CH 73

As soon as the son and daughter returned, the family immediately became lively, and the little fragrant pig that was confined to the chicken shed was mercifully released by Mama Wang.

In the past, the little fragrant pig voluntarily ran into the chicken shed every day, but now it didn’t want to. In this home, the destiny of the little fragrant pig had some twists and turns. When Wang Ziyu was there, it was like living in heaven every day. Everyone often cared for it. People gave it food at all three meals. However, when Wang Ziyu left, its good days followed after her.

Because Mama Wang was busy, she didn’t have time to take care of it. She often kept it in a chicken shed when she went out, because it was too naughty to leave at home. The house would always be messed up by it when she returned, assuming it didn’t change its ways. The uncivilized man only grows more straightforward and rude. In addition, it was almost impossible to leave the pig outside. In the end, Papa Wang was soft-hearted and occasionally took it out on walks.

The liberated little fragrant pig smelled a familiar scent, and its petite body immediately turned into a round ball and rushed into the arms of Wang Ziyu. Unfortunately, it failed, the perceptive Wang Cheng quickly intercepting it.

"This stupid pig must be a man." Wang Cheng grasped its neck with one hand. Trying to take advantage of his sister, it was not even a pig!

"Second brother, you’re hurting it." Wang Ziyu quickly took back the little fragrant pig from his hands, and the mini pig hummed twice, then drilled into her arms, even arching his head on her chest. Wang Cheng was furious, this guy was definitely provoking him.

"It's fat and chubby, so it doesn't get hurt at all. Don't spoil it too much. The more you spoil it, the more it naughty it will be."

"Really?" Wang Ziyu hesitated.

"Of course, would your second brother lie to you?" Wang Cheng didn’t blush and wasn’t nervous.

"Then I will act better next time, second brother, you don't need to worry about it." Wang Ziyu touched the head of the little fragrant pig, she still could not bear to keep it in the chicken shed all the time. Girls liked cute animals, she was no exception.

The little pig hummed again at this time.

Wang Cheng seemed to be seeing a stupid, proud man. He angrily smiled, ‘I’ll bet you were happy for a few days, waiting for Wang Ziyu to return to the great you. Do you feel good?’ He did not seem to notice that this was a pig. After eating, they went to the living room to talk to Papa Wang for a while. He returned to his room at ten, and spent another half an hour texting Chu Yifeng.

Wang Ziyu gave the little fragrant pig a bath. When she was absent, no one had time to bathe it. Mama Wang occasionally washed it once in a while, but now it had been a week since the last bath. Afterwards, Wang Ziyu cleaned it inside and out for a while before rinsing it. She then dried the short hair on its body with a hairdryer, and then hugged it back into the room.

The next day, Wang Cheng got up early in the morning.

Mama Wang got up earlier than him, and she put breakfast out on the dining table. Today, she made porridge for breakfast with red bean paste.

Because the father and son made an appointment last night, after breakfast, Wang Chengcheng and Papa Wang went up the mountain together.

There were many people going up the mountain this season, and the fruits on the mountain had gradually matured. A few families of villagers would take their children up the mountain to pick fruits, but they dared not pick too much, and dared not sell them. If they were found, they would be fined, and many villagers did not want to take this risk.

"Last time I heard from you, I went to the secretary with your grandfather the next day and explained the situation to him. The secretary was very happy. He said that if our family is willing to contract the north mountain, he is willing to give us the fruit mountain as well.”

"Secretary Guan is quite generous." Wang Cheng was surprised.

Papa Wang said, "Our family was brought to his door at this critical juncture. For Secretary Guan, it is too late to be happy. What he hopes for now is to find a local villager so that he can have an excuse to push your uncle away."

Of course, Wang Cheng knew this, and he was very happy to save money.

"But Secretary Guan hopes that we can use the names of the villagers in the Guan’s Village to contract the land, so that they will not be left with no hold over us." Although their family had moved to the Guan’s Village and intended to live here, after all, they were still outsiders. Some people would surely hold on to this loophole, so Secretary Guan made this request.

"This is simple, either grandma or grandpa can do it." Wang Cheng thought it wasn’t a big problem, and even if the secretary did not mention it, he had this intention.

"Your dad thinks so too."

The two walked and discussed some details, soon reaching their destination. The uncle's favorite north mountain was densely packed with tall trees. However, there were not many people going up the mountain, today. The path was a bit muddy, and their steps were difficult. Their shoes beneath them were covered with mud, and their pants were also covered with mud.

Wang Cheng couldn't help but be grateful for his father's foresight. He was wearing an old pair of trousers, and his shoes were also the old boots that Mama Wang usually wore.

