The two walked back with empty frames on their backs, and Shen Xiuyuan said, "Winter solstice." ”

"What's wrong?" Mu Dongzhi was shouted by Shen Xiuyuan, and immediately turned around and looked at him.

Shen Xiuyuan said: "There is a custom in Hewan Village that it is not advisable to go home empty-handed after returning home. ”

"Huh?" Mu Dongzhi knew what he meant, and he said that his mother's family should return something.

But she didn't understand it.

"So, what about that?" Mu Dongzhi asked nervously.

You can't walk on the road and pick up some stump and carry it back, right?

"It's better for you to squat in the frame, and I'll carry you. It's not an empty box anymore. Shen Xiuyuan said.

Mu Dongzhi's face turned red uncontrollably, and said, "How old am I, and I still sit in the frame?" ”

Shen Xiuyuan pressed down the bad water in his stomach, deliberately frowned, and said, "Then what should we do if our frame is empty?"

Mu Dongzhi thought about it, but he didn't know how to do it, so he had to listen to Shen Xiuyuan.

So, Shen Xiuyuan put the two boxes together and let Mu Dongzhi squat in.

Mu Dongzhi squatted in the frame, Shen Xiuyuan carried her up, and the corners of his mouth slowly raised upward, it's not too much to bully the little lady, right?

"You're too far back, struggling on your back, leaning forward."

Mu Dongzhi leaned forward.

"Wrap your arms around your neck."

Mu Dongzhi obediently hugged his neck.

Her posture was not lightly handled, and Shen Xiuyuan was not tired when he first started walking with her on his back, but after walking for a long time, he was also tired and panicked.

However, he is willing to be tired, and no one can help it.

Shen Xiuyuan carried her on his back and walked a long way, and when he arrived at a place where there was no village in front of him and no shop behind her, Mu Dongzhi said:

"I—I want to go to ......"

"What are you going to do?"

"Go to the toilet."

Shen Xiuyuan's ears were slightly red, and he put her down.

Mu Dongzhi hurriedly ran to the grass on the side, and was about to leave after solving it, but he didn't want to hear movement behind him.

She looked back and saw that something seemed to be moving in the thorn bushes not far away.

"Brother Yuan, Brother Yuan......" Mu Dongzhi hurriedly shouted.

Shen Xiuyuan heard her voice eagerly, and hurriedly ran towards her, saying as he ran:

"Don't be afraid, I'm here."

He ran to Mu Dongzhi's side in a few steps, and finally breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that she was intact.

Mu Dongzhi grabbed his arm with both hands, pointed to the thorn bush, and said, "There's something there." ”

Shen Xiuyuan said: "You stand farther away, I'll go over and take a look." ”

Mu Dongzhi thought about it, found two stones and held them in her hands, thinking that if there was any danger, she could throw them with one stone.

Shen Xiuyuan slowly approached the thorn bush, picked some open with a stick, and saw that it was a deer inside.

"Winter solstice, my blessing." Shen Xiuyuan excitedly dropped the stick and turned around to pick up Mu Dongzhi.

Mu Dongzhi was a little dizzy by him and asked, "What is it?" ”

"It's a deer." Shen Xiuyuan put her down and turned to the side of the thorn bush.

Mu Dongzhi also followed, and found that it was a big python entangled with a deer.

When she saw the python, she was terrified.

Shen Xiuyuan picked up the stone and smashed it towards the python.

Where did the python give up its mouth to be robbed of food?

Wrap the deer tighter.

Shen Xiuyuan continued to smash the python, and Mu Dongzhi also followed.

Seeing that his life was in danger, the python had to let go of the deer and fled towards the mountain.

Mu Dongzhi looked at the mountain with palpitations and asked, "That python won't come back, right?" ”

"No, we'll carry the deer away."

Mu Dongzhi immediately stepped forward to give him a hand.

This deer is quite heavy, and it must weigh one hundred and fifty pounds to say the least.

The two of them got the deer on the road, and they were already tired and sweating.

Mu Dongzhi said: "I'll go back and call the big brother." ”

"I'm not at ease with you alone." Shen Xiuyuan said.

"What then?"

"I'm carrying it." Shen Xiuyuan said and asked Mu Dongzhi to help him carry the deer on his back.

Mu Dongzhi hurriedly followed with two frames.

Shen Xiuyuan walked two miles with the deer on his back and couldn't walk.

Mu Dongzhi said: "It's better to go back and find the big brother, the big brother has a lot of strength." ”

Shen Xiuyuan's eyes sank, and he said, "I don't know if there is a big python on the road." ”

Mu Dongzhi heard that there was a big python on the road, and he was suddenly trembling with fright.

Shen Xiuyuan said: "We can't be separated, let's think of a way." ”

Mu Dongzhi didn't say anything more.

Shen Xiuyuan used his brain when he sat and rested.

He found some weeds from the side of the road, braided them into ropes, and tied the two boxes together.

The two of them carried the deer to the frame, one carrying the frame, and the other carrying the frame, and moved home step by step.

And so they moved seven or eight miles, and it was getting dark.

According to their method, I am afraid that I will not be able to get home if I move overnight.

They got up in the morning and ate a meal, but they didn't eat at noon, and they became more and more weak.

While the two were in trouble, a man was walking towards them not far away.

"It's Big Brother." Mu Dongzhi said happily.

Shen Xiuyuan looked up, and sure enough, it was Shen Kuan who came.

The two put down the deer and stood in place and waited.

Before Shen Kuan arrived, Mu Dongzhi ran over happily and said, "Big brother, we picked up a deer." ”

"Deer?" Shen Kuan walked around her and stepped forward quickly.

Shen Xiuyuan said, "Brother, why are you here?" ”

"Counting that you should go back today, you can't wait for anyone left and right, come out and have a look." Shen Kuan said.

Before his father died, he entrusted this younger brother to him, and asked him to make a poisonous oath to heaven to protect his younger brother with his life.

If he doesn't come back when he should come back, he can't sit still at home.

It was finally a relief to see that he was intact.

Shen Xiuyuan said: "I picked up a deer on the winter solstice. ”

Only then did Shen Kuan look at the deer on the frame, grabbed the deer's legs, carried the deer on his shoulders, and turned around to leave.

Shen Xiuyuan immediately untied the frame, stacked the two together, and followed with Mu Dongzhi.

Without the deer, the two walked much briskly.

However, in the end, I was still tired, and it was already dark when I got home.

Shen Kuan carried the deer all the way back, and he was not light when he got home.

The three of them rested for a while, and Mu Dongzhi got up to make dinner.

Shen Kuan sharpened his knife Huo Huo and prepared to give the deer to Huo Huo.

Shen Xiuyuan hurriedly said, "Brother, wait a minute. ”

"What's wrong?" Shen Kuan asked.

"Listen to me, you can make more money by selling venison tomorrow." Shen Xiuyuan said.

Shen Kuan frowned, the left and right are not all venison, where can he earn more?

The two of them were making deer outside, cooking porridge and baking cakes on the winter solstice.

When he went out, he saw Shen Kuan cut off the antlers and began to peel them again, so he said:

"Big brother, can you cut a piece of this venison and fry it?"

When Shen Kuan heard this, he cut a large piece of the meat on the deer's leg and gave it to Mu Dongzhi.

After Mu Dongzhi took it in, he began to clean, and then slice and prepare to stir-fry the venison.

She hadn't eaten venison yet, and it was all made according to the pork's recipe.

The two brothers smelled the venison outside, and they didn't want to work anymore.

Still, the money has to be earned.
