Chapter 597
When the girl heard the words of the hunter's eldest brother, she didn't know where she got the courage, and immediately took it and said; "Who doesn't want to live a good life, but to live a good life, I'm afraid it's even more difficult for me!"
When the hunter heard the girl's words, he secretly thought that it was not good, he seemed to have stabbed a hornet's nest, maybe he had inadvertently said the girl's sore spot, maybe, forget it, don't maybe, his original idea was to send the girl back home, even if the task was completed, it would be worthy of his conscience, or it would be better not to mention anything else.
But why did he say such a thing, really, I was afraid that I would be asking for trouble, and the hunter was complaining that his mouth was not guarded, but when he saw the expectant look of the girl, he thought to himself, if he did not pick up, it seemed, as if something was wrong, and perhaps people would think that he still had some selfish motives, so he replied at once; "Things in this world are like this, good things can't be all done by one person, and bad things can't all be touched by you alone, isn't there a saying called bitter sweetness, I think that's probably what it means."
When the girl heard the words of the hunter, she seemed to be encouraged, and she immediately said; "I think so, I once thought about death, but when I thought of my elderly parents, I haven't started a family yet, so I gritted my teeth and survived, this life, I waited for you, I thought, I met you, and it should be bittersweet in the future."
In the turbulent home, in full view of everyone, the two men did not say anything, and when they fell from the sky, their personalities seemed to change, and both of them became fond of talking to each other, and liked to know more about each other, so when the girl had finished saying that the bitterness had come, the man immediately echoed; "I believe what you say, but it's not because you met me, but because you met half of my master, to be honest, without my half of the master, we can't fight against them together."
The last thing the girl wanted to mention was Hun Heng, because just now the hunter picked up her feet and instantly got her dislocated foot and neck right, I don't know why, she suddenly had a thought, she must forget the Hun Heng and that period of suffering, otherwise, she would not have a good life in the future, so when the hunter inadvertently mentioned Hun Heng again, the girl immediately stopped talking.
Seeing that the girl suddenly ceased to squeak, the hunter seemed to notice something, so he diverted the conversation; "Sister, I don't think it's as good as this, in order to let you get home as soon as possible, I'll help you stand up first, and then I'll pick you up and become one of your legs, so maybe we can go on the road."
When the girl saw that the hunter was very reasonable, she immediately replied; "Okay!"
Because, in the girl's heart, she has imagined countless times what her parents will be like because they miss themselves, maybe their tears have long since dried up, maybe they are looking for themselves everywhere, hopefully, they can be at home, the girl began to pray in her heart.
Not to mention, when the hunter lifted the girl up again, and took one of the woman's arms on her shoulder, the girl was able to walk, although she walked very slowly, but the key to walking was not to be afraid of slowness and to be afraid to stand.
So the hunter took the girl by his arms, and left the little sapling, and at last moved to the foot of the mountain, and when they reached the foot of the mountain, they saw that there was still a ridge in front of them, although it was not very high, but the trees on it were very lush and lush, and at the foot of the mountain there was a field of crops, and when he saw the field, the hunter said; "It's not far from people."
The girl who was being held by the hunter also took it and said; "If there is really someone's house, let's ask how to go to Mapo Ridge by the way."
Hearing the girl's words, the hunter seemed to understand that Mapo Ridge must be close to the girl's house, but unfortunately, although he was a hunter and drilled ravines all day long, he had never heard of Mapo Ridge, otherwise, why bother to ask others, so he didn't squeak.
When the girl saw that the hunter did not squeak, but had other thoughts, she heard her say with some resentment; "Big brother, why didn't I hear you ask me about anyone else in my family on the way, do you not want to ask, or dislike me, or don't want to pay attention to me?"
The eldest brother of the hunter, when he heard the girl's words, knew that she was picking on reason, and immediately explained; "Sister, where are you talking about, it's too late for me to sympathize with your experience, how can I say that I dislike it, I didn't ask you who is in your family, one is afraid of provoking your sadness, and the other is that I think I have to send you home anyway to leave, I just follow you, and I will naturally know when I see your family, besides, I am a poor boy hunting in the mountains, and there are few words on weekdays, so please sister, don't blame, don't blame!"
The girl saw that he was very sincere, and explained it very well, so she dispelled her doubts before she spoke again; "There is a mountain called Mapo Ridge on the edge of the market town where my family lives, and people around dozens of miles know Mapo Ridge, of course, they all know that there is a Mapo tofu shop under Mapo Ridge, in fact, I am also surnamed Ma, and the tofu shop is opened by my father, if you send me to the house, I will definitely invite you to eat Mapo Tofu first, so that you can taste my craftsmanship."
