Chapter 15: Distress
As soon as Du Wanwan returned to the room, he didn't care about his wet hair, and fell asleep. I had no dreams all night, and the next day I was awakened by the noise in the yard.
Got up and still put on the dirty burlap clothes, put away the blankets and mattresses, and threw the bamboo rattan boxes, tables and chairs into the backpack, Du Wanwan opened the door and went out.
"It's out! The mourner, cough, bend out, hehe. With a stiff smile on his face, Du Yu stepped forward and couldn't wait to squeeze Du Wanwan away and look inside the hut. I saw that the house was empty, only a wooden bed, and there was no bedding, and the grass and mud on the walls were not dry. Only then did he raise his eyebrows in satisfaction, changed his polite appearance, snorted coldly, turned his head and left.
"Ahem, now let's talk about your situation. ”
The old man Xu of the village has already come, but Du Wanwan has not yet gotten up, and the old man Xu is a little unsure whether he should wake up Du Wanwan, who knows that the little lady who looks very beautiful, when she sees the newly built hut next to the courtyard gate, she is unwilling, she has to go in to see.
When Du Wanwan saw that Muramasa was coming, he bowed to Muramasa very politely and smiled slightly. Last night she took a shower and combed her hair, and now she looks like a little beauty with clear eyebrows.
When I came last night, it was too dark, and Du Wanwan didn't see the layout of the courtyard clearly. The courtyard was walled with clods of earth, about a man high, and the main house facing the gate had three rooms, one hall and two bedrooms. There is also a room next to the bedroom on the left, which looks like a warehouse.
On the right side of the courtyard is a vegetable patch, and near the courtyard gate is Du Wanwan's hut. Facing the storeroom on the left is the stove shed, and next to the stove shed is the firewood and grass shed, and there are still some dry firewood and grass piled up in it. More than a meter away from the firewood and straw shed, there is a shed for tying up livestock. In Du Wanwan's view, although this yard is small, it has all kinds of organs.
"This yard is where I used to live, and I recently added this hut. Now that you have moved in and chosen your bedroom, you will not have any more trouble. The day after tomorrow there is a market in the town, and you can go there and buy whatever you need. The original bedding was given to you, but now that it is autumn, it is not easy to divide the land again, and wait for next spring, and then divide the land. ”
Don't let more incidents, that is, this hut is now their own?
"Yes, yes, yes! Muramasa is whatever he says, and we husband and wife all listen to Muramasa!"
"Well, I heard that your family's belongings are in the hands of this little lady, and when the market arrives the day after tomorrow, I will pick you up, so you just have to go with me. ”
The old man of Murazheng Xu left after speaking, but Du Wanwan had a big head, and Du Qiang and his wife were even more stunned. They are slaves from the south! They met a nobleman on the way, so they were able to get out of their nationality, but where did they get their belongings? Could it be that in fact, the nobleman left a lot of money for them, but it was secretly swallowed by Du Wanwan, the mourning star!
"Mourning star! You say, did you swallow the property that the nobleman gave us! Ah! You dead girl with no conscience, you are not afraid of being supported to death!" The aunt was immediately unwilling, the nobles thought of them when they left their nationality, how could they not leave them money? It must be that this mourning star held a grudge against them and swallowed the money privately!
Du Wanwan rubbed his eyebrows, this is really narcissistic, even the gods can't stop it. It's obviously her who has a friendship with Jiang Lian, so why should people leave money to irrelevant people?
"Yes, there is money, I thought I would give it to my aunt when we were completely settled. ”
"You're talking nonsense! Why didn't you mention money yesterday!" As soon as Du Yu heard that he was rich, his eyes suddenly lit up and he rushed out of the bedroom.
Du Wanwan felt that if she didn't come up with some money, she might not be able to pass this hurdle. But that was left to her by Jiang Lian for emergency, and of course she wouldn't give it all to her aunt.
