Rebirth in 1984, starting from beekeeping in the mountains

Chapter 44 must have been a mistake!

After a while.

Wang Tongcai took a deep breath and continued to inquire with Fang Hongan.

At that moment, Fang Hongan told Zheng Quan about the basket of mountain products he inadvertently saw under the kudzu leaves when he came.

Wang Tong was so shocked that he couldn't close his mouth when he heard this.

After mumbling a few words, he excitedly pulled Fang Hongan and said, "Brother... let's go into the mountains to hunt for mountain goods in the future. If we have a chance, we can call him along! After all, Xichongling is not far away!"

Fang Hongan nodded: "Let's wait for the opportunity! When we have time, let's go to Xichongling to see him first!"

Given Zheng Quan's situation, he was able to become an expert in hunting mountain products. According to Fang Hongan's speculation, he was unlikely to be the type who chased dogs and showed off his knives and guns, but rather someone who was well versed in setting traps and digging snares.

If they could go into the mountains together to hunt for mountain products, they would indeed be a great partnership.

However, his mother is seriously ill and bedridden at home, so it may not be convenient for him to go into the mountains.

But from these two encounters, this person is self-reliant, grateful, and very patient. In these mountains, he is indeed someone worth making friends with.

"Ok!"

Wang Tong also remembered that Zheng Quan had an old mother lying at home. He nodded seriously and kept this matter in mind.

…………

…………

Set off again.

The two calculated the time and walked at a leisurely pace.

Finally, about half an hour after dark, the two arrived at the entrance of Shiwan Village.

It was dark, Fang Hongan gave Wang Tong a look, and Wang Tong immediately waved the whip and increased the speed of the carriage.

This time, I really want to go home early.

Secondly, I also wanted to take advantage of the fact that it was dinner time when every household was having dinner and there were few people outside, so I could quietly leave.

It is said that people are afraid of becoming famous just like pigs are afraid of getting fat!

At the moment, Fang Hongan really doesn't want those jealous people in the village to know about this.

Being low-key is a must.

As they quickened their pace, the two looked at each other, and even their steps became lighter.

I just hope that the journey goes smoothly and no one notices me.

But the more you fear something, the more likely it is to happen. This donkey, which had been very quiet on the road, must have found something to eat on the road when it reached a row of houses near the village. It suddenly stopped, buried its head, stuck out its tongue and rolled it up on the ground.

It was right in the middle of the road, less than thirty meters away from the row of houses, and one could clearly hear bursts of noisy noise coming from one of the houses.

What’s even more coincidental is that this row of three houses is the most famous “broadcasting center” in the entire Shiwan Village!
The three houses were occupied by three brothers named Xie who were born from the same mother.

These three brothers not only like to brag, but also like to talk nonsense everywhere.

What’s even more outrageous is that every one of the wives the three brothers married were gossipy women who loved to gossip.

The villagers jokingly called them "three loudspeakers and three machine guns."

If any rumor reaches them, it will be immediately magnified tenfold.

Wang Tong glanced at it for a while. The three families should be having dinner in one of the houses, and the door was open.

If you wait any longer, maybe someone will come out soon.

If they discover this donkey cart and the things on it, by tomorrow morning, not only Shiwan Village, but even their Shanmuling would be filled with rumors.

Wang Tong was also anxious. He pulled the rope twice but couldn't move it, so he simply whipped it hard with a whip.

But the donkey's stubbornness broke out at this moment. Feeling the pain, it not only had no intention of leaving, but also started to cry out in dissatisfaction.

This shout scared Wang Tong.

In a hurry, he cursed twice under his breath and raised the whip in his hand again!

"Don't!" Fang Hongan quickly stopped him.

Then, Fang Hongan squatted down and felt in the direction of the donkey's licking. He soon touched a grass-like plant. He picked it up and looked at it under the light and recognized it as alfalfa.

I think some of it must have accidentally leaked out when the villagers were picking grass for the pigs.

Alfalfa, as the king of forage grass, is one of the favorite foods of cattle, sheep and donkeys.

No wonder the donkey would rather risk the pain than not have a meal.

After figuring out the reason, Fang Hongan quickly asked Wang Tong to squat down as well, and the two of them picked up all the alfalfa that had fallen around. Then Fang Hongan took the alfalfa in his hand and shook it in front of the donkey's mouth.

The donkey, which had been so stubborn just now, snorted happily and walked forward happily...

"Brother! You are still the best!" Seeing Fang Hongan subdued the stubborn guy with just one move, Wang Tong couldn't help but give Fang Hongan a thumbs up.

"Shh!"

Fang Hongan suddenly made a hushing gesture to him.

Wang Tong immediately closed his mouth and listened with his ears perked up. He vaguely heard the people in the house seem to be saying words like donkey cart and going to the market.

He quickly held his breath, quickened his pace and walked forward with Fang Hongan!
……

Wang Tong didn't hear wrong.

Now, in that busy house,

The three brothers of the Xie family were talking about the donkey cart at this time.

The reason was that they all heard the sound of a donkey just now.

Today is the day of the market, and the donkey's bray was heard.

The three brothers all knew which family in the village had gone to the market for large purchases today.

The house of the three brothers is on the only way into the village. Over a long period of time, they have become quite experienced in making judgments on this point.

However, although the three brothers' judgment was unanimous here, when they discussed whose family it would be, the eldest and the second oldest of the three brothers suddenly had an argument.

Xie Da Laba: "It must be Xie Chenglin's family! He heard that his youngest son's marriage was settled and the wedding will be held next month. This must be preparing the betrothal gifts in advance!"

Xie Erlaba: "That's not necessarily true. I heard that the donkey's bray in the morning came from the south. It must be Fang Qingfa's family. They are going to start digging the foundation of their new house at the end of the month. They must have gone to the market to buy things to prepare!!"

The two argued for a while, but neither could convince the other.

Xie Da Laba got angry and said, "How about we make a bet and see who is right?"

"Let's gamble! I'm not afraid of you!" Xie Erlaba was not afraid at all.

Xie Sanlaba, who was watching the excitement on the side, instead of trying to dissuade them when he heard about the bet, he clapped his hands excitedly.

"Okay! Just wait! I'll go see who is right!"

Having said that, he stood up and ran to the door in a hurry.

Seeing him running out, none of the two brothers, Da Laba and Er Laba, panicked. They both smiled at each other, looking as if they were sure of winning.

The two waited for a long time.

There was no reply from the third brother outside the door. I glanced at him and saw him standing there rubbing his eyes. He leaned his head to look for a while, then seemed to see something unbelievable, shook his head, and rubbed his eyes again!

Xie Da Laba couldn't stand it anymore, he slammed the table and yelled: "Old Third! Are you dreaming? Did you see it clearly? Tell me whose family it is!"

After being yelled at like that, Xie Sanlaba turned his head in a daze.

"Brother! Brother! Come...come and have a look!" Xie Sanlaba waved his hands absentmindedly, "Why do I think the guy driving the donkey cart is Fang Hongan?"

"Fang Hongan?"

"Go shopping with a donkey cart?"

"That's impossible! Absolutely impossible!"

"You must have seen it wrong!"
