Chapter 387: Falling
"There is another way out," Hei Zhuang repeated my words, laughing out loud, "On this desert island where no birds want to, what nonsense are you talking about, you don't want to build a boat, then you can build a bridge if you have the ability, and it will lead directly to the inland," After speaking, he left without even looking at us, leaving my wife and I to look at each other.
Hei Zhuang was angry, and that was the only conclusion I could come to, and although I didn't know why he was angry, there was no doubt that the meeting ended unhappily.
Could it be because it took him too much time to bury Xiaoyan, but Hei Zhuang has never been a ruthless and unrighteous person, and the Hei Zhuang I know will not be angry because of such a thing, I shook my head and denied my ridiculous idea. Could it be that I provoked the screws, but this matter is a natural disaster rather than a man-made disaster, and there is no reason for Hei Zhuang to spill his anger on me.
I didn't think anything was right, then my stomach rumbled in protest, I looked at Momo with blank eyes, except for the black strong who ran somewhere, I could only see my wife who was bored and in a daze.
I patted my wife on the shoulder and asked her to go with me to pick some fruit from the tree.
It may be the reason why the trees are lush and sunny, the fruits on the trees are huge, it is no exaggeration to say that an apple on the tree is the size of my whole face, the bad thing is that there are more fruits on the tree, and there are many insects around the fruit, I feel okay as a big man, but my wife didn't say a word along the way, but I can see with my own eyes that she was bitten out of one red bag after another, which is particularly dazzling on her fair skin.
I quickened my pace, I just wanted to finish picking the fruit quickly and go back, otherwise it would be too painful to be bitten by small insects here.
I had already developed my ability to climb trees, so I picked some apples from the tree and jumped up to another tree to pick some more peaches.
Since I didn't want to run around like this anymore, I was going to grab a few more and leave this time, so that I could concentrate on my next step.
I handed the fruit to my wife, who hugged her and grabbed a lot of them.
When I felt that the fruit I had picked was almost the same, I jumped down from the tree, and my wife was so startled by me that she even shook off several fruits in her arm.
My wife and I hugged back the fruit in this way, talking and laughing all the way, and the suppressed emotions of the past two days were slightly released in a relaxed and happy chat.
But we chatted so happily, as if there would always be stumbling blocks on the road, and if we didn't pay attention, the stones under our feet would trip my wife and chew the mud, and the fruit would roll away from me.
I didn't have the extra mood to care about the fruit, I watched my wife lying motionless on the ground and embarrassed, put the fruit in my arms on the ground, and walked over quickly to help her up.
"Wife?" I shouted tentatively, my wife buried her head between her arms, I couldn't see the expression on her face, I didn't understand whether her knock hurt or not, whether the injury was serious, did she faint or was she embarrassed to look up because of shame?
At this time, I still let others guess what little emotions, I rubbed my hair in annoyance and anger, looked at the rotten peach that rolled to my feet, and flew out and kicked it away.
After a while, my wife got up on her own, dusted off the ashes on her body, if it weren't for the fruit that accidentally squeezed her clothes and made a mess under her, as well as the scratches left on her legs, her indifferent and indifferent expression would not have believed that such a person had just fallen and gnawed on mud.
I watched my wife limp forward, I picked up the fruit on the ground, walked quickly to her, and crouched down.
"What," I said, turning my head to look at her, making a gesture to carry her.
A few traces of entanglement and complexity flashed in her eyes, and I didn't have much patience, so I said angrily, "Don't be reckless at this time, do you think it will be of any use, don't wait until I'm in a bad temper and leave yourself here at night." ”
It may have been that my intimidation had an effect, and my wife didn't do any more entanglement, she just lay on my back, softly wrapped her hands around my neck, and I also held up her two jade legs with both hands.
My breath was a little unsteady, and I looked at my slightly swollen lower body and silently despised myself, and while taking a deep breath, I quickly put my wife into the cave.
Momo's mood has recovered a lot, and seeing her sister looking so embarrassed, she helped my wife on my back to put her down and let her sit on the ground.
At this time, Hei Zhuang also ran over and looked at his wife, who was covered in injuries, and looked at me angrily.
I don't care about what kind of misunderstanding he has about me, it's not so much that I'm not in the mood, but I don't have that kind of time, I roughly checked my wife's wound, and fortunately it was just a light knock on the stone, but it was still a little worn and bleeding, and it looked a little scary.
