"It's a pack of wolves." As for the area on the ground, it could only be people from the exile team.
"I've asked Xiao Luo and Da Shan to check around again. I wonder if there are any other people who have been killed."
Most of the people who were killed had probably died long ago, and the wolves dug out the bodies from under the snow and ate them.
In the cold winter, the carcasses will not rot, which means that the sense of smell of wild animals can only detect what is under the snow.
"This snowfall is probably considered heavy in Longzhou. Many animals cannot endure such a harsh environment.
If we don’t have prey, there’s no guarantee that the wolves won’t attack us.”
As long as the crowd is not hundreds of people, the team's attack power is enough to resist.
But it is inevitable to get hurt.
Wolves are animals that are very afraid of being hurt. Once a wolf becomes a burden to the pack, it will be cruelly abandoned by the pack.
"Should we change places?" asked Manager Wu.
"No need. It doesn't matter where we go. This is the best place to avoid the snowstorm. When we go out next time, we must ensure that there are at least two people."
Soon, Xu Dashan and Luo Feng also came back.
They found several blood pits at the foot of the mountain.
After returning to the shelter, Xu Wenyan reinforced the entrance.
In fact, it is just to put some wooden sticks with snow to fix them, and then make a wooden door.
Otherwise, even wolves would have crawled into the quilt at night.
In addition, Xu Wenyan also built a box with snow in his residence to store meat.
