“Coward!” Grandma Liu cursed. “How could I have a grandson like you? Alright, let���s go then.”
Even if her grandson was a coward, he wouldn’t be so silly as to tell others that they were the ones that smashed the Xue family’s watermelons, right?
Liu Kaoshan was speechless.
In the dead of the night, when everyone in the surrounding villages was asleep, Grandma Liu, Liu Guisheng, Liu Guisheng’s wife, and Liu Kaoshan’s wife sneaked out of the village and walked on a small path. They were going to smash the large watermelons on the Xue family’s land.
Liu Guisheng was afraid that his mother would fall so he had to take care of his mother from time to time and support her. When the time came to see a doctor, it would really cost money.
His family was about to go and smash the Xue family’s watermelons. How could Liu Kaoshan fall asleep? He tossed and turned uneasily. In the end, he got up and followed them.
It wasn’t that he wanted to smash it himself, but he wanted to persuade his parents and grandma not to do such a st*pid thing.
He could believe that his wife had agreed to it too!
When Liu Kaoshan caught up with his family under the moonlight, he began to whisper to them in the fields, afraid that they would be discovered. However, no one in the family paid him any attention.
He was so angry that he pulled his wife aside.
His wife was still a little afraid of him, so she didn’t follow him in a hurry. Instead, she stayed by his side.
However, his grandmother, father, and mother were still going up the mountain. He was really worried, so he still chased after them and followed closely. Of course, it was good that he had not been discovered. If they were found out and a fight broke out, he might be able to mediate and help them, so that his family members wouldn’t be beaten to death.
His wife saw him chasing after them, so she naturally followed him as well.
The five of them walked on the fields, getting closer and closer to the mountain.
If it wasn’t for Grandma Liu’s old age, they would have reached there earlier. She dragged Liu Guisheng and the others down and made them walk very slowly.
In Locust Village, the entire village was asleep.
()n such a hot day, even if Xue Yan had put ice beside the bed, it was still hot for four people to lie on one bed. So, Xue Sanfu had moved a bamboo bed to the courtyard and slept there at night.
There wasn’t any ice in the courtyard, but because it was a little windy, the weather was still quite cool. Xue Sihu and the others had originally planned to sleep in the courtyard, but they felt that there were too many mosquitoes, so they decided to sleep in the house.
He did not mind and lit up some mugwort to drive away the mosquitoes. There were still quite a number of mosquitoes in the courtyard, but these mosquitoes were a little strange. They did not dare bite Xue Sanfu.
Xue Wufu often said that Sanfu had copper skin and iron bones. It was so tough that even mosquitoes couldn’t bite through him.
It was true that Xue Sanfu’s muscles were very hard.
Xue Sanfu l s legs were long, so the bamboo bed didn’t match his height at all. Therefore, there was a stool on the other end of the bamboo bed for Xue Sanfu to rest on. Othervvise, he would have to curl up in bed.
While he was sleeping, he had a strange dream. He dreamed that the horses in his stable were so hungry that they were running around in the stable, neighing non-stop. Now, he, who was taking care of his horse like a treasure, immediately woke up.
Xue Sanfu felt that the dream was a little funny. It was late at night, but he thought that it was fine to feed the horse some fodder. He would feel at ease if he did it, so he got up.
He was afraid of waking up his family, so he tried to be as quiet as possible and didn’t make a sound.
However, when he got up from his bamboo bed, the bamboo bed still creaked slightly. What Xue Sanfu didn’t know was that in Jiang Yue’s room, Jiang Yue suddenly opened her eyes from the noise..
