Chapter XXVII: Fulfilling Promises
"Everyone knows yes, but you broke my brother like this, how else does my brother behave? Hey, I heard that you also asked that wild boy to fight you a fire fox that day, can that kid do it? Won't let you pigeon? Huang Tian didn't care that his sister opened his hand and asked in a low voice.
Although Huang Chuchu told his family about Qin Wang's rescue of her, it seemed that Qin Wang's guess was right, his status was low, even if he was so kind to the Huang family, people didn't take him seriously. Otherwise, Huang Tian would at least be polite in terms of title.
"Nope! As long as he doesn't have an accident, he will definitely come back, and I have confidence in him. Huang Chuchu blurted out a defense for Qin Wang, completely ignoring Huang Tian's surprised expression.
"Sister, why are you so towards that kid? You can't just like that mountain village boy, do you? Huang Tian looked at Huang Chuchu with an inquiring expression.
"No, no, I just think that such a small person will be the village head, and he will definitely keep his word. People can't stand without faith, yes, people can't stand without faith. Huang Chuchu explained a little flustered.
Huang Tianhu looked at his sister suspiciously, he didn't dig deeper, and he didn't believe that his arrogant sister would like that rough hunter, "It's all at this time, I bet with you, if he comes, my brother will write his name Huang Tian upside down." Huang Tian said disdainfully.
"Then your name is destined to be written upside down, Tianhuang, this name is very domineering." Before Huang Tian's voice fell, a tired voice suddenly sounded at the door.
"Who? Looking for death? Huang Tian's face darkened when he heard this, and he yelled at the door.
When Huang Chuchu heard this voice, her face was suddenly filled with a look of surprise, she ran to the door quickly, and looked fixedly at the figure she had been thinking about day and night a few steps away.
A tall figure covered in snow and wind stood there, with two foxes, one red and one white, on his body. These two foxes are in the prime of life, with tails attached, three feet long, vigorous and oily hair, and you can see that they are superb. What's even better is that there is no miscellaneous hair, the white one is like snow, the red one is like fire, the breeze blows, the fur is flying, the snow is flying, the fire is burning, one is cold, the other is warm, the two compartments are contrasting, and complement each other. Fox fur of this color is made into a scarf, shawl or hat, which has a particularly good warmth effect and is not afraid of severe cold. If you can make a coat, it is really a good thing that is hard to buy.
But such a good thing didn't seem to attract Huang Chuchu's attention, and all of Huang Chuchu's attention was attracted by Qin Wang.
I saw that Qin Wang's whole body was covered with dry blades of grass and black soil, and there were several grass clippings in his hair, and his heavy coat was cut by the branches, and the brown coarse linen inside leaked out. His cheeks were red from the cold, and a thin layer of frost had condensed on his eyebrows. His hands were also frozen, and two wounds the size of a baby's mouth were opened, and the bright red flesh was turned out, looking terrifying. Those long, angular, cold eyes were bloodshot, as if they hadn't slept for days.
He just stood there quietly, tired and distressing.
Qin Forget looked at Huang Chuchu with a surprised face at the door, and a warm smile appeared on his face.
It was this smile that made Huang Chuchu cry all of a sudden, seeing Qin Wang's appearance, Huang Chuchu suddenly regretted it, why did he have to have that fire fox skin? Why does Qin Forget to go on an adventure? She never thought that the two foxes would be so difficult to catch, she really didn't mean to, she just didn't understand.
She didn't know that seeing Qin Wang's tired appearance, she would feel so distressed. If something happens, she will never forgive herself.
Qin Forget slowly walked in front of Huang Chuchu, whose face was full of tears, "Chuchu, I'm back." This is the fox fur you want. He took off the two skins on his shoulders and handed them to Huang Chuchu.
Huang Chuchu didn't pay attention to the two skins at all, and just stared at Qin Wang's face with teary eyes, as if he would suddenly disappear. "Are you alright? I really didn't mean to, I didn't know these two brutes would be so hard to catch, if I knew, I wouldn't want anything, I'm sorry, I'm sorry. Huang Chuchu couldn't control his emotions anymore, and suddenly threw himself into Qin Wang's arms, apologizing and crying bitterly.
"It's okay, these two little things are a little more cunning, but they are not so wasteful." Wen Xiang was full of arms, and Qin Forget gently patted Huang Chuchu's shoulder with a little embarrassment, and comforted.
Huang Tian next to him looked at the performance of the two, and a look of surprise and solemnity flashed on his face.
"Ahemγγγγγγ" Huang Tian couldn't stand it anymore, he would never allow his sister to have anything to do with Qin Wang, a rough billet in the mountains. What's more, in the back office of the county government, the daughter of the county order hugged a strange man, and spread what it looked like? He pretended to cough a few times and interrupted Huang Chuchu and the others.
"Chu Chu, it's not early, the banquet is about to start." He said to Huang Chuchu, "Look at you, what do you look like?" If you don't touch up your makeup, how can you meet people? β
Interrupted by his brother, Huang Chuchu glared at Huang Tian angrily and ashamedly, "Qin Wang, you are waiting for me here, I asked my father to meet you, he said that he wanted to thank you personally." You promised me that you must wait for me. Ignoring his brother, Huang Chuchu looked at Qin Forget with an expectant face.
The expectation in Huang Chuchu's eyes made Qin Forget unable to bear to refuse, and he nodded slightly.
Huang Chuchu burst into tears and laughed, and trotted to touch up his makeup.
