Quick Transmigration: The Cannon Fodder's Comeback in the Era Tales Chapter 176: The Sold Daughter 40

When Qian Xiao San heard his aunt say that, his anxious heart instantly settled down.

He said goodbye to his aunt, and just as he walked out of the Ge family yard gate, he saw Yuan Chun coming down from the mountain.

Grinning like a goofy dog, he ran over, "Sister, why didn’t you call to go to the mountain to pick mushrooms with you?"

He reached out to take the basket off his sister’s shoulder and carried it on his own, following his sister back to his aunt’s house.

Yuan Chun said, "I wanted to eat wild chicken mushroom soup, so I took a chance on the mountain and unexpectedly caught two wild chickens."

"Okay, then next ti you go up the mountain, call , I can’t be at ease if you go alone." Qian Xiao San thought his sister was too outstanding and worried those village rascals might play dirty tricks on her, planning to accompany her wherever she goes.

"Then let’s go to the mountain after work tomorrow, it rained the past few days, so many mushrooms have grown on the mountain, let’s pick a lot and dry them and send so to our elder brothers to eat."

"Sure."

Two big wild chickens, one cooked in soup and the other braised, and with the Qian family invited over, were eaten clean.

The next day, Qian Xiao San and Yuan Chun tead up, took on a job worth twelve work points, finished it by mid-afternoon, and headed straight for the mountain with their baskets.

In the fields, a madam whose marriage proposal was rejected saw Yuan Chun and Qian Xiao San head to the mountain together and spitefully couldn’t help but gossip, "That Ge Yuan Chun girl, hanging out with Qian Xiao San every day, alone n and won, who knows what they’re up to."

"They’re siblings, what could they be doing?"

"Bah, they’re not real siblings, why couldn’t there be sothing going on, look at Qian Xiao San’s eyes, almost glued to Yuan Chun’s girl."

"That’s just sibling affection, growing up together, I heard they were desk mates at school, picking so mushrooms together is normal."

A woman friendly with Qian Xiaoying looked disparagingly at the gossiping madam, saying, "I say, Niu Dan’s mother, I heard you went to Xiao Ying’s house yesterday with a proposal and got rejected, are you holding a grudge, intentionally spreading rumors to sar Yuan Chun and the Qian family’s third son?"

"Bah, do I need to sar them, everyone has eyes, just look at their flirty behavior, thankfully I didn’t succeed in proposing, or my Niu Dan would marry a loose woman, wouldn’t that drive one to death from anger?"

"Who are you calling a loose woman, Niu Dan’s mother, is your mouth poisonous or what? Yuan Chun just returned to the village for a few days and you’re already spreading rumors about her purity, if you have guts, say it in front of Xiao Ying’s couple and see if they won’t beat you senseless."

"I’m just stating the facts..."

...

While Yuan Chun and Qian Xiao San were happily catching wild rabbits on the mountain, down at the foot, the Qian and Ge families, along with the Niu family, had gotten into a fight.

When Yuan Chun and Qian Xiao San joyfully returned ho with a basketful of mushrooms each, they saw the Ge family yard crowded with people.

The Qian and Ge families were all disheveled and covered in injuries.

Ge Sangen’s face had scratch marks with blood from fingers.

Qian Xiaoying’s hair was also a ss, looking like a lunatic, with a bruise on her scalp.

Her clothes were torn as well.

The old couple of the Qian family were not in a better condition, Old Man Qian had a sprained hand that was swollen, Granny Qian had a busted lip still bleeding.

"Dad, Mom, Grandpa, Grandma, did you get into a fight with soone?" Yuan Chun’s face darkened, throwing the basket to Qian Xiao San, and went to check the elders’ injuries.

Fortunately, they were all minor external injuries.

A bit of ointnt would heal them.
