Chapter 308 Another New Year

a mountain?

The children looked at the mountain with a sense of despair, wondering if they were going to be planted until they died.
After a month of hard work, they learned a lesson: don't try to reason with Shi Xia.

Don't even try to get her to sympathize with you, because it's completely useless.

Without further ado, Shi Xia distributed saplings and tools, and went up the mountain to plant trees.

This one takes more than half a month.

They get up before dawn and line up to get breakfast; at least now they can see meat in their breakfast.

After breakfast, we worked in groups, with a ten-minute break to drink herbal tea before continuing until lunchtime.

The sun was strong in the afternoon, but it didn't affect their work.

Shi Xia's two birds could spot anyone who was slacking off.

The little eagle landed precisely, checked one person, and then went back to Shi Xia to ask for beef jerky as a reward.

They worked incredibly hard, and were even hoping to catch someone slacking off.

They worked until dinnertime, and even after dinner, they couldn't rest; they had to keep working until nine o'clock.

After nine o'clock, we stayed in our tents and slept in the same spot.

They haven't left this mountain for more than half a month.

The barren mountain looks different every day, and it started to rain after dinner that evening.

They can finally get some rest.

It rained all night.

It was still raining the next day.

Shi Xia told the children to pack their things and go down the mountain.

They didn't understand, but nearly two months of torment taught them to obey orders.

Everyone started taking action.

A thunderous roar resounded.

Shi Xia and thirty soldiers organized the children to descend the mountain in an orderly manner. The mountain was barren, and with the heavy rain, there was a risk of collapse at any moment.

The evacuation was very fast.

Zhang Weiguo was always at the back.

Boom!
Zhang Weiguo turned around and saw soil from the mountaintop falling from the sky, pressing down on him.

My first reaction was naturally to run.

In his haste, Zhang Weiguo stumbled and slipped, falling to the ground.

As he lay on the ground, he actually felt that dying wouldn't be so bad.

"Go!"

Shi Xia appeared.

With one hand pulling Zhang Weiguo up, in a flash Zhang Weiguo was thrown onto Shi Xia's back.

"Save me? Why? Don't you hate me?"

"Nonsense, I hate a lot of people, am I going to kill them all?"

Shi Xia moved quickly and nimbly dodged.

"Look carefully, I can be willful because I have the ability to get anyone away from danger."

Zhang Weiguo was once again touched by painful memories.

"I'm sorry, Liangzi."

“Tell him yourself!”

"What"

With a loud bang, Zhang Weiguo heard nothing. Shi Xia led him safely down the mountain and successfully rejoined the main group.

Everyone watched from afar as the mudslide rushed down, destroying roads and some of the saplings they had planted.

“If this mountain is covered with the trees you planted, you will save many people without doing anything.”

Shi Xia didn't preach any grand principles; they had all witnessed the power of nature firsthand.

"The tree planting is over, your training is over, you are free now, I will take you home."

Shi Xia kept her word and led the 138 children back to the nearest port to board a ship and go home.

Before anyone could believe what was happening, Shi Xia arrived with someone.

"Go."

"Liangzi? You're not dead?"

"Liangzi, it really is Liangzi!"

Zhang Weiguo appeared dazed after hearing the name Liangzi.

Liangzi walked towards Zhang Weiguo.

"you--"

"I'm alive. Boss Shi Xia rescued me."

"what--"

Zhang Weiguo felt as if his internal organs were being churned together in agony. He squatted down, wanting to cry but unable to, the immense pressure causing him to tremble all over.

He wanted to ask Shi Xia why she hadn't told him sooner.
But then he seemed to understand why.

As I said before, if you have the ability, then go for it; if you don't, then don't mess around. Shi Xia returned with the children.

All 138 people are alive; that's the only way to put it.

Because if parents don't look closely, it's really difficult to recognize their own child at a glance.

I truly feel sorry for her, but I also truly dare not say it.

When the group of children went home, the troublesome teenager was gone.

Many parents secretly wept with joy, deeply grateful to Shi Xia.

I don't expect my child to be rich and powerful, but at the very least, I hope they don't become someone who harms society.

Their demands are really not high.

Shi Xia is back.

Wen Chengan skipped work by five minutes, which was a little early.

I've missed you terribly, it's been over two months.

Wen Chengan cooked dinner. The two ate and chatted, while the big white geese in the yard honked in response.

Time flies, and it's already National Day again.

The performing arts troupe came to offer their condolences again.

However, this time everything was peaceful and nothing happened. Everyone enjoyed the performance and celebrated the festival together.

After the National Day holiday, Shi Xia went out twice.

I went to MD once and brought back a batch of gems, then took them to R.

The Mu brothers were doing very well in R, and they were giving Shi Xia a share of the profits.

Shi Xia once again invested in jewelry and gold.

Shi Xia used all the dividends to exchange for technology. With such great profits at stake, someone will always want to sell something.

The technology she brought back was used by Shi Xia to exchange for manpower.

She wants to build Moon Island.

An island that belongs to her alone.

The higher-ups naturally agreed, and Shi Xia began traveling back and forth between Haiming Island, Haisan Island, and Moon Island.

Time flies, and it's Chinese New Year again.

Every year during the Lunar New Year, they would return to Hai San Island and several families would eat together.

Xu Danhong has also returned this year.

I came back from Shanghai Health School.

The Qu family, the Xu family, the Wen family, the Shi family, and Old Man Shan all celebrated the New Year together.

Only Yamamoto Sei was absent.

However, everyone had the same understanding that Yamamoto was doing something very important.

Shi Xia ate the most at dinner, because she was very hungry.

After dinner, Grandpa Shi cooked glutinous rice balls, one for each person.

It's sweet and has a brown sugar and sesame filling.

As Shi Xia ate, she felt that the taste wasn't quite right, so she went to the kitchen.

Pour in the vinegar.

Eat glutinous rice balls and pour vinegar on them.

Everyone looked at Shi Xia. The women, who were the most perceptive, had bright eyes but dared not speak. They all looked expectantly at Old Man Xu.

Old Xu understood everyone's unspoken message and simply got up.

"Shi Xia, are you eating tangyuan?"

"I don't have enough to eat yet."

Summer is here, and the food is protected.

Old Xu was speechless. Did he look like someone who liked to snatch food?
Forget it, don’t care.

"Shi Xia, shall I take your pulse?"

"You're not trying to tell me I shouldn't eat too much, but you still want to?"

Old Xu stopped smiling; he shouldn't have tried to probe indirectly.

"Let me take your pulse, quickly."

"Oh."

Shi Xia obediently stretched out her hand and met the gazes of everyone looking at her.

Why are you all staring at me?!

Wen Cheng'an felt a surge of anxiety, but forced himself to relax.

Don't expect anything, just let things take their course.

"It's nothing, I just wanted to ask if this is good?"

Wen Cheng'an pointed at the bowl of glutinous rice balls to divert Shi Xia's attention, and Shi Xia's mouth watered: "Delicious."

Old Xu suddenly took a deep breath, frowned, and gripped Shi Xia's hand even tighter.