Hearing this, the hunter seemed to be enlightened, and he took it and said; "I listen to the meaning of my sister's words, your tofu shop seems to be managed by you again."
Hearing the hunter guess the deep meaning of her words, the girl's eyes turned red and she choked up; "In a flash, more than half a month has passed, and I don't know if the two elders still have the heart to continue to open the store, alas!"
At this, the girl let out a long sigh, and the hunter knew that what he had just said aroused his eagerness to miss his parents, so he comforted; "I think, the second elder of your family must be waiting for you to come home safely, maybe, when we arrive at the door, the second elder will come out to greet us!"
The hunter said this, perhaps to divert the girl's attention, and went on to speak; "My sister has never asked me who my surname is, since my sister introduced her surname just now, I should also tell my name to my sister, lest the girl still think that I am called that weird half of the apprentice!"
As soon as the hunter had said this, the girl giggled, an effect he had not expected, and he struck while the iron was hot; "My surname is Hu Wanshan, I am a hunter, I have nothing to worry about at home, it can be said that I will move with my legs."
Hearing the hunter say his name, he also indirectly expressed that he was a bachelor, and he was originally a very sad and sad girl, but he had a good wish out of thin air, so she suppressed her uncomfortable mood, smiled and glanced at Hu Wanshan who was holding his arm, and secretly wondered in her heart, If, when I return home, I tell my parents and parents, I will bring you back an uncle, what will they think?
The two of them walked while talking, time passed really fast, and the woman no longer felt pain in her feet and neck, but she felt that it was very comfortable and effortless for the man to walk with his arms crossed, so she didn't bring it up that she could walk.
The mountain was not long, and the sun above their heads had just set west, and the two of them had already reached the top of the mountain.
On the mountain range, although there is no feeling of seeing the small mountains, it is also a unique scenery, behind the rolling mountains, under the feet are verdant trees, there will be occasional wild flowers swaying in the wind, the mountain wind blows, the branches are swaying, rustling, the weeds around them are about to disappear the two of them.
The mountains are beautiful, the mountains of her hometown are even more beautiful, and when she came to the top of the mountain, the girl's eyes lit up, because when she looked down the mountain, a familiar scene came into her eyes, and on the slope not far to the left, there were no trees, let alone weeds, but it was a large area of valley, and there was a family faintly along the bud valley.
Seeing the crops she was familiar with, the woman's heart was excited, but she was a little unsure about the faintly appearing family, there should be no one here, so she pointed to the family at the bottom of the mountain and said to Hu Wanshan hesitantly; "I seem to remember, this place should not be too far from my house, I look at the ditch at the foot of the mountain is very familiar, and after a ridge I can see a village, that village is called Zhou Village, not far from Zhou Village is our Mapo Ridge, but I think before I left home, there seems to be no family on the edge of the cropland."
Although the girl was a little unsure, when she saw the familiar scene under the mountain, she still seemed excited, she pulled out the arm that Hu Wanshan was marrying on her shoulder, and then put one arm around his waist, and freed one hand, pointing to the family under the mountain, and said what she had just said.
Seeing this, Hu Wanshan immediately asked contemplatively; "Do you want to walk a little longer and get us to get to your house in one go, or do you want to find a place to rest and drink some water before you leave?"
Hearing Hu Wanshan's words, the girl asked very strangely; "Brother Hu, don't you mean, aren't you tired, when I went up the mountain just now, but you helped me up, and now I am already weak in my limbs and weak."
The girl has already directly called the hunter Brother Hu, so the distance between the two people has been shortened all of a sudden, which is of course a good thing, at least, the two people have no sense of strangeness, and the girl has no need to be wary. However, for Hu Wanshan, he didn't want the distance between the two people to be closer, so he hurriedly followed the girl's words; "I am a poor hunter, I can say that I have no house, no land, and I am tired of running around all day, and I have long been used to it."
Unexpectedly, the girl didn't care when she heard Hu Wanshan's words, but suddenly asked; "Brother Hu, how old is this year?"
Hu Wanshan replied truthfully; "I'm exactly twenty-five years old."
When the girl heard this, she immediately added; "Sister, I'm exactly twenty years old this year, and you're five years older than me, what a coincidence."
