Chapter 342 Dad is scared
When Lu Songli came out of her fourth sister-in-law's house, she saw her mother-in-law waving to her, and Lu Songli walked towards her.
"how's it going?"
"It's okay for the time being." Let's see if she can do the method she taught her fourth sister-in-law, and then see the effect later and make relevant adjustments. This is also the first time she has dealt with this kind of parent-child relationship problem, and she can't
It is guaranteed that the medicine will cure the disease.
Mother Qin nodded and said, "I made clothes for you and Xiaoliu."
"Mom, making clothes is a waste of time. Don't do it again." Lu Songli disagreed with her age that she still had to waste time making clothes. What if she gets presbyopia in the future?
Qin's mother said quickly, "I only need to do my sewing twice a day. It won't take any trouble."
After Qin's mother gave her the clothes, she asked with concern, "Xiao Liu has been out for a long time. Did you say when you will be back?"
Lu Songli told her, "He took the land route this time, so he probably won't be able to come back so soon."
"That's it." She thought about Xiao Liu.
"But don't worry, Mom, he is fine and safe."
"It's good to be safe." Qin's mother noticed a look of exhaustion on her face, "Are you tired? You go and rest first."
"Okay, Mom, I'm going back to the house to rest first." She was indeed very tired today.
Outskirts of Shiwandashan
Xue Xu walked slowly in the forest with two guards and a group of porters.
It wasn't until they reached a high slope with three turns that Xue Xu said to the porters, "Okay, put your things down and you can go back."
When the porters heard this, they put down their picks and left. As they walked further in, they felt very uneasy. It was of course the best to leave now, and the wages had already been settled.
The two guards following Xue Xu looked around. They had nowhere to go and no store behind them. They still had so many things with them. What should they do next?
After the porters left, Xue Xu whistled.
Not long after, two teenagers wearing turf skirts suddenly appeared in front of them, "Second uncle, is it really you?"
These two young men had dark skin, were not tall in stature, and looked like Baiyue people. But judging from their faces, they were still very immature.
Xue Xu said to the two teenagers, "Give me three sachets."
The visitor took three sachets from his body and gave them to him.
Xue Xu handed two of them to the guards and hung one on his waist.
"There are many snakes and insects in the mountains. If we use this sachet, the snakes and insects will avoid us." Xue Xu explained.
When the two guards heard this, they quickly hung up. The name of this smoke-barred place in the south is indeed well-deserved.
Xue Xu said to the two young men again, "Call some more people to bring all these things back to the tribe."
The two teenagers looked at the boxes and cages on the ground, filled with joy.
They asked curiously, "Second uncle, what's in this?"
Xue Xu said in an understatement, "Mainly books, medicinal materials, grain, seeds, cloth and other items."
The two teenagers were even more surprised. These are things that their tribe needs very much!
"Hurry up and call someone, otherwise we won't be able to get back with just the five of us." Xue Xu urged again.
"Second uncle, there's no need to call anyone. Xian Feng has brought the elephants out, right in front. I'll call him to bring the elephants over."
Two quarters of an hour later, each of their group sat on the back of an elephant. Each elephant in front had two baskets or wooden boxes hanging on it. The elephant they were riding followed the elephant team and moved along the winding mountain road.
.
The two guards were in a daze. Don't ask them if they were afraid, just ask them because it was exciting!
"Second Uncle, where have you been in the past three years?" He never came back. Some people in the tribe thought that something had happened to Second Uncle. Only the chief firmly believed that Second Uncle was still alive, but he just didn't know where he was hiding.
"Going to the north."
"Second uncle, I heard that it will snow in the north and it will be very cold, right?"
Xue Xu told them about the geography and climate in the north.
After he finished, he asked, "Who has the best skills in our tribe now?"
"Haha, second uncle, the most skilled person in our tribe, far away but right in front of us, is Xian Feng."
"Yes, Second Uncle, Xian Feng is the most skilled among our younger generation."
Xue Xu looked at the young man leading the way at the front of the elephant team, nodded, and asked, "Among the girls, are there any good ones?"
The two teenagers replied at the same time.
"Yes, I have."
"Alice."
"Alice?" Of course Xue Xu knew who Alice was, but when he left, her skills were average. Could it be that something happened in the past three years?
"Alice is now seven feet tall, and she eats a lot every meal. Her grandma is often worried."
"She is so strong. She can now compete with Xian Feng. Xian Feng is very agile. You can't do anything to me, and I can't do anything to you."
The tribe members were petite, and Alice was an accident. Alice's mother left the tribe once when she was fifteen years old. She became pregnant when she came back, and gave birth to Alice nine months later.
Looking at Alice's current figure, they all suspected that her biological father was particularly tall.
Xue Xu noted this down and planned to go see the people in person after returning to the tribe.
"When my second uncle leaves this time, will you be willing to take you with him?"
"Really? But the chief wouldn't agree."
"You don't have to worry about this. Second uncle will come and talk to the chief."
Houcheng, County Sheriff's Mansion
The Sheriff's Mansion received another message from the Yang family's blacksmith shop that the iron ore was running out.
Lu Songli knew that during this period, all the blacksmith shops in Houcheng were working hard to build threshing machines and other farm tools, which were constantly consuming iron ore. Among them, the Yang family's blacksmith shop consumed the fastest.
Lu Songli looked at her father, thinking about what to say later.
Sensing his daughter's gaze, Lu Desheng cleverly said, "My daughter, our governor is getting more and more difficult to deal with." He hinted wildly, don't let him ask for iron ore again.
The last time he went to ask for iron ore, he had been grinding for a long time, and he was so aggrieved. Since he was promoted by the late emperor, he had never been so humble. He felt sad and had tears in his eyes.
The key thing is that Shi Tao still looked at him with suspicion that he was up to no good.
But who could make Lu Desheng so angry that he looked down on him? Is he the kind of person who makes weapons privately? He obviously has a cold heart! At most, he just protects the Qin family.
Lu Desheng was blind, completely unable to see clearly his daughter's unspoken ambition.
"Dad——"
Hearing this call, Lu Desheng wanted to cover his ears.
"Are you tired? Can I give you a shoulder squeeze?"
"Daughter, don't do this." Dad was afraid.
"It's okay, my daughter hasn't been respectful to you for a long time." Lu Songli walked towards him, flexing her wrist and saying, "Go and make a pot of Dahongpao."
