Gu Jingcheng looked at Su Xiaomu's sharp words. He endured the pain in his body and suddenly burst into laughter.

He gently raised his hand to wipe away the tears on her face, but because his hands were stained with dirt and grass, not only did he not wipe away the tears on her face, but they stained her face instead.

This was the first time that Gu Jingcheng saw Su Xiaomu's appearance as a little cat. The corners of his lips curled up into a smile and he shook his head at her.

"I don't know if you believe it or not, but at that moment, I was not thinking about my own life at all, nor was I thinking about being bitten to death by a wild boar. I was just afraid of you..."

Gu Jingcheng suddenly raised his hand and held her hand. After feeling the coldness of her hand and the cold sweat on his palm, he moved his body and leaned closer to her.

At this time, Gu Jingcheng only felt that his body was a little weak, but the wounds on his body no longer hurt.

He approached Su Xiaomu and placed her hand on his chest. He lowered his head and said softly with his bloodless white lips: "I'm fine. You don't have to look at me like this."

"As long as you don't get hurt, everything is worth it to me."

"I'm very scared, afraid that you will become like me now. Fortunately, nothing happened to you..."

"Gu Jingcheng!" Su Xiaomu couldn't hold back her tears this time. She pursed her lips in grievance, "Promise me, there will be no next time."

"Xiaomu." Gu Jingcheng called her name softly. He shook his head, "This idea comes from my heart. I'm afraid it will be difficult for me to refuse."

"But you know... you look like you are about to break in my eyes now."

Su Xiaomu choked with sobs. She looked at Gu Jingcheng in her arms. The hand she placed on his chest could feel his heartbeat, which was soothing and slowly beating.

She looked at his current appearance again. His face was pale and sickly, and his whole body was stained with blood and was broken and desolate. It seemed that he would not live long.

"Su...Ms. Su..."

The three men chopping firewood didn't know whether they should talk to Su Xiaomu at this time.

After all, looking at the couple here, one is crying sadly and the other is seriously injured.

"I wonder if I could trouble you all to help me help him down the mountain?"

Su Xiaomu stood up and wiped the tears from her face. She looked back at the killed wild boar, her eyes suddenly turned cold.

"This wild boar... just leave me half of its hind legs and a few kilograms of pork belly. Please take the rest to the village and share it with everyone."

"Thank you so much, Mrs. Su!"

After the burliest man among the three heard that they could share a lot of meat, he was so excited that he couldn't even speak: "Next time... next time if there is such a thing, Mrs. Su can also find her."

We two brothers can’t talk about hunting tigers, but we can still hunt wild boars.”

"I will definitely call you next time I have a chance. Then my husband, I will trouble you all."

Although Su Xiaomu hated the wild boar and felt that what the big man said was a bit like rubbing salt into her wounds, she also knew that he had no bad intentions and was just a farmer looking for work for food and clothing.

The five of them went down the mountain together. After arriving at the farm, Su Xiaomu did not share the meat with the three big men, but asked them to deliver the meat to her small courtyard.

She took Gu Jingcheng and went directly to the doctor to examine his injuries.

Fortunately, the doctor said that all he suffered were superficial injuries, no broken muscles or bones, and no bumps. He just had some bleeding. He needs to rest at home these days, and eating some more will help.

Tonic soup for body recovery.

The doctor knew Su Xiaomu and naturally knew that she was not short of money. When he prescribed medicine, he had no worries that she could not afford it.

Su Xiaomu carried the medicine and took Gu Jingcheng, whose injured areas were covered with ointment, back to the yard. However, as soon as she sat down and before she had time to cook the medicine, the big man beamed with joy and carried a wild boar leg and a large piece of pork belly.

Came to find her.

"The people in the village have divided the meat, and now they are very happy to thank you, Madam Su. Everyone says that Madam Su is a lucky star. Before you came to our place, our life was not so good."

The big man's name was Lin Hu. Su Xiaomu had been talking to him when he went down the mountain just now, and she knew a little about him.

Although his speech is a bit mindless, he is more agile and diligent in doing things. He is not the kind of person who can cheat and cheat.

"But don't say such things. Everyone can live a good life because of their own efforts. It has nothing to do with me. By the way, Ahu... I want to trouble you and your brother about something. I found it today.

Do you have any impression of the trees growing next to the place where my husband-in-law lives?"

Now that Su Xiaomu had calmed down and was safe, she began to think about doing business.

It takes time to cut down trees and plant them, and it also takes time to burn charcoal.

It's early October now, and the weather will turn cooler immediately after the autumn harvest, leaving her little time.

"I know, that tree... it's so common. There are so many of them all over our mountains and fields. What's wrong? Does Mrs. Su want someone to cut down the tree?"

Lin Hu's eyes immediately lit up when he talked about cutting down trees. He had worked as an errand for Su Xiaomu before, so he knew that working as an errand for her was very high-paying and not tiring. The most important thing was that everyone in the village paid well.

She was proud of her job. If he could find a stable job here in Su Xiaomu, he would have great reputation in the village.

"There is this arrangement." Su Xiaomu did not hide his intention, "You just saved my husband and me, so this should be regarded as repaying your kindness. I need many people to help me chop down trees. You can do it for me."

Looking for them, the more people, the better. As for the trees..." Su Xiaomu pondered, "It's the kind I just told you."

"The wages..." Lin Hu was even more excited when he heard that not only did he have a job, but he could also be the boss and take charge of people. He looked at Su Xiaomu with bright eyes, "Is it the same as the wages we paid for building a house before?"

"One hundred cash per day. The person who cuts down the most trees every day can get one hundred and fifty cash per day. By the way, if you cut down trees every day and plant them every day, the wages and requirements are the same as before."

What Su Xiaomu wants is sustainable ecological development.

She didn't want to just make a one-time deal, and she didn't want her name to be written in the column as the initiator of environmental problems in the city.

As for the one hundred and fifty articles... only with competition can we make progress.

When Lin Hu finally left Su Xiaomu's place, his steps were filled with joy.

Su Xiaomu was originally a little irritable and unhappy, but when she saw him like this, she immediately cheered up, and everything she felt unhappy was gone.

She shook her head and sighed: "You really have to base your happiness on the happiness of others, so that you can be happier yourself."