"What's going on?" Momo also said in a reproachful tone, as if saying that no matter how I pick a fruit, it can hurt people.
Before I could speak, my wife interrupted Momo first and said, "It's not your brother-in-law's problem, it's that I didn't see the road clearly on the way back and fell, if it wasn't for your brother-in-law carrying me, I wouldn't be able to come back." ”
"I'm sorry," Momo bit her lip and apologized for the misunderstanding she had just had.
Hei Zhuang didn't speak, but he looked at me apologetically.
I smiled nonchalantly, now that I've sent my wife back, then I'll need to get up and go to collect the medicine next.
As soon as I stood up, Momo quickly grabbed my clothes, and his eyes were like cats that didn't want his owner to go out, reluctant but well-behaved, "Where are you going?" ”
My heart was turned into a piece by this gaze, and I rubbed her head dotingly, "Go pick some herbs for your sister." ”
Momo reluctantly let go of her little hand, and I walked deeper into the woods without looking back.
Autumn is getting stronger, the leaves are rustling to the ground, I gradually heard the footsteps behind me, turned my head to see, it was actually black strong.
Seeing that I turned my head, he didn't continue to follow, but stood there and stared at me blankly.
I knew he wanted to show favor, but I was too embarrassed to say it, so I sighed and broke the silence first, "Why don't you hurry up and keep up?" ”
"Good.... Good. He looked at me with some gratitude as if he hadn't expected me to forgive him so easily.
It's not so much that I'm not angry, but that I'm learning more and more on the island that anger and anger do no good but make me more sad.
There is a naturally formed land on the island, on which many trees are planted, and it is strange that these trees only grow leaves and do not bear fruit, and the trees that do not bear fruit naturally do not have much use value for us, so I did not pay much attention to it, and it was a chance moment of climbing trees to pick fruits that I found this strangely shaped fallen leaf on the ground, and I thought that it could help to heal the wound.
My wife's wound was not very serious, and Hei Zhuang and I didn't pick up too many leaves, and by the time we finished picking them up, Momo had already made a fire in advance.
I gently heated the leaf on the fire a few times, and quickly pressed it against my wife's wound, my wife's leg subconsciously stepped back, and I patted her back soothingly, hoping to relieve some of her pain.
"This island is amazing," Momo sighed, and she had finally learned to be clever enough to change the subject.
"What's wrong?" The wife really hung up her appetite, although Momo changed the topic without any skill and was very blunt.
"You see there are big and sweet fruits on the island," Momo said as she took a bite of the fruit next to her, making a crisp sound of the peel and flesh detaching, as if to prove Momo's words, "In addition to these, there are actually herbs on the island that can cure diseases," Momo said vaguely with the fruit in her mouth.
"Yes, it's strange why there is no one else on the island but us, such an island should be very popular logically," the wife nodded in agreement.
Time passed little by little in their warm conversations, and when their mouths were a little dry, Hei Zhuang handed them fruits to eat, and when they said that they were tired and full, and the medicine had been applied, the air was filled with a slightly bitter and sweet taste.
Momo and his wife hugged each other and fell asleep, leaving me and Hei Qiang staring at each other, it was actually almost my wife's birthday, although it was not too easy to even live on a desert island, and it was precisely because of the hard life on the island that we had to pay attention to the sense of ritual, and I don't know which day may be the last day of our lives.
"It's my wife's birthday in a few days," I said to Hei Zhuang as I broke the silence.
My wife's admirer was very calm, and he just nodded quietly.
"We've got to get something ready," I said, looking helplessly.
"Preparations must be needed," he stretched, "Isn't there still a few days, let's wait until tomorrow to plan slowly," Hei Zhuang looked at me with a caring look for the mentally retarded.
I know that he thought that I had been busy today and didn't have a good rest, and wanted me to stop worrying so much about resting and resting, but his tone was still so hard, I thought it was a little funny.
"Let me prepare for your wife's birthday this time, you've already worried too much about us," Hei Zhuang waited for a long time before he slowly spoke.
"Okay," I was naturally happy, and I was very much looking forward to what Hei Zhuang could do with such a desert island birthday party.
We talked casually again, and we had something to do tomorrow, and we were both very tired, so we simply cleaned up the burned leaves, extinguished the wood that was still burning, and closed my heavy eyelids in the dark night.
