Chapter 209: Check-in
The old man was on crutches and looked at Su Wanxiang and the others.
The same goes for others, who have a warm gaze, especially the older ones.
"How many of you came in today?" The old man asked.
"Well, old man, you ...... Is it too? Xu Junru asked respectfully. When he saw this old man, he couldn't help but think of his grandfather, and his heart suddenly felt a sense of affection.
The old man nodded, touched his beard, and continued, "I should be the oldest person here, but I am not the first person to come here. He said as he pointed his cane at a man in his forties and fifties over there, and the man looked at them with a cold look in his eyes.
Su Wanxiang was a little nervous about his gaze, and felt that his eyes were very sharp, as if he could see through a person.
Xu Junru naturally pulled Su Wanxiang behind him, not wanting them to look at her again.
This is obviously a place where there are more wolves and less meat, and looking at the past, most of the women in them are dark-skinned and thin. Even the girls in the children are like that.
The men, however, were all fair-skinned and ruddy-complexed.
In such a situation, Su Wanxiang is a more dangerous existence in Xu Junru's heart.
Because Su Wanxiang is beautiful and delicate. He has fair skin and a plump and tall figure. He feared that the men would come and harass her.
"Judging by what you're wearing, you should be a rich and noble family over there. What is the relationship between the two of you? Now that you're here, forget where you used to be, because there's no going back.
They call me Lin Lao, I'm seventy-five now, and I was in my forties when I came here. The first man over there, he had been here since he was seven years old, and now he is fifty. He is the village head, his name is Bai Qishan, and the girl next to him is his granddaughter, Bai Lan, who is his only relative. Lin Lao said.
As soon as Su Wanxiang heard his words, her body softened, they hadn't been able to go out for so long, so ...... Tears of despair welled up in her eyes.
Chu Ruofan and Xu Junru immediately helped her up, and they were also prepared to not be able to get out, but now that this is really the case, they are also very sad in their hearts.
"We are all her husbands, thank you Lin Lao for introducing these to me. Because our lady is pregnant, all my hearts can't bear this matter, and I am out of shape for a while, please forgive me. Qi Fan looked at Lin Lao respectfully and said, he also understood the situation, so he thought that his statement was very convenient and safe for several of them. It just so happened that the children in Su Wanxiang's belly were also three.
Su Wanxiang couldn't hear what they were saying anymore, and leaned on Xu Junru's shoulder weakly, crying sadly.
"Hello, Chief Bai! I don't know if you can find us a place to live, we will live for the time being, and we will build a home of our own as soon as possible. Xu Junru looked at Bai Qishan and hoped that he could arrange a place for them to live.
If it's not too early today, if not, they might as well prepare for themselves.
"Come with me, there is a family that happens to be empty, and the house is empty, so go and live there. As for you, if you want to build a new one in the future, do whatever you want. Now that it's here, you've seen the situation in our village. We are also polyandry here, because there are very few women. The water and soil here don't seem to be suitable for women to survive. Usually we make a living by fishing, and there are some wild vegetables in the mountains, so we rely on this island for food anyway. Bai Qishan walked forward with his hands behind his back as he spoke, and the others followed him back.
Chu Ruofan and a few of them also followed behind them.
The villagers were still curious to look at them, but most of the people who were curious were born here, and those who came here were not curious about them.
But looking at their eyes, it seems that there should be a lot to ask them.
After walking for a while, Bai Qishan led them to the empty courtyard.
The courtyard is not particularly large, and there are three wooden houses in it, with a bedroom in the middle, one on either side for the kitchen and one for the dining room.
"You can stay here for the time being, you have just arrived here, so let's rest and calm down. I won't leave anyway, but we'll talk another day. The people in the village are very easy to get along with, and everyone lives on each other. Living on this island is not so easy. Bai Qishan thought of his son's death, and he became sad.
"Thank you, we get it." Xu Junru said respectfully.
Bai Qishan left their courtyard with the others, leaving Su Wanxiang and a few of them sitting there.
"I'm sure Ziyan will come." Xu Junru comforted, he hoped that Su Wanxiang would not be so sad.
"Brother Junru, they will never be able to go out again when they come, I hope they don't come......" Su Wanxiang felt that they were still suitable for the outside world, because there were many people out there who needed them.
Looking at the three men in front of him, they were also so good.
"Brother Junru, Ruofan, Qi Fan, I'm sorry, I can't get out. You should also develop in the vast world outside, but now you want to live here with me for the rest of your life, I am sorry for you, it is I who have burdened you. She said that she was going to kneel, and she felt extremely guilty in her heart, especially Qi Fan, who was still the crown prince and the future prince.
Xu Junru also has his own marriage contract, and he got married in less than half a year.
Chu Ruofan, he is a chic and casual person, but now he is imprisoned here.
"Bang Xiang, don't be like this, we said, we are willing to accompany you." Xu Junru held her up in distress and hugged her body.
"Brother Junru, you are already a person who is about to get married, if it weren't for me, how could you suffer here. I know that you really want to get married, and you also want to have a happy life, and now I have ruined them.
Qi Fan is the crown prince, he has experienced so much, and now he is safe, but he is also affected by me. He did not suffer it in vain? If Fan is the same, he should belong to the vast world, but he can only be imprisoned on this isolated island. Su Wanxiang said crying, the more she talked, the more sad she became, tears and snot, and Xu Junru shouldered.
It was the first time she had lost her temper like this, and she had endured it before, controlling her emotions. But now, she felt like she couldn't control it anymore.
The three of them just looked at her and listened to her cry, and they knew that if they didn't let her go, she would be sick.
Su Wanxiang was tired from crying, and her emotions slowly calmed down.
Xu Junru saw that her mood calmed down, he sat beside her, and said in a gentle tone, "Bang Xiang, I don't look forward to going back to get married, because the person I want to marry is not the woman I love."
On the contrary, now, you by my side are the ones who make me feel the happiest. I am very grateful for this opportunity given to me by God. After all these years, you really can't feel my heart? Every time I carry you on the sedan chair, the envy and jealousy in my heart make me crazy inside.
If it hadn't happened, I don't think I would have had the courage to say this to you. Will you accept me? ”
