Chapter 73: Robbery like a bandit 1

"Really? The old god still gave you such a good treasure?"

The old lady's eyes widened. She couldn't believe that her eldest granddaughter could be so valued by the old god. Not only did she teach her many skills, but she also gave her such a magical treasure.

Treasure bag, this treasure that only exists in legends and myths, can my granddaughter actually own one?

Is this my eldest granddaughter the one that the fortune teller said is rich and blessed?

How lucky is a person who is favored by even the old gods?

Mrs. Qiao excitedly held her eldest granddaughter's hand, suppressed her excitement and whispered:

"Ran Ran, then you put half of the meat into your treasure bag, and then we marinate the rest. We can't put it all in and arouse others' suspicion."

After saying that, she solemnly warned: "Don't tell anyone except me and your mother that you have a treasure bag! Don't let anyone know that you have such a treasure, otherwise, I'm afraid it will cause trouble." Bad people covet you and bring you danger."

"Okay, grandma, I remember."

Qiao Ran was touched by her grandmother's attentiveness and consideration, and under her protection, she hid half of the meat in her own space.

Mrs. Qiao asked Chen Huiniang to marinate the rest of the meat with salt.

Not long after lunch, everyone put away the dishes and chopsticks, and saw Aunt Wang and Xiao Huang on the other side of the thatched hut also packing up and entering the hut. No one from those two families came out again.

The villagers in Qingshui Village winked at each other, leaving the elderly and children behind, while the others quietly took their tools and went down the mountain.

The Qiao family left Qiao Sihai watching the old and young. Qiao Erhe, Qiao Sanhu and Qiao Dong Qiaonan followed Qiao Ran down the mountain.

They took a hoe, a three-tooth rake, a machete, and two large sacks containing grain, and happily went down the mountain together.

There are not many yam vines in this area, and each family can probably dig a few.

But a man was surprised when he saw the vines: "So this is a yam? I also saw a vine like this when I went hunting in the morning, and I was wondering if this small fruit could be eaten! I also picked a few Hey, Ranran, please see if this is the case."

After saying that, the man took out a few small round fruits from his arms.

When everyone heard this, their eyes suddenly lit up. Are there other places where there are yams? Then they can dig some more and take them with them to eat on the road.

Qiao Ran took a look at the round fruits and said, "Yes, these are yam eggs, and they are edible."

She asked, "Where is that yam vine? Is it far from here?"

The man pointed in one direction and said: "It's not far away. Cross the stream and walk a short distance to the mountain on the opposite side.

When everyone heard this, they asked the man to lead the way, and half of the yam diggers followed the man.

The rest of the people are here. The children climbed up the tree to knock chestnuts. Those who couldn't climb the tree picked them up under the tree. The adults who brought hoes and other tools went to dig yams.

Everyone was very motivated, thinking that these were all foods that could fill their stomachs, and their men kept moving, wishing they could move all the food to the mountain immediately.

This time, because they had tools to dig yams, the little monkeys who climbed the trees to knock chestnuts were replaced by half-sized ones, which made them much more efficient.

In less than an hour, the bamboo baskets and sacks brought by everyone were full.

So the strong men decided to carry the yams and chestnuts up the mountain first, and then came over with empty bags and bamboo baskets.

When they went back, they happened to meet the two families halfway up the mountain who wanted to come down the mountain to take a bath while everyone was resting.

Seeing the villagers carrying or carrying the fully loaded bamboo baskets and bags up the mountain, the two families suddenly became red-eyed.

Where do these people get this stuff from? Is it edible? Why didn't you notify the two families?

"Tieniu, what are you carrying? Is it edible? Where did you get it?"

Huang didn't care whether the villagers were waiting to see him or not, so she asked directly.

Zhao Tieniu didn't expect to be discovered by these two families so soon. He thought of the agreement between everyone, and told them now that he discovered it!

So he said: "These are yams and chestnuts. They were discovered by Qiao Ran. She said they are edible. If you also want to dig them with us, don't forget Qiao Ran's contribution and stop being an ungrateful person." , otherwise our whole village will not be able to spare you!"

When the two families heard this, they said with smiles on their faces: "No, no, thank you for telling us. We will naturally be grateful to that girl Qiao Ran."

Inside, he was cursing crazily:

"Damn you stinky girl! You didn't notify us when you found some edible food! And these bullshit folks! They went to find food quietly. It's so abominable! They are all a bunch of damn selfish ghosts, and they have no conscience. !”

The two families didn't care about taking a shower, so they quickly turned back and ran up the mountain. They also took their own hoes, machetes and bags, and followed the villagers down the mountain.

When we entered the forest, we saw that everyone had already dug a large area of ​​yams, leaving only a small piece of land that had not yet been dug.

Most of the chestnuts on the trees have been picked, and the remaining ones are difficult to pick.

The two families suddenly darkened their faces, and cursed Qiao Ran and these selfish villagers crazily in their hearts.

Everyone was busy digging yams and picking chestnuts, and no one had time to care about how ugly the two families looked.

Neither of these two families were economical on fuel. When they saw that there weren't many yams and chestnuts left, they didn't care to curse the villagers and immediately started raiding the village like bandits.

Huang asked the men in the family to dig yams, and asked her two grandsons and granddaughter Qiao Honglian to climb the chestnut trees and knock chestnuts.

He and his two daughters-in-law were desperately trying to pick up fallen chestnuts on the ground. They even tried to grab the ones knocked down by other people's children.

If they hadn't known that the two of them would be kicked out of the village if they behaved like monsters again, they would have immediately grabbed what they had already picked up in their bags.

Huang's most beloved grandson, Goudan'er, walked around freely, only reminding the good grandson not to run around.

The three members of the Wang family were extremely united at this time. Aunt Wang asked Wang Genhuo and her son Wang Lusheng to dig yams, while she took a bag and went to pick up chestnuts knocked down by other people's children under the chestnut tree.

Aunt Wang, Mr. Huang and Mr. Huang's two daughters-in-law, except for the chestnuts that others put in the bags, they didn't dare to grab anything else that fell on the ground. They rushed to pick it up quickly.

Even if it fell next to other women or children and they were reaching out to pick it up, they would snatch it away like hungry tigers.

The women in the village were so angry as they watched the four men robbing them like bandits.

At this moment, they were all very happy. Fortunately, they had the foresight to not tell the two families at first, and they didn't let them know until they picked most of it.

Otherwise, with the two families fighting for each other so shamelessly, I'm afraid they will become even more angry and most of them will be snatched away by these two shameless people.
