Chapter 21: The Hope of Living
"W-don't you want to?" Hulland looked at her with his head bowed and a smile playfully. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
Mei Ga's eyes were red.
She hurriedly apologized: "I'm sorry, aunt!"
"Nothing. Mei Ga whispered, "It's me who is bad!"
"Auntie, I know what you're thinking. "Yesterday, I met the messenger who sent the envoy to Su, and he told me that they had arranged everything for the man of God before he returned, and that when they returned, they bought him bags of grain. Auntie, don't worry, Envoy Su is very witty and smart, he is a man of God, and all difficulties can be overcome!"
In fact, it is rumored that he is a man of God, and only doctors know it, which is superstition. There is no man of God in the world, but he is wise and strong. Mei Ga just nodded and said, "I hope!"
Mei Ga recalled that more than three months ago, when she took care of him with serious injuries, she really admired the son of this official eunuch who lived without worrying about food and clothing. He suffered an inhuman blow from Wei Lu, and was physically and mentally traumatized, but he was strong and silent, and he still thought about her everywhere, afraid that Wei Lu would retaliate against her who took care of him and refuse her closeness.
"Auntie, if you really like him, wait until spring and go and see him!" said Yu Weilan.
Woo Woo ...... Mei Ga quickly chopped the codonopsis, but he didn't say anything.
Seeing this, Yu Weilan felt that he had said too much, so he said goodbye and said, "Auntie, you are busy, I am going home!"
Mei Ga grabbed her and said, "I want to go to him now!"
"This icy and snowy place, Reuters is far away, and people will freeze to death!" Yu Weilan said, "Besides, the Beihai region is big, and I don't know the specific place! If you get lost, it is also a dead end!"
Mei Ga reluctantly let go of her hand and sat down on the ground, tears welling up in her eyes.
"Auntie, the nearby inn is closed now. If you want to go, you have to make a lot of preparations, prepare to eat and drink all the way, prepare the bedding to rest all the way, as well as the frost protection for the horses, grain and forage, and so on. Otherwise, if you travel a long distance in the bitter cold, you will freeze to death. Have you considered any of these?"
She recalled that many years ago, her husband went to graze in the spring and died in a severe snowstorm and cold, so she had to mutter: "That's—it's here, it's spring!"
"That's right!" said Yu Weilan, "I'll inquire about the place now, let's make good preparations, and I'll go with you when the time comes!"
Yu Weilan also admired Su Wu, especially when he was a guide, his calm and decisive attitude made her admire, but this was only the admiration of the younger generations for their elders. As for love, I haven't thought about it carefully. I want to find a Han husband, Su Wu is about the same age as his father, so he can't do it. Besides, he is an envoy of the Han Dynasty, and it is even more possible that he would rather die than give in! As the princess of the Dashan Yu family, Yu Weilan deeply knows that his will is not important, so he should not seek his own death! He is the only daughter of his parents, and he cannot be willful in the matter of marriage.
Mei Ga had to wait patiently for spring. Unlike Euverland, Maga is free. He saw that his brother's disapproval, that is, his brother's disagreement, Mei Ga felt that Su Wu was a real man, but he was now in exile. Exile is not terrible, and you can go and live with him. She sold him cloth to prepare for the beginning of spring, went to see his clothes, and so on.
Mei Ga was busy in the hospital and rested, so he took the man's big sole cone and picked it up. When my brother came in, he didn't avoid it, but still kept his head down and worked. Frustration wanted to talk to his sister, so he sat across from her and looked at her, thinking about how to speak.
"What are you looking at me for?" asked my sister without looking up.
"You didn't even look up to know I was looking at you?" the brother asked.
"I can feel it. ”
"So you do things by feeling?"
My sister looked up and smiled at him, then lowered her head and tugged at the soles of her shoes.
"Mei Ga," said Fuqu Ge, "my brother knows that you like him, but have you thought about it, he will return to Dahan after all." ”
"Then I'll go back with him!"
"I'm afraid it's not that easy!
"Then I'll follow him too! I don't care!"
Frustrated Quger saw that his sister's heart had been decided, and he had nothing to say. In fact, she also admired Su Wu's personality and integrity. If his sister could be with him, he would be relieved. He also wants to find a Han husband for his sister, which is the mind of the deceased second elder. He got up and walked out the door.
Although Su Wu saved one meal a day, two months later, the food was still in a hurry. Welu hasn't sent food yet. When he got up early in the morning, he looked at the empty sheepskin bag and walked out of the house.
Outside the door, the sky was overcast, the cold wind was howling, and it seemed that the sky was about to change again. The old snow can't be eliminated by a few feet thick, and new snow has to be added. If it snows again and you can't go out to find something to eat, you and your six sheep will lose your life. Recently, he walked around the snowfields and the nearby woods, and did not see the herdsman who lived in the house, but only found some hay for the sheep, but he was about to finish eating, what should he do? He remembered the saying that people often say, "A living man must not suffocate urine," yes, he must find a way to find something to eat, and he had an idea! He looked at the forest in the distance and had an idea.
Su Wu has been walking on the snow for more than two months, and the method summed up: if you want to walk fast in the snow, you must slide forward. So he cut down trees, made two skateboards to tie his shoes, and pushed them forward and backward with two sticks in both hands, so that people could move forward very quickly. But in the experiment, he was thrown again and again, and after countless practical improvements, he finally succeeded. He also used his ability to manage the production of eagle dogs and horse utensils in the imperial court, and made himself leather gloves and felt shoes and socks to protect himself from the cold.
He wore a machete at his waist, and carried the leather rope he had prepared at this time on his shoulder, and when he was armed, he tied a skateboard to his feet, made a cane as a cane, and took a cane in one hand, and set off with a leather bag on his back. He went into the forest, learned the lesson of the last time he got lost and came home in the middle of the night, and cut a mark on the tree with a machete every time he walked, so that he could return quickly the way he came.
There was a strange silence in the woods, and the further he went, the denser the woods became, and he did not dare to go any further, and was dizzy with hunger, so he sat down under a thick birch tree and closed his eyes. Suddenly, he felt movement under his buttocks, and jumped up in surprise, revealing that he was sitting on a bulging rotten leaf. He used his machete to peel open the frozen thick rotting leaves, and a mouse crawled out of the ground
Running on the snow, his eyes lit up, and he chased and pounced with his leather bag, and finally caught it, and it was quite fat. He threw the rat to death and put it in his skin, and when he came back and picked up the rotting leaves, he saw a rat hole under the tree, and where there was a hole there was food. He dug it up with a machete, and sure enough, there were many tree seeds and grass seeds in the hole, and he shouted happily: "Hunger is not death!"
He took out all the contents of the cave and held them in his hands, but found a way to find food. Then, chewing on the seeds of the tree in his mouth, he searched and dug under the big trees around him...... Although it is nine times out of ten, this harvest is inspiring him to hope for when he will live!