"Qin forgets, right?" Seeing his sister walking away, Huang Tian walked up with an unkind face, "Even if you saved Huang Chuchu last time, I hope you can pay attention to your identity." A pariah is a pariah, and a toad doesn't want to eat swan meat! β
Huang Tian's words were hard to hear, but Qin Forget was not angry at all, "It turns out that you are not so useless, at least you still care about your sister very much." He said with a sneer.
"What a dog's guts! Do you believe that I can make it impossible for you to get out of this courtyard? Seeing Qin Wang's cynicism, Huang Tian was furious and threatened with a twisted face of overindulgence.
"Then you can try!" As for the words that threatened him, Qin Forget would never treat them as just talking, his eyes were full of cold light, and his right hand was already holding the hunting knife.
"What are you talking about?" At this moment, Huang Chuchu made up his makeup and walked out, and said to the two.
Huang Tian originally wanted to scold Qin Wang, but when he saw Huang Chuchu come out, he swallowed it alive, but just glared at Qin Forget fiercely.
Qin Forget also let go of his right hand holding the hunting knife, and his face softened, as if nothing had happened.
Huang Chuchu walked over with a plate of pastries, "Qin Wang, you pad your stomach first, wait until my father summons you to the banquet, and then I will take you to eat delicious food." β
"Okay." Qin Forget smiled and nodded, and said softly.
"Then you take a rest here first, you must not leave, someone will arrange you later." It was the first time for Huang Chuchu to see Qin Forget talking to her so gently, and his eyes lit up with joy.
Huang Chuchu and they went to celebrate their birthday, and before she left, she told Qin Forget not to leave first.
The gatehouse of the county commander's house is actually so spacious, it is as big as the two rooms of Qin Wang's house. The blazing charcoal fire drove away the cold in the room, and speaking of which, it was the first time Qin Wangchang had seen such a good house. Such a warm room is a good place to sleep in such a season.
Qin Forget was also sleeping, he was so tired, in order to hunt those two fox skins in less than three days, Qin Forget stayed awake for three days, even if he was as strong as him, he couldn't bear it, and sat in the chair and slept deeply.
Foxes are elves in the jungle, especially white foxes, who are extremely intelligent. In the season when the mountains and forests are all covered by heavy snow, the white foxes will blend well with the heavy snow, and even if they appear in front of people, they will not be able to find them if they do not look closely. Qin Forget finally found a white fox, and chased and fled with it for two days and two nights before hunting it, and the cunning white fox almost killed Qin Forget in the forest.
He slept in a strange position, obviously he was already asleep, but his body was not as comfortable as ordinary people. His entire back was tensed forward like a bow, his feet were pressed tightly on the ground, and his right hand hung down from his right leg, where a wide short knife was hidden. Press the back of the chair with your left hand, so that you can press the chair at any time to exert force. Even when he was asleep, he always maintained a fighting posture at any time. The incident of such a long time also made Qin Forget feel very insecure, and when he first came to a strange place, he was extremely vigilant.
It's not that Huang Chuchu treats him badly when he sleeps in the porter, it's just that the big family has its own big family rules, and if you are not a close relative, a male guest must not stay in the backyard. So Qin Forget was led out, and with Qin Wang's current identity, he couldn't go to the study or the side hall to wait, so he could only go to the gatehouse to stay, and Huang Chuchu couldn't change this.
"Wake up, wake up." A slight shake woke Qin Forget awake.
Qin Forget raised his head violently, and his eyes, which were originally full of bloodshots, turned red because of lack of sleep.
He reflexively grabbed the visitor, "Poof! With a clear roar, a thick hunting knife was already on the snow-white neck of the visitor.
"Who are you?" A low and cold voice sounded in Huang Chuchu's ears, and the cold blade on her neck gave her goosebumps all over her body.
"Are you crazy? I'm Huang Chuchu! Huang Chuchu's eyes widened in fright, staring at Qin Forget in fear.
Huang Chuchu's loud shout completely woke up Qin Wang. The bloodshot in his eyes quickly disappeared, and his pupils returned to clarity.
"I'm sorry, I didn't mean to." Qin Wu didn't know how to explain his current state to Huang Chuchu, so he could only apologize weakly.
"It's okay, you're probably too tired." Qin Wang's appearance just now really frightened Huang Chuchu, but she still said softly, "Then can you let go of your hand?" Huang Chuchu lowered his head, and his little face turned red.
"Huh? Oh...... There was a soft and firm feeling on his arm, and Qin Wangcai realized that he had touched the private parts of other girls. He quickly let go of his hand and took a quick step back, his face flushed, and he was at a loss for a moment, not knowing what to say.
Huang Chuchu also recovered immediately, looking at his helpless appearance, he was inexplicably a little distressed,
He is a year younger than himself, and this state may have been cultivated by the fact that he has never lived a good life without worrying about food and clothing, and has lived on the verge of death for a long time. What's more, this time he was tired like this because he was tired of fighting the fire fox of Narauschzi, how could he blame him?
"Thank you so much this time. Isn't it hard for you? Thinking of this, Huang Chuchu asked thoughtfully.
"It's nothing hard to work on, we've all been used to it since we were kids. Besides, I didn't promise you this time. Seriously, thank you for all the stuff you gave us, especially the four mules, thank you so much. Huang Chuchu generously broke the silence, but Qin Forget was embarrassed.
"So you promised me?" Huang Chuchu lowered his head in frustration, but quickly cheered up, "Okay, my father wants to see you, come with me." Huang Chuchu stopped talking about it, turned around and walked towards the door.