"Well, I'll go into the house and get it now, and I'll give it all to my aunt. Without waiting for the reaction of others, he went back to the hut. As soon as Du Wanwan took out two strings of money from his backpack, Du Yu rushed in, grabbed Du Wanwan's arm, and searched her.
"Hmph, this house is so small, you must have hidden all the money on you!"
But when I touched it, I only found the ones that Du Wanwan took out. Du Yu snorted angrily and snatched the copper coins, turned around and went out, and went straight to the main house.
Du Wanwan took out two strings of money, two hundred copper plates, and when Jiang Lian left, he gave Du Wanwan more than a dozen strings of money, two silver nuggets of different sizes, and a thick gold hairpin. Du Wanwan originally planned to take five strings, but unfortunately, Du Yu didn't give her a chance
After getting the money, the aunt stopped making trouble, and the second uncle took a wicker basket, saying that there was no food at home, and asked Du Wanwan to go up the mountain to find food together. Du Wanwan didn't object, and went out with the second uncle.
On the other side of the river behind the house, there is a mountain, the grass and trees in the mountain are verdant and lush, and there are many wild things, but because there are no sophisticated hunting tools, the young people in the village rarely go into the mountains to try their luck. The second uncle didn't come to hunt, he just wanted to see if there was anything in the mountains to feed his stomach.
Du Wanwan put on a new pair of straw sandals, followed behind the second uncle, and walked towards the depths of the forest little by little.
In the early morning woods, there are still crystal dewdrops on the blades of grass, and the sun is warm, passing through the layers of branches and leaves, gently hitting Du Wanwan's green face. The crisp call of the birds, and the sound of the branches and leaves rubbing against each other, converge into a melodious morning concerto of mountains and forests.
The second uncle found some wild vegetables, and Du Wanwan also dug them with him, but from time to time he would dig up some other things and throw them into his backpack. The two of them didn't speak, concentrated on their work, and before they knew it, they entered the deep forest area. In the deep forest, the trees are more luxuriant, the branches and leaves are more dense, stepping on the thick fallen leaves, Du Wanwan felt that the light on the ground was getting darker and darker, so he got up to check the surrounding situation.
The second uncle also discovered the abnormality, and he could still hear the birds, and even saw the traces of some small animal activities. But now, the woods were silent and dimly lit, and fools knew they were in a place they shouldn't have set foot in.
The two of them turned around at the same time, but the grass was thick, and there was no road behind them. When they first came up the mountain, they took the path that the hunters had trodden, and now they had no idea where they were.
The second uncle was carrying the basket, his voice trembled slightly, and he shouted: "Mourning star, don't go to see the road yet! What are you doing in a daze!" Du Wanwan glanced at the second uncle and sneered, he was cowardly, so he could only command her!
Dropping the wild vegetables in his hand, Du Wanwan probed in the direction he came.
Fortunately, there didn't seem to be anyone coming to this place, and Du Wanwan could easily find the traces of his and the second uncle's activities all the way, so he turned around and went back and beckoned the second uncle to come over.
"Whew--"
With a long howl, Du Wanwan was clever and stood still.
"Whew--"
I'll wipe it!!! Du Wanwan's hair stands on end, there are wolves in this forest!
The sound of howling was getting closer and closer, and Du Wanwan ran all the way back to the second uncle, obviously the second uncle also heard the wolf howl, and at the moment he was so frightened that he shrank behind the tree, trembling.
"Coming, coming!"
Du Wanwan saw that the second uncle's eyes were straight, his legs trembled, and he didn't know well. She didn't dare to turn around rashly, her hands were clenched, her nails were clenched fiercely in her palms, she held her breath, and a dense layer of cold sweat oozed from her forehead.
"Three-three, three-wolf. We're going to die here!" The second uncle looked at the three wolves that came out of Du Wan's back, and his cold and green eyes saw that he was cold, his legs and feet were weak, and he sat on the ground all of a sudden.
Du Wanwan's body was tense, his palms were sweaty, but his heart was cold, three wolves!?
It's really bad luck now
