Chapter 138 Going up the Mountain

Early in the morning, thirteen people dressed in thick clothes went directly into the mountain.

In the past, people may not have been willing to let female educated youths go into the mountains, mainly because they were worried about their safety.

But since Song Moting took these male educated youths to hunt in the mountains, these people have become more and more courageous. Even wild boars can be beaten back, so what do they have to worry about? It feels like there is strength in numbers.

So today I took two female educated youths into the mountains.

The sky was overcast.

The north wind is blowing, making people feel that this kind of weather is a precursor to the coming of heavy snow.

Jiang Xiaoxiao followed Jia Shu, and the two of them walked into the forest, one foot deep and one foot shallow.

This was the first time for the two of them to come to the woods.

Of course I've been to Woodland.

But woodlands and dense forests are completely different.

In most cases, forest land is not in densely wooded areas.

Although there is little sunshine all year round and it is relatively cold, the forest land is at least open.

But the woods are completely different. They are dense forests on the mountains, thick with vegetation, and because of the cold climate here, there are some places where snow remains all year round.

Even though the first heavy snow here hasn't fallen yet, there are some places in the forest where the depth of snow is scary enough.

Jiang Xiaoxiao could feel the coldness of his fingers even while wearing gloves.

Rub it and smile at Jia Shu, who looks over with concern.

"It's okay. I haven't started working now, and my blood is not flowing, so I feel cold. After a while, I will actually start chopping trees and wood, and I guess I won't feel so cold anymore.

"

Because the forest farm has regulations, there is a certain area where they can cut down trees, and they can only cut down specific trees within this range.

Otherwise, future tree growth in the forest farm will be harmed.

The forest farm has strict rules and regulations, but sometimes people still violate them. But as long as it's not a big mistake, generally speaking, forest farms don't care too much. However, these educated youths still managed to abide by the rules.

When I came within this range, I discovered that this side is equivalent to the south.

This place to the south of the mountain has plenty of sunshine, so trees naturally grow very quickly.

Therefore, the trees they can cut down are also within this range. As long as they plant trees after cutting them down, they will not damage the environment much.

Especially in this place, after some lightning strikes, many trees were knocked down by lightning strikes, and these trees have long since dried up.

When they came, the first thing they did was to cut down the fallen and dry trees.

After all, it has been dried out in the sun. If it is burned back, it will be very useful as fuel.

Several people immediately gathered around the trees and began to work together. The trees had fallen to the ground and were naturally easy to cut.

Of course, remove the small branches first, and then cut the large and thick trunks into several sections.

The boys would carry them back, or drag them with ropes to the yard, where they would be processed into small pieces of firewood.

Jiang Xiaoxiao and Jia Shu found a small tree. They were only strong enough to do this.

Jiang Xiaoxiao was holding an ax at one end of the tree, trying to remove the thin branches.

I haven't done this job for many years, but seeing this scene really made my blood boil.

It’s not that she is a masochist, it’s because she has done this job for many years.

After all, he is experienced.

With one stroke of the ax, she chopped off those small branches. Jia Shu was a little worried about her.

She knew that Jiang Xiaoxiao had been pampered and raised at home, so how could he do such a heavy job?

She suspected that it was mainly because she was afraid that Jiang Xiaoxiao would hurt herself with the axe.

Unexpectedly, when he turned around, Jiang Xiaoxiao was actually very neat in what he did there, and when he saw the person lifting the ax, the branches fell apart very neatly.

I couldn't help but shake my head and sigh.

Some people are just talented and can do anything at a glance, but they are not like me, they are stupid enough.

This time, he concentrated on using the ax to deal with the branches on his side.

When the two men cut the small tree into several sections and tied it up with rope, it became a big bundle.

Jia Shu looked at it and said, "I'll carry the firewood back, and you can help them tidy up the thin branches here."

Jia Shu was afraid that Jiang Xiaoxiao wouldn't be able to do heavy work.

Jiang Xiaoxiao did not refuse Jia Shu's kindness. After all, her body was not the body of her previous life.

In my previous life, I had gone through so many years of suffering and polished my body, so of course I was not afraid of any heavy work.

But I have been pampered all my life. No matter what kind of work is done with this body, especially heavy work, it will be very tiring.

Although I tried hard to change my life in my previous life, there were some things that just couldn't be changed.

The past few months of farm life were not enough for her to fully adapt to this body.

At this moment, she saw Song He Aiguo and Gu Dali cutting down a big tree.

He immediately jumped in to help.

He Aiguo glanced at Jiang Xiaoxiao, and out of the corner of his eye, he saw Jia Shu, who was carrying firewood and walking down the mountain.

"Xiaoxiao, you and Dali are chopping firewood here. I'll send the bundle of firewood back and I'll be back soon."

As he spoke, he picked up the firewood pile that was as tall as two people and strode down.

Jiang Xiaoxiao pursed her lips and smiled. She always thought that He Aiguo and her eldest brother were definitely the best friends in their previous lives.

But it seems that He Patriot's orientation is absolutely correct. What he likes is women.

Myself, I have been thinking in the wrong way.

In the previous life, He Aiguo and his elder brother were assigned to a farm, while I and Jia Shu were assigned to a farm.

Perhaps it was the result of the flapping of wings after I came back, and many things changed. My elder brother did not come to the farm, but He Aiguo was assigned to the farm with me and Jia Shu.

In other words, He Aiguo and Jia Shu had no intersection in the previous life, but they have feelings for each other in this life.

Both of them came from poor families.

They are both people who are not loved by anyone.

In fact, there is nothing wrong with two people keeping each other warm. He Aiguo's personality and Jia Shu can complement each other. He Aiguo has a cheerful personality and is kind, while Jia Shu is quiet and steady. If the two are together, they are actually a good couple.

In the previous life, both of them lived a miserable life. If the two can be together in this life and walk a new path, maybe both of them can find happiness.

She believes that He Aiguo can bring happiness to Jia Shu.

Besides, I didn't match the two people. They are in a free love relationship, which has nothing to do with her.

This should be called a match made in heaven, and the only thing he wanted to do was to allow the two of them to return to the city smoothly in the future and get everything they deserved.

Jiang Xiaoxiao was chopping the tree hard, and this tree was different from the one he had just chopped.

That tree should have been completely dry, and it was very easy to chop, but this tree seemed to be half dry, and the axe was embedded in the trunk when he chopped it down, and the trunk was not chopped down.