The day before yesterday, there was a heavy rain. Overhead, the forest was covered with dense leaves. The sunlight could not come in, so there was a slightly heavy humidity. Just a few minutes after walking, their arms had grown damp.

This was the first time that Wang Cheng had entered this mountain. Papa Wang came more often. Wang Cheng’s grandpa took him a few times to pick some medicinal plants. After becoming familiar with it after a few times, he did not need to be led by locals. He could already roughly identify the way to go.

The two turned around in the mountains. Occasionally, they saw one or two villagers who came to collect medicinal plants for family members sick at home.

According to the grandfather, this mountain had existed for a long time. The medicinal plants in the mountain were all naturally grown, and their accumulated years were very high. For medicinal materials like Ganoderma lucidum [lingzhi], the older its lifetime, the better. From his memory, there were many people in the family who went to the mountains to collect medicine. Secretary Guan didn't sell it before because of the medicinal materials here; he thought it would be a pity to dig out, so he kept it in hand.

After looking, the two went down the mountain.

There were not many roads to go up and down the mountain, so they inevitably met the eldest uncle and another man, who were heading up the mountain.

The man was in a suit and leather shoes, with a pair of rimless glasses hanging on the bridge of his nose. His hair was combed backward. Who knew what it was covering?

Wang Cheng guessed the identity of the man at a glance. According to eldest uncle's attitude towards him, this man would never be a person in his company, so it could only be someone sent by Lisa’s father, most likely a trusted friend. Though he didn’t know Lisa's father, if he could make a business so big, he should be a shrewd businessman. The Guan’s Village had a relatively backwards economy, but its resources were incomparable to many other places. If it were him, he would not miss this great opportunity. The uncle saw them and hesitated for a moment. Obviously, he didn't expect to see them here. The man next to him saw that they knew each other, but he didn't ask anything. He just stood there, but the arrogance in his eyes was very obvious. Wang Cheng was not surprised at all.

"Brothers, why are you here?" After the uncle reacted, he didn't want to introduce them to the man wearing a suit.

"To take a look." Papa Wang's response was very light.

The eldest uncle was not surprised. He knew that Mama Wang's father was a bit ill and someone would come to pick up medicinal plants for him after a while. So when they came to collect herbs, he laughed and said, "If you’ve come to collect medicine, then you can pick more, or you won't have a chance to in the future. "

Thinking that he had said something very meaningful, the uncle went on to accompany the man and continue looking. It wasn't until the two went away that Papa Wang sighed.

Wang Cheng knew what Papa Wang was thinking. After the dust settled, when the uncle knew that they were contracting the mountain, he and his backers would definitely be annoyed. He imagined the picture of a dog and a chicken jumping around.

Back at home, the two mentioned nothing about the encounter with the eldest uncle. Mama Wang asked them how their look was, and Wang Cheng told her that it had been decided.

In the afternoon, the father and son went to visit their elders again. Papa Wang told the grandfather about this. Grandfather also supported them when he heard it. They decided to settle the incident while the iron was hot, so as to avoid extra problems. Then brought all the required documents to the secretary's home.

"Do you really want to contract the north mountain?" Secretary Guan was really surprised after hearing what they said. Before, when Papa Wang had asked him about the north mountain, he guessed a little, but he didn't expect that they really had these intentions. He had heard that they might not be able to afford it. The biggest thing was that Wang Hongwei also had these intentions, and if he found out about them, the Wang family may be troubled.

"Secretary Guan, we have also thought about this very carefully, and we are taking it seriously." Papa Wang said, "The main thing is Chengcheng had this idea, and as his father, I support him."

"Didn’t I hear that Wang Cheng is working in the city? He plans to resign?" Secretary Guan still knew a little about their home.

"It is not resignation. My family’s second son will not stay in that company in the future." Papa Wang simply told him about the agreement between Wang Cheng and the boss of Huaying Real Estate. It was three months long, but it was almost done in the blink of an eye.

Secretary Guan nodded after hearing it. It seemed that Wang Hongwei's plan was doomed to bankruptcy. Even though they were not worried and he didn’t say anything extra, he still knew the character of Papa Wang. He contracted the mountain to him. In the evening, he was able to sleep peacefully, and the heavy heart he had for many days suddenly relaxed.

Later, Secretary Guan personally took them to register, and with him as help, the procedure was much faster. He also gave them the fruit mountain next to the north mountain as promised. It was completed in less than an hour, and Wang Cheng paid the contract costs on the spot. When paying, one couldn’t swipe a card here, so he remitted the money to Papa Wang's account early on, and exchanged it for paper money. Since that moment, the north mountain was owned in the name of his grandpa.

Although the grandpa agreed that he would contract the mountain in his own name, he also said that after a while, he would definitely change it from his name to Wang Cheng’s.
