Farming in space: the struggle of peasant girls

Chapter 115 Chapter 115

Wen Wang's eyes exuded a strange brilliance in the darkness in the distance and the dim light of the nearby torches, and he just looked at Mu Yu steadfastly.

Mu Yu sighed and continued walking with him.

This is absolutely impossible in normal times.

Wen Wang led her to the end of the cave she had seen before. It was a huge natural cave, very tall and big at the top, and even more so at the bottom.

She was staring at the seemingly endless abyss, Wen Wang had already started to walk down a rough path, and turned back to signal her to follow.

Now that I have followed here, the decision has been made long ago, of course I have to follow to have a look.

Wen Wang took her arm and walked into the depths of the extremely dark cave little by little...

No matter how deep the underground cave is, it has an end, and no matter how thick the darkness is, it will be illuminated by torches.

After an unknown amount of time, Mu Yu saw the "secret" that Wen Wang wanted her to see underground.

A dead bone.

Almost instantly, she guessed the identity of this withered bone, Wen Ming's father who suddenly disappeared, and also Wen Wang's grandfather.

When Wen Ming told about his own past before, she was still thinking about where this disappeared person went, and if he escaped, would it cause any trouble in the future, but she didn't expect that the result would come out in just a few days.

It's just that it's an embarrassing and expected result.

He didn't run away, he just died.

Maybe it was an accident and accidentally fell down, maybe it was trying to escape but fell down, in short, it is a foregone conclusion.

Mu Yu calmed down her emotions, looked up at Wen Wang, and asked,

"You didn't tell anyone about this, did you?"

Wen Wang shook his head, "I only told you one person."

"Good boy, don't tell anyone about it, it's a secret between us now."

The only people affected by this matter are Wen Ming's family, or in other words, only Wen Ming alone.

With Wen Ming's pure and kind personality who can pay homage to Uncle Wang who imprisoned them, knowing the news will only add to the sadness.

Wen Wang nodded.

Holding a torch, Mu Yu walked around the surrounding area, but found no other useful information, so he suggested that he could go up and meet with other people.

To be honest, she was really worried that Wen Wang would refuse and show her ugly side.

Although the bricks and machetes she placed in the mustard space were already in place, she really didn't want to do that. Who would want to hurt a child with a good impression for no reason?
But Wen Wang just nodded obediently, then turned and walked up the cave.

She was about to breathe a sigh of relief, when Wen Wang turned back, gently grabbed her arm, and continued to walk up.

It is not strong enough to make her feel uncomfortable or conflicted, but it is just enough to make people feel safe, as if she will be pulled if she accidentally slips.

They went back to the dark room smoothly, and as soon as Mu Yu brushed Wen Wang's hand away, the others came over.

"Master, so you are here, you scared us to death."

"Yeah, don't worry if we can't find you after packing up."

"Village chief, it's okay, why are you here?"

As they said this, they looked at Wen Wang completely differently from when they looked at her, with fear and dissatisfaction.

Wen Wang couldn't detect this, or rather, he could sense something was wrong, but he didn't know why.

Mu Yu didn't want their relationship to be too stiff, so he helped smooth things over and said,

"It's nothing, it's just that I was curious when I saw it last time, so I thought about it this time, and I forgot to tell you, it made you worry."

Hearing what she said, the complexions of the few people got better.

"In the future, if something like this happens to the master's family, it's more or less dangerous to call someone of our own. Wen Wang is still a half-grown child, so he won't be able to help if something happens."

Knowing that they were worried about him, Mu Yu was in a good mood, so he changed the subject and said,

"Let's not talk about that for now. You said that things have been packed. If that's the case, let's go back to the village earlier."

"It's all packed up."

Mu Yu took a look and found that it was almost done.

All the oil, salt, sauce, vinegar, sugar tea and dozens of cotton-padded quilts that could be found were packed neatly.

In addition, there was a small bundle that was put aside, which contained some gold and silver jewelry.

This is only a small part of it. There are a lot of gold and silver ornaments in the darkroom, and many utensils are gilded. Even the bowls, chopsticks and tea cups are mostly silver.

They took away some diversification risks, and most of them still stayed here. Anyway, this place itself is a safe place to hide things.

Mu Yu himself has already hoarded some of his belongings in the mustard space. Gold and silver are also useful, but not so much.

Now that he has these, even if it is only in this small package, he can be regarded as a wealthy family, not to mention that there are so many in the darkroom.

However, in this mountain, they have money and no place to spend it. If they want to maximize the value of these properties, they still have to go outside, for example, Huangsha City.

That's what will happen in the future, at least after spring, winter is impossible.

A group of people returned to the village with supplies, this time it was okay, it was still dark when they came back, it was just evening.

Mu Yu asked Ji Xiucai to count the materials and make records before putting them into the warehouse.

There were neither too many nor too many onlookers, and they all looked surprised and pleasantly surprised.

Ji Xiucai said that these things were obtained through Wen Ming's family, and hoped that they would take care of their family more in the future. Everyone said it was natural.

Wen Ming was also there, and he wanted to say something to those who showed kindness to them, but after 30 years of living in isolation, he was still a little stretched in the face of this situation, so he didn't say anything in the end.

When Mu Yu came back, he found that Wen Ming and Wen Wang were looking at each other, with strange expressions, as if they were communicating in a way that others did not understand.

This is nothing in itself, because there is nothing unusual about the strange experience of this family that others don't understand. What caught her attention was that she seemed to be involved in the communication between the two of them, and they frequently looked at her.

She thought for a while, took the initiative to walk over, and asked curiously,

"Is there anything you want to tell me?"

Wen Ming didn't speak, but just looked at Wen Wang, as if he wanted him to talk.

And Wen Wang looked at her steadfastly, looked away for a while to look underground, and said nothing.

Wen Ming shook his head slightly and sighed.

Mu Yu, on the other hand, looked dazed, and in the end could only watch the two of them walking away with disappointment written in their backs.

Forget it, don't care about this weird father and son who haven't adapted to the outside life, let Granny Chen help to find out if they are in any trouble.

Apart from Wen Ming's family, she has other plans now.

With cotton coats, winter is not so scary.

So in this long winter, you can't really do nothing and just wait for spring to come?

This is not acceptable, so she plans to open a school.
