Chapter 152 The Nightmare Strikes
Looking at the heavy sky, Ji Xinmiao began to worry.There is nothing scary about snowing, but Qi Dalang has been in the mountain for the third day, and he is supposed to be home this afternoon, but it is getting dark and there is no one around yet, so she can't let her not worry.

Qi Hongshi burned a nest of bone soup and brought a pot in. Seeing Ji Xinmiao with an anxious face, he called out, "Sister-in-law, don't worry about brother, there are quite a few of them going into the mountain together. Besides, he is also a perennial Those who entered the mountain, I haven’t arrived home today. Is it possible that the mountain has snowed and blocked the road and I have to take a detour. The elder brother said that he will come back today, so he will definitely come back. I made bone soup for you Here comes the pot, and you can cook vermicelli later.”

Qi Hongshi has been watching Ji Xinmiao's restlessness since the afternoon, so she asked her not to cook at night, and took a few shiitake mushrooms that Ji Xinmiao picked, and stewed them together with the bones bought by Qi Erlang, He said that he would send soup over so that she could eat all the vermicelli.

Originally, Qi Hongshi would have eaten with them, but Ji Xinmiao didn't know when Qi Dalang would be home, so he refused.Anyway, she has prepared the vegetables, and with the bone soup sent by Qi Hong, cooking vermicelli is easy.

Knowing that her uneasiness has affected Qi Hongshi, Ji Xinmiao smiled and thanked: "Thank you, I will cook it myself in a while, so go ahead."

Qi Hong knew that this sister-in-law was quite stubborn and would not be persuaded to make a decision, so she smiled and said, "Okay, I'll go back first, and Huzi will call me when something happens, and Erlang is also at home."

Not long after Qi Hongshi left, it was already dark.Ji Xinmiao was anxiously making dinner with the two children, and finally, footsteps were heard in the yard... She put down her rice bowl with a "bang" and stood up.

Ji Xinmiao ran out in three steps at a time, and when she was about to make a sound, Fan Qi bumped in: "Sister-in-law, where are the things?"

"Brother Fan Qi, why did you bring something here? Where's Da Lang?" Seeing that Fan Qi was holding a lot of prey on his hands and shoulders, but Qi Dalang was missing, Ji Xinmiao became anxious.

Fan Qi put the things on the ground beside the water tank and took a breath before saying, "Sister-in-law, brother Dalang may not be home until later. Because it's snowing in the inner mountains this time, many animals come to Zhongshan to look for winter because of cat winter." The food is ready. The net was collected in the morning, and there were quite a lot of things caught, but in the last net, there was a big guy that was not dead after being picked up, and escaped. Brother Hu gave the things to us, So I went after him with Brother Dalang, and told us to send the things back first to tell you, he was afraid that you would be worried. Li Deng went to the Hu's house to drive a carriage, and Cheng and I came back first."

Chasing into Uchiyama?It's snowing in the inner mountains!Ji Xinmiao jumped up in shock.

Seeing that Ji Xinmiao's complexion was not good, Fan Qi immediately comforted her and said, "Sister-in-law, don't worry, they will be fine with Brother Hu, an old hunter here. Put this thing here, I'll go back first?"

Ji Xinmiao didn't hear what Fan Qi was saying, she stared blankly at the dark yard and started a blank...

Qi Erqin also came over when she heard footsteps, and heard Fan Qi say that her elder brother hadn't come home yet, so she came in after he left.

Seeing how worried the sister-in-law was, Qi Erqin knew that her elder brother loved her very much.In the current situation, as long as the eldest brother doesn't come back, no one can comfort him.So he helped her wash Huzi and Ling'er and put them on the kang, and then came out to sit down with Ji Xinmiao.

Ji Xinmiao stayed there for a long time before she came to her senses and saw Qi Erqin accompanying her, so she said gratefully: "Second sister, thank you for helping me. Look at me, I can't take care of little things. It will be messy and make you work hard."

Qi Erqin said understandingly: "Sister-in-law, you are worried about elder brother, which also shows that you have a good relationship with elder brother. It is hard for me to do such a small thing. Don't thank me, or I will be embarrassed. However, elder brother is with you Brother Hu is with you, so you really don’t have to worry about it. It’s also cold today, you’ll get chills if you sit here, sister-in-law should wash up and wait in the house.”

Seeing that Qi Erqin's reminder was reasonable, if Qi Dalang came back at night, she would really catch a cold sitting like this.If she catches a cold, Qi Dalang will definitely send her to the town when he comes back, so how can he have time to rest?

Seeing that sister-in-law was willing to listen to her, Qi Erqin was very happy: "Sister-in-law, I will accompany you later, and I will go back when elder brother comes back."

It is enough to be anxious by yourself, and there is really no need to drag another person to be anxious.

So after declining Qi Erqin, Ji Xinmiao tidied up and got on the kang, leaning against the wall and watching the dimly dancing sparks, every time the lanterns exploded, she could hear the sound of footsteps...

I don't know what time it is, Qi Dalang never came back, Ji Xinmiao just sat there until midnight...

Ji Xinmiao leaned against the head of the bed and fell asleep in a daze. In a daze, she saw Qi Dalang being crushed under the heavy snow, stretching out her hands and calling: "Daughter-in-law, daughter-in-law, give me a hand, hurry up and get me Hold on, I can't take it anymore, daughter-in-law, daughter-in-law..."

The shrill cry woke Ji Xinmiao up suddenly, rubbing her eyes, she turned her head and looked out the window, it was just dawn, and the surroundings were quiet.She had been listening carefully, but there was still silence all around.

Looking back on the dream just now, Ji Xinmiao's brain was even more messed up, her heart was even more disturbed, and she was basically a little restless.Seeing that she was sitting on the bed, she simply got up, she felt that she had to find something to do, otherwise she would go crazy!

Getting off the bed, Ji Xinmiao found that her legs were weak and she couldn't stand up.In order to calm herself down, she kept saying to herself: "He'll be fine, he'll be fine, he must be fine, he knows I'm waiting for him to come back. Believe him, he's fine! Believe in yourself She must be a lucky woman!"

After heating up the brazier, warming up the hot water, and lighting two oil candles, Ji Xinmiao found out the corn sticks on the wall that hadn't peeled off and put them in the bamboo pan, and began to peel them...

When Qi Erqin knocked on the door and came in, she saw a large pot of grains, her eyes became lanterns: "Sister-in-law, you haven't slept all night?"

Ji Xinmiao put on a smile: "No, I fell asleep. I slept for a while, but I really couldn't sleep. Your elder brother hasn't come back yet. I'm always not at ease."

The eldest brother who was supposed to come back yesterday has not come back yet, Qi Erqin was also nervous at this moment, but she couldn't compare to Ji Xinmiao's worry.Seeing that the room was cold at this time, she immediately helped to light up the fire in the stove, and then started to help make breakfast.

Fearing that Ji Xinmiao would be cold, Qi Erqin dragged her to the stove, asked her to help him add firewood, and kept telling her about her childhood, to separate Ji Xinmiao's thoughts.

"Brother, you're back!" Qi Sanlang let out a pleasant surprise, waking up Ji Xinmiao, who can only do mechanical hands, like a fairy music.
