Chapter 427 Meeting on the Mountain
The conversation between Zheng Pengcheng and Fang Dong was all seen clearly by Liu Jingxue's spiritual sense when she led the villagers into the mountains at around 2 o'clock.
I have to say that both of them are talented in acting and are good at making up lies.
If I hadn't known about the two of them for a long time, I would have believed what they said.
It seems that Fang Dong has been lured away by the man named Zheng. Should we remind Zhou Mingxuan not to ignore this man, lest he accidentally fall into trouble?
"Let's remind you."
Liu Jingxue's spiritual sense also discovered Zhou Mingxuan and Zhao Junhao who were chopping wood deep in the forest.
She felt a little strange.
Why did these two run so far to chop wood? They were not like me, who had plenty of strength and space to cheat. Carrying the wood down the mountain was hard enough for them.
There is no need to prepare firewood for the winter at this time, and the main people collecting firewood are the elderly and children who do not have to work.
For safety reasons, these people would only collect firewood outside the mountain and would not go anywhere further away.
If they wanted to avoid areas frequented by people and find places with more firewood, they only had to walk a little further inside. They didn't have to walk that far.
The distance between the two of them now would take them to the deep mountains if they walked a little further.
When Liu Jingxue entered the mountain, Zhou Mingxuan had already told Zhao Junhao all the secrets. At that time, she was still in the space, so naturally she didn't know the purpose of the two people running so far.
At this time, the firewood they had collected was enough for two people to carry in one trip. Zhou Mingxuan said to Zhao Junhao, "Haozi, this firewood is enough for us to carry in one trip. Let's carry the firewood back first."
Zhao Junhao looked at the bundled firewood and said, "Okay, let's transport it back first.
We ran far enough this time. Next time we go into the mountains, we shouldn’t run so far, or we may have to go back a long way.”
"Okay, it's up to you."
The two men worked together to bundle the newly picked firewood, divided it into two loads, and each carried one load as they walked down the mountain.
Thinking of reminding Zhou Mingxuan about the affair between Zheng Pengcheng and Fang Dong, Liu Jingxue adjusted her direction and when they were about to pass this section, she came to the road they had to take to go down the mountain.
Zhao Junhao, who was walking in front, spotted Liu Jingxue first. He said to Zhou Mingxuan who was behind him, "Mingxuan, Liu Jingxue Liu Zhiqing is in front."
Upon hearing this, Zhou Mingxuan looked up and saw Liu Jingxue.
"Then stop for a moment and say hello to her.
I plan to tell her about the Zheng family's affairs to reassure her.
I told her before that Zheng Pengcheng had his eyes on her and might do something bad to her or her family, so she must have been worried.
Zheng Pengcheng has indeed been trying every means to get close to her during this period, which further proves what I said.
The Zheng family probably can't spare any effort to deal with her right now, so I have to tell her so she doesn't have to worry about it."
Zhao Junhao looked around and said, "Those villagers are quite far away from her. As long as we keep our voices down, they won't be able to hear us."
Zhou Mingxuan thought for a moment and said, "Why not tell her that our family has sent something to Grandpa and her, and ask her to wait here. We will go into the mountains and bring it to her later.
I also gave her my grandfather's things and asked her to pass them on.
It's better to leave it with me in case someone named Zheng breaks in one day and sees it and becomes suspicious.
Or maybe someone took advantage of the chaos on the day of the move and rummaged through it, exposing his tracks."
"I think it's feasible."
Liu Jingxue came here deliberately to stop them, so she naturally used her spiritual sense to watch them.
She heard their conversation.
Liu Jingxue frowned. It seemed that Zhou Mingxuan had told Zhao Junhao that his grandfather was here and that he had been in contact with her before. Otherwise, he would not have mentioned his grandfather in front of him, and that his family had sent him a package and brought things to her.
But when did this person say this, and why hasn’t it been discovered before?
However, Liu Jingxue did not keep worrying about this. After all, her monitoring range was limited and it was not 24 hours a day, so it was normal to miss something.
Zhou Mingxuan told Zhao Junhao such a secret matter, which seemed to show that he trusted this brother very much.
But his trust is his business. Liu Jingxue cannot entrust her own life, the life and property of her uncle, aunt and Grandpa Zou to this man.
She wasn't familiar with him and didn't know much about him.
No matter how familiar you are with the matter, you cannot be careless when it comes to matters of life and death.
Liu Jingxue decided to put a ban on Zhao Junhao so that he could not reveal this to anyone else, not even in his sleep.
Thinking of this, she immediately made some hand gestures before the two men came close to her, and when the two men walked not far in front of her, she silently cast the hand gestures on Zhao Junhao.
Only after doing all this did she breathe a sigh of relief.
Zhao Junhao didn't notice the spell entering his body. He smiled and greeted Liu Jingxue, "Liu Zhiqing."
Liu Jingxue pretended to have just heard the voice and looked over. After seeing the two people clearly, she quickly responded, "It turned out to be Zhou Zhiqing and Zhao Zhiqing.
You have finished collecting firewood and are preparing to go down the mountain."
"Prepare to send a batch down and come back later," Zhao Junhao replied.
Seeing that there was no one around, Zhou Mingxuan put down the load on his shoulders and asked Zhao Junhao to put it down as well.
"Liu Zhiqing, my family has sent me a package, and there are some things in it for you and grandpa.
I don't think you'll leave this area for the time being. I'll bring the things to you later.
I'll trouble you to pass on grandpa's things, but I can't go over now." Zhou Mingxuan said in a low voice.
Liu Jingxue looked towards Zhao Junhao with deliberate hesitation.
Following his gaze, Zhou Mingxuan saw Zhao Junhao and understood what she meant.
He quickly explained, "I have already told Haozi about grandpa and you.
Don't worry, he won't tell anyone."
“Give Grandpa Wu’s things to me, and I’ll pass them on for you.
You don't need mine, you can keep it for your own use, there's no need to spend money on it."
When Zhao Junhao heard this, he thought of the women's leather shoes and the braid, and how Zhou Mingxuan wore them for himself, and he couldn't help laughing out loud.
"Hahahaha, Liu Zhiqing, Mingxuan really can't keep those things for himself, unless you want to see him wearing bras and women's leather shoes.
He can’t even fit in there.”
When Liu Jingxue heard this, she couldn't help but laugh.
She didn't expect that the Zhou family had prepared this for her, and she said the wrong thing.
Zhou Mingxuan looked at his good brother who was laughing at him and said angrily, "Shut up."
After saying that, he turned to look at Liu Jingxue and said, "You heard it too, I really can't use those things myself.
I know you don’t need these things, but they are a gift from my family and I hope you won’t refuse them.
We really have no way to repay your kindness to our family. We can only give you some worthless things to express our gratitude.
It’s also about seeking peace of mind.”
After hearing what Zhou Mingxuan said, Liu Jingxue felt that it would be bad if she insisted on not accepting it, so she could only say, "Okay then, but you should tell my aunt not to be so polite in the future."
