Chapter 28 There is a ghost
Cheng Ergou saw that Huo Ting was not angry because of his embarrassment, and he felt even more aggrieved.

When Su Jinhua went to work, she watched Mrs. Hua and Mrs. Yun working hard to harvest sweet potatoes. They had already harvested half of an acre of land without raising their heads or chatting.
Wen Shuting was a little confused, "What's wrong with them? Aren't they the most lazy? They are quite active now."
Su Jinhua smiled slightly, "They don't want to interact with us, so they have to finish harvesting this acre of land quickly, otherwise they will have to continue working with us tomorrow."
Wen Shuting suddenly realized that they were afraid that Su Jinhua would hang out with the people who were sent down to the countryside, and they would become hardworking out of fear of disaster. They just wanted to distance themselves from Su Jinhua so that they could redistribute people tomorrow.
Su Jinhua and the others still harvested sweet potatoes slowly and leisurely, while Hua Pozi and the others finally finished harvesting the entire acre of land when the work bell rang.
Mrs. Hua ran to call the scorer to register her. Seeing that he was walking slowly, she dragged him along. When she got to the field ridge, the scorer was already out of breath.
"Scorekeeper, you see we are done." Mrs. Hua spoke urgently, as if the score would be lost if she said it was slow. She had not caused any trouble to Su Jinhua in the afternoon.
"Okay, it's already registered."
After the scorekeeper registered, he turned around and was about to leave, but was pulled by Mrs. Hua.
"The scorekeeper is still busy. We want to change the players. We two old ladies don't want to drag Su Zhiqing down. We have decided to change the players tomorrow."
Mrs. Hua spoke sincerely, while Su Jinhua watched quietly from the side without making a sound.
"No."
The scorer refused without thinking.
"Look at who is like you two, changing teammates every month or two. Did I tell you at the time that this was the last time?"
"It was you who patted your chest and said you would never change again. That's why I agreed that the two of you and Su Zhiqing would become teammates. It hasn't even been a month and you have to change again. It's impossible."
The scorekeeper said the last three words word for word.
Mrs. Hua was so anxious that she almost shed tears and begged the scorer urgently.
"This time is really the last time. I swear I will never change it again."
"No way, I will never trust you again."
After the scorer finished speaking, he opened the hand held by Mrs. Hua, turned around and left quickly.
Mrs. Hua watched the scorer leave, gritted her teeth and pulled Mrs. Yun to find the captain.
Su Jinhua and Wen Shuting went home to cook after watching the show. They went to the cowshed and watched the doors of other wooden houses being closed.
Su Jinhua frowned. It was already dark outside at six o'clock, which was not suitable for working. Jiang Qian and the others were not back yet.
"Tingting, you and Jinbao are waiting at home. If someone knocks on the door, don't open it. I'll go check on Uncle Jiang and the others."
"Okay, you bring a flashlight. You don't have to go into the mountains, you know. There are wild boars in the mountains." Wen Shuting asked softly.
Just as Su Jinhua was about to go out, she stopped and returned. Instead, she went back inside and took out a small crossbow from her bag and gave it to Wen Shuting to teach her how to use it.
"This is very simple. Just put it on your hand, press the switch below, and the arrow will shoot out. If you are in danger, just use it. I will take care of anything."
Wen Shuting looked at the exquisite and small crossbow and couldn't put it down. The Wen family is a family of military doctors and they also love weapons.
"I know, I can use it. If there is a thief, I will kill him. Go ahead."
Wen Shuting pushed Su Jinhua out. She knew that Su Jinhua was worried about herself if what happened last night happened again.
Su Jinhua insisted on letting Wen Shuting shoot once to see her strength and her accuracy before leaving. She was enough to deal with ordinary people. If she was a trained enemy agent, everyone would dodge when she aimed at her.
The people who were sent down worked at the foot of the mountain because it was dangerous there. A wild boar or big insect might suddenly rush out, and the people below would be the first to be injured.
A big insect had come down the mountain before, but the working villagers didn't notice it. By the time they found it, one person had already been bitten.
The land here in the back is cultivated and harvested by the people who were transferred to the countryside. No one cares about whether the people who are transferred to the countryside will die or be injured. They only care about the harvest in the fields.
Su Jinhua came to the foot of the mountain with a flashlight and saw Uncle Jiang and the others still working. She felt angry in her heart. She clearly wanted to kill Jiang Qian and the others. Dark was the time when animals came out, so the sound of letting them work here might attract people. Come big animals.
Moreover, it was dark and she could not see clearly, so she might be injured by the harvesting tools. Su Jinhua looked around for the guard, and saw the man lying leisurely on a rocking chair in the thatched house, with a diesel light flickering on and off inside.
He rolled his eyes, took out a slingshot from the space, and flicked it at the man's head.
"what."
Cheng Ergou jumped up in pain. He covered his forehead and shouted angrily.
"Who is it, stand up for me."
Cheng Ergou walked outside the thatched house, looked at the people in the field with wide eyes, and asked angrily.
"Whoever plotted against me, come forward, otherwise everyone will be punished together and continue to harvest for another hour."
Jiang Qiandi and the others all looked at Cheng Ergou blankly, not knowing what he was crazy about. Cheng Ergou had been suffering from sleep demon before, and when he woke up, he asked who secretly drank his wine.
He also turned over their bodies and smelled their hands. He said that the person who touched his hands with wine must have smelled the wine in their hands.
In the end, they were not found, but they were still punished, so Jiang Qian and the others just watched him go crazy quietly. Anyway, he would be punished even if he defended himself.
Su Jinhua flicked Cheng Ergou's knee. One second, Cheng Ergou was looking at Jiang Qian and the others, but the next second, his knee hurt and he fell to the ground.
The anger in Cheng Ergou's eyes turned into fear, because he was looking at Jiang Qian and the others just now. None of them moved their hands, so if it wasn't them, who could be the one who was making a fuss.
Cheng Ergou looked at the dark mountains around him. It was remote and empty. The autumn wind was a bit strong, causing the leaves of the trees to rustle, and there was also a whistling sound. The panic on his face grew bigger and bigger, and he struggled to stand up. , yelling at Jiang Qian to get off work quickly.
"Hurry up, you're procrastinating, put away your tools and get to work."
Cheng Ergou was too afraid to leave by himself, so he could only urge Jiang Qian and the others to move faster.
Su Jinhua just wanted to punish him, not to frighten him. Judging from his appearance, he would probably leave work on time in the future, and he had no intention of doing anything wrong.
Cheng Ergou followed Jiang Qian and others to the cowshed, then abandoned them and fled in a hurry, as if someone was chasing him from behind.
Jiang Qian and the others were stunned for a moment, not knowing what Cheng Ergou was doing.
"Is he possessed by a ghost?"
Jiang Qian asked puzzledly.
"Who knows?"
Huo Ting waved his hand and said he didn't know either.
"I know."
Su Jinhua's refreshing voice sounded behind them, and everyone turned around to see Su Jinhua holding a flashlight behind them.
"Su Zhiqing, when did you come behind us?"
Jiang Qian looked back at the wooden house and then at Su Jinhua.
"While at the bottom of the mountain."
Su Jinhua said with a smile.
