At this time, the sun climbed to the center of the sky, and it was noon, and after Shen Shuang and Xiao Orion had eaten dry food, they began to look for mushrooms in the huge pine forest.

The pine forest was very large, and in order to avoid getting lost, neither of them went far, and from time to time they would look up at each other.

And there are indeed a lot of mushrooms here, it is not difficult to find them at all, they are much fatter than the mushrooms in the previous spring, and there are quite a lot of varieties, Shen Shuang saw some that he had never seen, and he didn't dare to pick them without authorization, for fear that he would accidentally pick poisonous mushrooms.

Shen Shuang took a small stick and rummaged under the pine leaves under the tree, and it didn't take long for him to find several large mushrooms, but it was also thanks to the rain last night.

The little wolf cub didn't know where to run to play since it came to the pine forest, and Shen Shuang no longer worried about it getting lost, because it would often sneak out now, and from time to time it would drag back the little prey, which proved that it still knew the way home, and it was unwise to detain it.

The two of them looked around the pine forest for almost an hour, and then filled the big back basket that Shen Shuang carried. In addition to the most common pine mushroom, the little hunter also found quite a few white fungus, all of which grew on the same large dead tree. He only recognized the black fungus, but he had never seen the white one, so he had to call Shen Shuang to identify it.

Shen Shuang's eyes lit up when he saw the white fungus, and he hurriedly picked one up and handed it to the little hunter to popularize knowledge for him.

"This is white fungus, also called snow fungus, rare, it can be used to cook peach gum, better than black fungus, we have picked it, and when the time comes, it will be used to boil peach gum snow fungus syrup, just to cool off."

The little hunter nodded, and helped with the picking.

To avoid mixing mushrooms and snow fungus, Shen Shuang spread some pine leaves on the mushrooms, so that the snow fungus was put away, and then a layer of pine leaves was laid, and she was not afraid that the snow fungus would fall out when she was walking on the mountain road.

When the two of them picked mushrooms and went down the mountain, it was not early, and it took more than an hour to go down the mountain, and it was not easy to walk on the east and west roads on their backs, so Shen Shuang fell several times.

Seeing this, the little Orion didn't take her back and forth, but picked another shortcut that the villagers often take, in order to prevent the villagers from thinking about them when they saw them, the little Orion let her go first, Shen Shuang was unwilling.

"I haven't walked this way, I'm going to get lost, why go first."

Shen Shuang knew what he was thinking when he saw the little Orion's somewhat evasive eyes, so he suddenly opened his mouth, "You, are you afraid that if you run into the villagers, you will be gossiped by them?" ”

The little hunter did not evade, and nodded calmly, "Yes, it will affect your reputation, not good." ”

Shen Shuang snorted, looking indifferent.

"I don't care, the mouth grows on others, they can say whatever they want, they gossip, it's theirs in the first place, why should I follow their wishes?"

Little Orion frowned, he was powerless to resist before, and he couldn't say it yet.

But now, although he is not very eloquent, he can at least refute her and try his best to convince her.

"Little Frost ......"

The first time he called Shen Shuang's name, Little Orion was a little unaccustomed to it, and he also had a trace of helplessness.

Although he had called her many times in his heart, but this was the first time he had really screamed, and his ears couldn't help but be a little red and a little hot.

He swallowed, pretending to be a little serious, "You are a girl, and a girl's reputation is very important. ”

Shen Shuang looked at him and found that his ears were a little red, as if he didn't dare to look at her directly, she felt a little funny at this moment, and she didn't take his words to heart at all, "So? ”

Little Orion really didn't dare to look directly at Shen Shuang, his eyes were a little erratic at this time, but his tone was firm, "I'm deeply sorry for affecting your reputation before." ”

Shen Shuang pulled his attention away from his red ears, looked at him, and asked, "So what?" ”

Little Orion frowned slightly, and was about to say something, but Shen Shuang didn't want to listen, and waved his hand to tell him not to speak.

Even if he hadn't opened his mouth yet, Shen Shuang just knew that what he was going to say was nothing more than something, and he was bent on standing in his point of view, saying that it was for her good, and it must be a very annoying thing.

She always hoped that the little Orion would be able to communicate with her normally after speaking, but she didn't like the content of this normal exchange to have anything to do with any big truth.

It's not that she doesn't know that ancient times paid a lot of attention to the so-called fame, but she, a modern person, really doesn't want to accept it.

Moreover, when it comes to this so-called reputation, Shen Shuang feels irritable, she naturally knows that her grandmother wants to marry her off as soon as possible every day.

If her grandmother had a tough attitude, and she had indeed reached the age where she could marry in ancient times, she would have been forced to marry someone she had never met, which she would never accept.

By that time, Shen Shuang had already seriously thought about it, she wanted to escape from marriage, she must escape from marriage, and she had thought about the steps to escape marriage.

