Back to the 70s: My Wife is Both Fierce and Crazy

Chapter 61 Uncle and nephew enter the mountain
Watching his retreating figure, Bai Jing's voice rang out softly, "If you dare to go to Old Man Bai, I'll report you to the police station for being in cahoots with them. If you don't give us a way out, then we'll all die together."

Bai Quanfu paused, then changed direction.

I went straight to the back cubicle.

After the people left, Bai Jing was helped to sit down by her two aunts, who looked at her with concern.

After a while, Uncle Bai spoke first, "Xiao Jing, your father's blind filial piety has become a habit, and he can't change it in a short time. You'd better not mention divorce in the future, as it will hurt the relationship between father and daughter too much."

He also wanted to salvage the situation for his elder brother.

Although he also disapproved of his elder brother's inaction, he was still his elder brother and didn't want him to lose his most important wife and daughter because of some unimportant things.

His eyes were glazed over, and his voice carried a hint of weariness and annoyance.

"Second Uncle, I know my father better than any of you. If we don't push him, our family will never be able to get rid of Grandpa's family."

“You all know what kind of family they are. If we get entangled with them, our family will never be able to escape this misery for the rest of our lives.”

It's not just giving her father a chance, it's also giving yourself a chance.

Her reluctance should also be put to a decision.

Uncle Bai opened his mouth, but finally sighed, "I'll go see my elder brother." After saying that, he went to the back room.

Bai Quanfu ultimately did not visit his father, but his work was affected by the Bai Granny incident. His workplace told him to handle his family matters before returning to work, or else he would have to accept the organization's arrangement and work in another place.

He is a veteran and now has a great admiration for soldiers. Unless it is a matter of principle, most organizations and leaders would not dismiss a veteran.

Bai Quanfu was protected by his status, which is why he wasn't directly dismissed.

Bai Jing brought her second uncle into the mountains this time, after all, she hadn't forgotten what she promised Uncle Zhong.

On the mountain road, Uncle Bai's mouth opened and closed repeatedly, which Bai Jing could clearly see in the scanned image.

"Second Uncle, just say what you want to say. Why are you being so polite with your niece?"

Bai Jing wondered if her second uncle still wanted to persuade her to forgive her father.

However, her second uncle's words surprised her.

"Xiaojing, I heard that jobs can be bought now. Your second uncle is thinking of selling a few yellow strips and then asking you to help him buy two jobs in town. But I'm afraid of putting you in a difficult position, so I've thought about it again and again and am a little embarrassed to ask."

After saying that, Uncle Bai's old face became hot and angry.

He should have been a pillar of support for his nephews and nieces, but instead, he troubles his eldest niece with everything.

“That’s true, but you definitely can’t buy a good job. What you can buy are all manual labor jobs, like Uncle’s. It’s all physical labor. The only advantage is that you can learn a skill. Uncle, what kind of job do you want to buy?”

She was naturally happy to see that her second uncle could come to terms with it.

Furthermore, her second uncle mentioned her second aunt, which made her think highly of him.

After all, among her father's three brothers, the second and third uncles were both doting on their wives, unlike her father, who acted like a fool.

"Second Uncle is strong, why don't you help me look around and ask around, and if you find something suitable, buy it for me?" He kept the yellow slips in Xiao Jing's hands for safekeeping, so he wasn't worried that Xiao Jing wouldn't have the money to buy them.

"Of course, no problem. Second Uncle, just wait for my good news." She had previously worried that her second uncle's family wouldn't be willing to spend money to buy her a job, but now that her second uncle had asked, she was naturally willing to help him inquire.

However, to find out about this, I'll have to ask my third uncle for help, or wait until she receives her reward and then ask Captain Lin to help me inquire about it.

"Then I'll thank Xiaojing in advance. After things are settled, I'll have your aunt make you a beautiful dress. Your aunt is a very good seamstress." Bai Jing naturally knew this, as many of her clothes were made by her aunt using fabric she bought.

"I know, my second aunt is the best."

Xiao Jing's teasing made Bai Quanlu's face burn again.

The two took the same path they had taken to enter the mountains before.

Bai Jing also had the system plan a route for her where wild boars were present.

Now that she's stronger, she doesn't need to worry about anything, so she doesn't want to take detours if she can finish something quickly.

Soon they arrived at a water source, where the map showed a herd of five or six wild boars.

"Second Uncle, look! There's a wild boar over there!" Bai Jing stopped and pointed to a low-lying area for her second uncle to check.

Bai Quanlu followed Bai Jing's finger and indeed saw several wild boars.

"Isn't this a bit too much? We can't afford to take so many wild boars," Bai Quanlu said worriedly.

"Second Uncle, you climb the tree first." Bai Jing didn't want her second uncle to go and fight; she could manage on her own.

"What's wrong?" Bai Quanlu's heart tightened. Despite being an elder, he was no match for his niece's little finger in front of a wild boar.

"The wild boar has spotted us." Bai Jing lied, then deliberately made some noise. "Quick, climb the tree! This tree is tall, we won't be afraid of the wild boar running into us."

As she spoke, she helped her second uncle climb the tree.

Because Bai Jing's voice urged him on so urgently, Bai Quanlu didn't even have time to look in the direction of the wild boar. He assumed that the wild boar had really discovered them and quickly climbed up the tree.

Once he reached a safe branch, Bai Jing took a running start and headed straight at the wild boars that had come running at the sound of the commotion.

She raised her fist and punched every time a wild boar came at her, leaving a dent no matter where it landed.

The wild boar died on the spot.

After a while, the wild boars stopped screaming, and four wild boars weighing two or three hundred pounds each lay on the ground.

Uncle Bai watched the whole thing from the tree, and his mouth was agape, unable to close.

After checking around and finding no further threat, Bai Jing waved to her second uncle in the tree.

Just as she was about to speak, the system sounded an alarm.

[A redeemable item has been found. Would you like to redeem it, host?]

The image of Xiao Jin, that black lump of coal, kept popping into Bai Jing's mind.

[Host, host is a medicinal herb, a top-grade wild ginseng.] Xiao Jin never expected that this place would be full of ginseng that had been stored for many years.

This was the first time Bai Jing had ever heard of ginseng being a plant in her hometown.

"Where?" Bai Jing's heart skipped a beat. Ginseng! That's a good thing. Whether it's used to nourish the body or to save lives, it's a valuable medicine.

Given her mother's condition, the last time Director Liu used a ginseng root that was about ten years old, it cost several tens of yuan. If she could find a ginseng root of better quality, could her mother's illness be cured sooner?

【Look, Su Zuo.】 Xiao Jin marked the location of the ginseng on the scanner.

As soon as the red dot appeared, Bai Jing excitedly ran towards it.
