Chapter 66 Hunting in the mountains again

Yang Mingxi nodded and said, "When I discovered it before, it felt a little familiar, but I couldn't think of what to do. Now that I've heard you talk about it, I understand."

Uncle Wu said, "I'll go back tomorrow and call your third uncle back. I'll try adding the clay I brought back. If it works, I'll have him come over to your house to experiment. If it works, we can start making bricks for your house."

Yang Mingxi nodded and walked home with Uncle Wu. Not long after they walked out, they saw Yang Laowu coming over.

When the two sides met, Uncle Wu and Yang Laowu talked about the plan of building a house and the place where bricks were fired. Yang Laowu was so excited that he almost stumbled and fell.

After dinner, a few people talked about this matter again around the table. They felt that they should buy both the upper and lower gentle slopes together. If it really didn't work, they could buy the upper wasteland and gentle slope first, and put the lower gentle slope aside for now.

Yang Mingxi suddenly felt that she was under great pressure to make money. It was 200 taels before, but now it is at least 350 taels. Before the New Year, the three brothers and sisters worked for more than half a month, but they earned less than one-third of the money. What should she do?

After much deliberation, Yang Mingxi finally decided to go hunting. At least it was the fastest way to make money that she could find.

Uncle Wu squeezed in with Yang Minghao and the others at the old Yang family's house, while Yang Mingxi and her two siblings came over to the thatched hut to rest.

When she came here, Yang Mingxi went to Zheng Huairen's house and checked with everyone in her family. There was no problem at all, including Zheng Huairen's mother, who could already water the vegetable garden.

After seeing the doctor, Zheng Huairen came out with him and sent Yang Mingxi back. When they arrived at the river, Yang Mingxi told her brothers that she and Zheng Huairen would discuss going up the mountain to hunt, and then go back to sleep.

Yang Mingxi and Zheng Huairen came to the stream and sat down. Zheng Huairen took out a roasted pheasant from his arms and said, "Eat it. It's still hot. I caught it in the mountains and roasted it after returning from the wasteland."

Yang Mingxi looked at the roasted pheasant handed to her, and her heart was sweet. She felt that marrying Zheng Huairen seemed not bad. At least he was still very good to her. Yang Mingxi took the roasted pheasant with a smile, pulled out a roasted chicken leg, handed it to Zheng Huairen and said: "I haven't eaten it for a long time. I'm craving it. You can have some too. Thank you."

Zheng Huairen took the pheasant leg, fed it to Yang Mingxi and said, "Eat more if you're hungry."

Yang Mingxi ate the pheasant that Zheng Huairen fed to her and felt it was particularly delicious. Wouldn’t it be nice if she could be like this in the future?

Yang Mingxi sat by the stream and ate a whole roasted pheasant. During the meal, she fed Zheng Huairen a few bites, but he stopped eating.

Zheng Huairen looked at Yang Mingxi, whose mouth was full of oil, and lovingly reached out to wipe her mouth. He smiled and said, "Are you full, little greedy cat?"

Yang Mingxi nodded without saying anything. Zheng Huairen reached out and took Yang Mingxi in his arms, half hugging her in his arms, and said softly, "Let's go hunting tomorrow!"

Yang Mingxi nodded again without saying anything. She nestled in Zheng Huairen's arms, looking at the bright moonlight in the sky, feeling very happy.

Zheng Huairen caressed Yang Mingxi's hair and lowered his head, saying, "Xixi, I'll ask my mother to ask someone to go to your house to propose marriage, is that okay?"

Yang Mingxi nodded again without saying anything. After a long while, Yang Mingxi stood up and said, "I'll ask my third brother to tell my cousins. See you tomorrow." Then she turned and walked towards the thatched cottage.

Zheng Huairen watched the little girl enter the house before turning around and going back.

After a while, Yang Mingyang came out and went to Old Yang's house. He was going to inform others to continue hunting in the mountains tomorrow.

In the thorns across the stream, Lu Jintang slowly stood up, looked at the thatched house, turned around and used his lightness skills to head towards Qianhuang Mountain.

He had just made a trip to the capital and arranged for several people he had trained before to wait for his relatives at Wuliting outside the capital as merchants. Then, using the excuse that they were going the same way and were people he had just met, he brought his grandparents, parents and relatives to Qianhuang Mountain.

After a few days of preparation, I packed my custom-made shorts, drove a mule cart, and headed north to meet my relatives. I had just returned to Qingshui County tonight and had originally planned to pick up my clothes and leave tomorrow, but I was really worried about a certain girl, so I went to Changshan Village. Unexpectedly, upon entering the village, I saw the girl I'd been thinking about and her lover preparing to get intimate by the river. In a fit of rage, I hid in the brambles across the stream and eavesdropped on their conversation.

Looking at the two of them snuggling together, Lu Jintang wanted to run over and separate them, but he was nothing now and had no position, so he finally endured it.

Hearing that the little girl was going hunting tomorrow, Lu Jintang returned to Qianhuang Mountain, found his secret guard, agreed to go hunting tomorrow morning, then asked about the progress of the house before turning around and leaving using his lightness skills.

The next day, Yang Mingxi, Yang Mingyang, Yang Mingyu and Zheng Huairen met up with Yang Mingyong and his group near Changhu Lake and headed towards Kaohai Mountain.

When they arrived at the small river between Kaohai Mountain and Changhu Mountain, Zheng Huairen clearly felt that the atmosphere in the mountains was not right.

Yang Mingxi also discovered it, and she had a hunch that she would not be able to ambush any prey on the trail today, so the previous hunting method would definitely not work.

Yang Mingxi and Zheng Huairen looked at each other and said, "There are changes in the mountains today. Let's go over there and see what's going on before making a decision."

The group crossed the stream and followed the trail to the place where Yang Mingyong was observing prey. They found that there was almost no prey in the entire grassland, and it seemed that the prey on the mountain was always running.

These conditions were not suitable for Yang Mingxi and his group. Although they had been hunting for over half a month, they hadn't made any mistakes and almost always caught the prey directly. Now that the prey was running around, it was very dangerous for them who had no skills.

Yang Mingxi observed for a while and said, "Apo and Third Brother stay, the rest of you retreat to the other side of the stream. The four of us will go into the mountains and hunt for prey if we have a chance. If not, we will go back. The situation in the mountains is unusual today."

After that, the four of them headed for the mountains, and the rest of the group retreated. Yang Mingyang and his three cousins built a fire by the river, caught some fish, and roasted them. Then, they continued the same process: chopping trees and making rafts. They would use them today, and save them for later.

When Yang Mingxi and his team entered the mountain near the sea, they found that the prey was very panicked, as if something was chasing them. They observed many places and found the same thing.

Seeing that the sun was already at its zenith, Yang Mingxi suggested retreating home. As they were walking back, Yang Mingxi sensed prey running towards them. Without thinking, he quickly asked them to find branches to set a snare.

Yang Mingxi quietly felt the situation and arranged for Zheng Huairen and the others to adjust the position of the noose. Just when she was ready, Yang Mingxi felt another one running over. However, there were only four of them and five prey. How should they arrange it?

Finally, a noose was set up between Yang Mingyu and Yang Mingbo, so Yang Mingyu and Yang Mingbo were pulling three nooses, and Zheng Huairen also added an extra noose. If Yang Mingyu slipped through the net, Zheng Huairen would have to pull two nooses by himself.

Just as the adjustments were completed, five sturdy wild boars ran towards us from a distance. Everyone held their breath and prepared to pull the rope.
