Rebirth: Splendid Marriage in the 80s

Chapter 993: Chapter 994: The Wild Boar Goes Mad

Hearing this statement, Chiang Songtao and Ho Laidi, who had been silent at home, suddenly ran out.

”What? Say what?”

”Wild boar? Is our Yuequn all right?”

”Someone’s been injured by a charge, the boar is chasing them, and I saw your family’s Yuequn running with those people! You better find someone to help!” the villager said urgently.

Ho Laidi immediately cursed, ”Are you all dead? Why didn’t you help? If anything happens to my Yuequn, I’ll beat you to death!”

The villager was taken aback and then got angry, ”Pah! I come back to report the news out of good intentions and get cursed for it? Suit yourselves! The wild boar is like it’s gone mad, we barely escaped with our lives, and you think we’d go looking for death?!” With that, he cursed as he ran off.

The neighbors who heard the noise and came out to look were all speechless at Ho Laidi’s response.

Chiang Songtao stamped his foot, ”What are we going to do now? Old Second! Old Second!” He forgot for a moment that they no longer had any personal connection with Chiang Xiao’s family and called anxiously for Chiang Songhai.

Chiang Songhai and Ge Liutao also came out after hearing the shouts, and now, hearing that Chiang Yuequn might be in danger, both showed alarmed expressions.

”Old Second, quickly grab a weapon and go up the mountain to help little Yuequn!” Chiang Songtao’s eyes turned red with urgency.

Chiang Songhai didn’t move but looked at Chiang Xiao instead.

Usually, he could refuse directly, but now it was about Yuequn’s life. People’s lives were at stake, and being inherently kind, he still felt some reluctance to ignore the situation.

Chiang Xiao was holding Snow Ball and looked at the unmoving Chiang Songtao, saying, ”If there really is danger, what’s the use of sending just my grandfather to the mountain alone? You’d better find some other strong young people to go up the mountain with you! It’s not that you don’t want to go and only want to send my grandfather, is it?”

”Chiang Xiao! At a time like this, and you’re still wasting time arguing with me!” Chiang Songtao exclaimed angrily, ”Your grandfather has hunted wild boars before, I haven’t!”

He would have been better off not saying that because it made Chiang Xiao angry.

”Yes, he’s even encountered a tiger before, and some shameless person even claimed that they’d saved his life,” she retorted.

Chiang Songtao’s face turned shades of green and white.

”Dad! Let’s go! If we delay any longer, who knows what will happen to our Yuequn!” At this moment, Ho Laidi really couldn’t bother arguing with Chiang Xiao anymore, she was genuinely worried about Chiang Yuequn.

He was so eager to say he would follow the professors to do research but now was in danger!

She could still remember the state of Old Li and the others when they came down from Bai Gu Mountain; the more she thought about it, the more terrifying it became.

Seeing that Chiang Songhai truly wasn’t moving, Chiang Songtao clenched his teeth, his face darkened, and he grabbed a hoe before running to Bai Gu Mountain. As he ran, he shouted loudly, ”Who will come and kill the wild boar with me? The more people, the stronger we are, killing the wild boar will make for a prosperous year! Whoever helps, I’ll give two yuan per person!”

With such a shout, indeed a few people grabbed weapons and ran with him.

Chiang Songhai looked at Chiang Xiao, ”Little, shall I go take a look too?”

It had truly been a stroke of fortune that they had been able to kill that wild boar before, but it seemed the boars they encountered weren’t as mad as this one, still chasing people.

Chiang Xiao thought for a while then said, ”Let’s go take a look! Grandpa, whatever you do, don’t make contact with the people Yuequn is with, no matter what. We don’t know who they are.”

”Okay,” Chiang Songhai agreed readily.
