Chapter 364 Taking He Yushui to Go Hunting
Wang Jianguo was delighted to see the energetic scene in front of him. He suddenly thought of Brother Zhao who was still on his way.
He looked at the busy crowd again, and then he quickly pulled Cheng Hai to a quieter corner. He patted Cheng Hai on the shoulder and said:
"Brother Hai, you can lead the masters to work first. Look at how enthusiastic they are. There will definitely be no problem with you leading the charge."
"Brother Zhao is driving the ox cart in the back. He will probably be back soon. I'm going to the mountains to hunt some game."
"Let's not let the masters leave at noon, let's have a meal together. Everyone has worked hard to pull bricks along the way, we have to reward them well."
Cheng Hai's eyes lit up when he heard this, and he said with a smile:
"Okay, Jianguo, that's a great idea. Go quickly and come back soon. Be careful!"
Cheng Hai gazed at Wang Jianguo with a look of satisfaction, and there seemed to be a warm stream flowing in his eyes.
The corners of his mouth slightly raised, his voice was filled with undisguised admiration and approval, and he agreed repeatedly:
"Okay, I'll follow your instructions, Jianguo."
"Look at you. You are so young, but you are so thorough and considerate. I really admire you from the bottom of my heart."
Wang Jianguo lowered his head slightly, a faint blush appearing on his face, which was the shyness unique to humble people when they were praised.
He waved his hand gently and said in a sincere and simple tone:
"Brother Hai, please don't praise me so much. I'm not as good as you say. When it comes to being a human being, it's all about putting yourself in other people's shoes."
"When people are good to us, we should know how to appreciate it and give back. We should not let their enthusiasm go to waste or disappoint them."
"No more talking. Time is running out. I have to hurry into the mountains. Otherwise, I won't be able to prepare lunch for everyone."
After saying this, Wang Jianguo started jogging as if pushed by an invisible hand.
He had a slender figure and his steps were brisk and rhythmic, raising a slight cloud of dust behind him.
His figure quickly disappeared into the distance, without any hesitation or stop, and he ran straight towards the production team.
When he arrived at the production team, he walked to the barn skillfully, selected a strong horse, and deftly put the reins and the cart frame on the cow.
He then took out the hunting bows and traps from the warehouse and checked them carefully to make sure the tools were intact.
When passing by Zhao Shuzhuo's house, Wang Jianguo's pace slowed down involuntarily.
He knew that He Yushui must be very worried after he did not return home all night. She in the yard might have been anxiously waiting for news.
Thinking of this, Wang Jianguo decided to walk into the yard and explain the situation to He Yushui so that she could feel at ease.
He gently pushed open the familiar courtyard door and walked in slowly.
I saw He Yushui squatting in the corner of the yard with a wooden basin full of clothes beside him.
Her slender hands rubbed the clothes vigorously in the cold water, and her serious look was touching.
Hearing the sound of the courtyard gate, He Yushui subconsciously raised his head.
The moment his eyes fell upon Wang Jianguo's figure, he was stunned at first, and then an expression of surprise and relief appeared on his face.
She stood up in a hurry, and because she stood up too quickly, she stumbled and almost fell.
After she stood firm, she didn't care about the water on her hands and said to Wang Jianguo anxiously:
"Brother Jianguo, you're finally back! Where did you go yesterday? Why didn't you come back the whole night?"
"You don't know, I was so nervous and worried the whole night."
He Yushui's voice trembled slightly, and her eyes were full of concern and worry, and she looked like a frightened deer.
Wang Jianguo looked at He Yushui's anxious expression and felt a little guilty and pity.
The corners of his mouth slightly raised, revealing a gentle smile, and he said softly:
"Yushui, don't worry. I went to the brick factory with Brother Zhao yesterday, and I thought I would be back early."
"But the journey was quite long, and by the time we were done it was already too late, and the road was difficult to travel on, so we had no choice but to spend the night there."
"I just got back this morning. As soon as I got back, I thought of telling you first, in case you were worried."
"I'm planning to go to the mountains to hunt some game. There are workers working at the supply and marketing cooperative. I'll make them something delicious at noon to improve their meals."
After listening to Wang Jianguo's explanation, He Yushui's worries gradually dissipated. She patted her chest lightly, pouted her lips and said:
"You really scared me to death, Brother Jianguo. Next time this happens, be sure to tell me in advance."
After saying this, she seemed to suddenly think of something, and a hint of excitement flashed in her eyes.
It turned out that she had been staying at home for some time and felt very bored.
When I heard that Wang Jianguo was going to the mountains to hunt, I couldn't help but feel a strong sense of curiosity and yearning in my heart.
Then, she raised her head and said to Wang Jianguo with sparkling eyes:
"Brother Jianguo, can you wait for me for a while? I want to go with you, too. I'm almost bored at home, so it's a good opportunity to go out and get some fresh air."
Without waiting for Wang Jianguo to respond, she quickly brought the washed clothes into the house with quick and neat movements.
Then she found the key in the house, locked the door carefully, and then walked quickly to Wang Jianguo.
With an expectant smile on his face, he set out to hunt in the mountains with Wang Jianguo.
On the way to the mountains, the sunlight shines through the mottled leaves onto the ground, forming patches of light and shadow.
Wang Jianguo slowed down the speed of the carriage slightly, and the scenes of his encounter with Xu Damao and Yan Jiecheng at the brick factory kept emerging in his mind.
After thinking for a moment, he felt that he should tell He Yushui about this.
He turned his head and looked at He Yushui, and said with a slightly serious expression:
"Yushui, when I was at the brick factory, something unexpected happened. I ran into Xu Damao and Yan Jiecheng."
He Yushui's originally calm expression was instantly replaced by surprise, and her mouth opened unconsciously to the point where it seemed like an egg could really fit in.
She widened her eyes and asked in disbelief:
"Why are they in the brick factory? Did they recognize you?"
Wang Jianguo shook his head slightly, with a hint of relief in his eyes, and replied:
"No, I was very careful not to let them see my face."
He Yushui frowned slightly, and the doubts in his heart became even greater. He continued to ask:
"Then why on earth would they be in the brick factory? This is really strange."
