After crossing, I look forward to the three stepmothers leaving the singles every day

Chapter 48

Mo Youcai squeezed the preserved apricot in his hand, and asked thoughtfully, "Is there no one who knows this kind of fruit?"

Zheng Yi responded urgently: "The little one has already sent extra manpower today, even if they dig three feet into the ground, they will find it..."

Hearing this, Mo Youcai's face became even darker. When he first hit on their family, who would have thought that one day he would turn over at their hands.

And this day came so fast that he was a little caught off guard.

……

"My lord, Nan Xing and the others are here."

"Are they here to borrow a donkey cart?"

"...Yes." Mo Xi was taken aback, but Lu Jingyou had already guessed it.

"Good people do it to the end, you go and send them back." Lu Jingyou said without raising his head.

He sat obliquely, flipping through the medical books page by page, chewing a sweet and sour preserved apricot in his mouth from time to time.

Mo Xi stared at him blankly again, glanced at the apricot wrapped in oil paper, turned around and left without saying a word.

Shu Fei came in from the corner, smiled at him and said, "Since when did you pay attention to such a small matter?"

"Aren't you hungry?" As he said that, Lu Jingyou pinched an apricot in his hand and threw it over to him.

Shufei smiled, then opened and closed his mouth, and swallowed it directly.

"Oh, it's still the same, boring, reckless, if I knew it, it wouldn't be cheap for you." Lu Jingyou rolled his eyes at him.

"I heard that Young Master bought land and built a house here, do you plan to go back?" Shufei looked at him seriously.

Hearing this, Lu Jingyou frowned.

Yes, he still has a home, but he can't go back now.

He was silent for a while, then asked back, "Then when will you set off to go back?"

"You forgot? I'm yours, so of course I want to stay." Shufei replied angrily.

Lu Jingyou smiled, and stuffed another preserved apricot into his mouth: "It just so happens that I have something for you to do."

……

Hearing that Mo Xi said that he was going to send them back, Nan Xing quickly retracted his half-stretched hand, including a box of pastries brought back from Hongfu Restaurant.

She thought it would take a box of pastries to get Lu Jingyou to agree to borrow her donkey cart to go home, but she was a little surprised that he was so generous that he even lent it to her.

So, without even thinking about it, she unceremoniously took Qiuju and Chunmei into the donkey cart, and the four of them hurried back to Xiaozhai Village leisurely.

After setting off, Nan Xing took out a small bag of preserved apricots, distributed some to Mo Xi, and put the rest on the donkey cart, eating and chatting with him, feeling very comfortable.

It's just that she was comfortable here, but the family exploded, and even the whole Gong Town was turned upside down because of her words.

It was only light in the morning, and as soon as they went out with Lu Jingyou, Liu Xiaodou led his younger brother Liu Xiaoshan and set off.

I saw the two of them standing at the head of the village and the other at the end of the village, their mouths moved and they whistled crisply.

After the whistle stopped, doors were opened one after another, and young men came out one after another with two baskets on their backs.

After a while, the entrance of the village was crowded with people, and it was dark.

Liu Xiaodou asked softly, "Is everything clear?"

Everyone nodded fiercely.

If they just raised their arms and shouted, maybe the adults who were sleeping would be scared to jump up.

So, under the leadership of Liu Xiaodou, a group of people set off in a mighty way.

And Shijiao Village and Qingping Village have the same scenes as here.

Under the leadership of their cousins, they rushed up the mountain in a swarm, as long as anyone found out, they would contact through the whistle.

It's just that they were inexperienced for the first time, and each of them went out with only one backpack on their backs. When they saw that the people in Xiaozhai Village went up the mountain with two backpacks on their backs, their intestines were going to regret it.

However, there are people who regret more than them.

Today Zheng Yi and Mo Youcai said they would send more people, vowing to dig three feet into the ground.

It's just that the original six people became thirty people, and then ten people went to each village, and they were going to search all the hills in Gongzhen.

But the people he sent out were not enough, less than half of Liu Xiaodou's manpower, what's more, his people were scattered among three villages.

Because Liu Xiaodou and the others did their homework a day in advance, they copied the trails and climbed up the hills as soon as they went out. They searched one hill after another like a carpet, and finally let them find four old apricot trees, one of which was bigger than Xiaozhai. The tree in the village is still big and has grown fruitful.

Liu Xiaodou and the others were so surprised that they laughed from ear to ear. Seeing them was like seeing golden fruits. They were all shiny money.

So, they immediately rolled up their sleeves and started to work. It didn't take long before they were crazy and they had already picked up all the apricots.

Looking at the rows of full baskets in Xiaozhai Village, Zhu Guang said enviously, "You guys are too good..."

"That's right." Liu Xiaodou was so tired that his face was flushed, and beads of sweat dripped down like bean grains. If it wasn't for the lack of hands and feet, he wished he could bring ten or eight more panniers.

He is a person who wants to talk about marriage. If he doesn't work hard to earn money, he will really marry a widow who is ten years older than him and will go home.

However, he glanced at the sixteen empty backpacks left by the others, and a trace of pity still flashed in his eyes.

Originally, the back baskets in their village could still be filled, but the people in Shijiao Village had more backs, and they kept emptying them.

For the next time, he gritted his teeth and gave them the remaining apricot fruit on the tree.

When their army converged and went down the mountain, they happened to meet the people Zheng Yi sent up the mountain.

Others didn't know why, but Liu Xiaodou knew something, thinking that these people were coming to steal money from them.

So, he looked down on them unceremoniously, then raised his head, and greeted everyone to go back to Xiaozhai Village.

Seeing this, the people sent by Zheng Yi instantly understood that this should be the fruit their boss wanted.

Looking at each of them has a basket full of fruit, and some even have two baskets...

They all looked dumbfounded, are they late?The intestines are more regretful, and I would have gone up the mountain in the dark if I knew it earlier...

It's a pity, even if they went up the mountain in the dark all night without even carrying a basket, how many of them could they take away with only two sleeves?

When they looked at the bare fruit trees, their tears were about to fall. If they went back, how would they explain it to the higher authorities?
Unfortunately, the other two groups of people also encountered the same embarrassment. Their faces were extremely ugly, and they stared blankly at the bald apricot tree in a daze.

After Ji Xiangyan, Luo Yunfei and Jiang Yanhua got up in the morning and had breakfast, they went back to their room to rest together.

Suddenly, when they heard the door being slammed 'bang bang bang', the three of them were startled.

The last time I was photographed like this was when thugs came to collect debts.

"What happened?" Jiang Yanhua was taken aback.

"What could be the matter?" Ji Xiangyan asked with her head tilted.

"Go and open the door." Luo Yunfei kicked Ji Xiangyan who was sleeping next to her.

Her face was still swollen, and she was a bit ugly. She didn't want to open the door to meet people, so she had to bully her.
