After the female supporting character in the quick transmigration series realized her mistakes
Chapter 17: The Abandoned First Wife (17)
After he calmed down a bit, Zeng Min slowly crawled out of his arms.
She raised her little fist and gently punched his chest a few times: "You really scared me just now, I thought..."
Tu Mingcheng said with a serious expression, "We're not married yet. Once we're married, I won't let you off so easily."
Zeng Min was amused by his serious expression, and a warm feeling welled up in her heart.
She gently patted Tu Mingcheng's shoulder and said with a coquettish smile, "Hehe, I didn't expect you to be so thoughtful! But you're not allowed to scare people like you did today again."
The two chatted for a while, and their mood and body gradually relaxed. Zeng Min took a deep breath.
Then she excitedly said, "Okay! Take me to see that cave! Maybe there's treasure inside!" Her eyes sparkled with curiosity, just like a little explorer.
Looking at her expectant expression, Tu Mingcheng smiled and reminded her.
"Don't overthink it. I've lived here for so long and haven't found anything special. It's just an ordinary cave." Tu Mingcheng affectionately ruffled her hair.
He then led her around the cave, but as expected, they didn't find anything special.
The two looked around the cave, their stomachs starting to rumble, while An Lin was still fast asleep in bed.
Tu Mingcheng tiptoed to the cave entrance, fetched some firewood, and prepared to show off his skills by cooking something delicious.
The cave was well-stocked with all the necessary ingredients. Seeing that Tu Mingcheng was starting a fire, Zeng Min couldn't just stand by and watch, so she picked up a jar, filled it with rice, and went to wash it clean.
Zeng Min stared at the pile of white rice in front of her, speechless with surprise: "How come you have so many refined grains here?"
Tu Mingcheng smiled slightly and explained, "I bought this on my way out. I originally planned to take it to your house to improve your meals. Last time I saw you and Anlin eating cornmeal, so I thought I'd buy some refined grains so you could also nourish your bodies."
"Oh."
Zeng Min carried the washed rice to the temporary stove to cook, then, like a cheerful little bird, she happily walked over, wrapped her arms around his waist like vines, and pressed her body tightly into his warm embrace.
She said coquettishly, "You're so wonderful, I can't wait to marry you. But you're not divorced yet, don't you think I'm being too forward?"
Looking at her adorable, coquettish appearance, Tu Mingcheng felt as sweet as if he had eaten honey.
He lowered his head and gently kissed her lips, saying with utmost affection, "No, I'm very happy about it. The divorce is almost settled."
A little while later, after the meal was prepared, An Ning was woken up to eat. After the meal, Tu Mingcheng took Zeng Min to stroll around the cave area and enjoy the beautiful natural scenery.
Outside the cave was a mountainous area resembling a green velvet carpet, with a clear stream flowing through it like a silver ribbon.
Every time Tu Mingcheng hunted prey in the mountains, he would clean it up in this stream.
Looking at this spacious place, with so much arable land, Zeng Min couldn't help but feel a pang of regret.
She asked in bewilderment, "Can't we grow crops here? Why leave it idle?"
Tu Mingcheng smiled and explained, "That's not the case. There are many small animals and wild boars here, as well as flocks of birds. The crops planted here would probably not be enough to meet their needs. And I can't always be here to watch over them, so I haven't planted any."
Tu Mingcheng gazed at the woman beside him, and couldn't help but take her hand, gently stroking it in his palm. Looking at the quiet surroundings, he felt a restlessness in his heart.
He shook his head vigorously, as if trying to banish all the distracting thoughts from his mind, and then said, "I just store the wild animals I hunt here. When I go to the truck, I'll take them to other places to exchange for what I need."
"With money, we can buy a lot of grain; it's really not worth it to grow crops here."
Zeng Min said with a look of frustration, "I was so ignorant. I only thought about having enough to eat and wear every day, and I had no idea how to make money. I never thought about planning for the future. Am I too useless?"
"No, I will take care of you."
Tu Mingcheng hugged Zeng Min tightly, weighed her in his hand, and felt that she was as light as a feather.
He secretly decided that he would buy her more refined grains and malted milk powder in the future to nourish her body properly.
Zeng Min, like a well-behaved kitten, curled up in Tu Mingcheng's arms, hugging his neck tightly, feeling an unparalleled sense of security.
She gently rubbed her delicate cheek against his neck, as if telling him of her affection.
Zeng Min loved the feeling of being tightly embraced. It made her feel incredibly safe, as if it could soften her heart and bring her immense satisfaction.
The two remained silent for a while, like two statues.
Zeng Min finally couldn't hold back any longer and said, "Isn't it a waste that we're just going to look at the cave today and then go home after dark?"
