The struggle history of dressing up as Gone with the Wind

Chapter 665 Iron

The woman looked at the huge valley, wiped the tears from her face, and walked towards the valley step by step with the child in her arms.

When Guo Xiu got home, he put the child on the bed, sat on the stool and refused to get up.

Cao Shi looked at the flushed woman and poured her a cup of tea with a smile; "Are you tired?"

"Yeah!" Guo Xiu took the tea and drank it in one gulp.

Xiao Shitou glanced at his eldest brother and sister-in-law, then turned his head and continued to play with the two of them.

As soon as the two came back, Dou Dou and He Hui came to the door.Guo Xiu glanced at the two people who came together, and her thoughts changed slightly. Could it be that something happened in the valley?She sat and didn't move. If she couldn't listen to what they were talking about, He Hui and He Hui would talk.

"Sister-in-law, are you tired from this trip?" Dou Dou looked at her and said with a smile.

"No, I'm so tired that I don't want to move anymore!"

Cao Shi put down the bamboo cup and looked at his two younger brothers, "Did you come here for something?"

"I do have something to tell my brother."

After Guo Xiu heard this, she knew that she had to avoid it, so she stood up, hugged Nuomi, and led Xiaoshi out.

Cao Shi watched the three women go out and looked at the two younger brothers; "Now we can talk!"

"Brother, there was a message from Hui Niang in the afternoon." He Hui looked at Cao Shi and whispered.

"Huiniang? Who is Huiniang?"

"It's Daniel's wife." Dou Dou hastily explained to Cao Shi.

"Seeing that you two attach so much importance to it, I wonder what news she is passing on?" Cao Shi looked at his two younger brothers and asked curiously.

"Huiniang said that Da Niu and Er Niu have iron in their hands, and they have a lot of it."

Cao Shi stood up abruptly after hearing this; "Is the news true?"

"Huiniang is the person I placed next to Daniu with the help of Mrs. Wan. Since she has sent the news, it can't be false." He Hui looked at Cao Shi and said cautiously.

"What are they trying to do? Have we misunderstood them?"

"I don't think it's too early to draw conclusions. If they really have a lot of iron in their hands, coupled with their craftsmanship, then there will be no shortage of farm tools and weapons in our valley."

"What have they been doing recently?" Cao Shi looked at his third brother and asked.

"There is no abnormal behavior. During this period of time, they either forged iron or went into the mountains to dig up the three acres of land they cleared."

He Hui's eyes flickered slightly when he heard the third brother's words; "Do they often go up the mountain?"

"Hmm! Isn't this normal?" Dou Dou looked at the second brother scratching his head and asked in confusion.

"It's normal for others, but it's a bit abnormal for the three of them. They usually make a living by blacksmithing, and now it's not the time for spring planting and autumn harvest. Even if the field is dry, weeding is difficult. You don’t have to go up the mountain often.”

"Second brother's words are really abnormal." Dou Dou frowned and began to think.

"Do you suspect that they went into the mountain to transport iron?" Cao Shi looked at He Hui and asked.

"I think it's very likely."

"Big Brother, Second Brother, do you want me to send two good hands to monitor them? What's the purpose of seeing them get iron from there?"

Cao Shi and He Hui glanced at each other quickly; "Daniu and the three are all shrewd people, so the person who monitors them must be selected well, and they must not miss their feet. It would be bad if they rubbed against them."

"Elder brother, second brother, don't worry, I will definitely be careful."

Seeing that Cao Shi and Cao Shi had no other orders, Dou Dou left in a hurry.

In the main hall, Cao and Shi looked at each other and sat down; "I don't know if this is a blessing or a curse for us."

"Brother, don't worry. Although I can't figure out why they have iron in their hands, there is one thing I can be sure of. They are not evil people."

Cao Shi looked at his confident second brother and nodded.

"I believe you!"

The two brothers looked at each other and laughed.
