Chapter 331: The Maiden's Decision
The horse's hooves splashed the mud from a shallow puddle on the side of the road, splashing the old woman's body, and when Huan'er saw it, she turned and scolded her angrily: "Who is this? Aren't you blind, aren't you afraid of hitting people when you run so fast on horseback, hey......"
As he spoke, he shouted and saw that even the people and horses were shouting farther and farther, and he didn't mean to stop and apologize at all. Huan'er squinted her eyes inadvertently in a huff, and simply leaned down to pick up a stone by the side of the road, glanced ahead, and then threw it vigorously and fiercely at the butt of a horse behind her.
On weekdays, the vegetable garden where she works hard is always patronized by some stupid chickens who like to wander around looking for insects to eat, so that she has already practiced a good skill in fighting chickens. There have been countless times that just a lump of dirt can make the majestic stupid chickens run away in a hurry with a limp.
Sure enough, not long after the pebble flew out, there was a neighing of horses in the night sky.
"Hahaha... Hahaha... Let you be blind and follow your unsightly master on a rampage, and this girl will let you taste my pebble missiles today. Huan'er covered her mouth and immediately smiled and bent over.
The old woman took out a handkerchief and rubbed the dirt on her body a little twice by the moonlight, then hurriedly went over and dragged Huan'er back, and said worriedly: "Huan'er don't be naughty!" During this time, many strangers came to the village one after another, and I am afraid that there will be more in the future. It seems that something big is going to happen in the world? Perhaps, it's time for our master and servant to leave! ”
Hearing this, the smile on Huan'er's face suddenly froze, and she looked at the old woman's face blankly, and said in surprise and puzzlement: "Leave?" Isn't it nice that we've been living here for the past eight years? Why leave? ”
The old woman swept around, stared at the magnificent and tranquil landscape painting scroll under the night in front of her, and said meaningfully: "Life is four natures, it comes by chance, and it is inevitable to go. The breeze and the moon, the great rivers and mountains, the ten miles of peach forest, isolated from the world, here is indeed a good place to wash away the lead, let people look down on the vicissitudes of the world, and forget the disturbances of the world. Unknowingly, eight years have passed, and now I am leaving, and the old body is also very reluctant. But we must not implicate the land here in the wanton trampling of horses' hooves, and the innocent people are constantly harassed for no reason......"
Before the old woman could finish speaking, Huan'er interrupted her anxiously: "Those strong men in red will not come again, King Qin will personally go out, and he will definitely capture all those people this time."
The old woman looked at Huan'er's big watery and innocent eyes, sighed, stroked her hair and said gently: "Silly boy, even if there is no Snapdragon Club, there will be this club, that gang, and another faction in the future." As soon as this continent is not reunified, more and more ambitious people will rise up in the countries, and the people will always have to live on thin ice with their heads in their hands, you know? ”
Hearing this, Huan'er was speechless and hung her head silently, thinking solemnly.
The old woman shook her head slightly, took off the bamboo basket on Huan'er's arm, and dragged Huan'er to pace forward, while saying, "Since you can't escape the world, just go back and face it, it's time to visit and visit old friends, and settle the accounts of eight years ago!"
Huan'er followed the old woman's footsteps, muttered a small mouth, and said in a puzzled voice, "Old lady, what are you talking about?" Huan'er doesn't understand? ”
"Huan'er, don't you want to see the outside world?" The old woman smiled faintly and asked Huan'er.
"I ......" Huan'er seemed to have some indescribable concerns, maybe she couldn't tell herself. Maybe it's because there's her father's grave here, at least whenever she's happy or sad, she can go and talk to them, or maybe she wants to wait for the handsome boy who saved her in danger to come back, or maybe ......
Seeing that Huan'er didn't squeak for a long time, the old woman deliberately asked tentatively, "Don't you want to stay here?" Okay, then I'll entrust you to the old patriarch to take care of ......."
Hearing this, Huan'er suddenly came back to her senses, stepped forward and stopped in front of the old woman, and blurted out excitedly: "Huan'er's life was saved by the old lady, where the old lady goes, Huan'er will go, Huan'er don't stay here, the old lady don't leave Huan'er alone."
The old woman suddenly turned her head to cover her mouth, the corners of her mouth rose slightly, and she secretly felt a joy in her heart, and then said to her quite seriously: "Huan'er, the old body knows that you are reluctant to give up your father." But they're dead, and it's time for you to have your own plans and your life again. You answer honestly, are you, are you still waiting for that Lu Gongzi? ”
Huan'er thought that the girl's heart that she had always carefully treasured was discovered naked like this. Suddenly, the six gods didn't know how to respond, so they only lowered their heads and said with a red face: "Old lady, I ......"
The old woman gently grabbed Huan'er's pair of jade hands like congealed cream, looked at them for a while, and said, "You are trained by the old body, how can your mind and the old body not know?" Seeing that in two years, it is indeed time for you to get married, and the old body still wants to find a good home for you. Rest assured, you will definitely see him again. It's just that... When the time comes, I hope you will not be disappointed. Sometimes, what we see may not be true. For people and things, this is probably the truth. ”
Hearing this, Huan'er suddenly became energetic, stretched out her hand and quickly removed the bamboo basket on the crook of the old woman's arm, and said happily: "Let Huan'er come, Huan'er actually doesn't ask for anything, as long as she can see that son again, Huan'er."