Tu Mingcheng replied, "How about we go hunting? I'm going to work in a couple of days, so I'll hunt some wild game for you guys to take home and have a taste."
"Great!" Zeng Min exclaimed excitedly, like a child. "But I don't know how to hunt. How can I help?"
"You can just stand by and watch me show off my skills, or help me carry the pheasants and rabbits I hunt," Tu Mingcheng said with a smile.
Tu Mingcheng went to the cave to retrieve his bow, arrows, and scimitar for hunting, and picked up Xiao Anlin, who was playing by the stream, to go with him.
They walked up the mountain along the stream. Along the way, Tu Mingcheng, like a learned teacher, gave Zeng Min a detailed introduction to the habits and characteristics of various wild animals.
Soon, they spotted a hare. Tu Mingcheng, like a nimble cheetah, stealthily approached, then with all his might, shot an arrow at the hare.
After being hit by the arrow, the hare collapsed to the ground like a bowling ball that had been struck.
"Wow, you're amazing!" Zeng Min, holding Xiao Anlin, ran over excitedly to pick up the wild rabbit.
Little Anlin wasn't to be outdone; he clapped happily in his mother's arms, muttering, "Uncle is so amazing."
Zeng Min couldn't help but laugh: "All you do is parrot what others say."
Then, they found a pheasant. Tu Mingcheng once again demonstrated his strength.
Zeng Min wasn't idle either; her eyes scanned the surroundings like radar, and she spotted wild grapes and wild raspberries.
She placed her son beside her and, like a diligent little bee, picked them one by one.
"What a fruitful day!" Zeng Min said, looking at the wild raspberries wrapped in leaves and the basket full of wild grapes.
He said happily, "The wild grapes and prickly pears I picked today can be used to make wine. Do you have any wine in your cave? I'll bring it to you to make wine later."
Tu Mingcheng replied, "There is wine, but there is only one wine jar."
"That's fine, let's soak the wild grapes first."
As darkness fell, the three of them returned home with their bountiful spoils, exhausted as deflated balloons.
Although it was only a short day, Zeng Min felt incredibly fulfilled and happy, as if this day were the most dazzling jewel in her life. She looked forward to the future with great joy.
……
Another half month has passed in a flash.
In an alley in Anling County, Wu Xinxin, her hair disheveled from running, suddenly stopped in front of a house and frantically knocked on the door.
Rapid footsteps came from inside the house. The person who opened the door saw Wu Xinxin knocking.
She smiled and said, "It's Sister Xinxin! Why are you knocking so urgently? Is something wrong?"
Wu Xinxin, panting heavily, was rubbing against Zhou Lin's vulva when he said, "Hurry up, hurry up and check if there are any contraband items in your house. Your house has been reported. Red Guards are coming to search your house, so I ran here to inform you. Get ready quickly."
Upon hearing this news, Zhou Lin panicked and didn't know what to do. Wu Xinxin reminded him to hurry home and put away anything that shouldn't be there, as well as any valuables.
Otherwise, if those bandits come to search the house, won't they take away all the valuables in the house?
Wu Xinxin saw Zhou Lin enter the house and followed him in.
Upon entering and seeing Zhou Lin's parents, he quickly said, "Uncle and Aunt, please check the house immediately to see if there is anything that needs to be hidden. The Red Guards are coming."
When Zhou's parents heard about the Red Guard, they were startled. They didn't care about Wu Xinxin and one of them went to the room to tidy up, while the other went to the study.
As soon as Wu Xinxin entered, her eyes glanced intentionally or unintentionally at the study and the room where Zhou's mother had entered.
Just as Zhou Lin's family finished tidying up, they heard a noisy chatter coming from the alley.
A moment later, the door was kicked open by the person who was first in line. He didn't seem to be surprised when he saw Wu Xinxin, and even glanced at her intentionally or unintentionally.
He walked straight past her into the house, and Wu Xinxin followed closely behind.
Seeing a group of students entering the house and immediately touching and rummaging through everything, clearly familiar with the process, I quickly said, "Don't mess up the owner's rooms. Handle things gently and quietly during the search."
When Lin Jianhong heard her mention the room, she quickly walked into the room Wu Xinxin was looking into.
Lin Jianhong: "I'll go to this room. You guys go check the other rooms. Search carefully and don't miss any stolen goods you might find."
After saying that, he glanced at Wu Xinxin, seemingly in a provocation.
Wu Xinxin stood alone in the living room, looking a little uncomfortable, which Zhou Lin noticed.
He comforted her, saying, "Don't worry, they left without finding anything."
Wu Xinxin "..."
