The late mother's intuition told her that Feng Lan was by no means a simple woman.

*

Early the next morning, Ji Liangqing organized his team and took everyone to the stream where the traps were dug.

The men were going there and would not come back until the afternoon at the earliest. Most of the men were missing from the camp, making it seem a lot deserted.

At this time, the camp was dominated by women.

The daughters-in-law of the Ji family were busy cleaning up the housework and organizing things, while the rest of the family were either busy or just sitting there chatting.

Of course, today is different from the past. Now the topic they chat about is whether the security team can catch some good prey.

The wife's eyes were darting around, wanting to find out some news about this village.

Before following Fu Qiang, she had already quietly inquired about the current strength of the village. After learning that a security team had been formed in the village and there were weapons at hand, she felt much relieved.

But it was obvious that the security team had a leadership core. Before that, she needed an insider to provide her with some information.

It's a pity that Feng Lan is too transparent and doesn't care what she does. She has no choice but to search for suitable people.

Fortunately, she was lucky and soon found a young daughter-in-law sitting not far away.

The young daughter-in-law noticed that she had not been there for a long time. There were no children around her. She was sitting alone in that area and did not join in the chatting of the women.

The wife thought for a while and asked her son Lian'er not to move where she was, while she slowly tried to talk to her little wife.

The younger daughter-in-law disliked her very much and always used words to attack her, but Wan Niang had a deep scheming mind and she could take the insult with a smile.

After going back and forth for a few times, the young daughter-in-law felt that she was a little too much, so she was embarrassed to talk to her anymore. The wife climbed up the pole, and she half-nudging her to start chatting with her.

Wan Niang first asked some other questions to cover up, and finally started asking about the internal relations in the village that she wanted to know about.

What she cares about most is of course:

"Which family does the captain of the security team belong to?"

There was a smile on the corner of the bride's lips, and there was some calculation in her eyes.

She heard Fu Qiang mention it yesterday that he was the captain, so she knew in her heart that their security team actually had a captain.

The security team protects the safety of the whole village and is also responsible for finding food. There are so many things that are responsible for it, which shows that the captain's power should be very great.

The late wife was very confident in her appearance. The people in Niutou Village had sharp eyes, so in fact they were right. She was indeed born in a Goulan brothel.

She was sold to a brothel by her father who was addicted to gambling since she was a child because she had a pretty face. However, she was scheming and resourceful, and she never had a bad life after being able to accept customers.

After living enough of relying on the benefactor, she coaxed him to redeem his life and married an honest man who raised children.

However, she was a promiscuous woman, and when she gave birth to a son, she was not sure whether the child was her husband's. When her husband found out the truth, she was so angry that she couldn't bear it, and he passed away not long after.

But even if she killed her husband, the men in the surrounding villages were still attentive to her, and the mother and son lived a very good life.

If it weren't for this epidemic, I'm afraid she could have raised Lian'er with the attentiveness of the men.

So this time her purpose of asking about the captain of the security team was obvious - she wanted to capture the captain of the security team.

The captain of the security team shoulders such an important responsibility. If she can make the captain of the security team show courtesy, will mother and son still worry about having nothing to eat?

This useless thing Fu Qiang is unreliable. He is just a springboard for her to stay here and get close to the captain of the security team.

"That's Ji Liangqing." The little daughter-in-law said subconsciously without thinking too much.

Speaking of Ji Liangqing, the young daughter-in-law showed appreciation in her eyes:

"He is very capable! He took us to catch wild boars and rabbits before. He is good at hunting. This time he took us to dig traps. Today we just went to see if there is anything in the traps."

Can you hunt wild boars and rabbits?

Every time these three words came out, the queen's eyes became brighter.

"Then his family is really lucky..." Wan Niang asked tentatively.

The little daughter-in-law is not as smart as she is, and she was immediately tricked into saying:

"Well, look, that's the captain's house over there. What Mrs. Ji is holding in her arms is the captain's daughter. He always misses his daughter."

