Chapter 12 Little girls also love gossip

"..."

Tang Jianshun and Tang Jianjun covered their faces in shame. If they hadn't heard Tang Tang's voice, they would never have thought of buying the meat on the black market.

"Be careful, don't let anyone recognize you." Tang Guo's chance of winning was acquiesced. He has now figured it out, since he has to be persecuted for his duties, he might as well be selfish and take care of his own family.

"Don't worry dad, we know." The brothers immediately nodded in agreement.

The brothers chopped the wild boar in half and cut the other half into two pieces, put them in snakeskin bags, put on their hats and wrapped themselves tightly before going out.

Before going out, Tang Tang took out the talisman. Under her offensive of tears, the two brothers obediently put the talisman around their necks and promised that they would never take it off. In fact, when Tang Tang took out the talisman, their eyes lit up. I deliberately pretended to be embarrassed because the little girl would be suspicious if I accepted it too easily.

After sending the two brothers off, Tang Tang took the opportunity to give everyone a talisman. Zhuang Shufen said "Don't make my family obediently cry again", so that everyone could avoid acting and accepted the talisman with a smile.

That night, everyone in the Tang family, except for the four children, lay in bed tossing and turning, unable to fall asleep peacefully.

Tang Xiuxiang and Zhuang Shufen couldn't sleep and simply chatted. Tang Xiuxiang told what they had heard about Jiang Yue during the day.

After hearing this, Zhuang Shufen was silent for a long time before asking, "What are you going to do now?"

"Mom, Aunt Jiang's physical condition is getting worse and worse. I'm afraid...Xiao Yue is a good boy. I can't break his heart, nor can I see him helpless."

Zhuang Shufen patted Tang Xiuxiang's hand, "Mom will support you no matter what decision you make, but you have to think clearly before making a decision. Adoption and care are two different concepts."

"Adopting a child is not just about giving him a bowl of rice so that he doesn't go hungry. You have to treat him with the same care as you did with Tangtang. You have to make plans for his future. You have to be responsible for his life."

"I've thought about all this."

"Just think about it yourself."

At about four o'clock in the morning, the two Tang Jianjun brothers quietly went home to make sure they were fine, and bought all the wild boar meat.

The two were very excited. As soon as they entered the door, they chatted about what they had seen and heard in the black market. Tang Tang was woken up, lying on the bed with his head tilted and looking at his uncle in the hall. He yawned and listened to the two of them with relish. say.

[It’s so interesting. It seems like I’m going for a walk. No, I have to convince my uncle to take me for a walk. 】

The little girl also wants to go to the black market?

Tang Jianjun and Tang Jianshun: Okay, I will take the girl for a walk next time during the day. The girl will definitely like it.

Tang Guosheng and Zhuang Shufen frowned: No, we can't let the girl go. What if something happens?

Lin Xiaoyan listened to the brothers' excitement and asked in a low voice with worry on her face, "No one recognizes you, right?"

Tang Jianshun smiled and reassured, "My eldest brother and I were wrapped up like rice dumplings with only one pair of eyes exposed. Not to mention that the place was so dark that even in broad daylight we might not be able to recognize it."

"That's good."

"Today we made a total of thirty-nine and a half yuan." Tang Jianjun excitedly took out the money and handed it to Tang Guosheng, and continued, "Dad, on the way back, my second brother and I have already agreed to go to the mountains to do more tomorrow night. Trap, catch the game and sell it on the black market.”

Tang Guosheng said with disapproval, "Are you still going?"

Tang Jianshun said hurriedly, "Dad, we will be careful. You see, Xiaoyu and Xiaoqian are already 13, Xiaoling is 11, Tangtang should go to school next year, and you are planning to resign from the position of team leader. We don't want to find a way to make money." , what will we do with the children in the future?”    Tang Jianjun also nodded and agreed, “We can’t let the children at home turn their backs to the loess and face to the sky like us.”

yes! Without money, how can these children go to school? If they don’t study, these children will still not be able to leave the mountains in the future.

Thinking about the children at home, Tang Guosheng began to waver, "You two, be more alert. If something happens, you don't need to take the things. I'll run away as fast as possible."

"Dad, we know."

The next day, Tang Tang followed Tang Xiuxiang to the mountains again. Because she knew it was impossible to sneak out to play alone, she obediently sat on the tree stump and meditated, without any thought of sneaking out to play.

After lunch, Tang Jianshun and Tang Jianjun slipped away quietly. Tang Tang lay in Tang Xiu's arms and took a nap. Tang Guosheng and Jiang Yue were resting by the fire and against the big tree not far away.

Next to her, Mrs. Li, who had just finished lunch and was resting on a tree, lowered her voice and chatted with Tang Xiuxiang, "Have you heard about it, Xiuxiang?"

Tang Xiuxiang was afraid of disturbing Tang Tang and deliberately lowered her voice and asked, "What?"

"Chen Zhiqing almost drowned when he jumped into the water last night."

Chen Xueying almost drowned when she jumped into the water?

Not only Tang Xiuxiang was interested in this news, but Tang Tang, who was about to fall asleep, was also interested. He immediately opened his big dark eyes and looked at Sister-in-law Li, waiting for Sister-in-law Li to continue talking.

Sister-in-law Li lowered her voice again, "I heard that when Secretary Su got up to go to the toilet last night, he saw a man standing in the yard. He called out twice and the other person not only didn't respond, but suddenly jumped into the smelly water outside the yard. In the ditch, Secretary Su was so frightened that he ran over to save people, but guess what?"

"What's wrong?" Tang Tang asked a little eagerly.

Tang Xiuxiang lowered her head and saw that the girl in her arms had woken up. "Did we disturb you?"

"Oops! Mom, I'm not sleepy and don't want to sleep." Tang Tang stuck out his tongue at Tang Xiuxiang and looked at Aunt Li obediently, "Aunt Li, what's wrong?"

"Secretary Su ran over and grabbed the man and tried to drag him out. It was as if someone was pulling him out. No matter how hard he tried, he couldn't pull him out. He could only wake up all the people in the educated youth spot. It took several people a lot of effort to pull the person out of the stinking ditch."

"After pulling the person out, everyone saw that the person being pulled up was Chen Zhiqing. When asked what happened to her, she just shook her head blankly and said that she was sleeping in the room and didn't remember anything else."

After hearing what Mrs. Li said, Tang Tang felt so angry!

[This Chen Xueying is really lucky. She was rescued in the middle of the night, but what's the point of being rescued? She was already being targeted. If she didn't find someone to handle the matter, she would still be taken away. 】

"Why did you dive into the water so well?" Tang Xiuxiang touched Tang Tang's head and asked following Sister Li's words.

Sister-in-law Li glanced at Tang Guosheng and saw that Tang Guosheng seemed to be really asleep. She approached Tang Xiuxiang and lowered her voice, "Chen Xueying must have hit something dirty, otherwise she would have gone diving in the middle of the night. What are you doing, and you act like you don’t know anything afterwards?”

"It's also possible that he encountered something unthinkable. He must have been rescued because he didn't want everyone to ask more questions."

Although Tang Xiuxiang knew that Chen Xueying was most likely being targeted by water ghosts, she didn't dare to say such things. People's words are terrible but they cannot be used to catch anyone in their family.

"It's normal for you to be young and not aware of some things. I heard my mother-in-law mention the smelly ditch." Sister-in-law Li glanced at Tang Guosheng again before continuing, "That ditch was used to irrigate the land. The reason why it became a stinking ditch is because people died in it.”

Tang Tang once again interrupted, "Who is it?"
