Reborn as an Ugly Wife in the Countryside Chapter 1312 - 1314: The Incident Site (Part 2)

Xiaoxiao couldn’t help but sigh, "Big cousin, this is indeed quite dangerous, is there no solution?"

"Our family has been doing this for decades. We know precisely how much explosive to use, how many stones can be blasted down, and we don’t start working right after the blast. We always wait for two hours; the firecrackers are set off at noon, during which ti everyone goes for lunch and rest. This sun runs from early morning till night, the mountain’s midday heat offers no shade, and people can’t stand it."

"After the blast, we always check before starting work to see if there are any stones left unblasted. Normally, there’s no issue. This ti, it truly was an accident."

Listening to Zhong Lihui’s explanation, Xiaoxiao was sowhat relieved. It seed they weren’t recklessly blasting the mountain, they had their own thods. If they didn’t, they wouldn’t have been safe all these years; it’s just unfortunate that this accident happened.

Such accidents are beyond control, like an unexpected earthquake or sudden flash flood. Unavoidable events must be faced.

While Zhong Lihui and Xiaoxiao were chatting here, Zhong Dalong remained silent once he arrived at the scene.

His eyes were fixed intently on the spot where the incident occurred, and Xiaoxiao knew her brother was recalling the events at the cri scene. He must be struggling internally, "Brother, this was just an accident, nobody wanted this to happen. If you’re feeling guilty, you should help out the Feng Family more in the future."

Though the Feng Family harbors deep resentnt towards them and took a hundred taels from them, Xiaoxiao understands it’s all because soone died in their family.

Words and actions spoken in the midst of hatred are understandable.

If soone in her family had died, she would probably react the sa way.

Seeing Zhong Dalong in such a state, Zhong Lihui also patted him on the shoulder, "It’s already happened, you need to look ahead."

"Okay." Zhong Dalong nodded heavily, having decided to pull through, but he couldn’t help dwelling on it upon seeing the scene, "I’m fine, you don’t need to worry. Let’s focus on how to get the villagers up the mountain for work."

Seeing Zhong Dalong like this, Xiaoxiao thought he might be able to overco it, and started discussing the matter, "Big cousin, anyway, let’s quickly clean the place up, deal with the blood and everything, so people aren’t scared to co up. Since the incident happened here, draw a line to keep people away from this spot. This mountain seems big enough, if it doesn’t produce stones here, it shouldn’t matter much."

"Yes, even without blasting stones here, it’s still sufficient. I’ll take you back first, then I’ll co up the mountain to sort it out." Xiaoxiao was right, this place can’t be left as it is, or it will constantly remind people of the mountain accident.

Xiaoxiao took another look around, it truly is a good place. No wonder Stone Village seems wealthier than other places; surely this mountain has contributed enormously, providing work without having to leave the village. "Big cousin, let’s head back now. I’ll think over this matter carefully, and listen to the villagers over the next few days before making any decisions. This shouldn’t be rushed."

Zhong Lihui also knew that this matter couldn’t be rushed. Waiting for a while was good; they’ll first deal with the mountain, "Alright, let’s head back now."

With that said, the three headed back, got on the carriage, and set off towards Stone Village.