The younger daughter-in-law even pointed the direction of Ji's house to the late mother-in-law.

The late wife looked in the direction she pointed and saw Mrs. Ji's family.

It turned out to be them——

Wan Niang remembered very clearly that it was this family that Fu Qiang went to borrow food first last night, but it was a pity that the fuss was very unpleasant.

No wonder I went to borrow food from their house first! It turns out that this is the captain’s family, the most prosperous family, so why don’t you borrow food from his house?

"The captain only has a daughter?" She paused, her eyes lit up, and she felt she had found a breakthrough.

What man doesn’t want a son these days? Without a son, he will never be able to hold his head high, and his career will be cut off in the future!

But I can give birth to a son!

Wan Niang found another competitive edge in herself.

The little daughter-in-law did not expect that her observation point was so unique, and she immediately said with speechless eyes:

"Who said that? That's his little daughter. He also has an eldest son. He used to be very good at reading. If it weren't for the fact that we were fleeing the epidemic, we would have to go to the academy to learn reading."

When these words came out, Wan Niang's hot heart quenched a little.

They can read and are old enough to go to school, at least five or six years old.

But it doesn't matter... She is determined to work harder because of her greed. From the current point of view, in this small period of her life, she has never met a man that she cannot conquer.

Ji Miaomiao opposite seemed to feel something, and sneezed twice in succession. Seeing this, Mrs. Ji quickly hugged her tightly:

"Oh, my dear, are you cold? But it's not cold today either!"

Wang Xueyan chuckled: "Look, Miao Yatou is cold. Her father is clearly thinking about her. How cold is it today?"

For this reason, everyone in the Ji family smiled.

They are enjoying themselves happily now, but little do they know that some uneasy people have already targeted their family and want to break their happiness.

On the other side, the people in the security team were rushing forward with excitement, walking very fast one by one. If the road in the forest was not inconvenient, they would probably want to run even more.

They were anxious. They dug so many traps that day and were eager to check and accept the results.

Only Fu Qiang was absent-minded.

I don't know if Wan Niang and Lian'er are used to being here with strangers... After he came out, they didn't even have anyone to talk to.

Fu Qiang had already sneaked over to see it yesterday, and he also brought Wan Niang and her son back with him, so he wasn't as excited as the others.

In his mind, he still felt that there was probably nothing there, so there was no way so much could have fallen in in one night, right?

Reason told him no, but psychologically he hoped for it, and he was still thinking about Wan Niang and her son. Fu Qiang's brain was almost exhausted.

Wang Goudan was completely different from him. Wang Goudan had a good attitude and felt that there must be someone in the trap. When he was about to arrive, he would jump the highest.

Li Jiang and Ji Liangqing are not that out-of-the-box. They are relatively calm.

But when they saw the grass that had not changed much, both of them had a hint of disappointment on their faces.

The grass will change when something falls. Now the grass has not changed at all, which means there is nothing in the trap.

"How's it going? Captain, Brother Jiang, do you think there's anything inside?" Wang Goudan turned around and asked.

Ji Liangqing and Li Jiang shook their heads truthfully.

The two of them were authoritative. Seeing them shaking their heads, everyone had disappointed expressions on their faces.

"Ah——" the voice also contained regret.

This trap is on the road with wild boar footprints, and is the most likely trap to catch wild boars.

If there are no wild boars in this trap, the probability of wild boars in other traps is also very low.

The main force was wiped out, everyone's faces showed disappointment, and Fu Qiang felt that this was expected.

He just came here yesterday to check it out. There was nothing here yesterday. It makes no sense that it would happen overnight, so it is normal.

"It's okay, isn't it just that there are no wild boars in one trap? It doesn't mean there are no wild boars in the other traps!"

Wang Goudan was very optimistic and raised his voice.

"Yes, we haven't looked at the other three traps yet! How would we know if we didn't look at them?"

"That's right, let's check out the other two traps too!"

Everyone had smiles on their faces again, ready to check out other traps.
