Tiger, I rejected the iron rice bowl.

When Wang Yuyu was out of sight, Tang Li remembered Fan Zhengcheng and the other two who had rolled down the hillside. She quickly ran to the roadside, craned her neck to look down, and shouted, "Uncle Fan, Uncle Ji, are you alright?"

Fan Zhengcheng and his two companions, who were working hard to climb the ladder, were overjoyed and wept with joy upon hearing Tang Li's words!

Fan Zhengcheng quickly looked up and called out, "Xiao Tang, we're fine, don't worry about us!"

Ji Yongjun also shouted, "Xiao Tang, just focus on your job, don't worry about us, we'll be up here soon!"

"Okay!" Tang Li breathed a sigh of relief upon seeing that the three were alright, and quickly added, "Uncle Fan, come up quickly, I'll have someone from down the mountain send a car to pick us up!"

"knew!"

Fan Zhengcheng responded and quickly climbed up, not wanting his men to see him in such a disheveled state.

Tang Li returned to her car and called the people guarding the foot of the mountain, asking them to send a tow truck to take them away.

After a long while, Fan Zhengcheng and the other two finally climbed up the slope.

As soon as he arrived, Fan Zhengcheng looked around, trying to find the culprit, Wang Yuyu.

Tang Li knew what he was up to as soon as she saw him.

Isn't it just that he's not convinced and wants to settle scores with Wang Yuyu?

Wang Yuyu is her precious baby. She saw this and couldn't remain indifferent. She could only clean up Wang Yuyu's mess.

"Uncle Fan, stop looking. Your secure job is gone!"

"What? He got away?" Fan Zhengcheng was startled, then snorted angrily, "Hmph, he's lucky he ran fast, otherwise, I would have shown him how serious the consequences of assaulting a police officer are!"

Seeing Fan Zhengcheng shamelessly patting himself on the back, Tang Li didn't bother to call him out on it, rolling her eyes and saying, "Yes, yes, Uncle Fan, you're the best!"

"His secure job is gone, so please be magnanimous and forgive him!"

"Speaking of which, you brought this on yourselves. Who told you to make fun of the 'iron rice bowl' (guaranteed job)!"

"So what if you laugh? You're secretly laughing even with a secure job, as long as he doesn't see or hear it, nothing will happen!"

"Of all people, you had to laugh in front of those with secure jobs, and you even laughed out loud, letting them catch you!"

"You all know how petty and vengeful people can be with a secure job, don't you?"

Tang Li's words left Fan Zhengcheng and the other two speechless. They all looked away awkwardly, without saying a word.

Seeing their reaction, Tang Li knew the matter was over and didn't say anything more.

Not long after, a tow truck arrived and took away the damaged vehicles and people.

…………

A few days later, Wang Yuyu stood by a stream that was mostly frozen over, with only a trickle of water remaining in the middle, and drank the water.

Suddenly, the sound of footsteps crunching in the snow came from the woods across the stream, which Wang Yuyu's sharp ears caught precisely.

"Someone's there?!"

"There are still people here?!"

Wang Yuyu was startled. Forgetting about drinking water, she quickly darted into the woods behind the building and hid behind a bush to observe secretly.

Not long after, not far downstream, the three people slowly emerged from the woods and stood by the stream, looking around.

One man and two women, all carrying small baskets on their backs, looked like a family.

These three are indeed a family. The two older ones are a married couple; the man's name is Zhu Chuanwu, and the woman's name is Han Li.

That young woman was their youngest daughter, Zhu Yushu.

The family of three came up the mountain to collect local products and also to film footage for their daughter's video account.

Zhu Yushu was holding a portable camera in her hand, and there was also a drone in her backpack, which made it convenient for her to shoot from the air.

It's worth noting that the snow-covered forests of Northeast China are also very attractive.

Especially in remote, secluded forests, the more untouched they are, the more attractive they become.

Zhu Yushu's account attracted a lot of traffic because of this.

You said that if you don't hibernate in the dead of winter, what kind of mountain products can you pick in the mountains?

Actually, there are still plenty of mountain produce in winter. In the past, we could set traps to catch wild animals, but that's no longer possible. Now we can only pick white lingzhi and roasted horse mackerel.

If you're even luckier, you might even spot poplar yellow and birch polypore.

There are also the raw materials from Northeast China for making beads and coffee tables, but those all depend on fate.

Every time Zhu Yushu goes into the mountains to collect local products, he posts them in videos and sells them to his fans.

This is also one of their family's sources of income.

It's fair to say that their family can earn a considerable amount from a single trip into the mountains.

The key is that you can earn money from home, and your daughter is with you.

It's much better than going out to work and only seeing each other a few times a year.

The cost of living in the small mountain village is not high. Everything they eat, live in, and drink is grown by the villagers, so the profit margin is quite high!

"Dad, Mom, let's rest here for a while and make something to eat. I'm starving after walking for so long!"

Zhu Yushu touched his belly and said with a smile.

"Okay, let's cook and rest here for a while!" Zhu Chuanwu nodded in agreement.

Han Li didn't say anything, put down her basket, and took out the dry food she had prepared at home.

Wang Yuyu hid in the shadows, listening to the three people's conversation. Knowing that they were not bad people, she didn't take it to heart.

So he swaggered out of the woods and came to the stream to continue drinking water.

His appearance startled the three people on the other side of the river.

Zhu Yushu was quite frightened when he saw Wang Yuyu's enormous size. He was about to speak up to warn his father when his mother covered his mouth.

Han Li appeared beside her daughter without her noticing, covered her mouth, and pulled her back slowly.

Zhu Chuanwu, holding a knife, stood guard beside the mother and daughter, nervously watching Wang Yuyu.

Wang Yuyu also noticed the three people's every move and watched with great curiosity.

He wanted to know what this family of three would do if they encountered a tiger.

Will it climb a tree?

Ancient people called tigers "big insects," is that how they came to this conclusion?

Seeing that Wang Yuyu was busy drinking water and hadn't noticed them, Zhu Chuanwu and his family of three quickened their pace and retreated into the woods.

As Zhu Yushu passed by his own basket, he also took the drone.

The three of them quickly climbed a big tree and watched Wang Yuyu nervously.

After finishing his water, Wang Yu looked up at the three people clinging to the tree, and then at the three baskets left behind.

After thinking for a moment, Wang Yu went straight into the water, wading through the shallow stream towards her basket.

The cool, refreshing stream water washed over Wang Yuyu's feet, making her feel extremely comfortable.

After walking so much, his legs started to ache.

Approaching Han Li's basket, Wang Yu leaned closer and sniffed it carefully. Besides the smell of mountain produce, there was also the aroma of some other food.

"There's food!"

Wang Yuyu's eyes lit up. She raised her paw and gently patted the basket to the ground, causing most of the contents to spill out.

They have everything from compressed biscuits, chocolate, energy bars, sausages, canned luncheon meat, nuts, self-heating rice, and more – all kinds of modern food are available.

But there was nothing that Wang Yuyu could eat.
