"Okay, don't tell anyone about what happened today. We'll talk about it later. Let's go back first. After we harvest the peanuts and sweet potatoes in the fields, we'll take them to Zhuhou Village again."

Xu Yuan drove the car to the gate of Uncle Wang's house. Uncle Wang got out of the car first, waved his hand, and walked into the yard.

It was almost dusk at this time, with the sky filled with red morning glow, the ox cart was moving slowly towards home. The path was remote, with few people around, and it was very quiet.

"Gu Qinghan?"

Going back home from this path, I passed the path going up the mountain. Unexpectedly, I ran into Gu Qinghan walking down with some dry fern leaves on his back.

"Make a wish? Are you sending the child home?"

"Yeah." Xu Yuan didn't want to say more. After all, the matter had not yet come to a conclusion.

Guozi and Xuanyu, the two kids, were lying in the car and sleeping soundly. Xu Zhi usually didn't talk much, so he just greeted Gu Qinghan and didn't say anything else.

"Okay, I'll go back first. It's getting late." Seeing someone coming back, Gu Qinghan said goodbye and prepared to leave.

Wishing nodded.

Looking at the fern leaves on Gu Qinghan's shoulders, he felt a little itchy. This kind of fern leaves would be great to use as firewood. Moreover, the tender shoots of fern would taste good if blanched and used for cold dishes.

Well, I’ll go up the mountain and get it some other day!

Go down to the ground, unlock the door, and push open the gate...

Ok……

Xu Yuan didn't react for a moment, and closed the gate and opened it again.

"Fuck..."

The yard was a mess. The wooden door of the vegetable garden in the backyard had been destroyed. The culprit was no longer in the yard, but was now in the vegetable garden. Seeing this, Xuyuan felt like he had a heart attack and was in pain.

Damn it! I’ve clearly defended myself well, why?

The noise did not alarm the animals digging holes in the vegetable garden, and they were still working hard to dig up the sweet potatoes in the ground.

Xu Zhi saw the unfriendly expression on his elder sister's face and was very puzzled, so he went forward to take a look.

He was also shocked at the moment, "Sister, our family's food!!"

"Xiaozhi, go and call for help. Your brother Gu should not have gone far. Close the gate." Xu Yuan quickly pushed Xu Zhi away and whispered.

How dare you do such a thing that would anger God and man and waste food!

Never forgive!

Xu Yuan was thinking of a solution. After all, if he startled it and it ran away, how would he get rid of his anger?

Xu Zhi over there led Dahua a little further away from the gate. The two little kids were still sleeping soundly, which was good. He tied the lead rope to a tree trunk nearby and chased after Gu Qinghan.

"Brother Gu, Brother Gu, come and help me."

Xu Zhi ran and shouted until his throat was about to smoke.

Fortunately, I met Gu Qinghan standing on the roadside and chatting with the villagers he met.

"Brother Gu."

Xu Zhi shouted quickly.

Gu Qinghan was chatting with Lao Fan about hunting at this time. After finishing his work in the fields, he prepared to make an appointment to go up the mountain to see if he could hunt some game.

Suddenly, he heard someone calling him from behind. He stopped talking and turned to look behind him.

Seeing Xu Zhi rushing over, he looked anxious and said, "Brother Gu, there's a wild boar in our house, can you help?"

Seeing that Gu Qinghan noticed him, he shouted quickly.

"Wild boar?"

Lao Fan also heard it and immediately became alert. "I'll go to the village to call for help. Qinghan, you go and help first. Go quickly."

"Ah."

"Xiaozhi, why are you alone? Where are Xiaoduo and Guozi?"

"Brother Gu, Xiaoduo and Guozi didn't enter the yard. They fell asleep in the car. Nothing happened."

"Okay, come on up, I'll carry you faster."

Gu Qinghan carried Xu Zhi on his back and performed light skills. With a few quick steps, he quickly arrived at the gate of Xu Yuan's house. At this time, the gate was tightly closed and no sound came from inside.

"You stay outside and don't go in. Look after your two younger brothers here." Gu Qinghan gave some instructions and gently pushed open the door to the yard.

At a glance, I saw that the bamboo gate of the vegetable garden in the backyard had been destroyed and there was no one inside.

"Make a wish?"

There was no movement.

A quick glance at the yard showed it was a mess. Sweet potatoes, peanuts, and the grains drying on the side were scattered everywhere. Some of the peppers drying on the rack next to it also fell to the ground. Only the dried fish hanging high on the corridor was spared.

When we arrived at the vegetable garden, we didn't expect it to be even worse than the yard. There were traces of climbing the mountain in the grass at the back, and there was no trace of blood on the ground. It seemed that Xu Yuan was not injured.

He quickly opened the gate and said, "Xiaozhi, you stay here and guard. You can only enter the yard if the villagers come. Your sister must have chased the wild boar away and chased it up the mountain. I'll go look for her."

"Ah? Is Sister injured?"

"No." After saying that, Gu Qinghan hurriedly entered the vegetable garden and followed the traces left behind.

······

Thanks to Lao Fan's loud voice, the news of the wild boar entering the village spread quickly without him knocking on the villagers' doors one by one.

Everyone dropped what they were doing. Some of the people had already started eating, so they took a few bites and left the yard.

After a while, a mighty team gathered together.

The old men and young men in the village, each carrying their tools, rushed to the courtyard where they were going to make a wish. The women behind them followed closely with the tools they had at home. Only some old women and children were left at home.

The courtyard gate was closed at this time, and only Xu Zhi, his two younger brothers, and an old ox were outside.

Guozi and many others have already woken up. They already know that the wild boar has entered their house and are all feeling very anxious.

Several villagers who followed took the lead and stood by the gate to eavesdrop, but no sound could be heard from inside.

"Old Gu, there's no movement inside."

"Brother Gu said that my sister drove the wild boar to the mountain, and my sister went to chase the wild boar."

"It's outrageous. How can a girl handle a wild boar? And she even chased it? Oh, really."

Uncle Wang shouted angrily and pushed open the gate.

"Oh my God!"

Seeing the situation in the yard, everyone exclaimed in amazement.

"It really hurts to waste all this food!"

"No wonder Yuan Ya chased after the wild boar even after it ran away. If it were me, I would not be able to vent my anger unless I skinned and tore its bones!"

"Wow, wow, wow, food. Good food." Many people who followed the villagers in saw the food in the yard in a mess and started crying.

"Uncle Gu, I'll take a group of young men from the village up the mountain to help find people." Li Junyong was still a little worried when he saw Gu Qinghan going up the mountain alone to look for people, as it was not far from dark.

"Okay, we'll leave some people here to watch, and some people will go up the mountain." After saying this, Village Chief Gu took a group of people up the mountain, and Uncle Wang and a group of people stayed in the yard.

"Oh, damn beast."

Aunt Li also came here with a group of women carrying their tools, and was amazed. Seeing many people crying, she went forward to comfort them.

"Come on, let's help clean up the yard. I'm getting more and more annoyed the more I look at it."