When the time comes, she will go to Jiang Zitong to help her escape, and go to a place where her grandmother can't find her, the best is the capital, she wants to see how prosperous the real capital is, and then open a small shop by the way to make a living, and walk around when she saves enough money.

If her father and mother are willing to come, they will take them over, if they are not willing to come, she will have to live alone, it is not very lonely, she can take it for nothing.

Although these things seemed to be a little far away, Shen Shuang felt that he had to be a little anxious.

As for what Little Orion was going to tell her, she didn't want to hear it, she squeezed out a smile and looked at him with an expression that couldn't be more serious.

"Stuffy gourd, I actually know that you are for my good. But I think if you're doing it for my own good, go ahead of me and lead me, or I'll probably be taken by a wolf, or walk and slip into a trap and die. ”

The little hunter thought that she was worried that she was lost, so she hurriedly said, "I'll go after you, not far away, don't worry." ”

Shen Shuang was a little helpless, "I'm just a metaphor, what I want to say is that there is no problem at all when we walk together, you are not some kind of bad luck that they spread rumors, I will be unlucky when I get close, and the two of us have nothing bad to do, we are friends, friends should go together, why are you afraid of wolves and tigers?" ”

"Reputation may be a good thing, maybe my third uncle cares, but I don't plan to take the Xiucai exam, and of course I can't take the exam; Second, reputation is something that can't be eaten, if I want to avoid this for the sake of fame, which one to avoid, and I can't do anything, I might as well not care about anything. Anyway, I don't want to get married, whatever others say. ”

When Little Orion heard Shen Shuang's last words, he looked at her with some shock.

Shen Shuang felt that they needed to take some time to deal with the problem they were facing, so he followed the slope of the steep slope on the side and put down the back basket on his back, "Put the back basket down first, rest for a while, let's talk slowly." ”

It's still early, she's not in a hurry, and this side is close to the mountain stream, and she can still hear the sound of the gurgling stream, knowing the screams and the wind, she can rest for a while.

The little hunter was shocked and did the same, and both of them were on the side of the hill.

Shen Shuang didn't twist either, and gave out all his thoughts and the little hunter.

In ancient times, Shen Shuang didn't think about developing feelings for the time being.

Even if Jiang Zitong asked her if she liked Little Orion before, she was really not sure.

Maybe she likes it a little, but even if she likes it, she doesn't think it means that the two of them will have any development.

She felt that in such an era, in a closed Xishan village, there were too many uncertain factors.

It's a bit of a headache to think too much, so it's better to let everything take its course.

In addition, because Shen Shuang had never liked people before, she was not sure if she had a good impression of Little Orion, and she didn't want to wonder if Little Orion would feel a little bit about her.

Shen Shuang felt that when she retold and wrote down the stories she had read in her mind recently, she thought about it a lot.

She feels like she is acting in a TV series, as written, maybe she Shen Shuang came here, it was an accident, that is, to be a cannon fodder role, it doesn't matter who is the protagonist, she wants to live as the protagonist in her life.

So, she doesn't want to be involved with too many people, and it's best if everything goes naturally.

Shen Shuang didn't say that she was a modern soul, and then she came to the ancient world to tell it honestly, she was afraid that the little hunter would be scared to death, after all, he seemed to be able to accept such a thing, but she still didn't want to be scared, or let him have any opinion of herself.

"My thoughts, which may sound more shocking to you, may sound more shocking, but this is really me. I don't know what will happen in the future, but at least I don't want to live in the eyes of others, what does it matter to me, and I don't live for them, right? ”

Little Orion felt that all the sounds in the mountains had disappeared, and he could only hear Shen Shuang's words circling in his head.

It is indeed very shocking, even in a place where the folk customs are re-civilized, maybe no girl will generously say that she doesn't want to marry, she doesn't want to live for others all her life, she doesn't want to be afraid of other people's gossip all her life and live a shrunken life, and she doesn't want to marry a man she has never seen.

Little Orion couldn't refute it at all, because he felt that what Shen Shuang said was not wrong, but he didn't know how to agree with her, because he felt that she was going to get married, and a woman should have someone to rely on for her whole life.

Seeing that the little hunter was silent, Shen Shuang was a little apprehensive and a little sullen.

Although she didn't think that the little Orion would understand her and agree with her, she would give her a little reaction, even if it was to persuade her not to think like this.

"Hey, stuffy gourd, don't you think my thoughts are too shocking to talk to me? I'm just saying what I really think. ”

The little Orion's mouth moved, and he glanced at her, then looked away, looking at the trees in front of him, and could not hear what kind of emotion was in his voice.

"No, I just think that your idea is good, but maybe it won't be approved by your family."

As he spoke, the little Orion turned his head, "Still, I'll be on your side." ”

Shen Shuang's eyes lit up, "Do you think my idea is good?" Are you sure? ”
