Chapter 111: True Lies
On this day, Qigu came to the river and wanted to breathe in the fresh breath of the river.
The grass is so green, the flowers are so beautiful, so beautiful!
"I've been in Qiao's Mansion for a long time, and when I come out for a walk, I'm in a much better mood!" Qigu said to herself as she walked.
The river was quiet, and not even the men who usually fished here and the women who did their laundry were nowhere to be seen.
"It's strange, why is the river so quiet?" Qigu felt a little strange, but she thought about it again, everyone has something to do, and it is estimated that they are busy with their own affairs.
The seventh aunt walked quietly by the river, she thought that after the fifth sister got married, she really wanted the fifth sister! I don't know how the fifth sister is doing? Now the fifth sister has her own home, but she is still alone. The day of my marriage is simply far away, it's really sad to think about it!
Raindrops fell from the sky.
The rain hit the mud and raised a little dust. Hitting on the surface of the river, dripping, dripping, forming a circle after a circle, it is very interesting.
Qigu carried an umbrella, she held it up, and still walked unhurriedly by the river, enjoying the scenery on both sides of the river as she walked.
It was raining lightly, but gradually it became heavier, and the road became a little muddy.
Seeing that the rain was getting heavier and heavier, Qigu wanted to take shelter from the rain under a big tree in front of her, so she quickened her pace.
Qigu was trotting, and suddenly her calf seemed to have been touched by something, and she went soft, and fell to the ground.
"Oops! What's going on? Qigu felt that her calves had no strength at all, and she couldn't get up.
The rain is getting heavier and heavier!
"Is anyone there? Help me! The Seventh Aunt shouted anxiously around.
No one answered, and all Qigu saw was a curtain of rain that kept falling.
Qigu was lying in the mud, all wet, and she didn't know what to do. With such a heavy rain, how could anyone come to the river!
"Do you need help?" A voice came from the rain curtain.
"Yes, I need help!" Qigu heard someone speak and replied in surprise.
A man with an umbrella in his hand, as if lifting a rain curtain, walked to the side of the seventh aunt step by step.
"Are you hurt?" The man with the umbrella asked the seventh aunt with concern.
"I don't know what's going on with my feet, I don't have any strength at all, I can't get up!" The seventh aunt told the man.
"Where is your home?" The man asked Qigu.
"I live south of Mietown!" Qigu said.
"It's a long way, you're injured, and it's raining so hard, I can't help find someone to help carry you back!"
"What should I do?" Qigu saw that the river was rising under the fierce wind, so she shouted anxiously.
The man thought for a while and said to the seventh aunt: "I can carry you back, but if your husband sees me carrying you back, he may be unhappy!"
When the seventh aunt heard the man say this, she blushed and said, "I'm not married yet!"
"Oh, is it? Then I'll help you on my back, and I'll carry you back! The man said.
"Okay, thank you then!" After the seventh aunt asked the man to pull her up, she climbed on the man's back and let the man carry her on his back, step by step along the river embankment, to a high place.
The man carried the seventh aunt on his back and walked to a high place. As he walked, his feet slipped because the mud was too muddy, and he rolled into the river with Qigu.
Qigu followed the man into the water, screaming in fright, and her face turned blue.
After the man and Qigu rolled into the river, he was also very panicked, but fortunately he knew some water, so he quickly grabbed a piece of driftwood floating over, grabbed the driftwood with one hand and held Qigu with the other, and floated downstream with the river.
Qigu was in the man's arms, holding the driftwood tightly in her hands, although in the wind and rain, the waves in the river were bigger, but she felt full of security!
"The wind is so strong, the rain is so strong, I don't know if we can climb ashore?" The man said sadly.
Qigu cried a few times, and then said while crying: "At this time, I realized that in fact, I still have a lot of things I want to do, a lot of things I want to eat, and a lot of beautiful clothes that I haven't worn...... I don't want to die......"
"Don't cry!" The man shouted at the seventh aunt.
"Why? What don't you make me cry? Qigu asked strangely.
"Do you think I'm not sad or scared? When I was young, I went to help people work, and now I finally bought a few houses and a piece of land! When I come back this time, I want to marry a wife and start a family! Now in order to help you, I don't even know if I can go ashore alive, and my heart is panicking! The man said to the seventh aunt.
"You want to start a family, and I want to marry a man! If we all make it ashore alive, I'll marry you!" Qigu said.
Qigu didn't even know what the man's name was, and at this critical juncture of uncertain life and death, somehow, she said these words.
"Is this true? If I can both go ashore alive, you will marry me and be my wife? The man smiled wryly, as if casually.
When the seventh aunt heard the man ask her like this, she was a little shy and a little happy, but she still mustered up the courage and said to the man: "If you and I can go ashore alive, if you are willing to marry me, I will be your wife!"
The man, when he heard Qigu say this, clenched Qigu's hand, and then let out a bitter sigh again.
The seventh aunt asked the man, "What's your name?" I don't know your name yet! ”
"My name is Jia Yu!"
"My surname is Qiao, and because I am the seventh among the sisters in the family, my family calls me Qiao Seventh Sister!" Qigu told Jia Yu.
"Seventh sister!" Jia Yu shouted at the seventh aunt.
"Brother Yu!" Qigu shouted at Jia Yu.
Qigu and Jia Yu continued to fight in the rushing river, following the huge waves.
Jia Yu saw the huge waves in the river rising higher and higher, and he was also extremely scared in his heart. For so many years, he has been unable to marry a wife because of poverty. When he heard that the old aunt who pursued Qiao's Mansion would get a settling-in fee, he acted according to the middleman's request, and after the middleman sent out a small stone and clicked on the acupuncture points of the seventh aunt's calf, it was his turn to appear.
However, people are not as good as the sky, and the rain became heavier and heavier, and he and Qigu fell into the river. Now both of them are rolling in the rushing river, whether they have the life to go back, I really don't know!
"You must go ashore alive!" Jia Yu thought to himself that he used to be acting, but now he is not, he really wants to marry the woman who is fighting with him and Julang, this is his true words.
Qigu thought that this time she finally moved her cold heart, and she must go ashore alive, and then marry Jia Yu and become his wife.
The wind blows harder and the rain gets heavier and heavier.
Sometimes, natural disasters such as wind and rain can also be a reason for men and women to be moved, to be together, and to swear to grow old......
